Cross-listed with RELS319G. How does religion make itself felt within cinema, the most modern of expressive media? And how does a critical perspective informed by religion affect an understanding of cinema? In this course, we will ask questions about how cinema renders religious stories and spirituality across a wide range of films about various religious traditions. What is the relation between cinematic aesthetics and religious experience?
