Directing this film and traveling to present  it made me see the importance of this medium, not only as support to discussions on religion and faith, but more so as a theological act in itself; the creative process can become a hermeneutic space capable of inspiring theologians as much as theology students in their way of understanding and practising theology.  The film has allowed me to envisage the characteristics of a discourse about God creatively, nourished by life in the Spirit and led back to the Spirit.  In a world where image is so important, film is a theologian’s privileged partner . It enriches my reflections and increases their reach in the larger community, to a more diverse and larger audience;  since May 2017, I have presented the film in many countries and cities to more than 1300 people; in Strasbourg, in June 2019, 215 people  were present for a projection organised by the Diocese of Strasbourg during the annual meeting ‘Rendez-vous avec les religions’.   The film was also presented and appreciated in many universities :  Monash University (Australie), Australian Catholic University (Australie), Université de Bretagne Occidentale (France), American Academy of Religion (Film Series, Boston), Saint Paul University, Institut Catholique de Paris (France), University of South Africa (Afrique du Sud), Banaras Hindu University (Inde).  Film-making  allows for an esthetic  approach for the theologian  to reconnect his discourse to a spiritual and experiential dimension, to move from a purely rational theology to a contemplative theology. Even if the latter can still be discursive, it evolves in ‘the light of a certain perception, already mystical, of the Absolute’  (Malévez).
