They say with good reason that getting any film made is a small miracle… but some films are more miraculous than others. A program of works—by Wim Wenders, Glauber Rocha, Vittorio De Sica, Shôhei Imamura, and other powerhouse auteurs from all over the globe—in which the worlds of God(s), angels, and men intermingle, with spectacular (and, in some cases, sardonically anti-clerical) effects. Featuring dei ex machina and Buñuelian Bible stories you won’t remember from Sunday school, it’s nothing less than a blessing.
