I wrote this book to challenge certain people. Who am I challenging? People who feel empty inside. Do you have anger within you and want to let it go? Are you filled with sadness but want to experience joy? Do you feel lost? Confused? Hopeless? Do you feel that life is pointless? Are you depressed? Do you feel like giving up?... If you answered yes to any of those questions, I challenge you to read this book. I'm confident my book can help you fill that emptiness that is presently inside of you and give you a new outlook on life.

The religious landscape in Europe is changing dramatically. While the authority of institutional religion has weakened, a growing number of people now desire individualized religious and spiritual experiences, finding the self-complacency of secularism unfulfilling. The "crisis of religion" is itself a form of religious life. A sense of complex, subterraneous interaction between religious, heterodox, secular and atheistic experiences has thus emerged, which makes the phenomenon all the more fascinating to study, and this is what Religion in Contemporary European Cinema does. The book explores the mutual influences, structural analogies, shared dilemmas, as well as the historical roots of such a "post-secular constellation" as seen through the lens of European cinema. Bringing together scholars from film theory and political science, ethics and philosophy of religion, philosophy of film and theology, this volume casts new light on the relationship between the religious and secular experience after the death of the death of God.
