What
happens when a community loses its power to imagine, create and pray? This
in-depth Documentary/Poem offers a new approach to this question.
It is a "video painting" of the urban San Fernando Cathedral holy week
services. Liturgy and public worship are explored in a new and natural
light: with anthropological roots and the Holy Spirit animating in a "non-verbal
way."
Featuring the work of the internationally
acclaimed theologian, Fr. Virgilio P. Elizondo, this new-style video locates
ritual in the basic elements of life: fire, water, our soul, our connection
to God. The power of the image is foremost in this production which features
haunting night photography. Luscious visual imagery by noted director,
Gerardo Rueda, (60-minutes, ABC Prime-Time Live) invites the viewer to
experience the wholistic and collective prayer moment of the San Fernando
Cathedral community - a universal message.
"This video does not just teach your
head, it touches your heart." Prepare yourself for a visual and spiritual
experience as you view this new-style production by Latinos exploring our
Catholic journey.
