Cinema of Transformation

The course will view films that are, in very
different ways, centrally concerned with inner
life, faith/lack of faith, and various forms of
transformation. Although film is a visual medium,
and these films are without exception beautiful
and powerful visually, they point to experiences
which touch the deepest core of our invisible
spirit. We will view work by Tarkovsky, Bresson,
Parajanov, Cocteau, Bergmann...and many others.
The reading combines theoretical/critical texts,
fiction, and Jungian theory of transformation.

Additional seats may be available on Course
