Movie Screening "The Brand New Testament"

God exists. But not quite as we imagined him. Jaco Van Dormael's paradoxical comedy about a girl named Ea, who tells everything important about herself and the world in her very first line: "God exists. He lives in Brussels, and he is a scoundrel. You've heard a lot about his son, but nothing about his daughter. His daughter is me."

The next plot is the story of Ea's arrival in the world, which she firmly resolved to change for the better by performing a few miracles. A necessary, useful, strange, sharp, ambiguous, complex, sexual, life-affirming, blasphemous, foolish, and unusual film that is kind to people and extremely aggressive towards God.

The director's area of interest, who also directed "The Brand New Testament," includes the theory of the Multiverse, which suggests the simultaneous existence of alternative universes. Van Dormael also communicated with Nobel laureate in physics Ilya Prigogine, exploring the phenomenon of chaos and the physics of time.
