From Heritage Space:

Come join a screening of the French documentary film “A quest for meaning”.

About the film:

Questions about the meaning of life often make us wonder about our ability to understand and sympathize with people and things different from us. Is life meaningful in itself and we are looking for that meaning, or is it boring and we are giving it meaning with our lives?

Questions, about anything, often lead us to a journey – maybe in thoughts, or actual trips. “A quest for meaning” tells the story of Marc and Nathanael, two childhood friends, embarking on a journey of finding the meaning of life together. They travel in 6 months through 3 continents and conduct 29 interviews with people they meet on the way.

The film does not give audience answers to the questions about the meaning of life, but continues to raise questions about living, existence, and the self. It might be an interesting meeting point – or a reflective conversation – for audiences.
