The Divine is a poetic exploration of the wind as a spiritual force, carrying ideas and faith across civilisations. It has whispered through the teachings of Plato, guided Saint Benedict’s Rule, and borne witness to the Cathars’ final stand. From ancient Greece to medieval Europe, to modern science’s Gaia hypothesis, the wind has remained a symbol of life and transcendence.
Through breathtaking landscapes—from Sicily to the deserts and the south of France—this film traces humanity’s deep connection with the divine breath that sustains the world. A meditation on faith, history, and our fragile planet.
