Orthodox movie showing in Detroit this Thursday, Nov. 9
DETROIT, MI [COCC] -- "Becoming Truly Human" — a documentary film that shares the faith journeys of eight Millennials — will play in 11 cities across the country this week, including here in Detroit on Thursday evening, November 9.
Supported by the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America and Ancient Faith Ministries and directed by Nathan Jacobs, “Becoming Truly Human” looks at the rise of the “nones”—those with no religious affiliation. Recent surveys indicate that 25% of the US population falls into this category, garnering enthusiasm from atheists and concern from religious leaders and groups. The film delves into the faith journeys of eight “nones”—one of whom embraces Orthodox Christianity—thereby reframing the “nones” as people defined not by unaffiliation, but by their search for something deeper than the religions of their youth. (See trailer below)
The movie will be shown at Cinema Detroit (4126 Third Street, Detroit MI 48201) beginning at 7:00 PM.
The COCC has reserved a block of 35 tickets at $12.00 each. Please contact Olga at (248) 252-8184 to reserve your tickets today.
