Yet the pilgrims are there and they are waiting. Through this philosophical fable, the film attempts to touch on a universal phenomenon : religious feeling. This feeling bonds together oneself to oneself, oneself to the world or oneself to the absolute, to eternity… The idea is not to praise religion (whichever it may be) but rather to attempt to reveal how religious feelings nest in each one of us …(Pressbook)
