Oh, Holy is a programme that shines a light on the act of finding joy and invites you to consider your place within the realms of spirituality and religion.
Faith takes many forms, in unlimited individual narratives across the world. This curated series of shorts tells the stories of these convictions through a constellation of narratives and perspectives. Whether it’s the human relationships that sustain us, a spiritual experience after tragedy or a simple piece of wood, through these films we explore the roots of happiness, transformation and meaning that exist inside all of us.
Together we will question what being spiritual means to us as individuals through these stories of people challenging convention. Join us in a moment of joy.
Programmed in collaboration with London College of Communication.
