About this episode

The episode discusses Ingmar Bergman's 1961 film 'Through a Glass Darkly' and the theme of God's hiddenness.

Featuring a couple of rather obscure symbols and plot points that films discussed in previous weeks have also used, Ingmar Bergman's 1961 existential drama is at the centre of today's conversation as we contemplate the concept of God's hiddenness. We also briefly discuss: The Exorcist (1973) Contact us via email at contact@jimmybernasconi.com
