This paper is the result of my efforts for a Religious Studies master course on conversion. My intention has been to combine theoretical reflections on conversion [‘can you also convert to secularity?’] with a textual & formal analysis of a specific film (Kreuzweg, or Stations of the Cross, Dietrich Brüggemann, 2014). I argue that this film perpetuates a rigid binary between ‘the religious’ and ‘the secular’ and I question the ideological implications underneath.

Tom, please sign up for another Magnolia or Eyes Wide Shut before it's not only Jack Reacher who can never go back.

I wrote an extensive (English) essay, in which I present my (allegorical) interpretation of mother!.

This is one of my favorite movies of the year.
