📖 About the Film
Adapted from the novel by Daniel Hornsby, Via Negativa follows a young priest named Dan, who begins a surreal journey across America after the death of his estranged friend, Paul. Alongside a wounded coyote, he sets out to confront a priest tied to Paul’s past—encountering eccentric characters and deep existential questions along the way.
The film delves into themes of:
- ✝️ Faith and guilt
- 🌌 Spiritual crisis
- 🔍 Redemption and self-discovery
The title “Via Negativa” comes from a theological concept that explores God’s nature by understanding what God is not, rather than what God is.
