Kirkebio returns for the autumn season with Joshua Marston's 2004 drama Maria Full of Grace. The film follows 17-year-old Maria, who lives in poverty in Colombia and sees no way out of her stuck situation. When she is offered a risky job as a drug courier, she makes a decision with far-reaching consequences. It is an intense and moving story about hope, courage and human dignity, and about the hard choices people are sometimes pushed into.
Theology student Berit Sonne Amhild introduces the film, and there is time afterwards to talk about what made an impression. Some snacks and drinks are served during the screening.
