[QUOTE="FireDragon76, post: 73245133, member: 330042"] They didn't understand that the protagonist was never meant to be a hero. This film is not a hagiography, and it's sort of the opposite of "prosperity theology". It's a meditation on God's presence in a horrible situation. As a Lutheran it really resonates with me, and people from the Lutheran or Reformed tradition probably stand the best chance of getting what this film is really about. It also appealed to me because just like Shusaku Endo, the author of the novel it was based on, I am a bit of an uneasy convert that in many ways is more like a spiritual orphan, and this film is really exploring who Christ is for people who are "on the margins".
