Film: What does it mean to forgive someone?
Details
What does it mean to forgive someone for something they did in the past, and what does it require of the forgiver? Let’s watch and then discuss a recent film that addresses the psychological complexity and difficulty of doing this.
Exhibiting Forgiveness is a 2024 American independent drama film written and directed by Titus Kaphar, who is an American contemporary painter and filmmaker. The film stars André Holland.
"André Holland lays himself bare in a characteristically wonderful performance in this vivid portrait of a family coming to terms with the past.”
“An emotionally wrenching drama set to resonate with those who have also had to confront the complicated equation of radical forgiveness.”
