Episodes Notes

From the Sistine Chapel to da Vinci’s The Last Supper, fresco paintings are one of the oldest and most durable forms of artwork known to man.

At the intersection of faith and art, Theirs is the Kingdom is a feature-length documentary directed by Christopher Zaluski, that follows the rare creation of a contemporary fresco mural inside the sanctuary of a small church in Asheville, NC. 

This fresco is a painting not of the rich and powerful but of people battling homelessness, addiction, and mental illness.  

Today on Connections, Christopher Zaluski shares why he decided to create this documentary. He also shares how this project changed his mindset and approach to filmmaking, community, and religion.
