Gaspésie Seeks African Priest

In a small church in the Gaspé countryside, an African priest presides over the congregation of a few elderly people. Despite their apparent differences, the Gaspésiens and their African priests have one thing in common: their Catholic faith. And this starting point provides for intriguing encounters.

The documentary captures the reality of a region in full transformation and offers a reflection on religion, immigration and rurality in our changing world.
