Religious life has been one of the most powerful forces across Africa. Today, in a context of rapid modernization, many feel they can no longer answer the fundamental questions: Who are we, and where are we going?

FROM THE SOURCE OF THE SPRING weaves together stories from three African countries, demonstrating how the most challenging questions in society are, at their core, spiritual questions.

 Beautifully shot, poetic, and immersive, FROM THE SOURCE OF THE SPRING is a vivid and unexpected journey into African cosmology, theology, and traditional wisdom.

Spanning the landscapes of Ghana, Nigeria, and South Africa, this film explores how communities grapple with questions of livelihood, faith, and identity.

• In South Africa, fishing communities struggle to feed their families while preserving their ancient connection to the sea.

• In Nigeria, an entire nation navigates the realities of religious violence at the intersection of indigenous traditions, Christianity, and Islam.

• In Ghana, churches wrestle with the legacy of religious colonialism, turning to Traditional wisdom to forge a new narrative.

FROM THE SOURCE OF THE SPRING is a beautiful and poetic meditation on Africa’s past, present, and future.
