  • Pressbook “God's Not Dead 2”
    PRESSBOOK “GOD’S NOT DEAD 2” Quanto sei disposto a rischiare per difendere quello in cui credi? PREMESSA Secondo quale criterio si stabilisce quali argomenti possano essere affrontati pubblicamente e quali debbano invece essere discussi in forma esclusivamente privata? In cosa consistono la libertà di espressione e di parola? Fino a che punto il diritto a difendere i propri valori non invade la sfera di libertà altrui? Quando i fatti storici cessano di essere tali a causa dell’orientamento ideologico di un’élite e si resta soli a sostenere quello che si ritiene essere una verità oggettiva, fino a che punto si è disposti a difendere il proprio pensiero, anche a costo di compromettere la propria vita privata e professionale? E’ questo incipit di GOD’S NOT DEAD 2, il nuovo legal thriller distribuito da Dominus Production, al cinema dal 2 Marzo 2017. GOD’S NOT DEAD 2, ambientato in una corte di giustizia statunitense, è ispirato ad una causa legale reale e affronta il delicato tema della difesa del diritto alla libertà di espressione e di opinione, mostrando un quadro di insidiosa discriminazione ideologica subita dai cristiani nella società contemporanea. Il film evidenzia, inoltre, il pericolo di ideologizzazione dei canali comunicazione con la conseguente deformazione non solo delle informazioni ma anche degli accadimenti storici. Missione del film è invitare lo spettatore ad interrogarsi sui grandi valori dell’esistenza, arrivando a domandarci: quanto siamo disposti a rischiare per difendere ciò in cui crediamo? La storicità di Gesù Cristo – illustrata da Grace Wesley agli alunni della sua classe di liceo – diventa argomento centrale della causa legale che vede la docente, cristiana, accusata di aver violato la separazione fra Stato e Chiesa.
