Sinopse
“Em Busca de Sentido” conta a história de Marc e Nathanaël, dois amigos de infância que decidiram largar tudo para iniciar uma jornada em busca da solução dos questionamentos sobre os caminhos do mundo. Ao encontrarem com filósofos, professores, militantes ecologistas e guardiões de culturas antigas, a jornada dos jovens pelos continentes serviu para que eles repensassem sua relação com a natureza, com a felicidade e com o sentido da vida – uma busca que transmite confiança na nossa habilidade de gerar mudança no mundo começando por nós próprios.

========

In our upcoming meetup we will show the documentary "A Quest for Meaning" (narrated in French with subtitles in Portuguese). After the film we'll discuss the director's main points and see how we can apply them to our reality.

Synopsis
"A Quest for Meaning" tells the story of a road-trip undertaken by two childhood friends looking to understand the causes of the world’s crises and to find a way to bring about change. Through the words of activists, biologists, philosophers, or guardians of ancestral traditions, Marc de la Ménardière and Nathanael Coste invite us along on their questioning of the world, and present us with alternatives that are already building the world of tomorrow. An inspiring, life-changing journey that renews our confidence in our capacity to bring about change, within ourselves and within society.

Director's Statement
The documentary project "A Quest for Meaning" stems from the growing realization, among citizens across the world, that Western society is trapped in a downward cycle leading us to destruction, injustice and frustration rather than harmony and well-being. The pressing need for financial profit has taken over, to the detriment of the common good, and of common sense.

To get out of this downward spiral, it’s not more knowledge, more technology, or more economic growth that we need. What we need is more common sense and more insight - in a word, more wisdom.

When we bring conviction and selflessness to our goals, we are bound to get results. Each one of us can go after his or her dreams in their own way and discover what “makes them tick”. We make a lot of choices based on fear and conformity. School prepares us for a life in little boxes but doesn’t care enough about who we really are.

A good opportunity to assess the situation and reconnect with our inner selves so we can understand what happiness really means.
