Belonging
The Search for Acceptance
Windborne Productions; Karen Pascal, producer
“When we make others know they’re welcome and that they belong then we know we all belong.”— Jean Vanier
(DVD; Windborne Productions, 2002; Running time: 50 min.) This video is a profound, penetrating and timely essay spoken from the heart of Jean Vanier, truly one of the great spiritual leaders and modern day philosophers. Vanier’s prophetic counter-culture ideas weave together a panorama of humanity in the 21st century. Drawn from the stories of real lives, from the ordinary and the extraordinary, Belonging; The Search for Acceptance celebrates the dignity and diversity of humanity and identifies that which unites us—our aloneness and our desire to belong. Issues examined in the film include bullying, the challenges facing refugees and immigrants, welcoming interfaith diversity and inclusion. The Discussion (chaptered) Version has been specially formatted to be easily presentable in each of its six parts. A downloadable adult discussion guide booklet may be accessed by clicking here. A more comprehensive 40-page high school curriculum study guide is also available. Please review the Video section homepage.

Standard DVD Format   $24.95*
Chaptered DVD Format   $32.95* (aka Discussion Version)
