Nowadays, everyone can invent their own religion or philosophy if only they have the time and the imagination ?? And when one has reached the bottom, this may seem like a good idea.
Soon after Mila, unemployed single mother and all-round loser, starts sampling spirituality on offer in contemporary society (from traditional Catholicism to self-proclaimed new-age gurus), she finds herself at the head of a brand new, outrageously successful sect worshipping the God Child. The idea is simple and appealing: our world was created by the God Child who is still learning and that is why things do not always work out as they should ?? but we are learning together with Him. This seems to be IT. But ?? things do not work out exactly as they should for Mila ??
Insightful, disturbing and hilarious.
