Of Gods and Men

Of Gods and Men

From a political point of view, since it was filmed by colonial France, we saw that this film blurred the political background of the colony’s resistance to French colonization, focusing on the extreme religious beliefs of Muslims and the cross-religious and fast-racial love of French missionaries.
From a religious perspective, French missionaries ignore their French identity, and naively hope to obscure their political stance, share hardships with the colonized people, and use religion to influence everyone.

In the film, the doctor reads a passage: Human beings only do evil things so thoroughly and happily when they are in the name of religion.
Change the "evil" in this sentence to "crazy"; it's okay to change "religion" to "belief". O(∩_∩)O
is a good shot, but I don’t like the concept of right and wrong and values ​​that I want to convey behind the film.

Of Gods and Men quotes

  • Christian: [Voice-over] Should it ever befall me, and it could happen today, to be a victim of the terrorism swallowing up all foreigners here, I would like my community, my church, my family, to remember that my life was given to God and to this country. That the Unique Master of all life was no stranger to this brutal departure. And that my death is the same as so many other violent ones, consigned to the apathy of oblivion. I've lived enough to know, I am complicit in the evil that, alas, prevails over the world and the evil that will smite me blindly. I could never desire such a death. I could never feel gladdened that these people I love be accused randomly of my murder. I know the contempt felt for people here, indiscriminately. And I know how Islam is distorted by certain Islamism. This country, and Islam, for me are something different. They're a body and a soul. My death, of course, will quickly vindicate those who call me naïve or idealistic, but they must know that I will be freed of a burning curiosity and, God willing, will immerse my gaze in the Father's and contemplate with him his children of Islam as he sees them. This thank you which encompasses my entire life includes you, of course, friends of yesterday and today, and you too, friend of the last minute, who knew not what you were doing. Yes, to you as well I address this thank you and this farewell which you envisaged. May we meet again, happy thieves in Paradise, if it pleases God the Father of us both. Amen. Insha'Allah.

  • Christian: We are martyrs out of love, out of fidelity. If death overtake us, despite ourselves, because up to the end, up to the end we'll try to avoid it. Our mission here is to be brothers to all. Remember that love is eternal hope. Love endures everything.
