Ulrich Seidl`s (DOG DAYS, ANIMAL LOVE) camera takes confession in his coolly removed documentary, a fascinating look at the inner workings of six devout Catholics. Shot in various churches in the director`s native Austria, the film dispenses with interviews and consists of static shots of religious people speaking to the camera as if it were God. Their prayers offer insight into their deepest fears and concerns, while the lack of response intimates the filmmaker`s implicit question: is anybody listening? A woman laments her husband`s affair, while another discusses her Pakistani husband`s television habits, and a teenage boy reveals his sexual fantasies about Biblical stories. True to form, Seidl highlights the oddities located within the average soul, but his treatment is ever so slightly more compassionate than in his previous work.

This visually stunning, color-saturated film reconstructs the story of Guadalupe and her role in ameliorating the violent chaos of the 16th century Aztec Empire.
