Film Reveals Practice of “Quarantined Faith” in Rome, Italy

Dr. Jenn Lindsay has produced a film, Quarantined Faith: Rome, Religion and Coronavirus, documenting the story of quarantined Easter, Passover, and Ramadan this past spring. The film includes interviews with Catholic, Protestant, Muslim, and Jewish religious leaders who described how their communities kept their traditions in new ways during the pandemic. Lindsay’s goal is to show how these people “maintain resilience and connectedness, and how the crisis has called them to draw more deeply on their spiritual resources.” Lindsay received her PhD from Boston University’s Graduate Division of Religious Studies.
