Synopsis

The Brand New Testament tells the story of Ea, a young girl who rebels against her oppressive father, God, by leaking the death dates of every individual on Earth. This revelation sets off a series of unpredictable events as people try to make sense of their predetermined fates. As Ea explores the world outside her father's control, she gathers six new apostles to help her write a new testament. Filled with dark humor and profound insights, this Belgian fantasy film explores themes of free will, existentialism, and the power of human connection. With stunning visuals and a thought-provoking storyline, The Brand New Testament challenges the very concept of divinity and offers a fresh perspective on spirituality.
