The Searching Generation is a documentary film about two generations: Generation X and Millennials. Its provocative yet contemplative tone seeks to open a dialogue between traditional religious communities and the emergent generation. The filmmakers explore the same questions among twenty-somethings of Europe and the U.S., as well as among experts in spirituality, art, film and music. Included are interviews with best-selling authors Brian McLaren and Erwin McManus, writer Lauren Winner, musician Derek Webb, screenwriter Craig Detweiler, and music producer Mark Joseph. The program provides a valuable foundation for starting a spiritual dialogue with today's young people. Among the questions explored are: - What is important to these groups?
- Where are the common misunderstandings about them?
- How do they shape their values?
- What language do they speak?
- How do they describe themselves?
- What is spirituality to these generations, and why do they struggle to find their place in the religious communities of today?
