Overview
This film tells the story of Antoine, a miner from the Liège region who, at the end of the 19th century, discovers a gift for healing, an ability to listen and to soothe the suffering of the working class who endure a hard life. A good man, he went on to found the one and only Belgian religion that has never existed: Antoinism. This documentary film traces the astonishing life of Louis Antoine and the incredible development of a social and religious movement that has been forgotten in Belgian history. A movement that nevertheless had hundreds of thousands of followers in Wallonia, France and as far afield as Brazil, to the point of threatening the power of the Catholic Church in our regions.
