“How am I supposed to act on your behalf if I can’t handle my own life?”

Have you ever felt like you were meant to do something? Like, *really* meant to do something. That relentless feeling of being pulled toward something is so mysterious and intoxicating, if you allow yourself to be led by it. It never takes a rest; it doesn’t let go. It can also be really damn scary to venture into the unknown, especially alone. In Jan Komasa’s Academy Award-nominated, slow burning and beautifully shot film, Corpus Christi, we follow young Daniel, who finds himself precisely in this situation.
