Five wheelchairs for Egypte

For two years, five young adults affected by Cerebral Palsy (CP) have followed the crew of the sailboat Kifouine during their sail around the world tour through daily mail exchanges. Until they themselves felt ready to break the moorings and take up the challenge to join the sailors. They spent two weeks on board the Kifouine in Egypte. An exceptional experience that has, in many ways, changed their way to look at things, and the way they’re being looked at…

 

 

Kifouine, a united world tour

It is an extraordinary human adventure, a world tour in the sail, that began Brice, Eric and Hervé aboard Kifouine, a small 8.6 metre sailboat not openly conceived for the long navigation. They shared with 45 young adults with cerebral-motor disability who dreamed too to release ropes.

From a bank to another one

This film proposes us a juxtaposed route of two priests: a Vietnamese Father who after 9 years of training in Paris decides to return in Vietnam and a young French deacon of the Missions Etrangères de Paris who decides to leave for China, after his ordination.

Their crossed routes allow to approach the subjects relative to the intercultural dialogue East/ West, notably that of the transmission of the evangelic message.

Ad Vitam The grand adventure of the Paris Foreign Missions Society in Asia

Since the 17th century, the Paris Foreign Missions Society (MEP) has been sending priests to the Far East, both Asian and the Indian sub-content, in the name of the gospel.

From generation to generation, the Society’s missionaries have taken part in an amazing adventure: a human, cultural and religious journey that gave birth to the churches of Asia.

Today, and amid widely varying socio-political and religious contexts – both Buddhist and Confucian countries, industrialized and developing nations – the Society’s priests carry on with the work of the first missionaries, started 350 years ago: as the bearers of the good news, clearing the way into new territories, as spiritual instructors and through communal involvement, they are writing the story of the universal church in Asia.
