One year after the publication of the « Sauvé » report, what does it mean to be a student in a seminary? Does consecrating one’s life to God have the same meaning as before? At Notre-Dame-de-L’Espérance Seminary in Orleans, we immerse ourselves in the daily life of Maxence Caputo, 34, to document his personal and spiritual journey.
This series was awarded a « coup de cœur » by the ANI (Association Nationale des Iconographes), at the Visa pour l’Image festival in Perpignan.
