Country of origin
Germany

Lisa Hacker (*1992) is now serving in her third congregation at Regensburg. After studying theology in Neuendettelsau, Berlin and Heidelberg, she worked as a pastor in very different areas: at the edge of Augsburg City and in a small town in Bavaria Forest. Internships in Kenia and the USA enriched her understanding of different christian communities around the world. "Movies can bring us to different cultures, countries and personal struggles. The great questions of humanity can be shown in Films in a unique way. I'm especially interested in the specific and hidden religious topics that are discussed in movies."
