To survey spirituality’s role in everyday lives, Oscar-winning documentarian Thomas Lennon commissioned more than 40 filmmakers across the globe to capture ceremonial expressions of faith. The end result is “Sacred,” a travelogue that celebrates humans’ search for meaning. 

The Huffington Post has an exclusive clip from the documentary, which opens Friday in limited release. This particular snapshot focuses on weddings in China, Kenya, the Netherlands, Lebanon and the U.S. The rituals are different in each, but participants’ joy doesn’t falter.
