Looking for Lars is a 2029 Urcean documentary film directed by Marcos Gian, a Urcean filmmaker. Gian's film explores the search for Saint Lars, a purported 15th century Christian missionary to Varshan. The film establishes a basic history of early Christianity in Varshan, explores the possible identity of Lars based on contemporary Caphiric and Levantine records, speculates as to his life and origin, and documents an archaeological search for his remains and the village mentioned in a 1497 letter.

The film was particularly noteworthy in the historical community as the crew and its associated archaeological team actually uncovered the remains of a 15th century Occidental in Varshan that can be concluded to likely be the individual mentioned in the historical record. Significant positive publicity in the academic community about the film, combined with high production values, lead critics and audiences alike to praise the film. It was the best grossing documentary film in Urcea in the 2020s.
