okay, then the trick (AFAIK) is :
1. we need some scattering and density (this is the value that i use, but it doesn't have to be this way

2. a volumetric spot light, try to make the angle kinda narrow.
here's the one that i use

the "light" has to be on, because
3. you would want something to obstruct it, to give it the illusion of being filtered through something. in this one, it was the tree in front of it
4. the most iffy part is "slowly turn the volumetric light toward the camera until it looks a bit like what you want". so yeah, its actually falling into the camera. in this example its a bit of a perspective trick.
5. i'm not sure if my Graphic settings plays a part in this, but i did set them to have some bloom, and i use SMAA mode and 64 pixel light instead of the default 8 (i find this is very important because i use a lot of smaller spotlights)
that's all i know. i would love to know if there is another way of doing this, because i admit, its a very cool effect if it can be done without the perspective trick in this example, and opens up a lot of possibilities
thanks!
