- The film immerses viewers into the secluded monastic life of a Holy Mount Athos monastery, portraying its authentic characters, everyday rituals, and the monastics' unique way of life within their thriving 21st-century community.
- This film is an immersion into the life of one of the monasteries of Holy Mount Athos. Secluded monastic life full of authentic characters and everyday saints comes forth onto the screen from under the wraps of our mundane priorities. What emerges is a fascinating account of a completely unparalleled way of life within a thriving monastic community in the midst of the twenty-first century.
- It takes place in an ancient monastic hermitage - Dohiariu, located on the west coast of Mount Athos, a peninsula in the Aegean Sea declared an Autonomous Monastic Republic and exclusively used by Eastern Orthodox monasticism. The phenomena of nature intertwine harmoniously in the continuous cycle of work and prayer, aligning themselves in a rhythmic relationship between man and nature, thus hinting at the heaven for which we all yearn from the depths of our souls. But the gem of this splendid Byzantine landscape is the monks themselves, whose warmth and authenticity have been captured by pulling back the curtain that shrouds the daily monastic life, where each one has their own joys, hopes, and weaknesses. By inviting the film's producers into their environment, the monks hope to stir in each viewer the memory of their own environment. The protagonist of the film is the abbot of the monastery - Abbot Gregory, whose accumulated spiritual experience has endowed him with profound knowledge of the human soul and its longing to return to the state of Adam's human nature before the fall into sin.—AscorIasi
