Plot summary

A group of Trappist monks reside in the monastery of Tibhirine in Algeria, where they live in harmony with the largely Muslim population. When a bloody conflict between Algeria's army and Muslim Jihadi insurgents disrupts the peace, they are forced to consider fleeing the monastery and deserting the villagers they have ministered to. In the face of deadly violence, the monks wrestle with their faith and their convictions.

Humble. Reflective. Unfolds slowly like a solid examination

Humble. Reflective. Unfolds slowly like a solid examination of conscience. The ‘last supper’ scene is cinematic brilliance as the camera catches every nuance of pained emotion in their bodies, their faces, and ultimately their eyes. A perfect ‘what would I do if that were me’ movie with so many possible modern-day, faith-related scenarios.

1001 movies to see before you die (Added 2011; Removed 2014). I saw this because my Catholic friend said it was his favorite movie. For me, I did appreciate its slow method to expose the viewer to monastery life and then contrast it with the Algier culture. It highlighted the importance of Monks and their commitment to their religious teachings, but it was not one that kept my interest. The cast was good though, bringing in some popular actors. It was an STG DVD.
