About This Movie

So, there's this film about an archaeological painting in Egypt that gets pinched, and the monks involved really go out of their way to keep it under wraps. It's got this interesting tension between Father Maurice and Father Francis, which ties into their personal philosophies on life. The pacing is a bit deliberate, but it really lets you soak in the atmosphere of the setting. The performances have a kind of depth that speaks to their internal conflicts. What stands out is how it tackles themes of morality and tradition, all wrapped in a subtle, almost somber tone. Definitely one to think about long after the credits roll.

This film seems to be a bit elusive in terms of availability; not much has circulated since its original release. Collectors might find it intriguing due to its unique narrative and character dynamics. There’s definitely a sense of a cult following emerging, particularly among those who appreciate more obscure, thematically rich cinema.
