- The thrilling story of the hermit of Mount Athos, Elder Joseph the Hesychast. The documentary describes his ascetic struggles in the most desolate parts of Mount Athos. The film is unique because the whole life of the hermit is dramatized with great accuracy and detail by Hollywood actor Jonathan Jackson (5 EMMY award winner). It is the first time that the cinematic lens has documented the hidden ascetic life of the monks of Mount Athos.
