The movie tells the captivating story of a monastery, destroyed by the communist regime, as seen by a young monk, Father Nikanor. He used to be a successful broker working at the American NASDAQ stock market, he traded with securities on Wall Street and he worked at the Caroll Financial Services. He has taken the vows not to become a hermit, rather to save his soul and entertain people’s hope. He established a committee on the rebuilding of the monastery and was co-financed under the European SAPARD programme to breed water buffalo. He also developed an organic farm. The monastery of the Holy Martyrs and Unmercenary Healers Cosma and Damian rose from the ashes thanks to his heroic efforts. The rebuilding and the reconstruction of the monastery is happening right in front of our eyes like some kind of a miracle.
