Athos

Athos

The Athos peninsula in Greece is one of Europe’s last secrets. Over 2000 monks live on Athos – cut off from the outside world. Access is denied to women, tourists are not welcome. Only workers and pilgrims can obtain a visa. The “Autonomous Monastic State of the Holy Mountain” attracts people who feel like they are missing something from their modern lives. With the help of three Athos monks, “Athos – A Taste of Heaven” tells the story of the island and its inhabitants in a unique filmed diary style. The film’s guiding theme is the path we as people have to find and follow – each and everyone for themselves. “First we must heal our own souls, only then we can help others”, is one of Father Galaktions core messages. He lives as a hermit on the holy mountain. Not all monks, however, live as secluded and demure as Father Galaktion. The film team is also received by Father Epiphanios – a gifted and poetic cook who certainly does not disdain the pleasures of life.
