Warrior monks, former martial arts champions, live in isolation in an Italian monastery. For 20 years they have been preparing through prayer and demanding training for a “higher war,” in which they want to fight evil in the name of the Father. A poetic emotional journey in an unknown world. A film to investigate the profound motivations for a radical choice, the reasons for devotion.
