DESCRIPTION:

It is the darkest days of World War II. Bombs are falling on Monte Cassino, the hilltop abbey founded centuries ago by Saint Benedict of Nursia. Despite its status as a sacred site, Allied forces have become convinced that the Italian monastery is being used by the Nazis as an observation post. As death rains down from above, the head friar reminds his fellows how their founder, Saint Benedict, faced wars, ruin, and untold misery in his time. In 500 AD, Benedict, then a Roman nobleman, grew weary of the decadence he saw all around him. Foreseeing the fall of the Roman Empire, he retreated to a solitary cave, slowly bringing a small order of monks to his side. Years later he emerges from his seclusion to a world ravaged by war and death, setting forth a Gospel that will help restore Western civilization. This inspirational film tells the amazing story of Saint Benedict's journey.
