Of Gods and Men
Based on a true story. Eight
French Trappist monks live in
harmony with their Muslim
brothers in a monastery
perched in the mountains
of North Africa in the 1990s.
When a massacre is perpetrated
by Islamic terrorists,
fear sweeps though the region.
Should the monks stay despite
the threat of violent death?
The answer to that question
forms the uncompromising center of this unforgettable
film. The stellar cast is headed by Lambert
Wilson and legendary French character actor Michael
Lonsdale. Parental discretion suggested: brief graphic violence
and a single obscene expression. Blu-Ray/DVD combo
includes special features.
