Of Gods and Men

Eight Cistercians have established a monastery on North African soil and have been living peacefully with the local Muslims. But the peaceful life was disrupted by a sudden murder, a group of foreign workers were killed locally, and the Cistercian began to face the suspicion and resentment of the local residents. The army tried to strengthen the protection of the monastery, but was rejected by the believers. Just then, a group of fundamentalists visited and claimed responsibility for the massacre. . This small group of Cistercian monks will bravely defend their beliefs.
About the film
"Man and God" based on true events: on the night of March 26-27, 1996, in the Christian monastery of Tibhirine, Algeria, seven monks fought in the Algerian civil war. When they were kidnapped, their bodies were found on May 21, more than two months after the kidnapping. They live in harmony with their Islamic neighbors, why did they suffer this misfortune? The film does not directly describe the whole process of the incident, but restores the uneasy atmosphere that shrouded the Tiberium monastery from the end of 1993 to March 1996.

    It's not enough to have faith, you also need a good voice. . .

Of Gods and Men quotes

  • Christian: [Voice-over] Should it ever befall me, and it could happen today, to be a victim of the terrorism swallowing up all foreigners here, I would like my community, my church, my family, to remember that my life was given to God and to this country. That the Unique Master of all life was no stranger to this brutal departure. And that my death is the same as so many other violent ones, consigned to the apathy of oblivion. I've lived enough to know, I am complicit in the evil that, alas, prevails over the world and the evil that will smite me blindly. I could never desire such a death. I could never feel gladdened that these people I love be accused randomly of my murder. I know the contempt felt for people here, indiscriminately. And I know how Islam is distorted by certain Islamism. This country, and Islam, for me are something different. They're a body and a soul. My death, of course, will quickly vindicate those who call me naïve or idealistic, but they must know that I will be freed of a burning curiosity and, God willing, will immerse my gaze in the Father's and contemplate with him his children of Islam as he sees them. This thank you which encompasses my entire life includes you, of course, friends of yesterday and today, and you too, friend of the last minute, who knew not what you were doing. Yes, to you as well I address this thank you and this farewell which you envisaged. May we meet again, happy thieves in Paradise, if it pleases God the Father of us both. Amen. Insha'Allah.

  • Christian: We are martyrs out of love, out of fidelity. If death overtake us, despite ourselves, because up to the end, up to the end we'll try to avoid it. Our mission here is to be brothers to all. Remember that love is eternal hope. Love endures everything.
