“1000 years Witness of the Light” – documentary film about the Bigorski Monastery
Every thousand years a rare flower blossoms at the Bigorski Monastery, testifying of another kind of beauty – not of this world. This is that exact beauty, that element, the fifth one, which is the very essence and meaning of the well-known four elements. It is that same thing which many enlightened and wise philosophers placed in the centre, as the essential meaning of enlightenment, therefore confirming that “Beauty will save the world”.
This film is about that particular “Beauty”, which has already saved the world once…
„The Witness of the Light” transcends, setting up a foundation for a very different documentary approach towards the Bigorski Monastery. Until now, we were used to, mainly, the reportage aspect of it. This film opens a prospective for originality, authenticity, proximity, and experience. It is in coherence with the tradition and the narrative, but still offers something new and original, something of its own. Without these things the film remains closed in its horizon or flat.
