In the Jubilee year 2000 the monks of Norcia breathed new life
into the birthplace of St Benedict. Armed with only their faith and
zeal they founded a monastic community which has been attracting men
from all over the world to follow St. Benedict's ancient Rule. Many
of their friends have long wanted an insight into the inner workings
of their life and so they have produced this high quality up to date
film which shows the monks as they go through the daily ora et
labora.
The title of the film, Quaerere Deum, means to Seek God. This is
the true calling of all monks, the first and most essential quality
of an authentic monastic vocation, as laid out in the Rule of our
Holy Father St. Benedict.
