Macedonia Mon Amour

About this title

From Saint Paul to Mother Teresa, this film traces Christian life in Macedonia from the days of the late antique period, through the medieval Ohrid theological school and monastic life, to the meaning of Christianity in the lives of the young Macedonian generation of today. Journeys through archeological sites, Mother Teresa’s birthplace of Skopje, and Orthodox and Roman-Catholic cloisters unite detail and memory to form a meditative portrait of the diversity of Macedonia’s civilizations and cultural influences.
