Product Description

Product Description

A look inside the quiet life of the Grande Chartreuse Monastery in the French Alps.

Review

"One of the transporting film experiences of this or any other year." --Boston Globe

"The silence captured in this documentary -- a meditative look at life in the Carthusian monastery of the Grande Chartreuse in the French Alps -- may be the most eloquent you'll ever hear. " --San Francisco Chronicle - Walter Addiego

I hesitate, given the early date and the project's modesty, to call Into Great Silence one of the best films of the year. I prefer to think of it as the antidote to all of the others. --A.O. Scott - New York Times
