Great Russian documentary about the life of Fr Seraphim Rose just got English subtitles!!!
In the late 1960s, in California, near the small town of Platina, where gold miners had formerly worked, an American named Eugene Rose and Herman Podmoshensky founded an Orthodox monastery.
Doing without electricity, plumbing, telephones, and other benefits of civilization, these brothers decided to intentionally experience monastic life in the wilderness. From collapsed huts left by pioneers, the monastic cells of pioneering monks have been built. The monastery is still flourishing to this day.
