The twenty-minute documentary was filmed in the Macedonian monasteries “St. John the Baptist”, known as the Bigorski Monastery and in the women’s monastery “St. George the Victorious” in Rajčica, near Debar. The term “metoch” means property owned by a monastery, and the monastery in Rajčica, where most of the film was filmed, is a metoch of the Bigorski Monastery. The film shows part of the everyday life of the Macedonian monastic community and the motives that inspired some of its members to make the decision to become monks. “Metoch” talks about joy, simplicity and love for God.
