  A Meditation On Life. A Contemplation Of Time. Silence Repetition Rhythm The Grande Chartreuse the mother house of the legendary Carthusian Order is based in the French Alps. Into Great Silence is the first film about life inside the Grande Chartreuse. Silence. Repitition. Rhythm. The film is an austere next to silent meditation on monastic life in a very pure form. No music except the chants in the monastery no interviews no commentaries no extra material. Changing of time seasons and the ever repeated elements of the day of the prayer. A film to become a monastery rather than depict one. A film about awareness absolute presence and the life of men who devote their lives to God.
