We're going to start intermingling our book discussions with movie discussions! Our first discussion will be on the recently released on DVD movie, Of Gods and Men. We've ordered a copy of the DVD that you'll be able to borrow if you like or feel to get a copy from somewhere else (Redbox has it right now - only $1 a day!). We'll be getting together to discuss the movie near the end of September - more details will be sent out later. If you're interested in participating please email fmcyainfo@gmail.com
Awarded Grand Prix honors at the 2010 Cannes Film Festival, this compelling historical drama relates the ordeal of seven French Trappist monks in the mountains of Algeria who are taken captive by Islamic fundamentalists. Before the monks' abduction, they have ample reason to believe they may be in danger, but their assumption that there can and must be common ground between Islam and Christianity leads them to remain at the monastery.
