The Invisible Fight (Nähtamatu võitlus)

Celebrating 20 years of bold and fabulous auteur cinema by Homeless Bob Production. We will continue our retrospective and the Christmas month with Rainer Sarnet's "The Invisible Fight". 

A guard on the Soviet-Chinese border who, after surviving a deadly attack, decides to become a monk but must continually prove along the way that he's capable of becoming the enlightened man he set out to be. Nähtamatu võitlus (The Invisible Fight) is a kung-fu comedy set in an Orthodox Monastery in 1970s Soviet Union. 

Rainer Sarnet: "Humour and sanctity. Black Sabbath and Gregorian chants. Rebellion and humility. The film binds these elements together like an orthodox iourodivy singing, an earnestly silly song of worship that extols anything can be holy."
