While we rarely dedicate an episode to a single movie, this film is a special exception.
"El Tonto Por Cristo" is told through luminous vignettes, following a brotherhood of monks on the Texas Gulf as they strive for sainthood while grappling with their human struggles. Inspired by the ancient tradition of the Holy Fool and set within the quiet rhythms of monastic life, it stands as the first English-language Orthodox narrative feature of its kind. The film masterfully weaves Orthodox imagination into a transcendent meditation on holiness and humanity.
We are incredibly blessed to have the film's writer and director, Josh Jordan, join us for this episode. We delve into his journey to Orthodoxy, his inspirations for the film, and much more.
