The story is based on three stories from the Orthodox spiritual heritage. The first story, "Unusual Obedience," was inspired by a parable from the ancient Paterik: do not be proud of praise and do not grumble when scolded. The second story - "Mute Prayer" - told by St. Basil of Kinesham shows that even when standing in the temple, we often think about worldly matters, but at the same time we want to be heard. The third novella is the story of Fr. Pavel Gruzdev about "How Christ went to visit" but, clothed in earthly things, was once again rejected.

Sequel of the movie "Parables", released in 2010. And again three stories, three reasons to watch old acquaintances with a kind smile and to think about what they are right and what they are wrong. People are often sensitive to criticism. Strange as it may seem, so is the man of faith. Even when he is wrong, he zealously defends his position. The movie "Proverbs" helps us to look at ourselves from the outside and touch the holy wisdom of the saints.

A continuation of the Proverbs series. The theme of the new trilogy is the great, gracious power of repentance and forgiveness. The power that can transform the soul, revive a person, inspire him to live in God. The action of the painting is set in the XIX century. The place and time are allegorical, because the temptations are the same in all centuries, only the scenery changes.

Do you remember the heroes of the old Proverbs - the wise clergyman and his foolish novice? Life does not stand still - in the monastery where they serve God, new buildings are growing, and the monks and parishioners are growing in spirit through labor and prayer, learning to bear each other's infirmities.

The main character, a laborer, has recently come to the monastery to become a monk. His love for God is so fervent and his strength seems to be so great! Because of this, he sometimes takes on more than he can bear. This is where neophyte mistakes happen. This movie is a work on mistakes, which a wise clergyman helps to make a fervent novice. Episodes: "Forgiveness Sunday" "Eh, I'll post!" "Prayed for" "Dry fasting" "Grandma's pies" "Full confession" "Temptation" "Spirited away".
