In a tiny village Deep in the Yaroslavl region arrives dressed in traditional shoes geta Japanese. This Orthodox priest Takuro Nakamura (Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa) — the baptism the father of Nicholas. Past the newly arrived rector not rosy. Fighter, associated with the clan organized crime family ties (the head of the group — his brother), one day on the streets of Tokyo was faced with the arbitrariness and violence. Did not keep your anger and saved the innocent young saleswoman from the attack of a gang of young villains. Broke his arm and nose, the leader, the son of a powerful Yakuza.

The Confessor blesses Takuro to leave Japan. Link not only saves the priest from the wrath of the bandits, but also leads to the realization of another, more important goal — to restore peace in his soul and to restore harmony in relationship with God. The Russian heartland initially meets Japanese traditional harsh "hospitality." In several houses the lost villages live a different, but very familiar to all of us typical people.

 





Among them returned home, the former commando, who decided to breed rabbits (Ivan zhizhikin), drink too much former hockey player, a young slacker (Pyotr Fyodorov), hunter-veteran (Pyotr Mamonov), a country Bumpkin (Alexander Samoilenko), and do not understand how people holding's representative in Central Asia, the local scapegoat (Aziz Rametov).

Now they can only be destroyed physically. And then at night in the Deep come armed bandits...

 

Currently the Orthodoxy in our country is going through tough times. This is the situation in the domestic film industry, only occasionally trying to touch the religious topic. Lately, there has been created a few films in varying degrees, talking about things transcendent.

And, basically, we are talking exclusively about art-house projects like "the Island" by Pavel Lungin or "Salvation" by Ivan Vyrypaev. In the case of the film "Priest-San..." we are faced with the unprecedented genre of religious dramatic Thriller. Absolute popular movie — that's as if Dmitri Astrakhan has directed the TV series "Plot".

But, despite some clumsiness of directing, this is a very good and unique film. The fact that the screenwriter Ivan Okhlobystin came up with the idea to rehabilitate in the eyes of skeptics, the way the priest in an environment where priests contemptuously referred to as "priests", and, no kidding, genius.

Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, Hollywood movie star with an impressive history, an end to the astonishing way for his acting career. The image of stereotypes. The more incredible it seems that shooting in the film became for the actor a genuine spiritual experience. Dive into Russian the world is so shocked Tagawa that he accepted Baptism in one of the Moscow churches and, judging by his words, found in Russia, not only faith, but also his people.

"We are warriors, not soldiers", — summed up the essence Tagawa Russian and Japanese soul. And "Priest-San...", of course, valor, and style. Essential to the Japanese mentality components. And that the new acquisition of values has happened here, in our land, looks absolute divine Providence. published
