All That Devouring Beauty by Panagiotis Kountouras
Greece, 2024, 66min., Documentary

The Athonite ritual of the Epitaph is observed only in Skiathos, except for Mount Athos. It is a spiritual experience that lights up the human soul just like the lit candles do when they escort the ‘holy Epitaph’. The vernal season co-celebrates and the whole island uniquely witnesses ‘all that devouring beauty’ of the Holy Suffering.
