Island: Stories about Elders

In his book, Dmitry Orekhov tells about Russian eldership. What were they like, the seers, miracle workers, who expelled demons, gave paradoxical advice to pilgrims, always remembering the hour of death and knowing in advance the day of their impending... death? The movie 'Island' by Pavel Lungin from 2006, which elicited mixed reviews, prompted the author to investigate this question. Its hero inherited the main traits of real people, most of whom have been canonized by the Orthodox Church as saints by now.
