Storyline

Man of God brings to life the incredible true story of Saint Nectarios of Aegina, Greece. A priest of the common people, his humility annoyed the prideful orthodox clergy of the day. In contrast to his religious superiors - the bishops and patriarchs mesmerized by worldly honors and power - Nectarios cared for the poor; taught peasant girls to read and write; inspired by example young men to enter the priesthood; and wrote books and delivered sermons that uplifted nations of believers. In this exquisitely made film, relive Nectarios' inspiring devotion and perseverance as, despite the efforts of the religious establishment to discredit him and dismantle his good works over decades, he embraced humility and inspired thousands to become one of Greece's most renowned saints. — Wikipedia The ever-growing popularity of Saint Nektarios of Aegina (1846 - 1920), the then Metropolitan Bishop of Pentapolis, sparks jealousy in the ranks of the high-level orthodox priests in Alexandria. And for fear of becoming the next Patriarch of Alexandria, a portion of the clergy embarks on a systematic smear campaign against Nektarios, bent on driving him out of Egypt. As a result, Nektarios relocates to Athens, Greece, where he touches the hearts of the needy and dedicates himself to teaching and writing. However, the unrelenting workload takes a toll on Nektarios' fragile health, forcing him to retire to Aegina, where he establishes a monastery. As Saint Nektarios falls foul of the system once more, accused of immorality, his health deteriorates, and he ends up in Aretaieion Hospital, Athens. But there, a posthumous final miracle awaits an unexpected believer. — Nick Riganas
