SEEKING GOD, a fascinating examination of the strange life of the Benedictine monks at New Mexico's Monastery of Christ in the Desert, presents the traditional chants, seasonal rituals, and heartfelt prayers, as well as penetrating interviews with the monks themselves about their choices and lifestyle. The setting remains beautiful in the unique way that only a southwestern desert can, with the impressive red-rimmed canyon and nearby Chama River forming a ribbon through the eerie vegetation. The inner workings of the monastery, with the divisions of labor and continuous prayer, form the heart of this unusual glimpse into another world.
