The Worship

I had been searching for the essence and mysteries of faith when, while in Palermo, Sicily, I happened to come across what for me was a mystifying ritual:
Two women in fervent prayer prostrating, bending and crossing themselves in front of a crucifix in a Greek Byzantine Christian church.
I seemed to be witnessing an enigmatic theatrical liturgy, that is still elusive. 
The video seeks to elicit in the viewer a sense of wonder, curiosity, and the role of the sacred in a secular world.
