A scene worthy of a film: a breathtaking view of the Ethiopian forest from a mountaintop, beneath a brilliant blue sky, with celestial light in the background. A white-haired monk, adorned with six wings and a long white mustache, wears a saint's hat haloed in light and is draped in a multicolored celestial veil. He holds a golden cross in his right hand and a holy book in his left. He is praying to God. His sides are pierced by three knives each, and he stands with one leg half severed and the other lying on the ground. The camera follows the celestial light, the monk, and his prayer. The soft sunlight emphasizes the texture of the light, the monk, and, above all, the magnificence of the place.
