Hi Yea Forums. I'm about to go on a week long water and herbal tea only fast before Orthodox Easter and I'll be in bed most of the time. Any kino recommendations while I'm passing time?

Did you talk with your spiritual Father about this? Even for a monk that's pretty extreme. And if you're doing that hard of a fast you should be spending time praying and avoiding worldly movies.
Luis Barnes
I have and I will be praying. I reconnected with my faith this year after reading Dostoevsky and I was looking for recs similar to Andrei Rublev etc etc
Jacob Allen
Welcome home brother, I don't know of any Orthodox movies, I've always wished they made some movies about the lives of saints.
Julian Russell
Thank you, I'm completely dedicated to make it past the 7 days
Easton Phillips
have you talked with a priest or monk about this? it's generally not advised to do extreme fasting unless under direction
Christopher Wilson
Yeah I have consulted him. I will be restricting it to tisanes, water, and 4 tbsps of organic cider per day for electrolytes and vitamins.
Logan Long
I'll be praying for you
Jackson Peterson
Thanks brother

To me the only movie similar to andrei rublev is marketa lazarova. Maybe try black and white ivan the great in two parts (you can watch for free on youtube) and some b&w samurai movies from kurosawa. I really like the hidden fortress, if you want color then watch kagemusha too.

The remade Battlestar Galactica. Don't forget to take some salt now and then.

LMAO people, try fasting for yourself, it is actually pretty easy after day 2, not something that requires olympic tier level of mental and physical effort.
I fast at 130 lbs and if you are heavier or have more BF then it will be even easier, just don't go for a half marathon or open water swimming while fasting and you'll be fine.

There's a difference between just abstaining from food and fasting in Orhtodoxy. If you want to go a week without eating for the health of the body, go ahead, but if you plan on fasting, which includes prayer and intense self reflection in addition to abstaining then you should consult a spiritual father.

The "Knyaz Vladimir" animated movie is absolute kino brother. Will mention you in a prayer.

>intense self reflection
I don't get this, all time I try it is maximum 2 h and I'm done. I'm happy with my life and I don't have that much to chance or make sure I'm doing ""right"" so in my case an entire week of self reflection would be a big waste of time.
I think it works better if you are unhappy with your life or actually is a bad person so you be able to spend time thinking about how you are bad and need to improve.

Andrei rublev and color of pomegranates

It's not about this world and being happy, it's about understanding your sins and why you sin.

>color of pomegranates
I get mad reading this name and remembering the time I was tricked by Yea Forums into wasting my life watching this piece of shit.
William Wright
>not about this world
Ok then, thats my problem, I only think about this world and I already have the answer for why I sin so in my case it is useless to go for intense self reflection.

It's great, especially the monostary sequences. Pure visuals, very calming. Beautiful imagery.

just fast on wednesday, friday and sunday dumbass. You don't have to go the entire week, and just don't eat meat on those days. God understands, just show your love to Him on those days especially

Are you a Catholic?

How the hell do we not have a single Byzantinekino? There's so much Dominate/Principate Roman bullshit it was a whole cottage industry in the 50s and 60s.

Get the fuck out, Protestant, you don't understand spirituality. You're little better than an atheist.

>fasting
The only time I went for a water only diet was for 3 days so I can prepare for my anal gangbang (consensual) party.
Luis Cox
I FASTED FOR A WEEK JUST TO SEE WHAT ALL THE HUBUB WAS ABOUT
AUTOPHAGY IS INTERESTING BUT YOU RUN LOW ON ENERGY AFTER LIKE 3 DAYS
AFTER 18 HOURS IT PEAKS BUT YOU WANT TO THEN STAY IN THAT STATE AS LONG AS POSSIBLE TO GET THE BENEFIT
NOT EAT AT HOUR 18 LIKE LOTS OF IF MORANS DO
A TRICK BEFORE ENTERING THE FAST IS CARDIO YOUR ASS OFF TO DEPLETE YOUR GLYCOGEN STORES AT HOUR 0, NO WAITING AROUND FOR IT TO SLOW BURN LIKE A DUM ASS
Mason Allen
Maybe I should give up Yea Forums for Holy Week.

Even if it's about Catholic missionaries, The Mission is pretty amazing.
