These monks were not "Christian" merely, but more correctly Catholic monks--i.e., Roman Catholic Church. This is a slow movie, with a few beautiful scenes. I am very partial to religious choirs, so I loved the monks singing. The last screen states that the monks' end is a mystery. There might be speculation about their end—none ever returned from captivity to tell what happened—but since they were taken from the monastery by terrorists, it is not illogical to believe they were killed.
