Second Birth is a fascinating documentary that captures a pivotal moment in history. It takes you to Leningrad, specifically on April 7, 1990, when the Cathedral of the Vladimir Icon of the Mother of God was consecrated. You can really feel the weight of the occasion, especially considering the church's troubled past—it was only returned to the faithful after being used by the Lenmashuchet factory for decades. The atmosphere is deeply reverent, and the pacing allows you to sit with the gravity of the moment. What's interesting is the way it handles themes of rebirth and faith, all underscored by the performance of Metropolitan Alexy as he conducts the ceremony. It’s a unique glimpse into a cultural renaissance.
Focus on the historical significance of the event. · Great for those interested in religious documentaries. · Uniquely documents a transitional time in post-Soviet Russia.
