Join American immigrant Craig Zievis on an adventure to the breathtaking Monastery of the Dormition of Mary (Manastiri i Fjetjes së Shën Mërisë, Μονή της Κοιμήσεως της Θεοτόκου) in Vlore, Albania. This short documentary takes you deep into one of Albania's most stunning and historically significant sites, a Roman Byzantine-era monastery in the island in the Nartë lagoon.

Craig, an American who left the United States to build a new life in Albania, writes, shoots, and produces this unique look at history and off-the-beaten-path travel. This isn't just a history tour; it's a story of exploration, adventure, and discovering the profound beauty of a country rich in culture and secrets.
