Le projet initial date de 1984, lorsque Philip Gröning envoie une demande au monastère pour leur proposer de les filmer. Les Chartreux ne l'ont rappelé qu'en 1999, lui donnant finalement leur accord. Le cinéaste a vécu six mois parmi eux en 2002-2003, dans la discrétion la plus grande, accumulant 120 heures d'images. Il en résulte un film d'une durée de 2 heures 42, sans dialogues ou presque (généralement des prières), sans musique additionnelle, sans commentaire, sans autres bruits que ceux produits par les gestes du quotidien, sans autres voix que celles relevant de l'accomplissement du rite.

Saul Naumann (Gere) is a somewhat controlling Jewish husband and father. A Religious Studies professor at UC Berkeley, Saul wrote his graduate thesis on the Kabbalah. Because he was a devout Jew, his wife Miriam (Binoche) converted to Judaism when they married, and he nurtured his son Aaron (Max Minghella) as a traditional studious Jew like himself. When Eliza (Flora Cross) wins her class spelling bee, they embark on a course of Kabbalah study to help her win. The film follows the family and the spiritual quests upon which they journey, in large part because of Saul: Miriam's attempt to make herself whole, Aaron's religious uncertainty, and Eliza's desire to be closer to her father.
