      Plot


      The film shows the life and works of Gregor Mendel, the father of modern genetics, from the perspective of a scientific monk, a man of prayer, faith and science. The decor is the 19th century Austro-Hungarian Empire. We see Mendel's fight to change the fiscal policies applied to the monasteries of his country, as well as his struggles to change people's mind regarding his great discovery. Mendel will ask himself if it is possible to reconcile faith and science, and if his discovery will be useful for humanity or dangerous, as it could be used for eugenics purposes. In that sense, his benefactor and friend, the princess Hanna von Limburg, will be of a great help. Mendel finally publishes his conclusions, and goes to the Vatican meet the Pope, who welcomes his works.
