Reverend (1989)
Synopsis
A two-part TV drama about the life and work of Jozef Murgaš, a world-renowned inventor, talented painter, and Slovak patriot. The first part focuses mainly on his life in Slovakia and describes Murgaš's student years. He leaves the picturesque surroundings of his native Tajov to attend high school in Banská Bystrica and later, at his mother's request, continues his studies in theology at the Esztergom Seminary. However, his studies did not end with graduation from this faculty. His love of painting was stronger and led him first to a one-year art preparatory course in Budapest and then to the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich. However, he was unable to complete his studies due to brutal intervention by the authorities. The second part depicts Murgaš's life in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, in the United States. He worked there as a priest in the local church, which he built together with other Slovaks. He also contributed to the establishment of a school for Slovak children in Wilkes-Barre.
