Um...

it's, uh--it's crazy.

I've never seen this before

in my lifetime,

you know, the level
of uncertainty, you know?

We're all just praying that,
you know,

we get back to normal,
or is this our new normal?

Who knows?

Yeah, and it's just,
like, craziness.

Absolute craziness.

Uh, I was a day away

from starting shooting
"Uncharted."

on their studying,

their Zoom meetings

my son had to spend
his birthday indoors

It's, uh...been crazy.

So when I heard yesterday

that the quarantine was
gonna go

from what they thought
would be Easter

to at least the end
of the month,

I set up a team with my wife.

I said, "These are things

"that are out of our control.

the things

that we have control over."

You know, we should be trying

everything

Both are under quarantine.

- This project came to us
about this story

of a priest
who also runs a hedge fund

on Wall Street.

The documentary series

I told Mark about the project,

that he wanted to meet him.

Father, would you kind of just
tell your story

as far as, you know,
what your "side job" is,

and so forth?

- Yeah.

I'm Father Emmanuel Lemelson,

and I'm a Greek Orthodox priest

and an activist investor.

Well, an activist investor
typically

gets involved with companies
in order

to protect the interest
of common shareholders.

You know, most clergy

in the Eastern churches
are married.

we have lay vocations,

and you learn about priests

who are maybe doctors
or lawyers,

but apparently,
there hasn't been any

who've really worked
in finance,

at least not in the capacity
I have.

It's been controversial,

but I've come to learn
that controversy's

not necessarily
a negative thing.

it was fascinating--

a man of the cloth was also

a man in the investment world.

Most of the priests
that I know

stick to working for the Lord,

but he's a multitasker.

- As a young man,
my heart's desire was to serve

the church as a priest,
but I was always aware

of the business world,
though, as well,

and maybe it is like
a second calling.

And I think that
as Christians,

we should embrace our work,

even in the financial world.
