A very moving and inspiring movie about Pope John Paul II, The Divine Mercy Pope, who beatified and canonized St Maria Faustina, the First Saint of the Millenium. 10-year-old Karol Wojtyla has dreams, many dreams. One by one they are shattered. First, by the loss of his beloved mother and brother. Then, by the outbreak of the war and the death-fleeing human exodus which ensued. And finally, by the first signs of the Jewish persecution. These events will mark the start of Karol’s long journey from worker, to poet and teacher. A journey full of encounters that eventually leads him to become a priest and finally, in 1978, to become the man we all now know, a man who has marked an era, a man who has made history. Pope John Paul II. 186 Minutes.
