Synopsis

An inspirational story of one man's journey.

Born into a life of privilege, passion and extravagance, Francis of Assisi would become one of the most beloved and revered saints in history. Bradford Dillman delivers a gripping performance as the lusty adventurer who hears the voice of God and answers by abandoning his secular life. Trading in his sword for a cross, he rises to glory... only to see his life's work threatened by a corrupt and jealous church hierarchy. Helmed by famed "Casablanca" director, Michael Curtiz, this epic tale of courage and sacrifice will inspire the entire family.
