Our God’s Brother (1997)
The Story of St. Albert Chmielowski
Links
Overview
Beautifully made film about St. Brother Albert, who gave up a promising career in art in order to personally serve and live among the poor and homeless.
Review
Based on a play by St. John Paul II, which he called rather an “inner theater” than a drama, the dialogue is richly theological and philosophical. The filmmakers did a wonderful job adapting this to film, aptly calling it not a film but a filmed play.
Caveats
- Skip! Gory amputation (0:07:00 to 0:08:00)
