One
of history’s greatest examples of the triumph of spiritual power
over violence and oppression is vividly recounted in Liberating
a Continent: John Paul II and the Fall of Communism,
a documentary film that poignantly captures the intricate role played
by John Paul in the collapse of communism and the liberation of
Central and Eastern Europe.
Featuring
the unique insights of intellectual and cultural leaders such as
papal biographer George
Weigel,
esteemed Polish historian Norman
Davies,
Pontifical John Paul II Institute Vice President Carl
Anderson, John
Paul’s lifelong assistant Cardinal
Stanislaw Dziwisz,
Reagan National Security Advisor Richard
Allen,
and many others, this inspiring film gives an inside look at the
improbable downfall of one of history’s most brutal regimes.
Narrated
by Jim
Caviezel (Passion
of the Christ, Person of Interest)
and with an original music score by Joe Kraemer (Mission
Impossible:Rogue Nation, Jack Reacher),
this is the incredible story of one man’s unwavering faith born of
deep personal suffering, his steadfast defense of the dignity of the
human person amidst the horrors of Nazi and Soviet Occupation, and
his unyielding belief in the spiritual unity of Europe. Liberating a
Continent convincingly reveals how these convictions toppled an evil
empire and how they remain today the moral foundations for a
prosperous and free Europe.
