Description
BBC broadcaster Edward Stourton was ushered into a room in one of Europe's most celebrated libraries, and shown a pile of papers so sensitive that only a handful knew they existed. They were the intimate letters of a saint, Pope John Paul II, to a Polish-American woman. This documentary reveals these letters to the world for the first time₆opening an unprecedented window into the inner life of a man in the act of making history.
