Director: John Kent Harrison, Cast: Jon Voight, Cary Elwes, Ben Gazzara, Christopher Lee, Vittoria Belvedere, James Cromwell, Ettore Bassi Production: Lux Vide, Rai,Cbs, Baltmedia, - Country: Italy,Usa,Poland, Year: 2005-200'. Summary: The history of Karol Woytila who became the beloved Pope John Paul II, Karol Wojtyla is brought up by his father in the Polish city of Krakow during the first half of the 20th century. An outstanding student with a magnetic personality, he dreams of becoming an actor. When his homeland is invaded by the Nazis in 1939, he and his friends secretly oppose the systematic persecution of their Polish culture. But, with the death of his father and the lacerating solitude which accompanies this loss, he decides to follow a priestly vocation. When he is appointed Cardinal, Karol is more intransigent in the spiritual guidance of his homeland, becoming a real and proper thorn in the side of the Communist government. And the whole Catholic world begins to wonder who he is. On the death of Pope John Paul I in 1978, the cardinals of the Conclave decide that Woytjla is the right man to lead the Church into the new millennium. He miraculously survives an attempt on his life in 1981, and not even this event curbs his mssion. Thanks to his unshakable tenacity , Pope John Paul II helps to change the course of history: the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 decrees the collapse of Communism. With the Great Jubilee of 2000 he accomplishes his promise of taking the Church into the New Millenium, with his journey to Israel he tries to fill the gap between the Christian and the Jewish. The day he dies, on the first Saturday after Easter 2005, a crowd of people in love with the Pope gather in Rome, under the Pope's window.
