Product Overview

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 II 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.

Close-Captioned, with Subtitles

Editorial Reviews

“A splendid new documentary which should be on everyone’s must-watch list. It took me nineteen years of research and three books to do what they have done in ninety-two minutes of gripping videography and marvelous graphics.”

George Weigel, Author, Witness to Hope: The Biography of Pope John Paul II
