Messenger of the Truth (2013)

Narrated by Martin Sheen, this documentary tells the remarkable true story of Father Jerzy Popieluszko, the Catholic priest and human rights activist who paid the ultimate price to faithfully inspire the people of Poland to stand against the oppressive Communist rule of the 1980s. Decades following his death, Father Jerzy’s powerful sermons on human rights, rallying against tyranny and injustice, and advocating for truth and personal freedoms are still celebrated on an international scale, assuredly sending this martyr on his path to sainthood.

One Response

  1. This is a documentary about the life of Father Jerzy Popieluszko, who came from humble beginnings, to be a large part of freeing Poland from the communist regime. He spent his time in his sermons preaching to the Polish people about their Fatherland, and keeping the spirit of freedom alive and well, even though they were under communist martial law. He wasn’t afraid to stand up for freedom, and because of his fearlessness, it cost him his life. It teaches the importance of following the Lord in living your life.
