An engaging film–Thank you for this thorough history and moving example of courage these priests showed in keeping the faith in such adversity and under harsh treatment.
I would be interested in learning more about your experience in making this video and what discussions it has prompted amongst yourselves. Let me know when you can.
Great effort!
