Saint Of 9/11

The True Story of Father Mychal Judge

In an enduring photograph of 9/11, a team of rescue workers carry a Franciscan priest´s body from the World Trade Center. The world came to know Father Mychal Judge, in death as a symbol of courage and sacrifice.

Narrated by Sir Ian McKellen, Saint Of 9/11 represents the turbulent, restless, spiritual and remarkable journey of Father Mychal. Compassionate champion of the needy and forgotten, and a beloved New York City Fire Department Chaplain, he was a humble priest who wrestled with his own private demons while touching others in powerful and miraculous ways.

Saint Of 9/11 features friends and colleagues such as President Bill Clinton, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, and former New York Fire Commissioner Thomas Von Essen paying tribute to the quintessential Franciscan priest whose life´s work far eclipsed his heroic death.
