Pope Francis: A Man of His Word, the new documentary from Oscar-nominated filmmaker Wim Wenders (Buena Vista Social Club, Wings of Desire) is intended to be a personal journey with Pope Francis, rather than a biographical documentary about him.

A rare co-production with the Vatican, the pope’s ideas and his message are central to this documentary, which features exclusive behind-the-scenes footage and sets out to present his work of reform and his answers to today’s global questions. From his deep concern for the poor and wealth inequality, to his involvement in environmental issues and social justice, Pope Francis engages the audience face-to-face and calls for peace.

These screenings follow Pope Francis' visit to Ireland on 25-26 August, the first papal visit in almost 40 years.
