Synopsis

The thrilling story of the origins of the Catholic Church and the rebirth of a boy are the features that make "Brothers in Faith" a ravishing experience. On one hand, the film is the story of Saint Paul, the jew that was born Saul and persecuted Christ's followers before being converted and turned into the apostle who Jesus chose to democratize his Church, that was built by Peter. On the other, we follow the efforts of a modern-day father, who has the difficult task of helping a young delinquent reintegrate to society. The two tales are woven together by the belief in courage and tolerance as the tools to create a more compassionate and fraternal world. "Brothers in Faith " is, above all, a tribute to tolerance.
