The stirring tale of the founder of the Franciscan order unfolds in this biopic of Francis of Assissi, the saint who rescinded all worldly goods in favor of living for the poor. Born into a wealthy Umbrian family, Francis spent his early years in revelry, and was set on a military career until he heard God's voice in a dream.
