Flowers Of St Francis (Francesco, Giullare Di Dio)

In a series of simple and joyous vignettes, director Roberto Rossellini and co-writer Federico Fellini lovingly convey the universal teachings of the People's Saint ? humility, compassion, faith, and sacrifice. Gorgeously photographed to evoke the medieval paintings of Saint Francis' time, and cast with monks from the Nocera Inferiore Monastery, Flowers of St Francis is a timeless and moving portrait of the search for spiritual enlightenment.
