A documentary about a sitting Pope?  This must be the 21st Century! And the whole “day in the life” idea for this doc sounds interesting.  Check out the trailer, then read on after the jump for all the info from the studio!

Pope Francis – A Man of His Word opens in Baltimore on May 18th, 2018.

Focus Features will release Pope Francis – A Man of His Word in theaters on May 18, 2018 

Story: Wim Wenders’ new documentary, “Pope Francis – A Man of His Word,” is intended to be a personal journey with Pope Francis, rather than a biographical documentary about him. The pope’s ideas and his message are central to this documentary, which 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.

Director: Wim Wenders (“Buena Vista Social Club,” “Pina,” “The Salt of the Earth”)
