Journey of the Heart: Henri Nouwen
Windborne Productions is pleased to present this one-hour  documentary on one of the most significant spiritual leaders of our  generation, Henri Nouwen. A Roman Catholic priest, University of Notre  Dame, Yale and Harvard professor, author and social activist, Nouwen  possessed a unique insight into the human condition. Through his many  books, which continue to be widely popular, Nouwen wrote passionately and  eloquently about our human frailty and brokenness, while identifying and  addressing the spiritual needs of today.Journey of the Heart is a thought-provoking look at the life of this  unassuming, charismatic scholar considered by many of his contemporaries as  one of the best and brightest minds of his time. Abandoning the insular  works of academia, Nouwen embarked on a radical and personal pilgrimage of  downward mobility that led him to L'Arche, a community of people with  developmental disabilities.This documentary features an inspiring conversation with Nouwen shot just a  year before his death. Interviews with key friends, prominent colleagues  and family members help complete the picture of this unique man of faith -  a person of passion and compassion.
