Description: "This rare interview captures on film one of the greatest humanitarians of our time, and has never been available before on DVD. Although biographies appear regularly, the world actually knows very little about Mother Teresa. Apart from a few published speeches and selected prayers, she has not bequeathed any writings. Director Marcel Bauer had to wait many years before the "Mother" reluctantly gave him permission for an interview. This program is the film record of that historic interview, filmed just months before Mother Teresa's death, which contains her thoughts and views on many important subjects. This film may well be regarded as the spiritual testament of one of the most exceptional women of our time. Also, for the first time in many years, "the most hallowed place" was permitted to be filmed, the Hall of the Dying in Kalighat"--Container.
