  12. FILM • The film adheres to the tenets of modern cinema: it is not intended to be a documentary – it is a dramatized tale that with the help of parallel stories attempts to capture the essence of Mother Teresa and includes the continuing efforts of the 5,000 Missionaries of Charity and their vision today.

SYNOPSIS • With only 5 Rupees in her pocket, 36-year-old Agnes GonxhaBojaxhiu, better known as Mother Teresa, then a geography teacher and principal at Loreto Convent School leaves behind her 300 schoolchildren to follow the call of God into the slums of Calcutta. Along with the Sisters of the religious order she builds from the ground up, she works for the poor, the sick and the dying, changing the lives of thousands. • This dramatic biopic is a gripping recreation of the life and times of a pioneer of international humanitarian work and winner of the Nobel Peace Prize.

  14. PARALLEL STORY • A young Indian woman who grew up in the modern West with all that that means! struggles to find her way in life. Inner conflicts drive her to seek out her roots in Calcutta and lead her on a journey where she discovers Mother Teresa and a new found purpose.
