After the death of Saint Francis of Assisi, Clare and the first five brothers of the order come together to remember the man who changed their lives. They recall his wild youth, his time as a prisoner of war, his choice to renounce family wealth and live among the poor, and the final years when Francis came to see his community on the brink of collapse. The role of this complex saint is played by the notorious actor Mickey Rourke.
