DVD: Karol, A man who become Pope1930 - Poland. 10-year-old Karol Wojtyla has dreams, many dreams.  One by one they are shattered; first, by the loss of his beloved mother and brother, then by the outbreak of the war and the death-fleeing human exodus which ensued, and finally, by the first signs of the Jewish persecution.  These events marked the start of Karol's long journey from worker to poet and teacher - a journey full of encounters that leads him to become a priest, and finally in 1978, to become Pope John Paul II.  (Import overseas). 186 Minutes. Recommended by Pope Benedict XVI.
