David Morse (The Green Mile) stars in this dramatization of the journals of Father John McNamee, a real-life maverick priest running an inner city Catholic parish in Philadelphia. Whether helping a heroin addict illegally purchase methadone so he can go on his honeymoon or rushing to an emergency court session in the middle of the night to bail out a young parishioner, Father McNamee’s daily moral quandaries reveal how one activist priest can rescue lost souls.
