Kim Sou-hwan

The piercing cold of 10 below zero wasn't even a problem. In February, 2009, about 400,000 people gathered in Myung Dong for a brief meeting for a single reason. The late cardinal KIM Sou-hwan became the first cardinal in a land of poor faith. He summoned up his courage when no one took action. He practiced love as a miracle until he left us. He was a respected senior of the society beyond the religion in the turbulent times; a figure whose life had been like a fence for the disadvantaged. The late cardinal KIM Sou-hwan was ‘a great man of the era’. His passionate love is now revived on the screen.

Five years since he passed away, this documentary reveals some of his very last moments in this world. His bright smile, his stern voice, his warm hands, dignity, humor, innocence, honesty, confession… Discover the Stephen Kim Sou-hwan that you didn’t know about.
