A Hand of Peace: Pope Pius XII and the Holocaust

Pope Pius XII guided the Catholic Church through two tumultuous decades, firmly establishing himself as a champion of peace, and the moral voice of a world torn apart by war. This definitive new film explores the debate over the wartime Pope and his alleged silence during the Nazi Holocaust. Featuring interviews with leading historical scholars, leaders in the Jewish community and those who personally knew Pius XII, the film details the efforts to assist Jews and other victims of Nazi atrocities.

This is the first six minutes of the film, available from Ignatius Press. Call 1-800-651-1531 or visit us at www.ignatius.com to order.
