The film explores his progressive and increasingly clear commitment to the poor.  From his simple but profound thought of empowering those in suffering and his concern to "give voice to the voiceless".  It also includes scenes of great testimonial value by the men and women who knew Monseñor Romero closely and shared his daily life.
