Academy Award-winner Susan Sarandon narrates Journey of the Heart–the Life of Henri Nouwen, an inspirational one-hour documentary on author, academic and social activist, Henri Nouwen. Nouwen stands alongside such luminaries as C.S. Lewis, Evelyn Underhill, Thomas Merton and Simone Weil as one of the most significant spiritual thinkers of our time. Nouwen possessed a unique insight into the human condition. Through more than 40 books, which continue to be bestsellers worldwide, he wrote passionately and eloquently about mankind’s communion of frailty and brokenness, while identifying and addressing the spiritual needs of today.

Journey of the Heart –the Life of Henri Nouwen was produced by Windborne Productions and airs on American Public Television this spring.
