“THE PICTURE THAT TOUCHES NEW HEIGHTS OF EMOTION”

Father Francis Chisholm (Gregory Peck) is sent to China as a young priest to build a Catholic parish among people who have no use for one. John M. Stahl follows him through hostility, isolation, disease and poverty, while his boyhood friend thrives in a calling far easier than his own. Each setback humbles him and sharpens his resolve, and the parish is the only thing he has to measure himself against.
