Radical Disciple: The Story of Father Pfleger

Radical Disciple: The Story of Father Pfleger

58 minutes 2009 HD

  • Share

The story of Catholic iconoclast Michael Pfleger who made it his mission to transform the drug ravaged south side Chicago community surrounding his parish. In so doing, Father Mike has run directly into conflict with the local Catholic hierarchy. The film explores issues of racism, the power of the media, and the tension between Pfleger's 'gospel of the streets' versus traditional Church theology.
