Francis Chisholm is a kind-hearted and modest priest, whose individuality and spontaneity make him unpopular among the clergy.
To get rid of the "awkward" priest, he is sent to China. For more than thirty years, Chisholm supported the mission, despite extreme...
poverty, civil war, plague, and hostility from his superiors.
Fighting against ignorance, fanaticism, and brutality, Father Chisholm receives the keys to the Kingdom of Heaven, which cannot be forged, bought, or stolen.
The novel by Cronin is a fascinating, vibrant, colorful tale about a deeply spiritual man who does good in an imperfect world.
"The Keys of the Kingdom" is one of the best adaptations of contemporary English-language literature, featuring the unparalleled Gregory Peck in the lead role.
