A new documentary on Pope Francis by the Knights of Columbus, entitled "Francis: The Pope from the New World," will re-air this Sunday on the U.S. cable channel CNBC.
"This documentary arrives as the world realizes that a very special man has assumed the leadership of the Catholic Church, and this begins – but does not end – with his gestures of humility and care for everyone," Carl Anderson, Supreme Knight of the Knights of Columbus and an executive producer of the documentary, said Oct. 30.
Anderson said the details of Pope Francis' life are still "largely unknown" to the public, including the ways he has "defended the voiceless and Catholic principles."
"This documentary delves into those stories," he said.
