Product Description

Jeremy Irons is Father Gabriel, a man of the cloth. Robert De Niro is Rodrigo Mendoza, a man of the sword. Set in the almost mystical rain forests of South America, The Mission presents each man with his greatest challenge. The Jesuit priest has come to spread the word of God amongst the Guarani Indians; the mercenary has come to enslave them.

With the passing of time, their destinies become entwined. A film of breathtaking beauty and raw, passionate power The Mission is an unforgettable experience that glorifies the human spirit above the bloodlust and greed of governments and even the church.

Roland Joffé (The Killing Fields) directs this stirring and powerful epic written by David Lean's screenwriting collaborator, Robert Bolt and produced by David Puttnam and with an affecting score from Ennio Morricone.
