 humanitarian activist often compared to Mother Teresa, has been nominated 
 for sainthood by some Catholics in spite of her personally unconventional 
 life (revealed for the first time in this film) and her own protest.\n\nThe 
 film begins at the height of the depression with radical journalist Dorothy 
 Day meeting French peasant philosopher, Peter Maurin. Together they 
 organized the Catholic Worker, a lay-person peace, justice and homeless 
 hospitality movement.\n\nToday over 185 Catholic Worker communities world 
 wide are committed to nonviolence, voluntary poverty, prayer, and 
 hospitality for the homeless, exiled, hungry, and forsaken. Catholic 
 Workers continue to protest injustice, war, racism, and violence of all 
 forms.\n\nThe film includes many candid images by Watsonville 
 photojournalist Bob Fitch who will provide commentary and lead discussion 
 after the film presentation.\n\nThe event is sponsored by the Watsonville
