For the first time ever, the fascinating story surrounding the original work of art commissioned by St Faustina and painted in Vilnius, Lithuania, by an uncelebrated artist is finally being told in a new documentary, The Original Image of Divine Mercy.

The Original Image of Divine Mercy features exclusive interviews with first-hand eye-witnesses, as well as Bishop Robert Barron of Los Angeles (Word on Fire), author George Weigel (Witness to Hope), Cardinal Stanisław Dziwisz (Kraków), Cardinal Christoph Schönborn (Vienna), author Fr. Leo Maasburg (spiritual director and confessor to Blessed Mother Teresa), author Immaculée Ilibagiza (Left to Tell), Fr. Dwight Longenecker (Standing on My Head), and many others.

Conversations with comedian Jim Gaffigan (The Jim Gaffigan Show), and multiple Grammy and Emmy Award-winning musician Harry Connick, Jr. (American Idol) give the artists' perspective. A special appearance by Fr. Karl Wallner from the Cistercian Abbey in Stift Heiligenkreuz, Austria, home to the Billboard chart-topping Chant CDs, round out the discussion about the Good, True, and Beautiful and Art's highest call - to reveal the Divine.

Edyta Hankowska-Czerwińska, sacred art restorer, discusses the mystical experiences she had while bringing the miraculous image back to it's original state. A fascinating interview in itself. Edyta Hankowska-Czerwińska may knows the Original Image of Divine Mercy more intimately than anyone alive today.

This independent film was shot throughout the U.S. and Europe (NYC, Rome, Vilnius, Vienna, Turin, Philly, etc). The documentary includes never-before-seen close-up images of the original painting in Vilnius (Lithuania), the permanent home of the Original Image. The Original Image of Divine Mercy has been officially endorsed by Cardinal Christoph Schönborn, Archbishop of Vienna and president of the World Apostolic Congress on Mercy (WACOM), by Gintaras Grušas, Archbishop of Vilnius, Lithuania, and by the Pontifical Council for the Promotion of the New Evangelization.
