MOTHER TERESA: NO GREATER LOVE, a documentary produced by the Knights of Columbus, tells the inspirational story of one of the world’s most revered saints. The critically acclaimed film was the second highest grossing documentary in US cinemas in 2022. This achievement speaks not only to the incredible story of Mother Teresa, but the desire of audiences to hear stories of faith. The film will be coming to Canadian screens January 22 and 23 at more than 51 Cineplex locations across 9 provinces.

Produced to coincide with the 25th anniversary of her passing, the film features never-before-seen footage of the beloved saint, rare access to the work of her religious community, the Missionaries of Charity, today, and deeply moving witness accounts of persons whose lives were forever changed because of their encounters with mother.

MOTHER TERESA: NO GREATER LOVE reveals not just who Mother Teresa was, but how her singular vision to serve Christ in the poor continues to be realized today through the religious order she founded, the Missionaries of Charity.
