Arena

Searching of the `real' Sister Wendy Beckett, who burst on to screens in the 1990s, telling the story of Christian art and painting, but revealing little of her own extraordinary story. Wendy herself, 82, talks frankly, humorously and profoundly about her life and spirituality for the first time. Her story, inseparable from that of the Gospel, is told alongside her selection of paintings by the greatest old masters.
