VATICAN CITY, APRIL 1, 2009 (Zenit.org).- The Vatican Television Center has made a DVD detailing the last moments of Pope John Paul II's life, the period as the Church awaited a new pope and Benedict XVI's election.
"Tu Es Petrus Benedict XVI: The Keys of the Kingdom" offers previously unpublished images, including the preparation of the conclave according to the protocol stipulated by John Paul II himself. It also looks at the intense scenes of the Polish Pontiff's demise, including the gathering of the multitude in St. Peter's Square during his final moments. And it shows the excitement of the crowds as they welcomed Benedict XVI.
The DVD is available in seven languages, including English.
During April, it is being offered with a 25% discount.
