Abstract

In lieu of an abstract, below is the essay's first paragraph:

In the film, Clare and Francis, the viewer is taken through the significant life events of Francis and Clare of Assisi that led them to become people of God. While Francis and Clare lived in the thirteenth century, the film portrays their spiritual journeys with commendable historical accuracy. In particular, there is much to be analyzed in the meeting of Francis and the Sultan for its significance and the accuracy of how it is depicted in the film.
