Bernardo of Quintavalle was born to a wealthy and noble family in Assisi. After spending time with Francis, he gave all of his money to the poor and became Francis’ first follower and closest disciple. Bernardo remained close to Francis, especially during the last two years of Francis’ life. On his deathbed, Francis imparted a special blessing to Bernardo. Narrated from Bernardo's point of view, this dramatic presentation captures the grace, simplicity, humility, and joy of the poor man from Assisi.
