The program considers initially the story and witness of Irina Sofronitskaya, a Russian Catholic imprisoned in the gulag. Her story exemplifies the millions of those imprisoned for their Faith during Stalins reign of terror.

The program then moves to consider the present religious landscape in Russia, particularly the still tense relationship between Catholics an Orthodox as highlighted through short interviews with Catholic Metropolitan Kondrusiewicz and Russian Orthodox Patriarch Alexeii II.

Nevertheless, strong ecumenical projects between both communities exist and the program considers the work of Blagovest Info and Blagovest Media two ecumenical (Catholic and Orthodox) organisations working to maintain the presence of the sacramental Churches in a difficult commercial media climate with the intent to spread the Gospel as well as foster reconciliation between Catholics and Orthodox.
