Editor's Note
National Geographic is known for its ability to penetrate nether regions of the world that have long been unexplored or forbidden. There is no greater evidence of this than the INSIDE THE VATICAN special, aired originally on PBS. Gaining access to private chapels and rare archives previously unseen in film footage, this incredibly informative documentary studies nearly 2000 years of life behind Vatican walls. Historians and associates of Pope John Paul II are consulted in this stunning portrait of the sacred city. Narrated by Martin Sheen. Includes thirty minutes of bonus footage not included in the original PBS broadcast.
