Missionary William Carey is the subject of this biopic that tells the story of the Christian leader's 40-year stay in India. Carey takes part in abolishing the practice of sati -- burning widows alive. Known as the Friend of India and Father of Modern Missions, Carey heads up numerous translations of the Bible and continues on, despite a fire that destroys years of his literary works. Richard Attlee, Lynette Edwards and Julie-Kate Olivier star.
