Well done portrayal of the struggle that took C.S. Lewis from atheism to faith in Jesus. Narrated by an older C.S. Lewis, the film looks at the life of a man from childhood through the time of his realization that Jesus was who he claimed to be, a very gradual process that happened in spite of the fact that C.S. Lewis was not at all drawn to faith, but became convinced in spite of his inclinations in other directions.
