21:20Now PlayingA devout young Latino Catholic, son of Salvadoran immigrants, refuses to let people who do not fully understand who he is, and what he stands for, determine his identity as a human being and as a believer. His resolve to be authentically Catholic makes him free.
"The Liberation of Mauricio Najarro" is part of the three film documentary project, "Longing for More: Young Adult Hispanic Catholics," that shares the spiritual journeys of young Hispanic Catholics in the United States as they grapple with questions of identity, faith and belonging.
