A 13-part worldwide series exploring Man's religious quest. Presented by Ronald Eyre

Ronald Eyre visits a triangle of places in Europe: Rome for Mass in St Peter's celebrated by the Pope; Leeds to meet an English Catholic family and a factory worker; and Spain to see the great Abbey of Montserrat and to meet the Little Brothers of Jesus, a small but worldwide monastic order dedicated to living the obscure working life that Jesus lived in Nazareth. Their novice house is in a remote and barren part of central Spain, a desert. 'The desert is a space in your head. It's something you carry around with you. It's the hard place where you meet yourself and where you go searching for God.'
