This is such an inspiring film — Sister Maria Rosa Leggol is the kind of activist and humanitarian that proves that one person really can change the world. What she was able to accomplish and the number of lives she impacted is just remarkable. As an entrepreneur, her strategic insight and take action attitude were so inspiring. Definitely worth the watch!
