Oprah Winfrey presents "Belief" a groundbreaking television event exploring humankind's ongoing search to connect with something greater than ourselves. This original series invites viewers to witness some of the world's most fascinating spiritual journeys through the eyes of the believers.
Journeying to the far reaches of the world, and to places cameras have rarely been, "Belief" searches the origins of diverse faiths and the heart of what really matters. From the epic to the intimate, webbed throughout each hour are stories of people on spiritual journeys, taking them to sacred spaces, including:the largest peaceful gathering in the history of the world as a group of believers seek redemption along the banks of a holy river; a free climber on the side of a mountain who believes there is no greater power than just being present as he climbs without rope; inside the ceremonies of the past as a 21st centurywoman seeks to find a miracle cure using ancient ceremonial treatments; the quiet of the night as a culture seeks to hang on to its 50,000 year-old history by searching the stars for insight to share with future generations; and, a courtroom and prison where a grieving mother must grapple with forgiveness asshe comes face-to-face with her son's killer. These stories and others will all lead us to ask: "What do you believe?"
