For anyone committed to the cause of human dignity, or simply hungry to again see the beauty in life, it shouldn't be missed."[3] In June, the Archbishop of Kraków Poland sent an open letter to the producers of The Human Experience, which concluded with a hope that the film would "contribute to an ever deeper knowledge of the essence of human life and human dignity."[4]
