The Soloist is the true story of Los Angeles Times Journalist Steve Lopez and his friendship with Nathaniel Anthony Ayers, Jr. When Lopez first meets Ayers, he is playing a violin with only two strings and expounding on the beauty of Beethoven.This powerful film is a wonderful way to explore Catholic social teaching through the themes of:
- The inherent worth and dignity of every human being
- The option for the poor
- The call to being fully human in community
