"The aim of the festival is to spread the word about the work of Mother Teresa among youths and children and encourage them to take up work for the poor and the weak. This would be one way of paying tribute to Mother Teresa, also known as the Saint of the Gutter," said Reverend Father Norbert, coordinator the festival in Rajasthan.
The festival has travelled to Kerala, the states of the North East, Madhya Pradesh and even to the national capital. In Rajasthan, the films have played to audiences of children in Udaipur and Jodhpur already.

Among the films to be screened is 'Mother Teresa and Me' the story of the polio-afflicted filmmaker Gautam Lewis, who was taken care of by the Missionaries of Charity in his early childhood.
