FOX Nation and famed director Martin Scorsese explore the lives of eight saints in the new docuseries Martin Scorsese Presents: The Saints.

Scorsese narrates each episode, which tells a saint’s story through historical reenactments, followed by a segment with Scorsese engaging in a discussion with scholars about the saint.

“These are incredible stories of men and women who really are facing the most difficult test of all in humanity, which is faith,” says creator and executive producer Matti Leshem. “And in many cases, they’re willing to die for it. And I think that that is the thing that inspired us to use these particular stories, to tell the story of what’s facing all of us right now — whether you’re a believer or an atheist, everyone has to believe in something. And I think what’s incredible about the stories of the saints is that it kind of goes to the notion that the human spirit has an incredible capacity for conviction and for transcendence and for sacrifice in the service of something larger than itself.”
