What secrets do religions hold?

Tiffany Jenkins travels to Rome to The Vatican's Secret Archive to discover how open they are at allowing access to a vast historical archive connected to the Catholic Church. She explores the importance of secrecy in creating a space and a connection to the divine, and whether accepting secrecy and mystery leads to wisdom as knowing what you don't know is wisdom itself.
