I saw this movie years ago and wanted to own it. This story is so very relevant to the times. Here is a Pope who is frustrated because he really doesn't know what the world is like on the outside and how the people live - he and the others in the Vatican have been out of the "people" loop for years.
This movie takes a look at bringing the people to the fore in the Church.
