A series in four episodes, not to be missed, by SimonaErcolani with the editorial consultancy of Antonio Spadaro and produced by Stand By Me, partner of Asacha Media Group and inspired by Bergoglio's book entitled SHARING THE WISDOM OFTIME (The wisdom of time).
In addition to the pontiff's interventions, the docu-series offers the testimonies of many women and men over 70 (including Martin Scorsese, Jane Goodall and Estela Barnes de Carlotto) from all over the world who tell their stories in front of the lens of young filmmakers under 30, to a total of one year of filming and eighteen stories from the five continents.
In the first episode, dedicated to the theme of love, Pope Francis, interviewed in the Vatican, between memories and considerations remembers his beloved grandmother named Rosa: "What I most appreciated about her were her silences". She was in fact a person who had suffered a lot, the pontiff later explains in the film. "Love - he then says - is true only when free and there are couple problems with it, the important thing is to suffer together withmore and go on ". (ANSA).
