Discover how the 85-year-old pope has been a calming force in a chaotic, unfair world—and how the gruelling task seems to weigh increasingly heavily on his shoulders.

This film has English subtitles.

“The globalization of indifference has made us forget how to cry.” That is what Pope Francis said during his trip to Lampedusa, the place where many boat refugees try to set foot on European soil. The frequent travels of the church leader can be seen as an attempt to break through the indifference. In nine years he made 37 trips and visited 53 countries.

Pope Francis embraces refugees and prisoners, makes abuses within the church a topic of discussion. It brings into sharp focus how the 85-year-old pope was a calm, soothing factor in a chaotic, unfair world, and how this exhausting task seems to weigh increasingly heavily on his shoulders.
