Their conversation takes inspiration from the eternal tension between vices and virtues. From Wrath to Despair, from Faith to Charity, this documentary weaves a compelling spiritual journey guided by the delicate balance between the seven deadly vices and the seven cardinal virtues.
“We’ve fallen into a culture of adjectives and forgotten the nouns,” the Pope remarks. “Don’t forget that you are a person. It is more important to be human than to be labeled by virtues or vices. God loves the person, not the label.”
With a tone that is both fresh and profoundly sincere, this documentary offers a cinematic path of contemplation, where every viewer is bound to discover something deeply personal and universally human.
