summary:
Pope Francis made 37 trips to 53 countries in his first nine years, and his primary goals were poverty, immigration, the environment, solidarity and war. Impressed by the fact that two of these trips, the first to Lampedusa Island and the second to the Middle East, coincided with the itineraries of the films Fire at Sea and Nightfall, director Gianfranco Rosi set about composing the special Via. Pope Francis’ Crucis trips are to see what he saw, listen to what he said, and create a dialogue between archival footage of his papal expeditions, Rosi’s own, and recent images of the world today.
