VITA FRA MONDI

Screening of the docufilm by Aldeas Scholas Films on the murals promoted by Scholas Occurrentes, the international educational movement founded by Pope Francis. With an introduction by Mario Del Verme, international coordinator of Scholas Occurrentes Sport; Ezequiel del Corral, director of the docufilm; Mariana dos Santos Barradas, Portuguese educator and protagonist of the film.

Pope Francis celebrates with young people the creation of the largest artwork in the world. On the occasion of the 37th World Youth Day, Pope Francis added the final brushstroke to a mural nearly four kilometers long, painted by young people, the elderly, and children of different faiths and even non-believers, from all over the world. The project culminates in a kind of “Sistine Chapel” that brings together the diversity of generations, origins, and religions—an artistic and human experience that reflects the heart of Scholas: building bridges through beauty and shared creativity.
