Gaby Jácoba, known for his important role in publicizing stories of faith through the International Catholic Film Festival, told ACI Press that this film “takes you for a journey of healing and conversion with Sebastián, starring Antonio Mauri, who meets the love of God through San Carlo Cutis to reach holiness.”
With its “infallible method” that has the Eucharist and prayer as a center, and with this film, San Carlo Acutis “is playing many hearts, where it has already been presented after its tour in Rome, in Spain and in the different premieres in Miami, in New York and in Hollywood, which was the last.”
Gaby Jácoba also said that many are moved from cinema because Carlo Acutis had in the center of his life “to God, to Jesus, to the Eucharist and around her whole daily life, everyday, she applied and living the kit of holiness. So good, this film is for all, from children of 7, 8 years to grandparents, for families, for young people, this film touches the heart to all.”
