First source report

Catholic IntelligenceUpdated 1 min read

The documentary short Green Lava began its qualification process for the Academy Awards with screenings in Beverly Hills starting September 18. Produced in collaboration with the Vatican, the film follows Giacomo Mattivi, a young man living with a rare muscle disease.

Mattivi told Vatican media that the goal of the film is to ensure the message reaches as many people as possible. Director Lia Beltrami described the subject as a life lived in faith, while Paolo Ruffini called the film an antidote to clouded eyes.
