The Roman Catholic Church. The Vatican and Italy

Description

With privileged access to the Vatican, this program offers a concise account of the relationship between the autonomous nations of the Vatican and Italy. In addition to showing the basilica, the electrifying spectacle of a papal audience, and the profoundly moving Maundy Thursday ceremony at St. John Lateran's, the program also considers the reality of the Pope's own diocese, Rome, and explores the dilemmas of practicing Catholics, laypeople and clergy, and their sometimes ambivalent attitude towards the Vatican.
