Tale
After witnessing disease and poverty in the slums of New York City, Italian immigrant Francesca Cabrini embarks on a daring journey to convince a hostile mayor to provide housing and medical care for hundreds of orphaned children. By the end of the film, many of them were reported to be crying, with a few exclaiming, “THAT’S Cabrini!” Archbishop Corrigan was not the son of poor, working-class Irish immigrants in New York.

THIS STORY WAS SO GREAT
Ok, I stumbled across this movie and the ticket. So I decided to go and see it on a Thursday night. I should also start by saying that I don’t care for religious movies, but I’m always a fan of a good female hero.
Thank you to whoever funded this ever!
And the quality of the actors and the backgrounds… thank goodness. I couldn’t sit through 2 hours of Hallmark style movie.
I recommend it!
I left feeling so inspired and in love with Cabrini and loved seeing New York as it once was. I appreciated that God was silent in the movie. It was an era & hero movie that anyone would enjoy.
