Culture
The Vatican Film Library hosted the premiere of the authorized documentary "Carlo Acutis: The Young Saint" on Sept. 29. The film features home videos and photographs of Acutis, including footage of his pilgrimages to Milan, Rome, and Fátima.
The documentary marks the 20th anniversary of Acutis' death from leukemia in 2006. It will play in Italian theaters from Oct. 15 to Oct. 21 before a scheduled release in Europe and North America in February 2027.
Antonia Salzano Acutis, the mother of Carlo Acutis, attended the screening. She told EWTN News that her son's legacy reminds people that God exists in a world where faith can seem obsolete.
