From Alejandro Monteverde, award-winning director of Sound of Freedom, comes the powerful epic of Francesca Cabrini, an Italian immigrant who arrives in New York City in 1889 and is greeted by disease, crime, and impoverished children. Cabrini sets off on a daring mission to convince the hostile mayor to secure housing and healthcare for society's most vulnerable. With broken English and poor health, Cabrini uses her entrepreneurial mind to build an empire of hope unlike anything the world had ever seen.
"Cabrini is a biographical drama that portrays the struggle of an Italian immigrant, Francesca Cabrini, to persuade the mayor of New York to provide housing and medical care for orphans facing extreme poverty and illness. With unshakable determination and faith, Cabrini overcomes the challenges of a hostile system to save hundreds of lives. Produced by Angel Studios, the film highlights the courage of a woman who became a symbol of compassion and justice in the late 19th century."
