The Vatican
The Vatican" is a six-part series exploring whether the Catholic Church can survive its mounting crises—from scandal to dwindling congregations. Through powerful archival footage and six provocative questions, we examine the Church’s inner struggles and the pope's potential to shape its future.
The six questions: Could a pope potentially change the church, or are its structures too resilient for that? How does the Vatican deal with obstructionists? Are the Jews friends or foes? Why does woman, attributed extraordinary dignity by numerous church documents, remain invisible at the Vatican? Is sexual pleasure always sinful? How do you become pope?
