From Michelangelo to Bernini, from Raphael to Borromini, this film immerses you in a journey through the four Papal Basilicas in Rome and their treasures.

As the Jubilee Year of Hope unfolds, we look back to Pope Francis' opening of the previous Jubilee of Mercy, opened in 2017.

This documentary takes you on a journey through the four Papal Basilicas in Rome and their treasures: St. Peter’s (one of the 25 destinations most visited by travellers from all over the world), St. John in the Lateran, St. Mary Major and St. Paul Outside the Walls. Four majestic buildings – each with a precious papal altar, each a treasure trove of timeless works of art and a destination for millions of travellers and pilgrims over the centuries – play the leading role in our encored film tour.

Introduced with excerpts from 'A Roman Journal' by Stendhal recited by Adriano Giannini, their stories are told by Antonio Paolucci, Paolo Portoghesi, Claudio Strinati and Micol Forti.
