Plot:	Director Carlo Carlei manages to get to the core of the truth with this touching biopic that relives the tradition of religious filmmaking that benefits too from a powerhouse performance by Sergio Castellitto, one of Italy most beloved contemporary stars.
Overview:	Sergio Castellitto (Luc Besson's THE BIG BLUE) stars in this compelling religious biography of Francesco Forgione (1887-1968), better known to Catholic believers as the modern day saint Padre Pio. Directed by Carlo Carlei (THE FLIGHT OF THE INNOCENT), this made-for-TV film dramatizes the capuchin friar priest's intense devotion, which manifested itself in the appearance of the stigmata--the wounds suffered by Christ at Calvary--for over fifty years. Based on the book by Renzo Allegri, the award-winning PADRE PIO deals with seeming religious miracles in a skeptical modern age and features Jürgen Prochnow (DUNE) and Adolfo Lastretti (MASSACRE IN ROME) in supporting roles.
