Frate Leone 【Official - 2024】
Leone joined the early Franciscan community shortly after its inception and became Francis’s constant shadow. He was present during the most pivotal moments of the Saint's life, most notably on in 1224. It was there that Leone witnessed Francis receiving the Stigmata , making him one of the few direct witnesses to the miracle. A Scribe of the Spirit
Frate Leone is a reverent, slow-burn character study best suited for audiences interested in spiritual cinema or Franciscan lore. It succeeds as a companion piece to more traditional saint biopics, though its austere style won’t appeal to everyone. frate leone
