Pope Benedict XVI views film - Mary of Nazareth


May 17, 2012: It is not easy to delineate the figure of a mother, because it contains a wealth of life and it is difficult to describe it. It is even more challenging when it comes to Mary of Nazareth, a woman who is the mother of Jesus, the Son of God made man, said Pope Benedict XVI after viewing film - Mary of Nazareth directed by James Campiotti.

While thanking RaiFiction, Lux Vide and the production staff he also said “Mary of Nazareth presents the richness of a life when she says: "Here I am God." She is a mother who would have the desire to keep her son with her, but she knows that God is a God of faith and of love so great that she starts to accept and fulfill His mission. She said, "Here I am God" from the Annunciation to the Cross.” “A paradigm of how you can set your life on selfishness, closing in on yourself and material things, guided by evil, or the sense of the presence of a God who came and who remains in our midst and awaits us kindly and even if we fail asks us to follow him and to trust Him. Mary of Nazareth is the woman who said "Here I am" fully and totally to the divine will and this "yes" she repeated before suffering the loss of the Son which is bliss full and deep, He said.
