**The world needs more people like the Pope & President Buhari....cos plenty heads need resetting.
Pope Francis will mark his acting debut in a new religious film
aimed at children in which he will tell them 'how and where to find Jesus',
Italian producers said on Monday
Beyond the Sun, from
Rome-based distribution and production company AMBI, is described as a family
adventure based on the Gospels 'where children from different cultures emulate
the apostles while searching for Jesus in the world around them'.
The project, financed by
AMBI co-founders Andrea Iervolino and Lady Monika Bacardi, tells the story of a
group of children 'learning from their experiences in a forest using love, hope
and faith', the company said in its website.
All profits from the film will be donated to Argentinean charities El Alemendro and Los Hogares de Cristo, which aid at-risk children and young adults.
The film ends 'with an
epilogue from Pope Francis telling children how and where to find Jesus', AMBI
said.
Bacardi said, 'It is a
great honor for Andrea and I to have the opportunity to work with His Holiness,
Pope Francis, to spread the awareness of his message, through this film.'
However, a Vatican
spokesman played down Pope Francis' role in the movie telling Mail Online that
the pope 'is not an actor'.
AMBI said filming would
start later in 2016 and the company will oversee worldwide distribution for
'Beyond the Sun' through its Los Angeles-based international sales division.
