Netflix has announced plans for an original documentary series based on Pope Francis’ award-winning 2018 book “Sharing the Wisdom of Time”. It will be made available globally on the streamer in 2021.
The series will recount tales and lived experiences of elders (specifically those over 70) of various ethnicities, socio-economic backgrounds and religions around the globe.
These diverse experiences will be told through the eyes of young filmmakers under the age of 30 from the same country as the elders sharing their story.
The series will also feature Pope Francis in an exclusive interview, offering a unique point of view that will serve as the common thread throughout the four-episode series which hails from producer Simona Ercolani (“Dottori in Corsia”).
