In a recent feature-length documentary, debuted at the Rome Film Festival, Pope Francis showed his support for same-sex civil unions.
This illustrates a striking shift in opinion from the Vatican as the pope stated that homosexual people possess the right to have a family as they are also children of the Lord.
The documentary, named ‘Francesco’ tackles issues closest to the pope’s heart such as poverty, migration, race and equality, amongst others.
