Radio Interview: A producer of ‘Cabrini’ discusses what inspired the new film

Based on the life and work of the first American citizen to become a saint, “Cabrini” takes viewers into the world of turn-of-the-century New York as Mother Frances Xavier Cabrini takes on the work of ministering to poor immigrants, especially from her homeland of Italy. Catholic Review Editor Christopher Gunty talked with Leo Severino, one of the producers of the movie, about what inspired the film and how it addresses the dignity of every person. “Cabrini” opens worldwide in theaters on International Women’s Day, March 8.
