Pope Francis wanted to send a strong signal to countries where the church is opposed to unions between homosexuals. And he did it through the documentary “Francisco”, which premiered this Wednesday at the Rome Film Festival.

“Homosexuals,” said the Pope, “are children of God and are entitled to a family. No one should be expelled or unhappy about it. What we have to do is create a law on civil unions. I fought for them, ”said Francisco.

The documentary’s director, Russian Evgeny Afineevsky, says that the Pope’s intention is not to change the doctrine of the Church, but to end discrimination and recognize that everyone deserves equal rights.

This Thursday (22), the director will receive, in the Vatican, an award for the dissemination of humanitarian issues.

Pope Francis was often criticized by the church’s ultra-conservative wing, and even had to soften his statements. Now, his clarity and courage are being recognized by many religious.

In the last four bishops’ synods, the Pope’s opening to homosexuals has met with strong opposition from the world episcopate. But this Wednesday, the repercussions, especially among the Jesuits, were very positive. And in Germany, a bishop has already informed that he will bless homo-affective unions.
