I admire Joseph Ratzinger . As wise teologian , as defender of the faith, as builder of fair perspective about Christian life, as idealist, as admirable writer.
As pope... .
His mission was not a choice but a pure sacrifice.
His work , effort, struggles , hope and full good intentions are clashed in a war against a too ambiguous enemy.
The documentary reflects, in beautiful - precise way, this facts, this reality, defining the portrait of a tragic figure, out of his library and desk, in middle of a changing world, with a high responsability, giving his answers to its challenges but not having, in so many occasions, the science to read the questions in proper manner.
A portrait.
A necessary one.
In some measure, an eulogy.
And definition of our society.
