Mirabile Dictu: Vatican International Film Festival: "The Catholic Oscars"


The Mission of the Festival
The International Catholic Film Festival Mirabile Dictu is independent, conceived and created by Liana Marabini. It was founded in 2010 under the high patronage of the Pontifical Council for Culture, and aims to show the Church from a new perspective: glamourous and traditional at the same time.
Mirabile Dictu ("wonderful to tell") is a privileged place of encounter for actors, directors and film makers, gathered by the concern they may have for the history and the values of the Church.
The President of the Festival, Liana Marabini, is a producer, director and publisher. She consecrates her work to the history of the Church, and is particularly concerned with religious language and communication, something that emerges in the films she produces and the books she publishes.
