Santa Subito

Summer 1978. Young Ernest moves to Rome with a compelling inheritance: to have Sister Merita, his deceased mother's best friend, canonized. In Rome, he is helped by fixer Livio and his daughter Stefania, beautiful as a Madonna. Ernest stays in their dilapidated palazzo while the duo tries to get the sister's file through the complex Vatican procedure. He loses his money to Livio and his heart to Stefania. But then Sister Merita's file miraculously takes off in a spectacular way. A story that is as cheerful as it is moving, full of pace and humor, about wonderful alliances in the Eternal City, intrigues around the Vatican enclave and con artists with a big heart.
