| During the Second WorId War, racist Iaws in ltaIy forced thousands of Jews to fIee their cities in search of safe haven. A few hundred of these refugees, facing dangerous obstacIes along the way, reached Assisi, the city of St. Francis. Even with the city under German occupation, all of those who came to Assisi were saved. Under secret orders by Pope Pius XIl to do aIl that was humanIy possibIe to save the Jews, the Bishop of Assisi, Mons. Giuseppe Placido NicoIini, began the operation that wouId open up monasteries and convents to hide the persecuted. Priests, nuns, the town's mayor, and many of Assisi's citizens aII worked together in this hidden network. With interviews of some of those directly invoIved, historicaI footage of the era, and Pope John PauI II's message from Assisi to "waIk the paths of peace," this inspirational story is toId. |
