Lost Road of The Popes
Two Friars are Interviewed in a New Documentary
Posted by Fr. Gabriel Gillen, O.P. on July 01, 2010
This video, now available on DVD, is a behind the scenes look at the creation of the first high definition documentary ever shot in Rome. Fr. Dominic Legge, O.P. and Fr. Gabriel O'Donnell, O.P. are interviewed in this documentary which tells the true story of the Catholic Church's stunning recovery after the Sack of Rome in 1527. It describes the most profound urban and religious comeback in history. Starting with Rome in ruin and the Catholic Church under siege, "Lost Road of The Popes: Via Papale" explores the lives of six powerful Popes - and recounts how they took on the task of first rebuilding, then glorifying the new Rome. "Lost Road of the Popes" unfolds the miracle of this remarkable renaissance. It describes how Rome and its Papal rulers not only survived, but were inspired by a holy road to create the magnificent monuments, churches, art and architecture that helped to exalt and save the Catholic Church. And why that once powerful road has been...forgotten. See The Lost Road of the Popes homepage.
