KIDNAPPED: THE ABDUCTION OF EDGARDO MOTARA
In 1858, in the Jewish quarter of Bologna, the Popes soldiers burst into the home of the Mortara family. By order of the cardinal, they have come to take Edgardo, their seven-year-old son. The child had been secretly baptized by his nurse as a baby and the papal law is unquestionable: he must receive a Catholic education. Edgardos parents, distraught, will do anything to get their son back. Supported by public opinion and the international Jewish community, the Mortaras struggle quickly take a political dimension. But the Church and the Pope will not agree to return the child, to consolidate an increasingly wavering power
