Many well-known voices in the Catholic Church today are also part of the film.
According to the movie promoters, “Carlo Acutis: Roadmap to Reality explores the life and legacy of the soon-to-be Saint Carlo Acutis and how he navigated the modern world.
“It tackles urgent technology-related questions, examining how the virtual landscape threatens our fundamental understanding of what it means to be human.
“The film also tracks the journey of a group of high school students who embark on a two-week pilgrimage from North Dakota to Italy to visit Carlo’s tomb. A requirement for their pilgrimage: disengage from technology and leave their phones at home (for two weeks).”

“In a world losing itself to screens, teenage mystic Carlo Acutis saw beyond our social media-addicted society and offered an answer—if we’re willing to listen. Carlo Acutis: Roadmap to Reality explores the life of the first millennial saint while following teens on a phone-free pilgrimage to his tomb, immersing them in his story, his passion for Christ, and a search for meaning in a digital age,” notes producers of the film.
This film will get people talking!In a recent survey of WV Catholics, it was reported that the overwhelming majority cherish their faith, but only 18% feel comfortable talking about it, said Fr. John Rice in a recent homily at Mass for the Chancery staff.
