"Assisi (Italy), year 1179 In the long night of the Middle Ages, at the fall of the Roman Empire, Europe plunges into darkness. Soon an institution will emerge that will take up the torch and for a thousand years illuminate all of Christendom: the Roman Catholic Church. However, in the late twelfth and early thirteenth centuries, the papacy once again preaches the crusades against mighty Islam while facing one of its most serious crises: the Cathar and Waldensian heresy. Owner of large properties and lands donated by the faith of the believers – with whom they want to "buy" their place in the promised heaven – the Church accumulates great power and has stopped listening to people, who demand its renewal and return to the origins of Christianity. Thus, popes and cardinals will be more devoted to face the Holy Empire, after decades in dispute for dominance of the known world. It is in these moments when, providentially, a man emerges whose message of love and respect for all beings of Creation will become universal: Francis of Assisi (1181-1226)."
