But did you know there's also a recent Pope Francis documentary film that has been streaming on since 2023?

The movie is called The Pope Answers and features him in a question-and-answer session with 10 young adults of different backgrounds and life experiences.

Filmed in Rome and shot in the Argentine pontiff's native Spanish, the documentary, "features upfront and honest conversations between one of the most influential people in the world and ten Spanish-speaking young adults between 20 and 25 years old who raise questions and concerns on a wide variety of topics, including: feminism, the role of women in the Church, reproductive rights, loss of faith, the migration crisis, LGBTQIA+ rights, abuse within the Church, racism and mental health. The meeting between the Pope and the ten young adults took place in June 2022 in the Pigneto, one of Rome's most eclectic neighbourhoods. The Pope speaks unreservedly and the result is an intense and dynamic conversation, founded on empathy, curiosity, respect and mutual learning."

At the meeting's conclusion, Pope Francis said, "I learned a lot from you. I thank you for the good you have done to me."
