ABout us
Aldeas Scholas Films is the film production arm of Scholas, the global educational movement founded by Pope Francis. Our mission is to explore the essence of human existence and our connections with ourselves, others, and the sacred through both documentary and fictional storytelling that transcends the screen.
We believe in the transformative power of cinema to unveil and celebrate the beauty and complexity of human experience. Our projects delve into the depths of life, addressing themes of pain, beauty and the act of creation, with the aim of fostering a deeper understanding and connection among diverse communities worldwide. Each of our productions is a journey that not only reveals the profound and often hidden aspects of human experience but also inspires us to see and live life differently.
We envision a world where the poetic language of film shapes our perception and appreciation of the human experience, fostering a more meaningful and interconnected existence. By inviting the greatest minds in cinema to explore the richness of the world's diversity, we seek to create a new cultural narrative, one that celebrates life as an art form and the beauty in every story.
