Plot Sypnosis:

From one of Italy's most revered directors, Marco Bellocchio (The Traitor, Fists in the Pocket), comes Kidnapped, the true story of Edgardo Mortara. Mortara was a young Jewish boy living in Bologna, Italy, when in 1858, after being secretly baptized, was forcibly taken from his family by the Pope, to be raised Catholic. His parents' struggle to free their son became part of a larger political battle that pitted the papacy against forces of democracy and Italian unification.
