Showing at Firstsite Cinema – Kidnapped (12A)!

Kidnapped follows the true story of how a six-year-old Jewish boy, Edgardo Mortara, was taken by the Catholic Church.

The year is 1858. Following Pope Pius IX’s orders, soldiers burst into the Mortara family’s Bologna home to forcibly remove their six-year-old son Edgardo, because they’d heard he had been baptised.

The distraught Mortara family try desperately to get Edgardo back, and the scandal soon makes its way across the country and Europe at large.
