Despite the potential for a compelling historical drama, the movie lacks depth, with thin characters and an absence of convincing conflict. Monteverde's attempt to separate Christian ideals from political realities dilutes the potency of Cabrini's story, resulting in a lackluster portrayal of the saint's journey.
