[:mt]L-ewwel film dwar Chiara u l-Moviment tal-Fokolari ser jixxandar fuq ir-RAI UNO fil-ħarifa li ġejja.
“Ħolma u fidi ta’ żagħżugħa jistgħu jibdlu d-dinja?” Din hi l-bażi li fuqha d-direttur Taljan Giacomo Campiotti qed jibni l-film dwar Chiara Lubich, l-għalliema minn Trento li meta kellha ftit aktar minn għoxrin sena għexet it-tbatija u l-qtigħ il-qalb li ġabet it-Tieni Gwerra Dinjija. Lubich ħassitha msejħa biex tibni dinja aħjar, dinja aktar magħquda, u minn dak iż-żmien ‘il quddiem l-għan tagħha kien li tibni pontijiet bejn il-bnedmin kollha, bla ebda differenza bejn razza, nazzjon jew twemmin reliġjuż,
Dan l-ewwel TV film dwar Chiara li hu biografija ser jiffoka fuq is-snin tal-bidu tal-Moviment, bejn l-1943 u l-1950. Il-produzzjoni hi ħidma flimkien tar-RAI Fiction u Casanova Multimedia u ser tkun immexxija minn Luca Barbareschi. Cristiana Capotondi, attriċi Taljan stabbilita ser tagħmel il-parti ta’ Chiara u fil-kast hemm ukoll Sofia Panizzi u Valentina Ghelfi. Ix-shooting tal-film ser jibda fi Trento fil-ġranet li ġejjien u ser jibda b’dik l-ewwel istorja li Chiara stess kienet tirrakkonta dwar meta “l-gwerra kienet fl-aqwa tagħha” u “kollox kien qed jiġġarraf”, u baqa’ biss Alla.
Fil-press release dwar il-film wieħed isib miktub: “Il-qawwa f’figura bħalma hi dik ta’ Chiara illum twassalna biex inħarsu lejn l-ieħor/l-oħra bħala opportunità, bħala rigal, bħala xi ħadd li jġorr fih żerriegħa tal-verità, li rridu nagħtuh valur u nħobbuh. Biex il-bnedmin jgħixu bħal aħwa hemm bżonn tad-djalogu u tal-paċi. Il-messaġġ ta’ Chiara mhuwiex biss għad-dinja Kattolika. Hi tat sehemha biex ikun magħruf il-valur u r-rwol tal-mara u dan mhux biss fl-istituzzjonijiet tal-Knisja, imma fuq kollox ‘l barra minnhom”.
Dan il-film ser jirrakkonta l-istorja tas-snin tal-bidu, tas-snin ta’ fondazzjoni meta Chiara għarfet li Alla kien qed juriha t-triq li kellha timxi fiha u hi wieġbet. In–numru ta’ nies li mxew warajha beda dejjem jiżdied u mill-Italja wasal sad-dinja kollha. Dan il-film ser ikun ukoll vjaġġ ta’ ċirkustanzi storiċi, soċjali u ekkleżjali li Chiara għexet matul it-Tieni Gwerra Dinjija, fl-ewwel snin ta’ wara l-gwerra u fis-snin ta’ qabel il-Konċilju.
Id-direttur u l-producers tal-film jixtiequ li toħroġ ukoll l-istorja “tat-tfajla revoluzzjonarja li kienet taqsam dak li kellha ma’ min hu fil-bżonn”. Hekk intqal fl-aħbarijiei ANSA tas-27 ta’ Lulju, li komplew jgħidu li “hi kienet taqra l-Vanġelu mingħajr il-preżenza ta’ saċerdot, li kienet meqjusa perikoluża għas-soċjetà ta’ żmienna tant li l-ħidma tagħha kellha tkun eżaminata mis-Sant Uffizzju. L-akbar prova ta’ ħajjitha kienet meta ġiet mitluba tabbanduna t-tmexxija tal-Moviment tal-Fokolari. Imma l-ġebla li tefgħet fl-għadira ħadd ma seta’ jwaqqafha u kompliet toħloq ċrieki dejjem aktar wesgħin. Tant hu hekk li snin wara, meta l-Papa Pawlu VI ġie biex jirregolarizza l-Moviment tal-Fokolari, dan kien ġa nxtered mad-dinja kollha”

A film about Chiara and the beginnings of the Focolare Movement will be aired on RAI UNO, the flagship Italian TV channel, in Autumn.
“Can the power of a girl’s dream and her faith change the world ?” This is the keynote on which the Italian director Giacomo Campiotti bases the film in which he narrates the story of Chiara Lubich, the young teacher from Trent, who in her early twenties lived the hardships and anguish caused by the Second World War. Lubich felt called to build a better world, a more united one, and since then she set herself the goal to build bridges between people, irrespective of their race, nation or religious belief.
This biography TV movie, the first to be made on Chiara Lubich will focus on the early years, those between 1943 and 1950. It is a co-production by Rai Fiction and Casanova Multimedia, produced by Luca Barbareschi. Cristiana Capotondi, an established Italian actress will play Chiara in the movie, while Sofia Panizzi and Valentina Ghelfi will also be in the cast. The shooting of the film will begin in Trent in a few days’ time, and it will start with “the times when the war raged” and “everything collapsed” and only God remained, as Chiara herself related in one of the very first stories about the Focolare Movement’s beginning.
In the press release issued about the movie one reads: “Today, the tenacity in a figure like Chiara makes us consider the other person as an opportunity, a gift, a bearer of a seed of truth to be valued and loved, no matter how far apart we may be. Universal brotherhood is a prerequisite for dialogue and peace. Chiara’s message does not belong only to the Catholic world. She has contributed towards the value and role of women not only in ecclesiastical institutions but also and above all outside them”.
This movie will relate the story of the very first years, the foundation years, when Chiara realised that God was showing her the way to be followed and she responded, followed by an ever increasing number of people, who took roads that from Italy led to the whole world. It will also be a journey that speaks of the historical, social and ecclesial circumstances that Chiara experienced during the Second World War, the very first years after the war and the pre-conciliar years with ferments that stirred Catholicity.
The director and producers intend and want to relate all about “the young revolutionary girl, who shared everything with those in need”. ANSA news stated this on July 27 and continued to say that “she read the Gospel without the presence of a priest; she was considered as harmful to the society of her time and so she was forced to report about her work to the Holy Office. She passed through the most difficult test of her life when she was asked to abandon the Focolare leadership. But the stone she threw into the pond could not be stopped and created wider circles, so years later, when Paul VI came to rehabilitate the Focolare Movement, it had already spread throughout the world”.Stefania Tanesini
