"Cabrini," an American biographical drama film, was released in 2024. Directed by Alejandro Gómez Monteverde and written by Rod Barr, the film depicts the life of Catholic missionary Francesca Cabrini, portrayed by Cristiana Dell’Anna. The narrative follows Cabrini, an Italian immigrant, upon her arrival in New York City in 1889, where she encounters disease, crime, and impoverished children. Despite facing challenges and resistance to her charity and business endeavors, Cabrini embarks on a courageous journey to convince the hostile mayor to provide housing and healthcare for society’s most vulnerable. The film delves into the sexism and anti-Italianism prevalent in New York City during the late 19th century.
