Rok 1858, żydowska dzielnica Bolonii. Pod osłoną nocy Gwardia Papieska wdziera się do domu rodziny Mortarów. Na rozkaz kardynała mają zabrać Edgarda, ich siedmioletniego syna, i wysłać do Rzymu. Dziecko zostało w tajemnicy ochrzczone przez swoją opiekunkę, a prawo papieskie jest nieubłagane: musi otrzymać katolickie wychowanie. Zrozpaczeni rodzice Edgarda zrobią wszystko, żeby odzyskać syna. Podejmują walkę, która szybko nabiera wymiaru politycznego. Jednak Kościół i papież nie zgadzają się na zwrot dziecka, chcąc umocnić swoją coraz bardziej słabnącą władzę… (Best Film)

Based on an actual event. Kidnapped is set in the second half of the 19th century when, from today’s perspective, the Church was still a regular criminal enterprise. The film’s viewer-pleasing editing comprehensively captures the perception of events by all involved parties – the Jewish parents whose child is forcibly abducted by the Church in order to convert him to Christianity; the abducted child’s brother, who stubbornly believes in his rescue even after many years have passed; the Church representatives who believe they are exercising divine power; and the Pope himself, who thinks he is accountable only to God. A devastating injustice perpetrated by a heartless organisation blinded by power, the fruit of which is separation, suffering and the loss of family ties and even one’s own identity. [Cannes FF]

A very sad true story of a six-year-old boy who was torn from the arms of his Jewish family to convert to the Christian faith, one of monstrous practices of the Church. The family has been trying for years to get the boy back home, but to no avail, and little Edgardo has a difficult, almost impossible task ahead of him: to remain faithful to his family and his faith despite years of brainwashing, which results in his utter ambivalence. The most heartbreaking scene is the reunion years later with his mother, who is on her deathbed. The film has a fantastic production design, the performances of all the main actors are admirable, my only criticism would be the running time (I would have cut it by 20 minutes), and the dramatic music is a bit too religious at times, but otherwise it is definitely worth seeing. [Festival de Cannes 2023]

Things have never been easy with some Catholics, all the more so when the going got hard. The film tells the story of a kidnapped Jewish boy who was born in the wrong time under the wrong circumstances. As a premise for a big drama set against the backdrop of the Italian Risorgimento, it looks promising. Why then did I find the often unnecessarily overblown music the most dramatic? The boy experiences a lot in the first act, but after the first sermon, only the traditional brainwashing begins, which is not bad by any means, but gives little insight into the protagonist's psyche. The potentially interesting coming of age at the mercy of the Vatican is skipped altogether, as the film wants to have time for the courtroom drama and the gradual decline of this bankrupt state, and in the process, the main character literally fades away.
