Preferisco il paradiso
- Drama
One of the most popular saints of all time, St. Philip Neri was widely known for his great charity, deep prayer life, and tremendous humor. Hoping to join St. Ignatius of Loyola's new order of Jesuits and be a missionary to India, Philip was instead guided by Providence to seek out the poor and abandoned youth of Rome to catechize them in the faith and help them find a better life. He became the founder of the religious congregation, the Oratory, that worked with the youth and also labored to re-evangelize a decadent Rome.
Saint Philip Neri: I Prefer Heaven is a 2010 drama film about one of history's most beloved saints. The movie chronicles Philip Neri's life of charity, humor, and faith as he worked with Rome's poorest youth and founded the Oratory, a religious congregation dedicated to spiritual renewal.
