The feature-length film Called, which incorporates elements of documentary filmmaking, tells the story of God’s power and love and the blessings that flow from a life with God. The film is conceived as a tribute to the priestly ministry and a call to pray for priestly vocations.

The film is set within a specific family that is visited by a Catholic priest at the invitation of the lady of the house. The conversation between the mother and son is eventually joined by the father—a confused anticlerical—and a defiant daughter.

Each of them directs their own questions, objections, and reproaches at the priest. These are more or less the typical platitudes of today’s disoriented people, whose minds have been dulled by secularism.

The priest patiently engages with them and answers each question. He tries to help the family find a path to understanding even difficult matters through various testimonies he is familiar with.

Gradually, through the specific life stories of real people, the film moves on to topics such as the Eucharist, the Sacrament of Reconciliation, baptism, the proclamation of God’s Word, prayers for healing, and exorcism.

We follow the stories of several people’s transformations as they discover the truth about life and themselves.
