Cabrini
Francesca Cabrini builds a hospital system out of nothing but will.
- PG-13
- 2h 22m
Alejandro Monteverde’s portrait of the first American saint is a film about immigrant New York, tuberculosis, and a woman who would not accept “no” from bishops or mayors. PG-13 for period hardship and illness. PureRated flags it for teens and up; younger children may find the tenement scenes heavy.
Cast Cristiana Dell'Anna, David Morse, John Lithgow
Directed by Alejandro Monteverde

A builder’s film. Faith here looks like brick, ledgers, and refusing to leave the sick.
Cabrini holds a 7.4 / 10 from 18,000 IMDb ratings — families keep coming back to the craft, not just the message.
Cabrini is 91% on the Tomatometer — certified-fresh territory. Critics praise the sincerity and the lack of cynicism.
Common Sense suggests age 13+ for Cabrini. Parents say the conversations after the credits are the real value.
