About the film

ALFREDO'S FIRE is a powerful and timely documentary that tells the untold story of Alfredo Ormando, a gay Italian writer who set himself on fire at the Vatican to protest the Church's condemnation of homosexuality. 
Shaped by Alfredo's own writings, as well as rich cinematography, and provocative interviews with his family, friends and intimate companions, the film reveals Alfredo's longing and struggle to reconcile his faith and sexuality.
