"Young Francis" Logline: A privileged young man in medieval Italy
turns his back on a life of revelry and riches to dedicate his life
to helping the most needy. Summary In the medieval town of Assisi,
the wife of a wealthy cloth merchant is experiencing long, painful
labour. A mysterious BEGGAR advises her to go to a stable to give
birth, and while others think him mad, PICA di BERNARDONE, the
woman with child, agrees. The baby is born soon after. The Beggar
asks to hold the child and presses a cross on the child's shoulder
telling the mother her son will do great things. When PIETRO di
BERNARDONE returns from a selling trip to France, he is filled with
joy at the sight of his son. He vows to give the child everything
he could ask for, promising a life of riches and indulgences. In
honor of his many business dealings in France and his wife's
origins, he nicknames the child FRANCESCO.
