What Is Saint Rita About?
The premise of Saint Rita without spoilers.
In 14th‑century Cascia, Rita Liotti marries, bears two children, and confronts a harsh, patriarchal world. After losing her husband and children, she embraces a mission of peace, takes religious vows, and ultimately becomes Saint Rita.
