In the Jubilee Year, the protagonists of this story are the homeless men and women living on the margins, whose stories are not so different from our own. In the background, a quiet humanity moves forward, step by step, toward the Holy Door of St. Peter’s Basilica. In this ongoing dialogue of light and shadow, of falling and redemption, of fragility and hope, a threshold is crossed not just a sacred one, but the threshold of the present self ushering in a new beginning: the Eighth Day.
