Photography Exhibition at the Vatican on How to Improve the Lives of Women

A new exhibition at the Vatican examines the ways the Church could improve the lives of women. ‘Women’s Cry’ is 26 photos taken from around the world. Organizers say the images tell stories of strength, desperation and profound hope. Women’s Cry is on display at Saint Peter’s Square during the month of May. Creator and Curator of the Photographic Exhibition, Women’s Cry, Lia Beltrami, joins to tell us about this exhibition and what the main purpose of it is. She discusses how Pope Francis’ encyclical “All Brothers” inspired this exhibition. Women’s Cry is part of the international social campaign “Emotions to Generate Change” and in the coming months it can be seen in other cities, including New York. Beltrami shares more about that.
