It is a movie about coming to terms with your own mistakes and personal change. I think that the dialog from the movie truly captures the ever-changing nature of life:
Pope Francis: Nothing is static in nature or the universe, not even God.
Pope Benedict: God does not change.
Pope Francis: Yes, He does. He moves towards us.
Pope Benedict: (…) Where should we find Him if He’s always moving?
Pope Francis: On the journey?
