Promoting values through film and art.
"We warmly exhort all men of goodwill (...) to use every means in their power (...), to make of the cinema a valuable auxiliary of instruction and education rather than of destruction and ruin of souls."
Encyclical letter of Pope Pius XI

The Apocalypse of St. John
​
Feature Film Program
Pascendi supports The Apocalypse of St. John, a feature-length documentary saga exploring the Book of Revelation in the light of history and current events, grounded in the traditional interpretation of the Church.
Part One
The first part of the saga received a nationwide theatrical release across the United States and was officially released in theaters in more than 20 countries worldwide.
In consideration of its support for the film, Pascendi was granted certain distribution rights, including:
-
Commercial theatrical distribution rights in the United States.
-
Worldwide rights to authorize complimentary, non-commercial screenings and access for charitable, religious, educational, pastoral, and accessibility purposes.
Through Pascendi’s Complimentary Access Program, qualifying churches, schools, universities, ministries, nonprofit organizations, charitable institutions, communities, and individuals may apply for free access to the film.
​
Complimentary licenses and individual viewing access are subject to eligibility requirements, prior approval, and the applicable program terms.
​
Part Two
Pascendi is currently supporting the production of the second and final part of The Apocalypse of St. John. This new film will continue the documentary saga and bring the project to its full conclusion.
We invite you to support this mission and help make the final chapter possible.
Pascendi is proud to announce the upcoming launch of the First International Catholic Short Film Festival, organized in association with Caravel Films—a global initiative to promote faith, truth, and beauty through the art of cinema.
​
Filmmakers from around the world will be invited to share powerful stories faithful to Catholic values and tradition, offering a unique platform for creativity at the service of the Gospel.

More details will be announced soon. Stay tuned.
