Synopsis

Bakhita was born in Sudan, but as a child was kidnapped and enslaved, enduring abuse before being sold to a Venetian merchant named Federico Marin. She traveled to Italy and became a nanny to Marin's daughter, Aurora, who had lost her mother at birth. Despite her kindness, Bakhita faces prejudice from the other servants and villagers because of her African heritage. With the help of a local priest, she finds faith and converts to Catholicism, eventually requesting to join the Canossian order of nuns. Marin resists, unwilling to relinquish her as a servant. This leads to a highly publicized legal battle that sparks public outcry and ultimately determines Bakhita's fate. She becomes a nun, and was declared a saint by Pope John Paul II in 2000.
