At least I think it's Italian but it may be Latin

Cresimati - is it confirmations?

It is Italian, Gillian

cresimare - to confirm

la cresima - confirmation

fare la cresima - to be confirmed

"cresimati" is the masculine plural past participle of the verb - Those who have been confirmed

Could you give the context please? Then we can see if it is being used as a noun.

Thanks Tricia and Elizabeth

It's from a list of LDS films

I thought confirmation was likely, but then wondered if cresimati might be the same as battesimi, like our christenings/baptisms.
