FROM THE DIRECTOR OF THE OSCAR-WINNING ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT

"An entertainingly juicy adaptation of Robert Harris’s novel" Guardian ★ ★ ★ ★

The Pope has died. Cardinal Lawrence must lead the Conclave to select the new leader of the Catholic world. But as high-ranking cardinals gather, he discovers sides have been drawn and secrets that might destroy a future pope, perhaps even the Church itself, threaten to be revealed.

Following his Oscar-winning success with All Quiet on the Western Front, Edward Berger presents us with another tale of conflict, albeit one where battles are waged in hushed tones in hallowed hallways. Fiennes, Tucci and John Lithgow make the most of Peter Straughan’s (Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy) screenplay, based on Robert Harris’ 2016 novel, with Isabella Rossellini making a cameo as the formidable Sister Agnes.
