The death of a pope is a world-changing event, especially if you are one of the select few who is tasked with selecting a successor. Two-time Academy Award nominee Ralph Fiennes stars as “Cardinal Lawrence”, a senior member of the Catholic clergy in Rome who, in the wake of the current pope’s demise, is given the responsibility of convening the College of Cardinals and holding an election to decide who will lead the largest Christian organization on the globe – an election that takes place in a secret, sequestered ceremony known as a “conclave”. Complicating matters further is the fact that the former pope had secrets that begin coming to light as the group members make their cases for who the new pope should be. Moreover, Lawrence himself is a strong candidate who may have to face-off with a challenger while the fate and future direction of The Church hangs in the balance.
Based on the novel by Robert Harris and featuring an acclaimed cast, Conclave is sure to appeal to fans of films like 12 Angry Men – a film that takes viewers to an inner sanctum where intense discussions are had, disparate opinions and ambitions clash, and the final outcome is uncertain until the very end.
