Anthony Hopkins, Jonathan Price, Juan Minway | An intimate story of the most spectacular change of power in the last 2000 years. Cardinal Bergoglio (Jonathan Price), frustrated by the leadership of the church, requests authorization from Pope Benedict XVI (Anthony Hopkins) to retire in 2012. Faced with scandal and uncertainty, Pope Benedict XVI, introspective, calls on his most bitter critic and future heir to Rome to reveal the secret that breaks the foundations of the Catholic Church. Behind the walls of the Vatican, the battle between tradition and success, guilt and forgiveness, begins as the two very different men clash to find common ground and build a future for a billion followers around the world. Inspired by real events.
