Father Lawrence (Ralph Fiennes) wants to resign. But resignation is not an option: The Pope has just died and the future of the Catholic Church depends on Lawrence. He must convene the College of Cardinals to select the papal successor; the conclave is his duty. The clergy assemble, all doors are sealed, and proceedings are set to begin. But with the arrival of an uninvited guest—the Cardinal of Kabul—Lawrence begins to suspect something is afoot. Based on Robert Harris’ novel, director Edward Berger (All Quiet on the Western Front)’s drama is a taut tale of power, corruption, betrayal, and a secret that can upend all Christendom. Led by Fiennes’ brilliant embodiment of the world-weary Lawrence, the stellar supporting cast includes Stanley Tucci, John Lithgow, and Lucian Msamati as rivalrous cardinals and Isabella Rossellini as Sister Agnes, the omniscient overseer of the Vatican’s guest chambers.
Expected in person guest.
