CONCLAVE
UK, 2024, Drama

After the unexpected death of the beloved Pope, Cardinal Lawrence (Ralph Fiennes) is tasked with running the conclave, which means assembling cardinals from the world over to secretly select a new pope.

But once the Catholic Church's most powerful leaders have gathered and are locked together in the depths of the Vatican, Lawrence uncovers a trail of deep secrets left in the dead Pope's wake - secrets which could shake the foundations of the Church.

"Sumptuously produced and superbly acted." – Counterfire
