Plot

'Cónclave' follows one of the oldest and most enigmatic rituals in the world: the election of a new Pope. When the Supreme Pontiff unexpectedly passes away, Cardinal Lawrence, played by Ralph Fiennes, takes on the responsibility of leading the conclave. However, as the most influential leaders of the Church gather in the sacred halls of the Vatican, Lawrence becomes entangled in a complex conspiracy and uncovers a secret that could shake the very foundations of the Church.

After the success of 'All Quiet on the Western Front', German director Edward Berger delves into the Vatican to offer us a captivating thriller filled with intrigue, conspiracies, and hidden pacts, where power and influence become the most valuable currencies. His previous film was one of the revelations at the 2023 Oscar Awards, with 9 nominations.

Ralph Fiennes stars in this thriller set in one of the world's most secretive and ancient rituals: a conclave. Joining Fiennes is a stellar cast: Stanley Tucci, John Lithgow, Isabella Rossellini, and Sergio Castellitto.

Based on the bestselling novel of the same name by Robert Harris ('The Officer and the Spy', 'The Ghost'), 'Cónclave' has been described by The Times as an "ecclesiastical version of 'House of Cards'." The film adaptation is the work of Oscar-nominated screenwriter Peter Straughan ('Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy').

This film was one of the most talked-about surprises at the prestigious Telluride Film Festival and once again captivated both critics and audiences during its presentation in the Special Presentations section of the Toronto Film Festival.
