Conclave

Event information

When the Pope dies, a group of cardinals gather in Rome to shut themselves away and decide on a successor. Cardinal Thomas Lawrence (Ralph Fiennes) is charged with mediating the discussion, no easy job as a number of warring factions jostle for supremacy. Much like many secular political campaigns, there are some nasty surprises lurking in the wings. While the men argue, the true heart of the film comes from Isabella Rossellini, playing a spirited nun who holds a secret. The settings may be rarefied but the bickering, humour and backstabbing are hugely enjoyable and gripping, as are the performances by Fiennes and co-star Stanley Tucci.
