Ellen Coolidge Burke Branch Library - Meeting Room

Please join us for the screening of a 2025 Golden-Globe winning film that delves into the clandestine process of electing a new pope following the sudden death of the incumbent.

The narrative centers on Cardinal Thomas Lawrence, portrayed by Ralph Fiennes, who is tasked with overseeing the conclave amidst a backdrop of intense rivalries and hidden agendas among the cardinals. As the election unfolds, the film exposes the intricate power dynamics and moral dilemmas within the Vatican, culminating in a surprising revelation about a mysterious latecomer, Cardinal Vincent Benitez. With a supporting cast that includes Stanley Tucci, John Lithgow, and Isabella Rossellini, “Conclave” offers a suspenseful exploration of faith, ambition, and secrecy within the highest echelons of the Catholic Church. Rated PG. 2024
