The film is a drama showing all the personal and ecclesiatical drama as the College of Cardinals Conclave to select a new pope. Reflecting society, the College is divided into conservative and liberal factions who are seeking to keep or retake control of the Papacy.  The Dean of the College, Cardinal Thomas Lawrence (Fiennes) is charged with the administration of the  Conclave. In addition to managing the nuts and bolts of the gathering, Dean Thomas must handle a mysterious and unknown new Cardinal, gossips of malfeasance and personal indiscretion within the College, political intrigue with the voting as well as conflict outside the walls of the Conclave. In addition Lawrence faces doubts about the church and his calling. Co-starring with Fiennes are Stanley Tucci (Bellini,) John Lithgow ( Tremblay,) and Isabella Rossellini (Sister Agnes.) Faith Spotted: The place of humility, specifically to protect against the temptation of pride and power.  See Philippians 2, Colossians 3, 1 Peter 5. Certainty in issues of theology is an indication of a lack of humility. The place of doubt within living faithfully. Servant Leadership vs. Being Served as Leader.       ","author_name":"Faithspotting","author_url":"http:\/\/faithspotting.libsyn.com\/website","html":"
