Storyline
Frustrated with the direction of the church, Cardinal Bergoglio requests permission to retire in 2012 from Pope Benedict. Instead, facing scandal and self-doubt, the introspective Pope Benedict summons his harshest critic and future successor to Rome to reveal a secret that would shake the foundations of the Catholic Church.

Sin and Forgiveness: Moral Crossings & Sacred Grace
Bearing indelible moral crosses—searching for spiritual ferries between harrowing repentance and divine absolution.
A Jesuit missionary weeping as he steps on the bronze face of Christ; a grieving mother discovering her son’s killer was already "forgiven by God"; a brutal loan shark kneeling before a surrogate mother. From Silence and Secret Sunshine to Pieta and Ida, cinema interrogates the agonizing weight of divine grace.
