Based on Thomas Mann’s The Holy Sinner, this outrageous medieval comedy follows a lowly orphan born of forbidden love, whose meteoric rise takes him from knighthood to royal glory - only to marry his own mother, spend seventeen years chained to a rock, and improbably become the first truly forgiving pope. A wild, irreverent tale of ambition, absurd twists of fate, and the ridiculous lengths destiny will go to turn one teenager into an unforgettable legend.
