The Conclave is a 2006 Canadian/German film production directed by Christoph Schrewe.
The script was written by Paul Donovan and the main cast included Manu Fullola, Brian Blessed and James Faulkner.
[1] The plot centers on the conclave of 1458, which took place five years after the fall of Constantinople to the Turks.
The story material was sourced from a diary written by Silvius Aeneas Piccolomini, the only cardinal to ever record the secret proceedings of a papal conclave, and who was himself elected Pope Pius II in that Conclave.
The Conclave hinges on the drama surrounding a 27-year-old Spaniard, Cardinal Rodrigo Borgia (later Pope Alexander VI), as he struggles to save both his career and his life.
