Description
I finally saw the movie "Conclave," and really enjoyed it. As you probably know, it is about the contentious election of a pope in a conclave of the college of cardinals. The movie, however, never explains what the word conclave actually means or how and why that papal electoral procedure began. This episode will remedy that omission.
The intro music is from the Academy Award nominated overture to the movie "Conclave" by the composer Volker Bertelmann
