From Paolo Sorrentino, director of the Academy Award®-winning film 'The Great Beauty,' 'The Young Pope' tells the controversial story of the beginning of Pius XIII's pontificate. Born Lenny Belardo, he is a complex and conflicted character, so conservative in his choices as to border on obscurantism, yet full of compassion towards the weak and poor. The first American pope, Pius XIII is a man of great power who is stubbornly resistant to the Vatican courtiers, unconcerned with the implications to his authority. The ten-episode series stars two-time Academy Award® nominee Jude Law as Pius XIII, and Academy Award® winner Diane Keaton as Sister Mary, a nun from the U.S. now living in Vatican City. (HBO Europe)

The Young Pope (2016)
A delightfully satirical drama that takes place in the untraditional setting of the Vatican Church. Sorrentino puts his money on symbolism and the visual side, right from the beginning. Law is fantastic and his Pius XIII is obviously just getting warmed up. I can’t wait to see how is this going to turn out… An emotional story about life. It doesn’t matter whether you are religious or not. Cynical scenes blend naturally with spirituality and the brilliance lies in Sorrentino’s way of handling the whole story and in fitting soundtrack. Because it is self-standing miniseries, the creators didn’t have to hold back and were able to conclude everything that they wanted to tell us. Another high point of the year, and again from HBO.
