The Vatican revealed Pope Francis was initially hesitant to appear for Easter Sunday in Saint Peter's Square, which happened hours before he passed away.
The film dramatizes the process of selecting a new pope, mirroring the real-life events about to unfold in the Vatican about 15 to 20 days after Pope Francis's death.
Pope Francis had a history of health problems, including acute respiratory failure, pneumonia, bronchiectases, high blood pressure, and Type II diabetes.
