Synopsis

Next to a journalist (Silvia Abascal) who is writing a book about Pope Francis (Darío Gandinetti) we go through the exciting life of this priest, getting to know Jorge's permanent fight against poverty, prostitution, laboral exploitation, drugs, and corruption, during all his life. When he was a teenager he discovered his passion for God, that would lead him to become the latest Pope. He has the same warmth, good humor and wisdom that he is still showing since he was elected as the new Pope in 2013.
