The Vatican is both the heart of the Catholic Church and the centre of power of an institution that has wielded political influence until the very recent past. In its nearly 2000-year history, entire royal dynasties, states and countries have emerged and vanished again, while the Vati-can itself managed to weather the storms of history. No other state has been able to sustain its power so steadily. This film sets out to explain why its continuity persists undisputed to this day. The papal power is founded on the people who work there as servants of God. But what do we really know about those who keep the machinery going and who guard its hidden secrets and sacrifice their lives for the Vatican? This documentary provides an insight into this mystical place via its people and their stories.
This prime-time documentary sheds light into the Vatican universe and the people who ultimately ensure its permanence.
