It's the end of the 15th Century, and the powerful clergy are starting to feel the Renaissance and humanism breathing down their necks – some even dare call into question the existence of demons and witches! But not Inquisitor Heinrich Institoris, who has monastic pupil Richard's mom burned at the stake for resisting a randy friar. Rich Augsburg merchant Jakob Fugger adopts Richard, who learns the art of intrigue at the German banker's side, even helping to make sure the right candidate gets elected pope. One day, he may be ready to confront Institoris and the Holy Inquisition... (Filmfest München)
