Cannes 2011 Nanni Moretti’s We have a Pope/Habemus Papam – Possible Premiere

Fiona March 23, 2011 Add a Comment

Italian director Nanni Moretti (Dear Diary from 1993) came up with a brilliant idea of making a movie that will show us that even popes need an advice from psychiatrist from time to time.

You have no idea what we're talking about, right? Well, we're actually here to continue our little chat about Cannes 2011 possible premieres, because we definitely hope that Nanni Moretti's latest project, titled Habemus Papam, or We have a Pope will make it to the Cannes!

Written by Moretti with Francesco Piccolo and Federica Pontremoli, We have a Pope is about a Pope, played by Michel Piccoli, who decides he doesn't want the job as soon as he's elected. Nanni Moretti will play a psychiatrist called in by the Vatican to resolve the problem. The film's title, Habemus Papam, comes from the words pronounced by the cardinal who presents the new pontiff to the crowd in St Peter's square.

Moretti already described his new movie by saying it “contains a painful core, but wrapped in a light tone. It's about a cardinal the conclave elects to be pope, who seems crushed by the weight and responsibility of his role.”

His pontiff, played by the French actor Michel Piccoli, “is left to come to terms with his depression and what seems to him like his personal inadequacy.” The pope's worried aides call in a psychiatrist, who is played by Moretti himself.

I actually like the question that comes from this one – is Benedict a depressive? I mean, we all know his papacy is complicated by the dark history of sexual abuse and the cover-up he had a hand in orchestrating. So, it's definitely interesting to hear that this kind of story is coming to a big screen.

We Have a Pope (Habemus Papam) will hit theaters in Italy on April 15, 2011.
