DramaCrimeThriller
A Vatican priest discovers Dante's original Divine Comedy manuscript. When asked to authenticate it, writer Nick Tosches steals it, while a parallel story follows Dante's quest to create his masterpiece.
VIBE
This is a deeply intellectual and atmospheric slow-burn, weaving a tense, profound narrative. Expect a visually stark, neo-noir tinged journey through themes of art, legacy, and obsession. It feels like a contemplative, intriguing dive into historical and moral complexities, perfect for a focused, late-night watch.
