Plot Synopsis

CALL ME FRANCIS is a four-part biographical series that chronicles Pope Francis' life, his controversial political leanings, his remarkable humanitarian work and his ascent to Papacy. The series opens with the early years of Jorge Mario Bergoglio (the future Pope Francis) in Buenos Aires in the 1960s and depicts his journey through the height of Argentina's "Dirty Wars" during the '70s and '80s, culminating in his appointment as Pope Francis, the first Latin American Pope in history, in 2013. Originally released in Italy in 2015 as a 100-minute film, Netflix released all four episodes of this series on Friday, December 16, 2016 at 3:01am ET/12:01am PT.
