The story is set in late 19th-century France and Italy, centering on an elaborate scam involving the Vatican. The plot kicks off when a group of swindlers comes up with a scheme to kidnap the Pope and replace him with a double. They spread rumors that the “real” Pope is being held prisoner in the Vatican cellars, and they seek ransoms from the faithful to ensure his release. This absurd premise sets the stage for a darkly comedic exploration of faith, greed, and deception.
