 Conclave is a religious thriller that explores corruption in the catholic church. The narrative follows Cardinal Lomeli who overseas the election and discovers hidden truth. This film represents Todorovs theory of equilibrium as the dis-equilibrium is shown through the Popes death and all the hidden actions and the equilibrium is restored through electing a new pope but it has a secret twist.

This aligns with David Gauntlets idea of identity as he claims that the media provide tools  that audiences use to shape themselves through Cher's fashion sense and social life. The film also incorporates Mulvey's male gaze through the centred shot...
