sequestered

Sister Agnes runs Casa Santa Marta inside the Vatican, where the cardinals are sequestered during the conclave.

“The root of it is still quite traditional and patriarchal in that these powerful women have to be sequestered from men and are essentially living in a convent,” Williams says.

Going back to my question about participants talking about how they voted and related topics, it seems to me in a show like this that even though you do have people sequestered in a pod and you take away their phones for a couple of weeks, the way they interact with strangers is going to be affected by any kind of seismic event occurring in the world.

Ideally, those goals and desires will overlap, and while a version of this question may already be on your mind, the specific electorate I’m referring to happens to be a group of cardinals, sequestered in the Vatican in Edward Berger’s “Conclave.”

Ralph Fiennes portrays Cardinal Lawrence, who questions his own devotion all while corralling his colleagues who are sequestered in Vatican City as they decide on the identity of their next spiritual leader and do some backstabbing in the process.
