Sin (Russian: Грех; Italian: Il peccato – Il furore di Michelangelo) is a Russian-Italian biographical drama film written and directed by Andrei Konchalovsky released in October 2019.[1][2][3]
Plot
The film tells about the life of the famous sculptor and painter of the Renaissance,
When his commissioner and head of the Della Rovere nobility Pope Julius II dies, Michelangelo becomes obsessed with sourcing the finest marble to complete his tomb. The artist's loyalty is tested when Leo X, of the rival Medici family, ascends to the papacy and charges him with a lucrative new commission – the façade of the San Lorenzo basilica. Forced to lie to maintain favour with both families, Michelangelo is progressively tormented by suspicion and hallucinations, leading him to ruthlessly examine his own moral and artistic failings.
