TV Movie Drama History

The story of an encounter that was legendary at the dawn of the Reformation. Calvin's weeks-long dispute with an "unknown Roman Catholic priest" turned the fate of Switzerland in history. The unknown priest was Ignatius of Loyola, later founder of the Jesuit order within the Church, and who was indeed on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land in the area. Both wanted to reform the religion of the time. Calvin from without, creating a new church, and Ignatius of Loyola from within. Both agreed that the Church of Rome at the time was utterly depraved, with popes and bishops unashamedly enriching themselves and lusting, selling penitential cults, never having relics of saints, and all of these things had reduced the Roman Church to an unprecedented low. The two protagonists rise up against this, each with his own means.
