Adrianus, de Nederlandse Paus plot

The documentary takes people back in time to 1522, this year exactly 500 years ago. It is the year of the election of Adrianus van Utrecht as pope, the only Dutch pope ever. How could a carpenter's son from Utrecht become pope? And why did the Romans hate him so much? He had been pope for only a year and a half when he died under suspicious circumstances. Poisoned maybe?

Very good documentary about a piece of Dutch history that almost no one knows about.

Respect for "our" Pope because he did not have it easy, just because he was a man who admitted guilt and was not into cake with balloons and streamers; his honesty and frugality cost him his position and ultimately his life.

Fortunately, he received a nice tribute from the Vatican and these makers.
