In 1610 Italy, the brilliant painter Caravaggio rebels against Church doctrine with the religious depictions in his art. After discovering that he uses prostitutes, thieves and vagabonds as models for his paintings, Pope Paul V orders the Vatican secret service to investigate Caravaggio.

The outcome of this investigation will determine if the Church will grant Caravaggio the clemency he requested after being sentenced to death for the murder of a romantic rival.
