A sprawling, morally weighty meditation on power, redemption, and the inescapability of one's past, told with operatic grandeur and melancholic resignation.

In the midst of trying to legitimize his business dealings in 1979 New York and Italy, aging mafia don, Michael Corleone seeks forgiveness for his sins while taking a young protege under his wing.
