German village Igelheims backward priest hopes his sons will succeed him after education in the bishops cathedral school, but the elder succumbs to disease and the younger lacks any intellectual drive. Traveling teacher Aesculapius arranges for the inquisitive daughter Johanna to be enrolled, against their fathers wishes. Unfit for the boys-only dorm, she gets to stay with Count Gerold, incurring his wifes due jealousy. Shes to be dismissed, but survives a Viking pillaging slaughter and assumes brother Johannes identity to join a monastery, where she becomes the infirmarys trainee. Fleeing exposure as female, she arrives in Rome. As a protégée of rivals in the viper nest-like papal court, she ends up elected as pope, but carries Count Gerolds baby, guaranteeing exposure.
