According to Volker Schlöndorff's own statements, he left the director's chair after an argument with the production company Constantin, which wanted to shoot a cinematic feature film version as well as a TV miniseries version at the same time. Schlöndorff disagreed with the terms and left. Franka Potente then left also out of loyalty to the director.
The film is based on the popular story of the 'female Pope' that has become widespread since the Middle Ages and thereafter. Pope Joan has been mentioned in works that were released several centuries after her supposed reign. Most modern scholars have dismissed the stories as fictional, due to lack of contemporary documentation, and the debunking of indirect evidence. Many theories abound that the lack of evidence is the result of successful attempts by the Catholic Church to erase Joan's existence from history. The matter therefore remains controversial.
Franka Potente was set to play the title character but had to leave due to scheduling conflicts shortly before filming began.
Volker Schlöndorff was originally set to direct this movie but left over unspecified differences with the production company.
"Johanna von Ingelheim: As for strength of will, women can be viewed as superior to man. Eve ate from the apple out of love of knowledge and learning. Adam ate it only because Eve asked him to."
"House Steward: Pardon me, Eminence. The girl has arrived. You had her fetched from Ingelheim. Fulgentius: Oh yes, now I remember. That Greek scholar's idea. But am I seeing double? House Steward: The boy is her brother. Their father, a Priest, insists that he too be allowed to attend the Scola. Fulgentius: What do you know? I send for one and get two! If only the Emperor were as generous as these holy men from the countryside!"
