Garfagnana, Italy, 1347. The handsome servant Masseto, fleeing from his vindictive master, takes shelter in a nunnery where three young nuns, Sister Alessandra, Sister Ginevra and Sister Fernanda, try unsuccessfully to find out what their purpose in life is, a conundrum that each of them faces in different ways.
My review · Reviewed 12/27/2020
The movie works best as a commentary on how stifling (and often hypocritical) religious belief can be. At times it veers off of the rails a bit but the sheer talent of the cast makes it a worthwhile (if fairly forgettable) watch.
