Behind Convent Walls

Behind Convent Walls

1978, Movie, 1h 35min

Boundary-pushing director Walerian Borowczyk brings his gauzy, symbol-laden eroticism to this typically provocative tale of a convent turned into a hothouse of depraved lust. Pushed to the brink by their strict Mother Superior, the nuns in a repressive convent unleash their pent-up desires in a shocking eruption of carnal debauchery that will scandalize the church and bring about dire consequences. Borowczyk serves up the sacrilege in artful soft focus, courtesy of master cinematographer Luciano Tovoli (SUSPIRIA, THE PASSENGER).
