The film comes to the Haifa IFF directly from the Venice and Toronto Festivals.Federico, a young priest, is summoned by the 17th Century Inquisition to a convent prison in the town of Bobbio. His mission is to coerce Sister Benedetta to confess that she has seduced and driven to death her previous confessor, Federico's brother. Ruptures in time project us into the present day, in which a Russian wants to buy the monastery. A count and a woman whose husband has disappeared live there. But this is just the beginning of the mystery.
