Seasoned provocateur Paul Verhoeven (Elle, Showgirls, Basic Instinct) returns with this extremely fun and deliciously provocative psychosexual melodrama about a lesbian nun in Renaissance Italy.
In late 17th-century Tuscany young nun Benedetta (Virginie Efira) becomes entangled in a forbidden lesbian affair with a novice (Daphne Patakia) - but it is her blasphemous visions of Jesus that shock her fellow sisters and threaten to shake the Church to its core...
Benedetta is a gleeful, no holds barred romp of a film - join us for an unholy good time!
