Review

Highly rated by critics as far as I have understood, but didn't made that much impact on me. Enjoyable movie still, but can't praise it.

Group of nuns are sent from another convent to another place to start new convent. They have practical issues and problems there, but local man helps them in many way. Still not all nuns have only platonic view of that man and that causes problems in their group dynamic. Finally one nun flips out and her jealoysly goes too far which leads danger to another nun as well.

There probably is many aspects in this movie, but I just didn't get much out of it. Many persons and their meaning didn't opened to me. Maybe it was just too artistic for my understanding.
