4 Episodes

Delve into shadowy cloisters with an unholy congregation of films that scramble the sacred and the profane through lurid tales of nuns gone wild. From the fevered blasphemy of Ken Russell’s THE DEVILS and the delirious hysteria of ALUCARDA to the surrealist sacrilege of Pedro Almodóvar’s DARK HABITS and the gun-wielding vengeance of MS .45, these shocking cinematic transgressions unveil the convent as a site of repression, ecstasy, and revolt, offering a baroque and often radical vision of female fury, desire, and faith gone feral.
