-Film Comment
In this beautifully filmed tale of Paganism vs Christianity set during the middle ages, a young girl is established as an Anchoress (a walled in recluse) after she has a vision of the Virgin Mary. Her awakening sexuality disrupts the order of society and its government and religion are thrown into turmoil. |
