The Innocents (15)
Programmers's Pick
Mathilde Beaulieu is a young doctor working for the French Red Cross in Poland during the winter of 1945. A Benedictine nun from a neighbouring convent comes to her, pleading for help. When Mathilde reaches the convent, she discovers several heavily pregnant nuns, petrified by fear and shame.
A compelling and powerful drama based on the diary of a young, fiercely atheist French doctor who became the sole hope for the sisters. A poignant story of birth and rebirth, shattered faith and female solidarity.
Dir. Anne Fontaine, France/Poland, 2016, 115 mins, subtitled. Cast. Lou de Laage, Agata Buzek, Agata Kulesza.
