Storia
Benedetta explores the story of Benedetta Carlini, a 17th-century Italian nun who experiences erotic visions and forms a relationship with another nun named Bartolomea.

Riassunto
Directed by Paul Verhoeven in 2021, Benedetta is an erotic psychological drama set in a 17th-century Italian convent. The film is based on the true story of Benedetta Carlini, a nun who was exorcised multiple times due to her supposed demonic possessions and ecstatic experiences. Verhoeven's Benedetta explores themes of faith, sexuality, power dynamics within religious institutions, and the nature of truth and perception.
