Judith C. Brown, 1985
movie vs book
Paul Verhoeven, 2021
In the late 17th century, with plague ravaging the land, Benedetta Carlini joins the convent in Pescia, Tuscany, as a novice. Capable from an early age of performing miracles, Benedetta’s impact on life in the community is immediate and momentous. She is assisted by a companion, and the relationship between the two women develops into a romantic love affair.
