A mother pushes her son, Federico, to visit the convent-prison in Bobbio, where Sister Benedetta is facing charges of witchery for seducing Fabrizio, Federico's twin brother, and making him betray his priestly mission. The mother pressures Fedrico to rehabilitate his brother legacy but he, too, falls under Benedetta's spell, thus sentencing her to a life sentence walled up in prison. 30 years later, Federico, now Cardinal, will meet again Benedetta, still living behind those walls.

A choir sings Nothing Else Matters, Bobbio as the world of vampires and stories of violence and abandon. Beautiful take on the absurdity of faith shot with flair, devotion and passion by one true catholic-born filmmaker.

There are fantastic images in this film, with clear references to Caravaggio, and the main character even remember him. But the two parts of the movie feel disjointed, and consequently pointless. It's a story related to Bellocchio: his rural little hometown, Bobbio, and his relationship with it. But here this topic (and the parallelism with modern days) seems forced into a film that at least started interesting, telling about a old and disappeared, superstitious and pious world.
