  In this companion piece to his Nun And The Devil director Domenico Paolella refines the genre often imitated but never equaled which denotes both the origin of Nunsploitation cinema and its artistic peak. Eleonora Giorgi (Argento's Inferno) gives a powerful performance as Carmela a young aristocrat who refuses an arranged marriage and is sent to a convent. Her arrival intensifies the power struggle between the decadent nun Elizabeth (Catherine Spaak Argento's CatT O'Nine Tails) whose influential family maintain her debauched Sapphic lifestyle inside the cloister and the stern but evil Mother Superior (Suzy Kendall - Argento's Bird With A Crystal Plumage) as both women are smitten by Carmela's beauty.
