Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Trivia

Franco shot this in three weeks using a real decommissioned convent, which locals reportedly found hilarious.

Cultural

Part of 1970s Eurocine's 'nunsploitation' wave, this rode the coattails of Ken Russell's 'The Devils' but with zero budget and maximum sleaze.
