A patient, formally daring work — the cinematography lingers on empty rooms longer than most audiences will tolerate, but those who stay are rewarded with the most haunting final act of the year.
Irini, a young and beautiful woman, is promised by her father to a secluded convent where the corrupt abbot exploits the nuns. With the help of her childhood friend Dorothy, she tries to escape to Athens, only to find herself drawn into a world of wealth, desire, and sexual exploitation.

I walked in expecting another genre exercise and walked out feeling like I'd been eavesdropping on a confession. The lead performance is genuinely singular — a career-defining turn.

A few too many scenes feel borrowed from a better film, but the soundtrack and the production design carry the rest. Solid recommendation for fans of slow-burn European thrillers.
