Jenseits der Hügel

Here's a film that understands the assignment. A young woman returns to her native Romania to retrieve her childhood friend from a remote Orthodox convent. Her friend, now a nun, resists the pull of secular life. It's bleak, patient, and possibly the best Romanian film about exorcism you'll see this week.
