If you loved Geschichte einer Nonne, try Verdammt in alle Ewigkeit
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen

Here's a film that asks, "What if it was horny at Pearl Harbor?" A soldier is persecuted for being good at the bugle, while his superior's wife has an affair with another officer. It did win eight Oscars, so someone liked it.
