If you loved Silent Light, try Benedetta
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Theysit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Silent Light, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Benedetta is
17th-century Italian convent, a crucifix hangs, chanting echoes. A novice arrives, a nun's devotion wavers, visions begin. Verhoeven's period drama is characteristically unflinching.
