Introverted 16-year-old Lucia joins an all-girls choir at her Catholic school. During an intensive rehearsal weekend at a remote convent in the countryside, in unfamiliar surroundings, amid the push and pull of her own sensual awakening, Lucia finds herself questioning her beliefs and considers breaking decorum.

“This debut feature … is a small miracle. Its 90 minutes deftly draw us into the psychology of pubescent teens in a fresh, often funny, always transporting way.” (theartsdesk com)

“This elegant and mysterious debut … reinvents the cliched idea of a Catholic girl’s sexual awakening.” (The Guardian)

“Lush, haunting story of a repressed teen’s sexual awakening … The film draws its erotic charge from lush visuals and the simmering tension of forbidden desires.” (The Irish Times)
