The Order of the Angels, residing in an ominous countryside cloister, are charged with a dark, and secret, duty. Sister Jodie(Nora Jacobs), newly transferred to this mysterious convent, arrives to find the order in the midst of turmoil and confusion: the nuns are hearing strange and devilish sounds in the middle of the night and one of their number has gone missing, along with the sacred Book of the Angels. As the sisters begin to experience cases of demonic possession, it is up to Jodie and her new friend, Sister Salka (Katarina Maria Trenk), to discover the source of these unnatural occurrences…even if it means staring into the very face of hell.

This film was shot with the collaboration of numerous Vienna-based artists (Gelitin, Markus Krottendorfer, Michele Pagel, Ekaterina Shapiro-Obermair and others) and one Estonian artist, Kris Lemsalu, who dedicated considerable time and energy, mostly without pay, to this low-budget project.

Scott Clifford Evans (Murderkino 2019–) brings you a film packed with the beautiful and grotesque, mysterious and absurd.
