Descargar The Nun's Story (1959)

In 1930, young Gabrielle Van der Mal enters a convent in her native Belgium to become a nun. Almost immediately she has difficulty adjusting to the cloistered life and its vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience. She doubts her own ability, even as she takes her final vows. Gabrielle, now called Sister Luke, excels in her medical studies and dreams of serving in the Belgian Congo. When the Reverend Mother asks her to fail her exams on purpose to show humility, she cannot bring herself to do that, but despite her excellent score she is not sent to the Congo, but to a Brussels sanitarium.—filmfactsman
