Agnes
Of God
by John Pielmeier
September
12-29, 1985
Directed by Randall White
A chain-smoking
lapsed-Catholic psychiatrist is sent to a convent to do a psychological evaluation of
the novice who gave birth to a baby and then killed it in her convent room. Was it a virgin birth? A miracle? And what of the bloody stigmata that seem to spontaneously appear on her hands?
The psychiatrist clashes with the Mother Superior over the line between faith and
science and finds that there are no easy answers.
