Summary

The sound of bells ringing through the streets of Loudun in the late sixteenth century opens the gates to a hell where bigotry and passion intertwine. This harrowing period drama by Ken Russell exposes the sordid alliance between faith and politics while plunging the audience into an eerie atmosphere. Desires locked away within the monastery walls poison the fate of a town under the guise of a witch hunt. The screams echoing through the streets and the chaos created by obsessed minds leave the audience in the midst of a dark chapter of history.
