Black Narcissus

A story of exquisite yearning in a strange and beautiful land. Towering over the screen ... as the mountains that saw it happen.

Sent to a remote Himalayan mountain, a group of Anglican nuns under Sister Clodagh settles into an odd old palace and works to open a school and hospital. The hostile climate and unfamiliar setting gradually unsettle them. Sister Ruth becomes infatuated with government worker Mr. Dean and begins to doubt her vow of celibacy, while Sister Clodagh is drawn into her own memories of love.
