Nuns: An Italian Horror Story is a 2020 cult horror movie about Bruno, who, while drawn to the mysterious Helena, uncovers a convent’s dark, sinister past alongside a determined professor.
Synopsis: Three nuns reside in a vast, ancient convent turned guesthouse, with young Bruno serving as caretaker. Struggling with the enormity of the task, they hire Helena, a striking housekeeper. Bruno quickly falls for her, despite the looming consequences. Tensions rise as the nuns react with hostility toward Helena, sensing a dark power in her presence and her growing influence over Bruno. Their unease is only heightened when a university professor, Goffredi, intrigued by the convent’s mysterious origins, arrives with his two sons to investigate.
