How it feels

The film tells two separate stories set in the same small Italian town, one in the 17th century and one in the modern day. A man is tortured for refusing to renounce his love for a nun, while centuries later a priest investigates a mysterious recluse. Both stories deal with secrets and the weight of the past.
