The True Story of the Nun of Monza

The story of the nun from Monza has real roots. After the death of her noble father, Sister Virginia has a high chance of becoming Mother Superior of her monastery. With the support of young nuns, she removes the previous abbess, whose health is being undermined by illness. However, the main and tragic role in Virginia’s fate was played not by intrigue, but by a forbidden passion for a man, a womanizer and a duelist, with whom she even had a child. An attempt to hide the truth led to murder and an invasion of the internal affairs of the monastery of the Holy Inquisition.
