In 1962, in the Polish People’s Republic, novice nun Ida (AgataTrzebuchowska) is on the verge of taking her vows, but before she does she sets out to visit her only living relative, a promiscuous, hard-living judge (Agata Kulesza).

In brittle, beautiful black and white. “This compact masterpiece has the curt definition and the finality of a reckoning—a reckoning in which anger and mourning blend together.”—The New Yorker
