This unique and complex film has engaged generations of filmgoers with its provocative yet genuinely spiritual portrait of a convent of nuns who work to establish an outpost in the Himalayas. As they work they are surrounded by reminders of the non-Christian origins of the place and the people. Genuinely shocking at times and always a masterful work of narrative cinema. Starring Deborah Kerr, David Farrar, Sabu and the unforgettable Kathleen Byron.
