The Innocents - Sunday 11th December 5pm

The Anne Fontaine film The Innocents (Les innocents) is in French, Polish and Russian. It’s Warsaw in December 1945 and Mathilde, a young French doctor, has set up a clinic to treat French people left behind in Poland at the end of the second world war when a Benedictine nun comes to ask her help to deliver babies for several of her fellow nuns… It’s based on true events involving the victorious Russian army repeatedly raping and sometimes killing the nuns.
