Agnese and Stefano are profoundly different. She is only seventeen, lives with her mother – a harsh and devoted woman – is a regular church-goer and is about to take a vow of chastity to last until marriage.

In reality, he is utterly mad, and this madness seems to be present today (within the walls of the convent) where young Sarah lives...
