THE TRUE STORY OF THE NUN OF MONZA opens with Sister Virginia de Leyva (Zora Kerova) taking her final vows. This is inexplicably intercut with scenes of extreme equine copulation (!) in front of a smiling group of admirers.
Sister Virginia soon finds herself on the radar of the supremely cranky, Mother Superior (Franca Stoppi), when a man begins pursuing her -Virginia- romantically. Plagued by erotic Jeezuz dreams (!!), Virginia begs her roommate to punish her with a whip, which she does in grand style.
What is it with these naughty nun movies, anyway?
Meanwhile, the convent priest shows that his "calling" is just a job to him when he has a deep, personal relationship with a nun.
Like most of these films, the main point is to poke at the sanctimonious church, using sensuality and shocks to be as offensively blasphemous as possible.
Actually, the best character in this movie is Mother Superior, because Ms. Stoppi always plays these pious roles with gusto. Alas, she's in it far too briefly. The rest is rather dull and utterly absurd. The birthing scene is especially ludicrous!
Even the nudity and carnality wear out their welcome fast, since plot gives way to one-trick exploitation. It's astounding that so many similarly themed films were made!...
