Follow the rebellious girls of a Catholic boarding school before Christmas, a time of war and scarcity.
From writer and director, Alice Rohrwacher, and Academy Award® winning producer, Alfonso Cuarón, "Le Pupille" is a tale of innocence, greed and fantasy. This live action short is about desires, pure and selfish, about freedom and devotion, and about the anarchy that is capable of flowering in the minds of girls within the confines of a strict religious boarding school at Christmas.—Disney+
With Christmas just around the corner, the sweet, obedient girls of an underfunded Catholic boarding school have their hands full organising the long-awaited Nativity play. However, temptation is everywhere. And against the backdrop of war and scarcity, where staying on the straight and narrow is already a challenge, a scrumptious gift can set a string of unexpected events in motion--including rebellion.—Nick Riganas
