Something is wrong with Agnes (Hayley McFarland). She’s behaving in a most unseemly way for a nun and her Mother Superior suspects, well, the usual – that some demonic entity has succeeded in getting hold of her. Naturally the Church is a bit embarrassed by this and would prefer to avoid reports leaking into the wider world, so it turns to Father Donaghue (Ben Hall) and earnest young acolyte Benjamin (Jake Horowitz) for help. Benjamin, told not to let anyone know that he isn’t yet ordained, instantly inspires lustful comments from the nuns and thus attracts the Mother Superior’s ire. Donaghue is caught up in accusations that he abused a child, but this is, at least in context, treated as less of a problem. its primary function is to discomfort the viewer as the charismatic Hall draws us onto his side.
