#RecomendaciónPurga: Saint Ange

SAINT ANGE | Dir. Pascal Laugier | 2004 | 99 min

In 1958, young assistant Anna arrives at the Saint Ange Orphanage to help bring order to the place while the children are sent off to their new families. There she meets Judith, the last orphan, who has been cast aside because of her mental health problems. Judith tells her about the voices and footsteps of children she constantly hears, and when Anna also begins to notice them, together they must investigate the terrible secret hidden within this place.

Amid a wave of violent, bloody horror films from what's known as the New French Extremity, which gave us gems like Haute Tension (2003), Inside (2007), Frontiers (2007) and Martyrs (2008), Saint Ange presents a classic horror story exploring the terrors of motherhood and femininity, confronted by the character of Judith, played by one of the stars of early-21st-century French cinema, Virginie Ledoyen.

A must-see for fans of European and classic horror cinema, and haunted convents.
