The film tells the story of nun Ada before she officially became a nun, and her aunt went on a root-seeking journey, which was to find the remains of her parents who were killed during World War II.
Seeking the roots as the main thread is the courage to expose the scars, but it is the conflict, confusion, and depression between the aunt and Ada who have different beliefs that instigate the drama conflict.
Aunt Wanda is intertwined with the confusion and crisis of faith. She has obviously experienced the Second World War, and she herself has participated in it. She is tired of the Soviet Union, so her depravity is not without reason. Without it, it is difficult to feel the confidence from life. People without faith are sad, because there is no motive for life, so she finally committed suicide in depression
Ada followed in the footsteps of Wanda and chose to indulge once. Before truly converting to Catholicism, she truly experienced the indulgence and happiness in the world. High heels, lipstick, long skirts, dancing, sex, some experience made Ada more bold and less regrettable when she went to take refuge. This is a way of expressing religious themes in movies.
