Father Urbain Grandier’s unorthodox views of sex and religion make him a polarizing figure in 17th-century France. His outspokenness has amassed a passionate following of nuns and a respected reputation for protecting the city of Loudon from corruption. Grandier’s influence is then undermined following a sexually repressed nun’s accusation of witchcraft.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The Devils is a very strong film rated 7.5/10. Great direction and performances make this one well worth adding to your watchlist.

A high rating speaks for itself — this film found its audience and didn't let them down. Trust the collective taste.

A classic from 1971. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: any evening when you want quality cinema with no compromises.
