Immaculate (2024)

Emmy nominee Sydney Sweeney (The White Lotus, Euphoria, Anyone But You) was nominated for a Fangoria Chainsaw award for her role in Immaculate in Cecilia, a novice nun who joins a remote convent in the picturesque Italian countryside. Cecilia’s warm welcome quickly descends into a nightmare as it becomes clear her new home harbours a sinister secret and unspeakable horrors.

Filmed in Rome, Immaculate also stars Emmy nominee Simona Tabasco (The White Lotus), and award-winning Spanish actor Álvaro Morte (The Professor in Money Heist).

TheWrap says: “Sweeney has never been better than she is here. What a darkly beautiful yet brutal, bloody and bold film.”
