However, if you're looking for a "normal" Hepburn movie, this isn't it.

A very illuminating story of the life of a nun. We are shown life in the convent and on the mission field, and it left me with a much clearer understanding of how absolutely steadfast to their comittment the nuns must be. Audrey Hepburn and Peter Finch are, as usual, excellent in their roles
