Product Description:
Young men are torn between physical desire and religious discipline in a Catholic seminary where students and priests alike struggle to resist the temptations of the flesh.
Description by Ryko Distribution:
Acclaimed writer/director Fred Schepisi's (Roxanne, The Russia House, Empire Falls) first feature is the accomplished and currently pertinent story of boy's coming of age set in an Australian Catholic boys' school. Based on the director's experiences in a monastery, repressed desires meet Christian doctrine head-on. Winner of five Australian Film Institute awards, including Best Director, Best Actor, and Best Film (1976).
