Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaFirst thing on Orchidea's arrival for one of their sessions, Ferruccio asks her if she's brought him any detective stories, "gialli" ( plural) in Italian. This film belongs to the Italian genre called "giallo", so named for a series of popular Italian detective novels, published in 1929, all bound in yellow covers, "giallo" meaning "yellow" in Italian. Ultimately the term became generalized for detective stories, in print or on film, with an emphasis on style, sleaze and gore. Thus, Ferruccio is asking for gialli in a giallo.
- GoofsThe handwriting on the note Ferrucio sends Orchidea with the torn clothes is clearly not that of a schoolboy..
- Quotes

Sister Tarquinia: That's true, he's like an angel.
Aristide: You're right, he's really a saint!
Featured review
A heretic behavior of a Priest and his punishment!!
According Salvatore Puntillo the director Francesco Mazzei also was a producer, cutting any extra cost whenever it could boost the pre-arranged low budge, as we can state through the low-profile casting which didn't have any major star, in other hand the story is very exciting, where a trendy Priest (Maurizio Bonuglia) has been a sinful behavior on two heretic affairs with two different women, a married Orchidea Durantini (Bedi Moratti) and the fortune-teller Giulia Pisani (Eva Czemerys) ends up murdered inside the church witnessed by an orphaned boy.
Soon a Police Commissioner Franco Boito (Renzo Montagnani) starts investigate the weirdo case together with his sidekick Moriconi (Salvatore Puntillo) after several inquires at crime scene and all nuns hosted there, meanwhile Giulia appears dead with slashed throat, she was one of suspect, after an exhaustive work Commissioner Franco finally figures out that Orchidea's jealous husband ought be the main suspect, later he is found dead at your house apparently committed suicide, then closing the case, not so fast as usually a final twist comes.
The movie touches in a neuralgic matter about an unholy hidden affairs on church, exposing many auto-flagellation upon a whip, such scourge was routinely used to by Priest and Nuns to purge wicked throughs, many nudity scenes were scattered along the picture as well, fine Giallo with a modest casting, nevertheless not devoid of interest.
Thanks for reading.
