Le Pacte Du Silence

A horrifying French thriller where Sarah, a young Carmelite nun, is urgently brought into hospital in great pain. She is harbouring a terrible secret that her twin sister shares--some thousands of miles away. Gerard Depardieu plays Joachim, the Jesuit doctor who attempts to treat her, and has an awful violent secret of his own to come to terms with. But he channels this into his concern for Sarah, which turns to obsession as he travels half way around the world in search of her sister Gaelle, rejecting his faith, looking for the terrible truth.
