The Escaped Nun

[@darshansingh4375]

I am a French born British national, brought up in a catholic family, and altar boy until age 15 . That was long before converting to the Sikh faith , a religion more God loving than God fearing. Free from sectarian prejudice. Even as a child I couldn’t reconcile with the idea that any particular community had the monopoly of truth. God can be found, without being sequestered away from worldly life , like these nuns. There is only one humanity, regardless of caste, creed, colour, gender or community. Sat Sri Akal, Salam, Shalom, Shanti.

Wouldn't it be lovely but that isn't the world 🌎 we live in. Sorry you left the Faith.

Yes i know u r darshan singh grewal. I have seen ur story. Great 🙏❤️

[@jfd12gubs45x]

You must be a fool to convert from Christianity to paganism

[@BenjiLo-hm9nt]

Next change your religion into Muslim or Hinduism And change your gender too 😂😂

[@ShankarKumar-mv6cx]

Read Bhagavad Geeta

[@xavierjohn81]

I am a catholic....but I advocate that in every country convents should be visited by human rights commission.... because many people are suffering in side the walls.....if nothing to worry....then it is golden opportunity for sisters to convince them about jesus glory 🎉

Nice to see a local production on our local history

[@Parkmanto]

An excellent film of an intriguing historical event that took place in East Bergholt and Manningtree Station 100 years ago.

What a good movie about the convent life sadly its a very grimm story 😢

[@CarlStJohn-x9w]

Good acting.

[@lolafe-cados586]

It’s like being in prison or solitary confinement

[@nuwanrohitha2466]

When I was a seminarian, I too experienced the same

.

[@NgocBich-xe6pt]

So are you still a nun now?

[@jivanvasant]

PERFECTION? Sister Margaret did reach perfection in her first three months at the convent, as a perfectly foolish nun.

[@scottgrunow5201]

her superiors were more notably lacking in perfection which could be gained by charity

[@albertdevasahayam6781]

A very sad movie.

[@alistairkewish651]

It only came to me just recently - on entering an enclosed Order, all the nuns would effectively be working for nothing. Or was it cheap labour?

[@scottgrunow5201]

they worked for nothing

[@IjeomaEze-r6x]

Please where can I get the full movie

[@scottgrunow5201]

the shoes are too loud for the convent. also unusual for postulants to be given individual cells. most slept in a dormitory with curtains surrounding individual sleeping areas

[@MichaelReilly-r7h]

Benedictine nuns do not wear the cord. I suspect that's not the only mistake

[@scottgrunow5201]

yeah, Franciscans wore the cord ...

[@scottgrunow5201]

Unusual that the Abbess ate separately. usually the officers of the house sat at a separate table on a dais above the rest of the tables in the refectory

[@scottgrunow5201]

shouldn't that clothing ceremony be in Latin, or parts of it? not just the singing?

[@scottgrunow5201]

Benedictine choir nuns are called Dame

[@kloworseipiangin]

Good.❤

[@scottgrunow5201]

I am sure Lady Hildegard would go apocleptic if she found about the train station award event and press conference and the newspaper reports

[@xavierjohn81]

A system that should be abolished

[@scottgrunow5201]

Karen Armstrong much later in her convent suffered serious issues with the sewing requirements

[@scottgrunow5201]

Benedictines actually ate well ... inaccurate. These are not Poor Clares who eat an austere vegetarian diet.

[@scottgrunow5201]

note how Sloane plays into the anti Catholic paranoia that dates back to Foxe's Book of Martyrs

[@scottgrunow5201]

they are treating Dame Maurus like a lay sister as they did the dirty work .. and lay sisters brought no or much less dowry than the choir nuns ... they were not expected read and study and learn the Latin for the Divine Office

[@jasanders5877]

😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣" YOU have put xxx for kisses 😘😘😘

[@pvsmanian1]

Horrible condition in GOD's place.

[@scottgrunow5201]

they could take a bath infrequently like once a momth ... no baths at all seems inaccurate. what did Benedict of Nursia say about this?

[@scottgrunow5201]

they obviously did not choose their religious names ... Sister Maurus?

[@benancegeorge5480]

Nice

[@scottgrunow5201]

the self flagellation was a voluntary discipline or part of a penitential regime set up by the superior, not as a punishment

[@scottgrunow5201]

Also 400 strokes? seems exaggerated ... nuns usually did much less and on Fridays, more a ritual act that beating oneself up excessively as a punishment from a superior

[@scottgrunow5201]

the Abbess was elected from the community, not sent from another convent

[@scottgrunow5201]

though this particular house originated in Brussels and had Euopean houses, perhaps they were not self governing like Stanbrook Abbey

[@pustomkumar8165]

So sad peoples

[@scottgrunow5201]

Lauds was sung in the morning, not the afternoon

[@jasanders5877]

Really 😂 THAT 🤔 is WHAT YOU got FROM this piffying movie 😢😮😅

[@ผุสดีเทศลําลึก]

ซิสเตอร์

[@MichaelReilly-r7h]

I suspect far more lies than truth. Shame

[@scottgrunow5201]

Why?

[@jasanders5877]

WHAT do you mean (the movie) believe you me, IT'S all true)🙏
