Valeria Golino, best known for her roles in Rain Man and Portrait of a Girl on Fire, adapts in L'Arte della gioia Goliarda Sapienza's 1967-1976 eponymous novel. The series features Modesta, a young woman from a Sicilian peasant family who was abused as a child, when she entered a convent. There, she discovers a world totally different from the one she had known until then, and quickly forges a strong bond with the Mother Superior, towards whom she feels a deep desire. It's not long, however, before the nuns begin to feel the strain.
