Academy Award®-Winners Jane Fonda, Anne Bancroft and Academy Award®-Nominee Meg Tilly star in this unforgettable emotionally charged suspense film masterly directed by Norman Jewison (MOONSTRUCK, THE HURRICANE). An isolated convent becomes the setting for murder in this riveting film of spiritual passion and pride that was nominated for 3 Academy Awards®. When the infant of a young nun, Agnes (Tilly), is found starngled, a court-appointed psychiatrist, Martha Livingston (Fonda), must decide if the devout but troubled girl is fit to stand trial. In her quest for truth, Martha goes head-to-head with the intractable Mother Superior (Bancroft), who assures her that Agnes has no memory of the pregnancy. But the probe uncovers mysterious aspects of Agnes' personality, which lead to a shattering climax. Is AGNES OF GOD a hysterical young woman - or is her ordeal divinely inspired?
