—whose title is a reference to “Agnus Dei,” Latin for “Lamb of God”—is an intriguing if somewhat murky mystery that asks both “whodunit” and “whydunit.” Inspired by real events, the plot concerns a 21-year-old novice nun, Agnes , who is suspected of killing her own newborn infant. Agnes had been found in her convent room covered in blood while, nearby, a garbage can contained the body of a baby strangled with its own umbilical cord.
Is Agnes insane? How did she become pregnant in the first place? Did she actually kill the baby—and, if not, who did? To unravel the case’s myriad mysteries, Martha resorts to hypnosis to recover the young nun’s traumatic memories—and does she ever!today plays as a period piece. The once-common use of hypnosis to recover repressed memories is now considered unreliable and harmful.
