A lethal tale of nun-upmanship.
A young nun wants to leave the order she is a part of, so she makes a deal with a more experienced member, Sister Lulu. They fake her death. She is put into a coffin and buried. Sister Lulu is supposed to come dig her up so she can escape. At the end of the film, we find out that Lulu is not coming, and the younger woman is going to remain buried alive.
This is a short film whose only dialog consists of the main character's narration. The language is very flowery, but there isn't much to describe. The girl is shown being tortured and then tries to kill herself by running into a wall. I'm giving it a five because I'm pretty ambivalent. On one hand, there is nothing really wrong with it. However, it is so short that I can really only judge it on the one idea it has going for it, which is the surprise ending. It felt more like an exercise than a story.
