If you’re going to make a movie about nuns on the run, you most definitely can’t go wrong with the three women who don the habits in this enormously enjoyable road movie. A trio of veteran actresses who’ve earned just about every possible accolade between them, Judy Davis, Jacki Weaver, and Miriam Margolyes star as elderly nuns who help a young boy on a very personal quest of discovery in 1970s New Zealand. Alternately hilarious and heart-warming, this debut feature by actress-turned-filmmaker Nat Boltt is continually buoyed by its high-spirited cast and the generous, fun-loving spirit that courses through every scene. It’s sure to be an audience favourite at this year’s KCFF, where the film makes its Ontario premiere.
