The monks and nuns of a tranquil monastery are in turmoil: they have just rescued a half-naked meat saleswoman from the clutches of a nasty pimp, and already a new danger threatens from the highest authority. An exorcist and inquisitor of the Vatican appears in the monastery to make ominous investigations. It is about the biggest secret of the Vatican: The Pope has a daughter! The unwanted child was once the result of a brief affair with a nun. The Inquisitor has been ordered to kill the Pope's daughter, who is now an adult, in order to eliminate the only evidence of the scandal. But while assassinating the unsuspecting young woman, the killer falls in love with his victim. This surprising turn of events is the starting point for an exchange of blows that is as hair-raising as it is bloody.

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
