In 17th-century France, Father Urbain Grandier becomes the target of witchcraft accusations made by a sexually repressed nun. When Cardinal Richelieu and his allies move to destroy him, the charge of possession becomes an instrument of political and religious power. The Loudun affair exposes the entanglement of religious fanaticism and the mechanisms of authority.
