Synopsis
A joyful group of monks go to visit a group of nuns, and while they are all enjoying themselves they tell and listen some erotic stories. For one of his first erotic effort, cult director Joe D'Amato chooses the "decamerotica" genre, following the success Pier Paolo Pasolini's The Decameron (1971). The surrounding story has an unusual religious setting, which, at the time, caused a very harsh criticism of the movie.
