Johanna

This provocative re-telling of 'The Passion of Joan of Arc' stars Orsolya Tóth as the eponymous protagonist, a beautiful young drug addict who is saved from the brink of death and believes that she has been touched by a divine grace. Becoming a nurse, she begins to cure the sick through a miraculous form of sexual healing. Before long, this unconventional apporach incurs the hatred and derision of her fellow hospital staff, who brand her a whore and attempt to force her out.

But her patients, who see her as an angel, come to her protection. The film was the official selection at the 2005 Edinburgh International Film Festival, and awarded 'Certain Regard' at the 2005 Cannes Film Festival.
