16:45Now PlayingProtesters showed up to the screening of the film Benedetta on Sept. 26th, at the 59th New York Film Festival premiere of the film. The film reveals the life of a 17th-century Tuscanny nun, Benedetta Carlini, who claimed to have visions of Christ and had sexual relations with another nun. Armed with megaphones, banners, and placards, members of the American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family, and Property branded Benedetta as a "blasphemous lesbian movie." Christian Blauvelt, Managing Editor of IndieWire, said that the protestors are upset about the film's portrayal of nuns and Catholicism. The New York Film Festival calls the film a "delirious, erotic, and violent melodrama, told with a boundless spirit for scandal, and unabashedly courts blasphemy as it unfolds its tale of religious hypocrisy."
