Els dimonis de Loudun
Synopsis
In 17th-century France, a convent of Ursuline nuns in Loudun claims to be possessed by demons, accusing the charismatic local priest, Urbain Grandier, of witchcraft. This historical account explores the escalating hysteria, the political machinations, and the religious fervor that led to Grandier's infamous trial and execution. Aldous Huxley examines the complex interplay of faith, power, and human psychology behind one of history's most notorious cases of alleged demonic possession.
