In the city of Loudun (South-West of France), a priest seducing women and having controversal ideas drives people crazy/hysteric (nuns are like possessed by evil)
in a plague atmosphere. Richelieu, prime minister of that period, will use this event to feed his political strategy which consists to destroy Loudun and eliminate the
“heretic” priest.
