Nun or
Never!

The nuns living in the convent are happily melted together, doing their daily routines in harmony. One of the nuns finds a man underground while digging potatoes. The nun begins to dream of a man and loses the shared rhythm.

Nun or never is a film about secrets that we all carry with us, more or less hidden. It started from a joke and became a study of standing out from the crowd in an unwanted way, and falling in love with fantasy instead of reality.
