God's Girls: Stories from an Australian Convent

In the old days they wore a blouse inside their swimsuits and a habit on top. They dressed up as brides and had their heads shaved. They weren't allowed to go to their mother's funeral. Using unique archive material shot by the nuns themselves as a recruitment film for the order, members and ex-members of one community reflect on the way things used to be and how they've changed.
