A 16mm portrait in response to the idea of simplicity and poverty which is the guiding principle of the Poor Clares and their ‘hidden’ life. Filmed in the enclosed Monastero di Santa Chiara, San Marino. The nuns spend the morning in the ‘laboratorio’ sewing, mending, ironing, in the kitchen preparing the midday meal and in the garden, tending to the animals and cultivation.
