Synopsis

"I don't need God any more- I am God"

France: 13th century. Heresy, blood and burnings. The Doctrine of the Free Spirit celebrates pleasure, passion and freedom from guilt. A corrupt and hypocritical Pope crushes the women who live this outrage.

"We are born. We are. Our flesh is beautiful, more beautiful than cake or the stars"
