Les Clarisses françaises d’Assise

A new documentary titled The French Clarisses of Assisi explores the life of a community of nuns living at the Sainte-Colette Monastery on a hill in Assisi. Produced by KTO and La Huit Production, the film follows the sisters who have maintained a presence at the monastery for 110 years.

The community originated from Paray-le-Monial. According to the production, the sisters have developed a tradition of hospitality to serve pilgrims. This service includes hosting French seminarians training in Rome for rest and pilgrimage, as well as welcoming various artists.
