A 9th century woman of English extraction born in the German city of Ingelheim disguises herself as a man and rises through the Vatican ranks.
Costume
The papal vestments never looked so deliciously subversive on the wrong body.
Acting
Johanna Wokalek burns through every scene like Joan through patriarchal nonsense.

Medieval filth and grandeur so authentic you'll smell the chamber pots.
