Description
Director Paul Verhoeven says in a press conference in Cannes that the real-life history behind his new film "Benedetta" was his main motivation as he produced the feature, saying it was "wrong" to suggest the film was blasphemous. Verhoeven's film recounts a lesbian affair in a 17th-century convent, starring Virginie Efira and Charlotte Rampling, and is in competition for the Palme d'Or IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
