The Secret of the Church · ASHOT.LIVE

In a remote town surrounded by century-old palm trees in Ceará, Northeast Brazil, the Church of the Holy Blood is cloaked in devoutness and sacredness, yet it hides a dark sacrificial ritual that has lasted for a hundred years. Young nun Irmã Clara arrives here due to a transfer and quickly gets involved in a series of mysterious deaths of nuns. The deceased all die on nights of the new moon, with the official cause of death uniformly covered as 'heart disease'. As the investigation deepens, Clara uncovers bloody sacrificial contracts hidden in the church's basement, all of which have been tacitly approved by higher-ups in the Vatican. What shocks her even more is discovering that she is the biological daughter of Father Miguel, who failed to sacrifice her years ago. This 'transfer' is no coincidence but a trap set by the priest in search of redemption. Faced with the collapse of faith, the bond of blood, and the fear of collective silence in the town, Clara must make a choice between truth and redemption—with the question of whether to continue guarding the lie or to shatter this hypocritical temple herself. A murder in the name of faith, a cruel redemption between father and daughter.
