Caterina Sordini, a young woman in 18th-century Italy, renounces her arranged marriage after a divine vision and enters a convent. There, she embraces a life of faith and founds a religious order devoted to the perpetual adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, enduring persecution and exile during the Napoleonic era.
Overall, 18 Presents feels more like a soap opera than a drama, and I feel bad for saying that since the concept is based off a tragic story (even though it’s loosely). I’m sure other people will find this film emotional for them, but as for me, it’s bland and forgettable.
I came across Urchin by chance and decided to watch it because of the title. It made me think of the spiky animal that lives at the bottom of the ocean, and the old Dickensian novels, where an urchin was an orphaned, homeless child in shaggy and dirty clothes.
