In 1945 Warsaw, a French Red Cross doctor (Lou de Laage) is called to a convent on an urgent matter.

Soon, she is tasked with keeping the secret of what happened at the convent during World War II. Directed by Anne Fontaine, The Innocents made its world premiere at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival.
