Focusing on a pivotal sequence near the film's conclusion, the essay analyzes five interconnected scenes from the 1974 British film directed by Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger. It begins with the rhythmic drumming of natives in the jungle, transitioning to Sister Clodagh's search for Sister Ruth within the convent.
