The story follows three nuns—Sisters Iphigenia, Margarita, and Carla—who are the last remaining members of an enclosed order of St Agnes living in isolation on a remote coastal convent. Their quiet existence is disrupted by the arrival of Father Ignatius, a young priest who seeks to sell their prime real estate. The unwelcome visitor challenges their secluded life, leading to a psychological game of survival where the nuns become criminals and Father Ignatius confronts his personal weaknesses.
Lambs of God is a dark gothic tale set against the backdrop of Catholicism, exploring themes of isolation, religious devotion, and the struggle between faith and temptation. Based on Marlee Jane Ward's novel of the same name, this Australian miniseries directed by Jeffrey Walker follows three generations of nuns and their unexpected encounter with Father Ignatius.
