Women of noble class, often forced and indoctrinated for centuries from an early age to the fate of monastic life, an ancient custom that forced them into the cage of the cloister. Behind the bars of the forced enclosure, the invisible tears of these young souls with broken wings flowed copious. Recurring were the thoughts of escape, for many unrealized, a stain that society created in the hearts of the unfortunate remained indelible, until their death. The conditions of segregation of the nuns recall an extremely current scenario. The awareness that the maintenance of wealth and power are worthless if one is forced not to touch life beyond the double-mesh grille of the monastery door. The young nuns are the archetype of a society in which young people are kept in a cage, devoted to externally imposed stalemate, a psychological hegemony founded on wrong, unsustainable and redundant foundations. An invitation to freedom of choice, to freedom of judgement, the allegory of the unmotivated conflict between part of politics and part of the Church. A global system aimed at the deprivation of rights and the non-recognition of individual freedom, which does not require ineffective impositions and baroque paper skies, made of impressive and inhuman models. The key is in the awareness of the suffering of others to truly live in this reality, which is the only one.
