Comedy drama by Christopher Lee, set in a Carmelite monastery where the brown habit is no protection against the problems and temptations of the modern world.

Unholy writ states that, 'Pig movements must be accompanied by a completed AML2 document. The movement must be reported by the recipient of the animals to their Local Authority within three days of the movement taking place using the appropriate AML form.' And that applies as much to Carmelite friars as to anyone else.
