A documentary investigation into genuine exorcism that blends clinical observation with spiritual inquiry, questioning the boundary between psychiatric illness and demonic possession.

William Friedkin attends an exorcism with Father Gabriele Amorth, as he treats an Italian woman named Cristina for the ninth time. Prior to filming, Cristina had purportedly been experiencing behavioural changes and “fits” that could not be explained by psychiatry, and which became worse during Christian holidays.
