Horarium is this quiet little documentary that really lets you soak in the atmosphere of life at St. Mary's Abbey. The nuns share their thoughts, and it’s not just about their faith but the everyday joys and struggles they face, pulling you into their world. The pacing is contemplative, almost meditative, which can feel unusual compared to more frenetic docs. You get these lovely visuals alongside their reflections, which adds an extra layer of depth. It’s distinct in how it doesn’t sensationalize their lives but rather presents them with a serene honesty. The practical effects here are really just the nuns’ actual lives, and there's something so raw about their candid performances that it resonates.
