SYNOPSIS:
Saint Maud follows a pious nurse who becomes dangerously obsessed with saving the soul of her dying patient.
Death is oftentimes uneventful. It’s what Jennifer Ehle’s Amanda, who is slowly dying from spinal lymphoma, tells her live-in nurse, the eponymous Saint Maud (a breakout role for Morfydd Clark so revolutionary it might as well be ripped from the Book of Revelations). Now, it would be wrong and disingenuous to say that Maud has always been a religious fanatic, as the extent of those origins are left unexplored and not necessarily relevant.
