Review
The veteran filmmaker’s tender, matter-of-fact portrait of the twelfth-century German nun Hildegard von Bingen—who was a mystic, a composer, and a philosopher, among other things—dares to portray the spiritual life as something worth aspiring to, even as it makes a case for the revolutionary achievements of its remarkable subject.
