The film stars Julianna Robinson as the titular character Sister Gracie Rose and William McNamara whose previous works include “Stealing Home” with Jodie Foster and “Copycat” with Sigourney Weaver and Harry Connick, Jr.
“Nun” follows a troubled Sister Rose as she attempts to confront her past by visiting a former romantic interest in a distant city. Along her travels she stops in a rural town to retrieve an item from a storage facility, eventually finding herself trapped in the building and forced to face her inner demons.
The primary filming location was Union County, Kentucky, birthplace of the film’s director and Dossett Farms LLC founder Chad Dossett. “The process began several years ago, principal photography primarily occurring in the Union County area before our cast and crew returned to LA to finish things off,” Dossett says in an interview with a local Kentucky newspaper. “All told it took roughly 2 years to shoot, then another year plus to edit.”
