Nocturnal Cavalcades is a tender horror film concerning the Benandanti, a 16th century argrarian fertility cult who performed rituals under dark skies in order to defend the harvest. The dogmatic Catholic Church repressed all beliefs divergent from Christianity. The Benandanti were burned at the stake, their free will going up in flames.
