Plot
editSister Angela (Elena Sofia Ricci) is a nun at a convent based in Modena. When the convent encounters economic difficulties and risks closure, she decides to convert it into student accommodations featuring a bar, "L'Angolo Divino." even if her Mother Superior (Sister Costanza) didn't agree.
The bar acts as a common space for many different people, especially students. Sister Angela speaks to them and learns about their daily lives, often helping to solve their problems.
Season 1 largely focuses on crime solving, while in later seasons Sister Angela helps hospital patients. Though they often disapprove of Sister Angela's behavior, the Mother Superior and the lawyer Guido Corsi always end up helping her with her adventures.
