In Spotorno, Italy, a group of nuns who’ve managed a beach resort since 1946 are facing eviction as local authorities force them to compete in a public tender under new EU rules. For decades, they’ve used profits to fund an infant school and summer camp — exempt from typical regulations due to their charitable work. Now, with that exemption gone, the 80-year-old Sister Miranda warns that losing the beach could shutter their vital programs. The mayor insists they must follow the law, making Spotorno a potential pioneer in Italy’s compliance with EU directives — and sparking what locals are calling a “holy war” over sacred sand.
