If you thought the Monty Python comedies "Life of Brian" and "The Holy Grail" were sacrilegious and ridiculously profane -- well, you better hold onto your Rosary beads because you ain't seen nothing yet.

Check out the first red band trailer for "The Little Hours," a 14th-century-set religious satire comedy starring Alison Brie (TV's Community), Aubrey Plaza (FX's Legion), and Kate Micucci (Garfunkel and Oates) as three foul-mouthed, sex-obsessed nuns who can't seem to control their sinful urges.

Dave Franco, who is sharing the big screen with Alison Brie, his real-life wife, for the first time, plays a peasant servant who is caught sleeping with his master's wife. With his life now in danger, Franco decides to run and hide, seeking refuge at a local convent where the wild Catholic nuns conduct their raunchy business. Little does he know, however, that the convent is less a place of worship than it is a house of ill repute.

Written and directed by Jeff Baena (Life After Beth, Joshy), the film is loosely based on the 14th-century story "The Decameron" by Italian Renaissance writer-poet Giovanni Boccaccio.

Fred Armisen, John C. Reilly, Molly Shannon, Nick Offerman, and Lauren Weedman co-star in the film, which made a splash at Sundance this year. It's now set to hit theaters on June 30th.

synopsis:
Medieval nuns Alessandra (Alison Brie), Fernanda (Aubrey Plaza), and Ginevra (Kate Micucci) lead a simple life in their convent. Their days are spent chafing at monastic routine, spying on one another, and berating the estate's day laborer. After a particularly vicious insult session drives the peasant away, Father Tommasso (John C. Reilly) brings on new hired hand Massetto (Dave Franco), a virile young servant forced into hiding by his angry lord. Introduced to the sisters as a deaf-mute to discourage temptation, Massetto struggles to maintain his cover as the repressed nunnery erupts in a whirlwind of pansexual horniness, substance abuse, and wicked revelry.
