Marry-Margaret is locked in her father’s house like a bird in a cage. She has a secret she cannot reveal even at confession. This secret seared her heart and subordinated her entire life to a single goal — and Mari pursues it, clamping her lips tight. But the young priest who appears in their home attracts the attention of the young girl like a magnet. Everyone says he is handsome, but Mari is not yet able to understand whether that’s true, because to her only a soul can be beautiful.
The time has come to weigh holiness and sin, placing them on different scales.
