In a hidden Orthodox monastery in Belarus, Mother Vera weaves the inner world of an unorthodox young nun with the community that saved her life.
After 20 years as a monastic, Vera faces deep inner conflict. Now, she must confront her past and trust her instincts to find the liberation she desires.
'The film resists easy resolution, offering instead a complex and highly affecting opportunity to step into the inner world of a woman constantly searching for spiritual freedom' - Nathan Lewis, Little White Lies
