Synopsis
In medieval France, where witchcraft is widely accepted, a friar named Etienne is sent from town to town to root out those who still practice pagan rituals in defiance of church law. In a small village, Etienne meets Elda, who cures the locals with herbs and mixes pagan and Christian traditions. At first, Etienne is offended by what he considers her sacrilege, but eventually, Elda, Etienne, and the villagers all learn to compromise.
