Synopsis
After spending several years in Germany, Alina has been reunited with her childhood friend Voichita, who is a novice nun in an isolated Orthodox convent in Romania. Alina wants to go to back Germany and wants Voichita to go with her. But Voichita has found refuge in faith and a family with the nuns and their priest, and refuses. When Alina challenges the priest in an attempt to win back Voichita's affection, she is suspected of being possessed. The story is based on a case of alleged demonic possession that occurred in a Romanian monastery in 2005.
