Synopsis by Rovi
Polish director Jan Komasa’s Catholic-themed drama stars Bartosz Bielenia, Aleksandra Konieczna, and Eliza Rycembel. It's about a hardened young man in a youth detention center who experiences a religious awakening while serving his sentence for second-degree murder. Since his criminal background prevents him from entering the priesthood, he pretends to be a novice priest from Warsaw and begins to minister a small-town parish.
