Poland, in the 1960s. Before taking her vows, Anna, a young orphan raised in a convent, sets off to meet her aunt who is the only surviving member of her family. She then discovers a dark family secret dating from the Nazi occupation. A delicate work of buried emotions, magnified by a splendid black and white photography.
