For thousands of years, man has sought experience of the divine. He has found
strange and sometimes shocking ways to achieve it. Dolores Gutierrez has had
visions since early childhood. Convinced that God is calling her to holy orders,
she has modeled herself on Teresa of Avila, a medieval saint. But it is pain, not
prayer, that brings her visions.
Acutely aware of the dark history of his own religion, Father Steven, the sensible
priest of her parish, is certain that Dolores is far more in need of psychiatric care
than a nun's habit. He seeks the help of a colleague, Brother Simon, to assess the
disturbed Dolores.
Uniquely qualified to counsel the young woman because of his own struggles
with self-immolation, Simon takes on the task only reluctantly; he is not
convinced his own demons have been put to rest. Is God really speaking to
Dolores, or is it something else?
