In an isolated Orthodox convent in Romania, Alina has been reunited with her childhood friend Voichita after spending several years in Germany. Alina wants to leave and go to back Germany, and wants Voichita, a novice nun, to go with her. But Voichita has found refuge in faith and a family in 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.
