In the face of the incomprehensible, human hearts harden. On the night of July 18th, 1830, in the convent of the Daughters of Charity in Paris, Catherine Labouré experiences a Marian apparition. In the present day, Sister Anna arrives at the town of Roscoff in Brittany from the Mother House in Paris, seeking to succeed Catherine Labouré and receive the gift of seeing the Virgin Mary, thus fulfilling a prophetic vision.
On the island of Batz, off the coast of Brittany, lives Isaac, a silent and withdrawn teenager whose life is transformed by extraordinary visions. The inhabitants of the island are thrown into chaos by his words, whose truthfulness cannot be determined. They are terrified by the knowledge that in the past, Marian apparitions have foretold misfortune.
These visions set off a chain reaction. The reactions of the crowd are unpredictable. Both the deeply faithful and those in crisis are forced to re-evaluate their relationships with God and the world. Hovering over it all is the barely perceptible shadow of Breton's legendary piety, superstition, and belief in the supernatural.
