Father Joseph Hennessey’s routine last‑rites visit becomes a crisis of faith when a dying man mentions “Nim.” A striking young woman, the mysterious “Nim,” confronts him, and together they investigate the parishioner’s death. As the inquiry deepens, Joseph wrestles with love, doubts his beliefs, and must confront the foundations of his vocation.
