A priest‑like figure claiming to be the long‑awaited Father O’Shea appears at a remote Catholic mission in 1947 China. Though uneasy in his clerical role, his harsh methods quickly bring order to the surrounding Seven Villages amid the chaos of civil war and revolution. He hides a secret, and his growing bond with the mission’s nurse, Anne, a war‑widow, takes on an unmistakably un‑priestly tone.
