Based in part on a personal experience from Lanctôt's own childhood, the film centres on the sexual awakening of Léonie, a young girl attending convent school in 1959 who falls in love with Father Malachy, the new school priest, and becomes jealous when she realizes that her teacher, Sister Cécile, is also in love with him. The film also explores the effect of the experience on the three into the present day, with Lanctôt herself playing the role of the adult Léonie, Geneviève Bujold as the senior Sister Cécile and Nelson Villagra as the senior Fr. Malachy. (Wikipedia)
