Spain, 1561. Sister Teresa, a beautiful nun in midlife, is
teaching in her community as well as participating in life
at her convent. This fi ctional story is inspired in part by
the writings of Saint Teresa of Avila, the famous Spanish
nun, mystic, author, teacher and administrator.
In Sister Teresa's gatherings with the community, villagers
speak out on marital discord, recovery from the Crusades and
women's rights. Teresa is summoned to Madrid by the Inquisition
to account for her unorthodox community activities.
Her Inquisitor confronts her with the charge that she is
teaching sex education without the sanction of the Church.
Teresa produces letters from the villagers praising her
work among them. The Inquisitor gives Teresa permission to
continue her work among the troubled villagers.
Sister Teresa returns to the convent with a lighter heart.
Then she receives a letter from her widowed father asking
her to visit him. Thus, Teresa embarks on another journey
away from the convent. Along the way she encounters a man
who is to change her life.
