Two parents (Keith Carradine and Blythe Danner) are horrified to discover that their son has been molested by their parish priest (David Strathairn). The devout couple is torn between their faith and their need to protect their family and shocked when it appears the church is ready to close ranks to take care of its own. Based on a true story about a predatory Louisiana priest, this film dramatizes what has become the church's worst nightmare.
