Calcutta, India, August 1948. Teresa, Mother Superior of the convent of the Sisters of Loreto, is anxiously waiting for the letter that will finally allow her to leave her monastery and create her new order in response to the call she has received from God. Just when everything seems ready, she finds herself faced with a dilemma that questions her own ambitions and faith at a major turning point in her life.
