Set in 1964 against the backdrop of an America in the midst of change, a progressive young priest’s conduct with a student comes under question by the parish school’s principal, a veteran nun twice his age. But with no proof, can there be certainty? As questions begin to plague her, Sister Aloysius finds herself consumed by doubt in an ancient institution that once provided the comforts of community, discipline and faith. A powerhouse drama enclosed in an eloquent and provocative investigation of truth and consequences.
