Academy Award® winning actress Kim Basinger stars in this haunting story about Jessie, a married woman who returns to her coastal South Carolina hometown to help her tormented mom. There, Jessie undergoes a spiritual, artistic and erotic awakening when she is tempted into a romance with a Benedictine monk, and must face the crisis and feelings it ignites within her.
