A psychologically unsettling portrait of religious obsession and psychological unraveling, told through the distorted perspective of a deeply troubled caregiver.

Having recently found God, self-effacing young nurse Maud arrives at a plush home to care for Amanda, a hedonistic dancer left frail from a chronic illness. When a chance encounter with a former colleague throws up hints of a dark past, it becomes clear there is more to sweet Maud than meets the eye.
