A medieval mystery drama where actors use theatrical performance to uncover truth amid accusations of witchcraft and murder, blending faith, justice, and moral ambiguity.

In 14th Century England, this tale of murder and mystery follows a fugitive priest who falls in with a troupe of actors. As they arrive in a small town, the actors encounter a woman being sentenced to death for practicing witchcraft and murder. Discarding the expected bible stories, the actors now stage a performance based on the crime. Through the performance of the play, they discover a mystery.
