Summary: In Czechoslovakia, 1980, the totalitarian Communist regime demands allegiance from all its subjects, including the clergy. This film follows Michal and Juraj, two conflicted novitiates whose seminary is under increasing pressure by the Party to mold its students into satisfactory citizens. With the school on the brink of dissolution, and its head priest a target for blackmail, Michal and Juraj will have to choose between collaborating with the government as informants, or becoming targets of the secret police.
