The Rev. Greg Pilkington is a Catholic priest who takes his vows, and his love of God, very seriously. When a young girl confesses to him that her father has been sexually abusing her, Pilkington is overcome with protective rage and feels he must break the secrecy rules that bind the confessional to stop the abuse. As the case haunts him, Pilkington is forced to confront his own transgressions, namely the fact that he is secretly sleeping with men.
