Beyond the Hills

In an isolated Orthodox convent in Romania, Alina has just reunited with her friend Voichiţa after spending several years in Germany. The two women have supported and loved each other since they met as children in an orphanage. Alina wants Voichiţa, the only person she has loved and who has loved her, to return with her to Germany, but Voichiţa, who has found refuge in faith and a family in the nuns and the priest, refuses. In her attempt to convince her friend, Alina confronts the priest.
