Description
Spoiled with beauty, riches and adoration, a young girl from Avila is sent in 1536 to a convent by her parents to learn discipline, but discovers instead an unparalleled spiritual fervour - one so powerful as to be condemned as sinful by some. She is Saint Teresa, a woman with radical ideas about religious practices."
