Short content:
1862, 13 years after the Great Famine. English nurse Lib Wright (Florence Pugh) is called to the Irish Midlands to conduct a 15-day examination of a member of a community of devotees. Anna O’Donnell (Kíla Lord Cassidy) is an 11-year-old girl who claims to have not eaten in four months, miraculously surviving thanks to “manna from heaven”. As Anna’s health deteriorates rapidly, Lib is determined to discover the truth and challenge the faith of a community that prefers to remain faithful.
