Dans la chaleur d'un domaine australien, la jeune Meggie et le séduisant prêtre Ralph tombent follement amoureux l'un de l'autre. Dès lors, au-delà des séparations et des événements tragiques, leurs vies restent intimement liées. Une histoire d'amour qui traite du célibat des prêtres, un sujet tabou.--[Memento].
