The school’s principal is certain that a younger priest is sexually abusing one of her pupils. Her rigid opinions clash with the priest’s more modern and flexible outlook and the beliefs of the student’s mother, and eachpoint of view is eloquently presented. Doubt generates discussion about morality, faith, community, and the many facets of truth.
