Widowed mother Holly is radically tested when her teenage daughter Betsey experiences a profound enlightenment and insists that her body is no longer her own, but in service to a higher power. Bound to her newfound faith, Betsey refuses to eat but loses no weight. In an agonizing dilemma, torn between love and fear, Holly is forced to confront the boundaries of her own beliefs.

To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
