When a young woman goes to confession and admits her weakness in resisting temptation, the priest has a revelation and takes part in her ultimate sin. A short film about how temptation comes to human beings in many shapes and sizes and how after giving in we often seek forgiveness and absolution, from others and from ourselves. Letting ourselves be overcome by desire is not necessarily immoral, rather something extremely natural.
