A heretical text, a vengeful husband, a forbidden love... It's 1310
and Paris is alive with talk of the trial of the Templars.
Religious repression is on the rise, and the smoke of execution
pyres blackens the sky above the city. But sheltered behind the
walls of Paris's great beguinage, a community of women are still
free to work, study and live their lives away from the domination
of men. When a wild, red-haired child clothed in rags arrives at
the beguinage gate one morning, with a sinister Franciscan monk on
her tail, she sets in motion a chain of events that will shatter
the peace of this little world-plunging it into grave danger...
