Abandoned at birth, Abel, travels to a church in search of his real mother. Upon arrival he is taken in by the compassionate pastor, James, who is curious about the young man. As their relationship develops, an unexpected love affair sparks between the two men, much to the dismay of James' associate Silvia, who's beliefs lay in firm Christian traditions, despite the current shift in views on homosexuality. Ultimately it is her who has to deal with acceptance when she learns the truth about Abel.
