SYNOPSIS
A nun prays as she waits for her turn to be raptured following her ascended congregation. She journeys up the stairway of heaven, where the Angel awaits and offers the nun a communion host that will grant her entry to paradise. The nun must then face the recompense for her devotion: whether or not she has made the right choice, there is no going back from divinity – whatever form it may take.
