After years of spiraling addiction, 32-year-old Dejan arrives at an isolated monastery commune run by the strict but magnetic Father Branko. The commune treats addiction through labor, discipline, obedience and faith; immersed in a rigid daily routine with the help of his humble guardian Mionica, Dejan begins his painful journey toward recovery. But when a disturbing video surfaces showing a patient violently enforcing the rules, the outside world takes notice and Dejan is forced to choose between protecting the system that gave him purpose or confronting the truth he can no longer ignore.
