Description:
A mistake in church records results in a progressive priest being assigned to an affluent village. He quickly offends his upper-class parishioners by choosing a sanitation worker and a Black man as his assistants and welcoming the evicted Smith family onto the vicarage grounds. He inspires a wealthy elderly woman to embrace generous acts, but his actions ignite controversy throughout the town and wider region.
