Event Details
1964, St. Nicholas in the Bronx. Father Flynn is a charismatic priest who is trying to upend the school's strict customs, which have long been fiercely guarded by Sister Aloysius. With the winds of political change, the school has just accepted its first Black student, Donald Miller. But when Sister James shares with Sister Aloysius her suspicion that Father Flynn is paying too much personal attention to Donald, Sister Aloysius sets off on a personal crusade to unearth the truth and to expunge Flynn from the school. Now, without any proof, besides her moral certainty, Sister Aloysius locks into a battle of wills with Father Flynn.
