Synopsis

Spoiler shield

An elderly woman would like some company as her son is off venturing foreign lands and seducing women from lands afar. Her resident priest who seems to live in the same château as her does not agree and seems to have preconceptions and superstitions as to a family curse.

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
