Eleven-year-old Anna O'Donnell has stopped eating but remains healthy, prompting suspicion. A nurse is assigned to investigate her case while a journalist seeks a sensational story. Set in the 1850s in the Irish Midlands, the narrative unfolds as the two women delve into Anna's life, uncovering societal pressures and the phenomenon of "fasting girls." Tension builds as they confront the possibility of danger lurking beneath Anna's miraculous survival, leading to questions about faith, truth, and morality.
