An ambitious American veteran turned priest (Christopher Reeve, Somewhere in Time) journeys to Rome to take his assignment as the Vatican's new treasurer. But upon his arrival, he finds the holy coffer nearIy bare and takes it upon himself to refilI it, striking illegal business deals with a U.S. Army sergeant with ties to the ltaIian Mob. The young priest's moraIity is corrupted even further when he meets and seduces a beautifuI young woman (Genevieve Bujold) on her way to becoming a nun. Can his faith save him before his sins condemn him?
