- Art restorer Sophie mourns the loss of her fiancé, who died suddenly.
- The pretty, young art restorer Sophie Schumacher is looking forward to her wedding to her fiancé Florian. However, unlike the devout Sophie, the pragmatic Florian cannot do anything with the spiritual symbolism of a church marriage. When an argument breaks out between the two of them, Florian gets into his car, drives away - and has a fatal accident. Wracked with guilt, Sophie flees her grief and accepts a job in a remote Tuscan monastery, where she is tasked with uncovering an ancient fresco. There she finds spiritual support in the form of the aspiring priest Luca Divalle. He not only supports her in questions of faith, but also shows her the wild beauty of the Tuscan landscape and introduces her to the single mother Maria, who also lost her husband years ago. But the platonic friendship between Sophie and Luca soon develops into a deep love. However, Lucas' uncle, the strict abbot Costamagna Della Fina, sees Sophie not only as a threat to his nephew's priestly career - he also fears that the intelligent young woman will reveal a dark secret from the monastery's past by uncovering the mysterious fresco could bring light. When he asks Sophie to leave immediately one day, the situation worsens dramatically: there is a fire in the chapel that night. At the last minute, Sophie is able to save herself from the flames. Meanwhile, Luca has decided to prioritize his religious vocation over the call of his heart: he is ordained a priest in a solemn ceremony. Sophie, torn between joy over Lucas' appointment and sadness over her unrequited love, travels back to Germany. But Luca doesn't let the story about Sophie and the fresco rest. He confronts his uncle. This is how Luca learns the truth about a well-kept monastic secret, and suddenly he realizes that a good Christian should always follow the direction of his heart.—ADR Das Erste
