Across an 80 year divide, two men translate the word of God into the English tongue. For one, it means death at the stake. For the other, it could mean an archbishop's mitre.

But deep-seated conflicts force a leading translator to confront the betrayal of his youthful religious ideals, for the sake of social peace.T1799752704Producer Bill Kenwright. Producer Thelma Holt.
