The Story
Synopsis
Sister Caritas meets her old adversary Christina, now a mute stroke victim placed in Caritas' care. Years before, Christina had unsuccessfully challenged Caritas over her sexual abuse of children — including Christina's own son.
All Christina can do is smile, as she knows she has set in motion a legal attack on Caritas, once she herself has died.
Stars Maggie Evans, with a solo piece sung by Cormac Thompson and music composed by Jude Litoff. Available on YouTube.
