Sister Rose Thering, a Dominican nun, has dedicated her 67-year career to combating anti-Semitism. The film explores her life, from her childhood in Wisconsin to her teenage vow of celibacy. Archival footage and interviews with scholars and everyday people reveal the pervasive Catholic teaching that Jews were "Christ killers." Sister Rose's research at Saint Louis University in the 1950s led to the influential document "Nostra Aetate," published by the Second Vatican Council in 1965. Since then, she has devoted herself to eradicating anti-Semitism, culminating in a critique of Mel Gibson's "Passion of the Christ."
