Just as Jane Christmas decides to enter a convent in mid-life to find out whether she is "nun material", her long-term partner Colin springs a marriage proposal on her. Determined not to let her monastic dreams be sidelined, Christmas embarks on a year long adventure to four convents-- one in Canada and three in the UK. In these communities of cloistered nuns and monks, she revels in--and at times chafes against-- the silent, simple existence she has sought off of her life.
