Three siblings-Carrie, Luke and Oscar-are raised in a pathological family. Their mother cheats on her husband and their father with strange men, and their father is an alcoholic and often violent. He and his wife in addition often beat each other. They also very often abuse their children mentally, less often physically. However, Carrie, Luke and Oscar do not call the police because deep down they do not want to lose their parents, as they believe they still have a chance to become good people again. One day, wandering in the street, they tiredly sit down on the steps of one of the local churches. A priest named James approaches them and asks what happened. After hearing their story, he is horrified, but decides to help the siblings. Instead of calling the police, he takes a Bible with him, and together with Carrie, Luke and Oscar he sets out to have a difficult but transformative conversation with their parents.
