Four Benedictine nuns, a priest, and thirty sheep live in the Habsthal convent in southern Germany. Director Sobo Swobodnik delves into the devout daily lives of the convent sisters. The daily spiritual life consists of choir prayers, meditations, Eucharist celebrations, mesmerism and the night prayer, in addition to the care of house and garden. But it hasn't been quiet for a long time, because the Habsthal convent, which looks back on a history of more than 700 years, is visited by more and more guests, for whose care the nuns are also responsible. The Habsthal convent is located in the southern district of Sigmaringen in Upper Swabia. Its history begins in 1257, when Count Palatine Hugo IV gave away his possessions to a Dominican women's community.
