Synopsis:
A young conflicted NY priest, Alex Bermier (Ledger), helps a female detective, Lucy Sinclair (Sossamon), investigating the case of the French ambassador, whose corpse was covered with mysterious religious symbols written in Aramaic. When he sends his former teacher, Father Dominic, at the Vatican the signs to decode, Alex is summoned to Rome where the mystery continues. It seems this murder may be the work of the last (Cassel) of an ancient Christian order (outside the Catholic Church) called the "Sin Eaters", a person who claims to absolve the guilty of their sins, except there's one catch: the absolution is fatal.
