Anna, a young slave girl, is rescued and adopted by Christians in 2ND Century Smyrna, and befriended by their bishop. Since Polycarp along with also her new family teaches Anna, she struggles to reconcile her own beliefs with those of the Christians. When the Roman proconsul demands that all citizens worship Caesar to demonstrate their allegiance to Rome, Polycarp as well as the Christians must seek courage to endure against the growing threat of persecution for their faith. Anna is forced to come to grips with all the truth and choose whom she's prepared to reside, and die for.
