The real story of 16 Carmelites nuns during the French Revolution, who after being arrested and condemned to death, went up to the guillotine singing and offering their lives 'so that Peace be restored to the Church and the State'. You may be familiar with the story of the Carmelite martyrs of Compiègne, thanks to Bernanos' "Dialogues des carmélites" or Poulenc's adaptation for opera? But did you know that the central character, Blanche de la Force, never existed? Marked by a childhood memory, documentary director François Lespes ("Valaam, l'archipel des moines", "Jérôme Lejeune : aux plus petits d'entre les miens", 'J'entrerai au Ciel en dansant') wanted to tell the true story of these 16 women, who after being arrested and condemned to death, went up to the guillotine singing and offering their lives 'so that Peace be restored to the Church and the State', 10 days before the fall of Robespierre and the end of the Grande Terreur regime. In our time of great tensions between men and nations, Pope Francis canonized the Carmelites of Compiègne in December 2024, offering their extraordinary testimony to the entire Church and the world: What have they to tell us today?

All of them are in their mid-30's and have moved on with their lives, but sometimes they get together in Morio's room to sing. The reason for the three of them to sing together is to hold the memorial service for their father, who passed away about 30 years ago. It is the only family event in which they drink and sing together. One day, Morio receives a letter from his half-sister Kawase Hatsuki (Maeda Tami), who has been separated from him since his birth. The distant sister, whom he has not heard from for about 30 years, begins to become entangled in the three brothers' relationship.
