You must've searched out solitude in yer life. At least once.
Three men are off from Coatbridge to an idyllic Italian monastic retreat in search of inner peace and sanctuary.

But even on this remote and tranquil mountain, they can't hide from the chilling story of Jimmy Brogan. Suddenly the past explodes into the present, and they find more redemption than they ever bargained for.
