Sorcerer's Apprentice

A teenage boy is sent to live with a priest in the depths of the Sarladais. Soon the adolescent meets a young boy. The priest knows of their involvement and guides his pupil to seek out his own soul in strange, almost supernatural rituals. This tense, shadowy tale, burning with love, is a eulogy in praise of difference, an act of worship to beauty in nature.
