Miryam, born of desperate prayer, raised in fear, removed and hidden in the temple of the holy city, returns to Nazareth. Here she is asked for marriage by Yoseph, the village carpenter, who is nevertheless frightened by the love that binds him to a girl whose secret seems to elude everyone. Even to herself. But soon Miryam will discover that the voice that has always accompanied her, woken her up, surprised her, shaken her, is that of a call. Miryam will understand that the courageous choice she is making is the first step towards becoming a disciple of the child she is carrying.
