Exceptionnel destin que celui de Jean Marie Lustiger, le juif qui devint cardinal. À 14 ans, en pleine Occupation, il se convertit au catholicisme contre l’avis de ses parents. Il perd sa mère en déportation et se déchire avec son père, qui n’accepte pas son choix. Devenu curé, il se hisse soudain au sommet de la hiérarchie ecclésiastique grâce à Jean Paul II, avec lequel il se lie d’amitié. Mais en 1985, un couvent de carmélites polonaises s’installe dans les murs maudits d’Auschwitz, là où Giselle Lustiger a été gazée. L’évènement déclenche la plus grave crise entre juifs et chrétiens depuis la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Et c’est à ce prince de l’Église pas comme les autres qu’il revient de trouver une issue au conflit qui le bouleverse intimement.

However, Don Luis fears that Fabio will be putting a hit on them, so he sends his henchman Marco (Jordi Mollà) to kill him. Fabio gives his nine-year-old daughter Cataleya (Amandla Stenberg) the information Don Luis wants and tells her it's her "passport"; he also gives her the address of her Uncle Emilio (Cliff Curtis), a criminal in Chicago, who will take care of her if she finds herself alone. The last thing he gives her is something that will keep her safe: his mom's necklace, the cataleya orchid. Fabio tells her to sit at the kitchen table and not move no matter what. After saying their goodbyes, Fabio and his wife Alicia (Cynthia Addai-Robinson) leave to battle Marco and his men but both of them are gunned down as Cataleya listens from the kitchen. Marco tries to manipulate her into giving the information. When he asks what she wants, she stabs him in the hand with a kitchen knife, saying "To kill Don Luis", and escapes. She safely makes it to the U.S. Embassy and gives the Embassy the information in exchange for a passport and passage to the United States. She escapes to the airport, where she makes it to the US and takes a bus to Chicago. Once she finds Emilio, Cataleya asks him to train her as an assassin.
