A unique retelling of the legend of Joan of Arc, depicting her as a normal adolescent facing tough choices about her future. Young Jenny is torn between the two men in her life: the peasant Colin who offers her love, a home and a family -- and the playful Archangel Michael who offers her glory as the savior of France. Choosing glory over love, Jenny is transformed into Joan only to find herself imprisoned and facing death. Given a final choice to embrace her destiny or deny the existence of her spiritual guide -- and friend -- she makes the ultimate sacrifice.
