Monsignor Renard

Synopsis

Twenty years after taking an acrimonious leave of his family and friends in order to join the Roman church, Monsignor Augustine Renard returns to his home village as parish priest. World War II is well under way, and Nazi occupation is imminent. In addition to reassuring the locals, Renard must also attempt to repair his relationship with estranged brother Yves, who resents his sibling having escaped the responsibility of running the family business.
