A film on Eucharist in the Episcopal Church that relates the experience of liturgy to the experience of life everyday. The film expresses this relationship by focusing on the lives of four people in the congregation: a street person, a Vietnamese refugee, a Hispanic single mother, and a well-to-do businessman. Scenes from their lives are woven through the liturgical celebration.
