在这部愤怒的慈悲片中,影片通过四个修女的视角，给观众讲述的是她们如何在宗教职业领域争取女性平权的故事。激进的女权主义与天主教信仰水火不容，美国医疗改革涉及的堕胎社会问题、梵蒂冈教会改革涉及的女牧师权益等都是尖锐矛盾的体现。保守主义者视她们如眼中钉，而她们却以上帝的名义充分利用司法政治制度关注关爱弱势群体。
Today, Pope Francis is changing the Vatican's conservative tone. But for decades, U.S. nuns have been bucking the Church hierarchy by living a gospel of love, social justice and inclusion. From confronting U.S. bishops over the Affordable Care Act, to protesting for women's equality at the Vatican, Radical Grace follows three sisters who transform American politics and the Catholic Church.
