Father Engel is an old, sickly parish priest in a small village. Struggling with his faith, he is further troubled by his visits to a local girl who is suffering from an unexplained illness.
As he ponders her condition, a chance meeting on the village path reveals to him that the illness is being orchestrated by the Devil, who has taken the form of Lilith, his housekeeper, as a means to torment him.
He musters all of his strength and returns to the parochial house for a deadly final confrontation with the Devil, risking his own life to save the soul of the child.
