On a remote monastery in the 1940s, so the backdrop is the second world war. And the monastery is being presided over by a nun, who i play, whos officiating mass, the priest is dead. And one night, unceremoniously, a young indigenous boy is dumped on the doorstep of the monastery to be cared for as part of the reprehensible Government Policy of assimilation of indigenous children, in order to separate indigenous children from their culture.

Because he lied to the Vice President and the fbi. Its a shame, he said, because his actions during the transition were lawful, there was nothing to hide. Many people are asking why Michael Flynn, a former three star general, did not tell the truth to the fbi about his meetings with the russian ambassador, as the president said, his actions were not against the law, but mr trumps tweet leads to a bigger question, did you know Michael Flynn have lied to the fbi . This is a problem because the former head of the fbi james comey has testified under oath that the president asked him to drop an investigation into Michael Flynn. Legal analysts are now wondering if the president was trying to stop an inquiry into his former adviser, knowing he was guilty, in other words, was he trying to obstruct justice .
