In a village on a Norwegian fjord lives a strange, luminous figure whom young Minna loves as Seraphitus and the restless Wilfrid loves as Seraphita. Steeped in the mystical teachings of Swedenborg, the being leads them through talks on nature, science, faith and heaven, toward an ending that is pure vision.
