In the rural American south, Angel Baby who has been mute from age eight on, is first seen enduring possible date-rape by Hoke. Her mother interrupts and chases Hoke off. Worried about Angel's soul, they go to a tent revival where Paul is preaching. Paul heals her muteness, urging her on to say "God" at first, then "Lord God" and a prayer of thankfulness.
