Rachel is a rambunctious teenager from a fundamentalist Mormon family in Utah. On Rachel’s 15th birthday, she discovers a forbidden cassette tape with rock music on it. Having never heard anything like it, she has a miraculous experience. Three months later, Rachel turns up pregnant and claims to have had an immaculate conception from listening to the music in the cellar. Rachel’s parents don’t believe in this mysterious explanation and arrange a marriage for her with the son of the neighbor, but Rachel runs away to the closest city, Las Vegas. Together with her elder brother, Mr. Will, she begins to search for the man who sings on the cassette tape, thinking he has something to do with her mysterious pregnancy. (Live Wire Films)
