Le domaine Maréchal est l'un des plus prestigieux vignobles de Bourgogne : planté de 4 hectares de vignes au cœur de la côte de Beaune, il produit des grands crus d'Aloxe-Corton. Le domaine appartient à la même famille depuis la Révolution, mais le propriétaire actuel, François Maréchal, se désintéresse de son exploitation depuis que sa femme l'a quitté et que son fils, Charlie, a refusé de devenir vigneron comme ses ancêtres et a préféré une carrière d'œnologue à Paris, où il publie un guide réputé.

The film opens with a quotation from the Book of Psalms, Psalm 82:6–7: "I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High. But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes." The monks' peaceful routine of prayer, medical assistance, and community interaction is soon interrupted by the threat of an Islamic fundamentalist group. When their elected leader, Christian (Lambert Wilson), declines the protection of the corrupt civil authority, the monks divide amongst themselves on the question of whether to stay or flee Algeria. Before a decision is reached, a group of fundamentalists, led by Ali Fayattia, enters the monks' compound in force on Christmas Eve and demands their doctor and his medical supplies. Christian refuses their requests and cites the Quran as proof of the monks' goodwill. With a mixture of surprise and respect, Fayattia leaves the compound and grants it his protection until his capture, torture and death at the hands of government forces. Despite the growing danger, the monks come to consensus on the moral importance of maintaining their committed lives with, and ministry to, the local population, even when faced with violence and death. Ultimately, the terrorists seize most of the monks during a nighttime raid and hold them hostage. As the captive monks trudge a snowy path towards a grim fate, the film concludes with the spiritual testament of prior Christian de Chergé, bravely written in the face of death.
