Madeleine thinks she's found God through the act of baking. Jobless and spiritually lost, she tries mixing her blood and prayers into a batch of challah bread. The resulting challah proves so transformative that she must open a bakery to meet the growing demand. Eventually, Madeleine must face the darker side of the magic that infuses her baked goods, as well as her intense though timid love for an attractive rabbi. A modern-day tale taken from the Old Testament, Manna is tinged with humor and ethereal mystery.
