The Thorn Birds

Sometimes love is cruel - it pursues, gives false hopes, and deprives you of the opportunity to be with that one. This is the fate of Maggie Cleary, who falls in love with the priest Ralph de Brickassard. Like a bird from an ancient legend searching for a thorny bush to sing its final song, Maggie is ready to endure pain for rare moments beside her beloved. Ralph loves her too, but a vow to God is more important. Having endured losses and trials, Maggie remains faithful to her love.
