In New Jerusalem there is no choosing. Everything is chosen for you. If you are a woman, that is. Miriam, a young teen in N.J. is coming upon the sacred day of Matrimony, where a husband and wife are paired. This is a very personal and sacred ritual, and as Miriam's mother has told her -- "The less you expect the better." Miriam thinks she knows who the husband will be because she has dreamt of it, which her mother considers a "gift". Will Caleb, the boy that Miriam loves, be the chosen one for her? And will she ever be able to escape to a world "Outside"?
