[Father Simon] Lord, most holy Father,
You wanted the crown of Your Son to be the source of all blessing,
Be favorable to us, we who have erected it as the sign of our faith
and grant us to remain united here below,
You who annihilated yourself by taking the condition of a servant, give us
to proclaim Your victorious cross,
May she be strength and support
to walk without falling on the paths, Amen,
[a motor starts]
Take care, Simon,
Stop!
Come on, get in,
[soft music]
Where is my blue shirt?
No, the one with the wider collar,
It's in the dirty room, you put it in yesterday,
Mrs, Berthaud on the phone, She is waiting for you at the hospital,
What should I tell him?
I welcome new arrivals,
Tomorrow morning, is it possible?
Tomorrow morning,
Yes,
I understand,
Today, She insists,
Okay, I'm going,
No, leave it,
I will come by in the afternoon,
I tried again yesterday, it still doesn't work,
Yes, I restarted, Yes,
A month?
Isn't that possible before?
A church without heating in January, it's sporty,
Times are definitely difficult,
Since the revelations of the Sauvé
report, everyone has been on edge,
But you have to stay positive,
- Monsignor Guillaume will be there? - No,
Monsignor Guillaume is unwell,
Nothing serious, I hope,
A small drop in tension,
What do you want, it's age,
- I count on your discretion, - Of course,
Since the pandemic, contactless has become widespread,
Of course, it is an investment, but the
digital trunk means less cash transportation,
In the parishes where it is installed,
there is a real increase in donations,
This is for our parish,
Plus 25% since the installation of the terminals,
Installation costs, how are they distributed
between the diocese and the parishes?
Oh,
How is he doing?
Up to you,
He died in his sleep after dinner,
Go ahead, he's waiting for you,
I'm going there, A kid put a nail in an electrical outlet,
We'll see if it's light,
Our Father who art in heaven,
hallowed be Your name, Your
kingdom come, Your will be
done on Earth as it is in heaven,
Give us today our daily bread,
Forgive us our trespasses as we also
forgive those who trespass against us,
And do not let us enter into temptation, but deliver us from evil,
Amen,
We are more and more marginalized,
- You are generalizing, - No, I don't think so,
Then, it's our fault,
We should involve the laity more,
Allow them to be more active, like they do in the countryside,
It's not ideal, but it works, And that would relieve us,
Given the context, We're not doing so badly,
Have you seen your face and your dark circles? They look like the Lascaux caves,
We could at least train them on burials,
- What if they distort the texts? - They can read anyway,
I don't want them to scatter,
They already have a lot to do to live their faith,
Faith is also found in the most trivial actions, Table football!
- I have to write my homily, - It will inspire you,
No, No, Just one, then,
Stop!
You can't rake like that,
- Those are the rules from before, - But no !
- There, he's good, - I wasn't ready,
- Yes, you were ready, - I didn't have my hands on,,,
With Simon, you have to be ready,
Don't you have a homily to write?
A deceased person is said to have ascended to heaven,
as if the sky was far away,
at the ends of the universe,
No, the sky is here,
from the smallest of particles to the most distant of galaxies,
And it is not death that leads us there,
but life,
The one guided by the Lord,
Joseph Berthaud
is the very example of this power of life,
The opposite of the misery of men without god, of which
Blaise Pascal,
Those who refuse the present moment and anticipate
the future they perceive as too slow to come,
Or who recall the past to stop it,
So reckless, that they wander in times
which are not theirs,
Let us not succumb to the call of nothingness,
God is Father,
- THANKS, - Jesus told us,
Revealed in the
face of His Son,
He guides us, He
supports us, He loves us,
Now, and for eternal life,
Amen,

Simon,
-Louise, - Yes,
I know well, It's been a long time, What is,,,
Did you know Mr, Berthaud?
No, no,,,
- Is he your son?
It's yours too,
- My father? - No, Yes, Pardon,
- Here we go, - Thank you, but I'm not coming,
Ladies and Gentlemen, we are going to the cemetery,
If you want to follow us,
If you have a minute,,,
It's complicated, See you later,
Where?
Why didn't you tell me anything?
Because I was in Montreal when I found
out, and I wanted to call you, but hey,,,
What would that have changed?
We didn't have any projects in common, You didn't want children,
- You don't know that, - Please,
You were going to become a priest,
[vibrator]
And after?
During these years, what did you do?
Well like everyone else, work,
I moved quite a bit: Montreal, Vancouver, Toronto,
- [vibrate] - Damn, excuse me, it's the job,
- They piss me off, - I have no money,
It's not money I want at all,
What then?
- Did you wash your hands? - Yes,
- Did you wash your hands? - I told you yes,
What do we do then?
What do we mean, what do we do?
- Did you ask him? - Ask him the question,
Uh,,,
Can we sleep at your place? Because the hotel sucks,
Eh ? No,
And then, I live with another priest,
Listen, I have
responsibilities here, people trust me,
If I welcome you, I,,,
It's not possible,
Where is your hotel?
In the center,
Next to the church,
So, It will cost you less than a room,
And it's more discreet than in the city center,
But that doesn't bother you?
The owner died, She bequeathed her property to the parish,
I should put it up for sale, but I don't have time,
It's not the latest trends,,,
I like it,
We agree that it is temporary,
Yeah,
[intriguing music]
[sigh]
"The serious scandal caused by,,,"
",,,will urge the priest to present his renunciation within 15 days,"
- It was a shock, - The land is not ours,
Neither does the building, ultimately,
A religious building built before
1905 belongs to the State, it is the law,
But we can't just do nothing,
What do you believe?
Who negotiated to postpone the start of the work?
Who organized the donation drive?
Who moved the ordeal?
This deplorable image, where does it come from?
- We don't make enough headlines? - That has nothing to do with it,
I should have been more careful,
Well there you go,
It's not in your parish,,,
- It's on the deanery, - And the dean is Simon,
Father Erwann is right, We don't need this image,
But we did our best to save the ordeal,
You do your best, but it is insufficient,
The calvaries are historical landmarks,
We should have clung to the cross,
Why not ? It would have been a nice symbolic act,
But hang on, you,
Excuse me,
Good,,, Repairing the roof of Sainte-Anne,
What are you doing here?
Is this where you live?
Who are these people?
- Can I come? - Where is your mother?
Simon?
- Good morning, - Good morning,
Aloe, my nephew,
Do you have a brother?
No, yes, a sister,
We come from Canada, We came to see Uncle Simon,
- They surprised me, - Nice,
You will have to come and eat at
the presbytery with your mother,
That would be great,
- I have things to do this week, - Come on,
We'll see, Can you finish without me?
Yeah, sure,
- See you soon, Aloe, - See you soon,
-Amine, - Yes ?
Take it easy with Erwann,
Where is your mother?
She works, she told me to come here,
What ? But,,,
- Can I visit? - No,
- For what ? - It's not for children here,
Are you hungry?
[soft music]
Are you not eating?
Farmed salmon are infested with viruses and parasites,
In addition, these fish are fed
with mussels caught in enormous
quantities, increasing CO2 emissions,
Moreover, salmon
absorbs toxins and
heavy metals linked to
ocean pollution into its fat,
So say,
You know things,
Did you learn that at school?
No,
On the Internet,
Do you know chinkaras?
- It's what ? - Chinkaras are blue
antelopes from North India, and more
and more poachers are massacring them,
There is a people, the
Bishnois, who try to protect them,
Mom promised me that we would go see them in person, you can come,
Afterwards, don't get angry with the Bishnois,
For what ?
Because they are Hindus and you,,,
Well what?
[soft music]
Dad ?
Simon,
Call me Simon,
Thanks for the restaurant,
[a mother] In a few
weeks, it will start to show,
What will people say?
However, she was always very wise,
She was studious,
But this year, I don't know what's wrong with him,
Do you realize?
Pregnant at 16,
My father?
And the father? Finally, the boy knows?
So his parents
want us,,,
Finally, you know,
What do we do?
Tell us,
A baby is not bad news,
It's even the opposite,
No ?
Marion,,,
Know that God hears a sob better than a cry,
The Lord is with you, He loves you,
through your family, the community,
Let's think together and we will
transform your problem into a solution,
[soft music]
[someone is whistling and approaching]
- You scared me, - Why are you in the dark?
Do you watch porn?
I was doing research for a homily,
Oh yes, it's not the same,
How are you ?
Good,
Good research then,
Do you have the final season of Game of Thrones?
No ? Good,
Good night !
I am not yelling at you, I am just,,,
I am not the only one to solve this,
Yeah, but,,,
Okay,
I am on the other side of the ocean,
Do you understand the word "vacation"? Of course I know!
Yeah,
Then,,,
Send me the latest update,
Pardon,
- You could have warned me about yesterday, - Of ?
You have work to do, OK, but so do I,
I fell asleep, he took the opportunity to go out,
You weren't worried?
[sigh] He is 11 years old, Simon,
He had a blast with you yesterday, He talked to me about it all evening,
Why are you here?
I would like you to recognize Aloe,
- “Recognition”? - At the civil registry,
For what ?
So that he has someone besides me, A father,
I can't have children,
- Did you explain it to him? - He knows that you are a priest,
But for me it's abstract, so for him,,,
[soft music]
Thanks to this technology, the garment was found to
retain up to 13 times less moisture than traditional cotton,
So it dries very
quickly and also,
the athlete can stay
dry throughout the effort,
- That's great, - Yes,
Synthetic made by Chinese children,
Not at all, all these clothes are made in Thailand
by properly paid adults, and you know it,
[Amine] We feel that you love what you do,
You're Arab, Why aren't you Muslim?
- Aloe, please, - No, no,
No, please,
Very good question,
I was born in Algeria, in fact,
My paternal grandparents, so
my dad's parents were Catholic,
My mother was Muslim,
They met, loved each other, and my mother
decided to convert to her husband's religion,
And why?
I don't know,
She didn't tell me,
I always thought she felt the love of
Christ, And then they passed it on to me,
It couldn't have been simple,
In the 1980s,
things were okay,
It was in the 1990s that things got complicated,
Pressure on Christians,
they had to hide to pray,
- Oh yes ? - Yes,
And then, I met the bishop of Oran,
It was this man who guided
me to become a priest,
[Louise] Wow,
I have a friend, his father is an imam,
It's not the same as priest, then?
Be careful, it's hot,
Snails, Hop, there you go,
- Gorgeous, I'll put it there for you, - Aloe,
You're going to taste it, We're invited, you make an effort,
- There's some spinach quiche left, - No,
- Oh well yes, - Sorry, thank you,
- Snails,,, - I don't want to,
- You can taste it, - No,
Thank you so much,
- Settle in with us, - No, thank you,
- Really ? - I have work,
[Louise] It looks very good,
And the dad?
If it's not indiscreet,
I raised Aloe alone,
All alone, all alone?
Yes,
It must not have been easy with your responsibilities,,,
I managed,
Aloé's dad was not available, anyway,
Maybe the dad didn't have all the information,
[sigh]
When were you planning to tell me?
- What ? - Stop, Simon,
Stop,
- You have a son, - Nothing proves it,
Well let's see,
What are you going to do?
- The dishes, - You can't stay like this,
- I know, Amine, - Did you warn the bishop?
[Simon sighs]
You know what having a child entails,
I dedicated my life to God, I don't want to leave now,
Who's talking to you about leaving?
You know how it goes,
Look, do what you want, but,,,
lying won't help you,
[Amine walks away]
Douchka is
her name,
I found her in the street sleeping between two trash cans,
Did you know that every year, 100,000
animals are abandoned by the French?
100,000!
A tragedy,
I need to talk to you,
Tell me,
So,,,
I have a problem, Finally,,,
What would happen if,,,
Yes ?
What would happen if a seminarian had a,,,
an affair with a woman?
Although it is not encouraged, it is
possible that a boy called to
consecrated life may also feel a romantic desire,
In this case, it is up to you to guide
him, to identify the path that he decides on,
What if he found out the girl was pregnant?
Oh,
This is,,,
That's another problem,
For what ? Is this the case?
I,,, Yes, finally,,,
No, I don't want to know anything,
Remind him that,,,
the priestly mission is a path of sanctification
incompatible with family life,
If life
manifests itself, it must be welcomed,
It is God's will,
And so?
Simon,
God knows how much our Church needs new consecrated people,
But the priesthood is a complete and radical call,
Courage, self-sacrifice, dedication
what the vocation demands are infinite,
And despite the doubts,
pain,
the weight of the cross,
there is no going back,
Tell him to leave the seminary,
What a day, otherwise the sum of 24 hours?
Get up, go to school,
go to Instagram or Twitter,
go home, watch a series,,, -Black Mirror,
Thank you, Arnaud,
But life is more than that,
Liking a status or signing a
digital petition behind your
screen, for you, does that mean committing?
Yes, a little,
The commitment, it is the choice to
say no to the resignation of everyday life,
“I don’t want to be reduced to a digital existence,”
Until proven otherwise, we do
not live in a computer program,
Black Mirror, always,
Take off your things, you,
Get involved,,,
It is choosing to comply with a constraint and assume it
to make the world around us better,
So yes, for that, you have to get out of your comfort zone,
Come out of yourself to defend a cause that is bigger than you,
Take risks,
accept being filled with such powerful potential
that it is hard to imagine that our being could contain it,
Does that scare you?
But good news,
we are not alone,
And there,
this infallible support is the gift of a Father who watches over us,
who guides us in our choices
and helps us to cope with difficulties,
Who wants to speak?
[slight coughing]
She came with her mother, We have to see each other again,
She doesn't want to keep the child,
It's not that simple,
Are you kidding? She just told me,
She is 10 weeks old,
Do you know what that means?
- Can I eat one? Just one? - No, put it back,
Go wait for us in the church,
- Listen,,, - No, you, listen,
You play the preacher,
but there is no one to help,
It's not true, I help young people,
Oh yes ?
By standing idly by? Did you put yourself in his place?
- Do you know what she's going through? - We're thinking,
In 15 days, the abortion is over,
The Church never advises taking life,
To demonstrate against marriage for all, there are people,
- You mix everything up, - But it's not about me!
She can't tell anyone about it, What do you do for her?
Wonderful,
- Good morning, - Good morning,
- What is this abortion story? - Nothing,
- Did you speak to the bishop? - [he nods]
What did he tell you?
He has a new dog,
[soft music on the organ]
[Father Simon] I understand, yes,
Yes of course,
That's not what I'm saying, I'm just saying,,,
- Hello ? - [bell]
A wheelchair in the sand, it's complicated,
Is it yours?
Put it back,
Pardon,
I know, I do what I can,
It is a pilgrimage to the holy
land, not a trip to Lourdes,
[he nods]
Let's set up a meeting, What is your availability?
No, sorry, Monday
is my day off,
Yes,
Tuesday, is that okay for you?
Hello ?
[doorbell]
- [broken glass] - It's not true! Aloe!
Leave it, you'll cut yourself,
[sigh]
I'm sorry,
It's nothing, it's just a frame,
THANKS,
To be there and,,,
not to say anything to my mother and Father Simon,
Is he nice to you?
He does lots of things for us, He is there when we need,
It'll be OK,
To us,
You can change your mind,
Come on, go ahead,
I'll keep it for you if you want,
Can you come with me?
- Come, - Okay,
You'll see, it's great, There are lots of cartoons,
Hmm, I know,
I'm going back, you don't bother me,
It's over there,
THANKS,
Settle down,
It's not that we're against protocol, but
we would like,,, I don't know if it's possible,
We would like a slightly modern baptism,
The other time, we went to a baptism, it wasn't,,,,
It was horrible,
Maybe we'll feed her,
Come see me, sweetie,
Why do you want to baptize her?
For the family,,,
THANKS,
For tradition,
It’s mostly because we want to,
Hi,
- Do you want to try? - Yes,
Hold,
- Ouch! - Oh, damn,
It's good ? How are you ?
Aloe!
Do you know the priest?
Yes, he's my f,,, my uncle,
It's good, fixed,
- Should I go to the hospital? - No, they are hard-headed at that age,
Oh dear, show see,
That's not very pretty,
Needs treatment,
Okay, come on,
There are rules, people are counting on me,
You just had to stay with me,
I have work, you know,
You're like mom, actually,
- It's complicated, Aloe, - No, it's simple,
You don't want me,
It's not true, it's just,,,
- And stay discreet, - I'm tired of being discreet!
- You're ashamed of me, that's all, - That's not true,
Why does everyone call you "My
Father" and I can't call you "Daddy"?
It's too early, people wouldn't understand,
But what does it do?
[ringtone]
Go ahead, answer,
What do you want to do?
Um, I don't know, A cool thing,
Each color corresponds to a time,
White is for the holidays: Christmas, Easter,,,
Purple is for Advent,
And today, it's ordinary time, it's green,
The color of hope,
And this is the bell control panel,
Is it electric?
Yes, I'm not going to spend my day pulling on the ropes,
You enter the time, frequency and melody to play,
Can we see them?
The bells?
No, too dangerous,
Come on,
- Please, - No,
[soft cheerful music]
[testing for resonance] Oh,
It's curdling, isn't it?
I asked you for a day,
I find him disguised as an altar boy with the arch open,
- It's you, you left me your kid, - Our kid,
- Where were you anyway? - It's none of your business,
- A bit easy, that, - Is it easy?
Eleven years that I do everything for him, at
the office, at home, that I make sure he is happy,
You know what it is, 11 years entirely dedicated to your kid?
- Do you know or not? - You chose it,
Well yes,
But it's still hard,
I didn't choose what happened, Do you understand that?
I want you to spend time with him, like a father,
- It's not possible, - For what ?
Because I am a priest,
This is my calling,
No one is going to take that away from me,
It’s not a mistake from 11 years ago that’s going to stop me from accomplishing it,
Alright,
[sigh]
Louise?
I'm sorry about earlier,
I didn't want,,,
It was stupid,
I told myself we could go out, This evening,
Together, all three of us,
[rock music]
[applause and cheers]
Thank you, thank you,
The next song is for my friends, Simon and Amine,
[catchy rock music]
Come on, come on, Come on !
[Louise] We were very close friends before,
We told each other everything,
It's changed a little,
I feel it, I,,,
I see it in his eyes,
Can't your family help you?
Doesn’t Aloe have any cousins ​​her age?
I lost my parents, and my
brother, finally the real one,,,
We haven't spoken to each other for years,
And you ?
Didn't you have any doubts?
- Doubts? - I don't know,
What makes you say: “I want to do this”?
- “Do this,” - But no,,,
How do you wake up one morning and say: “I want to become a priest”?
There are as many answers as there are priests,
My mother was very Catholic,
Mass every Sunday,
My father,,,
he found a good excuse to dry up,
Which suited me quite well,
But he left when I was 10,
Very quickly, it was
obligatory mass, confession,,,
After my studies, I taught philosophy,
At 25, after the death of my mother,
I approached the parish to help,,,
and that wasn't enough for me,
So I went to Argentina to work in an NGO,
In a village, I went into a
church, there was a mass,
I didn't understand anything the priest said,
But,,,
I felt a,,,
a depth, a,,,
a balance,
- And that's it, is that all? - [he nods]
- What did you imagine? - Something more,,,
mystical, - An appearance of Jesus?
Something like that,
- No ? - No,
No, it doesn't do that,
- Ah good ? - Well, not for me,
This thing is good,
No, it's disgusting,
And,,,
Don't you miss human contact?
- No, - No, no,
Don't you feel alone sometimes?
I chose the consecrated life to never feel alone,
- No, - How are you,
You see, Madame Ferrieu, whose house we are at,
One day, a little before his death, she told me
that she understood my celibacy,
Because when I was with her, I was really with her,
The others,
his family, children, caregivers,
there is always someone waiting for them,
They have their lives,
But no one is waiting for me,
No one I should love
more than her
when I'm with her,
And that made her happy,
Now that will change,
[melancholy music]
Good morning,
Bless me, My Father, because I have sinned,
I confess to Almighty God,
I acknowledge before my brothers
that I have sinned in thought, in
word, in action and in omission,
Yes, I really sinned,
May God be in your heart so that
you can confess His love and your sin,
Lord, You know everything,
You know I love you,
When was your last confession?
To my profession of faith,
Your presence here is a big step, feel free to speak,
[she whispers] I had an abortion,
You have experienced a painful ordeal, Marion,
Painful in your flesh and in your feelings,
But the Lord is here to help you,
But My Father,
I killed him,
May God Our Father show you His mercy,
Through the death and resurrection of His Son Jesus Christ,
may He give you forgiveness and peace,
[soft music]
It's me,
Are you there?
I have croissants,
Oh, I took my day,
The weather is nice, we could go hiking,
How are you ?
Where is your mother?
Courier from Louise Fisher, leave a message,
You have reached Louise Fisher's voicemail, leave a message,
Louise, it's Simon,
I'm with Aloé here,
What is this letter?
I don't know what came over you, but,,,
Remind me,
So,
You can put your stuff here,
You're going to have a bathroom just for you,
I sleep on the floor below, If you need it, don't hesitate,
You're going to be good here,
Are you hungry?
We have everything we need,
Bread, milk,,,,
Jam,
It'll be OK,
You stay here, I'm going to go get her,
I promise, I'll find her,
You have to leave her alone,
I know it's complicated, but she will come back,
No,
She can't take care of me anymore,
You don't talk to a kid like that,
Maybe she's on a plane to Canada,
- We can't keep him here, - Should I leave him on the street?
The presbytery doesn't belong to us,
I don't have time for a moral lesson,
Where the fuck are these keys?
[metallic ringing]
Do you want to help me? Watch Aloe while I'm gone,
She took her things, it's not a disappearance,
And then, she's an adult, right?
Yes, but,,,
We were together,
Together ?
Yes, no, No,
We were together yesterday, We saw each other yesterday, we were
supposed to see each other again this morning and she didn't come,
- Did you take her home yesterday? - Yes,
- Did you enter the apartment? - Yes,
- Was anyone in the apartment? - No,
- She has enemies? - No,
Are you thinking about a kidnapping?
No, I have,,,
Let's start again,
Who is this for you, this Mrs, Fisher?
My sister,
Finally,,,
Your stories don't concern me, but we will have to speak honestly,
[vibrator]
Amine told me to wait here,
When I think that you came to
see me, and that we talked, Eh ?
And this seminarian story,,,
Finally, Simon, you can't lie like that,
If you had been sincere, I could have helped you,
But we don't play with the Institution,
There are rules to respect,
I told you, I didn't know it existed,
He was born before I was a priest,
I agree, but,,,
However, if the affair becomes known,,,
- Do you have a relationship with her? - She ?
The mother,
Do you,,,
No ! Finally ! Not for 11 years,
And that's not the question,
[the bishop coughs]
Are you doing well ?
It's okay, it's okay, it's nothing,
What do you expect from me?
The greatest discretion,
You said not to lie,
It is not a question of lying
here, but of a mental reserve,
I don't really see the difference,
Lying consists of telling the false
with the intention of deceiving the
person who has the right to the truth,
The truth is not a universal right,
In some cases,
mental reserves are necessary,
Not to mention that it could fall on Aloé,
Simon,
your error should not reflect on the diocese,
I'm counting on you,
For the good of all,
Louise's messaging,,,
[Rozenn] He's smart, this kid,
Like his father,
Amine told you?
I knew it as soon as I saw it,
You're not the first this has happened to,
And you won't be the last,
The bishop tells me to be quiet,
Did you expect anything else?
When I arrived here,
it was Father Denis the priest,
a working priest,
He had formed the local branch of the CFDT,
For sure he didn't count his hours,
I had left my husband,
left everything behind me,
He welcomed me,
He listened to me,
A good priest,
One of the best I've known,
On the other hand, with the bishopric, It wasn't going well at all,
From the 1960s,
it had to be modern so that the faithful would stay,
But finally modern, especially not too much,
And Father Denis,
as he had a tendency to come out of the nails, he got tired
and he ended up leaving,
Like many, in fact,
Don't you dare do the same to us,
- I can't, - You can't what?
Take care of him alone, hide him, it's going too fast,
- I have to find Louise, - Stop with Louise,
She had her reasons for leaving,
He needs you,
So assume,
[melancholy music]
I call on You in the day of my distress, and You, Lord, answer me,
There is none among the gods like You, and there is nothing like Your works,
I thank You, Lord my God, I will
always give glory to Your name,
The powerful have banded together to destroy me, they have no concern for You,
You, Lord of tenderness and pity, slow to anger,
look towards me, take pity on me,
Give Your servant Your strength and save the son of Your servant,
Perform a sign in my favor,
Then my humiliated enemies will see that You, Lord,
You help me and console me,
[together] Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
[he whispers] Simon,
- May the Lord be with you, - [together] And with you too,
The Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John,
At that time, Jesus said to those of the Jews
who believed in him:
"If you remain faithful to my word,
“you are truly my disciples,
“Then you will know the truth,
“And the truth will set you free,”
They replied to him:
"We are the descendants of Abraham
“and we don’t have…”
[Amine whispers] Simon,
A few days ago,
This child asked me a question that I couldn't answer,
Out of apprehension, out of selfishness,,,
However, his question was simple,
He asked me why you were calling me
"My Father" and he couldn't call me "daddy",
This child is my biological son,
And I wanted to hide it,
It was a mistake, I beg your pardon,
But today, I no longer want to leave his questions unanswered,
This is why I decided, while
continuing my mission with you,
to take care of him,
If fertility nourishes the soul,
productivism superficially
nourishes man and reduces, in his
quest for growth, mystery to nothingness,
We thus arrive at the episode of
the Tower of Babel, in Genesis,
which we will construct, or
deconstruct, who knows, next Tuesday,
Thank you,
From a canonical point of view, you can
combine the ministry with custody of your son,
Besides, the Pope, despite his
recent declarations, would like
relaxation regarding the personal lives of priests,
In your case, it is a purely institutional concern,
SO ? Should I go to Rome?
No,
The Holy Father has no authority over your case,
If I write him a letter, a request for an exemption?
That's not the question,
The pope must be the guarantor of the communion of the whole Church,
In your case, It’s up to your bishop to decide,
You haven't changed,
Student, you were the same,
- How ? - [the man laughs]
That's your problem,
Always focused on the “how”,
The main thing is not there, It’s in the “why”,
I don't follow you,
Where are you?
Your faith,
Do you know what it's like to take care of a child?
You, you know?
Understand that with your son's
education, your investment will suffer,
How do pastors do it?
Maronite priests?
Anglicans?
The imams? The rabbis?
Are they underinvested in their communities?
[he sighs] Big speeches are good,
But there is also a reality, What will you do when
you have a meeting on the other side of the region?
Or late night dinners?
You will have to make a choice,
This choice will fall on your son,
It's natural,
Not to mention that if I authorize
this, your case could set a precedent,
And that could encourage other priests,,, to misbehave,
Any deviations?
Your interest must come second to that of the faithful,
And Aloe’s interest?
Does it come before or after the community?
Before, of course,
You won't force me to hide it,
- It's not about me, - If !
We are surrounded by hypocrisy,
- Don't say that, - Look at you,
You are sick,
Nobody says anything,
No, I'm doing very well,
Is seeking human warmth from a dog okay?
I need you,
- That you support me, - I support you, Simon,
I will never force you to leave,
But I don't condone your staying,
You need perspective, you are lost,
Go on a spiritual retreat,
Go with your son,
And the faithful?
The faithful need calm, you too,
Have faith in me,
I have faith in God,
In you, I trust,
[Aloe] Why are we going there?
[Simon] To think, to rest,
Think about what? There's nothing to think about,
It will do us good,
How are you ?
Wait,
So, It's better, right?
[he nods]
[soft music on the organ]
[Aloe] Are you going to lose your job?
[Simon] No, I'm not going to lose my job,
But normally, you don't have the right to have a child,
No, that's not true,
All adults have the right,
Why are Amine and the others upset?
They're not upset, They,,,
They're just not used to it, that's all,
Don't worry, it'll be fine, It'll work out,
I'm glad you're a priest and not a monk,
- For what ? - [he whispers] It’s boring,
[Simon laughs]
- Won, - What ? No,
Yes, diagonally,
[Simon] Did I wake you up?
Shall we go back?
[soft music]
So,
There's orange juice and milk, The bread is near the coffee maker,
Above all, make yourself at home,
Aloe gets up at 9am,
The school will find a place for him,
It's a matter of weeks, days even,
Come on, cheers up!
I listen to you, My Father,
I would like to recognize my son,
Oh,
What are you doing here?
It's Alicia's baptism today,
Yes, I know, I came for that,
Thank you, Amine, but I will celebrate it,
There are tensions in the deanery, you can't,,,
I can't what?
Until proven otherwise, I have the right to celebrate,
I made the preparation, I celebrate baptism,
Alicia, despite our doubts, we present you
to the Church so that you may be baptized,
Because we want you to join the Lord’s family,
I baptize you in the name
of the Father and of the
Son and of the Holy Spirit,
God marks you with the oil of
Salvation, so that you may
abide in Christ for eternal life,
[applause]
My Father,,,
[he struggles to speak]
Breathe, René,
The school, the principal,,, He's online,
- They have a place for Aloe, - I'll take it,
You don't have to come up every time, René,
Just press 1 at the bottom, I told you,
You can go, I'll finish,
I feel like I'm falling into a hole,
I'm having trouble breathing, I'm shaking,
I feel like throwing up,
I feel like I'm going to spend my life dying,
It's anxiety attacks, it should pass,
But it doesn't work,
I'm sorry,
I have disappointed God,
God doesn't blame you,
He never wanted you,
Those who say otherwise are wrong,
The only one who has to be sorry here, it's me,
I didn't listen to you,
I wasn't there when you needed me,
What you feel, this weight on your shoulders, I contributed to it,
And I ask your forgiveness,
You made a courageous decision, Marion,
No one should judge you for that,
Not me, not your family, not anyone,
And then,,,
And then we piss them off,
Those who judge, who want
to decide for you, fuck them,
Eh ?
Go ahead, shoot!
Go ahead, go ahead!
[soft music]
There,
Chinkaras,
[Rozenn] Simon, is that you?
Where were you? I've been trying to contact you for hours,
In the circle, with the young people,
She called,
- She ? -Louise,
I know where she is,
I turn everything over in my head,
I don't sleep, I think about everything,
But everything: work, shopping,
Aloé's homework, car maintenance,,,
It doesn't stop,
I say to myself: “Tomorrow is good,
"The anxiety will pass, the anger too, It’s going to get better,”
But no, the slightest email,,,
the slightest call, whenever I have to make a decision,,,
I am paralyzed,
I don't even understand,,,
because,,, It's okay, I'm looking good,
We don't see anything,
But I don't know,,,
I tell myself that I'm overwhelmed, that,,,
that I'm not going to make it,
Afterwards, I don't want it to fall on Aloé,
I don't want him to feel it,
Plus, at work, it's,,,
Finally, I love my job, that's not the problem,
I don't know what to do,
It is,,,
It's like I don't know who I am anymore,
You should have told me about it, I would have,,,
What would you have done?
Me, I,,,
I just wanted to disappear,
Erase me,
I did anything,
How is Aloe?
- GOOD, - That's good,
GOOD,
It's a big change for him, but it's okay,
Finally, I believe,
I saw a lawyer,
I will admit it,
And for your work?
Don't worry about that, that,,,
That'll be fine,
It'll be fine,
[soft music]
- Or ? - Well, look,
So,
We're going to eat, will you help me with the table?
Yes,
Can he eat with us?
Are you eating with us?
- With pleasure, of course, - [bell]
Hello, Simon,
For the moment, the diocesan
administrator will be elected
pending the appointment of a new bishop,
What are you going to do?
I don't know yet,
I am relieved of a weight, you can't know,
[Aloe] Give the ball, Douchka,
[Simon] Can I ask you a question?
[Aloe] Come on!
Now that you're no longer in charge, do you support me?
It's important,
[Aloe] Dushka! Give the ball!
Come on,
Simon, we invited you
with the College to
find a favorable outcome
to the situation you have put us in recently,
We have received the congregation's response to your letter,
The letter was addressed to the Holy Father,
He cannot respond to all personal requests,
But you have been heard,
The congregation leaves it up to us to sort this out at the local level,
Here is the result of our investigation,,,
An investigation?
The investigation that concerns you, Simon,
We agree on one point:
your son must come first,
This child needs a father,
especially at his age,
Also, after discussion, It appears obvious that your
situation is incompatible with the responsibility of a ministry,
This is false,
The faithful need guidance,
They need us to stop infantilizing them,
Or lie to them,
And I take full responsibility for it,
These weeks have been difficult, but the balance has returned,
Accumulating the spiritual fatherhood of the
faithful and the education of a son is incompatible,
Where is it written that a priest cannot be in charge of a child?
- The history of the Church attests to this, - Fake,
Father Francis?
Not since the 12th century,
I'm talking about now,
Fathers who become priests following the death of their
wives always do so after an exemption granted by the Holy Father,
And this, to the majority of their children,
In reality, priests have children that they hide,
Sometimes, with the complicity of the Church,
The Church is us,
A fragile human institution,
- Marked by errors, -Simon,
We see what you're trying to do,
You are making your personal case general,
85% of Catholics, practitioners or not, are for a
change in the rules concerning the lives of priests,
- These are polls,
Their reliability is questionable,
Yes,
To refuse to evolve, we withdraw into ourselves,
We form a caste,
We lose the connection with people,
The sacralization of function denies our fundamental needs,
With all the abuses that
this entails: abuse of
power, clericalism,
paternalism and,,, worse in certain cases,
Stop,
Simon, you have a choice,
Either you leave of your own free will with humility and respect,
Either you stay, but in this case, the
only alternative will be the canonical trial,
Under what charge?
Public scandal,
[calm music]
[the bells are ringing]
[together] ♪ Blessed are You, to meet our expectations ♪
♪ Inhabited by the same hope, ♪
♪ Baptized in the same Holy Spirit, ♪
♪ We form your Church, Lord ♪
♪ One body to the glory of the Father, ♪
In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
May the Lord be with you,
[together] And with you too,
Brothers and sisters, I am not without telling
you that Father Simon saw his life change,
He charged me to announce to you,,,
his decision to withdraw
from his ministry,
I think many here wonder about
Father Simon, about his honesty,
on his dedication to the community,
He asked me to read you a letter he sent to you,
[the door slams]
It is preferable
that you hear his words in his own voice,
I was asked to write a farewell note,
An astonishing word, “farewell”,
"Who belongs to God,
"addressed to him,"
I'm not talking to God today, it's up to you,
We are believers,
It’s no coincidence that we define ourselves this way,
But being a believer does not mean no longer doubting
face
to the mystery,
in the quest for truth,
Doubt has its place,
Without guilt,
Certainties are born in fear,
And they lock us into this fear,
Mystery gives rise to hope,
it pushes us to think, to search,,,
to grow,
The Church belongs to you,
It's up to you to shape it,,,
in questioning, in hope,
You made me happy,
But today, I discover the joy of being a father,
and for nothing in the world,
I wouldn't go back,
[soft music]
[Father Amine] GOOD,
Let's get started,
