Synopsis
Hadewijch (Julie Sokolowski), a young novice Sister, is a fanatic Christian making herself suffer by fasting and standing in the winter rain. The Mother Superior (Brigitte Mayeux-Clergot) expels her deeming her blind faith dangerous. She becomes Céline again, daughter of a Parisian diplomat. She meets a young man named Yassine (played by Yassine Salim), but tells him that she cannot fall in love with him because she is in love with Jesus; she is still a virgin and planning to stay that way.Comments

« Le gars » (comme l'appelle le générique) campe seul aux abords d'un village, dans un paysage de dunes et de marécages. Il ne semble avoir qu'une amie, « la fille », une jeune fille d'une ferme avoisinante, douce et sobrement habillée en « gothique ». Celle-ci se fait abuser sexuellement par son beau-père (croit-on comprendre), et lui demande protection. Au début du film, il tue ce beau-père de sang froid. Mystique qui prie au milieu de la nature, cet ermite est aussi exorciste : une mère le sollicite pour guérir sa fille qui semble habitée par le démon.

The time span covered by the film is 1506–1526: from Luther's completion of his novitiate in the Order of Eremites of St. Augustine in Erfurt to a time just after the birth of his first son Hans (b. June 7, 1526). It is narrated by Julian Glover, who portrays a young knight in the tradition of Ulrich von Hutten and Franz von Sickingen. He takes Luther to task for failing to complete his "revolution" by supporting the peasants in their uprising: "You could have done it, Martin." Luther is confronted in the course of the film six other times, giving him the opportunity to defend himself in his own words. The metaphor of constipation and flatulence is employed to indicate Luther's progression from insecurity to confidence in life.
