...

-Lord,

I surrender myself to You.

Door creaking.

I was waiting for you.

-So ?

Ready?

-The entrance examination to the police academy includes a MCQ in criminal matters,

and a case study. I am qualified.

- So sure of yourself. -I apprehend

not failure, but what will happen after it is received.

-We'll celebrate it at my house.

With Tetsuo. -To do what ?

-It's normal

to want to know the boyfriend

of her best friend.

-The what ?

-He isn't?

-I never wondered.

You think that

That's my boyfriend ?

-I do not know.

You see it a lot, you seem in love,

you get closer, that would make sense.

Nico. -Raph.

Astrid. -Captain.

- The victim is a monk from the Benedictine monastery.

There we enter

in the fence, where only are admitted

the monks.

-On nous observe.

To be.

-They see

few women.

-Thank you.

- Where is this body?

Hello.

- Ben, yes.

It is Brother Louis Desforges.

-Agreed.

...

You have seen ? -He is dead.

-Blow carried from the front, by a blade 15cm long

and 5mm wide.

-It's precise, you amaze me.

-We found a candle blade at his feet.

The killer must have

find it here.

-Ca a percé

liver or spleen.

Death should not have

be immediate.

-There is no blood.

Did we wipe it off? -Exact.

On his left sleeve.

The. And depending on the angle,

the victim cleaned it up.

-He would have liked to cover

son assassin ?

Who would do that?

-I have an idea.

-Say.

...

-It looks like "The Last Supper" by Vinci.

12 at the table and one dead.

-And who is Judas?

-Hello.

I am the abbot of the monastery.

Father Damian.

I am available.

We are very affected, you can imagine.

-Thank you Father.

Who found the body?

-Brother Thibaud.

He's a newbie

and open the church.

-The door was

open or closed?

- He opened it.

- He can't talk?

- The door was locked.

-When did he arrive?

-Two months ago.

-Only ?

- He was... How to say?

-He came

from another monastery.

-Good... You will confide

what you have on the victim to Captain Perran.

And my colleague will take

the depositions. Thank you.

-To me ?

-Long, sweet, milk.

-Thank you.

-Did you find it

Things ? -Yes.

Louis Desforges arrived from a monastery in Burkina Faso.

So, in his file...

Born in Lyons in 1968.

He arrived in Burkina in 2007 as a novice.

In 2009 he became a monk and in 2010 a priest.

He arrived in Paris

two months ago.

-And before 2007?

- We have nothing. For the others, we have data.

But for him, nothing.

-It's not okay.

-What is it ?

- I studied the criminal documentation.

Desforges is unknown there.

- He's a monk. -He is

unknown to the whole administration.

His social security number

does not exist.

No Louis Desforges corresponds to the civil status.

- He has a false identity.

- Or it does not exist.

- Secretive, the abbot!

Look what he failed to say.

-Hmm.

liturgical song.

They recite quietly.

...

...

- We're going to sit down.

...

Say there was a crime here a few hours ago

and what they do

Like nothing ever happened.

-These men have a ritualized silent life,

except for the songs.

Whatever the external events.

- Are you a believer? -Nope.

I prefer to doubt, in the absence of proof of the existence of God.

As with investigations, I need clues.

- Don't count on it.

God does not exist, period.

-Nothing proves that it exists.

-There.

-Nor that it does not exist.

Say it doesn't exist

is a belief, like saying it exists.

Bell ringing.

...

- Do you admit having sinned?

-It's yours

to confess.

- Commander Coste. -Herself.

Is lying by omission a sin?

-I do not understand.

-Let's go...

-Because I come from the same Burkinabe monastery as Louis?

-Is it coming back?

Before coming here,

you were for ten years in the same monastery.

Follow me to my confessional.

Desforges does not exist.

Tell us his name.

-I can not.

-My father...

Stop lying.

-Commander, Louis was my friend.

His departure saddens me.

*-Why conceal his name? The Vatican is stopping you?

*-I do not know him.

And neither does the Vatican.

He arrived

in Burkina 12 years ago

with a fake passport, and we didn't know.

-How did you know? -He told me.

- He told you?

And was that enough for you?

-It was purely administrative.

I didn't care to know his marital status.

It was between him and God. -Let's admit.

Do you know anything that could identify him?

-Claire.

-Who is it ?

-His great love.

He talked about it often.

*I only have that from his past.

Just a first name.

-Thank you Father.

You can leave.

- Can a monk have a girlfriend?

-Normally no.

But they are men.

Before becoming monks.

They may have had one or a girlfriend before.

-Agreed.

We should find Claire.

But how to find it with a simple first name?

-Might as well look for a needle in a haystack.

-Needle ? -Claire.

-Ah.

Father Damien would have lied?

-He seems sincere, he was close to the victim.

But he hides

things.

Yes, Fournier.

What is it ?

We arrive. Yes right now.

-Looks like

a foreseeable contingency.

I like.

-What's this ?

We hadn't seen. -Scars

synoviales traversantes.

Between the carpal bones and the radius.

And there, lesions

between the 2nd

and the 3rd metatarsus.

-Stigmata, which were hidden

through the sleeves. During the crucifixion,

the nails did not pass through the hands, which cannot

support the weight of the body, but the wrists.

-One can think

that this man was tortured.

- Or it's about self-harm.

There are crazy people.

-Or else, it's a miracle.

- Enough, Fournier.

-It exists

hysterical stigmata.

-I saw.

But in these cases, there is at most one lesion.

There, it went through.

- When is it from?

-According to Fournier, it's between one and three months.

He already had

well healed.

Arthur, the Vatican answered?

Do they have any info?

-There is a folder,

but for procedure

disciplinary.

Excluded from the Burkinabé monastery, he was in Paris during the investigation.

-On what ?

- They didn't say.

-Really ? -Internal procedure,

not criminal, they have the right.

- They're pissing us off.

Arthur, insist.

Go through the Elysée if necessary.

And you, get information in Niagassi.

-Where are you going ?

you want to get out

the timber wolf.

-Better, tame it.

-Lt Enguien, crime squad.

Alarm.

...

-Yes.

*-Hello, Astrid.

-Bonjour, Tetsuo Tanaka.

-I wanted to know...

At last...

Are you busy tonight?

*-I'm not.

On Mondays, I have dinner at Raphaëlle's. On Wednesdays, I have a social workshop.

Apart from this,

I'm at home revising the entrance exam

*at the police academy.

Hmm...

And you, are you busy tonight?

-No more. *-It's necessary.

Boredom is bad.

-Ah.

-Have a good evening.

*Goodbye.

- Goodbye, Astrid.

-Thank you.

-Other questions ? -Nope.

I want to discuss.

I do believe that Louis was your friend.

But stop hiding things from me.

-Agreed.

But not here.

Thank you.

-Good...

Father Damien, we don't get

no information.

What is the Church hiding?

-A saint.

-Pardon ?

-Louis...

He saw Him. -Who ?

-His.

- He had visions?

-Let's say apparitions. Christ was speaking to him.

- Okay, and...

And these apparitions were genuine?

-I think.

Unlike the Vatican.

In Africa, a survey

of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith

concluded to their non-authenticity.

He was expelled from the monastery

by the curia. -You didn't believe it?

- They were already wrong.

I witnessed one of the apparitions.

He was transfigured.

- Did he have any enemies?

-15 days ago,

an owl was nailed

on his cell door.

someone came in

to let him know that the threat had followed him

from Africa.

-Stigmata.

They crucified him?

We crucified Louis.

Fanatics accusing him of being a heretic.

On boards!

And we still have no information from our colleagues in Burkina Faso.

-It's logic.

-Why ?

- File closed without investigation.

-Eh ? But what file?

- The file sent by my Burkinabe counterpart.

The report of the testimony of a doctor from Niagassi,

called to the monastery.

He thought it was the doing of the Ira Dei group,

"Wrath of God".

-Do you speak Latin?

-Absolutely not.

But they led

many actions in France.

Vandalism on works of art.

Assault on spectators.

Attack on abortion centers, and many other issues.

-We nailed the owl

during an office, where all the monks were.

Someone

opened the door.

We're going to interrogate them all.

-Raphaelle, something worries me.

Could you enlighten me?

-I'm listening to you.

-Tetsuo did a strange thing.

-What do you mean ?

-A call.

To ask me if I was busy tonight.

I told him no.

And I asked him

if he was, he told me no.

Here is.

What is the purpose of the exchange?

-Invite you to dinner.

-Invite me to dinner... What for?

-To formalize your relationship.

And become your boyfriend.

-Agreed. So...

Tetsuo asks me if I'm busy,

because he wants to invite me to dinner,

to become my boyfriend.

I will not arrive there.

Too complicated.

-Do not. -Yup.

I do not understand anything.

...

-Hello.

-Welcome.

-I didn't know Brother Louis well, he was quite secretive.

-He ate little, as if the Eucharist was enough for him.

-He was stealing food.

He was playing hungry.

It was cinema.

-He spoke little of himself.

But when he spoke,

my heart was jumping.

Christ was speaking.

-A false devotee is worse than a disbeliever.

-And should be punished?

-He's punished.

The worst punishment: hell.

To be kept out of the sight of God.

But brother Louis

did not wait for death

to lose his soul.

I have seen it, with my eyes seen,

enter the monastery with...

the father of lies.

-Alzheimer or not,

he takes himself for the armed arm of God.

-As for Brother Simon, he seems mixed on Brother Louis.

And Thibaud was able to help him

to become a martyr.

- All are suspects.

-The info about Louis as "Saint of Niagassi" was widespread

on Catholic blogs.

On that of Ira Dei, there are salty messages.

-Call for punishment?

-He is called a mystifier, a liar, a false devotee.

Signed messages

from Servus and sent from the monastery's IP address.

-The monks surf.

- Many study.

Some teach.

-Others write.

Who logged in at 11:32 a.m.?

- Is it an arrest?

-Not yet.

But it doesn't smell good.

Goodbye.

- I just opened the door.

-To those who killed Brother Louis?

-No, to those who nailed the owl,

A week ago.

I was upset. -You support

Wrath of the Gods?

-Not initially. I respected Louis.

I believed in his holiness.

-Cause of your doubts?

-A woman.

-A woman ? -I followed him

to a building, from which he came out...

in the arm of a woman.

In fact of saint,

he was cheating.

-Where it was ?

At this address lives a Claire Moreau.

Maybe the one Louis told you about.

-Claire is there? - No, according to his companion,

she disappeared.

-What can I do?

-You were close to Louis.

It can be useful.

You will follow everything from here.

If something makes you say it's this Claire,

tell the captain.

Agreed ? -Good.

-Let's go.

-Claire is your companion.

-Yes. Did something happen to him?

-Why ? -She disappeared

For three days, I've been worrying.

*-Louis Desforges, you know?

- Uh, no, Desforges, that means nothing to me.

I only know a Louis Lherbier,

her ex, who came

with us 15 days ago.

It turned her around.

-What did he say ?

-I don't know, but...

she slapped him.

The guy disappears

for 15 years and returns, imagine the circus.

*I had to fire him.

*He resisted, we fought.

Claire was scared.

She told me it was her ex.

And... that he beat her.

-Lherbier became Desforges.

-100% sure? -At 95%.

Lherbier disappeared when Brother Louis appeared.

He travelled

with his passport,

then disappeared to become Desforges.

-His companion, Claire Moreau,

has disappeared.

The day he saw her.

- We are looking for her.

-He's implicated ?

-He was violent.

Monk or not, the victim becomes suspect in this disappearance.

-He could have...

sequester her.

-Alive?

- Astrid? -To be.

Lherbier is cited several times as a perpetrator of violence.

No criminal record.

-Say. -"July 25, 2002.

"Violence.

"March 16, 2003, brawl." And other business.

-And nothing

on Claire?

A complaint?

-Nothing.

Raphaëlle...

Father Damien said

that Brother Louis loved Claire.

-Yes. -How

can someone brutalize a person he loves?

-He can not.

-Ah.

-Only a jerk

would say that if

evoking passionate love,

or jealousy.

Bullshit!

-Ok thank you.

-He who beats his wife does not love her.

It's not love. -Lherbier has disappeared

15 years ago, the files were not all digitized.

You have to know what to look for

so as not to risk missing any information.

Or like looking for a needle in a haystack.

-Hello, Tetsuo. -Hello.

I need advice.

-Tell me.

-It's about Astrid.

-No kidding ?

-I searched diligently.

Without understanding...

precisely.

What is a boyfriend? -The one with whom

we're together. -Good.

And a pair? -It's a relationship

privileged to two.

-Specify, because our relationship is like that.

Are we a couple? -Nope.

-Ah.

-There is a carnal dimension.

-Carnal? -Yes.

We sleep together.

-You talked about men you slept with

without being in a relationship.

-Yes. -Yes.

- Yeah, it's true.

-William and Berezine 28

are in a relationship without sleeping together.

- Shit, you're right.

What is it then ?

-I'm doing it wrong.

But I'm not very comfortable.

- Neither did Astrid.

-How to make him understand ?

- It's simple, you have to tell him.

In romantic relationships, excuse me, but the neurotypical

do everything

not to say what they have to say.

They redouble their imagination

to beat around the bush, all in innuendo.

A catalog of figures of speech.

Example: "I'm not bad with you."

It's an understatement.

"To hug"

to talk about sex,

euphemism.

And what about:

"What are you doing tonight ?"

To avoid saying, "I want to spend the evening

"with you."

-This, yes. -There.

It is a metonymy.

You assume that the other will understand what is not said.

A: It's exhausting.

And two: in front of us, it doesn't work.

What you want

tell Astrid,

tell him.

-If you get lost, go back to basics.

- Your diagram is rough. -Oh?

- Yes, elusive.

-Not at all. -Yes.

-The common point,

or the tipping point,

it's the first kiss.

-The kiss.

With the lips.

-That's wonderful.

-The lips.

The most sensitive organ

with over a million nerves.

Raphaëlle...

Physical contact is very difficult for me.

Already, my shoulder...

So, lips, I'm not sure I can.

So...

Tetsuo Tanaka

won't be my boyfriend.

- But no, no.

You have to talk to him about it.

A couple is built together.

You see ?

It's simple.

- You should have seen it.

It was amazing.

He was disgusted. -Hello.

- Six months that he wants the pecho and the girl has dried him up.

Health.

She bluntly told him, "You're not my type of guy."

He arrived sure of himself, well dressed, like that.

And there, "no"!

'Cause she's a 9-10

while he is a 4-5.

It does not play in the same court.

-Young people of his age have a calorie requirement

very high. -I know where Claire is.

She may still be there.

- How could he have hidden it?

-I thought about what Brother Simon said.

He stole food from the kitchen.

And that's not all.

Brother Gérard, do you recognize her?

-The demon.

I saw it.

I told you so.

Louis entered with the Demon.

-There.

The demon.

-The granary.

Where is he ?

-He was sentenced, I don't know where the entrance is.

- Me, yes.

It's here, there.

- A condemned door.

-The floor has

some scratches.

Creaking of the door.

Here is.

The attic.

-Stay there, I'm going.

Bell ringing.

...

Shit.

- Louis is therefore dead.

He didn't come anymore.

I tried to get out, the door was blocked.

- You are in shock.

You had lost

awareness.

It's Louis

who hit you?

-No way.

He is my companion

who did this to me.

-Louis was your ex?

-At the time, I was a nurse

in St-François d'Assise, in the emergency room.

Louis arrived

wounded, he had fought.

He was flayed.

I liked him.

- Wasn't he violent?

-He was angry, but not with me.

He was protecting me.

I felt good with him.

When Vincent freaked out,

I came here. -"Freak out" ?

-Louis has landed

8 days ago.

I started by slapping him.

He reappeared after 15 years of absence.

Imagine.

Then we met again.

-Have you got...

-Down again ?

-Ah !

Non.

He had changed.

- He was a monk.

-And the man I had loved.

He offered me

this half heart.

He had the other half.

It was corny, but it was our thing.

-Vincent must not have liked it.

- He went crazy.

I ran away, and I came to see Louis.

He told me to hide here

waiting to fix this.

-Claire, it's over, we'll take care of you.

...

So ?

Information about Lherbier? -Nope.

No information on Lherbier.

But on Claire Moreau.

I was able to set the object

of research when she mentioned their meeting,

when she was an ER.

The file concerns the homicide of Fabrice Bernard,

head of division.

On January 7, 2006, struck,

he dies as a result of a head trauma.

A murder

not elucidated.

No culprit identified.

-Claire is quoted?

-Yes.

As a witness,

also working in the emergency room.

-Link with Lherbier? -Hmm !

This is what Fabrice Bernard was holding,

as if torn from the aggressor.

-Claire's pendant. -Hmm.

It's the other half.

That of Lherbier.

which is not mentioned.

But Lherbier is guilty of this murder.

Lherbier killed Bernard.

-Yes.

It's kind of the same.

-Hmm.

Found near a dead person.

- What connection with me?

-Hmm...

Mrs Moreau,

lying is useless, Lherbier is dead.

Cooperate with the investigation

If you want

we find the killer.

-I lost him twice.

-Ah.

-Why kill Fabrice?

-Fabrice was special.

His hands on the ass,

it was still going.

- He abused you?

-I talked to Louis about it.

I felt so dirty.

He became crazy.

He didn't want to kill him.

But make him pay.

-Ensuite ?

-Fabrice died the next day.

You want to know ?

-Yes.

- I thanked Louis.

This bastard could well die.

But then,

Louis has changed.

I told him we wouldn't suspect him.

Nobody knew about the rape.

And no one knew Louis.

Ni mobile ni lien

with the victim.

-That wasn't the problem.

- His crime gnawed at him.

He slept more.

One day he left.

-Lherbier killed the department head?

- Fabrice Bernard.

-Astrid left Claire

to find the murder committed by Lherbier.

-Cheer. -Thank you.

Attention.

I defined

the object of the research

to find the info.

Otherwise, we risk

not to see her.

-We would have killed Lherbier to take revenge for this crime?

-May be.

Fabrice Bernard had few family, just one brother.

Arthur must

interrogate him. -Good.

Alarm. -Take.

Yes Arthur.

Shit, I'm coming.

-We knocked, he fled.

-Shit ! -The monastery called.

He landed there.

-Who is there ? -All the monks.

- Is he armed? - Gasoline.

I said you were going.

-Good game.

- I will not go alone.

Not alone.

Stop !

Don't move or I'll set it on fire.

-Look.

I lay down my weapon.

Joseph...

I want to help you.

-Help me ?

It was necessary, 15 years ago.

My brother's killer has been free for 15 years.

What did you do?

-Tell me. -The other,

the monk, asked me to join him here on Sunday evening.

To tell me about Fabrice.

I was 13 years old.

You know how that screwed me up? -Yes.

- No, you don't know.

-If I know. -Nope.

When he denounced...

I freaked out.

He asked me for forgiveness, I didn't care.

I've been waiting for this for 15 years.

I took the 1st object found.

I avenged my brother.

I have nothing to lose.

Burn everyone!

-You have everything to lose.

If you go,

the jury will understand.

But killing 12 innocent people...

- They are not innocent, they stashed it.

He killed my brother

and did not pay!

- This man did not run away from his crime.

-He hid in a monastery,

without accepting his crime. -But no.

Here he had to face it.

Our demons here

we are facing them.

Facing yourself.

-That's what he told me when I planted him.

He forgave me.

He told me to run away.

He wiped the blade to erase

my fingerprints.

Who do this ?

Who do this ?

He should have

be angry.

He sobs.

...

-There were humiliations.

Then violence.

I was hoping he would change, but no.

-Thank you for your help.

-Before becoming a monk,

I was a chaplain in the army, in the Sahel.

I've seen worse.

Memento mori.

-I skipped Latin.

- "Remember that you are going to die." It was written in the monasteries,

to call back

the transience of life.

-That's happy !

-Louis chose a path of redemption.

But the Lord

sent him to Paris.

-The Lord, fate.

It doesn't suit me.

I have faith in people.

And I try, at my level,

to make their lives easier.

- Beautiful vocation.

- I filed against Vincent.

- I will follow your file.

-Thank you.

-Claire,

Father Damian.

Father Damien, Claire.

You have things to tell each other.

...

-20mn instead of 2h?

Why are you giving up so quickly?

-I don't give up, I return my... my copies.

Goodbye.

...

-Nico... -It was hot.

- Yes, but it ended well.

-Be careful.

You are not invincible. -How are you. Listen...

-Health.

To home,

he let me in. -You are ?

-It's Emma.

-But still ?

-It's my sister. -Raph.

Nico spoke to me

of you. Let's go ?

-We will see that tomorrow.

Health.

- Say... - Not now.

-Physical contact

is difficult for me.

-I understand.

- A kiss is excluded.

-Agreed.

- No boyfriend?

-Yes, of course.

-Why ?

-I did not choose what I feel

for you.

But already, in Japan,

I was shy.

I don't know how to express myself.

Arrived in France, it got worse.

Up to

our meeting.

With you I am...

myself.

-Me too.

With you, I am myself, Tetsuo Tanaka.

We won't be a couple.

Because we won't kiss.

-Yes. But if.

We will be a couple.

Because... I won't kiss anyone else.

-Agreed.

Tetsuo.

-Why in the world

do I love you like I do,

baby ?

When you told me over and over...

Sure enough, girl, that you wouldn't be true.

I can't stop myself

from singing this same old song.
