You also could kill for the humiliations of the world

and of love for God?

God is truth and justice, Celine.

Peace is against justice.

It's our struggle.

But love?

It's our faith,

our aspiration to Him

That is the struggle, Celine.

The men are soldiers.

Why not be a martyr?

It's here.

Your shelter?

Where I am bound.

Hadewijch.

Hadewijch.

It's pretty.

Come on.

Its looks nice here.

I'm with you Nassir.

I'm ready.

Come on.

We have a long way back.

One final tour?

Okay, the last.

Then we go,

we have nothing to do here.

Yes

I will go make the food.

I'll come help you my sister.

In fact, there isn't much to do.

- Ok

- Thank you. It's very kind.

- Can you look for the ticket in my room.

- I will.

Its not there.

How long for the food?

- Three minutes

- Ok.

I'm getting hungry.

You ok?

- Yeah

- Ok.

You seem a little weird, eh?

Do you want to break some eggs?

No no no no no.

What's wrong?

I don't know.

Go on. I'll bring it to the table.

he just said there was a bombing.

You'll see it

So, my son...

On Monday, Mom

I go back to work.

Be better

when it has passed.

Because you are not interested in

doing wrong.

Yes

- Yes

- Good

Anyway, now you look after yourself, okay.

I hope.

Anyway you're not the first

or the last.

Well thats it.

- After all you haven't killed anyone.

- No.

Good.

Celine, don't cry.

Don't cry.

They've killed a little boy.

Have you seen what I told you, have you?

With your eyes, the humiliation.

This is it.

- Want some tea?

- Yes.

Thank you.

I've told him about you.

Do you want anything?

God,

our God,

who has guided me to you.

I am ready.

In the vision of my life and my faults

hiding in the action, close to my sisters and brothers.

God can be wine.

Acting in God and for Him.

In the struggle,

combat.

So that He may live for us all.

I believe there is a light

that guides us,

and in my action,

the weapons

of love, for Him

He chose me

and lit me.

so i will do so.

I am His.

and subject to the mystery of his love

and our union,

who loves me well.

Hadewijch.

Come on young sisters.

We are trapped.

You know where we live...

Someone wants to talk to you.

Love

your power divides us

mine is the word.

You are the light of the day

and my days in the nights.

Why?

Why?

I'm with you

always following you

Why run away from me?

Being further and further away.

you make me love so greatly

but you wont be with a

human creature.
