as we forgive those

who trespass against us.

Very interesting.

- Indeed. And very important.

It's the hardest line

in the whole prayer.

He'll only forgive us our trespasses

if we forgive those

who trespass against us.

We have to forgive the people

who get on our nerves, our enemies.

Forgive them! Imagine!

But the Lord has to forgive you too,

and I'm sure

you get on his nerves a lot.

But he forgives you anyway.

- I've never committed a serious crime.

I haven't. I'm a normal citizen.

Bless the room his mother died in,

and be her intercessor in the hereafter.

Thank you, Mother of God.

Don't you want to bless

the Wandering Madonna too?

She doesn't need to be blessed.

She blesses you.

- I see.

I'll leave her here.

Two weeks.

- Yes, and then I'll pick her up.

Who is annoying you?

Tell me who it is.

Tell me who's bothering you

and I'll do what has to be done.

I'm going to feed you, sweetie.

Just be patient.

Have a little patience...

Just a second, sweetie.

Don't get mad.

What are you doing?

I feed her.

- Are you crazy? That's our food.

Are you crazy? Really!

- She has to eat too!

My cat!

- But not our food.

She gets enough to eat.

- Poor thing hungry.

That's unhygienic.

Get her off there!

Why? She eats just like people!

The cat stays in the basement.

- Please!

Cats better than people!

- That's disgusting!

Hey, hey.

- Look.

Then go!

I came here with hope.

That it's better here.

But my wife treats me just like...

like waitress on the street.

Hate. Hate toward foreigners.

At home too.

It's no good. It can't work.

I can read your thoughts.

Your ideology is wrong ideology!

Hate creates hate!

I came here. I am so nice.

And full of love.

And hope for a new life.

But you not want to change.

Forgive him.

He knows not what he does.

Lord, I belong to you

My life is yours too

That I might be saved

and sing your praise

You bestowed it on me

Like a father you lead me

Along life's paths

Toward my destiny

Lord, I belong to you...

What's wrong with you?

I told you I want to watch TV.

But it's not good for you.

- You say this is bad and that is bad.

Is it your business?

What do you want me to do?

You can read a book.

Or listen to the radio. Radio Maria.

- You treat me like a child.

Don't I know what I want?

If I want to watch TV,

you say I should read.

And when I read a book,

you tell me to watch TV.

No, I would never say that.

- Listen to me.

If I want something, then let me do it

and don't annoy me.

Do you understand?

It's not good for you to do bad things.

- It's none of your business.

And I have to listen to it too.

When you watch these bad things,

I can hear them in the kitchen.

You...

I'm warning you.

If I say I want the TV,

that means I want the TV.

Do you understand?

I don't want sinful things

going on in this house!

Do you understand?

- Who said it's a sin?

I don't know what you think

or where you go every day.

What do you think? I don't know.

What's going on with you?

You weren't like this two years ago.

- I know what you watch.

You always watch very bad programs.

- So, you're watching me?

Spying on me?

Can you please bring the TV, or what?

And you always get angry

when you watch TV.

You get even more aggressive.

- Please, you think you're better.

I'm so polite to you.

Don't make me be rude.

I said don't annoy me!

I want to watch TV.

Let me watch in peace!

You weren't this way before.

What kind of religion is this?

Thank you.

Be careful!

I'm not hurting you.

- No... I can feel...

You want to hurt me.

Sometimes you're like a little child.

No, I'm not little child.

Women say men are children,

but it's not true.

Turn this way.

Darling.

You know I'm a cripple now, right?

Do you realize that or not?

It hurts me and I know it hurts you too.

You know how I was in bed, yes?

Look, Nabil...

- You know, right?

But now my hands are useless.

I can't do anything now.

I thank God you had the accident.

Do you understand?

There's a reason for everything.

It gave me back my faith.

And you have to understand that.

But it also hurts me that I can't...

- I know that it hurts you.

I can't satisfy you properly.

I have to say that.

Look, Nabil, try to understand

the deeper meaning of all this.

Then you'll feel better.

You know?

- Yes.

There's a reason for accidents.

It's a test.

You have to think about why it happened.

What kind of life did you lead?

You drank.

And went out all the time.

I'm happy.

- That wasn't a good life.

You didn't realize it until it was gone.

I'm still happy to be with you.

I just wish

you had a little time for me.

Just a little, I know...

I want you to go out too.

That's okay.

You'd be bored if you had to

look at me all day, I know.

I have to work.

How else can we pay the bills?

Yes, I know. That's okay.

I just wanted to tell you

what my conscience says.

It hurts. I know.

Really hurts.

What hurts?

- I just told you!

Because I am sick.

- But don't let that hurt you.

I'm happy it's this way.

Don't suffer because of that.

I'm just sad

that it makes you suffer.

That you still

don't understand the meaning.

That makes me sad.

Not that you are paraplegic.

It's a gift from God, you know.

Dear listeners of Radio Maria,

let us now say the Lord's prayer

together with

our program director Andreas Schatzle.

In the name of the Father,

the Son, and the Holy Spirit...

Breakfast alone?

No answer.

You treat me like a dog.

Why you not want

to eat breakfast with me?

Why aren't you ever satisfied?

I do everything for you.

- Not everything.

I do it because you're sick.

I'm happy to do it.

But you're never satisfied.

No, not always.

Others would be happy

to have what you have.

Really?

- And have everything done for them.

I give you everything you need.

- Like washing my clothes and that?

You're never thankful.

- That is your duty!

You are my wife.

You should know that.

In all religions you have to do that!

I'm happy to do it.

- Oh?

There are other things

you have to do too.

They are your duty too.

You refuse to understand.

There is something called feelings.

Feelings. You are my wife.

- I can never do anything right.

You can do it right

if you have feelings.

But if you don't have any,

there's nothing I can do either.

It's something you don't have.

To Allah, almighty God,

I will pray

the four Rakh'a prayers.

Allah is great.

In the name of Allah,

the sublime, the merciful.

Allah, God of all words,

you shall be praised.

You, the sublime, the merciful.

Master on the day of judgment.

Thee alone we serve,

thee alone we ask for mercy.

Lead us on the path of righteousness,

the path of the merciful,

which will not incur your wrath

nor lead us astray.

You.

You!

You are cheating on me.

Is it true?

- Nabil, you're in the way.

Go back to the living room.

You're lying to me.

- We can talk later.

Go back in there

and let me wash up.
