I know it's not easy.

But we still have to take the

easiest path.

Yes.

I try not to think about it.

But we did not start the hand.

Who were you with tonight?

With my brother's daughter.

She's like my daughter.

Every time I think it'll be

the last time.

But as soon as it's over...

disgust,

then it'll be even worse.

And everything is repeated.

What is the source of your fear?

Perhaps the fear of

that we'll be revealed.

When I call,

she turns her head.

So her looking at me... It can be said

that alone gives me the justification.

It all began when I saw

her legs so slim.

Before she was, for me

just a girl.

But when I saw her curves...

Earlier I didn't think about it.

She was a nobody.

But now...

Now it can not be a nobody.

If it serves as a

entertainment, uniteete said.

Then she will become a nobody.

Think about how much harm

will be caused.

And often you have sinned

with his niece?

Yes.

Often. Very often.

Sometimes several times a day.

Shut up?

I've shocked you?

You have come to confess.

My answers have no significance.

Here we talk about your sins.

Do you find this

confession brings joy?

Can you recognize the greater sin?

And what would it be greater than this?

Do I know the size of sin?

Every sinner has its limits.

God - I assure you, condemns

every sin.

And you, my father,

evil does not scare you?

Satan has no power over you?

Satan has power over me

as much as he allows.

Everything is so simple?

Yes.

Everything is so simple.

MONAH..

I Prevod. Tiger Ajdi

In December of 1595

the night of St.. Ambrose,

front gate of the monastery

near Madrid,

I found the baby.

The only thing that differentiated him

from other children was a mark,

in the shape of a hand on

his shoulder.

Some of the brothers, the truest,

considered it a sign of the devil.

But Miguel's brother, said that twas

God's gift to the child.

The brothers have decided that they'll

bringt it up themselves.

I named it Ambrose.

Under the influence of brothers,

Ambrose has already at an early...

...age accquired knowledge of science,

writing and drawing.

He has a lot of ambition.

With 18 years he entered into

the brotherhood.

To all brothers, Ambrose became

an example of diligence and faith.

Everyone respects him,

but, they are envious of him.

His deep faith, his talent to

convince people of the confessional;

became the basis of his

reputation.

We're late.

Jel's true that he called

God's man?

Yes. He sins so I resolved, as all

the other monks in the region together.

Father, all waiting in the church

only him.

Do not worry, I will soon to come.

Dear Sir,

obraam you with a request

give me strength

to continue the mission,

granted by me.

Obraam you on behalf of

Virgin Mary,

Mother of God.

If God sees that I do not want your

direct the soul into the right side,

Let me take away my voice

and my life.

And please,

When I talk,

Bless my tongue,

and hearts of those who listen to me,

to my language spoken to all hearts,

and lit the flame of truth in them.

Virgin Mary,

Almighty Queen,

Hear my voice,

give strength to my words,

and give power to my voice.

No such sin

for which no one should

pray for forgiveness.

Repentance is the only way of sinners.

One movement and pirouette.

Hits on the hawthorn tree.

Hold on one of the twigs.

This is your life, twigs,

he asks of you only words.

Evil is far, distant,

distant, big stumbling block,

and more not be able to

hold the twigs.

Yes, he is quick and cunning.

Yes, he is dangerous.

But only for those

with weaknesses,

given place in his heart.

I do not think so.

Give your soul to the Lord!

Listen to his call when

you hear the story!

Go back.

Come back to me!

Not watching for anything,

connect to my faith.

And then I'll give you your

blessing and strength,

and heaven.

So, what do you think?

He speaks the truth.

With so vivid a voice,

I have the impression that I

look into your heart.

I feel dizzy.

Aunt...

I feel sick.

Please, let us

help you.

Thank you, sir.

Let me

introduce myself.

I'm Lorenzo Charm.

You are from the

Milinovih family?

Yes.

And you?

With whom I have the honor to meet?

My name is Eleanela Aljfo.

And this is my sestriina,

Antonia.

I can hardly wait to see Mom

and tell her everything we saw.

Aunt, let's go home.

Already going?

Yes. My mom is sick

and we can't leave her alone too long.

Once again you

thank you, sir.

I hope that we will soon

see you again. - The same, sir.

Ambrose, my son.

Your speech today,

Your words,

gave me strength

that we need.

Are you ill?

My life force is

slowly abandoning me.

You are just sick.

Soon everything will be fine.

Everything is already in order,

Ambrose.

Even if it hurts,

keep it in.

My father,

already sometimes dreaming

the same dream.

Will you tell me when it happens?

It all happens during the service.

I am on the roof of the church.

I highly doubt.

Just what happened

major accidents?,

I do not know how to

deal with it.

I hear the eagle's whistle.

A cry so loud and forboding.

Approaching the edge of the roof.

A virginal girl

who prays to the sun.

I approach her.

She does not turn round.

I do not see her face,

but I know that we know.

I extend my hand,

but I can not get hold of her.

I can not.

It may be that you are dreaming

of the Holy Virgin.

It is at the same time next to you

and unattainable.

But I think you all I understand.

And my explanation

you will not convince.

Your mind is much sharper

than mine.

You yourself have to know the

essence of a dream and its sign.

My name is Manolo Estefas.

We are from Burgois.

My companion, Valerio, would like

to stay in your holy place.

The disease has destroyed his home

and parents.

He survived, whether by

luck or a curse.

He has no lips, no nose,

and his mouth is covered with wounds.

He was forced to wear

this mask,

to hide his face from

other people's gaze.

He can remove it only

in the dark,

to eat, and lay down to sleep.

Are those your words and wishes,

or her?

My.

I want to hide from the world.

And to get closer to God.

Its leaves me unaffected and

indifferent to his bitter fate.

But our duties are prayer

and repentance.

His condition physically

Disallows him.

In doing so, he can sleep

only if the person is too.

He can not eat with

us at the table,

and is not privee to our policies.

I think that it is not

truly among us.

You're right, brother Diego.

But we're going to receive him.

Do you know why?

Much of our brothers are from

good and well-known families.

It is not his case.

And it scares you.

But, instead, to be tried

because they are different from us,

we have to accept it

with joy.

His plight serves

as a lesson to us all.

A little steep staircase,

but no one here will not bother you.

You will not be afraid

I am to be here?

No.

Jel and a lot of pain?

Bandages soothe my pain.

Please Tell me

a brother Ambrose.
