[intro background music]

[church music]

In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit,
Amen.

In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit,
Amen.

[Elizabeth] In the name of the Father and the Son,
and the Holy Spirit, amen.

In the name of the Father and the Son...

In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit,
Amen.

Yura?

So... who is my mother?

Didn't you ask papa?

He said she left us.

- [Elizabeth] Why don't you believe him?
- [Yura] I always trust my father,

I believe him as in the Lord, but ...

- [Elizabeth] What?
- He's like...

doesn't want to tell me something.

Why did she leave?

Yur, if you know less, you sleep better.

Better go serve an afternoon snack to the bell ringer.

Dad teaches me to think.

[Elizabeth] So what? He taught me too.

[music fades]

Is it true?

Mother of God... No...

Mother of God - mother of Christ,

her father is Saint Akim,
and mother is Saint Anna.

[Yura] It turns out that she is the grandmother of Jesus,
and his father is the Lord God,

but he also has… Now.

Why did your dad teach you and not your father?

Who is he? Who are my grandparents?

Are there four of them too?
Did mom's parents die too?

- And further…
- [Elizabeth] Georgi!

Go to your father.

He is your teacher, ask him.

But you're her sister
if she ran away, you should know.

[tense music]

She was beautiful.

Apparently, she went crazy.
I won't say anything else, go.

[Elizabeth, displeased] Yur!

Look, do not stumble.

My father and I believe in you, we dream,

so that you would choose our path,
so that you would by will of God.

So that you would by will of God

[music cuts off]

[screaming seagulls]

[muffled pop music playing]

Ears hurt from the sound.

And a blessing?

[plays the song "Ring"
group "Zventa Sventana"]

[music fades]

Yur! Can I drop you home?

- Oh, hello, Uncle Vit'.
- All right, little one.

Thank you. And can I lead?

Can? Hey!

[music continues]

[music fades]

[Vitya laughs]

[Yura] There are bumps, well, bumps!

- [Vitya] Yes...
- I can.

You can, you can. Well, you are Schumacher.

What is this?

Who is this. Racer!

Ah. I am a racer.

Rarely you began to appear, Uncle Vit'.

Yes, I work in the city now.
At least they pay for it.

[Yura] Ah.

[engine noise]

So what is it?

- Good, boys. Where are you going?
- Well, we are from the monastery.

- Hello.
- Hello.

- From the male one?
- Yeah.

Did the girl come to you?

Oh, she came. Just about a week ago.

You know...

- White girl?
- What do you want?

Well, just... I can't reach her by phone.

- You go, and I follow you.
- No, we'll go.

- Come on, speed up, Yur.
- Sorry.

[engine start sounds]

[Vitya] Eh, what are you doing?

You were told: we are from the monastery.
What, you don't understand?

[Vitya] I'm telling you, we are from the male one,
you are not looking in the right place.

- We don't have anyone.
- Shut your mouth, you hear!

I'm an from anti-drug agency,
Colonel Egofiy.

Egofiy, what kind of drugs?

We are in the monastery
we have prayers, not drugs.

Where is she, boy? Well?

So, I wanted to say, that a mother
was caming to us about a week ago.

- Our mother.
- Mother!

- Yes.
- You, f*ck, and also from the monastery!

Well! Oh well!

- [Vitya] Hey!
- What are you, I...

Turn around.

- Move! Forward!
- What are you doing, huh?!

[Vitya] This is the priest's son.

[inaudible]

[man] Come on, come on, come on.

[tense music]

- What are you?
- No.

Just tell me where she is, that's all.

[Vitya] He didn't even try cigarettes.

[Vitya] What are you doing?!

- Quiet, quiet.
- In the car, b*tches!

- We'll figure it out in the department.
- Quiet, quiet.

His father is the head priest
here in the area. Understood?

He won't just forgive it to you. Heard?

[Vitya] You just look at him.

This is a sacred cow
you can't touch him at all.

- You are looking at the wrong place
- [Yura sobs]

[music cuts off]

Take it.

What did you do, huh?

Move. Come on, come on, come on.

Come on, come on.

[engine start sounds]

No, no, Yur. Right here.

- They…
- Here, come on, come on.

[Yura] ...to You, Holy Mother of God,

representative, no other good
Comforter, only to You.

Only to You, O Mother of God.

Thank You Lord.

Lord, thank you.

Don't you want to thank me?

Is it always so scary out there?

It's not scary yet.

Why did you save her?

I don't like cops.

Well, she is ours. Yes, Yurka?

Will we give our beauty to noone?

[priest] "Only obedience and labor

free the soul from demons
temptations and temptations.

Work tirelessly
until you reap the fruit of the world,

chastity and purity.

- The human soul…
- I also work tirelessly

- but I can never reap the fruit.
- [priest] “… overgrown with weeds.

Until we pull the weeds out…”

Now you are despising me and condemning me.

And this is pride. Do you even listen to your grandfather?

- Christ is Risen.
- [all] Truly Risen.

- Christ is Risen.
- [all] Truly Risen.

[sing the Cherubic Hymn]

We don't have enough people in the barn.

Panteleimon, get up.

[continue to sing]

[Elizaveta] Can you go to Voskresenskoye?

Well, why did you depict all
Egyptian executions?

[Elizabeth] Are you feeling bad again?

Again you want to make someone else suffer
instead of yourself?

I will go. I will go.

- [Elizabeth] Outrageous!
- [singing cut off]

I'm so cruel! Do I torment you, sick one?

The Lord does not give more strength than to Christ

Let me go instead of Panteleimoni.

I don't show off.

That is, not because I'm so good,

she has a stomach ache.

- Mother Elizabeth, Panteleimon, she ...
- If you want -- go.

Only then do not whine like that one
who you are protecting.

[whispers] Thank you.

If you love those who love you,
then what is your gratitude for that?

For even sinners love those who love them.

That's for me?

Excuse me, please,
can you slow down again?

In response, anyone can love.

And you try to love to do good for no reason.

Good advice.

Thank you mother.

[energetic music]

Is there no telly anywhere?

I would watch a good movie
I haven't watched it for a week.

[plays the song "Husband is not at home"
group "Zventa Svetana"]

[Masha] Patience and obedience, girls?
I'm starting to understand this topic.

You forgive
that I don't speak your way.

But no one seems to be punished here.

[mooing cows]

Damn. At least freedom!

[music cuts off]

Will they send it here tomorrow at least?

No, no, it's a hard obedience
You can't do it twice in a row.

Shift here.

"Shift" - I say, as in the children's camp.

- Martha, huh?
- Yeah.

- Where did you live in Moscow, Martha?
- Strogino.

Well, did you walk on the Patricks?
Probably ate sushi, poke, crab.

[Masha]
And then something changed and you decided:

well, to hell with it, God forgive me,
I will go to the monastery.

No, we're all here for a reason.

I suffered from love.
Four guys dumped me in a year.

And my husband lost all his money in the casino ...

over this internet.

He took everything from me.

I just found peace here. b*stard.

Well, someone goes to God.

And someone so disappointed in life,

that he doesn't believe in himself. Differently.

I saw a picture in the children's Bible -

Christ is knocking on the door.

- I just felt: this is for me.
- Exactly.

Clear.

And there are those among you who
bandits are chasing around,

because they poured in ecstasy to
the wife of an oligarch and seduced?

- You, for example?
- What?

Joke. I'm joking.

There are no such people here.

I got lost myself. I am looking for the meaning of life.

The principle of perpendicularity of planes?

If one of the planes
contains a direct

perpendicular to another plane
planes are perpendicular.

Well done. Do you remember the volume of the pyramid?

Eh, yes, a third of the multiplication
of the groun area

by the height.

- Well, maybe arithmetic?
- 317 cubed.

Ah… 31 million something.

Well done. You're better than me.

Yes, that's why I counted.

If you are now 60, and I am 16 -

when I was born, you were 44.

And Mother Elizabeth
two years younger than mother.

Turns out when I was born

mother Elizabeth was 14, you were 44,

and mom is 16.

Is it possible?

[sad music]

You've got it all mixed up, Yuri. The lesson is over.

Dad, wait.

What kind of SMS did you receive?
"How is my son?"

The parishioner asks.

Why doesn't my mom ask?
- Yur, enough questions.

I didn't notice how you grew up and wised up.

This is how you raised and trained me.

There are just things
about which it is too early for you to know.

Does that mean I didn't grow up?

Grew up and I will definitely
I'll tell you, but not now.

Trust me,

I certainly never offended your mother.

It's just so much more complicated
than you might think.

We will definitely talk to you about this.

Just not now.

[whispers] Not now.

Fine.

[music fades]

"Arbat"?

And what is this institution?

Entertaining?

Call Olga Shumakova,
please, she works for you.

This is her husband.

How can you not? Why?

[disturbing music]

Where are you going?

Hello.

My dear, you are for the eldest.

I'll come in the morning, maybe in the afternoon.

- Food is in the fridge.
- I'm with you.

[inaudible]

She called me baby.

Girls, don't fight.

- I can't take you with me.
- We won't be alone, dad.

[plays the song "White Night" by the group "Forum"]

We missed "Good Night, Kids".

And you say you're not a baby. Where are we going?

I need to tell my mother something, you are sleeping.

When we arrive, sit in the car,
I will go myself. This is my business with my mother.

Oh, so we're in Moscow?
So we forgot the boxes.

It's OK.

To Moscow?

I won't be able to sleep then.

[music continues]

[music fades]

What is this chapiteau?[circus tent]

My wife Olga works here,

we need her.

With kids? You are mad, are not you?

And what is it?

There? No, if you want, go, I don't mind.

Did you see?

C'mon, screw that, they'll kick anyway out.

[dance music]

To ... a ball! Give me back my money, b*tch!
Give me back my money! f*ck!

Close your ears.

Give it back! Get away from me quickly!

Young man, where are you with your children?

Who let you in at all?

Excuse me, where can I find
Olga Shumakova? I am her husband.

Well, she works in the first hall.

As who?

So, girls, come here.

Come on in. Mish, skip it.

[music continues]

[man] Stop! Stop! What are you,
don't you see what's going on?

What did you arrange?

I'm lost all money because of you
do you understand?

- [Olya] Misha!
- Shut your mouth!

- [Olya] Misha, take him away, f*ck!
- Come on, choke on that, do you understand?

Get the f*ck out of here!

m*therf*cker, f*ck!

Natasha, take over for me.

Sorry.

Volodya!

- [Olya] Volodya, stop!
- Dad, dad, stop! Mom ran out.

- Volodya!
- I don't want to talk to her, I'm afraid.

- Dad, let's go.
- But it's mom.

Volodya, stop!

[music cuts off]

It's like it's not mom.

It's like all the devils there and demons.

Yes, she might be mad.

This is a Moscow demon
she wants to take you here.

Do you seriously think that there is a demon in mom?

[Volodya]
Don't know. But it's definitely not our mother.

[tense music]

[mooing cows]

- Until what time are we?
- [Martha] Until sunset.

Keep up.

Girls, what if they see a guy somewhere?

Six-month penance[punishment].

With 60 bows a day.

Again, exercise.

[Masha]
Why are all your executions so pleasant?

Most probably, they'll just kick you out.

[mooing cows]

Do you also cross "Snickers" when you eat?

- Here you are.
- Thank you.

I also wanted to ask

and mother Elizaveta
Is she as the main believer?

She, well, how to say, is she sane?

Mother Elizaveta is a holy woman.

It is only thanks to her that we live here.
The whole monastery is on her.

She laid down her life on it for us
with torment and hard labor.

And only she needs us
and the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Thank you, Lord, for such grace.

[cheerful music]

- [music cuts off]
- [ringing]

[sobs]

God.

Lord, that's it.

Mash, rest, you're tired.
Thank you, I would have died there.

You will die here now. I'm off for the medication.

Masha, I don't know anymore.

Hello, lord.

What a lord I am, I'm not even a bishop.

Oh, sorry, sorry, father.

This one here really pissed me off.

One hope is only for you.

[woman] His name is Kolya.

Well, speak for yourself.

I…

Say what's in your heart, don't be afraid.

Nits, scum, fart, schmuck!
sh*t-eater, schmuck, freak, fart!

I'm sorry, I…

He mocks.

Before you is the holy father.

Have you completely lost your mind?
Forgive us, forgive us.

We believe in God, whole family does,

and Kolenka too - he was baptized.

- Suck d*ck!
- Shut up!

[woman] Shut up, said shut up!

Forgive us, he was simply jinxed.

You know, they stuck needles in the door for us,

and the icon under the rug was also slipped.

[woman] I don't know what to do.
Lord, have mercy, father, I don't know.

Father, reprimand, expel -

do something, I just...

Stop crying.

[Barsanuphius] Stop crying.

Why are you doing this to me...
Why are you yelling at him?

He has Tourette syndrome, don't you know?

He is not sick.

[woman, viciously] He's not sick!

You're sick, Kol'.

But don't be afraid, it's a disease, it happens.

Like the flu or a cold.

When you have the flu
we are not afraid, but just treat it?

- He's not sick, he's a rascal.
- [Barsanuphius] Do not squeal in fear.

Father!

Heal.

I'm not Jesus Christ and I'm not a doctor,
I don't heal.

Let's go.

[whispers] Stop screaming and murmuring

you with your cry and murmur
you only make it worse.

And he didn't need to come to me, but you.

And your Kolya needs a good psychiatrist.

Well, then it's my fault.

Interesting. Your explanations
are not really Orthodox

- Is Elizaveta there?
- Hush, she's praying.

Mother Elizabeth!

- Panteleimona is dying, give me a first aid kit.
- Shh!

You are already the third day here
but you did not learn how to speak.

Yes, she really doesn't feel good.

Why did you come?

Ask for blessings?

So, okay, one more time.

Mother Elizaveta, I ask for blessings to
give Panteleimona medicine,

- Otherwise, she'll die right there.
- Abbess [head of female abbey].

What?

Abbess, not mother.

Hello Abbess Elizaveta.

- I ask for your blessing...
- What, my daughter?

Abbess Elizaveta,
I ask for your blessing

to give Panteleimona medicine,
Otherwise, she's going to die in there right now.

Give syringes, I can give injections myself.

Give me the syringes and I'll get out of your hair
for f*ck sake.

Lord have mercy.

[disturbing music]

When we swear

The Mother of God is crying.

And the ground is burning under your feet.

You know, I feel very good with you here,
I respect you a lot.

You probably want me to leave

but I have every right to be here
and seek God together with you.

And we are here to help you.

So let's help Panteleimona together.

Give at least analgin.

It's in the chest of drawers.

[Patricea]
Nothing can be taken without a blessing.

- What was your job before the monastery?
- What does this have to do with it?

I helped my grandmother in the hospital.

What if I came to your hospital and
started writing out God knows what prescriptions?

So why are you coming to us
with your charter?

Do you think I don't know mercy?

We have known her for many years.
She always has a stomachache.

It's just whining, she does not want to work.

And here the Virgin Mary appeared, she knows everything.

- So, maybe it was not in vain that I came?
- [Patrikeya] Shut up.

Will you tell the difference Virgin Mary
from Mary Magdalene?

- [Patricea laughs]
- Oh, it turns out there were two of them.

Go, she came to teach us.

Go!

Maybe I don't understand something

but even if she pretends
are you sorry?

You see, Kol'

the branch is broken, but does not grumble.

[Varsanuphius] Alive, still blooming.

Here you can break it

or you can tie. Here

Well, she doesn't yell swearings at you.

He needs to learn, you know.
There is no lesson, not to be expelled.

If the branch is twisted and pulled out,
it will crack

and fight for life.

What are you doing? You are yourself sick!

[woman] Kolya, let's get out of here.

What are you laughing at, freak!

You are healthy, but unpleasant,
when someone is stronger.

Fear God, holy fool.

Stop.

Christ will not break a broken branch.

And won't stomp the smoking flax

[whispering] If you loved Kolya more,

maybe he wouldn't have
this disease.

Do you want to love beautiful and healthy,

and get rid of this one, right?

You don't see how it hurts him.

[sad music]

[music fades]

[soft music]

[employee 1] Come here.

- [Worker 2] This way?
- Yeah.

Maybe that's not how it works at all.
How do we know?!

[employee 1 laughs]

Oh, Yurka, are you? Huh, brother?

We thought you didn't have anything there.

I... I prayed.

You also lie. Not good.

What, Georgi the Victorious,
the snake defeated you, huh?

- Yur, Yur, Yur!
- Come here! Stop!

What will your father do to you now?

Do not tell. Do not tell,
please, to dad.

“And don’t hide your sins in confession…”

How to deal with it, Yur?

Okay, Yurka, don't be ashamed. Fine.

We will show you a new life.

I'm sorry, father, I don't know
if I have you sinned today

but I'm sure I made a mistake.

- So. Did you break the fasting?
- No.

- Did you miss services?
- No.

- Did you lose faith?
- No.

Although, maybe I haven't found it yet

- What is your name?
- Maria.

Maria. Our Lord and God Jesus Christ,
grace and generosity,

Forgive me, child Mary,
all your sins.

In the name of the Father and the Son,
and the Holy Spirit, amen.

[priest] Kiss the cross of the Gospel.

- What did you talk about?
- So this is a confession.

Is there something that you're afraid of
to tell your mother?

- Listen, I'm to my mother ...
- Aren't you tired of making demons laugh?

Excuse me, mother Elizaveta,
I have nothing to say.

- You already told me everything.
- Get out!

[disturbing music]

[Barsanuphius]
Lord, don't let him become like his mother.

Don't let him fail
with them into hellfire.

Lord, forgive his sinful father.
Let him accept everything.

Lord, forgive me for this great sin.

I can't enter the church, forgive me.

Forgive me, Lord, for the lie, forgive me
I can't tell him everything.

In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

[Yura] I can't tell my father.

Lord please
I'm sorry. Help me!

[music cuts off]

Mother is beautiful.

She is ready to die for us all.

Ready, yes.

- Only you will die earlier according to her plan.
- Mash! You do not understand.

When she was appointed, for her
Barsanuphius put in a word.

- And he…
- Familiar.

He's an incredible person, Mash.

I would, you know, dream
to see him every day.

I believe him like God
he doesn't give bad advice.

- So he chose her?
- Mash, what's the difference?

He trusts her.

I came here for the Lord.

I, you know, when I sing to Him,

I feel so much life in my heart

I feel like I can take it all.

Understand?

Not really.

Ai.

[scream]

[knock]

[tense music]

[music continues]

Masha?

- [Patrikeya] Why aren't you sleeping?
- [Masha] My stomach hurts.

- So go and pray.
- Okay, I'll go.

Masha, stop!

What you have there?

[Patrikeya] Show me, I told you.

Well, what are you? Be careful, you'll break it.

[music cuts off]

Stole?

Let's go to mother.

Take off your hands, what are you, I'll go myself.

Sister Panteleimona is dying.

That's one shot!
What's wrong, God!

Mother!

Here's what happened today.

Look.

I'm not interested in today.

In general, how was she behaving,
what was she saying in the cowshed?

Well, commits blasphemies.

Laughs at prayers.

And now she's giggling.

- More!
- She ridiculed faith.

And protects Panteleimona
because she made friends with her.

- What?
- Friends at our place?

Friends?

Friends for the novice - the same thing,
as to drag a man into a monastic cell.

You have only the one close here! God!

I don't understand what's going on here.

Do not understand?

And you dare to advise us how to do it right?

- Did you come here to steal?
- And this is generally a mortal sin.

Let me sleep, please.

I'm sorry, mother. Disobeyed.

We will discuss this at lunch tomorrow.

- Go away.
- Let me go.

[whispers] Organized here the Middle Ages.

Well, what are you?

Are you so excited, huh?

Come on, come on, that's it.

I'm sorry, I couldn't, I was noticed.

I just don't understand how it all works.

It's just some kind of squealing.

Why can't you just take
medicines, Panteleimona?

What are you?

Do you hear me, God?

God, do you hear me, Panteleimona?

Masha, that's it.

Whatever, you're not even thirty.

I'm calling an ambulance.

I feel so bad.

You are not given more strength than Christ

Or how is it?

Come on.

[disturbing music]

[sob]

Hello, ambulance? Come
to the gates of the nunnery.

[notification sound]

[music fades]

She's in a monastery, I sent the geolocation.

Goats, f*ck.

[squeak of crickets]

- [Yura] Um…
- Hello, Yura.

I wanted to know…

A! Only could you not tell the dad?

- Well?
- You've been working here for a long time.

All in all…

Maybe you knew my mom?

Probably not. The father is a monk.

And what? I was born.

[man] Well, yes.

- What does dad say?
- A?

[energetic music]
