Summary |
Marc is a 39-year-old Catholic Priest, a model for his entire parish. Fully dedicated to his religious duties, he is one of the few enthusiastic advocates of priestly celibacy, having even written a book about it. Cherished by the media, he has become a star of sorts and is only too happy to serve God through his celebrity. But trouble comes knocking at his door one day, in the form of a smart-assed teenager who claims to be his son. Now Marc has a big problem on his hands. He can't get rid of the little bastard, but he has no time for him either. To make matters worse: the kid smokes dope, and the mother is in jail! So our good priest strikes a deal with his offspring: he will take care of him, but only on condition of absoulte secrecy. Inevitably the secret starts wearing thin. Moreover, Marc has trouble staying detached from his son... and even more trouble not falling in love with the child's mother when she comes out of jail. |
