Kje se skrivajo in kaj počnejo "kaznovani" duhovniki? Neprizanesljiva družbenokritična obsodba grešne dvoličnosti katoliške Cerkve, obarvana s pridihom mračnega psihološkega trilerja.

Odročna hiša na čilski obali je nekakšno kazensko zatočišče za izolirano duhovniško skupnost. Štirje duhovniki, ki jih bremenijo različni grehi preteklosti, si skušajo skupaj z redovnico, ki naj bi skrbela zanje, osmisliti enolično brezdelje. Ideja o sodelovanju na pasjih dirkah se zdi na prvi pogled kot božji blagoslov. A s prihodom novega člana, pedofilskimi obtožbami in tragično smrtjo se navidezna idila poruši in zdi se, kot da so mestecu zavladale demonske sile ...

Težave imamo s fikcijo. Morda pa so preprosto razburjeni, ker sem ta film posnel jaz, režiser iz družine, ki ne podpira levice. Vendar zgodbe pripadajo nam vsem. Ti ogorčeni odzivi so tako značilno čilski in tako izčrpavajoči. Nekateri ljudje si določene dogodke lastijo in menijo, da imajo moralno pravico govoriti o njih. (Pablo Larraín)

[ENG]

How do the priests atone for their sins? Where do they hide repenting? A merciless, socially critical condemnation of the sinful hypocrisy of the Catholic Church with a tinge of dark psychological thriller.

A remote house on the Chilean coast makes for a penal colony for an isolated community of clergy. Four priests repenting for past sins live together with a nun, striving to create a sense of purpose in their idle lives. The idea to train their greyhound for the race comes as a true blessing. With the arrival of a new priest, sudden paedophiliac accusations and a tragic death, dark secrets come to light, exploring the past of these servants of God and shattering their fragile peace. It seems as if some demonic force has taken over the small town.

We have a problem with fiction. Or maybe they're simply upset that it's me making the film, a director coming from a family who is not in the left. But stories are there for all of us. These virulent reactions are so Chilean and so exhausting. There are people who believe they own certain events and thus have moral authority to talk about them. (Pablo Larraín)
