Synopsis: This comedy is a modern religious fable about belief and the fight between good and evil. Adam is a neo-Nazi, who is sent on community service with the priest Ivan. Ivan gives Adam the task of baking an apple pie with apples from the tree in front of the church. Meanwhile birds, worms and lightning attack the apples. Ivan believes it is the Devil testing them, but Adams believes it is God, because it might be that evil does not even exist.
