  Spotless.
  Spoiler alert.
  There are so many layers of analysis!
  A Christian woman must believe that the father is the son. But this cannot be true.
  If so, only the holy spirit can explain it: the community of love between believers is the root of such unsolvable mathematics.

  I know this is obscure, but makes a lot of sense!

  Anyways, twins are, maybe, our best example of real fraternal love between equals. Our 1+1=1, as Jeanne and Simon pondered.
  Considering the twins, Nawal wonders, 'Where does your story begin?'
  She asks: 'with the promise to break the chain of anger'.
  Is it not the promise?

  Excellent film. A good story very well told. It's beautiful how even though some scenes are deeply uncomfortable (and funny for the same reason), they are in equal extent deeply sad but in a good way: you have to embrace the tragedy, there is no injustice here, there is nothing to fix, just good old guiltless disgrace. Lovely.
