Synopsis
Adam, a neo-Nazi, is sent on community service to a vicarage. Here, the minister Ivan gives Adam the task of baking an apple pie with the apples from the tree growing in front of the church. Meanwhile birds, worms and lightning attack the apples. Ivan believes it is the Devil testing them. Adam believes it is God, because perhaps evil doesn't exist at all.

Critics' reviews
- "Funny, politically incorrect and, somewhere deep down, thoughtful black comedy"
- "Peculiar but oddly winsome fable."
- "Jensen tarnishes the lining of every cloud in one wickedly funny scene after another."
- "Some will see this as a movie about how we're all God’s children. I saw only the misanthropic fulminations of Jensen's runaway ego."
