Danish with English subtitles. Ivan is an unusually optimistic preacher who takes in convicts to help around the remote, rural church he ministers to. His newest ‘helper’ is Adam, a vicious neo-Nazi anxiously serving his community service time so he can return to hell-raising. Asked to set a goal for his stay, Adam sarcastically answers that he’d like to bake a pie. Ivan cheerfully takes that statement at face value and puts him in charge of the parish’s pride and joy: the only apple tree in the vicinity. Grasping the extent of Ivan’s crazed, preternatural determination to look on the bright side of everything, Adam decides to shake Ivan out of his rose-colored world.
