In “Au nom du père,” Fred Pellerin tells of a priest’s death and the digging of two graves, one on either side of the cemetery fence. Over three days and three nights of the wake, the entire village debates where to bury him: in consecrated ground or on the other side. Just when everyone thinks they know all about this man of the cloth, the widow’s story reveals unexpected truths and the priest’s secrets, as the legendary court of public opinion in Saint-Élie-de-Caxton delivers its peculiar judgment.
