Why not here?

Right on the town square?

These people aren't easy. If they come

too close, they're not so nice anymore.

- Do they never come together?

- Only if they have to.

Sorry, Stach, I had to make a call.

Mayoral duties.

- Hallo, Daddy.

- Hello, Jar.

Is it a fun game?

'When will you be home?'

Honey?

You're already here.

Why didn't you say so?

- Honey, this is Stach. He just arrived.

- Hello. Please don't mind the mess.

If I'd known you were coming,

we'd have tidied up a bit, right?

In your chair, sweetheart.

Georgie, will you get the cutlery?

Jaroby. Jaroby, the plates.

Put away the paper, dear.

Stach vs churches

Jamal, sit down.

Will you turn off the TV?

Put down the paper, dear.

Put down the paper!

- I'm hungry.

- Quiet, sweetheart. Fold your hands.

Lord, we thank You for this food.

We especially thank You

for the arrival of...

- Sorry.

- Sorry. Sorry, really.

We trust in You, Lord, to give Stach

all the wisdom he needs to help us...

Alright...

God, help Stach to stop

the moving churches. Amen.

- Amen.

- And now let us eat.

I want hotpot.

Can I go first?

- Cool. What is it?

- Something I wrote for all the choirs.

It's a dream of mine that one day

we'll all sing it together.

It has everything. Here, on top,

the children's choir, the high notes.

Down below the male choir, the low

notes. And in the middle the elderly.

And here our friend Abdel.

Can I visit one

of those moving churches?

Turn left.

Take the next exit left.

Turn left.

Take the third exit left.

Dear congregation, welcome.

In front of you

you'll find my new composition...

written for all the choirs

of Ecumene.

But what I would really like...

is if we were to sing it all together

on the town square for just one time.

- Keep to the right.

- Sobriety.

- What?

- Sobriety.

Turn right.

- All those melody lines.

- I like those melodies.

But it could all be a bit lighter.

We have to celebrate our faith.

- Our faith? We're here with more...

- Let's not talk about your singing.

No one understands a word of it.

As for the rest, I don't like it at all.

Look, those notes down here.

I don't approve.

No, I'm not going to sing this.

- Listen, I can change this to major.

- Yes, major.

- Neither of the two.

- Neither of the two?

- Minor.

- No, major.

Neither of the two.

A nice gathering, isn't it?

Do as you like.

My men won't sing this nonsense.

- What?

- My men won't sing this nonsense.

It sounds terrible. Just listen.

Nice assignment.

If anything can stop them,

it's the churches themselves.

That's right.

Nobody will go along with this.

- All those choirs singing at once.

- Isn't that what you want?
