亚当（Andrzej Chyra 饰）直到21岁才发现人生的使命就是成为主的仆人。如今他已是波兰乡村的一位牧师，因帮助和挽救问题青少年而深受乡民爱戴。他拒绝了金发女郎伊娃（Maja Ostaszewska 饰）的求欢，表示已将此身献给上帝——然而这并不是全部原因。当他知道自己喜欢男性后，他就把从事牧师职业当成了对抗这种欲望的手段。直到遇见当地农户之子、沉默寡言的卢卡斯（Mateusz Kosciukiewicz 饰）后，亚当的禁欲心防终于决堤，迎接他的将是生命不能承受之重……
作为波兰著名女性导演，玛高扎塔·施莫夫兹卡一直将镜头对准波兰的社会现实。《之名》聚焦“基督教内同性恋”这一禁忌话题，以宗教信仰对决欲望，反思神性与人性的对抗，是一部拥有情感厚度的佳作。电影入围第63届柏林电影节金熊奖，获得了同志电影最高荣誉泰迪熊奖。
Adam, a Catholic priest who discovered his calling as a servant of God at the relatively late age of 21, now lives in a village in rural Poland working with behavioral problem teens who fight and yell abuses. He declines the advances of a young brunette named Ewa, saying he is already spoken for; however, celibacy is not the only reason for his rejection. Adam knows he desires men and that his embrace of the priesthood has been a flight from his own sexuality. When he meets Lukasz, the strange and taciturn son of a simple rural family, Adam’s self-imposed abstinence becomes a heavy burden. 【G5V.NET】
