Good comments

I thought also that 2.Ka3 would be better, thx for the final solution

The trick is that after Bd2 check white cannot interpose anything on Bc1+
After 1...,Be7+; 2.Ka5,Bd8 check white can stop the check with Nc7, interposing his Knight to prevent checkmate.
From c1 the Knight cannot step in between the bisshop and knight.

But once the knight moves, White loses its queen.

Very true, but checkmate wins quicker then gaining a Queen. If this were a real game, both Bd2+ and Be7+ would win of course.
