00:04:14It must be my father's men looking for me.
00:04:16No, it's worse.
00:04:18What could be worse than our being discovered?
00:04:21Getting put in the army.
00:04:23Come on.
00:04:31But you're not a soldier.
00:04:33What's the war to do with you?
00:04:34I could be recruited.
00:04:36Anyone my age.
00:04:44So, that must be why they want to hurry up my wedding to Enrico.
00:04:51You didn't tell me.
00:04:55I didn't want to spoil our moments together.
00:04:58We meet so rarely, Julie.
00:05:07Oh, my sweet love.
00:05:08I love you always, whatever happens to us.
00:05:27Why can't you manage to convince your father?
00:05:30You can't imagine how many times I've tried.
00:05:33He won't listen to me.
00:05:34He signed a contract when I was a baby,
00:05:37which promises my marriage to Enrico.
00:05:41He did, but you had nothing whatever to do with it.
00:05:44I'm his daughter.
00:05:46I'm expected to obey.
00:05:48Look, darling, my family and his
00:05:50have intended to join their properties and fiefs for years.
00:05:55Those dirty landlords.
00:05:56Don't say that.
00:06:10Please.
00:06:13Well, then, better the war.
00:06:16The war.
00:06:16God knows you've been a disappointment,
00:06:21but your refusal to marry the man
00:06:23to whom you are legally betrothed
00:06:25brings dishonor upon my name
00:06:27and your mother's.
00:06:30You'll place us in a humiliating position,
00:06:32both morally and legally.
00:06:34Uncovered yourself with ignominy.
00:06:37And don't think that I don't know
00:06:38that you've been meeting that peasant boy in secret.
00:06:41Well, you shall never marry him, I assure you.
00:06:43You may go.
00:06:58If you don't want your daughter to be completely ruined,
00:07:01there's only one remedy.
00:07:04Get her to a nunnery.
00:07:09For that I thank you.
00:07:11It'll look to the world
00:07:13as if we let Carmela reject it.
00:07:15If she puts on a veil as the bride of the Lord,
00:07:18no one can claim you're dishonored.
00:07:20If she puts on a veil as the bride of the Lord,
00:07:20if she puts on a veil as the bride of the Lord,
00:07:21if she puts on a veil as the bride of the Lord,
00:07:22if she puts on a veil as the bride of the Lord,
00:07:23if she puts on a veil as the bride of the Lord,
00:07:24if she puts on a veil as the bride of the Lord,
00:07:25if she puts on a veil as the bride of the Lord,
00:07:26if she puts on a veil as the bride of the Lord,
00:07:27if she puts on a veil as the bride of the Lord,
00:07:28if she puts on a veil as the bride of the Lord,
00:07:29if she puts on a veil as the bride of the Lord,
00:07:30if she puts on a veil as the bride of the Lord,
00:07:31if she puts on a veil as the bride of the Lord,
00:07:32if she puts on a veil as the bride of the Lord,
00:07:33My name is Thomas Sena.
00:07:58I guard the gate to the outside.
00:08:00Here is the visitor's room.
00:08:02This is my lodging.
00:08:07Now take your leaves.
00:08:09You must go then, Marchioness.
00:08:11If we open the outside gate, we keep the cloister entrance closed.
00:08:25Mother, must I really separate myself from you?
00:08:31My family, my home, the fields, the flowers, the earth.
00:08:38From all the things I most love.
00:08:42My child, you must accept it.
00:08:47I'm sure you'll find a new life here in the service of our Lord and the happiness you deserve.
00:08:56May God keep you well.
00:08:58May God keep you well.
00:08:59May God keep you well.
00:09:00May God keep you well.
00:09:05May God keep you well.
00:09:14May God keep you well.
00:09:18Oh, such a lot you've brought that you'll never need.
00:09:41Ah, but money, though.
00:09:44And any jewelry you may have, you'd better leave with me
00:09:47or you'll lose it.
00:09:48In the cloister, you have to give up anything of value.
00:09:52I'll protect it if you'll entrust it to me.
00:09:57Why not?
00:09:58There's no reason to fear.
00:09:59Your jewels will be at your disposal always.
00:10:17There.
00:10:32When you speak to the others, they have to be addressed as sister.
00:10:35Though not the superior, she's addressed as mother.
00:10:38Thank you, sister.
00:10:54We welcome you.
00:10:56She's pretty.
00:11:13I'll bet she's ugly without that dress.
00:11:17We'll soon find out.
00:11:35It is forbidden to stand apart in isolation without mother superior's permission.
00:11:39I deserve to fast.
00:11:42Repeat it.
00:11:47Perhaps she didn't hear.
00:11:49I deserve to fast.
00:11:51I deserve to fast.
00:12:19Step-end.
00:12:43Let it go.
00:13:44The sackcloth of penance is blessed.
00:14:01Your lantern has to be kept lit.
00:14:03It must burn like the flame within your heart, which burns without cease for Christ our Lord and Saviour.
00:14:08As you commit our rose to memory from morn till night.
00:14:42A novice has 30 days in which to learn the rules of our order by heart.
00:14:52I have to stay 30 days in this cellar?
00:15:07Yes.
00:15:11Here newcomers stay to pass the purifying test and shall be under supervision all the time.
00:15:15We allow what is needful for rest and prayers.
00:15:24Body cleansing and then nourishment, which is in conformity with Franciscan vows of poverty, and finally for their bodily needs.
00:15:34All that is needed is blessed in the Lord.
00:15:40The well are not tended, but they that are ailing bring unto me the many evildoers that need curing.
00:15:46Thus saith the Apostle Matthew, and during this phase you must bear this passage in mind.
00:15:51The well are not tended, but they that are ailing bring unto me the many evildoers that need curing.
00:15:59The elder nuns will supervise you in turn.
00:16:09Never say a word to them, even to answer a question.
00:16:11Seven times a day did I praise thee, saith the Prophet.
00:16:18With the holy number seven we perform the duties of our office.
00:16:22At lords, at prime, at tiers, at sext, at none, at vespers, and at compline.
00:16:34Every day at four in the morning the praises shall be recited.
00:16:37A dish of boiled beans once a day except Friday, the day of total abstinence.
00:16:51To refuse food is a grave act of disobedience, because it is the bounty of our Lord.
00:17:16It is night, the hour of compline.
00:17:21I am reduced to nothing, and I am nothing, saith the Prophet.
00:17:28I am in thine eyes as a beast of the field, but I am ever with thee.
00:17:34My God!
00:17:37I can't stand it!
00:17:41Oh, my God!
00:17:43Have you no mercy on me?
00:17:47I want to die!
00:17:49I want to die!
00:17:53Let me out!
00:17:56Let me out!
00:17:57I'll kill myself!
00:17:59Oh, please, someone!
00:18:01Oh, please, let me out!
00:18:03I beg of you!
00:18:06Whoever you are, sister, tell them I can't go off!
00:18:09I don't want to!
00:18:11Tell them I'm going stark, raving mad!
00:18:13Oh, my God!
00:18:14Oh, my God!
00:18:15Oh, my God!
00:18:19Oh!
00:18:19Oh!
00:18:21Oh!
00:18:23This is a day of fasting.
00:18:25Have patience, sister.
00:18:26Tell me your name, sister!
00:18:30The elder nuns will supervise you internally.
00:18:32Never say a word to them even to answer a question.
00:18:36Today is the 15th day.
00:18:38Don't despair.
00:18:39The well are not tended, but the sick.
00:18:44Oh, Christ, I have sinned. Lord, help me.
00:19:09Oh, my God.
00:19:39Oh, my God.
00:20:09Oh, my God.
00:20:18I'm Elizabeth.
00:20:19The isolation period is horrible.
00:20:21We've all gone through it.
00:20:23Beatrice and Michaela, two novices like you.
00:20:25What did I tell you? She's ugly.
00:20:28Your name is Carmela, isn't it?
00:20:29Yes, sister.
00:20:31You'll soon be all right.
00:20:33Living here isn't as bad as it seems.
00:20:35You only need to find the right friend.
00:20:40Stay away from Sister Philomena, for example.
00:20:43She's a spy.
00:20:44She had Sister Chiara punished.
00:20:48There she is over there, tied to the tree.
00:20:53Don't even speak to Sister Philomena if you can help it.
00:20:56And don't ever trust her.
00:20:58You need my advice.
00:21:00Above all, don't trust the Mother Superior.
00:21:02She seems sincere, but she's a hypocrite and a liar.
00:21:06Here she comes.
00:21:17Carmela!
00:21:18Carmela!
00:21:35I'm your Mother Superior.
00:21:37How do you feel now?
00:21:39Better, I hope.
00:21:41You'll soon be happy in your new life.
00:21:42Would you like to be called Sister Agnes?
00:21:44Sister Agnes of the infant Jesus.
00:21:48You may go.
00:22:05Mother, I don't think I have enough faith.
00:22:09Don't tire yourself.
00:22:10We have plenty of time to talk.
00:22:14I'm here because my father...
00:22:16I understand.
00:22:18Try not to cry.
00:22:20Just trust me.
00:22:23You are part of a new family now.
00:22:26A much bigger family.
00:22:28And you'll have lots of sisters.
00:22:32Some of them, unfortunately, are not as good as others, but...
00:22:37I'll look after you.
00:22:38I'll be on you, Mother.
00:22:41And I'll follow your steps.
00:22:43One by one.
00:22:45Just as if you're beginning to walk.
00:22:53This will be your cell.
00:22:55The new arrivals always ask where their dowries have gone.
00:23:10Yes.
00:23:12They are sent to the church, on which our convent is dependent.
00:23:14They feed so many mouths.
00:23:15Do you see much charity in making your rivals feel uncomfortable?
00:23:21Are you envious of youth?
00:23:24Come, let me help you.
00:23:26Let me help you.
00:23:42The first time you needn't wear it so tight.
00:23:45You're looking for a mirror.
00:23:47The rose forbid it.
00:23:49But I'll look at you.
00:23:51And I see that you're beautiful.
00:23:54But you mustn't be vain.
00:23:56Vanity is a sin.
00:23:58But one that's not too serious.
00:24:00Not too serious.
00:24:17Carmela.
00:24:18That's Sister Lucia.
00:24:22That's Sister Lucia.
00:24:24You tried to defend her when you first arrived.
00:24:26Remember?
00:24:28But you weren't there.
00:24:32No, but I saw you.
00:24:34It was then I decided you would become my friend.
00:24:37You're very kind, Sister.
00:24:41However, whatever you do for Sister Lucia is wasted.
00:24:43She's lost her mind.
00:24:48Watch out.
00:24:49Here comes a spy.
00:24:52There are roads that seem straight,
00:24:55but they lead down to the fires of hell.
00:25:01For what crime can one be expelled from the convent?
00:25:04How naive you are.
00:25:07None.
00:25:09You only leave here when you're dead.
00:25:10However, another way can be arranged.
00:25:14You will learn it from me.
00:25:40More and more,
00:25:45more guilty.
00:25:47Here comes in.
00:25:50No food.
00:25:54No food.
00:25:56Help us if it's good food.
00:25:57No food.
00:26:01I can't stand it.
00:26:03Just went out that bed mine last time.
00:26:04I'll find my son.
00:26:34Well, as Lorenzo the Magnificent said, you never can be sure about tomorrow.
00:26:42He's right, especially with women.
00:26:45You don't have very much respect for women, do you?
00:26:48On the contrary, I find they're delightful, though their constant desire to catch the male is so transparent in every gesture that sometimes they're boring.
00:26:57Well, I can't say I find them boring.
00:27:01They readily come out to parties, to the theatre, to the country with me.
00:27:06But it's quite another thing whenever I try staying alone with them.
00:27:11You should never appear to try, my friend. You use the wrong method.
00:27:16Come on, let's have a cold plunge.
00:27:21Don Diego, I understand you even have a cloistered nun in your collection of women.
00:27:25Well, that's quite a claim.
00:27:31Love needs a touch of spice to make it more appetizing.
00:27:37I imagine that a cloistered nun bound to abstinence must be very peppery.
00:27:45They're delicious, my friend.
00:28:15Have you been paid?
00:28:20Oh, yes.
00:28:21Have you been paid?
00:28:22Oh, yes.
00:28:45You're welcome.
00:28:47Yes.
00:29:00Elizabeth.
00:29:26Diego.
00:29:30My, you look beautiful.
00:29:41I imagine your absence from me frightens you, just like at first, huh?
00:29:46As a love nest, it leaves much to be desired.
00:29:59I find it very exciting, and your apparent calm excites me even more.
00:30:10I am calm.
00:30:11No.
00:30:13You are a particularly beautiful woman, and no beautiful woman can be calm.
00:30:18It's the waves that make the sea so suggestive, and its dark depths exciting and mysterious.
00:30:29Not just any woman.
00:30:31That's true.
00:30:34What's that bell?
00:30:35Were they looking for you?
00:30:37No.
00:30:39It's the call to evening prayers, which each of us recites in her own cell.
00:30:52And, instead of praying, what does a nun really do in her cell?
00:31:00Sometimes she receives other nuns.
00:31:02I've always found intimacy between women.
00:31:13The best stimulant love can have.
00:31:17And, uh, what do you do?
00:31:25We kiss.
00:31:27You, because of your questions.
00:31:29Please wait to see so.
00:31:30Bye.
00:31:31Bye.
00:31:33Good John.
00:31:34Bye.
00:31:36Bye.
00:31:37Bye.
00:31:39Bye.
00:31:40Bye.
00:31:44Bye.
00:31:46Bye.
00:31:50Bye.
00:31:55Like this in secret
00:32:01So no one will know is that what you wanted to hear what else
00:32:11We caress each other
00:32:25Mother Superior prepares us spiritually for confession. It's one of our rules
00:32:44Remember, don't trust her
00:33:07I know the rules are severe
00:33:11It's up to us to make them bearable
00:33:14To make them a part of our daily lives
00:33:24None of us is born with the vacation
00:33:28But I believe that
00:33:31I believe that in the depths of our souls
00:33:34There's a small flame that we can build bit by bit
00:33:37Day by day
00:33:40Until we grow to accept this life of penitence
00:33:43This life of penitence
00:33:45This life of penitence
00:33:47To which our Lord has called us
00:33:49Here, far from the outside world, we live each day more intensely
00:34:05But don't be sad
00:34:07I'd like to see your eyes always joyful
00:34:13I'll help you erase the memories
00:34:17I see them, you know
00:34:19In your eyes
00:34:21But it's you, with your sweetness, you make the memories beautiful
00:34:25But it's you, with your sweetness, you make the memories beautiful
00:34:28The world outside is so cruel
00:34:35You know that well
00:34:39I need your affection
00:34:43May I kiss your cheek
00:34:45Father, during the night such awful visions I had of hell
00:34:57I dreamt I burnt my hands over the flames
00:34:59Well, as long as you don't do it during the day in the kitchen, sister
00:35:04You have nothing to fear, I would say
00:35:09But perhaps this dream may have been a warning to you
00:35:11And not just a figment of your imagination
00:35:14Sister
00:35:20What sins have your hands committed?
00:35:25Well
00:35:26I must save that question to be answered later, when I confess you
00:35:44Yesterday I stole a bald father
00:35:48And buried it in the garden
00:35:53Sometimes the temptation to steal is so strong
00:35:56A demon is tempting you to sin
00:35:58You must exorcise this demon, he is a tool of the devil
00:36:05Punish your hands to be saved
00:36:08Otherwise I cannot grant you absolution
00:36:14It's your turn
00:36:28It's your turn
00:36:44...
00:37:08Did he ask you where you put your hands?
00:37:10How do you know?
00:37:11Where you put your hands?
00:37:12How do you know?
00:37:13He asked everyone, it's an obsession.
00:37:41Sister, Sister Elizabeth, it's Carmela.
00:37:53I'm afraid.
00:37:54What are those screams?
00:37:56Don't worry.
00:38:01It's Sister Lucia, the mad one who's screaming.
00:38:05Every so often she does it and then she comes down.
00:38:08We all ignore it.
00:38:09Now go back to your cell.
00:38:28It is forbidden to leave one's own cell at night.
00:38:32I deserve corporal punishment.
00:38:36It is forbidden to leave one's own cell at night.
00:38:39I deserve corporal punishment.
00:39:06I deserve corporal punishment.
00:39:07I deserve corporal punishment.
00:39:10I'm so sorry.
00:39:11It's forbidden to leave.
00:39:12I have been willing to leave one's own cell.
00:39:13I have been willing to leave one's own,
00:39:27Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
00:39:57She's only a novice
00:40:08Let us pray
00:40:27Untie her
00:40:57Why did you not come to me if you were afraid
00:41:16You must trust me
00:41:21I still love you
00:41:27Oh, oh, oh
00:41:34I don't know
00:41:35Oh, oh

00:41:56Oh
00:41:57Poor Sister Lucia
00:41:58Buried in unconsecrated ground like a dog
00:42:03Oh
00:42:04I'm sure our lord in his infinite goodness and wisdom will have mercy on her on the day of judgment
00:42:10She never wanted to become a nun
00:42:12She never wanted to become a nun
00:42:13That's what made her lose her mind
00:42:15Her mind was possessed by a demon
00:42:18Otherwise, Sister Lucia might have lived to be a perfect nun
00:42:22As few nuns are, if the truth be told
00:42:25She had many good qualities, but she was weak and the devil laid his hands on her
00:42:32Good was overcome by evil
00:42:55I know you're not able to resist
00:42:56That's why I invited you
00:42:57You see?
00:42:58We lack nothing here
00:43:02Not even the mother's superiors, Lecourt

00:45:13I was perfectly happy
00:45:19But here there are no boys
00:45:23I have been waiting to speak with you for months
00:45:27I know that now you are leaving
00:45:29But first I must open my heart to you

00:46:04That you no longer loved me
00:46:05You say how could you think that
00:46:07How could you think that
00:46:09A bit more warmth please
00:46:11It's not true
00:46:12That's better
00:46:13So you still belong to me
00:46:15Oh

00:46:19No

00:46:23But
00:46:25What do you want?
00:46:27Your body
00:46:29Haven't you come here to offer yourself to me?
00:46:31I
00:46:33Didn't expect to
00:46:35Do you love another person?
00:46:43We have to leave
00:46:45That says to read a signal
00:46:47The game is over

00:48:33You weren't able to concentrate
00:48:35Your work isn't up to its usual standard
00:48:37I
00:48:38I feel it is
00:48:39I'm the one to decide

00:52:03I'm so alone
00:52:04You
00:52:05You can't imagine how great my solitude is
00:52:07Closed in my tower of authority
00:52:09I'm
00:52:11More a prisoner than all the others
00:52:13Please
00:52:15Oh, I need a little human warmth
00:52:19A little love
00:52:21Here
00:52:23We have
00:52:25We have love of prayer
00:52:27Divine love
00:52:31Love of God
00:52:33And
00:52:35And I do love God
00:52:37But
00:52:39It doesn't erase the fact that
00:52:41I have this desire for
00:52:43Another human being
00:52:45You
00:52:47You're the only pure one here
00:52:49And I'm so desperate
00:52:51Desperate
00:52:53Leave
00:52:55I
00:52:57I beg you mother
00:52:58Leave
00:53:01It's I who beg you
00:53:07Look at me
00:53:09Please
00:53:11Just one more time
00:53:13And I'll go away
00:53:15And I'll go away
00:53:25I've hurt you
00:53:29Forgive me
00:53:33But
00:53:35Nothing
00:53:37Nothing to the hurt that
00:53:39You've caused me
00:53:41I'm becoming attached to you
00:53:57Elizabeth
00:53:59I can help you to get free
00:54:01I'll keep you in my villa
00:54:03Another convent?
00:54:09No, thank you
00:54:11I prefer to see you here
00:54:13It's more exciting
00:54:15I've come to fancy life in the convent
00:54:17I've come to fancy life in the convent
00:54:19I've come to fancy life in the convent
00:54:23I've come to fancy life in the convent
00:54:25After all one can find affection there too
00:54:35Let's not talk anymore
00:54:37Let's not talk anymore
00:54:55Let's not talk anymore
00:55:11Carmela Maria Rosa
00:55:13Answer with purity of mind
00:55:15And in full freedom of conscience
00:55:17I shall
00:55:19I shall
00:55:21Do you come here of your own free will
00:55:23To swear before God
00:55:26To consecrate your chastity
00:55:28Your poverty and obedience child
00:55:38I do not
00:55:39Yes my daughter
00:55:48You consecrate your chastity poverty and your obedience to God
00:55:52Your grace
00:55:53You asked me to swear chastity poverty and obedience before God
00:55:58I understand you perfectly
00:56:00And my answer is no
00:56:02I can't deceive God in this way
00:56:05Above all
00:56:07Above all
00:56:09I
00:56:10Appeal to my father and mother
00:56:19Beatrice Maria Rolanda
00:56:23Will you answer with purity of mind and in full freedom of conscience?
00:56:26Yes I shall
00:56:28This is our last meeting
00:56:29I have no desire to see you again
00:56:32Of course I've realized it's a minor cross for you to bear
00:56:35That I've ordered your mother
00:56:37And your brothers
00:56:39And your sisters
00:56:41Never to see you again
00:56:43Your feel your loving kindness
00:56:45And obedient nature
00:56:47Of which so many happy displays are token
00:56:51Will help you to bear this cross too I have no doubt
00:56:54You're not only a disappointment to your family
00:56:56But a disappointment here
00:56:57I say you are a changeling
00:56:59You're no flesh of mine
00:57:01You cause me more pain than any of my children
00:57:03Perhaps because I had such high hopes for you
00:57:05But you're not my child
00:57:07For me, you were born dead
00:57:10You were born dead
00:57:11For me, you were born dead
00:57:14You were born dead
00:57:17Keep in mind there
00:57:20Move up
00:57:22Move up
00:57:24Come on now, move along
00:57:36Let's go.
00:58:06Be not wise in your own conceits, repay no one with evil for evil, but with good in the sight of all, from St. Paul's epistle to the Romans.
00:58:22Now let us pray for our soldiers, for the allied flag of the Holy Roman Church, for the arms that defend our Christianity, for our victory.
00:58:34In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. Amen.
00:58:56Oh, Julian's here. Oh, but what can I do?
00:59:02It's been a year since the last time I saw him, before I came here. But I love him. You understand?
00:59:15You must see him.
00:59:17But, Sister, how? Can I trust Sister Rita or Sister Thomasina?
00:59:23It's better not to. Trust me. I'll think about your meeting. And how to avoid the danger of being discovered.
00:59:34Oh, Sister Elizabeth, do you mean it? Will you really do it for me?
00:59:43Of course. I like to see you so full of enthusiasm.
00:59:46Oh.
00:59:47I will always be grateful to you.
00:59:58One day you'll do something for me.
01:00:00Oh, yes.
01:00:17!
01:00:20Julian!
01:00:27Oh.
01:00:29Oh.
01:00:30Oh.
01:00:31Oh.
01:00:32Oh.
01:00:38Oh.
01:01:09They are together now.
01:01:25Good.
01:01:29I've no one anymore.
01:01:32In all this while, only the thought of you kept me alive.
01:01:36I was certain that one day we'd meet again.
01:01:41I hoped we would too.
01:01:45But then, with all the wrongs we both suffered, I began to lose heart.
01:01:50My faith.
01:01:52My trust in men.
01:01:53There's something in you now that frightens me.
01:02:06Don't be afraid, my love.
01:02:08My feelings for you will always be the same.
01:02:10Take me away from here.
01:02:32Don't you want to?
01:02:40Of course.
01:02:45But where could we live?
01:02:47We can't live in this country.
01:02:49A nun who runs away from a convent is shunned by everyone.
01:02:52We'd be outcasts.
01:02:54We'd have nothing.
01:02:54But we'd have each other.
01:03:04Yes.
01:03:05But to flee together, we need first money and friends to hide us.
01:03:17And I'd have to run away from the army.
01:03:21Once you said soldiers were robbers.
01:03:23You called them outlaws then.
01:03:25Now you, Steele, you have changed.
01:03:34Yes.
01:03:36I know, but I had no choice.
01:03:44But I love you all the same.
01:03:55I love you all the same.
01:04:16I love you all the same.
01:04:18I love you all the same.
01:04:20You look radiant.
01:04:40Come to my room tonight.
01:04:41We'll all be there.
01:04:50Let's make love together.
01:05:07I invited you.
01:05:10You can't go away like this.
01:05:16Well then.
01:05:17You prefer the mother superior?
01:05:22The mother superior?
01:05:23What are you saying?
01:05:25How could you?
01:05:26It's true though, isn't it?
01:05:28No.
01:05:33Why humiliate me?
01:05:36Haven't I been your friend since the first moment you entered the convent?
01:05:40You led me to believe you cared as I do.
01:05:43I never let you believe that.
01:05:44Then what am I supposed to think about your conduct towards me?
01:05:52Were you faking?
01:05:53I'm sorry that you.
01:05:55Then prove to me that you're sorry.
01:06:14Do I repulse you?
01:06:25You don't know how much I've waited for this moment.
01:06:29And the courage it took to speak to you.
01:06:34Till now I've interpreted your every gesture.
01:06:37Your every word.
01:06:39As meaning that you might even care for me.
01:06:41I degrade myself.
01:06:47I'm no longer myself next to you.
01:06:53Now.
01:06:55Nothing matters to me.
01:06:58Unless I can love you always.
01:07:03Together we can find a way.
01:07:05No, it's not my fault.
01:07:08It's not my fault if you've misunderstood.
01:07:12You're clever.
01:07:15I'll make you regret it.
01:07:19Now I'm the one who doesn't want you.
01:07:22Get out.
01:07:23It makes life hard for me.
01:07:41I like to hear the quarrels between nuns.
01:07:47Tell me more.
01:07:48You must take care of the young man.
01:08:02You excite me more than any woman I've ever known.
01:08:12What do you want me to do?
01:08:15Tell me.
01:08:15Tell me.
01:08:15Tell me.
01:08:18If he should come for Rondinor.
01:08:31That should be amusing.
01:08:48Sister, I'd like to have those things I gave you when I arrived here.
01:08:55But you may keep half of them.
01:08:58What for?
01:08:59What do you want to do?
01:09:00Run away with him?
01:09:01Anyway, your things, like all of the others, are kept under Lachan's key.
01:09:05You should have warned.
01:09:05Better go.
01:09:08But don't forget.
01:09:09If the inquisitor's catch a nun who runs away,
01:09:11she can even be put to death.
01:09:13Hurry.
01:09:13Hurry.
01:09:36Hey.
01:09:36Don't forget.
01:09:37I've got no.
01:09:38Oh.
01:09:38Oh.
01:09:38Oh
01:10:08I told you he wasn't to be killed, but only cut out a certain way
01:10:35Someone's coming
01:10:38Julian
01:10:46Julian
01:10:50They killed him
01:11:01Julian
01:11:03Julian
01:11:05Julian
01:11:06He's dead
01:11:07He's killed him
01:11:09No
01:11:11No
01:11:13No
01:11:15Let him go
01:11:17He's killed
01:11:19Julian
01:11:21Let him go
01:11:23Let him go
01:11:25I want to die
01:11:26I don't want to live without him
01:11:28She said someone killed Julian.
01:11:30Not even to the archbishop.
01:11:32I have no one, no family.
01:11:34She said someone killed Julian.
01:11:36I have nothing left to live for.
01:11:38Then she died.
01:11:40Julian!
01:11:42It was you.
01:11:44She did it.
01:11:46It was you.
01:11:48Yes, you do.
01:11:50She did it.
01:11:52Damn the day I was born.
01:11:54Damn my mother.
01:11:56Are you mad?
01:11:57Take her away.
01:11:59Damn you!
01:12:01The whole lot of you!
01:12:03Let me go!
01:12:05Let me scare myself!
01:12:07Let me go!
01:12:21Sisters, we can find no trace,
01:12:23neither inside nor outside the convent walls,
01:12:25of what Carmela says has happened.
01:12:27We must presume she was delirious.
01:12:33How is she today?
01:12:35She has stopped crying,
01:12:37and murmured senseless phrases.
01:12:39May the Lord have mercy on our sister Carmela.
01:12:43Let us pray for her.
01:12:45Let us pray for her.
01:13:19Jesus.
01:13:49I bless 1,000 times the moment that you came into this world.
01:13:55You who suffered for us.
01:13:58You whose flesh was humiliated and martyred.
01:14:03You can understand me.
01:14:06You died for our sins.
01:14:08Please forgive me.
01:14:09I beg you, give me the strength to continue living.
01:14:17Mother of God, intercede with your Son.
01:14:29Father of God, intercede with your Son.
01:14:59Father of God, intercede with your Son.
01:15:05Through thy death, interiel, deliver us.
01:15:06Through thy holy resurrection, deliver us.
01:15:09Through thy admirable ascension, deliver us, Lord.
01:15:12Through the coming of the Holy Spirit, the Comforter, deliver us, Lord.
01:15:15In the day of judgment, deliver us, Lord.

01:21:46Carmela, you'll have to leave with the baby.
01:21:58If you wear these men's clothes, it'll be easier for you.
01:22:02In a few hours, there'll be no one left here.
01:22:05We're being sent away.
01:22:07The soldiers are coming to escort us tomorrow.
01:22:11The order's been dissolved.
01:22:14I'm not worthy of your sacrifice.
01:22:17That's not true.
01:22:18You'll be treated horribly in the convents where you're placed, won't you?
01:22:22Don't think about it.
01:22:25Mother.
01:22:29Mother.
01:22:30Mother.
01:22:30God bless you.
01:22:31It's almost daylight.

01:22:53I'd like to say goodbye to the others.
01:23:21You know it would be dangerous.
01:23:26Could you ever forgive me?
01:23:28I've already forgiven you.
01:23:33Goodbye.
01:23:35I love you.
01:23:47Here's your jewelry.
01:23:50And more from all of us.
01:23:53It'll be useful.
01:24:01Thank you, sister.
01:24:05Wait a little.
01:24:06When we're all out of the place, go wait by the ruined church.
01:24:09You'll see a woman who will look after you there.
01:24:12I'll see you next time.
01:24:13I'll see you next time.
01:24:15I'll see you next time.
01:24:17I'm sorry.
01:24:19I'll see you next time.
01:24:21Bye-bye.
01:24:23Bye-bye.
01:24:36Excuse me, sister.
01:24:37Excuse me, sister.
01:24:48Have you seen a young man with a baby?
01:24:54I was supposed to dress like a man.
01:24:56I didn't.
01:24:59But I'm the one you were to meet.
01:25:00But is your habit worn every day?
01:25:03Or did you borrow the veil?
01:25:04If God has accepted the vows I made in my heart, I'm truly a nun.
01:25:34Well, help me.
01:25:54What is your name?
01:25:55Sister Agnes.
01:25:58What will you do from now on?
01:26:01Aid those who suffer in this world.
01:26:04You have courage, sister.
