Transcript
00:00:12Before the Civil War, New Orleans was unique in all the world, more French than it was American.
00:00:19Races freely mixed, creating a new class known as Creoles, or free people of color.
00:00:25European men were especially enchanted by the exotic light-skinned women of this class,
00:00:30whose ancestors were the children of master and slave, Spanish and French.
00:00:35Big night tonight.
00:00:41Parties were thrown at the old Orleans ballroom, where the Europeans would select the young women,
00:00:47pledge support, raise families with them, yet never marry.
00:00:51One such liaison, that between Jean-Baptiste and Poupon de Lille,
00:00:56produced a daughter whose dreams would change the old Orleans ballroom,
00:01:00and her world, forever.
00:01:03Au revoir.
00:01:04Au revoir.
00:01:08Au revoir.
00:01:13Au revoir.
00:01:15Au revoir.
00:01:24Au revoir.
00:01:33Grandmama gave it to me
00:01:34To wear on my night
00:01:36For luck
00:01:37It brought me love
00:01:39It will bring you the same
00:01:43Silly
00:01:45Papa
00:01:46Mama has to finish my hair
00:01:48I want you to show me those fancy new steps of yours
00:01:51A reverse, likely
00:01:53As a bird suddenly flies
00:01:55So, one, two
00:01:56I will fly like a bird
00:01:58But I won't have a partner
00:01:59If my hair's a bird
00:02:03Marsheri
00:02:09Chin up, chin up
00:02:10You don't need to see
00:02:11You must trust your partner
00:02:12I'd like to know where I'm going, Papa
00:02:14Then you should not waltz
00:02:16It is the quadril for you
00:02:17Or the poker
00:02:27Bonsoir, Jean-Baptiste
00:02:28Bonsoir, Jean-Baptiste
00:02:30Oh, Rien
00:02:31Late
00:02:32On your sister's night
00:02:34She forgets everything else
00:02:35When she's in the classroom
00:02:36Forgive me, Celie
00:02:38And will you forget next year
00:02:39When it is your turn?
00:02:41I certainly hope so
00:02:43I might not be able to waltz by then anyway
00:02:45Oh, nonsense
00:02:46Nonsense
00:02:48You must stop with your grand opinions
00:02:50It will only upset her
00:02:52I'm not going to say another word about it
00:02:54I'm so dull without you on Sunday dinner
00:02:58Mama didn't eat a thing
00:03:01Well, I, um
00:03:04Only yet
00:03:07Girl
00:03:08Betsy
00:03:09What is that wine I asked for?
00:03:11Sorry, Mr. Jean
00:03:12Don't give me excuses, girl
00:03:14Bring me some wine
00:03:19Papa, was I doing it so wrong?
00:03:22Maybe you will be ready next year
00:03:24If you keep your chin up
00:03:28Chin up, chin up
00:03:33I know you will have a wonderful time, ma chere
00:03:36You look beautiful
00:03:36But you said you would attend with us
00:03:38I wish I could
00:03:39But unfortunately, I have important business
00:03:43Bonsoir, mon amour
00:03:43Bonsoir
00:03:45But, papa, I...
00:03:48Celie, every man there will watch you dance
00:03:50And wish he were your partner
00:03:51By the way, your bird's nest looks lovely
00:03:55A bientou
00:03:56Bonsoir
00:03:58Yep
00:04:13Je vous présente, monsieur Samuel, tout près
00:04:19Enchanté
00:04:25Your father has chosen well
00:04:28Pray for her
00:04:29Pray for love, Henriette
00:04:41Bonsoir
00:05:01Amelia, I've got you in the name of the parents and children.
00:05:12Espiritu Sancti, amen.
00:05:16Amen.
00:05:21My mom, why isn't Papa here?
00:05:24Obviously, the business of the plantation is taking longer than expected.
00:05:29Well, he said he was going to be here.
00:05:32Your papa has not stayed with me for 25 years because I insist that he be here or there.
00:05:38Don't you care?
00:05:40Questions.
00:05:41Henriette, always questions.
00:05:44Ask too many questions and you will drive your man away.
00:05:49Marie is going to meet us at the boat.
00:05:51She's bringing school supplies and Julie and I promise to be there.
00:05:55You'll be very careful.
00:05:56It's dangerous there since the Americans came.
00:06:00Au revoir.
00:06:01Au revoir.
00:06:17Now, we start the bidding.
00:06:19I'm bidding at 150.
00:06:21150, do I hear 150?
00:06:23Yes, sir.
00:06:24200, anyone.
00:06:25200.
00:06:27Yes, sir.
00:06:28Thank you very much.
00:06:29250.
00:06:30300.
00:06:32Yes, sir.
00:06:32Yes, sir.
00:06:32Yes, sir.
00:06:33325.
00:06:34325.
00:06:36Yes, sir.
00:06:39Papa?
00:06:45Were you addressing me?
00:06:47No, sir.
00:06:48I thought I knew the gentleman who we were talking to.
00:06:52Did you now?
00:06:53Henriette.
00:06:55Henriette.
00:06:57I thought I just saw my papa.
00:07:00Bonjour.
00:07:01Bonjour.
00:07:02Here's the bread we wanted for Marie.
00:07:05Henriette.
00:07:06Uh, be right there.
00:07:08Can I go to that for you?
00:07:24Would you like some?
00:07:27Give me that.
00:07:28Hey, do it.
00:07:30Give me some.
00:07:32Miss, let me do that for you.
00:07:33No, no.
00:07:37You're sitting semen.
00:07:41In a city like this, the masters do nothing?
00:07:46Oh, yes.
00:07:48Can't work not that.
00:07:49Henriette.
00:07:51Jacques!
00:07:52Get over here!
00:07:54Yes, sir.
00:07:56Don't make me call you twice.
00:07:58Get over there and help Mrs. Morgan with her things.
00:08:01Sorry, ma'am.
00:08:02Let me get toast for you.
00:08:03What am I giving Marie now?
00:08:06Oh, she won't go hungry tonight, Julie.
00:08:09Oh, there she is.
00:08:10Marie!
00:08:14Oh, my God.
00:08:16Excuse me, sir.
00:08:17Would you mind something?
00:08:18Oh!
00:08:23Oh!
00:08:24Oh, my God.
00:08:26Come on, ma'am.
00:08:29I'm coming.
00:08:33Oh, my God.
00:08:37Oh, my God.
00:08:42Oh!
00:08:49Apparently, I missed the Delta waters more than I knew.
00:08:52Oh, thank you, thank you.
00:08:55So much trouble for such an old maid.
00:08:57Miss, I'll do it again.
00:09:00It's kind of hot out here anyway.
00:09:02Enough of that.
00:09:04It'll go to his head, and I'll get a week of sulking and slow service out of him.
00:09:09Sir, he dove in to save a woman's life.
00:09:11Well, the rest of you stood by checking your wash fobs.
00:09:14There are laws against sassum.
00:09:18Better learn that for your own good.
00:09:24Jacques, clean yourself up.
00:09:26I don't want people thinking that we dress you like that.
00:09:34Looks like clean speed and sardin.
00:09:37How can you make me leave Charleston for this?
00:09:40Look at them.
00:09:41Parade and around.
00:09:43Give it time, dear.
00:09:44Things are going to change.
00:09:47Well, is anyone else for a swim?
00:09:50Allow me to introduce myself.
00:09:51I am Gerard Gauthier.
00:09:52My parents have just taken up residence in a plantation up near Ponce Trin.
00:09:56Enchanté.
00:09:57I'm Marie Alicott, and these are my good friends, Julie Godin and Henriette Delil.
00:10:02Welcome to New Orleans.
00:10:03Would you do me the honor of allowing me to see you home?
00:10:06We have our own carriage, but thank you.
00:10:08Then at least I can carry your things.
00:10:10Well, well, well.
00:10:12The accent's not from the West Indies.
00:10:13I think he's from France.
00:10:14You can always ask him at the ball next week.
00:10:16I'm not going to the ball.
00:10:18But it's been arranged.
00:10:21Oh, I saw my father today.
00:10:23Of course, he didn't see me.
00:10:25I don't want that.
00:10:26Not for me, not for my children.
00:10:28I expect you'll be telling your mother soon.
00:10:31She'll understand.
00:10:33Ah, you've imported rocks?
00:10:37They're books.
00:10:38We're teachers at the parish school, and Marie's a missionary.
00:10:41Oh, wonderful.
00:10:43These will be difficult to accomplish with dignity.
00:10:47I'm sure you'll be able to manage somehow.
00:10:49Only we shall steadfastly live and encourage my mamas.
00:10:57One, two, three, four.
00:11:00Excellent.
00:11:00That's it for today.
00:11:02Au revoir. Merci.
00:11:05Thank you. Au revoir.
00:11:07Au revoir. Merci. Au revoir.
00:11:10Au revoir. Merci.
00:11:16Take your seats.
00:11:19I'm so glad we found your parish, Father Rousselon.
00:11:22The cathedral seemed, well, full of foreigners.
00:11:24We're glad to find you, Mrs. Morgan,
00:11:26and to have your husband as a warden.
00:11:31A catacism class for girls this late?
00:11:35It's very good, Simone.
00:11:41Slave children?
00:11:43Mrs. Morgan slaves are God's children, too.
00:11:46We are allowed to teach them at night.
00:11:49Henriette.
00:11:51Bonsoir, Father.
00:11:52Bonsoir.
00:11:53Bonsoir, Father.
00:11:54This is our newest student, Simone.
00:11:57Her father will bring her to church on Sunday.
00:11:59That's my Jacques' daughter.
00:12:01I can read, Father.
00:12:03Very good.
00:12:05Very good.
00:12:05Teaching colors to read requires permission.
00:12:13God is love.
00:12:18Repeat.
00:12:19God is love.
00:12:22Excellent.
00:12:29Henriette, do you have their permission?
00:12:33You know it's illegal to teach slaves to read without their master's consent.
00:12:38How can they learn the catechism unless they read it?
00:12:41How can they truly worship if they can't read the Bible?
00:12:44Do the masters know, Henriette?
00:12:47God knows.
00:12:51Good, not sure.
00:12:52For the following, it's hilarious.
00:13:06What does it mean?
00:13:06Oh, dear.
00:13:07And this is the first time we're gonna do it.
00:13:07Oh, dear.
00:13:08Let's go.
00:13:08Oh.
00:13:09Oh, dear.
00:13:12Oh, dear.
00:13:14Oh.
00:13:15Oh, dear.
00:13:15Oh, dear.
00:13:15Oh, dear.
00:13:16Oh, dear.
00:13:17Oh, dear.
00:13:18Henriette what is this I have heard? You are teaching slave children. Do you want to
00:13:24hurt your father? Do you realize he does business with their masters? And the sons of those
00:13:29masters will be attending your ball this week. Do you want them laughing at you behind your
00:13:34back? Do you want them to wash their hands after they finish dancing with you? Henriette,
00:13:41I have asked you a question. Papa?
00:13:58No. You will not raid your heart for these white bastards to see.
00:14:16Come on, Henri. She'll blame me if you're not ready. I hate this. You know how much I do.
00:14:23Oh, my mom was right about the green. You love him? Who? Oh, Samuel? Yes. He's promised that we will
00:14:37be together until we're old and crutchy.
00:14:42But you can't marry, Ceiling. What difference does it make if he stays with me?
00:14:47God means us to be married till death parts us. To walk across a square openly as man and wife.
00:14:54Otherwise, we're just being bought.
00:14:56God, it's... It's like the... I think... I... Look...
00:14:59Marie, think before you speak.
00:15:04What made you think things would be different with us?
00:15:08Jean-Baptiste, you made a promise to me. Was I naive to believe in you?
00:15:13And I've kept my word. I help you raise the girls. Cecilia is taken care of and now Henriette is
00:15:19well-placed too.
00:15:20And me, Jean. Me!
00:15:23I must produce legitimate heirs. You knew that. It is something I must do.
00:15:37You will be ravishing. Every man there will hunger after you. And they will envy your gentleman, Paul Cartier, who
00:15:46has assured me he will provide you with the finest of everything.
00:15:51Did he say for how long?
00:15:54And when I see you in the square tomorrow or the next day, will you see me?
00:16:01You are my beloved children. And you always will be.
00:16:06Even if I can't see you again for a long time.
00:16:11I'm getting married.
00:16:16And then you'll leave us.
00:16:20So this is the life you want for me, Maman?
00:16:24I will not go to the ball.
00:16:27I will not meet Paul Cartier.
00:16:29And how do you intend to live if you don't go to the ball, my dear?
00:16:32How will we?
00:16:35If you have not understood things, your papa has just ended our lives.
00:16:42Oh, Poupon, don't be so dramatic.
00:16:45You can keep the slave and lease her out.
00:16:47And the house, of course, too, as I promised.
00:16:50Well, at least we won't be begging in the square where you and your wife might see us.
00:16:55Poupon.
00:16:56Oh, Jean-Baptiste.
00:16:57If this is my house,
00:17:02get out.
00:17:21No, no, no, no.
00:17:23Not now.
00:17:25Cecilia, you fasten your sister's gown.
00:17:27She's right. Let's go.
00:17:28We will be late if we don't hurry.
00:17:36We will be late if we don't hurry.
00:17:42Not a minute.
00:18:01There is no love here.
00:18:05This is what we do. We have no choices.
00:18:16Oh, the cross was spectacular.
00:18:24My name is Paul Cartier.
00:18:31I am delighted, mademoiselle.
00:18:34Shall we?
00:18:38Come on.
00:18:38What did we do?
00:18:39What did you see?
00:18:40I am a baby.
00:18:44Oh, my.
00:18:50Oh, my.
00:18:55Hi.
00:18:58Oh, my.
00:19:11May I?
00:19:12May I?
00:19:37May I?
00:20:11May I?
00:20:11Monsieur, you took me by surprise.
00:20:13Was there any other way?
00:20:16Monsieur Gautier,
00:20:19I have made previous arrangements
00:20:21for this one, but don't worry.
00:20:23There are plenty others to choose from.
00:20:26Shall we dance now?
00:20:29I've always understood
00:20:31that a lady could choose her partner.
00:20:33A lady?
00:20:34Monsieur, I am committed to
00:20:37a year's support.
00:20:38Retire.
00:20:40I'm sure your friends used to believe
00:20:43that you were a gentleman.
00:20:45Sir?
00:20:45I'm sorry.
00:20:46Maybe I do not understand
00:20:47the way of things in America.
00:20:52Yet.
00:21:01So this is what's to come
00:21:03of my steadfast belief
00:21:04and encouragement,
00:21:06Gerard Gautier?
00:21:07You saved me.
00:21:08If you had not taken my hand,
00:21:10I would have been committed
00:21:11to a duel at the Orcs.
00:21:12I am sure of it.
00:21:14Some of the men that attend these balls
00:21:16are suspect in character.
00:21:19I suppose that's to be expected.
00:21:23You have nothing to say for yourself?
00:21:25Forgive me.
00:21:27I only came here to look for you.
00:21:30Oh, yet.
00:21:34May I call on you sometime?
00:21:39Good night.
00:21:40Don't look back.
00:21:40Be coy.
00:21:43Good night.
00:21:48What were you thinking tonight?
00:21:50You shamed me, Henriette.
00:21:52Your life is not for me.
00:21:54Oh.
00:21:55My life is not good enough for you.
00:21:58Not good enough for your father.
00:22:00Not good enough for you.
00:22:01I have no say in this.
00:22:03I have no freedom.
00:22:04You get out.
00:22:06You are his.
00:22:07You are just like him.
00:22:09You just get out.
00:22:10Get out, Henriette.
00:22:12Get out of my house.
00:22:58Who's there?
00:23:01Henriette?
00:23:03Are you hurt?
00:23:04I can't live the life I'm supposed to live.
00:23:06I can't pretend.
00:23:08Then you mustn't.
00:23:10Then I can never go home.
00:23:13You are always welcome here.
00:23:15In God's house.
00:23:18God's house?
00:23:20Yes.
00:23:25Everyone's house.
00:23:26Yes.
00:23:39There you go.
00:23:41For you.
00:23:45For you.
00:23:49Oh, Marie will look at your leg over there.
00:23:54Henriette?
00:23:55May I present Dr. Gérard Gauthier?
00:23:58I said I would pay a call.
00:24:01You have already met?
00:24:04Doctor.
00:24:04I was.
00:24:06I gave it up.
00:24:07Dr. Gauthier is trained in the most advanced medical science,
00:24:10and he has come to help our set up the infirmary.
00:24:13You were given the gift of healing, and you gave it up?
00:24:16For what?
00:24:18I'm sorry.
00:24:19I always ask him any questions.
00:24:23In France, I shared a practice with my uncle,
00:24:26but my patients were so rich,
00:24:29they could have hired God himself to cure them.
00:24:32They certainly did not need me.
00:24:34But you couldn't give it up in your heart.
00:24:36So here you are, helping us.
00:24:39If you will have me.
00:24:41This was your idea.
00:24:43Well, now I...
00:24:44But Father Rousselon tells me, uh...
00:24:46I just saw a place that would be safe for them.
00:24:49The people of the parish bring food,
00:24:51and Julie, Marie, and I serve it every day to them.
00:24:54So that's where you have been?
00:24:56Here?
00:24:57Oh, I, uh...
00:24:58I called at your cottage more than once.
00:25:01Your sister, Cecilia, is it?
00:25:04She would not give me any information,
00:25:05even when I assured her that my intentions were honorable.
00:25:10She means well.
00:25:12I stay with Julie now.
00:25:15I, uh...
00:25:17I understand your mother is ill.
00:25:19Is there anything I can do?
00:25:21There's nothing the medicine can cure.
00:25:24I apologize.
00:25:26I do not mean to cry.
00:25:29Miss Celie?
00:25:30Miss Celie!
00:25:32That's it.
00:25:32My mom went mad.
00:25:34She tried to hurt herself.
00:25:35I finally got her settled in bed.
00:25:36She was a wild thing.
00:25:37She's screaming and running.
00:25:39Amelia, here.
00:25:41Oh, my mom.
00:25:43She's screaming and running.

00:35:33Goodbye, Papa.
00:35:42Oh.
00:35:45We've come for a visit.
00:35:47Oh, my.
00:35:50Now Amelia's grown.
00:35:53She's finally fallen asleep.
00:35:55I'm going to put her down.
00:36:02Oh, yet, please, you're my sister.
00:36:06This ridiculous law about covering or braiding your hair,
00:36:09it has no place amongst family.
00:36:12I am not your family, Samuel.
00:36:19Have I offended you in some way?
00:36:22I will take care of you as my family, I swear.
00:36:25But you're not married to Cecilia.
00:36:28You know, it's only that the law forbids it.
00:36:32Have you presented my sister and your child to your parents?
00:36:36My parents are in Europe, and I'm not close to my family here.
00:36:40You know that.
00:36:41Do they even know you have a daughter?
00:36:43Any of them?
00:36:44I cannot change the way things are.
00:36:46Please, Henriette.
00:36:48Is it just the way things are?
00:36:55This, this Dr. Gerard, Cecilia tells me that...
00:36:58He will not be taking care of me, either.
00:37:01Oh, I wasn't asking that.
00:37:03I just thought, perhaps, he has introduced you to his parents.
00:37:09Oh, well, perhaps when the time comes.
00:37:21I told Master, if he touch her again, he best kill me.
00:37:28And leave Simone alone.
00:37:30She going on and on about hope.
00:37:33Any white church selling hope is selling lies.
00:37:37Jacques, come on, Sunday.
00:37:40God's ways are mysterious sometimes, but if you open your heart and pray, I'd believe you.
00:37:46Pray?
00:37:46Pray?
00:37:48Pray for what?
00:37:49For things to get better?
00:37:52I did that already.
00:37:53I guess your God must be having a joke with me.
00:38:03He has a right to his anger.
00:38:05Perhaps we can only heal his physical wounds.
00:38:11I will not give up on him.
00:38:14Simone's way too important.
00:38:18If I come on Sunday, will you sit with me?
00:38:24Mr. Morgan and his wife would not approve.
00:38:27And that would be fantastic.
00:38:30What about you sit with me?
00:38:34Thought so.
00:38:38Can I walk you on, Mr. Lill?
00:38:41That would be fine.
00:38:42You're willing to wait?
00:38:51What about you?
00:39:19What they have here?
00:39:21What the hell?
00:39:22Good night, sir.
00:39:25Such beautiful hands.
00:39:27That do so much.
00:39:29No.
00:39:30But I want to be with you.
00:39:32To make my life with you.
00:39:36We can't even sit together in church.
00:39:39And I won't be your mistress.
00:39:41What was I thinking could come of this?
00:39:43Henriette, listen.
00:39:45In front of all of these people,
00:39:47I ask you.
00:39:52Will you do me the honor
00:39:55of becoming my wife?
00:40:02If it were only possible.
00:40:05But it is.
00:40:06In France, we can be legally married.
00:40:09France.
00:40:11But my mother, my sister,
00:40:13the church, my school.
00:40:15We can work together, side by side.
00:40:17A man and his wife in France
00:40:18without this insanity.
00:40:20I can't abandon my people.
00:40:22But what about yourself?
00:40:24What about your happiness?
00:40:26Gerard,
00:40:28to be a wife?
00:40:30No, just to say that
00:40:32your wife,
00:40:35it's like a dream come true,
00:40:37but I can't.
00:40:37It means I'm running away.
00:40:39Do not say no just yet.
00:40:41I will wait.
00:40:44As long as you want.
00:40:46I will wait.
00:41:07There's so many out there.
00:41:09Must be the rain.
00:41:26I must say,
00:41:27it's most encouraging.
00:41:29We have 20 more today.
00:41:30Welcome them,
00:41:31and they will come.
00:41:32We're also working on the free families.
00:41:33Father,
00:41:34you stop bringing too many blacks in here.
00:41:36Collection plate's gonna get mighty bear,
00:41:37because no white folks
00:41:38will be feeling it.
00:41:41All colors I've worshipped here
00:41:43together for generations, sir.
00:41:45Is that a fact?
00:41:46Well,
00:41:47maybe we better start
00:41:48having two services then, huh?
00:41:53Miss Henriette!
00:41:55That's it?
00:41:56Miss Henriette,
00:41:58you must come quick.
00:41:59Please, Isilie.
00:42:00Mr. Samuel,
00:42:01there's been an accident.
00:42:18Mr. Samuel's aunt's coming.
00:42:21Ma'am,
00:42:22the hearse is here.
00:42:22You have to leave.
00:42:23We haven't even paid our respects.
00:42:25Ma'am,
00:42:25I'm so sorry.
00:42:26I shouldn't have let you in
00:42:27in the first place.
00:42:28What?
00:42:30What?
00:42:31I'm the only family that he has.
00:42:33He hasn't even met his aunt.
00:42:35Miss, please.
00:42:36You have to go.
00:42:38Why?
00:42:38How can they do it?
00:42:39I'm his aunt.
00:42:46Bishop Blanc,
00:42:50I represent the wardens
00:42:52of Father Rousselon's church.
00:42:54Are you aware
00:42:55of what's been going on
00:42:56these last few months,
00:42:58because it just keeps
00:42:59getting worse
00:43:00and all you do
00:43:01is nip at the edges.
00:43:18Children,
00:43:19children,
00:43:20come, come.
00:43:21Come, come.
00:43:23Okay.
00:43:25Repeat.
00:43:26Oh?
00:43:28See?
00:43:29See?
00:43:30See?
00:43:30See?
00:43:32Etienne,
00:43:33why are these lay workers
00:43:34wearing habits?
00:43:37They donated their wardrobes
00:43:39to the needy
00:43:39and simply chose
00:43:40to dress in a uniform
00:43:41more practical
00:43:42for their work?
00:43:43The wardens want
00:43:44to put a stop
00:43:45to all this work.
00:43:48These women are bringing
00:43:49this parish to life.
00:43:51We must refuse.
00:43:52I have.
00:43:54For now.
00:43:56But it's rumored
00:43:58Rome will denounce slavery.
00:44:01Our position is precarious
00:44:03with the Americans.
00:44:04They want the school closed.
00:44:05They want you out.
00:44:07And I see you've started
00:44:10an infirmary.
00:44:15Many of those
00:44:16we helped
00:44:16return to mass
00:44:17on Sunday.
00:44:19The church
00:44:20is filling up
00:44:22with abandoned
00:44:23slaves.
00:44:29What they are doing
00:44:30is so clearly
00:44:31God's work
00:44:32and we may not
00:44:34be able
00:44:34to protect them.
00:44:39Oh, oh no.
00:44:41Not this one too.
00:44:42You can't give away
00:44:42your ball gown.
00:44:43That one more
00:44:44than any other.
00:44:45No, I'll keep it.
00:44:48You've been speaking
00:44:49with Betsy
00:44:49about freedom.
00:44:51Giving away
00:44:51all your clothes.
00:44:52And next will be
00:44:53this cottage
00:44:54and where will that
00:44:54leave me and my children?
00:44:56There is no worry.
00:44:57God will care for us.
00:44:58And my mom?
00:45:01We'll pray for her.
00:45:04Everything Samuel
00:45:05left to the children,
00:45:07our children
00:45:08will be giving
00:45:08to his white family.
00:45:10Is that how God
00:45:11answers your prayers?
00:45:19After I have this baby,
00:45:21it would seem
00:45:22that I will have
00:45:22to attend a ball.
00:45:24Because I'll need
00:45:25to find someone
00:45:25to take care of us.
00:45:27I hope I look
00:45:28as bewitching
00:45:28as you were
00:45:30when I wear green.
00:45:34Are we taking
00:45:34all these bands?
00:45:36And this me too?
00:45:37Thank you, ma'am.
00:45:46Miss Henry.
00:45:47I came as soon
00:45:47as I heard.
00:45:48It's bad, Miss.
00:46:04She came too soon.
00:46:07Gonna die here
00:46:08in my arms
00:46:09and that'll be
00:46:10the end of this.
00:46:12I give up
00:46:13on your God.
00:46:14Papa?
00:46:15Is she here?
00:46:17Ask her.
00:46:18I don't want
00:46:19none of this.
00:46:19Bedtime that baby
00:46:20before she died.
00:46:22I can't baptize
00:46:24the child.
00:46:25I'll send
00:46:26for Father Rousselon,
00:46:27but she might die
00:46:28before then.
00:46:30There won't be time.
00:46:33Please, sister.
00:46:36Please.
00:46:53Heavenly Father,
00:46:55bless this water
00:46:56with your spirit
00:46:57and make it holy.
00:47:00What name
00:47:00do you give
00:47:01this child?
00:47:11I baptize you
00:47:13in the name
00:47:13of the Father
00:47:15and of the Son
00:47:17and of the Holy Ghost.
00:47:22She's safe now.
00:47:37Your baby has a chance
00:47:38to survive.
00:47:39You did the right thing.
00:47:40There wasn't time
00:47:41to ask for permission,
00:47:42was there?
00:47:44What if my prayers
00:47:45don't work?
00:47:46No, no.
00:47:47It was right.
00:47:48You changed the world
00:47:49for them tonight.
00:47:50Oh, Gerard,
00:47:51I felt it.
00:47:51I felt it.
00:47:52I really did.
00:47:53You changed the world
00:47:54for me.
00:47:58Do you know how much?
00:48:01You make me feel
00:48:03hope.
00:48:05You make me feel like
00:48:06I can make a difference.
00:48:09And yet,
00:48:12will you come with me
00:48:13to meet my parents?
00:48:17Yes.
00:48:19And we can be
00:48:21together
00:48:21forever?
00:48:25Yes.
00:48:41Oh,
00:48:42you're so beautiful.
00:48:45Cecilia,
00:48:46let me borrow her dress.
00:48:48Hey,
00:48:49I'm going to love you.
00:48:58Allez.
00:49:00Here.
00:49:16Get out of the way!
00:49:18Pardon me?
00:49:19Move!
00:49:21I can't get my...
00:49:24You have to move your hand.
00:49:30Any other people?
00:49:31I have some pain,
00:49:32cuss-
00:49:34Your people are so dedicated
00:49:36to making us feel
00:49:37inferior.
00:49:38Is this our day then?
00:49:41You poking me with daggers,
00:49:43me hanging my head?
00:49:46If a man insults me,
00:49:48there is no question
00:49:49of what I would do.
00:49:50I would oil my pistols
00:49:51and meet him at Twin Oaks.
00:49:52I know how to be brave for that.
00:49:54But this,
00:49:55it is like walking in a fog.
00:49:56There are no boundaries.
00:49:58The look on their faces,
00:50:00I wanted to hide from it.
00:50:03Henriette,
00:50:04I do not know
00:50:05how to be brave for this.
00:50:08I love you.
00:50:10I'm sorry.
00:50:14We'll both have to learn.
00:50:17I'll depend on you
00:50:18for strength in it.
00:50:20Perhaps we should spend
00:50:21some time alone
00:50:23before we fight more ghosts.
00:50:24Oh, but I put my dress on.
00:50:26I did my hair
00:50:27to meet your mamon.
00:50:29She's expecting us
00:50:30for dinner.
00:50:31Henriette,
00:50:33I am afraid.
00:50:36You did tell them.
00:50:42And they...
00:50:43They said, uh...
00:50:46They would treat you
00:50:47with kindness.
00:50:49Pity.
00:50:50Respect.
00:50:51Respect for you.
00:50:54Their stomachs
00:50:54will turn at the sight of me
00:50:55and then they'll
00:50:56wash their hands twice
00:50:56before I'm gone.
00:50:57I cannot protect you
00:50:59from that.
00:50:59I don't want to be protected.
00:51:01I want to be free of it.
00:51:05I'm sorry.
00:51:08You don't understand.
00:51:09You can't.
00:51:10Gerard, I do believe you.
00:51:11love me.
00:51:12But you can't make me
00:51:13disappear into your world.
00:51:19Henriette, please.
00:51:20No.
00:51:21Let me take you back.
00:51:35Henriette?
00:51:37I didn't recognize you.
00:51:41I used to hear the angels sing.
00:51:44I can't hear them anymore.
00:51:47They're still here.
00:51:50I'll see you at the funeral.
00:51:53What funeral?
00:51:56You haven't heard them.
00:52:00Heard what?
00:52:01Simone hemorrhaged
00:52:03in the night.
00:52:05She never woke up.
00:52:11They found her baby
00:52:12sleeping peacefully beside her.
00:52:15I heard what you did.
00:52:17I'm sure
00:52:18it gave her peace.
00:52:19No.

00:58:24I was silly the fever broke just an hour ago the quantum exchange was um
00:58:29I was trying something new the quinine had little to do with it
00:58:33But it was the medicine that saved her
00:58:39How many times have you given medicine to patients and lost them but without it
00:58:44Prayer saved her how can you believe that because it's true
00:58:50Your sister is well i do not care why it does not matter why this is wonderful and we can
00:58:56begin to plan again
00:58:59Henriette do not turn your back on us
00:59:02Not now i'm supposed to be here
00:59:05My my work is here we can do even more in france we can work openly perhaps build a hospital
00:59:11And you would not be accused of corrupting the slaves because there are no slaves we can heal bodies and
00:59:18spirits
00:59:19I prayed for the answers
00:59:21gerard
00:59:23I found out what god wants for me
00:59:26God has been calling me for a long time and I can't deny it
00:59:31I feel god is working through me
00:59:40You said you wanted an ordinary life a life with me
00:59:47I know
00:59:51We can't have it and so now there is nothing for me
00:59:57Here we cannot even marry
01:00:03What do you want from me
01:00:18Welcome
01:00:18Thank you sister
01:00:23These women are not sisters
01:00:25You must not call them that
01:00:28You deceive this parish with those costumes
01:00:33Thank you sister
01:00:37I'm sorry but this time you'll have to stop wearing them
01:00:41What am i to wear i've given everything away
01:00:44Oh gate
01:00:46Do you know what i see when i pray
01:00:48I see the virgin mary but her skin is brown
01:00:51The slaves and the jean de couleur need to know that god is their god too
01:00:55And we can't just tell them color needs to be seen with their own eyes
01:01:00God wants black faces working in his church
01:01:03Oh yet
01:01:04There are forces against you
01:01:07Powerful people who can ruin everything we've accomplished
01:01:11We need to go slow
01:01:13Are we intended to be frightened into submission?
01:01:17Marie
01:01:20You're crying
01:01:21The bishop has just banished me from the parish
01:01:23Banished
01:01:24Yes
01:01:25I'm being sent upriver to teach wealthy children on a plantation
01:01:29Apparently the wardens have pointed out that it's become illegal for integrated groups to work together
01:01:34And you knew about this?
01:01:39The bishop is forced to disband you
01:01:41So he's decided to play on the side of the masters
01:01:45They will also close the parish schools since slave children are being taught in the same room as whites
01:01:50I am next on their list
01:01:55I am next on their list
01:01:55This is going to stop
01:02:07As I see by your costume
01:02:11Obedience is not a virtue you put much store by
01:02:15Please your excellence
01:02:17Just hear an idea
01:02:20There's a house
01:02:23My friends and I have just enough money to buy it
01:02:27With donations there's a building next door that we can fix up and turn into a mother house
01:02:32You mean
01:02:33To build your own church now
01:02:36Complete
01:02:37With a convent
01:02:39And we need you to bless the endeavor
01:02:48As there are no colored religious orders
01:02:53I would be blessing only
01:02:55An act of your pride
01:02:59But you've seen their faces
01:03:00Those hungry souls that worship in our church
01:03:03You cannot say you are not moved
01:03:05Do you expect the Catholic Church of Louisiana to challenge the state
01:03:10To start a fire that could sweep away what they've left of their freedom
01:03:15But the reward would be greater than the risk
01:03:19Even if I believed you should be nuns
01:03:22It can take years to receive Rome's consideration
01:03:24And then the answer could well be no
01:03:26I cannot see how I can help you
01:03:29Perhaps you don't need to appear to be helping us
01:03:36This church serves a changing community
01:03:40Why, that sounds positively threatening
01:03:45I understand you have moved to block my appointment of Father Roussillon to the cathedral
01:03:51We will not continue to tolerate interference in church business
01:03:56I understand you filed a lawsuit against us
01:03:59Rather extreme reaction
01:04:02I thought you should know
01:04:03I also am connected with the courts down in the delta
01:04:07And I can assure you money will win out in the end
01:04:11And I can assure you the rape of a child is considered a sin
01:04:16Even in the delta
01:04:19There are no secrets in this parish
01:04:22What about baptizing a half-breed bastard child outside the church
01:04:27A warden of the church should be above reproach
01:04:32Especially when married to someone as pious as her wife
01:04:37But as I said
01:04:40The church is here to serve the whole community
01:04:45May I suggest instead we let them build a place of their own
01:04:50The coloreds?
01:04:52They'll never do it
01:04:54But we must let them build it
01:04:56And if they fail
01:04:58They fail on their own terms
01:05:01Because if they don't there's no telling what trouble they'll cause
01:05:04Your excellence
01:05:15Mama
01:05:17You're so thin
01:05:18I thought you promised me that you would eat
01:05:21And you
01:05:22You look like a nun
01:05:26You should wear more color
01:05:30Green
01:05:32It goes so well with your eyes
01:05:35Oh
01:05:38How we danced at the ball
01:05:41Your papa never danced with another woman after he waltzed with me
01:05:54Oh
01:05:55There's nothing to do
01:06:01Ah
01:06:02Oh
01:06:11Oh
01:06:13Oh
01:06:13Oh
01:06:20it's hard to imagine this as a convent at this rate it will take us years to raise enough money
01:06:25to fix it up we don't have years to waste to be an effective order we need a place to
01:06:31live
01:06:31an infirmary properly equipped a school what about your house sell my house
01:06:39well the cottage isn't mine to sell cecilia needs it to raise a family my parents worked
01:06:45themselves to death to leave that place to me am i mad to consider giving all that up in the
01:06:52name of
01:06:52god i think your parents would be proud to know their legacy is being used to serve the community
01:07:01julie we need to sever all of our attachments and gerard were you able to say goodbye so easily

01:11:39Is it not illegal for blacks to congregate?
01:11:41Yes, it is.
01:11:43Well, something will have to be done.
01:13:09What are you doing?
01:13:12Being a nun.
01:13:14Ah, that sense of humor again.
01:13:17Do you see the chapel?
01:13:18I say it hasn't been clean this week.
01:13:20No, we just finished...
01:13:22I'll return to inspect it.
01:13:25After dinner.
01:13:31Shall we just cut your tongue out and be over with it?
01:13:34Julie, what are we supposed to learn here?
01:13:36How to keep a conference spotless.
01:13:38We could be serving on the outside.
01:13:41Teaching.
01:13:42Scrab.
01:13:43Scrub.
01:13:44Scrub.
01:13:45Scrub.
01:13:45Scrub.
01:13:46Scrub.
01:13:47Would you like some help, Reverend Mother?
01:13:50Jesus washed the feet of his apostles.
01:14:20There's a pier.
01:14:21There he is.
01:14:41Oh, Reverend Mother, I'm sorry.
01:14:45There's something with these flowers at night that reminds me of my mother's perfume.
01:14:55Does it make you sad?
01:14:58When I was in office, I was too proud to admit my previous life still mattered for me.
01:15:03The more I pretended, the worse it felt.
01:15:06I worry that conquering my own pride is impossible.
01:15:10That's what the scrubbing is for, to help you sleep.
01:15:15Did you love someone?
01:15:20I thought so.
01:15:23I try to forget.
01:15:27I try to stop.
01:15:29Why?
01:15:31Do you think because you're becoming a nun you stop being a woman?
01:15:35You must bring all of yourself to service.
01:15:38It's your humanity which will give you compassion for those who most need to be saved.
01:15:46Good night, Shale.
01:15:48Good night, Reverend Mother.
01:16:04Father!
01:16:05It's yellow fever.
01:16:07So many are sick.
01:16:08I'm sorry but the infirmary is closed.
01:16:10Please, Father.
01:16:11The hospitals are full.
01:16:12They're even turning away white folks.
01:16:14Um, run to the St. Michael's convent.
01:16:17Tell Sister Henriette and Julie, tell them to come fast as they can run.
01:16:20Come on, your man.
01:16:29It's your sister Henriette.
01:16:31Hospital Fort, don't turn us away.
01:16:35Master Morgan, he sick bad with fever he needed in.
01:16:39Put him here on the table.
01:16:41I will pay for the bed.
01:16:43Mrs. Morgan, the beds are taken.
01:16:45Your money won't make a difference here.
01:16:48I can pay for anything you need.
01:16:50Your money can't even buy quinine.
01:16:52Only doctors can get it, and we don't have one here.
01:16:58I'll take care of her.
01:17:00There are more coming, white and black.
01:17:02Look at this. We need a miracle.
01:17:03Short of that, you must rest.
01:17:11I need more water.
01:17:15I need more water.
01:17:17Marie!
01:17:19Marie!
01:17:21Oh, Marie.
01:17:25I heard what's been happening here while I was on the plantation.
01:17:31Marie.
01:17:39Quinine?
01:17:40Oh, my goodness.
01:17:42Who could have sent you this much quinine?
01:17:46I need a doctor.
01:17:49My dear Henriette, you know my wish is to give you so much more than mere medicine.
01:17:54Whenever you are in need, look to your heart, and I will be there.
01:17:58Love, Gerald.
01:18:00Love, Gerald.
01:18:01God.
01:18:15Glad to have you measured.
01:18:15Happy heaven, Paul.

01:18:21Amen.

01:19:14Sister.
01:19:17I'm... I'm afraid.
01:19:21Sister, forgive me.
01:19:28I will pray for your forgiveness, Mr. Morgan.

01:21:30God help us.
01:21:33Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry.
01:21:41Let it burn.
01:21:43Yeah, let it burn.
01:21:44Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry.
01:22:02Julie!
01:22:02You are my hope, you are my life.
01:22:06I love you, and I will die for you.
01:22:11Whoa!
01:22:17Whoa!
01:22:29Hey!
01:22:30Hey!
01:22:32Hey!
01:22:33Hey!
01:22:33Give me that!
01:22:34Thank you, dude.
01:22:41Is this the other end?
01:22:43Jack!
01:22:47Julie, look at the angel goddess sent us.
01:23:23Juliet, rest. I'll help you, Sister Julie.
01:23:40Ah, Sister Henriette, you need funds.
01:23:46Let me look and see what's in the coffers of the diocese.
01:23:51Oh, thank you, Your Excellence.
01:23:56Thank you, my child.
01:24:06No, wait. Let it be.
01:24:09It will give everyone something to think about.
01:24:16Oh, no.
01:24:30Sister.
01:24:34Nasa's wife freed us this morning.
01:24:36She paid the fee for all of us, the entire household and the field slaves.
01:24:40Oh, God bless her.
01:24:42I always dreamt to this day.
01:24:45I figured my first day of freedom, I was going to sleep till I wake up.
01:24:49Then I was going to roll over and go back to sleep again.
01:24:54Instead, I got my life packed up, and I'm going to be on a riverboat by sundown.
01:24:59And that feels mighty fine.
01:25:01God bless you.
01:25:03Goodbye, Sister.
01:25:05And thank you for everything.
01:25:29And the community received a formal religious rule of life, adopted a habit, and pronounced their vows.
01:25:37They bought the old Orleans ballroom and converted it into a sanctuary for education and the needy.
01:25:43Today, they continue to service the poor, the sick, and the illiterate.
