Short filmTranscript
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.
00:01:05Merci.
00:01:09Au revoir.
00:01:13Au revoir.
00:01:24Oh, I'm late.
00:01:33Grandmama gave it to me, to wear on my night.
00:01:36For luck.
00:01:37It brought me love.
00:01:39It will bring you the same.
00:01:43See you, Lee.
00:01:45Papa, Mama has to finish my hair.
00:01:48I want you to show me those fancy new steps of yours.
00:01:51A reverse, likely, as a bird suddenly flies.
00:01:55So, one, two.
00:01:56I will fly like a bird, but I won't have a partner, if my hair's a bird's nest.
00:02:03Marcelle.
00:02:04Mm-hmm.
00:02:09Chin up, chin up.
00:02:10You don't need to see.
00:02:11You must trust your partner.
00:02:12Oh, I'd like to know where I'm going, Papa.
00:02:14Then you should not waltz.
00:02:16It is the quadrille for you.
00:02:17Or, uh, de poker.
00:02:27Good to see you, Jean-Baptiste.
00:02:29Good to see you, Shirley.
00:02:31Henriette, late.
00:02:32On your sister's night, she forgets everything else when she's in the classroom.
00:02:37Forgive me, Ceely.
00:02:38And will you forget next year, when 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

00:05:15Amen.
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 the school supplies and Julie and I promised to be there.
00:05:54You'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, you start the bidding.
00:06:19I'm bidding at 150.
00:06:21Do I hear 150? Yes, sir. Thank you.
00:06:24200, anyone? 200, 200, 200, 200.
00:06:27Yes, sir. Thank you very much.

00:06:34325. 325. Do I hear a good amount?
00:06:36Yes, sir.
00:06:39Papa?
00:06:45Were you addressing me?
00:06:47No, sir. I 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.
00:07:01Here's the bread we wanted for Marie.
00:07:04Henriette.
00:07:06Be right there.
00:07:24Would you like some?
00:07:27Give me that.
00:07:28Hey, do it.
00:07:30Give us some.
00:07:32Miss, let me do that for you.
00:07:34No, no.
00:07:37No.
00:07:37Miss, it ain't seeming.
00:07:41In a city like this, the masters do nothing?
00:07:45Look at them all.
00:07:46Miss, I guess you can't work like that.
00:07:49Henriette.
00:07:51Jacques!
00:07:53Get 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.
00:08:04What am I giving Marie now?
00:08:06Oh, she won't go hungry tonight, Julie.
00:08:09Oh, there she is.
00:08:10Marie!
00:08:13Oh, my God.
00:08:16Excuse me, sir.
00:08:17Would you mind something?
00:08:18Oh, my God!
00:08:23Mom!
00:08:28Hold on, ma'am.
00:08:29I'm coming.
00:08:34Look at him.
00:08:36Oh, no.
00:08:49Apparently, I missed the Delta waters more than I knew.
00:08:52Oh, thank you.
00:08:55So much trouble for such an old maid.
00:08:57Miss, I'd do it again.
00:08:59It'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.
00:09:11While the rest of you stood by checking your wash fobs.
00:09:14There are laws against Sasser.
00:09:18Better learn that for your own good.
00:09:24Jacques!
00:09:25Clean yourself up.
00:09:26I don't want people thinking that we dress you like that.
00:09:34Looks like Plainsbury and Sardin.
00:09:37How can you make me leave Charleston for this?
00:09:40Look at them, parading around.
00:09:43Give it time, dear.
00:09:44Things are going to change.
00:09:47Well, is anyone else for a swim?
00:09:49Allow me to introduce myself.
00:09:51I am Gerard Gautier.
00:09:52Hey, my parents have just taken up residence in their plantation up near Ponce-Train.
00:09:56Enchanté.
00:09:57I'm Marie Alicott, and these are my good friends, Julie Godin and Henriette DeLille.
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.
00:10:17But 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.
00:10:49Oh, only we shall steadfast belief and encourage my mom and was there.
00:10:57One, two, three, four.
00:11:00Excellent.
00:11:00That's it for today.
00:11:02Au revoir.
00:11:03Merci.
00:11:06Au revoir.
00:11:07Au revoir.
00:11:08Merci.
00:11:09Au revoir.
00:11:10Au revoir.
00:11:11Merci.
00:11:14Merci.
00:11:19I'm so glad we found you a parish, Father Rousselon.
00:11:22The cathedral seemed, well, full of foreigners.
00:11:24We're glad to find you, Mrs. Morgan, and to have your husband as a warden.
00:11:31A catacism class for girls this late?
00:11:35Very good, Simon.
00:11:41Slave children?
00:11:43Mrs. Morgan's slaves are God's children, too.
00:11:47We 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.
00:11:56Her 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.
00:12:04Very good.
00:12:05Teaching colors to read requires permission.
00:12:14God 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.
00:13:02God knows.
00:13:05God knows.
00:13:08God knows.
00:13:10Let's do it.
00:13:11God knows.
00:13:18Henriette, what is this I have heard?
00:13:20You are teaching slave children.
00:13:23Do you want to hurt your father?
00:13:25Do you realize he does business with their masters?
00:13:28And the sons of those masters will be attending your ball this week.
00:13:31Maman, about the ball.
00:13:32Do you want them laughing at you behind your back?
00:13:34Do you want them to wash their hands after they finish dancing with you?
00:13:40Henriette, I have asked you a question.
00:13:43Papa?
00:13:58No.
00:14:01You will not raid your heart for these white bastards to see.
00:14:16Come on, Henriette.
00:14:18She'll blame me if you're not ready.
00:14:20I hate this.
00:14:21You know how much I do.
00:14:24Maman was right about the green.
00:14:29You love him?
00:14:31Who?
00:14:32Samuel?
00:14:33Samuel?
00:14:34Yes.
00:14:35It is promised that we will be together until we're old and crutchy.
00:14:42But you can't marry, Ceiling.
00:14:43What difference does it make if he stays with me?
00:14:47God means us to be married till death parts us.
00:14:50To walk across a square openly as man and wife.
00:14:54Otherwise, we're just being bought.
00:14:56God, it's, it's, 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.
00:15:11Was I naive to believe in you?
00:15:13And I've kept my word.
00:15:14I help you raise the girls.
00:15:17Cecilia is taken care of, and now Henriette is well-placed, too.
00:15:20And me, Jean.
00:15:22Me!
00:15:23I must produce legitimate heirs.
00:15:26You knew that.
00:15:27It is something I must do.
00:15:37You will be ravishing.
00:15:39Every man there will hunger after you.
00:15:42And they will envy your gentleman, Paul Cartier,
00:15:45who has 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,
00:15:57will you see me?
00:16:01You are my beloved children,
00:16:03and 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,
00:16:39your 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
00:16:53where you and your wife might see us.
00:16:55Poupon.
00:16:56Oh, Jean-Baptiste.
00:16:58If 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.
00:17:28Let's go.
00:17:29We will be late if we don't hurry.
00:17:31We will be late if we don't hurry.
00:18:01Oh, there is no love here.
00:18:05This is what we do.
00:18:07We have no choices.
00:18:23I present you, Mr. Paul Cartier.
00:18:31I am happy, Mademoiselle.
00:18:35Shall we?
00:18:37Shall we?
00:18:38That's what it is.
00:19:11May I?
00:19:12I'm with that.
00:19:38I'm with that.
00:20:11Monsieur, you took me by surprise.
00:20:13Was there any other way?
00:20:16Monsieur Gautier, I have made previous arrangements for this one.
00:20:22But don't worry, there are plenty others to choose from.
00:20:26Shall we dance now?
00:20:29I've always understood that a lady could choose her partner.
00:20:34A lady?
00:20:35Monsieur, I am committed to a year's support.
00:20:38Retire.
00:20:40I'm sure your friends used to believe that you were a gentleman.
00:20:45Sir.
00:20:45I am sorry.
00:20:46Maybe I do not understand the way of things in America.
00:20:52Yet.
00:21:01So this is what's to come of my steadfast belief and encouragement, Gerard Gautier?
00:21:07You saved me.
00:21:08If you had not taken my hand, I would have been committed to a duel at the Orcs.
00:21:12I am sure of it.
00:21:14Some of the men that attend these balls are 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?
00:21:39Don'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.
00:22:13Get out of my house.
00:22:58Who's there?
00:23:01Ariette?
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.
00:23:18In God's house?
00:23:20Yes.
00:23:25Everyone's house.
00:23:38There you go.
00:23:41For you.
00:23:45For you.
00:23:49Oh, Marie will look at your leg over there.
00:23:55Henriette, may 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.
00:24:05I gave it up.
00:24:07Dr. Gauthier is trained in the most advanced medical science and he has come to help our set up the
00:24:11infirmary.
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 too many questions.
00:24:23In France, I shared a practice with my uncle, but my patients were so rich they could have hired God
00:24:30himself 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.
00:24:44Well, no, 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 and 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, I called at your cottage more than once.
00:25:01Your sister, Cecilia, is it?
00:25:03She would not give me any information even when I assured her that my intentions were honorable.
00:25:09She means well.
00:25:12I stay with Julie now.
00:25:15I, uh, I 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 Thiele?
00:25:30Miss Thiele?
00:25:32That's it?
00:25:32I'm all in bed.
00:25:33She tried to hurt herself.
00:25:35I finally got us settled in bed.
00:25:36She was a wild thing.
00:25:37She's screaming and running.
00:25:39Amelia, breathe here.
00:25:41Oh, my.
00:25:42My mom, she's screaming and running.
00:25:45I don't want to go get Henriette.
00:25:47I'm all in town.
00:25:57We'll see you tomorrow, Memo.
00:25:59Yeah, I'll bring you some pears.
00:26:01I would prefer if you waited a few days.
00:26:04She needs to settle in on her own.
00:26:11Have you seen my little Sasha?
00:26:12Have you seen my little Sasha?
00:26:14They took her, you know.
00:26:15Madam Dorsey, I'm sure these women know nothing about your little girl.
00:26:19Come now.
00:26:26Forgive me.
00:26:28My mom.
00:26:37Forgive me.
00:27:00much better, huh?
00:27:01That was brave of you, Jason.
00:27:02Mm-hmm.
00:27:04Here.
00:27:06Yeah, all better now.
00:27:07Off you go.
00:27:10I took the liberty of speaking with your mother's doctor.
00:27:15The night of the ball, I broke my mother's heart.
00:27:19I was too proud, too selfish.
00:27:21I couldn't see the pain of her life.
00:27:23I'll never forgive myself.
00:27:27Henriette, she will be well taken care of.
00:27:37What happened?
00:27:38Some white folk called them reading, sir.
00:27:40Reading?
00:27:41They say there's a new law.
00:27:43Every week they publish a new law in that journal.
00:27:45Of course, slaves are not allowed to read it.
00:27:47Excuse me.
00:28:00Imagine if you weren't here.
00:28:02My class make me feel so ashamed.
00:28:05My own class has slaves.
00:28:07People choose to be full of love or hate.
00:28:10It's not limited to class.
00:28:12Well, it seems mine has chosen eight.
00:28:14Well, he's in God's hands now.
00:28:18You asked me how I could give up healing.
00:28:22It is answers like that.
00:28:24It is in God's hands.
00:28:25It is God's will.
00:28:27God knows.
00:28:29It is not good enough.
00:28:30I'm a doctor.
00:28:32I want to save lives.
00:28:34Oh, so you believe you're the healer?
00:28:36That it's all up to you?
00:28:38That's pride.
00:28:39Vanity.
00:28:40Yet, uh, you blame yourself for your mother's illness.
00:28:44You broke her heart.
00:28:46People do not die from broken hearts.
00:28:49Maybe that is your vanity.
00:28:51All I know is that if the spirit breaks, so does the will.
00:28:54You've both seen that.
00:28:56You've also seen people fight to live and win.
00:28:59I believe that's the true mystery of God.
00:29:04No science can have the answer for that.
00:29:08Ah, touché.
00:29:24May I be so bold as to claim this tune as our own?
00:29:28Are you asking me to dance here?
00:29:30Is that a chaperone?
00:29:33Yes.
00:29:46In Paris, couples stare into each other's eyes during the waltz.
00:29:52I might get dizzy.
00:29:55I'll be a center.
00:29:57Make me your steel point.
00:30:11That is it.
00:30:12Oh, oh, for luck.
00:30:15And if I am good, he will love me forever.
00:30:24I must get ready.
00:30:28My gown is lilac.
00:30:30It has just arrived from Paris.
00:30:35See you tomorrow, my mom.
00:30:43Today was a good day?
00:30:45Yes, she was much better, thank you.
00:30:48Maybe we can take her home soon?
00:30:51You should know.
00:30:52She told me that she didn't have a home.
00:30:54It's ridiculous.
00:30:55Of course she is.
00:30:56For now, you must be thankful for the good days.
00:31:07Been sick of the stomach.
00:31:09Tired all the time.
00:31:10Master say she more trouble than she worth.
00:31:15Master have company.
00:31:17I supposed to be getting more whiskey.
00:31:19Instead, I'm here.
00:31:20Where's her mother?
00:31:22I don't know.
00:31:28Simon, it is time to tell us.
00:31:31It's nothing.
00:31:34Master say it was time to breed me.
00:31:36You're 12 years old.
00:31:40Breed you?
00:31:41Who he breed you with?
00:31:43He come in tonight.
00:31:45And he say, I'm a woman now.
00:31:57Jack, do not make it worse.
00:32:00Master going to free me so her baby can be free too.
00:32:05It's going to be all right.
00:32:16The same thing happened to her mother.
00:32:18And she wasn't all right.
00:32:29Henriette.
00:32:33Henriette.
00:32:34Where are you going?
00:32:36To put a stop to this.
00:32:39Henry, please, go for the moment.
00:32:41He's always been good.
00:32:44Oh, Miss Henriette.
00:32:46May I speak to your master, please?
00:32:47Well, he got company.
00:32:49Tell him it's an urgent matter.
00:32:51Well, what is it?
00:32:53Oh, you.
00:32:56One feet of niggers at the church.
00:32:58You want scraps?
00:32:59You ought to go around the kitchen.
00:33:01I've come about Simone.
00:33:02Simone.
00:33:04Simone.
00:33:05Out of a house full of guests.
00:33:07I'm her catechism teacher.
00:33:09The Lord's Prayer, the Ten Commandments.
00:33:12I teach her that they apply to white people as well as black.
00:33:18Are you sassing me?
00:33:21Adultery is a sin.
00:33:23What the devil are you talking about, standing at my front door, preaching?
00:33:27Did your wife know that your mistress is a 12-year-old child?
00:33:32Simone's my slave, nothing more.
00:33:35Simone is pregnant.
00:33:37Craig, what's the matter?
00:33:39What's she doing here?
00:33:40Just some half-alutin quadrant, confused about where she's at.
00:33:43She's just leaving.
00:33:44I was just leaving myself, Mr. Morgan.
00:33:46I would be happy to see the young lady out.
00:33:49Oh, you will, sir.
00:33:50You do know each other.
00:33:52How about that?
00:33:55Madame Morgan, your hospitality was bewitching, as always.
00:33:57Merci beaucoup.
00:34:00Merci beaucoup.
00:34:15What is the matter with you?
00:34:16Are you mad?
00:34:18Yes.
00:34:20Perhaps not as mad as Maman, but in my own small way, yes.
00:34:23You dare to challenge a man of my class!
00:34:25Do you even care to know what he did?
00:34:29Frank Morgan and his Americans are making a new Louisiana.
00:34:32They are the future, ma chère.
00:34:34So you dine with them and you sell to them?
00:34:37You marry one of them and now you'll become one of them?
00:34:41We must all survive, ma chère.
00:34:46There are more ways to hear from you every day.
00:34:57May God help you.
00:35:00And your kind.
00:35:10Maria?
00:35:23Goodbye, papa.
00:35:24Goodbye, papa.
00:35:35Goodbye, papa.
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, Yette, please.
00:36:04You're my sister.
00:36:05This ridiculous law about covering or braiding your hair
00:36:09has 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.
00:36:24I swear.
00:36:26But 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. Gérard, 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.
00:37:30Is she going on and on about hope?
00:37:34Any 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.
00:37:54I 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.
00:38:12I 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, Miss Dillian?
00:38:41That would be fine.
00:38:43You're willing to wait?
00:38:58You're willing to wait?
00:39:23Good 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.
00:39:41That is...
00:39:42What 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, the church, my school...
00:40:15We work together.
00:40:15Side 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 your wife?
00:40:30No, just to say that...
00:40:33Your wife...
00:40:35It's like a dream come true,
00:40:37but I can't.
00:40:37If it means I'm running away.
00:40:40Do 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 of them.
00:41:09Must be the rain.
00:41:26I must say, it's most encouraging.
00:41:29We have 20 more today.
00:41:30Welcome them and they will come.
00:41:32We're also working on the free families.
00:41:34Father, you stop bringing too many blacks in here.
00:41:36Collection plate's gonna get mighty bear
00:41:37because no white folks will be feeling it.
00:41:41All colors I've worshipped here together
00:41:43for generations, sir.
00:41:45Is that a fact?
00:41:46Well, maybe 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, Isis Sealy.
00:42:00Mr. Samuel, there's been an accident.
00:42:18Mr. Samuel's aunt's coming.
00:42:21Ma'am, the hearse is here.
00:42:22You have to leave.
00:42:23We haven't even paid our respects.
00:42:25Ma'am, I'm so sorry.
00:42:26I shouldn't have let you in in the first place.
00:42:28But I'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, I represent the wardens
00:42:52of Father Roussillon's church.
00:42:55Are you aware of what's been going on
00:42:56these last few months?
00:42:58Because it just keeps getting worse
00:43:00and all you do is nip at the edges.
00:43:18Children, children, come, come, come, come, come, come.
00:43:25Repeat.
00:43:26A, B, C.
00:43:32Etienne, why are these lay workers wearing habits?
00:43:37They donated their wardrobes to the needy
00:43:39and simply chose to dress in a uniform
00:43:41more practical for their work.
00:43:43The wardens want to put a stop to all this work.
00:43:48These women are bringing this parish to life.
00:43:51We must refuse.
00:43:52I have.
00:43:54For now.
00:43:56But it's rumored Rome will denounce slavery.
00:44:01Our position is precarious with the Americans.
00:44:04They want the school closed.
00:44:05They want you out.
00:44:07And I see you've started an infirmary.
00:44:15Many of those we helped return to Mass on Sunday.
00:44:19The church is filling up.
00:44:22With abandoned slaves.
00:44:28What they are doing is so clearly God's work.
00:44:32And we may not be able to protect them.
00:44:39Oh, oh, no, you, not this one, too.
00:44:42You can't give away your ball gown.
00:44:43That one more than any other.
00:44:45No, I'll keep it.
00:44:48You've been speaking with Betsy about freedom.
00:44:51You're giving away all your clothes.
00:44:52And next will be this cottage.
00:44:54And where will that leave 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 left to the children, our children, will be giving to his white family.
00:45:10Is that how God answers your prayers?
00:45:19After I have this baby, it would seem that I will have to attend a ball.
00:45:24Because I'll need to find someone to take care of us.
00:45:27I hope I look as bewitching as you were when I wear green.
00:45:34Are we taking all these, ma'am?
00:45:36And this me, too?
00:45:37Thank you, ma'am.
00:45:46Miss Henry.
00:45:47I came as soon as I heard.
00:45:48It's bad, Miss.
00:45:49Oh.
00:45:50Oh.
00:45:51Oh.
00:45:53Oh.
00:46:05She came too soon.
00:46:07Gonna die here in my arms.
00:46:09And that'll be the end of this.
00:46:12I give up on your God.
00:46:14Papa, is she here?
00:46:17Ask her.
00:46:18I don't want none of this.
00:46:19Bedtime my baby before she die.
00:46:22I can't baptize the child.
00:46:25I'll send for Father Roussillon, but she might die before then.
00:46:30There won't be time.
00:46:33Please, sister.
00:46:36Please.
00:46:39Please.
00:46:53Heavenly Father, bless this water with your spirit and make it holy.
00:47:00What name do you give this child?
00:47:03Not yet.
00:47:11I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
00:47:22She's safe now.
00:47:37Your baby has a chance to survive.
00:47:39You did the right thing.
00:47:40There wasn't time to ask for permission, was there?
00:47:44What if my prayers don't work?
00:47:46No, no.
00:47:47It was right.
00:47:48You changed the world for them tonight.
00:47:50Oh, Gerard, I felt it.
00:47:51I felt it.
00:47:52I really did.
00:47:53You changed the world for me.
00:47:58Do you know how much?
00:48:01You make me feel hope.
00:48:05You make me feel like I can make a difference.
00:48:09And yet, will you come with me to meet my parents?
00:48:16Yes.
00:48:18And we can be together forever?
00:48:25Yes.
00:48:42Oh, you're so beautiful.
00:48:44Oh, you're so beautiful.
00:48:45Cecilia, let me borrow her dress.
00:48:48Hey, I'm going to love you.
00:49:00Oh, you're so beautiful.
00:49:10I'm going to love you.
00:49:11Good.
00:49:18Cheers.
00:49:19Cheers.
00:49:19Move!
00:49:30Any other people?
00:49:31I have some pain.
00:49:34Your people are so dedicated to making us feel inferior.
00:49:38Is this our day then?
00:49:41You poking me with daggers, me hanging my head?
00:49:46If a man insults me, there is no question of what I would do.
00:49:50I would oil my pistols and meet them at Twin Oaks.
00:49:52I know how to be brave for that.
00:49:54But this, it is like walking in a fog.
00:49:56There are no boundaries.
00:49:58The look on their faces, I wanted to hide from it.
00:50:04Henriette, I do not know how 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 for strength in it.
00:50:20Oh, perhaps we should spend some time alone before we fight more ghosts.
00:50:24Oh, but I put my dress on.
00:50:26I did my hair to meet your mom.
00:50:29She's expecting us for dinner.
00:50:32Henriette, I am afraid.
00:50:36You did tell them.
00:50:42And they...
00:50:43They said they would treat you with kindness.
00:50:49Pity.
00:50:50Respect.
00:50:51Respect for you.
00:50:54Their stomachs will turn at the sight of me and then they'll wash their hands twice before I'm gone.
00:50:57I cannot protect you from that.
00:50:59I don't want to be protected.
00:51:01I want to be free of it.
00:51:05I'm sorry.
00:51:07You don't understand. You can't.
00:51:10Gerard, I do believe you love me.
00:51:12But you can't make me disappear 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.

00:57:04they say creoles don't get it but she got it
00:57:07there's an outbreak of yellow fever it can affect anyone
00:57:11my medical bag is here
00:57:13Gerard
00:57:14I'm
00:57:16I know
00:57:19I'm sorry
00:57:22me too
00:57:24it would be nice to have a conversation between us
00:57:26where one of us does not have to say how sorry we are
00:57:46the
00:57:47skin and solution is very effective in that
00:58:20you're gonna pray for me sister with all my heart
00:58:24I was silly the fever broke just an hour ago
00:58:27the quantum exchange was um I was trying something new
00:58:31the quinine had little to do with it
00:58:34but it was the medicine that saved her
00:58:39how many times have you given medicine to patients and lost them
00:58:42but without it
00:58:43prayer saved her
00:58:45how can you believe that
00:58:47because it's true
00:58:51your sister is well
00:58:52I do not care why
00:58:53it does not matter why
00:58:55this is wonderful and we can begin to plan again
00:58:59Henriette
00:58:59do not turn your back on us
00:59:02not now
00:59:03I'm supposed to be here
00:59:05my work is here
00:59:07but we can do even more in France
00:59:09we can work openly
00:59:10perhaps build a hospital
00:59:11and you would not be accused of corrupting the slaves
00:59:14because there are no slaves
00:59:16we can heal bodies and spirits
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
00:59:39you said you wanted
00:59:43an ordinary life
00:59:44a life with me
00:59:46I know
00:59:51we can't have it
00:59:53and so now there is nothing for me
00:59:57here
00:59:57we cannot even marry
01:00:03what
01:00:04do 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
01:00:27you deceive this parish with those costumes
01:00:33thank you sister
01:00:37I'm sorry
01:00:38but this time you'll have to stop wearing them
01:00:41well what am I to wear
01:00:42I've given everything away
01:00:44oh
01:00:45do you know what I see when I pray
01:00:48I see the Virgin Mary
01:00:49but her skin is brown
01:00:51the slaves and the Jean de Couleur
01:00:53need to know that God is their God too
01:00:54and we can't just tell them
01:00:56color needs to be seen with their own eyes
01:01:00God wants black faces working in his church
01:01:03Henriette
01:01:04there are forces against you
01:01:07powerful people who can ruin everything we've accomplished
01:01:10we need to go slow
01:01:12are we intended to be frightened into submission?
01:01:17Marie
01:01:20you're crying
01:01:20the 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 school since slave children are being taught in the same room as whites
01:01:50I am next on their list
01:01:54this is gonna 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
01:02:28there'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
01:03:21it 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
01:03:40wow that sounds positively threatening
01:03:44I understand you have moved to block my appointment of father roussillon to the cathedral
01:03:50we 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
01:04:06and 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 one married to someone as pious as her wife
01:04:36but as I said
01:04:40the church is here to serve the whole community
01:04:45may I suggest instead
01:04:47we 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
01:05:03there's no telling what trouble they'll cause
01:05:05your 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
01:05:44after he walks with me
01:05:54oh
01:05:55oh
01:05:57oh
01:06:01oh
01:06:02oh
01:06:20it's hard to imagine this as a convent
01:06:23at this rate it will take us years to raise enough money to fix it up
01:06:26we don't have years to waste
01:06:29to be an effective order we need a place to live
01:06:31an infirmary properly equipped
01:06:33a school
01:06:35what about your house
01:06:37sell my house
01:06:39well the cottage isn't mine to sell
01:06:42Cecilia needs it to raise a family
01:06:44my parents worked themselves to death
01:06:46to leave that place to me
01:06:48am I mad to consider giving all that up
01:06:51in the name of God
01:06:54I think your parents would be proud
01:06:56to know their legacy is being used to serve the community
01:07:01Julie
01:07:02Julie we need to sever all of our attachments
01:07:04and Gerard
01:07:05were you able to say goodbye so easily
01:07:09goodbye
01:07:12I thought you knew
01:07:15he's going back to France
01:07:17foi
01:07:19I'm putting him on a month
01:07:19found a monthľando
01:07:22a a
01:07:27e
01:07:29e
01:07:30e
01:07:31e
01:07:48For what?
01:07:50For coming.
01:07:51I wasn't sure you would.
01:07:56I've been offered a post at a hospital in Nice, a teaching hospital, quite experimental.
01:08:03You make a wonderful teacher.
01:08:06Or yet, why am I here?
01:08:11My reason, our church has run out of building funds.
01:08:16Is that all I am to you?
01:08:17No.
01:08:18You might as well have stayed at the ball.
01:08:21I apologize.
01:08:25And that was uncalled for.
01:08:29The truth is I wanted to know whether you still will.
01:08:31I mean, I always love you.
01:08:37My parents have cut me off for refusing to marry the suitable woman they have found.
01:08:45A year ago, I might have.
01:08:48But you changed me.
01:08:52So, now we both work for the poor.
01:08:56Alone.
01:08:58Apart.
01:09:00You're right, I'm sorry.
01:09:01Sorry.
01:09:03Is that why God made us twin souls?
01:09:06So we could be so unhappy.
01:09:10Such beautiful eyes.
01:09:22Oh, yes.
01:09:40Oh, yeah, it's official.
01:09:42The bishop says we can build a church if we can raise the funds.
01:10:00The bishop says we can build a church if we can raise the funds.
01:10:34The bishop says we can raise the funds.
01:10:36The bishop says we can raise the funds.
01:10:57A tollite portas principes mestras, et defamini portae eternales, et introhibit rex gloriae,

01:11:50our first service give me up my house is worth it we may not be nuns as yet but the
01:11:56bishop will have to
01:11:57at the very least recognize our dedication um the bishop has arranged for you to study as novices
01:12:04at saint michael's he feels you need experience living in a religious community so the wardens
01:12:09got us out of their church and the bishop you will petition the vatican upon your completion

01:23:50Oh, thank you, Your Excellency.
01:23:56Thank you, my child.
01:24:06No, wait.
01:24:07Let it be.
01:24:09It will give everyone something to think about.
01:24:12Let it be.
01:24:16Let it be.
01:24:27Let it be.
01:24:30Let it be.
01:24:39Let it be.
01:24:39Oh, 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.
01:24:50Then 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.
01:24:58And that feels mighty fine.
01:25:01God bless you.
01:25:03Goodbye, sister.
01:25:05And thank you for everything.
