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 and her world forever.
00:01:03Au revoir.
00:01:04Au revoir.
00:01:05Merci.
00:01:09Au revoir.
00:01:13Au revoir.
00:01:15Au 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, Leigh.
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.
00:02:03Marcella?
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.
00:02:14But then you should not waltz.
00:02:16It is the quadrille for you.
00:02:17Or, uh, de poker.
00:02:19Mm-hmm.
00:02:27Bonsoir, Jean-Baptiste.
00:02:29Bonsoir, Jean-Baptiste.
00:02:30Oh, Rien.
00:02:31Late.
00:02:32On your sister's night, she forgets everything else when she's in the classroom.
00:02:37Forgive me, Celie.
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.
00:02:50It will only upset her.
00:02:52I'm not going to say another word about it.
00:02:54It was so dull without you on Sunday dinner.
00:02:58Mama didn't need a thing.
00:03:01Well, I, um, only had to...
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.
00:03:27La.
00:03:28La.
00:03:28Chin up.
00:03:29Chin up.
00:03:33I know you will have a wonderful time, ma chere.
00:03:36You look beautiful.
00:03:37But you said you would attend with us.
00:03:38I wish I could, but unfortunately, I have important business.
00:03:43Bonsoir, mon amour.
00:03:44Bonsoir.
00:03:45But, papa, I...
00:03:48See, Lee, every man there will watch you dance and wish he were your partner.
00:03:51By the way, your bird's nest looks lovely.
00:03:54Mm-hmm.
00:03:55A bientot.
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.
00:04:40Thank you, Jean.
00:05:01Amelia, I welcome you in the name of the Father and the children of the Holy Spirit.
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 school supplies and Julie and I promise 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.
00:06:04No, I am my body.
00:06:14I will go and take my gym.
00:06:17I will try it and get out of the boat.
00:06:18I will see them.
00:06:18Now, we start the bidding.
00:06:19I'm bidding at 150 ladies.
00:06:21150.
00:06:22Do I hear 150?
00:06:23Yes, sir.
00:06:27Yes, sir. Thank you very much.
00:06:34325. 325.
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.
00:07:05Henriette!
00:07:06Be right there!
00:07:07Can I go to that for you?
00:07:24Would you like some?
00:07:27Give me that!
00:07:29Give me some!
00:07:32Miss, let me do that for you.
00:07:34No, no.
00:07:37Miss, it ain't seeming.
00:07:41In a city like this, the masters do nothing?
00:07:46Oh, yes. Can't work not that.
00:07:49Henriette.
00:07:51Jack!
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, Mel.
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!
00:08:16Excuse me, sir.
00:08:17Would you mind something?
00:08:18Oh, my God!
00:08:23Mal!
00:08:28Hold on, ma'am.
00:08:29I'm coming.
00:08:32Let me help you.
00:08:34Look at him.
00:08:36Oh, no.
00:08:37Oh, no.
00:08:39Oh, no.
00:08:42Oh, no.
00:08:43Oh, no.
00:08:43Oh, no.
00:08:44Oh, 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 me.
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.
00:09:11While the rest of you stood by checking your washclubs.
00:09:14There are laws against Sasser.
00:09:16Oh, my God.
00:09:18Oh, my God.
00:09:19Better 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 plain street in 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?
00:09:50Allow me to introduce myself.
00:09:51I am Gerard Gauthier.
00:09:52My parents have just taken up residence in a plantation of near Ponce-Train.
00:09:56Enchantée.
00:09:57I'm Marie Alicott, and these are my good friends Julie Godin and Henriette Delil.
00:10:02Well, welcome 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 sin.
00:10:31She'll understand.
00:10:34Ah, 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 steadfastly leave and encourage my mom when was there.
00:10:57One, two, three, four.
00:11:00Excellent.
00:11:00That's it for today.
00:11:02Au revoir. Merci.
00:11:06Au revoir.
00:11:07Au revoir.
00:11:08Merci.
00:11:09Au revoir.
00:11:10Au revoir.
00:11:16Take your seats.
00:11:18Merci, Mom.
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?
00:11:41Slave children?
00:11:43Mrs. Morgan 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.
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.
00:12:05Very 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.
00:12:30Henriette, 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?
00:12:46God knows.
00:12:49God 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.
00:13:31Memoir 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?
00:14:01You will not braid 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.
00:14:24My mom was right about the green.
00:14:29You love him?
00:14:31Who?
00:14:32Samuel?
00:14:34Yes.
00:14:36He's promised that we will be together until we're old and crutchy.
00:14:41But 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.
00:14:56It's like the...
00:14:58Look.
00:14:59Henriette.
00:15:00Think before you speak.
00:15:04What made you think things would be different with us?
00:15:08Jean-Baptiste.
00:15:09You 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.
00:15:18And 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.
00:15:26It is something I must do.
00:15:33Ah.
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, my mom?
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,
00:16:38your papa has just ended our lives.
00:16:42Oh, papa, don't be so dramatic.
00:16:45You can keep the slave and Lisa 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.
00:16:55Papa.
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.
00:17:34All right.
00:17:38Okay.
00:17:41I got a minute.
00:17:46Nice to meet you.
00:18:01There is no love here.
00:18:05This is what we do.
00:18:07We have no choices.
00:18:18This is what we do.
00:18:24I'm going to introduce you to Paul Cartier.
00:18:31I'm delighted, mademoiselle.
00:18:35Shall we?
00:19:11May I?
00:19:12May I?
00:19:12I'm with you.
00:19:18I'm with you.
00:20:09I'm with you.
00:20:12Monsieur, 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.
00:20:33A 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'm sorry, maybe I do not understand the way of things in America.
00:20:49I don't know, yet.
00:21:01So this is what's to come of my steadfast belief and encouragement?
00:21:06Gerard 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.
00:21:31Oh, 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.
00:22:14I have no refuse.
00:22:21I have no refuse.
00:22:28I have no refuse.
00:22:30All infuse.
00:22:39All infuse.
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 always will come here.
00:23:15In God's house.
00:23:18God's house?
00:23:20Yes.
00:23:24Everyone's house.
00:23:39There you go.
00:23:41For you.
00:23:45For you.
00:23:49Oh, Marie will look at your leg over there.
00:23:55Henriette, 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.
00:24:06I 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.
00:24:43Well, 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...
00:24:58I called it 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...
00:25:16I 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 Sealy?
00:25:30Miss Sealy!
00:25:31That's it?
00:25:32Memo 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, bring her home.
00:25:42Memo, she's screaming and running.
00:25:45I don't want to go get Henriette.
00:25:47I want her to tell her.
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.
00:26:10Have you seen my little Sasha?
00:26:12Have you seen my little Sasha?
00:26:14They took her, you know.
00:26:15Madame Dorsey, I'm sure these women know nothing about your little girl.
00:26:19Come now.
00:26:26Forgive me.
00:26:28Mama.
00:26:37Forgive me.
00:26:59Ah, much better, huh?
00:27:01That was brave of you, Jason.
00:27:02Mm-hmm.
00:27:04Here.
00:27:05Yeah, 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.
00:27:42Every 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 makes 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 aid.
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.
00:28:26It 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.
00:28:33Oh, 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.
00:29:23May 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 sinner.
00:29:57Make me a still point.
00:30:09Oh, that is it.
00:30:12Oh, oh, for luck.
00:30:15And if I am good, he will love me forever.
00:30:20Oh.
00:30:22Oh.
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, mamma.
00:30:43Today was a good day?
00:30:45Yes.
00:30:46She 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?
00:31:21I don't know.
00:31:25Simone.
00:31:29It is time to tell us.
00:31:31It's nothing.
00:31:34Master say we're 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.
00:31:49No!
00:31:57Jack, do not make it worse.
00:32:01Master going to free me so her baby can be free, too.
00:32:05He's going to be all right.
00:32:15The same thing happened to her mother.
00:32:18And she wasn't all right.
00:32:29Henriette.
00:32:33Henriette.
00:32:33Where are you going?
00:32:36To put a stop to this.
00:32:39Henriette's good for the moment.
00:32:41She'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, you ought to go around the kitchen.
00:33:00I'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 day were you talking about, standing at my front door, preaching?
00:33:27Does 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.
00:33:37Frank, what's the matter?
00:33:39What's she doing here?
00:33:40Just some half-alutin' quadroon, confused about where she's at.
00:33:43She's just leaving.
00:33:45I was just leaving myself, Monsieur 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.
00:34:15What 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!
00:34:26Do 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.
00:34:46Maman wants to hear from you every day.
00:34:57Maman wants to hear from you every day.
00:34:58May God help you.
00:35:00And your kind.
00:35:09Marie.
00:35:14Marie.
00:35:24Marie.
00:35:25Marie.
00:35:33Goodbye, Papa.
00:35:43Oh.
00:35:44Oh.
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.
00:36:03Please, 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.
00:36:24I 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.
00:36:37I'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.
00:37:00Oh, 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.
00:37:34Any white church selling hope is selling lies.
00:37:37Jacques, come on, Sunday.
00:37:40God's ways are mysterious sometimes, but...
00:37:43If you open your heart and pray, I'd believe you.
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, Mr. Lee?
00:38:41That would be fine.
00:38:42You're willing to wait?
00:39:11You're willing to wait?
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.
00:39:41That is...
00:39:42How was I thinking could come of this?
00:39:43Henriette.
00:39:44Listen.
00:39:45In front of all of these people, I ask you.
00:39:52Will you do me the honor of 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...
00:40:14We can work together.
00:40:15Side by side.
00:40:17A man and his wife in France without 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.
00:40:31Just to say that.
00:40:32Your wife.
00:40:35It's like a dream come true, but I can't.
00:40:38If 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 out there.
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 family.
00:41:33Father, you stop bringing too many blacks in here.
00:41:36Collection plate's going to get mighty bad.
00:41:37Because no white folks will be feeling it.
00:41:41All colors I've worshipped here together for generations, sir.
00:41:45Is that a fact?
00:41:46Well, maybe we better start having two services then, huh?
00:41:54Miss Henriette!
00:41:55That's it?
00:41:56Miss Henriette.
00:41:58You must come quick.
00:41:59Please, Isilie.
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.
00:42:50I represent the wardens of Father Roussillon's church.
00:42:54Are you aware of what's been going on these last few months?
00:42:58Because it just keeps getting worse, and all you do is nip at the edges.
00:43:18Children, children, come, come, come, come, come, come, come, come, come, come, repeat, A, B, C,
00:43:29A, B, C.
00:43:32Etienne, why are these lay workers wearing habits?
00:43:37They donated their wardrobes to the needy, and simply chose to dress in a uniform more 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. For now. But it's rumored Rome will denounce slavery. Our position is precarious with the Americans. They want
00:44:05the school closed. They want you out. And I see you've started an infirmary.
00:44:15Many of those we helped return to Mass on Sunday. The church is filling up. With abandoned slaves. What they
00:44:29are doing is so clearly God's work. And we may not be able to protect them.
00:44:39Oh. Oh no. Not this one too. You can't give away your ball gown. That one more than any other.
00:44:45No. I'll keep it.
00:44:48You've been speaking with Betsy about freedom. Giving away all your clothes. And next will be this cottage. And where
00:44:54will that leave me and my children?
00:44:56There is no worry. God will care for us. And 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 bands?
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.
00:46:05She 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?
00:46:15Is she here?
00:46:17Ask her.
00:46:18I don't want none of this.
00:46:19Bedtime that baby before she died.
00:46:22I can't baptize the child.
00:46:25I'll send for Father Rousselon, but she might die before then.
00:46:30There won't be time.
00:46:33Please, sister.
00:46:36Please.
00:46:39Please.
00:46:39Please.
00:46:40Please.
00:46:42Please.
00:46:43Please.
00:46:43Please.
00:46:44Please.
00:46:44Please.
00:46:46Please.
00:46:53Heavenly Father, bless this water with your spirit and make it holy.
00:47:00Emily, what name do you give this child?
00:47:03Henriette.
00:47:10Henriette?
00:47:12I baptize you in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost.
00:47:22She's safe now.
00:47:37The 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.
00:47:52I 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.
00:48:09Henriette, will you come with me to meet my parents?
00:48:17Yes.
00:48:18Yes.
00:48:19And we can be together forever?
00:48:24Yes.
00:48:42Oh, vous êtes très belle.
00:48:45Cecile, you let me borrow her dress.
00:48:48Hey, I'm going to love you.
00:48:59Oh
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.
00:50:19Oh, 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.
00:50:41And they 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.
00:51:09You 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.
00:51:37I 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.
00:51:59They heard what?
00:52:01Simone hemorrhaged in the night.
00:52:05She never woke up.

00:57:09it can affect anyone
00:57:11my medical bag is here
00:57:13Gerard
00:57:14I'm
00:57:15I 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
00:57:40the Lord is with me
00:57:43it's him
00:57:44our children
00:57:47canine solution is very effective in
00:57:49no
00:57:50bless me
00:57:53bless me
00:57:54bless me
00:57:54we have no blessing
00:57:56for if I were Jesus
00:57:58all of me
00:57:59I've come
00:58:01for Jesus
00:58:04amen
00:58:20you're going to pray for me sister
00:58:21with all my heart
00:58:24how is Celie
00:58:25the fever broke just an hour ago
00:58:27the quinine mixture
00:58:28it was um
00:58:30I 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
00:58:44saved 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
00:58:56and 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
00:59:28and I can't deny it
00:59:31I feel God is working through me
00:59:40you 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
01:00:29with 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 Kate
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
01:00:55and we can't just tell them
01:00:56color needs to be seen with their own eyes
01:01:00God wants black faces
01:01:02working in his church
01:01:03oh yet
01:01:04there are forces against you
01:01:07powerful people who can ruin
01:01:09everything we've accomplished
01:01:10we need to go slow
01:01:12are we intended to be frightened
01:01:14into submission?
01:01:17Marie
01:01:19you're crying
01:01:20the bishop has just banished me
01:01:23from the parish
01:01:23banished?
01:01:24yes
01:01:25I'm being sent upriver
01:01:27to teach wealthy children
01:01:28on a plantation
01:01:29apparently the wardens
01:01:30have pointed out
01:01:31that it's become illegal
01:01:31for integrated groups
01:01:32to work together
01:01:34and you knew about this?
01:01:39the bishop is forced
01:01:40to disband you
01:01:41so he's decided
01:01:42to play on the side
01:01:43of the masters
01:01:45they will also close
01:01:46the parish school
01:01:47since slave children
01:01:48are being taught
01:01:48in the same room as whites
01:01:50I am next on their list
01:01:55this has got to stop
01:02:07as I see by your costume
01:02:11obedience is not a virtue
01:02:13you put much store by
01:02:14please your excellence
01:02:17just hear an idea
01:02:20there's a house
01:02:22my friends and I
01:02:24have just enough money
01:02:25to buy it
01:02:27with donations
01:02:28there's a building
01:02:29next door
01:02:30that we can fix up
01:02:31and turn into a mother house
01:02:33you mean
01:02:33to build your own church
01:02:35now
01:02:36complete
01:02:37with a convent
01:02:39and we need you
01:02:41to bless the endeavor
01:02:49as there are no colored
01:02:50religious 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
01:03:02that worship in our church
01:03:03you cannot say
01:03:04you are not moved
01:03:05do you expect
01:03:06the catholic church
01:03:07of louisiana
01:03:08to challenge the state
01:03:10to start a fire
01:03:11that could sweep away
01:03:13what they've left
01:03:13of their freedom
01:03:15but the reward
01:03:16would be greater
01:03:17than the risk
01:03:19even if I believed
01:03:20you should be nuns
01:03:21it can take years
01:03:23to receive Rome's consideration
01:03:24and then the answer
01:03:25could well be no
01:03:26I cannot see
01:03:27how I can help you
01:03:29perhaps you don't need
01:03:30to appear to be
01:03:31helping us
01:03:36this church
01:03:38serves a changing community
01:03:40why that sounds
01:03:41positively threatening
01:03:44I understand
01:03:46you have moved
01:03:47to block my appointment
01:03:48of father
01:03:49to the cathedral
01:03:50we will not continue
01:03:53to tolerate interference
01:03:54in church business
01:03:56I understand
01:03:57you filed a lawsuit
01:03:58against us
01:03:59rather extreme reaction
01:04:02I thought you should know
01:04:03I also am connected
01:04:05with the courts
01:04:05down in the delta
01:04:06and I can assure you
01:04:08money will win out
01:04:10in the end
01:04:11and I can assure you
01:04:12the rape of a child
01:04:14is considered a sin
01:04:16even in the delta
01:04:19there are no secrets
01:04:21in this parish
01:04:22what about baptizing a half-breed
01:04:25bastard child
01:04:26outside the church
01:04:27a warden of the church
01:04:29should be
01:04:30above reproach
01:04:32especially one married
01:04:34to someone as pious
01:04:35as her wife
01:04:36but
01:04:37as I said
01:04:40the church is here
01:04:42to serve the whole community
01:04:45may I suggest instead
01:04:47we let them build
01:04:49a place of their own
01:04:50the coloreds
01:04:52they'll never do it
01:04:54but we must
01:04:55let 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
01:05:03what trouble they'll cause
01:05:04your excellence
01:05:15Mama
01:05:17you're so thin
01:05:18I
01:05:19I thought you promised me
01:05:21that 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
01:05:34with your eyes
01:05:36oh
01:05:38how we danced
01:05:39at the ball
01:05:41your papa never danced
01:05:43with another woman
01:05:44after he waltzed
01:05:45with me
01:05:54oh
01:05:55oh
01:05:57oh
01:05:57oh
01:05:58oh
01:05:59oh
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 in an effective order, we need a place to live.
01:06:31An infirmary, properly equipped, a 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 used it to raise a family.
01:06:44My parents worked themselves to death to 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, we need to sever all of our attachments.
01:07:04And Gerard, were you able to say goodbye so easily?
01:07:09Goodbye?
01:07:12I thought you knew.
01:07:15He's going back to France, Ray.
01:07:19He's been a month.
01:07:49For what?
01:07:50For coming.
01:07:52I 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.
01:08:06Henriette, 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?
01:08:17I, no.
01:08:18You might as well have stayed at the ball.
01:08:21I apologize.
01:08:25And that was uncalled for.
01:08:28The truth is I wanted to know whether you still...
01:08:31We always love you.
01:08:38My parents have cut me off for refusing to marry the suitable woman they have found.
01:08:44A year ago, I might have.
01:08:48But you changed me.
01:08:51So, 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.
01:09:08Became.
01:09:09With such beautiful eyes.
01:09:15Oh.
01:09:17Oh.
01:09:22Oh.
01:09:26Oh.
01:09:32Oh.
01:09:33Oh.
01:09:34Oh.
01:09:40Oh, yes, it's official.
01:09:42The bishop says we can build a church if we can raise the funds.
01:10:17The bishop says we can raise the funds.
01:10:58The bishop says we can raise the funds.
01:11:06The bishop says we can raise the funds.
01:11:39Is it not illegal for blacks to congregate?
01:11:42Yes, it is.
01:11:43Well, something will have to be done.
01:11:54The bishop says we can raise the funds.
01:12:08The bishop says we can raise the funds.
01:12:36The bishop says we can raise the funds.
01:12:46The bishop says we can raise the funds.
01:12:47The bishop says we can raise the funds.
01:13:13Ah, 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.
01:13:24After 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.
01:13:39We could be serving on the outside.
01:13:41Teaching.
01:13:42Scrub.
01:13:43Scrub.
01:13:44Scrub.
01:13:45Scrub.
01:13:46Scrub.
01:13:46Would you like some help, Reverend Mother?
01:13:50Jesus washed the feet of his apostles.
01:14:06Here we go.
01:14:38Here we go.
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.
01:16:00Good night.

01:23:40Ah, Sister, Henriette, you need funds. Let me look and see what's in the coffers of the diocese.
01:23:50Oh, thank you, Your Excellency.
01:23:56Thank you, my child.
01:24:06No, wait. Let it be.
01:24:09It will give everyone something to think about.
01:24:30Sister.
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.
01:24:50Then 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.
01:24:59And that feels mighty fine.
01:25:01God bless you.
01:25:03Goodbye, sister.
01:25:05And thank you for everything.
01:25:30Henriette's 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.
01:25:47Let it be.
01:25:58We'll go, ó
