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!
00:01:24Oh, 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.
00:01:43Silly.
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.
00:02:03Ma, Sherry?
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 quadril for you.
00:02:17Or, uh, the poker.
00:02:19Mm-hmm.
00:02:27Bonsoir, Jean-Baptiste.
00:02:29Bonsoir, Sherry.
00:02:31Aurillette.
00:02:31Late.
00:02:32On your sister's night.
00:02:34She 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...
00:03:04Only 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, chin 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...
00:03:48Seeley, every man there will watch you dance and wish you 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.
00:04:31月 où, la vie.
00:04:45Tschüss.
00:04:48Tent, et Gone.
00:05:01Amen.
00:05:03e go te patitio,
00:05:06e nomine patres,
00:05:09e filli,
00:05:11e spiritus sancti.
00:05:15Amen.
00:05:16Amen.
00:05:21My mom,
00:05:22Why 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.
00:05:41Aria, 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 promised 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 waiting at 150, ladies and gentlemen.
00:06:22150, 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, you know?
00:06:30300.
00:06:31300.
00:06:32Yes, sir.
00:06:32Yes, sir.
00:06:33325.
00:06:34325.
00:06:35Do I hear you?
00:06:36Yes, sir.
00:06:39Papa?
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.
00:07:34No, 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.
00:08:04What am I giving Marie now?
00:08:06Oh, she won't go hungry tonight, Julie.
00:08:09Oh, there she is.
00:08:10Marie!
00:08:14Oh, my God.
00:08:16Excuse me, sir.
00:08:17Would you mind something?
00:08:23No!
00:08:28Hello, ma'am.
00:08:29I'm coming.
00:08:32Let me help you.
00:08:34Look at that.
00:08:35Look at that.
00:08:36Oh, no.
00:08:37Oh, no.
00:08:37Look at that.
00:08:42Oh, no.
00:08:49Apparently, I missed the Delta waters more than I knew.
00:08:53Oh, thank you.
00:08:55So much trouble for such an old maid.
00:08:57Listen, 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 wash fobs.
00:09:14There are laws against Sasson.
00:09:16Come on.
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 Plainspeed 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 Gauthier.
00:09:52My parents have just taken up residence in a plantation up near Ponce-Train.
00:09:56Enchantée.
00:09:57I'm Marie Alicott.
00:09:58And these are my good friends, Julie Godin and Henriette Delisle.
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 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.
00:11:03Merci.
00:11:04Au revoir.
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 cataclysm 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.
00:11:54This 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.
00:12:14God 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.
00:12:49God knows.
00:12:51God knows.
00:12:53God knows.
00:13:18What 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.
00:13:31Do 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, Henri.
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?
00:14:32Oh, Samuel?
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.
00:14:56It's like the...
00:14:58Look.
00:14:59Rie, think 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.
00:15:27It 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,
00:16:38your papa
00:16:40has just ended our lives.
00:16:42Oh, papa, 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.
00:16:55Papa.
00:16:55Oh, 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.
00:17:28Let's go.
00:17:29We will be late if we don't hurry.
00:17:51We 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.
00:18:14Oh, the cross was spectacular.
00:18:23My name is Paul Cartier.
00:18:30I am so happy, mademoiselle.
00:18:35Shall we?
00:18:36What are you going to do?
00:19:11May I?
00:19:12I'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.
00:21:31Henriette.
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.
00:22:08You are just like him.
00:22:09You just get out.

00:26:46mhm
00:27:06jason
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
00:27:26Henriette
00:27:27She 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
00:27:44Of 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
00:28:11Well, 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
00:28:23It 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
00:28:31I want to save lives
00:28:33Oh, so you believe you're the healer
00:28:35That 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
00:28:43You broke her heart
00:28:46People do not die from broken hearts
00:28:48Maybe that is your vanity
00:28:51All I know is that
00:28:52If the spirit breaks
00:28:53So does the will
00:28:54You've both seen that
00:28:56You've also seen people fight to live
00:28:58And win
00:28:59I believe that's
00:29:01The true mystery of God
00:29:04No science can have the answer for that
00:29:07Ah, touche
00:29:09May 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
00:29:47In Paris
00:29:48Couples stare into each other's eyes
00:29:50During 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
00:30:14And if I am good
00:30:16He will love me forever

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
00:33:11The Ten Commandments
00:33:12I teach her that they apply
00:33:14To white people
00:33:15As well as black
00:33:18Are you sassing me?
00:33:21Adultery is a sin
00:33:23What the devil are you talking about
00:33:25Standing at my front door
00:33:26Preaching?
00:33:27Did your wife know
00:33:28That your mistress
00:33:29Is a twelve year old child?
00:33:32Simone's my slave
00:33:34Nothing more
00:33:35Simone is pregnant
00:33:37Frank
00:33:38What's the matter?
00:33:39What's she doing here?
00:33:40Just some half-alutin quadroon
00:33:42Confused about where she's at
00:33:43She's just leaving
00:33:44I was just leaving myself
00:33:46Monsieur Morgan
00:33:46I would be happy to see
00:33:47The young lady out
00:33:49Oh you will
00:33:49So you do know each other
00:33:51How about that?
00:33:54Madame Morgan
00:33:55Your hospitality was bewitching
00:33:57As always
00:33:57Merci beaucoup
00:33:58Who?
00:34:15What is the matter with you?
00:34:16Are you mad?
00:34:18Yes
00:34:20Perhaps not as mad as Maman
00:34:21But in my own small way
00:34:23Yes
00:34:23You dare to challenge
00:34:24A man of my class
00:34:25Do you even care
00:34:27To know what he did?
00:34:29Frank Morgan
00:34:29And his Americans
00:34:30Are making a new Louisiana
00:34:32They are the future
00:34:33My chère
00:34:33So you dine with them
00:34:35And you
00:34:35You sell to them
00:34:37You marry one of them
00:34:38And now you'll become
00:34:39One of them
00:34:41We must all survive
00:34:42My chère
00:34:46Memo always to hear
00:34:47From you every day
00:34:57May God help you
00:35:00And your kind
00:35:10Maria
00:35:22Allé
00:35:32Goodbye papa
00:35:45We've come for a visit
00:35:46Oh my

00:35:53She's finally fallen asleep
00:35:55I'm going to put her down
00:36:02Oh yet
00:36:03Please
00:36:04You're my sister
00:36:06This ridiculous law
00:36:07About covering
00:36:08Or braiding your hair
00:36:09Has no place
00:36:10Amongst family
00:36:12I am not your family
00:36:13Samuel
00:36:19Have I offended you
00:36:21In some way
00:36:22I will take care of you
00:36:23As my family
00:36:24I swear
00:36:25But you're not married
00:36:26To Cecilia
00:36:28You know
00:36:29It's only
00:36:29That the law
00:36:30Forbids it
00:36:32Have you presented
00:36:33My sister
00:36:33And your child
00:36:35To your parents
00:36:35My parents
00:36:36Are in Europe
00:36:37And I'm not close
00:36:38To my family here
00:36:40You know that
00:36:41Do they even know
00:36:42You have a daughter
00:36:43Any of them
00:36:44I cannot change
00:36:45The way things are
00:36:46Please Henriette
00:36:48Is it just
00:36:50Is it just
00:36:50The way things are
00:36:55This
00:36:55This Dr.
00:36:56Gerard
00:36:57Cecilia tells me
00:36:58That
00:36:58He will not be
00:36:59Taking care of me
00:37:00Either
00:37:00Oh
00:37:01I wasn't asking
00:37:02I wasn't asking
00:37:02I just thought
00:37:04Perhaps
00:37:05He has
00:37:06Introduced you
00:37:07To his parents
00:37:09Oh
00:37:10Well
00:37:11Perhaps
00:37:12When the time
00:37:13Comes
00:37:21I told master
00:37:23If he touch
00:37:24Again
00:37:24He best
00:37:26Kill me
00:37:28And leave
00:37:29Simone alone
00:37:29She going
00:37:31On and on
00:37:32About hope
00:37:33Any white church
00:37:35Selling hope
00:37:36Is selling lies
00:37:37Jacques
00:37:38Come on
00:37:38Sunday
00:37:40God's ways
00:37:41Are mysterious
00:37:42Sometimes
00:37:42But
00:37:43If you open
00:37:44Your heart
00:37:45And pray
00:37:45I believe
00:37:45Pray
00:37:46Pray
00:37:47Pray for what
00:37:49For things
00:37:50To get better
00:37:51I did that
00:37:52Already
00:37:53I guess
00:37:54Your God
00:37:55Must be having
00:37:55A joke
00:37:56With me
00:38:03He has a right
00:38:04To his anger
00:38:05Perhaps
00:38:06We can only
00:38:06He can heal
00:38:07His physical wounds
00:38:12I will not
00:38:12Give up on him
00:38:14Simone's way

00:58:00i'm
00:58:20You're going to pray for me, sister?
00:58:21With all my heart.
00:58:24How is she?
00:58:25The fever broke just an hour ago.
00:58:27Oh, the quinine mixture, it 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?
00:58:44Prayer saved her.
00:58:46How 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, do 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, perhaps build a hospital,
00:59:11and you would not be accused of corrupting the slaves.
00:59:15Because there are no slaves.
00:59:16We can heal bodies and spirits.
00:59:19I prayed for the answers, Gerard.
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.
00:59:45A life with me.
00:59:47I know.
00:59:51We can't have it.
00:59:53And so now there is nothing for me?
00:59:57Here, we cannot even marry.
01:00:02What do you want from me?
01:00:18Welcome.
01:00:18Thank you, sister.
01:00:23These women are not sisters.
01:00:26You 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?
01:00:42I've given everything away.
01:00:45Oh, Kate.
01:00:45Do 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 gens de couleur need to know that God is their God, too.
01:00:55And we can't just tell them.
01:00:57Color needs to be seen with their own eyes.
01:01:00God wants black faces working in his church.
01:01:03Henriette, there are forces against you.
01:01:07Powerful people who can ruin everything we've accomplished.
01:01:10We need to go slow.
01:01:12Oh, he intended to be frightened into submission?
01:01:17Marie?
01:01:19You're crying.
01:01:21The bishop has just banished me from the parish.
01:01:24Banished?
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.
01:01:55This is going to stop.
01:02:07As I see by your costume, obedience is not a virtue you put much store by.
01:02:15Please, your excellence, just hear an idea.
01:02:20There's a house.
01:02:22My 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.
01:02:33You mean to build your own church now?
01:02:37Complete?
01:02:38With a convent?
01:02:39And we need you to bless the endeavor.
01:02:49As there are no colored religious orders,
01:02:53I would be blessing only an act of your pride.
01:02:59But you've seen their faces.
01:03:01Those 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.
01:03:44I 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 I 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?
01:04:28A warden of the church should be above reproach.
01:04:32Especially one 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.
01:04:57And if they fail,
01:04:59they 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.
01:05:15My mom?
01:05:17You're so thin.
01:05:19I 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.
01:05:37How we danced at the ball.
01:05:41Your papa never danced with another woman
01:05:44after he walks with me.
01:05:54Oh!
01:06:20It's hard to imagine this as a convent.
01:06:23At this rate,
01:06:23it 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 effective order,
01:06:30we 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,
01:06:40the 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
01:06:58to serve the community.
01:07:01Julie,
01:07:02we need to sever all of our attachments.
01:07:04And Gerard,
01:07:06were you able to say goodbye so easily?
01:07:09Goodbye?
01:07:09Goodbye.
01:07:12I thought you knew.
01:07:15He's going back to France,
01:07:17Ray.
01:07:19Within a month.
01:07:21Huh?
01:07:48For 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,
01:08:00a teaching hospital,
01:08:01quite experimental.
01:08:03You make a wonderful teacher.
01:08:06Oh, yes.
01:08:08Why am I here?
01:08:11My reason?
01:08:13Our 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 boat.
01:08:22I apologize.
01:08:25And that was uncalled for.
01:08:29The truth is,
01:08:29I wanted to know whether you still...
01:08:31We'll always love you.
01:08:37My parents have cut me off
01:08:39for refusing to marry the suitable woman
01:08:43they have found.
01:08:45A year ago,
01:08:46I might have,
01:08:48but you changed me.
01:08:51So,
01:08:52now we both work for the poor.
01:08:56Alone.
01:08:58Apart.
01:09:00Gerard, 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.
01:09:28Oh, yes.
01:09:41It's official.
01:09:42The bishop says we can build a church
01:09:43if we can raise the funds.
01:09:45Right on, King Jesus.
01:09:48I love you.
01:09:49No one cannot deserve me.
01:09:52Right on, King Jesus.
01:09:55I love you.
01:09:55No one cannot deserve me.
01:09:58No one cannot deserve.
01:10:01In that breaking of morning,
01:10:05very well, very well.
01:10:07In that breaking of morning,
01:10:17I love you.
01:10:19I love you.
01:10:32Let's go, let's go!
01:11:02ini portae eternales et introhibit rex gloriae exce grucis signum, fuggiant fantasmata
01:11:12cupta!
01:11:13Hallelujah!
01:11:17Praise God!
01:11:39Is it not illegal for blacks to congregate?
01:11:42Yes, it is.
01:11:43Well, something will have to be done.
01:11:50Our first service.
01:11:52Giving out my house is worth it.
01:11:55We may not be nuns as yet, but the bishop will have to, at the very least, recognize our dedication.
01:12:00Um, the bishop has arranged for you to study as novices at St. Michael's.
01:12:05He feels you need experience living in a religious community.
01:12:08So the wardens got us out of their church, and the bishop...
01:12:12You will petition the Vatican upon your completion.
01:12:16In the meantime, he has appointed me to your church.
01:12:20He's a clever man.
01:12:22Our parish is very lucky to have you.
01:12:24I'm only disappointed we're suddenly so far from our goal.
01:12:28Rhi, remember Sister Martha when we were in school?
01:12:31No cross, no crown.
01:12:34We are going to see this through.
01:12:36Until the Pope himself invites us to Rome and says,
01:12:40You must be Sister Julie.
01:12:43I have heard so much about you.
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.
01:13:39We 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?
01:13:48Reverend Mother.
01:13:50Jesus washed the feet of his apostles.
01:13:55He's a girl here.
01:13:56Hear him.
01:13:56Go on, my Emerald Mary.
01:13:56I'm a doctor.
01:14:00Hear him.
01:14:01He's a girl here.
01:14:01No, my dear?
01:14:04There's a girl here.
01:14:08You're a girl.
01:14:20There's a girl here.
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?
01:15:21I 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.
01:16:15Run to the St. Michael's convent.
01:16:17Tell Sister Henriette and Julie.
01:16:18Tell them to come fast as they can run.
01:16:29So, Sister Henriette, hospital four, don't turn us away.
01:16:35Master Morgan, he's sick bad with fever.
01:16:38He needn't, didn't he?
01:16:39Put him here on the table.
01:16:41I will pay for a 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.
01:17:02We need a miracle.
01:17:03Short of that, you must rest.
01:17:08Amen.
01:17:10We need more water.
01:17:17Marie!
01:17:19Oh, Marieette.
01:17:21Oh, Marie.
01:17:24I heard what's been happening here while I was on the plantation.
01:17:30Marie.
01:17:32Oh, my goodness.
01:17:43Who could have sent you this much quinine?
01:17:46Oh, you doctor.
01:17:48My dear Henriette, you know my wish is to give you so much more than mere medicine.
01:17:53Whenever you are in need, look to your heart, and I will be there.
01:17:58Love, Gerald.
01:18:00Oh, my God.
01:18:28And my dear Henriette, I have been working for you.
01:18:29Mm-hmm.
01:18:49Please help him.
01:18:51Please.
01:18:53I'm so cold.
01:18:59Can you forgive me?
01:19:01I'll send for Father Ruslan.
01:19:13Sister.
01:19:17I'm afraid.
01:19:21Sister.
01:19:23Forgive me.
01:19:27I will pray for your forgiveness, Mr. Morgan.
01:19:45Father!
01:19:48Father!
01:19:49Father!
01:19:50They're coming to Merlin Church!
01:19:56Fire!
01:19:57Fire!
01:19:59Get everyone out!
01:20:01Fire!
01:20:02Get everyone out!
01:20:03All in!
01:20:04Get everyone out!
01:20:10Hurry!
01:20:10Hurry!
01:20:11Come on, Mike!
01:20:12Okay, hurry!
01:20:14Okay.
01:20:15We're going to the corner right there.
01:20:16We're going to the corner.
01:20:17I can't believe I've got to help you.
01:20:19I said, I can't believe I've got to help you.
01:20:21Come on to me.
01:20:23Let's go!
01:20:23Let's go!
01:20:24I suppose you brought the fires of hell right to your doorstep.
01:20:27You have to go now.
01:20:28Yes.
01:20:29Sister, help!
01:20:30Come on.
01:20:35We have to leave now.
01:20:50Everyone up.
01:20:51Come on.
01:20:58Where's everybody else?
01:21:03Julie!
01:21:04Oh, yes!
01:21:04Julie!

01:23:28Sister Julie.
01:23:40Ah, Sister Henriette, you need funds.
01:23:45Let me look and see what's in the coffers of the diocese.
01:23:51Oh, thank you, Your Excellence.
01:23:55Thank you, my child.
01:24:05No, wait. Let it be.
01:24:09It will give everyone something to think about.
01:24:30Sister.
01:24:34Moussa'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.
01:25:30Enriette's community received a formal religious rule of life,
01:25:34adopted a habit, and pronounced their vows.
01:25:36They bought the old Orleans ballroom and converted it into a sanctuary for education and the
01:25:42needy.
01:25:43Today, they continue to service the poor, the sick, and the illiterate.
01:26:08And they continue to service the poor, the sick, and the sick, and the sick, and the sick.
01:26:24And they continue to service the poor, the sick, and the sick, and the sick.
01:26:31And they continue to service the poor, the sick, and the sick, and the sick, and the sick.
01:27:01You
