00:03:10Do you promise and swear to take as your husband, Enrico Maria Riccardo Ettore della Scala?
00:03:19The response of your father is binding, Marquis Antonio De Simone?
00:03:23I promise he shall.
00:03:26Please join hands.
00:03:29And now, Don Luigi will bless this nuptial contract,
00:03:32which duly records the future marriage partner's rights of succession and inheritance.
00:03:40Oh, Juliet.
00:03:48Oh, Juliet.
00:03:50Oh, Juliet.
00:03:52Julian.
00:03:56It must be my father's men looking for me.
00:03:58Julian, it must be my father's men looking for me.
00:04:16No, it's worse.
00:04:18What could be worse than our being discovered?
00:04:21Getting put in the army.
00:04:23Come on.
00:04:28But you're not a soldier.
00:04:33What's the war to do with you?
00:04:34I could be recruited.
00:04:36Anyone my age.
00:04:43So, that must be why they want to hurry up my wedding to Enrico.
00:04:51You didn't tell me.
00:04:55I didn't want to spoil our moments together.
00:04:58We meet so rarely, Julie.
00:05:06Oh, my sweet love.
00:05:11I love you always, whatever happens to us.
00:05:14Why can't you manage to convince your father?
00:05:30You can't imagine how many times I've tried.
00:05:33You won't listen to me.
00:05:34He signed a contract when I was a baby, which promises my marriage to Enrico.
00:05:41He did, but you had nothing whatever to do with it.
00:05:44I'm his daughter.
00:05:46I'm expected to obey.
00:05:48Look, darling, my family and his have intended to join their properties and fiefs for years.
00:05:54Those dirty landlords.
00:05:56Don't say that, please.
00:06:10Well, then better the war.
00:06:15The war!
00:06:17God knows you've been a disappointment,
00:06:20but your refusal to marry the man to whom you are legally betrothed
00:06:24brings dishonour upon my name and your mother's.
00:06:29You have placed us in a humiliating position, both morally and legally.
00:06:33Uncovered yourself with ignominy.
00:06:36And don't think that I don't know that you've been meeting that peasant boy in secret.
00:06:40Well, you shall never marry him, I assure you.
00:06:45You may go.
00:06:54If you don't want your daughter to be completely ruined, there's only one remedy.
00:07:02Get her to a nunnery.
00:07:09For that I thank you.
00:07:11It'll look to the world as if we let Carmela reject it.
00:07:14If she puts on a veil as the bride of the Lord,
00:07:17no one can claim you're dishonoured.
00:07:47My name is Thomas Senior.
00:07:58I guard the gate to the outside.
00:08:00Here is the visitor's room.
00:08:02This is my lodging.
00:08:07Now take your leaves.
00:08:08You must go then, Marchioness.
00:08:10If we open the outside gate, we keep the cloister entrance closed.
00:08:14Mother, must I really separate myself from you?
00:08:30My family, my home, the fields, the flowers, the earth.
00:08:37From all the things I must love.
00:08:40My child, you must accept it.
00:08:47I'm sure you'll find a new life here in the service of our Lord
00:08:50and the happiness you deserve.
00:08:56May God keep you well.
00:09:10May God keep you long with it.
00:09:12Oh, my God.
00:09:38Oh, such a lot you've brought that you'll never need.
00:09:41Oh, but money, though, and any jewelry you may have,
00:09:46you'd better leave with me or you'll lose it.
00:09:48In the cloister, you have to give up anything of value.
00:09:52I'll protect it, if you'll entrust it to me.
00:09:57Why not?
00:09:58There's no reason to fear.
00:09:59Your jewels will be at your disposal always.
00:10:02There you go.
00:10:07There you go.
00:10:09There you go.
00:10:11There you go.
00:10:13Thank you when you speak to the others they have to be addressed a sister though not the superior
00:10:37she's addressed as mother thank you sister we welcome you
00:11:07she's pretty hmm I'll bet she's ugly without that dress we'll soon find out
00:11:19it is forbidden to stand apart in isolation without mother superior permission I deserve
00:11:39to fast repeat it perhaps she didn't hear I deserve to fast
00:12:09no you don't understand
00:12:22yeah
00:12:27yeah
00:14:03It must burn like the flame within your heart which burns without cease for Christ our Lord and Saviour.
00:14:09As you commit our rose to memory from morn till night.
00:14:33A novice has 30 days in which to learn the rules of our order by heart.
00:14:52I have to stay 30 days in this cellar?
00:15:07Yes.
00:15:11Here newcomers stay to pass the purifying test and shall be under supervision all the time.
00:15:15We allow what is needful for rest and prayers.
00:15:24Body cleansing and then nourishment which is in conformity with Franciscan vows of poverty and finally for their bodily needs.
00:15:34All that is needed is blessed in the Lord.
00:15:40The well are not tended but they that are ailing bring unto me the many evildoers that need curing.
00:15:47Thus saith the Apostle Matthew.
00:15:49And during this phase you must bear this passage in mind.
00:15:51The well are not tended but they that are ailing bring, bring unto me the many evildoers that need curing.
00:15:59The elder nuns will supervise you in turn.
00:16:09Never say a word to them even to answer a question.
00:16:14Seven times a day did I praise these saith the Prophet.
00:16:18With the Holy Number Seven we perform the duties of our office.
00:16:22At Lords, at Prime, at Tiers, at Sext, at Nun, at Vespers and at Compline.
00:16:27Every day at four in the morning the praises shall be recited.
00:16:46A dish of boiled beans once a day except Friday.
00:16:49The day of total abstinence.
00:16:57To refuse food is a grave act of disobedience because it is the bounty of our Lord.
00:17:07It is night, the hour of Compline.
00:17:24I am reduced to nothing and I am nothing, saith the Prophet.
00:17:28I am in thine eyes as a beast of the field but I am ever with thee.
00:17:32I am in thine eyes as a beast of the Lord.
00:17:34My God!
00:17:37I can't stand it!
00:17:41Oh my God!
00:17:45Have you no mercy on me!
00:17:47I want to die!
00:17:50I want to die!
00:17:54Let me out!
00:17:56Let me out!
00:17:58I will kill myself!
00:17:59Oh, please, someone.
00:18:01Oh, please, let me out.
00:18:04I beg of you.
00:18:06Whoever you are, sister,
00:18:07tell them I can't go off.
00:18:09I don't want to.
00:18:11Tell them I'm going stark, raving, man.
00:18:23This is a day of fasting.
00:18:25Have patience, sister.
00:18:26Tell me your name, sister.
00:18:30The elder nuns will supervise you in turn.
00:18:33Never say a word to them,
00:18:34even to answer a question.
00:18:36Today is the 15th day.
00:18:38Don't despair.
00:18:40The well are not tended, but the sick.
00:18:44Oh, Christ, I have sinned.
00:18:45Lord, help me.
00:18:59I have sinned.
00:19:00I have sinned.
00:19:00I have sinned.
00:19:01I have sinned.
00:19:02I have sinned.
00:19:02I have sinned.
00:19:02I have sinned.
00:19:03I have sinned.
00:19:04I have sinned.
00:19:04I have sinned.
00:19:04I have sinned.
00:19:05I have sinned.
00:19:05I have sinned.
00:19:06I have sinned.
00:19:06I have sinned.
00:19:06I have sinned.
00:19:07I have sinned.
00:19:07I have sinned.
00:19:08I have sinned.
00:19:08I have sinned.
00:19:08I have sinned.
00:19:09I have sinned.
00:19:09I have sinned.
00:19:10I have sinned.
00:19:10I have sinned.
00:19:11I have sinned.
00:19:12I have sinned.
00:19:12I have sinned.
00:19:13I have sinned.
00:19:13I have sinned.
00:19:14I have sinned.
00:19:15I have sinned.
00:19:59I'm Elizabeth.
00:20:19The isolation period is horrible.
00:20:21We've all gone through it.
00:20:23Beatrice and Michaela, two novices like you.
00:20:25What did I tell you?
00:20:27She's ugly.
00:20:27Your name is Carmela, isn't it?
00:20:30Yes.
00:20:32Sister.
00:20:32You'll soon be all right.
00:20:34Living here isn't as bad as it seems.
00:20:36You only need to find the right friend.
00:20:41Stay away from Sister Philomena, for example.
00:20:44She's a spy.
00:20:46She had Sister Chiara punished.
00:20:49There she is over there, tied to the tree.
00:20:51Don't even speak to Sister Philomena if you can help it.
00:20:57And don't ever trust her.
00:20:59You need my advice.
00:21:01Above all, don't trust the mother superior.
00:21:03She seems sincere, but she's a hypocrite and a liar.
00:21:07Here she comes.
00:21:08I'm your mother superior.
00:21:37How do you feel now?
00:21:39Better, I hope.
00:21:41You'll soon be happy in your new life.
00:21:43Would you like to be called Sister Agnes?
00:21:45Sister Agnes of the infant Jesus.
00:21:49You may go.
00:21:50Mother, I don't think I have enough faith.
00:22:09Don't tire yourself.
00:22:11We have plenty of time to talk.
00:22:15I'm here because my father...
00:22:16I understand.
00:22:18Try not to cry.
00:22:21Just trust me.
00:22:23You are part of a new family now.
00:22:26A much bigger family.
00:22:27And you'll have lots of sisters.
00:22:32Some of them, unfortunately, are not as good as others, but...
00:22:36I'll look after you.
00:22:39I'll be on you, Mother.
00:22:41And I'll follow your steps, one by one.
00:22:45Just as if you're beginning to walk.
00:22:46This will be your cell.
00:23:06The new arrivals always ask where their dowries have gone.
00:23:10Yes.
00:23:11They are sent to the church, on which our convent is dependent.
00:23:14They feed so many mouths.
00:23:16Do you see much charity in making your arrivals feel uncomfortable?
00:23:22Are you envious of youth?
00:23:25Come, let me help you.
00:23:26The first time, you needn't wear it so tight.
00:23:45You're looking for a mirror.
00:23:47The rose forbid it.
00:23:49But I'll look at you.
00:23:51And I see that you're beautiful.
00:23:55But you mustn't be vain.
00:23:56Vanity is a sin.
00:23:59But one that's not too serious.
00:24:18Carmela.
00:24:22That's Sister Lucia.
00:24:24You tried to defend her when you first arrived.
00:24:26Remember?
00:24:28But you weren't there.
00:24:32No, but I saw you.
00:24:34It was then I decided you would become my friend.
00:24:37You're very kind, Sister.
00:24:41However, whatever you do for Sister Lucia is wasted.
00:24:43She's lost her mind.
00:24:44There are roads that seem straight, but they lead down to the fires of hell.
00:24:58For what crime can one be expelled from the convent?
00:25:05How naive you are.
00:25:08Now.
00:25:09You only leave here when you're dead.
00:25:13However, another way can be arranged.
00:25:16You will learn it from me.
00:25:17I got the Kings and the Father but I'm saying, wasn't my foe?
00:25:20I don't know I'm writing to it for full years and 42 years.
00:25:21But at least I was wrong.
00:25:37And because of my heart, my heart must have been outside.
00:25:40Oh, my God.
00:25:51I just went out that bed blind last night.
00:26:05Oh, my God.
00:26:35Well, as Lorenzo the Magnificent said, you never can be sure about tomorrow.
00:26:43He's right, especially with women.
00:26:46You don't have very much respect for women, do you?
00:26:48On the contrary, I find they're delightful, though their constant desire to catch the male is so transparent in every gesture that sometimes they're boring.
00:26:57Well, I can't say I find them boring. They readily come out to parties, to the theatre, to the country with me.
00:27:07But it's quite another thing whenever I try staying alone with them.
00:27:11You should never appear to try, my friend. You use the wrong method.
00:27:16Come on, let's have a cold plunge.
00:27:21Don Diego, I understand you even have a cloistered nun in your collection of women.
00:27:29Well, that's quite a claim.
00:27:32Love needs a touch of spice to make it more appetizing.
00:27:36I imagine that a cloistered nun bound to abstinence must be very peppery.
00:27:46They're delicious, my friend.
00:28:06Have you been paid?
00:28:21Oh, yes.
00:28:22Oh, yes.
00:28:36Oh, yes.
00:29:05Elizabeth.
00:29:26Diego.
00:29:35My, you look beautiful.
00:29:42I imagine your absence from me frightens you, just like at first, huh?
00:29:48As a love nest, it leaves much to be desired.
00:30:01I find it very exciting.
00:30:04Your apparent calm excites me even more.
00:30:10I am calm.
00:30:12No.
00:30:13You are a particularly beautiful woman, and no beautiful woman can be calm.
00:30:18It's the waves that make the sea so suggestive, and its dark depths exciting and mysterious.
00:30:28I'm not just any woman.
00:30:31That's true.
00:30:34What's that bell where they were looking for you?
00:30:37No.
00:30:38It's the call to evening prayers, which each of us recites in her own cell.
00:30:52And instead of praying, what does a nun really do in herself?
00:31:00Sometimes she receives other nuns.
00:31:09I've always found intimacy between women.
00:31:13It's the best stimulant love can have.
00:31:17And, uh, what do you do?
00:31:24We kiss.
00:31:27We kiss.
00:31:28We kiss.
00:31:31We kiss.
00:31:31Like this.
00:31:57In secret.
00:32:01So no one will know.
00:32:03Is that what you wanted to hear?
00:32:07What else?
00:32:10We caress each other.
00:32:31Mother Superior prepares us spiritually for confession.
00:32:41It's one of our rules.
00:32:43Remember, don't trust her.
00:32:55I know the rules are severe.
00:33:09It's up to us to make them bearable.
00:33:13To make them a part of our daily lives.
00:33:19None of us is born with the vacation.
00:33:25But I believe that, I believe that in the depths of our souls, there's a small flame that we can build bit by bit, day by day, until we grow to accept this life of penitence.
00:33:43This life of penitence, to which our Lord has called us.
00:33:58Here, far from the outside world, we live each day more intensely.
00:34:08But don't be sad.
00:34:10I'd like to see your eyes always joyful.
00:34:14I'll help you erase the memories.
00:34:18I see them, you know, in your eyes.
00:34:22But it's you, with your sweetness, you make the memories beautiful.
00:34:32The world outside is so cruel.
00:34:38You know that well.
00:34:42I need your affection.
00:34:44May I kiss your cheek?
00:34:52Father, during the night, such awful visions I had of hell.
00:34:56I dreamt I burnt my hands over the flames.
00:35:00Well, as long as you don't do it during the day in the kitchen, sister, you have nothing to fear, I would say.
00:35:08But perhaps this dream may have been a warning to you, and not just a figment of your imagination.
00:35:14Sister, what sins have your hands committed?
00:35:24Well, I must save that question to be answered later, when I confess you.
00:35:44Yesterday, I stole the ball, Father, and buried it in the garden.
00:35:52Sometimes the temptation to steal is so strong.
00:35:55A demon is tempting you to sin.
00:35:58You must exorcise this demon. He is a tool of the devil.
00:36:05Punish your hands to be saved.
00:36:08Otherwise, I cannot grant you absolution.
00:36:14It's your turn.
00:36:27It's your turn.
00:36:44Until next time.
00:37:02You are listening.
00:37:09Did he ask you where you put your hands?
00:37:11How do you know?
00:37:12He asked everyone. It's an obsession.
00:37:42Sister. Sister Elizabeth. It's Carmela. I'm afraid. What are those screams?
00:37:58Don't worry. It's Sister Lucia, the mad one who's screaming.
00:38:03Every so often she does it and then she comes down. We all ignore it. Now go back to your cell.
00:38:12It is forbidden to leave one's own cell at night. I deserve corporal punishment.
00:38:34It is forbidden to leave one's own cell at night. I deserve corporal punishment.
00:38:42For more information, just forget to subscribe and leave.
00:38:46Bye!
00:39:48She's only a novice.
00:40:08Let us pray.
00:40:17Untie her.
00:40:29Untie her.
00:40:31Untie her.
00:40:43Untie her.
00:40:55Why did you not come to me if you were afraid?
00:41:16You must trust me.
00:41:21I still love you.
00:41:26Oh, honey.
00:41:33I don't know.
00:41:35Oh, my God.
00:41:38Oh, my God.
00:41:47Oh, my God.
00:41:48Oh, my God.
00:41:52Oh, my God.
00:41:56Poor Sister Lucia.
00:41:58Buried in unconsecrated ground like a dog.
00:42:02Oh, I'm sure our Lord in his infinite goodness and wisdom will have mercy on her on the day of judgment.
00:42:09She never wanted to become a nun.
00:42:12That's what made her lose her mind.
00:42:14Her mind was possessed by a demon.
00:42:18Otherwise, Sister Lucia might have lived to be a perfect nun, as few nuns are, if the truth be told.
00:42:25She had many good qualities, but she was weak, and the devil laid his hands on her. Good was overcome by evil.
00:42:55Oh, my God.
00:43:17I know you're not able to resist.
00:43:19That's why I invited you.
00:43:21You see, we lack nothing here.
00:43:24Not even the mother's superiors, Le Cor.
00:43:28Sister Chiara punishes herself for what she does with her hands.
00:43:31It's her penance.
00:43:33How does it make you feel?
00:43:36I don't know.
00:43:38There are some things that are hard to put into words.
00:43:40So true.
00:43:41There are thoughts that remain inside of us.
00:43:43It takes another person to be aware of them.
00:43:46We've been waiting for you to drink.
00:43:48You're the guest of honor.
00:43:50Let me see.
00:43:53Oh, it's gorgeous, really.
00:43:56Hello.
00:43:57Do you like them?
00:44:02Oh, try them on.
00:44:04Do you like them?
00:44:11Try them on.
00:44:16Mine's not here.
00:44:18Pick out something else you like.
00:44:19It's more amusing.
00:44:21Look at yourself, Carmela.
00:44:23You're still a woman.
00:44:24Let's try some powder.
00:44:35Hold my hand.
00:44:37I'm going to have a...
00:44:39I'm going to have a...
00:44:41Menace.
00:44:42I love surgery.
00:44:43Oh, my God.
00:44:45Yes, please.
00:44:47Oh, you two, please.
00:44:49Give me.
00:44:52Yes, sir.
00:44:53Oh
00:44:58What's wrong
00:45:01It reminds me of home
00:45:06My birthday party
00:45:12Young boys and girls having a good time. I
00:45:18Was perfectly happy
00:45:23Oh
00:45:28But here there are no boys
00:45:31I've been waiting to speak with you for months. I
00:45:35Know that now you are leaving
00:45:37But first I must open my heart to you. I have loved you in secret, sir. I hope you love me, too
00:45:53I'll start I thought it was all over that you no longer loved me
00:46:06You say how could you think that how could you think that a bit more warmth, please? It's not true. That's better
00:46:13So you still belong to me. Oh
00:46:15Certainly you have never betrayed me. No
00:46:19Come to my arms like you used to
00:46:23But what do you want your body?
00:46:29Haven't you come here to offer yourself to me? I
00:46:32Didn't expect to
00:46:35Do you love another person
00:46:42We have to leave that says to read a signal
00:46:59The game is over take off your traveling dress we'll elope together another time
00:47:12You
00:47:14So, let's get started.
00:47:44So, let's get started.
00:48:14May I see your work?
00:48:22Do you no longer stand when you're spoken to?
00:48:24You obviously didn't sleep very well last night.
00:48:33You weren't able to concentrate.
00:48:35Your work isn't up to its usual standard.
00:48:38I feel it is.
00:48:39I'm the one to decide.
00:48:41I know that all too well.
00:48:42For your behaviour, you will be punished.
00:48:47I know that all the time is done.
00:51:03Why?
00:51:06I had a slight annoyance.
00:51:10You are a knight?
00:51:15With your mother's affair, yeah?
00:51:18Yes.
00:51:20You're a rival.
00:51:23You're in love?
00:51:24Yes.
00:51:27No, there's no need to stand.
00:51:55I didn't come to give you orders.
00:51:57I'm, I'm so alone, you, you can't imagine how great my solitude is, closed in my tower
00:52:08of authority, I'm more a prisoner than all the others, please, oh, I need a little human
00:52:18warmth, a little love, here we have, we have love of prayer.
00:52:27Divine love, love of God, and, and I do love God, but it doesn't erase the fact that I have
00:52:41this desire for another human being, you, you're the only pure one here, and I'm so desperate.
00:52:53Leave.
00:52:54Leave.
00:52:55I beg you, mother, leave.
00:53:00It's I who beg you.
00:53:04Look at me.
00:53:05Please, just one more time, and I'll go away.
00:53:11Just one more time, and I'll go away.
00:53:18I've hurt you.
00:53:19Forgive me.
00:53:20But it's nothing, nothing to the hurt that you've caused me.
00:53:25I'm becoming attached to you.
00:53:26I'm becoming attached to you.
00:53:27I'm becoming attached to you.
00:53:28I'm becoming attached to you.
00:53:29I'm becoming attached to you.
00:53:34Elizabeth, I can help you to get free.
00:53:35I'll keep you in my villa.
00:53:36I'll keep you in my villa.
00:53:37I'm becoming attached to you.
00:53:41I'm becoming attached to you.
00:53:42I'm becoming attached to you.
00:53:43I'm becoming attached to you.
00:53:48Elizabeth, I can help you to get free.
00:53:49I'll keep you in my villa.
00:53:53Another convent?
00:53:54I'll keep you in my villa.
00:53:55I'll keep you in my villa.
00:54:00Another convent?
00:54:01No, thank you.
00:54:02I prefer to see you here.
00:54:03It's more exciting.
00:54:07I've come to fancy life in the convent.
00:54:10I don't know what to do.
00:54:13I can help you to get free.
00:54:14I'll keep you in my villa.
00:54:16Another convent?
00:54:17No, thank you.
00:54:18I prefer to see you here.
00:54:19It's more exciting.
00:54:21I've come to fancy life in the convent.
00:54:29After all, one can find affection there, too.
00:54:34Let's not talk anymore.
00:54:59Carmela Maria Rosa, answer with purity of mind and in full freedom of conscience.
00:55:18I shall.
00:55:19Do you come here of your own free will to swear before God?
00:55:24To consecrate your chastity, your poverty and obedience, child?
00:55:29I do not.
00:55:38Yes, my daughter, you consecrate your chastity, poverty and your obedience to God.
00:55:52Your Grace, you ask me to swear chastity, poverty and obedience before God.
00:55:58I understand you perfectly.
00:56:00And my answer is no.
00:56:02I can't deceive God in this way.
00:56:05Above all, I appeal to my father and mother.
00:56:10Beatrice Maria Rolanda, will you answer with purity of mind and in full freedom of conscience?
00:56:25Yes, I shall.
00:56:27This is our last meeting.
00:56:29I have no desire to see you again.
00:56:31Of course, I've realized it's a minor cross for you to bear.
00:56:35And I've ordered your mother and your brothers and your sisters never to see you again.
00:56:43Your filial loving kindness and obedient nature, of which so many happy displays are token, will help you to bear this cross too, I have no doubt.
00:56:53You're not only a disappointment to your family, but a disappointment here.
00:56:58I say you are a changeling.
00:57:00You're no flesh of mine.
00:57:02You cause me more pain than any of my children, perhaps because I had such high hopes for you.
00:57:08But you're not my child.
00:57:11For me, you were born dead.
00:57:15You were born dead.
00:57:17Keep in mind there.
00:57:20Move up.
00:57:22Move right.
00:57:25Come on now, move along.
00:57:41Move along.
00:57:42Move along.
00:57:43Move along.
00:57:44Move along.
00:57:45Move along.
00:57:46Move along.
00:57:47Move along.
00:57:48Move along.
00:57:49Move along.
00:57:50Move along.
00:57:51Move along.
00:57:52Move along.
00:57:53Move along.
00:57:54Move along.

00:58:06Move along.
00:58:07Be not wise in your own conceits.
00:58:16Repay no one with evil for evil, but with good in the sight of all.
00:58:20From St Paul's epistle to the Romans.
00:58:22Now let us pray for our soldiers.
00:58:25For the allied flag of the Holy Roman Church.
00:58:28For the arms that defend our Christianity.
00:58:32For our victory.
00:58:34In the name of the Father, the Son, the Holy Ghost.
00:58:36Amen.
00:58:37Oh, Julian's here.
00:58:59Oh, but what can I do?
00:59:02It's been a year since the last time I saw him.
00:59:05Before I came here.
00:59:07But I love him.
00:59:09You understand.
00:59:14You must see him.
00:59:17But sister, how?
00:59:19Can I trust sister Rita or sister Thomasina?
00:59:23It's better not to.
00:59:26Trust me.
00:59:27I'll think about your meeting.
00:59:32And how to avoid the danger of being discovered.
00:59:36Oh, sister Elizabeth.
00:59:37Do you mean it?
00:59:40Will you really do it for me?
00:59:43Of course.
00:59:44I like to see you so full of enthusiasm.
00:59:46Oh, I will always be grateful to you.
00:59:57One day you'll do something for me.
00:59:59Oh, yes.
01:00:00Oh, yes.
01:00:00Julian.
01:00:01Julian.
01:00:22Oh, my God.
01:00:23Julian.
01:00:24Oh, my God.
01:00:54Oh, my God.
01:01:24They are together now.
01:01:25Good.
01:01:29I've no one anymore.
01:01:32In all this while, only the thought of you kept me alive.
01:01:38I was certain that one day we'd meet again.
01:01:41I hoped we would, too.
01:01:45But then, with all the wrongs we both suffered, I began to lose heart.
01:01:50My faith.
01:01:52My trust in men.
01:01:54There's something in you now that frightens me.
01:02:05Don't be afraid, my love.
01:02:08My feelings for you will always be the same.
01:02:10Take me away from here.
01:02:32Don't you want to?
01:02:40Of course.
01:02:45But where could we live?
01:02:47We can't live in this country.
01:02:49A nun who runs away from a convent is shunned by everyone.
01:02:52We'd be outcasts.
01:02:54We'd have nothing.
01:02:54But we'd have each other.
01:03:03Yes.
01:03:12But to flee together, we need first money and friends to hide us.
01:03:17And I'd have to run away from the army.
01:03:18Once you said soldiers were robbers, you called them outlaws then.
01:03:27Now you steal.
01:03:29You have changed.
01:03:30Yes, I know, but I had no choice.
01:03:43But I love you all the same.
01:03:46Oh, my God.
01:04:16You look radiant. Come to my room tonight. We'll all be there.
01:04:46Let's make love together.
01:05:03I invited you. You can't go away like this.
01:05:11Well, then. You prefer the mother superior?
01:05:20The mother superior? What are you saying? How could you?
01:05:25Hmm? It's true though, isn't it?
01:05:27No.
01:05:28Why humiliate me? Haven't I been your friend since the first moment you entered the convent?
01:05:40You let me to believe you cared as I do.
01:05:42I never let you believe that.
01:05:46Then what am I supposed to think about your conduct towards me? Were you faking?
01:05:52I'm sorry that you...
01:05:54Then prove to me that you're sorry.
01:06:17Do I repulse you?
01:06:25You don't know how much I've waited for this moment.
01:06:29And the courage it took to speak to you.
01:06:31Till now I've interpreted your every gesture.
01:06:36Your every word.
01:06:38As meaning that you might even care for me.
01:06:41I degrade myself.
01:06:47I'm no longer myself next to you.
01:06:51Now nothing matters to me unless I can love you always.
01:07:03Together we can find a way.
01:07:06No, it's not my fault.
01:07:08It's not my fault if you've misunderstood.
01:07:12You're clever.
01:07:14I'll make you regret it.
01:07:18Now I'm the one who doesn't want you.
01:07:20Get out.
01:07:34It makes life hard for me.
01:07:41I like to hear the quarrels between nuns.
01:07:47Tell me more.
01:07:50You must take care of the young man.
01:08:02You excite me more than any woman I've ever known.
01:08:05What do you want me to do?
01:08:12Tell me.
01:08:15If he should come for Rondinor.
01:08:20If he should come for Rondinor.
01:08:31That should be amusing.
01:08:51Sister, I'd like to have those things I gave you when I arrived here.
01:08:54But you may keep half of them.
01:08:58What for?
01:08:59What do you want to do?
01:09:00Run away with him?
01:09:01Anyway, your things, like all of the others, are kept under Lachan's key.
01:09:04You should have warned.
01:09:05Better go.
01:09:07But don't forget.
01:09:08If the inquisitor's catch a nun who runs away, she can even be put to death.
01:09:12Hurry.
01:09:13Pickle deck.
01:09:33Help me, thanks.
01:09:35Pickle deck.
01:09:42Oh
01:10:12I told you he wasn't to be killed but only cut up a certain way
01:10:37Someone's coming
01:10:42Julian Julian
01:10:49Julian
01:10:59They killed him
01:11:01Get him in
01:11:03What's wrong?
01:11:04He's dead
01:11:05No
01:11:06No
01:11:07No
01:11:14No
01:11:15No
01:11:16No
01:11:17No
01:11:18No
01:11:19No
01:11:20No
01:11:21No
01:11:22Let me go
01:11:23Let me go
01:11:24Let me go
01:11:25I want to die too
01:11:26I don't want to live without you
01:11:28She said someone killed Julian
01:11:29Not even to the Archbishop
01:11:31I have no one
01:11:32No family
01:11:33Nothing killed Julian
01:11:34I have nothing left to live for
01:11:36Then she died
01:11:38Julian
01:11:40It was you
01:11:42She did it
01:11:43It was you
01:11:44It was you
01:11:45Gee
01:11:46I know nothing
01:11:47Yes you do
01:11:48You do
01:11:49What's wrong?
01:11:50She did it
01:11:51Damn the day I was born
01:11:53Damn my mother
01:11:55Are you mad?
01:11:57Take her away
01:11:58Damn you
01:11:59The whole lot of you
01:12:01Let me go
01:12:03Can she scare myself?
01:12:05Can she scare myself?
01:12:06No
01:12:07She can't let me go
01:12:08Let me go
01:12:20Sisters
01:12:21We can find no trace
01:12:23Neither inside nor outside the convent walls
01:12:25Of what Carmela says has happened
01:12:28We must presume she was delirious
01:12:31How is she today?
01:12:35She has stopped crying
01:12:37And murmured senseless phrases
01:12:39May the Lord have mercy on our sister Carmela
01:12:43Let us pray for her
01:13:01Help
01:13:15Help
01:13:17Help
01:13:20Help
01:13:21Help
01:13:24Help
01:13:28Help
01:13:29Jesus, I bless 1,000 times the moment that you came into this world.
01:13:53You who suffered for us, you whose flesh was humiliated and martyred, you can understand me.
01:14:06You died for our sins. Please forgive me.
01:14:12I beg you, give me the strength to continue living.
01:14:23Mother of God, intercede with your Son.
01:14:31Ave Maria, gratis plena, dominos tecum, benedicta tuis in mulieribus, e benedictus fructus tuis, Iesu.

01:15:12To the coming of the Holy Spirit, the Comforter, deliver us to the Lord.
01:15:15In the day of judgment, deliver us to the Lord.

01:15:27What you have confessed is terrible.
01:15:30For a nunc to have a child is a desecration.
01:15:34you must be put in the isolation cell
01:15:46I'll do the best I can

01:18:44Please!
01:18:46Please!
01:18:48Ah, Carmela.
01:19:02If what the person has written in this anonymous report is a fact, it's indefensible.
01:19:07Would your grace authorize me to investigate the convent?
01:19:11You shall. I too shall go and will break the cloister seal in the presence of the militia.
01:19:18What has happened here is infamous, a shameful blight not only on this convent
01:19:45and our diocese, but the entire religious community of our country.
01:19:51I warn you, concealing the guilty is also a capital sin in the eyes of the church.
01:19:56And unless you surrender freely to the secular arm, this fiend you are hiding,
01:20:04you are all in league with the devil.
01:20:08Now, which is the mother?
01:20:11I want to know the mother!
01:20:19She is!
01:20:22Yes.
01:20:25It's true. I'm the mother.
01:20:27No.
01:20:29She's lying.
01:20:31I'm the mother.
01:20:32The sisters are not telling the truth.
01:20:36I'm the mother.
01:20:37Wait!
01:20:39It's nothing to be ashamed of.
01:20:42I'm the mother.
01:20:43It's not true I'm the mother.
01:20:45Enough! Silence!
01:20:47Now let only the guilty nun confess her crime.
01:20:51I am the mother.
01:20:52He's my son.
01:20:53No, he's my son.
01:20:56No, he's my son.
01:20:57Do you hear?
01:20:58I'm the mother.
01:21:00He's mine.
01:21:01He's mine.
01:21:02Enough!
01:21:04Enough!
01:21:05Silence!
01:21:06I'm the mother.
01:21:08No, I'm the mother.
01:21:11If every nun claims it, you laugh at me.
01:21:14Now the diocese will close your rebellious convent.
01:21:16I'm the mother.
01:21:18That's not true.
01:21:19It's mine.
01:21:19It's my child.
01:21:21I'm the mother.
01:21:23Oh, dear Mary.
01:21:53Carmela, you'll have to leave with the baby.
01:21:57If you wear these men's clothes, it'll be easier for you.
01:22:01In a few hours, there'll be no one left here.
01:22:04We're being sent away.
01:22:06The soldiers are coming to escort us tomorrow.
01:22:10The order's been dissolved.
01:22:13I'm not worthy of your sacrifice.
01:22:16That's not true. You'll be treated horribly
01:22:19in the convents where you're placed, won't you?
01:22:22Don't think about it.
01:22:25Mother.
01:22:28Mother, God bless you.
01:22:31It's almost daylight.
01:22:33Mother, she has to go now.
01:22:39Carmela, go.
01:22:52I'd like to say goodbye to the others.
01:23:07No, it would be dangerous.
01:23:08Could you ever forgive me?
01:23:09I've already forgiven you.
01:23:10Goodbye.
01:23:11I love you.
01:23:12Goodbye.
01:23:13Goodbye.
01:23:14I love you.
01:23:15I
01:23:19Like to say goodbye to the others you know it would be dangerous
01:23:26Could you ever forgive me I've already forgiven you
01:23:45Here's your jewelry and law from all of us. It'll be useful
01:24:02Thank you sister
01:24:05Wait a little when we're all out of the place go wait by the ruined church. You'll see a woman who will look after you there
01:24:15I
01:24:45Excuse me sister
01:24:48Have you seen a young man with a baby I?
01:24:53Was supposed to dress like a man I
01:24:57Didn't
01:24:59But I'm the one you were to meet but is your habit worn every day or did you borrow the veil?
01:25:04If God has accepted the vows I made in my heart. I'm truly a nun
