00:00:01Well used. Travel.
00:00:06Virtual object with bells.
00:00:09Long silver object in the ship.
00:00:13From my earliest memory, Isabel was more than just an elder sister.
00:00:17She was the one standing beside me, protecting me.
00:00:20With her, I felt safe from all the horrors that began to surround us.
00:00:27Two small wooden boxes.
00:00:30With worn leather straps.
00:00:34One circumcision knife.
00:00:37Good condition.
00:00:38Good condition.
00:00:39But it's very important.
00:00:40tipo
00:00:41that is nice to be nuevo.
00:00:42Yes!
00:00:43Yo, I see a little bit of my hands up here.
00:00:44Ah, in the back.
00:00:46Quick, now.
00:00:47I'm Lucisimate.
00:00:48Open the door, please.
00:00:50What's that?
00:00:52Open the door, please.
00:00:55From here.
00:00:56I baptize you, fold Alison,
00:01:10in the name of the Father and the Son.
00:01:14Beatriz, I baptize you at home,
00:01:17In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
00:01:21And I baptized you in the name of the Father and the Son of the Spirit.
00:01:29And we baptized you close each other in the name of the Father and the Son of the Holy
00:01:32Spirit.
00:01:34Do you!
00:01:35So it's exciting that I will baptize you in place.
00:01:38I baptize you Clara Maria in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
00:01:44I don't know.
00:02:14I don't know.
00:02:44I don't know.
00:03:14I don't know.
00:03:18Even when we were wrenched from our home and our family scattered, Isabel was there to comfort and console me.
00:03:25Our mother and father sent us on ahead.
00:03:27We would never see them again.
00:03:44We would never see them again.
00:03:46Holy Father, we aim to view this, maker of man in your own likeness.
00:03:52We humbly pray to you for this man and woman.
00:03:56After so much hardship, we had come only as far as Antwerp, where we settled and grew up.
00:04:01Isabel took control of family affairs.
00:04:04She arranged my marriage to Alfonso Salvador, a converted Jew like us.
00:04:09We lived as Catholics, but we never forgot who we really were.
00:04:12I gave birth to a baby girl, Victoria, and for a long time our family was happy.
00:04:26Until one day the Inquisition burst upon us again.
00:04:28My husband died helping others.
00:04:40For many years he had been smuggling Jews beyond the reaches of Christendom to Istanbul.
00:04:44My daughter was only 13 years old, but now, like her mother and aunt before her, fatherless in this world.
00:04:58Once more we had to abandon our home.
00:05:01Our cousin Joseph stayed behind, promising to bring out others of our faith when he could.
00:05:14When you've finished with that, give it to the way you have to take it out.
00:05:18Farrah.
00:05:20I've sent a messenger ahead to make preparations for this.
00:05:22I was a widow at 31, and now the shadow of my husband's death fell between my sister and myself, dividing us for the first time.
00:05:31I want you to read this out to me.
00:05:34What is it?
00:05:36Alfonso's will.
00:05:37According to the law of our family, Salvador Benveniste, one single person should be charged with the interests of all.
00:05:47Thus, I entrust the Salvador fortune to my sister-in-law, Isabel, being the eldest living member.
00:05:54She inherits all our assets in Antoapes, Lyon, Frankfurt, and Venice.
00:05:59I also entrust to Isabel my daughter, Victoria.
00:06:02She will be her guardian until such time as Victoria's marriage.
00:06:29We were so rushed. These few trunks were all we could manage.
00:06:32Now, here, that's the important thing.
00:06:35Of course.
00:06:36But I'll only be happy when I see Joseph and the others here as well.
00:06:43And how long do you think before we'd be able to get a boat?
00:06:46A fortnight.
00:06:47Maybe more.
00:06:49I'm in negotiations with some Turks.
00:06:52Thank you, Donato.
00:06:53I've been dreaming of our own passage to Isabel for so many years.
00:06:56You've made the right decision.
00:06:58Everyone says it's a haven for Jews.
00:07:00Are there no streets in Venice?
00:07:08Yes.
00:07:09Except sometimes at high tide.
00:07:12When I first arrived, what, 15 years ago, every piazza in Venice was underwater.
00:07:17And in all that time, you've never had any problems living here?
00:07:21Never.
00:07:21So long as you keep to yourself.
00:07:26They tolerate outsiders like us?
00:07:28If they believe we can bring them good business, for the most part, the converted Jews are welcome.
00:07:33If you break their trust, Venetians can be merciless.
00:07:36We've learned to be cautious.
00:07:37Some of the people Alfonso sent in the past have stayed on to help me.
00:07:51They're very discreet.
00:07:53You feel at ease with them.
00:07:55Has anyone asked you why we were here?
00:07:57Oh, I told them you were planning to settle.
00:08:00What, with Venetian and Turkish relations being so strained, I didn't think it would be wise to disclose your real intentions.
00:08:07Can I make this my room?
00:08:09Of course.
00:08:10Your mother agrees.
00:08:11There's some powerful Venetians you will have to meet.
00:08:14One of them, Count Foscari, the man who secured your permits, has already invited you to a ball.
00:08:20If it's not too much.
00:08:21I hope you accept it for us.
00:08:23I do.
00:08:24He expects to hear about your investments in Venice.
00:08:27Hmm.
00:08:42I can't find my shoes anywhere.
00:08:45Are these ones?
00:08:47No, not those.
00:08:48They're probably left behind in Antwerp like everything else.
00:08:50Sarah, please, we'll be late.
00:08:52We haven't even got the right clothes.
00:08:54I don't think anybody's going to notice we're in mourning.
00:08:56All the more reason to make our excuses.
00:08:58I don't know why you feel we have to go to this ball.
00:09:01What am I going to say if someone asks after Alfonso?
00:09:04I don't think you need me to tell you.
00:09:05Oh, Victoria, if someone asks her where her father is.
00:09:07I have a word with her, if you like.
00:09:09Now, I'll talk to her.
00:09:10As you wish.
00:09:12After all, I am her mother.
00:09:13It's only right that I should be concerned with my daughter.
00:09:16Or should I now behave differently toward her?
00:09:18You're still upset by Alfonso's will, aren't you?
00:09:20I'm not upset.
00:09:21It's just a piece of paper.
00:09:22Nothing's changed.
00:09:23I'm really concerned for my daughter.
00:09:25Besides, I don't know how anyone can describe a will as just a piece of paper.
00:09:29Count and Countess Foscombe.
00:09:46Count Foscombe.
00:09:47Donna Isabel and her sister, Clara Salvador, and her daughter, Victoria.
00:09:52I'm honored.

00:16:45our most prized commodity and although traditionally it has always been restricted to those of us
00:16:52of venetian birth i'm certain that once you become a full citizen i would very much like to learn more
00:16:57about it so you shall in the meantime is there anything else that struck you something a little
00:17:05less fragile perhaps our maritime trade i would highly recommend it if as demanding says your intention

00:17:21that is your intention as you know of course that is your intention as you know of course that is
00:17:27an investment in cargo space on two ships you would receive a return rate of 15 percent
00:17:37in the past we received twice that amount
00:17:41very well then 30 percent in five ships
00:17:45i'm sure 150 000 ducats that wouldn't be too big a burden on your resources

00:20:06master's events yesterday i overheard henan vasquez an assistant glass maker on the island of morano
00:20:12talking about selling the secrets of our most venerated industry to foreigners
00:20:16foreigners i write this letter with no thought of profit to myself
00:20:19the man is a traitor to our state and to all its citizens

00:21:11i
00:21:13i
00:21:15I am the most famous Christian.
00:21:18You don't have to go to the Monsequential.
00:21:21You don't have to go to the Baptist, the Baptist, the apostles.
00:21:45How old do you know, Signor Zane?
00:22:12Not well.
00:22:15I know that he comes from an old family riddled with debt.
00:22:19The name still holds sway in the courts.
00:22:23And he said he can be bought.
00:22:26He also has a reputation as a ladies' man.
00:22:28Can he be approached?
00:22:31I believe he might be persuaded to help us.
00:22:34Would you like me to try?
00:22:36Of course.
00:22:37We can never have too many friends.
00:22:42Upon receiving an anonymous letter on the third day of June, 1518,
00:22:53with charges of the selling of state secrets and bribery of public officials,
00:22:58the Council of Ten has issued an arrest warrant for Hernan Vasquez,
00:23:02who will be sentenced by the highest authorities.
00:23:12Find Hernan Vasquez and bring him.
00:23:17I understand you went to a ball the other night.
00:23:20How was it?
00:23:22I don't remember.
00:23:23You don't remember?
00:23:25Meeting any nice people?
00:23:27No.
00:23:28Oh, I can't believe that.
00:23:30A pretty girl like you, so clever, so talented.
00:23:34How many languages did you say you spoke?
00:23:37Five.
00:23:38I've never really spoken French.
00:23:41So it doesn't count?
00:23:43Oh, you're here.
00:23:48The doctor's still with Victoria.
00:23:50What doctor?
00:23:51Didn't you send for one?
00:23:53No.
00:23:54Well, somebody did.
00:23:55He's from the ghetto.
00:23:56I thought it must be new.
00:23:57I didn't send for anyone.
00:23:59My sister, Isabel.
00:24:03My name is Ruben Montillo.
00:24:06Signor Zane asked me to look in on your niece, Victoria.
00:24:09Is she all right?
00:24:10Oh, she's fine.
00:24:12Minor stomach upset.
00:24:14Nothing serious.
00:24:16I'll go and see you.
00:24:17Goodbye.
00:24:22I told her to stay away from sweet wines.
00:24:25Well, they make better poisons.
00:24:28Yes.
00:24:29It is an honor to make your acquaintance, Judith Benveniste.
00:24:35How did you come to know my name?
00:24:37Well, his, his, his.
00:24:40I know the good you are doing, the lives you have saved.
00:24:43I thought people in the ghetto would find it difficult to understand us.
00:24:46It's better they don't know.
00:24:49I would very much like to.
00:24:51Oh, no, no, no.
00:24:52Signor Zane has already been very generous.
00:24:54Well, how can I thank you?
00:24:55She just promised to call on me.
00:24:57You should ever need my services.
00:24:59I will.
00:25:00Thank you again.
00:25:10Thoughtful people, these Venetians.
00:25:12Either that or seeing Zane has his eye on you.
00:25:16And then Vasquez, you have been found guilty of trading secrets of glass making to the infidel,
00:25:23and forsaking the trust of our serene state.
00:25:26Denounced by your fellow men, and revealed before God, as you are.
00:25:31As you are.
00:25:32We release you into his hands for his eternal judgment.
00:25:36A beautiful man, my holy men.
00:25:37I think the foolish man was not a kind.
00:25:39I have no idea.
00:25:40I have no idea.
00:25:41I want to pay for money.
00:25:42I'm afraid I'll pay for them once in battle.
00:25:43But I got a great job.
00:25:44I will.
00:25:45A great job.
00:25:46I will get your life.
00:25:47I will help you.
00:25:48I got a good job.
00:25:49There is nothing.
00:25:50A good job.
00:25:51No good.
00:25:52I am a good job.
00:25:53A good job.
00:25:54You will have no idea.
00:25:55I am a good job.
00:25:56You will never want toutilize some advice.
00:25:57I will even get rid of them.

00:29:19You've been a bad boy, and you're going to be punished.
00:29:27Don't come back here.
00:29:28Go!
00:29:37Thank you for sending a doctor for Victoria.
00:29:40I'm glad she's feeling better.
00:29:42Why did you give that boy a coin?
00:29:44Did I?
00:29:45I saw you.
00:29:47Well, the fathers will take it off him later.
00:29:49The church gets everything in the end, almost.
00:29:52Is that why everyone was laughing?
00:29:54We're Venetians first, Christians second.
00:29:57We believe in San Marco, a bitten god, hardly at all in the Pope.
00:30:07What language are they speaking?
00:30:11Ladino, your mother used to speak it when she was little, like all Jews in Spain.
00:30:15I thought Jews weren't allowed in Venice.
00:30:17Oh, yes, they are.
00:30:18They just have to live in the ghetto.
00:30:20Oh, can I see her?
00:30:30There are so many people.
00:30:35Isn't that where Dr. Ruben lives?
00:30:37Yes, it is.
00:30:39Can we go in?
00:30:40No.
00:30:41It's forbidden.
00:30:54Why do they keep the glasswork so far out?
00:30:57Well, it's easier to protect them from unwanted visitors.
00:30:59And there have been so many fires.
00:31:02The last one almost destroyed Venice.
00:31:04I feel privileged that you have chosen to take us.
00:31:07Why?
00:31:08You're one of us.
00:31:15Come.
00:31:17Let me start by showing you a little piece of magic I learned long ago.
00:31:31Now the mystery.
00:31:33You can hit this glass as hard as you like, but it won't break.
00:31:41Stand back, please.
00:31:43Watch your eyes.
00:31:43Victoria, can I run?
00:31:46And as if by a miracle.
00:31:48Ah!
00:31:50What is that?
00:31:52A Prince Rupert's drop.
00:31:54May I have a look around?
00:31:55Of course.
00:31:56Of course.
00:31:58Ah.
00:31:59This is a wonderful place.
00:32:01Thank you very much.
00:32:08It must take years to arrive at such perfection.
00:32:10Yes, and a lot of patience, too.
00:32:13When molten the glass is alive, you must understand its nature.
00:32:18It's a question of mixture, colour, heat, smell also.
00:32:23How do you know when the glass is hot enough?
00:32:24Well, that's very difficult for me to explain.
00:32:26The glass tells me.
00:32:28I feel it.
00:32:29I can't explain with words.
00:32:32I know of many places where your skills are envied and appreciated.
00:32:38Of course, it takes several lifetimes to learn a craft such as ours.
00:32:42Such a skill could be highly rewarded.
00:32:45I hope we can talk further.
00:32:47Victoria is full of intelligence and candour, like her mother.
00:33:03I can think of many Venetians who would be glad to welcome her to their family.
00:33:07She is still very young.
00:33:08That is the right age to marry.
00:33:10The Salvadors are a distinguished family.
00:33:20Donna Isabel would be willing to pay an exceptional price for the glassworks.
00:33:23But what would prevent her from selling our knowledge of glassmaking to foreigners?
00:33:27You'd only be encouraging her to take her affairs elsewhere.
00:33:30Not if her niece were wed in Venice.
00:33:32And who would marry this fortunate heiress?
00:33:34It's every father's duty to see his son well-married.
00:33:37God bless you and you.
00:33:40Good day.
00:33:44Why are you thinking of your son, Andrea?
00:33:47He's a limited boy.
00:33:48It's the best I can do for him.
00:33:51Tread carefully, Zane.
00:33:53Are you sure it's the right family?
00:33:56Donna Isabel made a commitment to me that she seems reluctant to keep.
00:33:59Perhaps she's just being cautious.
00:34:02Scheming, more like.
00:34:03I think you'll find the Salvadors are less calculating than you would imagine.
00:34:07The younger sister, Clara, is quite a delicate creature.
00:34:10Delicate?
00:34:13You're not becoming sentimental, are you, Zane?
00:34:15You of all people.
00:34:17Delicate, you say?
00:34:26Stunning.
00:34:29Oh, you are beautiful.
00:34:31I long for news of you.
00:34:47You would do me a great honour by being a guest in my humble country estate.
00:34:52Your devoted servant, Al-Azani.
00:34:55There are five ways of sharpening a quill.
00:35:09Use the first to send me your news.
00:35:12The second to tell me you accept my invitation.
00:35:16The third to tell me when I shall have the pleasure of seeing you.
00:35:20The fourth to tell me it will be tomorrow.
00:35:26Do not use the fifth.
00:35:27It is intended only for rejections and unkindness.
00:35:39Whatever you do, don't use this quill.
00:35:41Zane, he's been very kind to us.
00:35:43You are fond of him, aren't you?
00:35:44Yes.
00:35:45And you trust him?
00:35:46When is the invitation for?
00:35:49Not until Saturday.
00:35:50Good.
00:35:51Plenty of time to buy some new clothes.
00:36:05You're perfect.
00:36:07One might almost mistake you for being Venetian.
00:36:12Good afternoon, ladies.
00:36:27Count Foster.
00:36:30Donna Isabel, a word, if I may.
00:36:33I'll join you in a moment.
00:36:36I, um, I had hoped that you might have settled my account by now.
00:36:41I shall speak to De Monte.
00:36:44Remember, the laws in Venice are very strict
00:36:47concerning trade and security agreements.
00:36:51Pays to conform.
00:36:54The penalty can be quite severe.
00:36:56Thank you for the reminder.
00:36:59Good day, Count Foster.
00:37:00Great.
00:37:01Donna Isabel.
00:37:01Hello.
00:37:02Hello.
00:37:02Hello.
00:37:02Hello.
00:37:02Hello.
00:37:02Hello.
00:37:02Hello.
00:37:02Hello.
00:37:02Hello.
00:37:03Hello.
00:37:04Hello.
00:37:04Hello.
00:37:04Hello.
00:37:04Hello.
00:37:04Hello.
00:37:05Hello.
00:37:05Hello.
00:37:06Hello.
00:37:06Hello.
00:37:07Hello.
00:37:07Hello.
00:37:08Hello.
00:37:08Hello.
00:37:09Hello.
00:37:09Hello.
00:37:10Hello.
00:37:10Hello.
00:37:11Hello.
00:37:11I swear this was your first problem here since leaving Antwerp.
00:37:41It's not been easy bringing out so many of our people.
00:37:50How many did you manage?
00:37:52Six families.
00:37:53For the time being, De Monte has hidden them out on the islands.
00:37:56But the sooner we leave, the better.
00:37:58We can't wait any longer now that Joseph's arrived and Fosker is breathing down my neck for the money I promised him.
00:38:06I'm afraid, I'm afraid, Signor Zane's petition on our behalf is going nowhere.
00:38:11Forget about Zane.
00:38:12We can't keep our people on the islands forever.
00:38:15We can't wait any longer.
00:38:16I'll have to wait any longer.
00:38:17I'll have to wait any longer.
00:38:18I'll have to make my own deal with the glassmaker and take him with us.
00:38:19Please try to arrange a safe place for us to meet.
00:38:23Clara.
00:38:29Signor Zane.
00:38:30Victoria.
00:38:36So good to see you.
00:38:38Good day.
00:38:40Thank you for coming.
00:38:41It's my pleasure.
00:38:41You remember Andrea?
00:38:42Andrea, how nice to see you again.
00:38:49You've changed your clothes.
00:38:52You're going to make all Venetian women jealous.
00:38:55Even Francesca?
00:38:57Most especially.
00:38:59Have you known her long?
00:39:00Since as far back as I can remember.
00:39:03When my wife died, she dedicated a lot of time to me.
00:39:07Ah.
00:39:09You must be very close.
00:39:10She's my sister-in-law.
00:39:13I see.
00:39:14Andrea was only six.
00:39:17And he needed someone.
00:39:18She was there.
00:39:24Let's pretend to talk, otherwise my father will worry.
00:39:26You talk, I'll reply.
00:39:29I know a lot of young girls who would like to be in your place.
00:39:32I would concede it to them with pleasure.
00:39:34I didn't choose this situation any more than you.
00:39:37However, I do not find it as disagreeable.
00:39:39As you appear to.
00:39:42You clean the squid, taking out its mouth, eyes, stomach.
00:39:45And then, Cesare, we take out its blackbird.
00:39:50This we get to the birds.
00:39:51Be careful.
00:39:52And then we squeeze out the black ink.
00:39:57Ah.
00:39:57You see, most of it's on my hand now.
00:40:00Put it into warm water.
00:40:02How do you know all this?
00:40:05My grandmother taught me.
00:40:06That's her grandmother taught her.
00:40:07That's her grandmother taught her.
00:40:09How do you know all this?
00:40:25I can't be away from the glassworks for too long.
00:40:49Do you realize how difficult this decision is for me?
00:40:53Of course.
00:40:54But you accept our terms.
00:40:56Your offer is generous.
00:40:58But if I accept it, I'll be putting everything at risk.
00:41:00And glassmaking's not only my work, it's my life.
00:41:03I understand.
00:41:04You'll have everything you need when we get to Istanbul.
00:41:07You will have your own glassworks.
00:41:08I give you my word.
00:41:09The terms are agreeable to me.
00:41:16Do you miss your old life?
00:41:17No.
00:41:18Hardly at all.
00:41:20Especially now.
00:41:21It wasn't difficult at first.
00:41:23It's always hard when you're escaping the past.
00:41:25You advance with your head turned back for a while.
00:41:27And then things start to change.
00:41:30When you summon up your memories one by one,
00:41:32you find your home is no longer what it was,
00:41:35your daughter has grown up,
00:41:37your sister is a different sister.
00:41:45My marriage was arranged by Isabel.
00:41:49I was never in love with Alfonso.
00:41:52Sometimes I think he married me
00:41:53so that he could be closer to her.
00:41:56Your sister was never engaged?
00:41:58No.
00:41:59She's always had to look out for the rest of us.
00:42:01She was never free to live as others do.
00:42:04She never really had a childhood.
00:42:05I want to give Victoria the happiness that she deserves.
00:42:13She will find it here.
00:42:18In Venice.
00:42:19Finally, it seems we're going to be leaving very shortly.
00:42:30Really?
00:42:31It's good news, isn't it?
00:42:33Do you really think it's a good idea?
00:42:35What?
00:42:37Maybe we should stay a little longer and see how things turn out.
00:42:39I mean, we don't know anything about Istanbul.
00:42:42And Venice has been kind to us.
00:42:45What happened with you and Zani today?
00:42:51Nothing.
00:42:54We just talked.
00:42:56About what?
00:42:57Oh, I don't know.
00:42:58All kinds of things.
00:43:01Life.
00:43:02Venice.
00:43:03The future.
00:43:09He even suggested Victoria should marry Andrea.
00:43:13Clara, I think it would be better if you don't see Zani anymore.
00:43:17I thought you liked him.
00:43:19The Turks have agreed to send us a boat.
00:43:21We're leaving Venice.
00:43:22Venice.
00:43:22Venice.
00:43:33Venice.
00:43:53Venice.
00:43:54There.
00:43:56There.
00:43:57There.
00:43:58Let's go.
00:44:28Let's go.
00:44:58Let's go.
00:45:28Victoria, what are you doing here, all of them?
00:45:39Are you hungry?
00:45:53No.
00:45:59It was nice to see you as an honest, wasn't it?
00:46:07Victoria?
00:46:08What?
00:46:10Why don't you answer me?
00:46:11I was asking your opinion.
00:46:13I heard you.
00:46:14I'm tired.
00:46:16I'm going to bed.
00:46:17Are you sure she was with him?
00:46:31They were a stone's throw away from me.
00:46:34Anybody could have seen them.
00:46:37She could at least have concealed it.
00:46:39I'd better have a word with her.
00:46:51Clara?
00:46:53Have you lost your mind?
00:46:55Why?
00:46:55You were seen last night.
00:47:00I don't know what you mean.
00:47:01Don't lie to me.
00:47:03Where are you going?
00:47:05Clara?
00:47:07Don't be chasing you like a child.
00:47:09You don't know anything about him.
00:47:12I don't need to.
00:47:14This.
00:47:15You can never have a life with him.
00:47:18Why not?
00:47:20Because all Zane has ever wanted from us is to secure a dowry for his son.
00:47:24He's after our money.
00:47:26Will you stop thinking about yourself and think about your daughter?
00:47:31Victoria is my daughter and she will do as her mother sees fit.
00:47:35The will makes me her guardian.
00:47:36I'll contest the will.
00:47:38I felt bid you to see Zane again.
00:47:40Whatever.
00:47:40You are only my sister.
00:47:41You cannot forbid me from seeing whoever I want to see.
00:47:45But we're leaving.
00:47:46No.
00:47:48Victoria will marry Andrea.
00:47:50And I will stay here to be with her.
00:47:56I will stay here to be with her.
00:48:26We could never have a life here.
00:48:43Can you imagine what it would mean to us if we stayed?
00:48:47We would have to live as Catholics.
00:48:49We do live as Catholics.
00:48:51Do we not attend Mass?
00:48:53Do we not take communion and go to confession like all other Catholics?
00:48:57However we might behave, to them we can only ever be one thing.
00:49:00Jews.
00:49:01Jews?
00:49:02What kind of Jews?
00:49:03I mean, what kind of Jews do you think we are?
00:49:05Tell me.
00:49:05What kind of Jews are forbidden to enter a synagogue?
00:49:07What kind of Jews share their table with the same people who chase them from their homes?
00:49:10What kind of Jews allow themselves to be baptized?
00:49:13The kind that want to survive.
00:49:14That's why we're going, so that we can be Jews.
00:49:17Let's go.
00:49:47Let's go.
00:49:48Let's go.
00:50:17Victoria what are you doing here? I was looking for you Dr. Rubin don't make me go back I don't
00:50:40want to marry Andrea. Andrea? Paolo's aunt his son. Yes I know who he is but what is so wrong with Andrea that he's got you in such a state? What do you keep doing? Nothing I just don't want to marry her. I doubt very much your mother or your aunt would ever make it something that wasn't in her best interest. Wait here. How long is she? It's not important. She's not from here. She needs my help. I want to help her send her away. It's not right that she should be here. She's my responsibility.
00:51:10Not when she's among us.
00:51:28What do you think I should do about Clara? How can I make her see? Half I believe we support her for now. The less trouble the better while we're waiting for the boat.
00:51:37When can we expect to leave? I think within a month. I was hoping you'd say a week.
00:52:07Clara. Clara. I love you. I know we both want what's best for the family. It's just that with everything that's happening, we want different things.
00:52:37I don't want to stop you. I don't want to stop you from doing what you feel is right.
00:52:51Please forgive me for the way I acted.
00:52:54I won't interfere anymore.
00:52:55I won't interfere anymore.
00:52:57I won't interfere anymore.
00:52:58I won't interfere anymore.
00:52:59What about Victoria?
00:53:00You are her mother. You decide.
00:53:05It's important to me that we stay together.
00:53:24We will.
00:53:25We will.
00:53:26We will.
00:53:27Since the day of the last Kippur until today are declared none and must be considered as absolutely void.
00:53:34May we therefore be pardoned, we the children of Israel and the foreigners who live among us, for we have all acted through error.

00:59:20It's the happiness of others.
00:59:22She's happy for Victoria.
00:59:24She's happy for all of us.
00:59:26Senor Azade.
00:59:27Isabel, how are you?
00:59:28Fine, thank you. I would like very much to speak to you.
00:59:30My pleasure.
00:59:31In private.
00:59:32Will you excuse me for a moment?
00:59:34Of course.
00:59:38We must go.
00:59:40Monte's been caught.
00:59:44Quickly.
00:59:46Please.
00:59:50It's odd.
00:59:52But I feel strangely nostalgic this evening.
00:59:54Perhaps it's the idea of my son breaking free of me forever.
00:59:58I had no idea you were such a doting father.
01:00:02You don't know me.
01:00:04I know you better than you think.
01:00:06What did you want to talk to me about?
01:00:08Clara.
01:00:09Clara.
01:00:10I fear she's very much in love with you.
01:00:12much more than I had realized.
01:00:14She doesn't know how to protect herself.
01:00:16She doesn't know how to protect herself.
01:00:17What does she have to protect herself from?
01:00:18What does she have to protect herself from?
01:00:20You.
01:00:21You.
01:00:22You.
01:00:23She doesn't know how to resist your kind.
01:00:24You.
01:00:25She doesn't know how to resist your kind.
01:00:27What kind am I?
01:00:28What kind am I?
01:00:29The kind that is proud.
01:00:30The kind that is proud.
01:00:31You.
01:00:32You.
01:00:33You.
01:00:34You.
01:00:35You.
01:00:36You.
01:00:37You.
01:00:38You.
01:00:39You.
01:00:40You.
01:00:41You.
01:00:42You.
01:00:43You.
01:00:44You.
01:00:45You are blessed from to come to me.
01:00:47would not only do you have to protect herself from.
01:00:54Where would you think?
01:00:58You.
01:01:00She does not know how to resist your kind.
01:01:04Love her.
01:01:09Seduce them.
01:01:39Seduce them.
01:02:09Seduce them.
01:02:39Seduce them.
01:03:09Seduce them.
01:03:39Seduce them.
01:03:41Seduce them.
01:03:43Seduce them.
01:03:44Seduce them.
01:03:45Republic in such short time, it is as though they've always been among us.
01:03:54Now, where is our hostess, Clara?
01:03:58Clara?
01:03:59Ah, there she is.
01:04:05Clara, in placing your daughter with one of Venice's oldest and most respected families,
01:04:11you have assured her happiness.
01:04:15Andrea, like his father, is full of integrity and honour.
01:04:22And Isabel, whose loyalty and devotion to her family has helped conspire this moment.
01:04:32Please join me in raising your glasses and wishing Victoria, Andrea and the Salvadors
01:04:39A long life in Venice!

01:04:49Thank you!
01:04:50Thank you!
01:04:52Thank you!
01:04:53Thank you!
01:04:54Thank you!
01:04:55Thank you!
01:04:57Thank you!

01:05:11Thank you!
01:05:12Thank you!
01:05:13Thank you!
01:05:14Thank you!
01:05:15Thank you!
01:05:16Did you write this?
01:05:33No, I did not.
01:05:36I wish I had.
01:05:42What are you going to do?
01:05:44Find out who did write the letter.
01:05:45I don't see how that's your concern.
01:05:48Shouldn't you be inquiring after the contents of the letter?
01:05:51Inciting hatred and false claims are serious crimes.
01:05:55More serious than crimes against the Republic?
01:06:01I see how you look at me, and it pains me deeply.
01:06:05Thank you for coming at such short notice, Francesca.
01:06:08I was escorted here.
01:06:11And you shall be escorted back.
01:06:15Why have you told me I still?
01:06:28Why do you torture me still?
01:06:44I swear, I don't know anything.
01:06:58I think there's trunks in here.
01:07:04Far, we have to go.
01:07:08What is it?
01:07:14What are they doing here?
01:07:18I wrote a letter last night telling everything about you.
01:07:28You did what?
01:07:32Donna, you come with me.
01:07:36Clara.
01:07:58Go to the left.
01:08:00Follow me.
01:08:02Go to the left.
01:08:04Follow me.
01:08:06Why are these soldiers here?
01:08:08What are they looking for?
01:08:09Nothing, I hope.
01:08:10Nothing?
01:08:11Nothing that might confirm this letter.
01:08:14Your life depends on it.
01:08:16Isabel Benvenista is a liar and witch.
01:08:34She means to betray you.
01:08:36You wear Venice for Isabel Benvenista has no mercy.
01:08:40She will rob you of everything that you most treasure before your very eyes.
01:08:44Do not touch her money.
01:08:46It is polluted and will curse your shores.
01:08:48Already she uses it to set up business on the reality.
01:08:50Using men of influence to send merchandise aboard ships and galleys.
01:08:54She poses as an honest Christian.
01:08:56She is neither honest nor Christian.
01:08:58She may attend mass, but in secret at home she still prays as a Jew.
01:09:12And it is as a Jew that she means to go on living in Istanbul.
01:09:17For Isabel Benvenista plans to steal the secret of Venetian glass making and sell it to the Ottomans.
01:09:24May I?
01:09:29Please.
01:09:30What are these?
01:09:32Prince Rupert drops.
01:09:34Yes.
01:09:36Exquisite.

01:14:16I failed us. I failed you.
01:14:20I failed us all.
01:14:23Listen to me.
01:14:33Foscary's holding Victoria somewhere.
01:14:36Find her and leave Venice.
01:14:40I don't know.
01:14:42Ask Sunny. Find her and then go.
01:14:46Everything's been prepared.
01:14:51Here. Take this.
01:14:55It's your responsibility now.
01:14:58Don't worry about me.
01:15:00I have my own understanding with Foscary.
01:15:04I have my own understanding with her.
01:15:15Sorry!
01:15:17Oh, my God.
01:15:47Oh, my God.
01:16:17I can't do anything for you.
01:16:21It's not in my power.
01:16:23It didn't come for me.
01:16:25I came for Victoria.
01:16:29I'm sorry.
01:16:30It's out of my hands.
01:16:32You must know where they've taken her.
01:16:34Your sister crossed Foscari.
01:16:37Paolo.
01:16:38There's nothing I can do.
01:16:42Nothing.
01:16:43I never wanted to fall in love with you.
01:16:49It happened despite myself.
01:16:54Despite Victoria.
01:16:56I was prepared to give up my whole life for you.
01:17:01I was about to take my daughter away from everything she knew when I had no right.
01:17:04And then when I saw you in that room, you must know what that meant.
01:17:15Do you feel nothing for me?
01:17:26They've taken away my daughter.
01:17:29She's being kept close to Venice.
01:17:38Where?
01:17:40Somewhere safe.
01:17:43Don't make me beg.
01:17:45The convent at San Michele.
01:17:56Clara.
01:18:16Don't come back here.
01:18:18They'll be looking for you.
01:18:22Be careful.
01:18:26Let's go.
01:18:56Victoria.
01:18:58Victoria.
01:19:00Victoria.
01:19:00Victoria.
01:19:26Victoria.
01:19:30Victoria, are you well?
01:19:38You look pale.
01:19:46Please say something.
01:19:50Why did you come?
01:19:51Why did you come?
01:19:59Because we're going to get you out of here.
01:20:01They'll never let me go.
01:20:04You'll have to trust me.
01:20:06I promise you.
01:20:21No one loves me.
01:20:42Oh, Josie!
01:20:43Shh, shh, shh, shh.
01:20:45Oh, Joseph!
01:20:48Shh, shh, shh.
01:20:49You're safe now.
01:20:51Come with me.
01:21:15Where is she?
01:21:23Who?
01:21:25Victoria.
01:21:27Tell me where she is.
01:21:31Tell me.
01:21:35I have nothing to say.
01:21:38My family is safe.
01:21:41Burn me, if you like.
01:21:45We don't burn Jews in Venice.
01:22:15I can't be.
01:22:17You're safe now.
01:22:21I can't be.
01:22:22You're safe now.
01:22:23I'll have a good day.
01:22:23And then many people are safe now.
01:22:24A dream where they are.
01:22:25And soon I die.
01:22:26And soon I'll have a good day.
01:22:27I won't.
01:22:28What the time when they're sick?
01:22:28Sure, they won't burn you.
01:22:29OK, I'll be fine.
01:22:30I know it's for a good day.
01:22:32Oh, my God.
01:22:33You gotta keep this.
01:22:33I'll burn you.
01:22:35I know it's for a good day.
01:22:37You cannot, if it's for a good day now.
01:22:38I'm going to work on you.
01:22:39I know it too.
01:22:40You can move on you.
01:22:41I know it's for a good day.
01:22:42Oh, my God.
01:23:12Life and death are two sisters as one,
01:23:17that which is forever joined and cannot be separated,
01:23:21as life giving and death taking away,
01:23:25as life supports life and death crushes asunder.
01:23:42Oh, my God.
01:24:12Oh, my God.
01:24:42Ever after, I would wonder what my sister might have said about this journey,
01:25:02which had begun so long ago.
01:25:04Had we really survived?
01:25:07Or had our family been shattered beyond all hope of repair?
01:25:11I imagined her saying that death hadn't broken us,
01:25:14but it helped keep us together.
01:25:34Murdered.
01:25:41Murdered.
01:25:42Murdered.
01:25:43We complained so wide about
01:25:46the way we could have been fulfilled.
01:25:46Hold me hungry.
01:25:47Turn my coat on.
