(dramatic orchestral music)

(suspenseful orchestral music)

[Man] Hold it!

Stop!

(woman screams)

[Man] No.

Get out of the way.

Get out.

(door crashing)

(camel grunting)

(all shouting)

(grunts)

[Man] Move.

(dramatic orchestral music)

It is the tradition at passover

to set free a prisoner,

one chosen by the people.

You, the people of Jerusalem, will decide.

Which of these two condemned men

do you wish to see set free,

Jesus of Nazareth or Barabbas?

(grunts)

(crowd murmuring)

(singing in foreign language)

Barabbas.

Barabbas.

Barabbas.

Barabbas.

Barabbas.

[Crowd] Barabbas.

Barabbas.

Barabbas.

Barabbas.

(all shouting)

(dramatic orchestral music)

No.

(speaking foreign language)

No!

(percussive music)

(laughing)

(clapping)

(dramatic orchestral music)

Sorry, there's no more wine.

(grunts)

I'm sorry.

(grunts)

There's no more wine.

Woman, my time has not yet come.

Come.

(liquid sloshing)

Do whatever he tells you.

Fill them with water.

(Break)

Water.

(suspenseful orchestral music)

(coins jingling)

[Man] What are you doing?

I'll give you half.

You can say Barabbas took it all.

I don't betray my master.

Put it back.

(grunts)

Don't kill me.

Don't kill me.

(grunts)

[Woman] Grapes, grapes,

Fresh grapes off the vine.

[Woman] No, I don't think so.

[Man] Well, try these then.

(all chattering)

[Woman] Freshest ones here.

[Woman] We've been here a week.

I hope not.

(all chattering)

(cup shattering)

Tamar.

Tamar.

I dropped my cup.

People don't come here to drink.

Take one of my girls.

Take as many as you like.

How about you kick everybody out?

I wanna be alone.

(laughing)

Choose any girl you wish.

I wanna be alone.

(shrieking)

Everybody out.

Out.

Move.

Get out.

I wanna be alone.

Out.

Out.

Get out.

Move.

Everybody out.

I don't even know what that is.

Get out.

Get out.

She doesn't understand about me.

What are you doing?

This is a brothel.

You're not even doing anything.

Get out.

Out.

(pants)

I wanna be alone.

You are alone, Barabbas.

Alone.

Take Sila, you've always liked her.

No, I want the nameless one.

What nameless one?

The one who's frightened of me.

Frightened of you?

Everyone who knows you is

Frightened of me?

Her, she trembles
every time she sees you.

She does, I want the nameless one.

[Esther] I am the nameless one.

Why the nameless one?

Because he asked me my
name, and I didn't give it.

(dramatic orchestral music)

But she's only a servant.

She doesn't know how to do what you want.

She's less than worthless.

Get out.

What's your name?

Esther.

Pretty.

That's your share.

It's a pittance.

So, next time choose
a better house to rob.

(horse whinnies)

Barabbas, so he's alive.

They said he was killed in Damascus.

[Man] Or in a fight in Sidon
or hung by the neck in Tiro.

You can't believe the rumors.

Barabbas always comes back.

Wherever there's a dead
body, that where I'll find

you two scavengers.

Welcome back, Barabbas.

Zealots.

So busy looking for the Messiah,

they found death instead.

Everyone in Judea is
waiting for a Messiah.

They'll have to crucify the whole land.

It might happen sooner or later.

[Man] Under this Roman
governor, zealots are the enemies

of Rome with all this talk of rebellion

and a Messiah that's
coming to liberate them

with a sword of fire.

Well, these two won't be
doing anymore talking, and

that's what talking gets you.

We should just kick the Romans out.

Careful what you say.

Pilate's spies are everywhere.

The Romans control the
roads, control the caravans,

control the city, everything there is,

the taxes and the gold

Seize the harvests,

and they're making it difficult to steal.

Either you work for the Romans

and break your back for a pittance,

or you end up like them.

What do you two want out of life?

Wine, money and whores.

Same as him, but more whores.

(laughs)

Well, you follow me,

you'll have everything you need.

You follow me, I'll make you rich.

Oh, wine, money and whores and whores

and whores and whores.

(suspenseful orchestral music)

(horse whinnies)

[Barabbas] Are you the caravan master?

I am the oldest.

We come from Sunem in Galilee.

Well, if you are the
master, then the lives of

these people depend on you.

[Caravan Master] We are all
children of the same father.

You know, I never had
the chance to meet him.

But the lord is with
us always, and we are

under his protection.

I don't think so.

He would not had you meet me, Barabbas.

Barabbas, we are traveling

to Jerusalem to offer
sacrifices in the temple.

You know, I never
understood these sacrifices.

It is the duty of
every child of this land.

How do you make a sacrifice?

One offers the victims
to the lord in order

to obtain his benevolence.

So, you buy animals and sheep and doves,

and you kill them?

And you waste your money on this nonsense?

It is tradition.

Well, we're gonna
have a change of plans.

Old man, today, you give your money to me.

But the money for sacrifices is sacred.

Oh, I assure you, the money will be just

as sacred with me.

We are all children of god.

Please, leave us in peace.

Drop your knives or
sacrifices will be made

right here and now.

(shouting)

You reap what you sow.

Where is the money?

No.

Kill the woman.

(screaming)

Stop.

Stop it.

Stop.

It's all here.

(coins jingling)

(laughing)

You're very generous.

Choose any girl you wish, even two, three,

as many as you like.

You may have her all night if you wish.

Well, she's mine

forever.

(laughs)

[Woman] A serving girl.

Aren't you afraid of me?

Would it make any difference?

Well, yes.

You are afraid of me.

Everyone is afraid of Barabbas, everyone.

(gasps)

Why not?

It's a sin.

Yeah.

That's why I like it.

It would be against god's will.

God?

Now I've lost all desire.

I don't want you or your god.

I want a drink.

Go to sleep.

As I told you, follow me

and I will make you fishers of men.

I am a fisherman, always have been,

but I don't understand
what fishers of men means?

(chuckles)

Answer me this,

what is easier, to smile or to offend,

to hit someone or to lend a helping hand?

You can see better from here.

In your opinion, what pleases god more,

to offend or to smile,

to hit out

or to come in peace?

Love your neighbor as you would yourself

because your same pain is in the heart

of those close to you as your same hope.

I've never had the courage to hope.

Excuse me.

I must go.

(men marching)

Do you know what punishment

awaits those who lie
to the Roman governor?

I'm not on trial, am I?

That depends.

What am I accused of?

You'd better say that you were mistaken,

that you made it all up.

I can say whatever you
would like me to say, my lord.

That's better.

But everyone in Bethsaida,

that is where I was born.

Everyone there knows me.

They know I was born blind.

You faked being blind in order to beg.

No.

These eyes had never
seen the light of day.

My world was made up of
things I could touch, taste.

Ask anyone in Bethsaida who knows me.

They know how I have lived my life.

Ask Rabbi Elazir.

He is my master at the synagogue.

We won't ask anyone.

You are a treacherous people,
plotting our downfall,

every one of you.

No one can give sight
to a man born blind.

You are right, my lord.

No one can do that,
but I am the exception.

And how do you think that is possible?

I don't know.

I could hear people talking, shouting.

I moved towards them.

What's going on, I said.

What are you talking about?

Who are you talking about?

"Jesus," they said.

But many people are called Jesus.

Then they say, "Jesus of Nazareth."

Had you ever heard his name before?

No.

Never.

Not as a healer?

As one who drives out demons?

No.

Never.

When I came close, someone pointed me out

to him, and then I felt
his hands on my eyes.

Enough.

You're repeating yourself.

Throw him in prison without light.

You're used to the dark, aren't you?

(whimpers)

A leader sent down from heaven,

a Messiah to lead the
revolt against the emperor.

If the people believe this nonsense,

it will be the end for us.

You don't believe in prophets, do you?

You should rest, Claudia.

When did you last have a good sleep?

You won't answer my question.

Do you know who this child is?

It isn't the child that I can't give you.

Not you, fate.

It was our lot, that's all.

The prophet talks of a
child, a child who will

bring light to the world.

You don't believe it, do you?

You don't believe it can
happen, that someone can

restore sight to the blind.

Claudia, you must learn to distinguish.

I govern this land on
behalf of the Roman emperor.

You close your eyes in order not to see.

You don't want to see.

You are blind and without hope.

I need hope.

I can't live without hope.

I will request a
transfer back to Rome soon.

We cannot live in this land
of rebels and fake prophets.

Isn't it what you always
wanted, to return home?

Not now.

I want to see with my own
eyes, to hear with my own ears.

Is this about the rabbi of Nazareth?

He's just one of the many who
incite the crowd against us.

Stay close to me.

I need you.

(dramatic orchestral music)

(horse whinnies)

You, get over that hill,

on the road to Jerusalem.

If you see Romans or Herod's soldiers,

you'll have time to warn me.

And you, after you water the horses,

wait and sit under that tree, on guard.

Do you know how to play one of these?

No.

Well, learn and keep playing
until I come out of there.

And if you stop playing,
I'll know you asleep.

And if you're asleep, well,
I'll know how to wake you.

Yeah.

(blows air)

(flute music)

I brought you something.

Oh, what's the matter?

Aren't you hungry?

I take care of you, don't I?

Let me go.

Where?

To see the man of
Nazareth, to hear him speak.

He's got nothing to say.

Then you shouldn't be afraid.

Afraid?

I bought you.

I can do what I want with you.

What if you didn't come back?

Why wouldn't I come back?

What, you mean if someone kills me?

If I die, how could you live?

What have you got there?

What is that?

Must be worth a fortune.

I pretend that my mother left it to me.

Pretend?

I never knew her.

Like me, I didn't know mine either.

A slave merchant raised me, hate and fear.

I asked for bread, he gave me stones.

I asked for water, they whipped me.

How can you believe in god?

How can I not?

(light acoustic guitar music)

You can leave.

Go, leave.

I don't care.

Just remember, without
me, you have nothing.

You have no one.

I have god.

God.

I saw how well you were
doing with him only.

He wasn't so good to you, was he?

Maybe he sent you to me.

Then he is a cruel god.

(laughs)

(flute music)

(horse whinnies)

(gasps)

(ominous orchestral music)

You are cleverer than your friend.

Now, you could be even
richer and still alive.

Barabbas!

(grunts)

(suspenseful orchestral music)

Stop.

Death is too good for you, Barabbas.

Water to wine, Barabbas.

The lord revealed his power.

It's almost time for us to
take up the sword and fight.

And the Messiah will lead us
to victory, not you, Barabbas.

All evil and all the filth
of the world are burned

in the fires of Gahenna.

Please.

Please, don't run away.

Help me, please.

He's trapped in the fire.

He's burning.

(grunting)

Help!

Barabbas?

I need help, a little help.

A little help, a few coins.

I need help, just a coin
or two for my friend.

He's hurt.

I have no coins with me.

How else can I help you?

I need ointments, medicinal herbs.

(dramatic orchestral music)

You can take this.

This is too much.

Please, let me come with you.

It's better I go in alone.

This is no place for you.

Let me help, please.

Please.

(groans)

Burn.

Mmm.

Burn all the,

burn all the evil of the world.

(dramatic orchestral music)

[Man] Form up, form up, move!

(coins jingling)

I never would have dreamed
this land would yield us

so much.

Rome is never satisfied.

Today, two of our people
were stabbed in the back.

I was told.

They hate us more every day.

I know of an entire
village in the south burned

to the ground by your soldiers.

They were hiding zealots,
Claudia, the very same people

who would love to kill us.

I don't want you going
to the city on your own.

I'll give you an escort.

I don't need an escort.

Do you really believe
this Jesus of Nazareth

will protect you or the god you talk

so much about?

Hope.

(flies buzzing)

What are you doing?

Leave, get away from me.

Get away from me.

Move.

You don't want me anymore?

(dramatic orchestral music)

You make me forget who I am.

You make me weak.

I don't know why.

I can't allow that.

Don't accumulate riches in this world.

Woodworms and rust destroy
everything, and thieves

take whatever is left.

It's better to accumulate
your riches in heaven.

Thieves don't go there to steal.

Where you find your riches, there you will

also find your heart.

(suspenseful orchestral music)

We have dates and plates.

[Guard] This is not enough.

(grunts)

[Man] Stop them!

(grunting)

(shouting)

(suspenseful orchestral music)

(grunting)

(grunting)

(ominous orchestral music)

[Man] Drop your weapons.

Which of you is Barabbas?

That's him.

They killed him.

This is Barabbas.

Let the other one go.

He's the one we want.

(percussive orchestral music)

Our leader wants to see you.

(grunting)
(swords clanging)

Watch your enemy's eyes.

That way, you can see if he's afraid

or about to strike.

(grunts)
(swords clanging)

Your eyes are telling you're tired.

You must mask your tiredness.

Go.

Do you know who I am?

We need money for the war in Rome.

I took it from Rome.

It's mine.

We need more.

So go get it.

[Man] I need men like you.

You don't know who I am.

You are Barabbas.

There are so many stories about you.

You would need a hundred lives.

Who are you really?

I am who I am.

I know what you could become.

I like being Barabbas.

It is your life, but
how will you respond

when the Messiah summons
you to free our land?

Messiah is a fable for the defeated.

I don't believe in fables.

He will believe in you
and summon you to his side.

I'll worry about that
when and if that day comes.

This is for the money you stole for us.

It is a sign of the Essene, my people.

The Essene?

The Essene don't fight wars.

They don't kill.

They don't seek riches.

They wait.

They wait for a man who brings peace.

That's why I left them.

I believe in a warrior
Messiah who'll lead us

to ultimate victory.

You know the way to our camp now.

I should kill you.

I'm not afraid to die.

Give him wine and bread and let him go.

You will return.

Maybe not.

(light flute music)
(all chanting)

(laughs)

His name is Licinio Tellure.

In just a few years, he has become

one of the richest men in all Syria.

He is the son of a Roman general,

born and raised abroad,
and he's a big crook

like his father.

A valued client, I assume.

Huh.

Not even all my girls are enough for him.

He has asked me for
others and he pays double.

What's he doing in Jerusalem?

He has just returned from Leptis Magna.

They say that he and
the governor have agreed

to share their taxes, a mountain of gold,

which he keeps in his house.

Where is Esther?

You chased her away.

Now you want her back.

Shut up.

I bought her.

She's mine.

Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho.

She's yours and you don't
know what happened to her?

Ha.

She's the maid of some
carpenter in Nazareth.

He fools the people with his tricks,

and she, along with other
equally crazy women,

serves him hand and
foot, cleans everything.

(chuckling)

To think I wanted to
make her a prostitute.

(laughs)

You should have seen

the look on their faces.

I could not tell you.

(laughing)

[Man] Never seen him before in my life.

(dramatic orchestral music)

(laughing)
(chattering)

Come join us if you wish.

Barabbas, I told you you would return.

You said you needed money.

Not for me, for the struggle.

There's a mountain of gold.

The gold of Leptis Magna.

What do you know about it?

It's amazing what you can
learn simply by listening.

Meaning what?

Take it.

It's yours.

I can't do it alone.

You can't?

It's impossible.

So you need others?

I need you and your men.

We can share it equally.

And then what will you do?

More money, more wealth, more gold?

What about you?

More wars, more weapons, more blood?

I'm preparing the way
for he who will come.

The Messiah will free us
with his sword of fire.

This is my answer.

I don't know if it is what you seek.

Barabbas is not one of us,

but we need him as he needs us.

After that, we'll go our separate ways.

This man is a criminal!

His hands are covered in blood.

His life is a sacrilege.

And rather than accept him
among us, we should kill him.

The fires of Gahenna didn't work.

You want to try again?

(ominous orchestral music)

[Man] Enough!

Give me the knife.

No one tells me what to do.

You think you're free?

I am free!

You wanna be free?

You are a slave to
the violence within you.

It serves me well enough.

That is the way of the animal.

If you know when to
stop, then you're a man.

Didn't your father teach you that?

My...

forget it.

(light acoustic guitar music)
(wolf howling)

It was very easy for
you to talk like that.

I never had someone teach me

anything.

I never had a father.

Then you have much to learn.

Get some sleep.

Choose the best.

Me?

[Kedar] You know better than I do

what we're going up against.

Well, if we wanna to get
into Licino Tellure's villa

to steal his gold, we
have to become gladiators.

How many men will it take?

Three, not including us.

[Kedar] That's all?

If this works, the fewer, the better.

And if it doesn't?

We die.

Tell me who you want as
if you were the leader.

Well, these two

and him,

the one that brought me in.

Dan, Gad and Setur.

This is the house.

This is the temporary
arena they're building,

games for his rich friends.

All of the exits, all of the
guards are facing outward

to repel an attack from the outside.

But we, as gladiators, will
attack from the inside.

(suspenseful orchestral music)

So what do you do here?

I wash, clean, prepare the food for him.

And you, why are you here?

I don't know.

I wanted to see you.

Why?

I wanted to make sure you're all right.

Here with them, lots of things happen

that I don't understand.

I hear them talk.

I see the people who go to him.

It all seems so new.

Believe in nothing.

Those who believe in
something get hurt more.

(dramatic orchestral music)

(rooster crows)

Will you be back?

I don't know.

What I have to do, I might die.

The gold and

The gold?

Only fools die for gold.

Only fools live poor.

I'm no fool.

Barabbas, he teaches another way.

There is no other way.

There's only survival.

It's never been different, never will be.

You take as much as
you can while you live,

and then it's over and nothing

except, maybe, love.

(suspenseful orchestral music)
(swords clashing)

(men shouting)

(grunting)
(shouting)

The only thing

I truly care about, the only thing

is my reputation.

Ask anyone, from Gaul to
Numidia to Asia Minor,

they will all say

that the name of Druso
Pollione is a guarantee.

My gladiators must be prepared
to kill and be killed.

They asked me for five,
five worthy of the challenge

for this rich Roman's party.

(ominous orchestral music)

I don't want to know who you
are nor where you come from.

I don't care if you are
killers escaped from prison

or valorous soldiers.

But I want you to know that
this is your last chance.

(fly buzzing)

20,000 sesterces will go to the winner,

to he who is still standing after fighting

the great gladiators from Rome.

I want to see you in action,
so I may choose the very best.

The weapons are blunted.

I want to see viciousness
and determination,

but no blood.

Not yet anyway.

(grunting)
(shouting)

(suspenseful orchestral music)

(grunting)

(feet thudding)

(shouts)

(grunting)

(grunting)

Attack.

(grunting)

(groans)

Stop.

Stop!

It's enough.

I told you, it's enough!

Take him.

Wild animals like you can be useful,

but they must learn to
recognize their master.

I am your master.

Three days in the cell,
without food and water.

You shouldn't have done that.

He was going to kill you.

You almost ruined all of our plans.

The plan will fail without you.

You're wrong.

No one is indispensable.

Three of us can succeed.

Druso chose me and Dan.

What about Setur?

Setur is out, along
with one of the Nubians,

the two Thracians and the Syrian.

I managed to convince
Druso that without you,

the party would not live
up to its expectations.

You won't get another chance

to learn the lesson and to think,

to think before acting.

What if my plan fails?

What then?

Then you die.

Your men need you.

Too late.

The lord does not abandon his children

in their hour of need.

Tell me what you feel.

Feel?

Why?

By the time the sun
rises, we all might be dead.

Fear never worked for me.

I believe in force alone.

No one is alone, not if he
fights together with others.

(dramatic orchestral music)

You know what I want.

You'll get your gold.

Good.

Nothing else matters.

You're playing blind,
Barabbas, despite having

eyes to see with.

(shouting)

(laughing)

I just want you with me.

I told you I love you,
love you, love you so.

(laughs)

(all chattering)

Yeah!

(all cheering)
(all applauding)

(percussive music)

These who are about to die

salute you!

(crowd cheering)

Let the games begin!

Go, go, go, go, go.

Good luck.

Nothing happens by chance, Barabbas.

Go!

(ominous orchestral music)

(grunting)
(shouting)

Kill him!

(all cheering)

(audience applauding)

[Crowd] Kill, kill,
kill, kill, kill, kill.

(all cheering)

And now, from Rome,

Caius Turius.

(all cheering)

And from Jerusalem, Barabbas.

(all booing)
(laughing)

Let's see if you've learned anything.

(grunting)

(laughs)

(grunting)

Don't.

Don't do it.

(gasping)

(crowd booing)

No.

He killed him.

I did not signal.

He killed him.

He's an animal, my lord.

Uncontrollable.

He will fight again.

Now, put your last winner against him.

Now.

(ominous orchestral music)

Yes, my lord.

I will.

You will die for this.

Tonight, you will die.

Kedar.

Kedar.

Kill him.

(suspenseful orchestral music)

(all screaming)

(grunting)

(screams)

(door clicking)

Wait.

He's gone.
(door clicking)

(grunting)
(suspenseful orchestral music)

Stay down.

(grunting)

(grunts)

(horse neighing)

(groaning)

(dog barking)

(horse neighing)

(groans)

(grunts)

(groans)

The Romans don't even come
up here to collect the taxes.

And if they did, only the lord
is privy to man's actions.

(grunting)

Careful.

(groans)

(groaning)

This is where our paths separate.

I don't know when I'll see you again.

(dramatic orchestral music)

You're a better man
than you think, Barabbas.

You do have a destiny.

You must allow yourself to see it.

Go.

(panting)

[Barabbas] Dan, do
you believe in destiny?

[Dan] I believe in god,
and I believe that he knows

what he wants from each of us.

If that is destiny, then, yes, I believe.

(all screaming)
(suspenseful orchestral music)

(grunting)

[Guard] In here?

There is nothing.

We are poor people.

We have nothing to hide.

Commander, I beg you.

We keep the teachings of god in there.

(grunting)

(sobs)

(suspenseful orchestral music)

(dog barking)

(breathing heavily)

Blood begets blood.

(spitting)

I believe you have something I want.

(crowd shouting)

You're an adulteress,

admit it.

Go on, admit it now!

Yes, but please, have pity on me.

I have a small son.

(shouting)

(gasping)

I have a son.

No, please.

Please.

This woman was caught
committing adultery.

The law of Moses commands us to stone her.

You say you wish to
uphold law to the letter.

Tell us, what must we do?

Let he who is without
sin cast the first stone.

(dramatic orchestral music)

(singing in foreign language)

Stop.

Wait.

Pilate, you shouldn't be
seen with someone like me.

With you, I feel comfortable.

You don't judge me.

I don't mean to be rude,
but you don't seem happy.

You're the wife of the
governor, you have everything.

He was different when I married him.

He had dreams.

He encouraged me to dream.

Now, he lives off hate and fear.

He's tormented by Rome, by Judea, by all

his responsibilities.

He protects you.

It means he worries about you.

I'm just one of his many worries.

You shouldn't say that.

I'm sure he loves you.

(dramatic orchestral music)

I failed him.

I didn't give him what he
wanted most, what I wanted,

a child.

It was Jesus who gave me
a reason to hope again.

Thank you.

He frightens me.

[Pilate] Why?

The love he talks of.

It's not the love you
feel for another person.

It's a love that I'm afraid to understand.

It's too big.

You're in love, aren't you, Esther?

The man you saved.

I don't know where he is,
but I did see him again.

(laughs)

Tell me.

(swords clashing)
(grunting)

This is what I took from you at Cana.

You cannot erase the past.

What happened happened.

How would you restore the lives you took?

Save it for them.

(spitting)

That's my share.

I need nothing.

When you see Kedar, you tell him

Kedar has been captured.

The Romans have him.

The Romans have captured Kedar.

We need to go.

(suspenseful orchestral music)

[Barabbas] All right, mount up.

Come on, get up to you horses.

Move.

I call to you, oh, lord.

Listen to me, listen to my cry for help.

I raise my hands to you and
beg you to heed my prayer.

This is no time to pray.

He who has faith will see
the power of the Messiah.

(crowd shouting)

Oh, lord, my strength,

My rock, my fortress,
my shield, my savior.

(all screaming)

(grunting)

(grunting)

(breathing heavily)

(dramatic orchestral music)

You will lead us in battle again.

You are our hope.

I leave you my faith in the Messiah,

he will come to lead us.

I want you to know that with you,

I've seen what life would've been like

if I'd had a father.

(sighs)

Attacked by overwhelming enemy forces.

Better still, attacked with the complicity

of the local population by
overwhelming enemy forces.

I would have preferred
to die with my men.

A wonderful sentiment.

Untie me.

He left me alive so that you would know

that zealots will continue the struggle.

And if a leader falls,
others will be ready

to take up his sword.

Who?

Barabbas.

His name is Barabbas.

Barabbas, a dead man.

A gladiator?

I was told it was him.

Was he wounded?

I don't know, but it's
the law of the arena.

(dramatic orchestral music)

But it isn't god's law.

No, it isn't god's law.

Esther.

They killed him, didn't they?

(sobbing)

(children singing)
(laughing)

Thank god you're alive.

You're alive.

They saw you fight in the arena.

I was afraid I'd never see you again.

I'm here now.

And then one day he said to me,

"You will bear witness to me."

What does bear witness to me mean?

I don't know.

Ask him.

I've seen how you follow him around.

I've seen how you look at him.

[Esther] You're jealous.

I don't know the meaning
of the word jealous.

What do I have to be jealous of?

You owe me nothing.

I owe you more than you can imagine.

You do?

Good.

What does that mean?

I'm with child.

Child?

Our child.

Our child.

Esther,

this is no time for children.

I ask you nothing.

(dramatic orchestral music)

How can a man without
a home, a criminal bound

for a cross raise a child?

I will return to Jerusalem
and find somewhere to live.

You will come to me when you can.

I don't want him to know his father.

That is why I'm here.

The zealots need men that
are willing to fight.

I will let you talk to the men.

Thank you.

The word of the prophet Isaiah.

The spirit of the lord god is upon me.

He has chosen me to take
his message to the poor.

He sent me to proclaim the
release of the prisoners,

to restore sight to the
blind, to free the oppressed,

to announce the time in which
the laws will be favorable.

Today, for you who've heard me,

this prophecy will come true.

[Man] What are you saying,
that you are the Messiah?

[Man] Blasphemy.

(all clamoring)

[Man] Take him away!

Throw him out.

He's a liar.

[Barabbas] Are you Jesus of Nazareth?

And who are you?

I'm Barabbas of Jerusalem.

So are you also traveling to Jerusalem?

Is that where you going?

Well, don't, there's danger.

What danger?

The priests of the temple say that

the people believe in
you and they would follow

you anywhere.

How did you hear of this?

Our people are everywhere.

The zealots?

They say you want to be
crowned king of Israel.

And what do you think, Barabbas?

I think if that is true,
then everyone in this land

is ready to fight for you.

To fight.

Yes, fight, led by a
Messiah with a sword of fire.

Do you believe in the Messiah?

I believe in a leader who will come

to liberate his people.

And this Messiah is a warrior?

All over this land, there
are thousands of fires

of rebellion.

The people are just waiting for a sign.

What I say, what I do, is there for all

to hear and see.

Well, say the word and
you will be king of Israel.

No, my kingdom is not of this earth.

Did you not say that with you,

all the prophecies would be fulfilled?

I heard you.

My kingdom is not of this earth.

What are you saying?

It is here on earth
where we need a Messiah

who will fight for our freedom.

Do you not understand that?

Did you not say that you
were the son of the almighty?

My kingdom is not of this earth.

Charlatan.

You are not the Messiah.

You do not have a kingdom.

Master, we have to go.

You have nothing.

Politician.

You are a politician.

Those who believe will
wake up sooner or later.

Lord,

if you had been here,

my brother would still be alive.

Where did you bury him?

(all wailing)

[Woman] Lord.

Remove the stone.

Lord?

He's been in there for four days.

His body will have started to decompose.

Remove the stone.

(groaning)

(coughing)

Lazarus, come out.

(dramatic orchestral music)

(gasping)

[Man] It's Lazarus.

(all murmuring)

[Man] He's alive.

It's a miracle.

(all murmuring)

(gasping)

(gasping)

(dramatic orchestral music)

I've been expecting you.

They will never go out.

More will come tomorrow
and the days after.

They will light more and more
to keep the memory alive.

Memory of what?

What exactly happened here, Esther?

Jesus called for Lazarus
to come out of the tomb,

and he came back from the dead.

Then he was not dead.

I heard Jesus ask Martha,
that's Lazarus' sister,

"who do you think I am?"

And she answered,

"I believe you are the
Messiah, you're the son of god

who has come into the world."

Keep it.

Oh, thanks.

From the dead, Pontius, from the dead.

Raised from the dead.

What do you want me to
do, write to the emperor?

I will write to say that there
is a man here in Palestine

capable of raising the dead.

Is that what you want?

That Pilate becomes the
laughing stock of Rome?

That he's gone mad because of his failure

to maintain law and order.

That's all that bothers you.

It must bother me.

Too often, you forget
that I am the governor

of these lands.

(dramatic orchestral music)

Sometimes I'd rather
not talk to the governor.

Sometimes I wish I could
talk to the man who took me

at 16 years of age from my father's house

and who swore to love me.

I've never stopped loving you.

(laughing)

In spite of everything,
is that what you mean?

In spite of a fact that I am
no longer the woman I was?

And now you think I've gone mad.

I wholly believe

that we all need strong
motives to survive,

and you need to believe
in that man's miracles.

But what this Jesus of
Nazareth does, what he says,

true or false, it's a fire consuming

everything in its path.

And we must stop him,
before he consumes us, too.

Do you really love me?

Yes, I do.

Then promise me you'll
do nothing to harm him.

I will do as you wish.

(dramatic orchestral music)
