1
00:00:06,100 --> 00:00:08,220
(dark music)

2
00:01:50,380 --> 00:01:51,940
(outcry)

3
00:01:59,300 --> 00:02:01,180
(dark music)

4
00:02:30,340 --> 00:02:32,180
(quiet, eerie music)

5
00:04:00,220 --> 00:04:03,080
Your Highness. A messenger from Nancy.

6
00:04:04,060 --> 00:04:06,540
He has news from the Duke, your father.

7
00:04:07,940 --> 00:04:09,820
(gloomy music)

8
00:04:39,980 --> 00:04:41,260
Mary.

9
00:04:44,540 --> 00:04:48,180
Your father, my husband,

10
00:04:50,020 --> 00:04:51,620
is no more.

11
00:04:55,580 --> 00:04:57,420
(quiet music)

12
00:05:10,700 --> 00:05:13,180
From now on you are Duchess of Burgundy.

13
00:05:14,940 --> 00:05:17,980
Everyone will try
to take your land.

14
00:05:18,820 --> 00:05:20,140
And you too.

15
00:05:23,820 --> 00:05:25,660
(suspenseful music)

16
00:05:30,780 --> 00:05:32,540
(A bell rings.)

17
00:05:32,700 --> 00:05:34,980
(bird peeping)

18
00:05:59,840 --> 00:06:02,200
Charles the Bold fell before Nancy.

19
00:06:02,220 --> 00:06:04,620
In the fight against the lower association.

20
00:06:06,100 --> 00:06:08,180
Do you realize what that means?

21
00:06:08,540 --> 00:06:09,820
What?

22
00:06:09,840 --> 00:06:12,300
That perhaps our misery is at an end.

23
00:06:12,340 --> 00:06:14,100
Through you, Maximilian.

24
00:06:17,580 --> 00:06:19,900
Do you realize what that means too?

25
00:06:19,940 --> 00:06:21,900
Your life is now in danger.

26
00:06:25,020 --> 00:06:28,540
You can now enter the castle
under no circumstances leave.

27
00:06:29,060 --> 00:06:31,100
(quiet, exciting music)

28
00:07:03,540 --> 00:07:05,020
(horse snort)

29
00:07:31,740 --> 00:07:33,380
(Man) Count Le Daim.

30
00:07:50,700 --> 00:07:52,180
Majesty.

31
00:08:02,700 --> 00:08:07,180
Your advice, the Duke's army in the
Fighting Bergen was very good.

32
00:08:07,220 --> 00:08:10,060
His knights are
frozen in their armor.

33
00:08:10,580 --> 00:08:12,380
You foresaw this.

34
00:08:12,820 --> 00:08:16,900
And also that his raging anger
would lead to his downfall.

35
00:08:16,940 --> 00:08:19,820
You have to have someone to do this
already very close.

36
00:08:20,420 --> 00:08:22,820
France owes you a debt of gratitude.

37
00:08:24,220 --> 00:08:25,780
Who does the helmet belong to?

38
00:08:29,260 --> 00:08:33,500
It belongs to Charles the Bold, Count
of Charolais, Duke of Burgundy,

39
00:08:34,380 --> 00:08:37,220
of all the cities of Flanders
has eaten empty.

40
00:08:38,300 --> 00:08:40,260
Like a pig.
(He grunts.)

41
00:08:40,340 --> 00:08:43,300
And now he himself is being eaten,
from the maggots.

42
00:08:45,380 --> 00:08:49,740
Now the Austrians want each other
get his country through a wedding,

43
00:08:49,780 --> 00:08:51,980
but it won't come to that.

44
00:08:53,300 --> 00:08:54,780
Why not?

45
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,360
Because Burgundy is our fiefdom.

46
00:08:57,460 --> 00:09:01,300
Charles always fought France
and refused the oath of fealty.

47
00:09:01,340 --> 00:09:04,940
Do you think that we?
have no claim to Burgundy?

48
00:09:04,980 --> 00:09:07,300
I'm not a lawyer.
- Even.

49
00:09:13,820 --> 00:09:16,060
You will marry Mary of Burgundy.

50
00:09:18,740 --> 00:09:23,100
I want the citizens of Ghent
corner their Duchess,

51
00:09:23,140 --> 00:09:25,060
like a cat to a mouse.

52
00:09:25,900 --> 00:09:28,580
This is your mission.
You leave immediately.

53
00:09:29,260 --> 00:09:30,660
And Maximilian?

54
00:09:31,540 --> 00:09:33,660
My men will take care of him.

55
00:09:34,060 --> 00:09:36,220
(passionate moans)

56
00:09:45,820 --> 00:09:47,700
(He groans.)

57
00:09:49,980 --> 00:09:51,740
(They breathe heavily.)

58
00:10:13,060 --> 00:10:14,820
I can hear your heart.

59
00:10:17,100 --> 00:10:18,460
Thank God.

60
00:10:24,780 --> 00:10:26,220
What are you thinking about?

61
00:10:30,780 --> 00:10:32,140
Maximilian?

62
00:10:33,620 --> 00:10:34,900
Of nothing.

63
00:10:36,140 --> 00:10:37,500
Is she beautiful?

64
00:10:40,380 --> 00:10:41,740
Who?

65
00:10:42,740 --> 00:10:44,540
Mary of Burgundy.

66
00:10:47,620 --> 00:10:49,340
How should I know that?

67
00:10:51,300 --> 00:10:53,300
Everyone says she's beautiful.

68
00:11:04,460 --> 00:11:06,660
(quietly) Nobody is as beautiful as you.

69
00:11:16,060 --> 00:11:17,460
Liar.

70
00:11:19,980 --> 00:11:23,380
If you don't believe me, believe him.

71
00:11:23,860 --> 00:11:26,180
He has fallen away from the faith.

72
00:11:32,020 --> 00:11:33,780
Ask him again tomorrow.

73
00:11:39,420 --> 00:11:43,260
Where are you going?
- Hunting, with Polheim.

74
00:11:44,860 --> 00:11:48,020
The emperor has forbidden you
to leave the castle.

75
00:11:50,100 --> 00:11:52,240
Yes, and I don't give a shit about that.

76
00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:58,820
(quiet, exciting music)

77
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,740
Are you finally finished?
- Secure.

78
00:12:37,420 --> 00:12:39,620
(Pigs grunt and squeal.)

79
00:12:41,940 --> 00:12:44,260
(loud squealing)
Psh, psh, psh!

80
00:12:46,900 --> 00:12:49,500
There you go. They like you, Polheim.

81
00:12:49,700 --> 00:12:51,200
Lick me.

82
00:12:52,740 --> 00:12:54,260
(tense music)

83
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:56,580
(impact)

84
00:13:45,780 --> 00:13:47,380
Everyone is waiting for you.

85
00:13:50,060 --> 00:13:52,340
Did you love him, my father?

86
00:13:52,860 --> 00:13:56,800
You have to love your husband,
otherwise you will lose your mind.

87
00:13:58,820 --> 00:14:01,260
Then you can choose what you feel?

88
00:14:02,380 --> 00:14:05,620
I hardly saw him.
He was often in the field.

89
00:14:07,740 --> 00:14:09,140
What luck.

90
00:14:12,940 --> 00:14:15,020
I'll wait for you in the throne room.

91
00:14:20,580 --> 00:14:23,900
And what do you think?
Can you force yourself to have feelings?

92
00:14:24,940 --> 00:14:26,380
As a woman, sure.

93
00:14:28,300 --> 00:14:29,740
And as a man?

94
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:32,960
Men are like dogs,
When you feed them

95
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,940
and sometimes is nice to them,
then they wag their tails.

96
00:14:37,020 --> 00:14:39,620
Full of love.
They can't do anything else.

97
00:14:40,100 --> 00:14:42,740
You just have to
choose the right one.

98
00:14:44,660 --> 00:14:46,980
Your world is very simple.
- No.

99
00:14:47,940 --> 00:14:50,920
Because the dogs choose us
and not the other way around.

100
00:14:52,540 --> 00:14:54,040
(held music)

101
00:15:47,300 --> 00:15:49,220
My dear stepdaughter.

102
00:15:49,860 --> 00:15:52,180
Dear stepmother. Dowager Duchess.

103
00:15:52,940 --> 00:15:54,540
(quiet music)

104
00:16:13,860 --> 00:16:16,140
Burgundy is going through a difficult time.

105
00:16:18,980 --> 00:16:22,180
My beloved husband, Charles the Bold,

106
00:16:22,980 --> 00:16:26,780
Your rightful Duke,
fell in a brave fight.

107
00:16:28,140 --> 00:16:31,180
Our law says
that only one can rule.

108
00:16:32,140 --> 00:16:34,980
His only child, Mary of Burgundy.

109
00:16:35,820 --> 00:16:37,900
(held music)

110
00:17:12,900 --> 00:17:14,380
The Duke is dead.

111
00:17:14,820 --> 00:17:16,580
Long live the Duchess!

112
00:17:32,580 --> 00:17:33,980
Rise up!

113
00:17:38,380 --> 00:17:41,380
Monsieur de Brimeu,
Monsieur de la Marche,

114
00:17:41,420 --> 00:17:43,900
I confirm you as my advisors.

115
00:17:46,060 --> 00:17:48,860
Monsieur Hugonet, my father's chancellor,

116
00:17:48,900 --> 00:17:50,880
You remain my chancellor.

117
00:17:52,620 --> 00:17:56,300
Gentlemen of the clergy, citizens of Ghent,

118
00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,660
I thank you for that,
that you are here - with me.

119
00:18:01,360 --> 00:18:03,980
Many others are
fled to their castles,

120
00:18:04,020 --> 00:18:06,020
to wait and see what will happen.

121
00:18:07,940 --> 00:18:09,780
Our army was destroyed.

122
00:18:10,620 --> 00:18:12,540
Rumors spread.

123
00:18:12,580 --> 00:18:16,180
Some say that France
wants to take my land.

124
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,620
Others say I have to get married soon,

125
00:18:18,660 --> 00:18:21,940
because the country needs again
a duke, a man.

126
00:18:23,660 --> 00:18:25,900
Many want me as their wife,

127
00:18:25,940 --> 00:18:28,940
because of my husband
I'm entitled to all my wealth.

128
00:18:30,460 --> 00:18:32,220
So what am I going to do?

129
00:18:33,140 --> 00:18:36,220
I'm telling you:
I will make you happy.

130
00:18:36,380 --> 00:18:39,260
If you are a human
want to make you happy,

131
00:18:39,420 --> 00:18:41,980
then add nothing
to his riches,

132
00:18:42,140 --> 00:18:44,860
but take from him
some of his wishes.

133
00:18:44,900 --> 00:18:47,980
I become the Duchy of Burgundy
rule alone

134
00:18:48,460 --> 00:18:50,780
and not take any of you as husbands.

135
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:55,760
My father may be dead, but
His blood flows in my veins.

136
00:18:57,340 --> 00:19:00,440
And if that's not enough for you,
then tell me.

137
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:02,540
Say it to my face.

138
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,100
(dark music)

139
00:19:10,180 --> 00:19:11,500
(quietly) Come on.

140
00:19:26,660 --> 00:19:29,060
Mr. von Egmond, are you disappointed?

141
00:19:29,380 --> 00:19:31,700
How could I?
You are full of grace.

142
00:19:31,860 --> 00:19:33,420
I am very ordinary.

143
00:19:33,460 --> 00:19:35,900
There is nothing ordinary about you, Duchess.

144
00:19:35,940 --> 00:19:37,220
Then you believe

145
00:19:37,260 --> 00:19:40,860
that high birth alone is enough,
to be exceptional?

146
00:19:40,900 --> 00:19:42,940
No.
- And then what is it?

147
00:19:43,020 --> 00:19:44,740
I recognized your soul.

148
00:19:45,660 --> 00:19:48,060
Wonderful. And I yours.

149
00:19:50,940 --> 00:19:53,300
You are the new Duke of Guelders,

150
00:19:53,340 --> 00:19:55,740
as I have heard, monsieur.

151
00:19:55,780 --> 00:19:58,780
Although you tried
To murder your father

152
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,480
and to life imprisonment
was convicted.

153
00:20:01,500 --> 00:20:04,340
What a climb!
I congratulate you on that!

154
00:20:04,380 --> 00:20:06,820
Yes, times are changing.

155
00:20:07,220 --> 00:20:11,500
Yes, only we never change.
Not true?

156
00:20:12,460 --> 00:20:14,220
(dark music)

157
00:20:51,500 --> 00:20:55,260
Would you have thought that?
That Charles the Bold will ever be defeated?

158
00:20:55,660 --> 00:20:57,980
He got what he deserved.

159
00:20:58,740 --> 00:21:01,260
He was constantly at war, against everyone.

160
00:21:01,940 --> 00:21:03,980
And what does he get out of it? Nothing.

161
00:21:04,940 --> 00:21:08,420
Now he's dead,
like those he defeated.

162
00:21:08,460 --> 00:21:10,460
What else could he have done?

163
00:21:10,940 --> 00:21:13,340
Produce children, especially sons.

164
00:21:15,980 --> 00:21:18,100
He made his country great.

165
00:21:19,820 --> 00:21:21,340
With the sword.

166
00:21:22,500 --> 00:21:24,940
I wish my father was like that.
- How?

167
00:21:25,780 --> 00:21:28,260
Brave.
- Is brave better than smart?

168
00:21:30,260 --> 00:21:32,340
Does one exclude the other?

169
00:21:34,860 --> 00:21:38,180
Your father wants
that you marry Mary of Burgundy,

170
00:21:38,220 --> 00:21:41,260
before someone else does it.
You do realize that?

171
00:21:43,380 --> 00:21:45,620
Don't worry about my head.

172
00:21:47,220 --> 00:21:48,780
(quiet music)

173
00:22:11,820 --> 00:22:14,220
You cannot rule without a husband.

174
00:22:15,360 --> 00:22:16,580
But.

175
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,540
No, Burgundy is a man's fiefdom,
as you know.

176
00:22:19,780 --> 00:22:22,740
My father died in battle
for our country.

177
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:27,060
Do you think that I am France
just bend? Without a fight?

178
00:22:32,420 --> 00:22:34,060
You're just like him.

179
00:22:36,500 --> 00:22:38,260
Quick-tempered and proud.

180
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,020
I barely knew him.

181
00:22:42,820 --> 00:22:46,580
He loved you, I know that for sure.

182
00:22:48,700 --> 00:22:50,680
And he was very proud of you.

183
00:22:55,300 --> 00:22:56,940
I miss him so much.

184
00:22:58,080 --> 00:22:59,560
(quiet music)

185
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:32,720
(loud breathing)

186
00:23:38,660 --> 00:23:40,580
Get up, it's time.

187
00:23:47,220 --> 00:23:48,740
(He groans.)

188
00:23:56,540 --> 00:23:58,420
(quiet, dark music)

189
00:24:10,540 --> 00:24:12,540
(quiet horse snorting)

190
00:24:35,780 --> 00:24:37,540
(menacing music)

191
00:24:37,900 --> 00:24:39,780
(He groans.)

192
00:24:44,860 --> 00:24:46,300
(groan)

193
00:24:53,340 --> 00:24:55,120
(menacing music)

194
00:25:04,420 --> 00:25:06,420
(He screams.)

195
00:25:14,500 --> 00:25:16,220
(battle cries)

196
00:25:16,780 --> 00:25:18,180
Run!

197
00:25:19,420 --> 00:25:21,260
(suspenseful music)

198
00:25:22,740 --> 00:25:24,620
(fighting sounds)

199
00:25:27,660 --> 00:25:29,420
(neigh)

200
00:25:30,340 --> 00:25:32,180
(suspenseful music)

201
00:25:49,020 --> 00:25:50,300
Hey!

202
00:25:53,540 --> 00:25:55,880
(He breathes heavily.)

203
00:26:12,460 --> 00:26:14,300
(suspenseful music)

204
00:26:26,260 --> 00:26:28,100
(quiet, eerie music)

205
00:26:54,300 --> 00:26:55,900
(loud breathing)

206
00:26:57,300 --> 00:26:59,280
(quiet music)

207
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:05,260
(He groans.)

208
00:27:46,620 --> 00:27:48,420
(dramatic music)

209
00:27:57,820 --> 00:27:59,140
Your Highness!

210
00:28:00,340 --> 00:28:01,780
Master Rudolfer.

211
00:28:02,540 --> 00:28:05,060
Squire!
- They attacked us.

212
00:28:05,900 --> 00:28:07,540
The Black Army!

213
00:28:08,660 --> 00:28:10,300
(quiet music)

214
00:28:22,940 --> 00:28:25,580
Polheim! I don't know where he is.

215
00:28:28,420 --> 00:28:29,860
Bring him home.

216
00:28:46,540 --> 00:28:48,460
(dark music)

217
00:28:49,060 --> 00:28:50,740
(Seagulls screech.)

218
00:28:56,220 --> 00:28:57,900
(distant neigh)

219
00:29:13,740 --> 00:29:15,340
Monsieur de Commynes.

220
00:29:15,380 --> 00:29:19,060
I'm Francois Coppenhole.
Jan Coppenhole's brother.

221
00:29:19,100 --> 00:29:22,180
I am very pleased,
Getting to know you, monsieur.

222
00:29:33,620 --> 00:29:35,260
(dark music)

223
00:29:46,100 --> 00:29:49,180
Monsieur Jan Coppenhole,
haven't seen for a long time.

224
00:29:49,220 --> 00:29:50,780
Philippe de Commynes.

225
00:29:50,820 --> 00:29:54,660
If you don't know him, he used to be
Advisor to Charles the Bold.

226
00:29:54,700 --> 00:29:57,500
Then he's in time
changed sides.

227
00:29:57,860 --> 00:29:59,800
The representatives of the guilds.

228
00:30:18,380 --> 00:30:21,540
From now on everything belongs here
the French crown.

229
00:30:21,820 --> 00:30:24,100
What? How come?

230
00:30:25,340 --> 00:30:28,620
How come? Because Burgundy
is a French male fiefdom.

231
00:30:28,660 --> 00:30:30,460
Only one man can rule

232
00:30:30,500 --> 00:30:33,820
otherwise the fief falls
back to the crown of France.

233
00:30:33,860 --> 00:30:38,420
Unfortunately, Burgundy is no more
ruled by a man, right?

234
00:30:38,700 --> 00:30:42,100
You know who in this country
works? That's you.

235
00:30:42,620 --> 00:30:44,020
The citizens.

236
00:30:44,580 --> 00:30:46,980
While the nobility lives at your expense.

237
00:30:49,020 --> 00:30:52,060
You must demand your rights.
- What rights?

238
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:55,140
Your civil rights, these for example.

239
00:31:14,980 --> 00:31:16,260
Hmm.

240
00:31:17,660 --> 00:31:20,420
Mary of Burgundy
will never agree to this.

241
00:31:20,460 --> 00:31:23,660
That's why you will
raise against your Duchess.

242
00:31:23,860 --> 00:31:25,540
A riot?
- No.

243
00:31:25,620 --> 00:31:29,260
Uprisings are suppressed,
this should be permanent.

244
00:31:29,300 --> 00:31:32,140
A country,
that is governed by its citizens.

245
00:31:32,180 --> 00:31:35,780
You want to fight them
God-given order?

246
00:31:35,820 --> 00:31:37,860
I'm sure he understands us.

247
00:31:40,020 --> 00:31:42,900
So we should become like you?
Traitor?

248
00:31:43,220 --> 00:31:47,820
No, you should just stay
what you are: merchants.

249
00:31:47,940 --> 00:31:51,020
Under France's rule
there are neither wars,

250
00:31:51,100 --> 00:31:53,940
there are still war taxes,
just free trade.

251
00:31:54,580 --> 00:31:56,620
And what does King Ludwig get out of it?

252
00:31:56,660 --> 00:31:58,900
Excise duties and customs duties within the usual framework

253
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:02,280
and the certainty,
that you swear loyalty to him.

254
00:32:02,820 --> 00:32:05,780
The king loves
the cities and its citizens,

255
00:32:06,940 --> 00:32:09,460
as long as they follow his rules.

256
00:32:12,220 --> 00:32:13,780
Think about it.

257
00:32:14,260 --> 00:32:15,980
(quiet, dark music)

258
00:32:23,540 --> 00:32:25,420
Your brother went hunting.

259
00:32:26,540 --> 00:32:28,780
I have given the strictest instructions

260
00:32:28,820 --> 00:32:32,820
that he doesn't leave the castle
allowed because it is dangerous.

261
00:32:34,180 --> 00:32:36,300
But he's obviously deaf.

262
00:32:37,940 --> 00:32:40,060
He is my only son.

263
00:32:40,780 --> 00:32:44,020
Who will rule after us?
when he is no more?

264
00:32:45,660 --> 00:32:48,300
Do you understand,
how important this is for us,

265
00:32:48,340 --> 00:32:50,620
that he obeys and stays alive?

266
00:32:55,740 --> 00:32:58,400
So he encountered the Black Army.

267
00:32:58,580 --> 00:32:59,900
Hungary?

268
00:33:01,020 --> 00:33:02,320
I believe.

269
00:33:02,420 --> 00:33:03,820
Do you believe?

270
00:33:04,140 --> 00:33:08,500
And now
your good chamberlain is missing, Polheim.

271
00:33:11,300 --> 00:33:14,900
Are you too stupid to make sense?
to understand our orders?

272
00:33:15,620 --> 00:33:18,500
Or are you too stubborn
to obey us?

273
00:33:28,660 --> 00:33:32,500
You remember Mr. Fugger
from the lily from Augsburg?

274
00:33:34,340 --> 00:33:36,940
He brought news
from the markets.

275
00:33:37,020 --> 00:33:39,100
Explain the problem to my son.

276
00:33:39,540 --> 00:33:41,420
It's about your clothes.

277
00:33:42,700 --> 00:33:46,340
All wool fabrics that you
wears on his body, come from Burgundy.

278
00:33:47,140 --> 00:33:49,540
Ghent is the center of the cloth trade.

279
00:33:50,260 --> 00:33:52,920
He has the land
made immeasurably rich.

280
00:33:53,540 --> 00:33:55,180
Yes, and you.

281
00:33:55,940 --> 00:33:58,220
Burgundy was always France's enemy.

282
00:33:58,380 --> 00:34:02,240
When our opponents are in control
win over the cloth trade,

283
00:34:02,260 --> 00:34:05,100
let's fall deep, together.

284
00:34:06,340 --> 00:34:08,220
And that needs to be prevented.

285
00:34:27,700 --> 00:34:31,340
Our son almost died.
- Let him go.

286
00:34:31,380 --> 00:34:33,660
He helped you with the horses.

287
00:34:33,740 --> 00:34:35,500
He's just a body servant.

288
00:34:36,100 --> 00:34:39,100
You are so extremely thoughtless
like your mother.

289
00:34:39,780 --> 00:34:42,580
And besides, yes
only interested in nonsense,

290
00:34:42,620 --> 00:34:45,380
in hunting, in tournaments, in dancing.

291
00:34:45,420 --> 00:34:47,980
My mother is
died of bitterness,

292
00:34:48,020 --> 00:34:51,060
because she was locked up here.
Give me 1000 men

293
00:34:51,100 --> 00:34:54,260
and I will become our enemies
take flight.

294
00:34:54,300 --> 00:34:57,940
Then we can leave the castle,
without being afraid.

295
00:34:58,380 --> 00:34:59,960
1000 men.

296
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:01,640
And then?

297
00:35:01,820 --> 00:35:05,220
Then we will fight and win.
- You definitely, yes.

298
00:35:05,260 --> 00:35:09,740
You are emperor of a country in which
You no longer dare to set foot,

299
00:35:09,780 --> 00:35:12,300
because you prefer to hesitate rather than act.

300
00:35:12,340 --> 00:35:14,700
Does that make you proud, father?
Not me!

301
00:35:27,580 --> 00:35:31,060
Take a good look at him.
One day you will rule.

302
00:35:31,100 --> 00:35:34,660
Every action you take
has consequences.

303
00:35:36,300 --> 00:35:39,340
Sometimes just for one, often for many.

304
00:35:41,580 --> 00:35:44,340
From now on you are ostracized
in our kingdom.

305
00:35:44,380 --> 00:35:46,740
Everything that is yours falls to us.

306
00:35:46,780 --> 00:35:49,980
You will go wherever,
free as a bird.

307
00:36:00,180 --> 00:36:01,800
And you go too.

308
00:36:07,340 --> 00:36:11,740
Mr. Fugger from the Lily, you
travels to Ghent to see Mary of Burgundy

309
00:36:11,780 --> 00:36:14,180
and lays on my behalf

310
00:36:14,220 --> 00:36:17,820
the conditions of marriage
between her and my son.

311
00:36:17,900 --> 00:36:20,380
A herald will announce your coming.

312
00:36:20,660 --> 00:36:21,980
Good.

313
00:36:28,300 --> 00:36:29,740
Kunigunde?

314
00:36:42,060 --> 00:36:44,340
You know that Hungary is harassing us.

315
00:36:47,300 --> 00:36:49,100
They are stronger than us,

316
00:36:49,180 --> 00:36:52,500
and the electors don't think so
to help us.

317
00:36:55,820 --> 00:36:59,240
There is only one,
that can save Austria.

318
00:36:59,460 --> 00:37:00,820
You.

319
00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:04,660
I expect you to give your contribution
do as we all do,

320
00:37:05,060 --> 00:37:06,540
for Habsburg.

321
00:37:07,780 --> 00:37:10,760
I will call you Matthias Corvinus
give to wife.

322
00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:13,620
You will be Queen of the Hungarians.

323
00:37:16,140 --> 00:37:17,980
(dark music)

324
00:37:26,020 --> 00:37:27,820
(A bird caws.)

325
00:37:58,180 --> 00:37:59,740
(dark music)

326
00:38:44,340 --> 00:38:45,660
(cracking)

327
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,560
(quiet, exciting music)

328
00:39:49,940 --> 00:39:51,780
(quiet music)

329
00:40:12,100 --> 00:40:15,980
Nobody is allowed to
to give you quarters in this country.

330
00:40:16,020 --> 00:40:19,100
Neither food nor drink
shall be given to you.

331
00:40:19,140 --> 00:40:22,740
Anyone can take your life
as he pleases.

332
00:40:23,180 --> 00:40:26,060
All your possessions
falls to the House of Habsburg.

333
00:40:26,700 --> 00:40:29,180
Do you want to go with him or stay?

334
00:40:30,740 --> 00:40:33,420
The emperor lets you
choose in his goodness.

335
00:40:36,580 --> 00:40:38,340
(He breathes frantically.)

336
00:40:48,900 --> 00:40:50,500
(He whimpers.)

337
00:40:51,060 --> 00:40:52,940
(quiet, dramatic music)

338
00:41:13,460 --> 00:41:15,220
(horse snort)

339
00:41:32,940 --> 00:41:35,380
Do you have the necessary letters of safe conduct?
- Yes.

340
00:41:36,180 --> 00:41:39,060
Give this letter
the Duchess of Burgundy,

341
00:41:39,100 --> 00:41:42,700
personally, not to anyone else.

342
00:41:42,860 --> 00:41:44,260
(neigh)

343
00:41:44,940 --> 00:41:46,900
The cowardly dogs have fled.

344
00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:54,540
Swiss?

345
00:41:55,100 --> 00:41:56,620
They only fight for money.

346
00:41:57,240 --> 00:41:59,800
Someone paid well
very good actually.

347
00:41:59,880 --> 00:42:02,720
Not even the horses
took them with them.

348
00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:05,380
French things Swiss.

349
00:42:05,860 --> 00:42:08,500
Who knew
that he goes hunting?

350
00:42:08,540 --> 00:42:11,340
And who betrayed them
where can you find him?

351
00:42:11,380 --> 00:42:13,020
The forests are big.

352
00:42:22,540 --> 00:42:23,940
Polheim.

353
00:42:25,340 --> 00:42:27,940
How did you manage it?
to escape?

354
00:42:28,700 --> 00:42:31,040
Apparently I wasn't important enough.

355
00:42:35,820 --> 00:42:37,780
(dark music)

356
00:43:04,660 --> 00:43:06,460
(uneasy music)

357
00:43:26,460 --> 00:43:28,020
(neigh)

358
00:43:28,420 --> 00:43:30,740
(fast-paced music)

359
00:43:39,380 --> 00:43:41,220
(screams)

360
00:43:48,340 --> 00:43:49,620
(neigh)

361
00:44:05,060 --> 00:44:06,740
(uneasy music)

362
00:45:18,140 --> 00:45:20,100
(slow music)

363
00:45:40,940 --> 00:45:43,620
(neigh)

364
00:45:45,180 --> 00:45:47,140
(uneasy music)

365
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:03,180
(ringing)

366
00:46:04,340 --> 00:46:06,020
(bird peeping)

367
00:46:16,460 --> 00:46:19,180
Isn't he dressed too warmly?
He's glowing.

368
00:46:19,500 --> 00:46:20,980
That's the fever.

369
00:46:21,140 --> 00:46:22,820
(The baby whimpers.)

370
00:46:23,140 --> 00:46:24,700
What do the doctors say?

371
00:46:26,260 --> 00:46:28,220
They argue all the time.

372
00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:32,900
I'm scared.

373
00:46:33,860 --> 00:46:35,580
Please not him too.

374
00:46:38,740 --> 00:46:41,140
François is just a little sick.

375
00:46:41,220 --> 00:46:44,180
The doctors say
that he will get well again soon.

376
00:46:46,620 --> 00:46:48,620
We have to trust God.

377
00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:51,620
Like Job?

378
00:46:53,580 --> 00:46:55,880
He has mercy on us, you will see.

379
00:46:56,980 --> 00:46:58,700
A message, Your Majesty.

380
00:47:16,580 --> 00:47:18,500
Maximilian survived.

381
00:47:19,140 --> 00:47:23,380
The emperor wants to go with Maria von
Burgundy enter into negotiations,

382
00:47:23,420 --> 00:47:26,060
about an imminent wedding
with his son.

383
00:47:28,820 --> 00:47:32,300
He sends Ulrich Fugger,
a merchant from Augsburg.

384
00:47:33,980 --> 00:47:35,380
This has to stop.

385
00:47:35,860 --> 00:47:37,140
Yes.

386
00:47:38,180 --> 00:47:39,620
It will too.

387
00:47:41,980 --> 00:47:43,740
(disturbing music)

388
00:47:50,260 --> 00:47:53,000
I will you
send my answer.

389
00:47:58,140 --> 00:48:02,180
The emperor writes that my father
the connection between our countries

390
00:48:02,220 --> 00:48:06,180
agreed years ago
by Maximilian marrying me.

391
00:48:06,820 --> 00:48:08,860
Yes, that's true.
- Oh really?

392
00:48:09,660 --> 00:48:12,260
But my father hated the emperor,

393
00:48:12,340 --> 00:48:15,700
because he is completely penniless -
and greedy at the same time.

394
00:48:15,780 --> 00:48:19,420
He would bleed my country dry,
to save his.

395
00:48:19,500 --> 00:48:23,780
This is typical for negotiations
to send a merchant.

396
00:48:23,820 --> 00:48:27,100
That's out of the question.
- Don't be so snooty!

397
00:48:27,340 --> 00:48:30,540
You just spit big sounds,
if you have good cards.

398
00:48:30,940 --> 00:48:34,140
With a bad hand
you should rather listen

399
00:48:34,180 --> 00:48:36,740
wait for his chance
and smile politely.

400
00:48:36,780 --> 00:48:38,580
The Dowager Duchess is right.

401
00:48:38,660 --> 00:48:42,660
If you still have the emperor
making an enemy serves no one.

402
00:48:43,140 --> 00:48:45,740
Politics is always a business,
Your Highness.

403
00:48:45,940 --> 00:48:48,620
Frederick needs money to rule.

404
00:48:48,660 --> 00:48:52,260
And you need a ruler,
who is on your side.

405
00:48:52,300 --> 00:48:54,520
Someone your enemies fear.

406
00:48:55,120 --> 00:48:57,400
That would be beneficial for both sides.

407
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:01,320
All right.

408
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:05,940
We will receive this Fugger,
out of pure politeness.

409
00:49:05,980 --> 00:49:09,500
But the Austrians should
don't get your hopes up.

410
00:49:09,540 --> 00:49:11,460
Just like the other applicants.

411
00:49:11,540 --> 00:49:14,780
How many men do we need
to defend ourselves?

412
00:49:14,900 --> 00:49:17,340
Against France? 20,000.

413
00:49:18,620 --> 00:49:21,980
And how can Burgundy
finance such a large army?

414
00:49:22,020 --> 00:49:25,140
This will be difficult
we depend on taxes.

415
00:49:25,180 --> 00:49:27,980
And the citizens refuse
to pay them.

416
00:49:28,020 --> 00:49:29,940
Then get her here as quickly as possible.

417
00:49:30,020 --> 00:49:32,860
tell them
her duchess demands accountability.

418
00:49:35,900 --> 00:49:37,540
(quiet, dark music)

419
00:50:25,900 --> 00:50:28,580
Citizens of Ghent,
we must prepare an army,

420
00:50:28,620 --> 00:50:31,420
about our country
to defend against France.

421
00:50:32,500 --> 00:50:35,780
Burgundy urgently needs money,
even a lot of money.

422
00:50:36,700 --> 00:50:38,300
But you are late.

423
00:50:38,780 --> 00:50:41,900
Your father has more
collected in war taxes

424
00:50:41,940 --> 00:50:43,620
than all the dukes before him.

425
00:50:43,660 --> 00:50:47,300
Because of him you all have so much
Accumulated wealth and power

426
00:50:47,340 --> 00:50:48,900
like no citizen before you.

427
00:50:48,940 --> 00:50:51,420
Then it's time for us to have a say.

428
00:51:03,540 --> 00:51:04,940
And what is that?

429
00:51:05,500 --> 00:51:07,020
Read.

430
00:51:09,580 --> 00:51:12,460
We, the representatives
of the States General, demand

431
00:51:12,500 --> 00:51:14,420
that a council be set up

432
00:51:14,460 --> 00:51:17,300
who helps you on political issues
stands to the side.

433
00:51:17,620 --> 00:51:19,540
The Great Privilege.

434
00:51:22,740 --> 00:51:24,420
What does this mean?

435
00:51:25,660 --> 00:51:27,820
Without the consent of the Grand Council

436
00:51:27,860 --> 00:51:30,420
no new taxes are allowed
be collected.

437
00:51:30,460 --> 00:51:34,660
Likewise, you are only allowed to use hers
consent to enter into the covenant of marriage.

438
00:51:34,700 --> 00:51:37,340
And they want to
its own jurisdiction.

439
00:51:38,620 --> 00:51:41,340
So you want to decide
who do I marry?

440
00:51:41,420 --> 00:51:43,900
Yes, this is a political decision.

441
00:51:43,940 --> 00:51:47,660
And who do you suggest?
- We know who we don't want.

442
00:51:48,660 --> 00:51:50,220
Austria.

443
00:51:50,460 --> 00:51:53,180
Because that would be war
with France mean.

444
00:51:53,220 --> 00:51:55,980
A war,
which we will not finance.

445
00:51:56,040 --> 00:51:59,300
Then you refuse
Your Duchess's support?

446
00:52:02,540 --> 00:52:05,460
I can understand you,
times are difficult.

447
00:52:05,940 --> 00:52:09,220
This is the perfect moment
for insolence.

448
00:52:09,260 --> 00:52:11,580
They didn't come up with that themselves.

449
00:52:11,620 --> 00:52:15,500
Did you actually think
I bow to your demands?

450
00:52:17,220 --> 00:52:19,020
Then there is no money.

451
00:52:19,100 --> 00:52:22,260
It is your duty
to be obedient to the Duchess.

452
00:52:22,460 --> 00:52:25,460
Yes.
But the woman is subject to the man.

453
00:52:26,420 --> 00:52:27,740
That cancels it out.

454
00:52:27,780 --> 00:52:30,780
The consequences of your decision
you carry, Your Highness.

455
00:52:43,060 --> 00:52:44,340
Your Highness.

456
00:52:49,940 --> 00:52:52,360
I have 300 veterans, good fighters.

457
00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:56,780
With your little bunch you want
protect me from all of France?

458
00:52:56,820 --> 00:53:00,180
No. I'll send them
to your citizens, into their homes.

459
00:53:00,240 --> 00:53:04,100
Then they pay, and their big
I let them eat privilege.

460
00:53:04,340 --> 00:53:05,940
And how much does that cost me?

461
00:53:08,500 --> 00:53:10,140
Just a sweet smile.

462
00:53:11,540 --> 00:53:13,100
(quiet music)

463
00:53:13,900 --> 00:53:16,140
Out! Get out of here!

464
00:53:19,660 --> 00:53:23,860
Lord of Egmond! Never bet again
even step foot into my house.

465
00:53:24,540 --> 00:53:26,020
Your house?

466
00:53:26,540 --> 00:53:30,380
I fear this war
You lost it long ago, Duchess.

467
00:53:31,060 --> 00:53:32,700
(quiet music)

468
00:53:47,140 --> 00:53:49,020
Write to this Mr. Fugger.

469
00:53:49,740 --> 00:53:51,620
I will be happy to receive him.

470
00:54:07,180 --> 00:54:09,900
(De Commynes)
She still feels too safe.

471
00:54:09,940 --> 00:54:12,780
But she will you
grant the Great Privilege.

472
00:54:12,820 --> 00:54:14,300
(Coppenhole) And then?

473
00:54:14,340 --> 00:54:17,180
(De Commynes) Then she must do,
what you say.

474
00:54:17,220 --> 00:54:21,180
And you do what I say.
- Quite simple, right?

475
00:54:21,460 --> 00:54:22,980
Yes.

476
00:54:25,980 --> 00:54:28,700
This Mr. von Egmond, can he be bought?

477
00:54:29,260 --> 00:54:30,540
Secure.

478
00:54:35,900 --> 00:54:38,340
I would like to talk to him.
- About what?

479
00:54:38,700 --> 00:54:40,380
About leg screws.

480
00:54:40,420 --> 00:54:44,380
He should put the pressure on the Duchess
increase, so that it hurts.

481
00:54:44,420 --> 00:54:47,460
When they meet King Ludwig
does not bow voluntarily,

482
00:54:47,500 --> 00:54:49,980
then you just have to break her legs.

483
00:55:00,100 --> 00:55:02,180
She wants to receive this Fugger.

484
00:55:02,220 --> 00:55:06,340
And negotiate a marriage
with Maximilian of Austria.

485
00:55:07,220 --> 00:55:11,180
Le Daim will take care of it.
- No, let her have her way.

486
00:55:11,780 --> 00:55:16,140
That would give us an excuse, you guys
to put the leg screws on, right?

487
00:55:16,180 --> 00:55:20,180
Take this to the German and tell us
when he will arrive here.

488
00:55:21,580 --> 00:55:24,180
Your father liked
Maximilian of Habsburg.

489
00:55:24,220 --> 00:55:27,260
Everyone who knows him likes him.
I only hear good things.

490
00:55:27,300 --> 00:55:28,980
I only hear bad things.

491
00:55:29,020 --> 00:55:31,980
At the imperial court
still eat raw meat.

492
00:55:32,020 --> 00:55:35,620
They are dirt poor, uncultured,
and they stink!

493
00:55:35,660 --> 00:55:37,660
Who says something like that?
- Well, everyone!

494
00:55:38,220 --> 00:55:40,620
I'm not marrying a stinking barbarian!

495
00:55:40,660 --> 00:55:43,540
And if he ten times
is the son of the emperor.

496
00:55:43,940 --> 00:55:47,540
Besides, I don't love him.
- Now don't be childish.

497
00:55:49,180 --> 00:55:52,100
Then I should hold it
like you with my father?

498
00:55:52,180 --> 00:55:53,740
Would that be so bad?

499
00:55:53,780 --> 00:55:57,600
Your father was very considerate.
He hardly put any strain on me.

500
00:55:57,640 --> 00:56:00,300
And if my future husband
knows no measure

501
00:56:00,340 --> 00:56:02,480
and wants me every day, constantly?

502
00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:04,860
I am very sensitive.

503
00:56:06,220 --> 00:56:08,540
It happens, you become numb.

504
00:56:09,340 --> 00:56:11,180
Everywhere.
- But not me.

505
00:56:11,220 --> 00:56:14,580
Yes, all women do that -
or they perish.

506
00:56:14,620 --> 00:56:17,860
It is a weapon and a tool.
- What do you think?

507
00:56:17,900 --> 00:56:22,220
Your femininity. She can
lead the scepter wherever she wants.

508
00:56:22,260 --> 00:56:23,740
I prefer the head.

509
00:56:23,780 --> 00:56:26,980
Unfortunately that's not enough.
- What is this supposed to be?

510
00:56:27,020 --> 00:56:30,900
Will this be a guide for prostitutes?
- Suitors have money. Not him.

511
00:56:31,780 --> 00:56:33,740
Leave me alone, everyone!

512
00:56:34,660 --> 00:56:37,020
I command it as your Duchess.

513
00:56:38,340 --> 00:56:39,740
You go too.

514
00:56:40,140 --> 00:56:41,660
(quiet music)

515
00:57:26,820 --> 00:57:28,340
Rosina is here.

516
00:57:30,900 --> 00:57:32,540
(The door opens.)

517
00:57:39,580 --> 00:57:42,260
What are you doing here?
- I wanted to see you.

518
00:57:46,380 --> 00:57:48,220
How is my sister?

519
00:57:48,780 --> 00:57:50,260
She cries a lot.

520
00:57:50,300 --> 00:57:54,000
The King of Hungary should do this
be a very noble gentleman.

521
00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:55,300
Yes?

522
00:57:55,880 --> 00:57:58,040
How old is Matthias Corvinus? 40?

523
00:57:58,100 --> 00:58:02,000
He's courting a twelve-year-old girl.
My father is so afraid

524
00:58:02,040 --> 00:58:05,380
that he was ours
want to accuse the greatest enemy,

525
00:58:05,420 --> 00:58:08,100
just to appease him.
Do you understand that?

526
00:58:08,460 --> 00:58:10,860
You should be appeased too, right?

527
00:58:15,460 --> 00:58:17,940
Only you knew where I was hunting.

528
00:58:19,180 --> 00:58:20,780
That's why the wind blows.

529
00:58:21,300 --> 00:58:23,260
Yes.
- Yes, just me.

530
00:58:24,500 --> 00:58:29,300
And Polheim. And the body servant. And
those they told about it.

531
00:58:29,460 --> 00:58:31,380
Why should I betray you?

532
00:58:31,420 --> 00:58:33,580
Because you'll never get me.

533
00:58:33,940 --> 00:58:36,460
I will always be on top.
And you below.

534
00:58:37,100 --> 00:58:39,260
Because you can't get me.

535
00:58:39,300 --> 00:58:42,060
Because I'm too lowly
am for you.

536
00:58:42,100 --> 00:58:44,980
That's why you have to be secretive
meet with me.

537
00:58:45,020 --> 00:58:48,660
At night you come down to me,
full of longing for warmth.

538
00:58:48,940 --> 00:58:50,700
Because it's so lonely up there.

539
00:58:51,820 --> 00:58:54,060
I can have many in daylight.

540
00:58:54,120 --> 00:58:56,920
You very few,
Maximilian of Austria,

541
00:58:56,940 --> 00:58:59,460
because hardly any of them are good enough for you.

542
00:58:59,500 --> 00:59:02,100
So you better get used to it
to the darkness.

543
00:59:02,140 --> 00:59:03,820
(Knock)

544
00:59:07,140 --> 00:59:09,700
(quietly) I'm very glad you're alive.

545
00:59:09,780 --> 00:59:12,020
(energetic knocking)
Yes!

546
00:59:13,620 --> 00:59:15,860
The Emperor wishes to speak to you.

547
00:59:16,260 --> 00:59:17,740
Immediately.

548
00:59:22,580 --> 00:59:24,100
Rosina von Kraig.

549
00:59:24,180 --> 00:59:27,780
Aren't you the nanny?
the Kunigunde of Austria?

550
00:59:27,820 --> 00:59:30,300
But this is the emperor's other child.

551
00:59:30,340 --> 00:59:34,700
Her bower is at the end of the aisle,
in case you are lost.

552
00:59:45,900 --> 00:59:47,340
Sit down.

553
00:59:54,960 --> 00:59:58,320
I have no desire
beating around the bush.

554
00:59:58,660 --> 01:00:00,440
Not at this hour.

555
01:00:00,980 --> 01:00:04,780
It is my will that you
take Mary of Burgundy as your wife,

556
01:00:05,340 --> 01:00:07,100
before someone else does.

557
01:00:07,580 --> 01:00:08,900
I understand.

558
01:00:10,660 --> 01:00:12,420
The others wage war.

559
01:00:13,220 --> 01:00:15,980
We lucky Austrians
prefer to get married.

560
01:00:16,900 --> 01:00:18,300
You are a stranger to me.

561
01:00:18,980 --> 01:00:21,420
Although you are my son, my only one.

562
01:00:33,060 --> 01:00:35,900
France, Burgundy.

563
01:00:38,540 --> 01:00:39,820
Austria.

564
01:00:41,860 --> 01:00:43,780
The German electors.

565
01:00:44,460 --> 01:00:48,300
And the Ottomans, stopped
only from Matthias Corvinus,

566
01:00:48,340 --> 01:00:50,260
who wants to crack us at the same time.

567
01:00:50,900 --> 01:00:54,900
What do I do about it, the Emperor?
of the Holy Roman Empire?

568
01:00:55,560 --> 01:00:56,880
Nothing.

569
01:00:56,920 --> 01:01:00,000
We need an army
to consolidate power,

570
01:01:00,020 --> 01:01:02,260
that God has placed in our hands.

571
01:01:02,340 --> 01:01:04,860
An army,
that we cannot pay.

572
01:01:04,900 --> 01:01:06,380
But we are lucky:

573
01:01:06,460 --> 01:01:10,540
This apple has a daughter.
And this nut has a son.

574
01:01:10,900 --> 01:01:14,020
With Burgundy's wealth
we could finally rule,

575
01:01:14,060 --> 01:01:16,340
to silence the electors.

576
01:01:16,380 --> 01:01:20,100
the Hungarians defeat the Turks
stop. Dominium terrae.

577
01:01:20,180 --> 01:01:23,420
But you throw your life away,
before it started.

578
01:01:25,900 --> 01:01:29,900
Even if you don't understand that,
I hope you understand one thing.

579
01:01:30,380 --> 01:01:33,940
Your destiny is everything,
you are nothing.

580
01:01:35,660 --> 01:01:40,500
It's your fate,
to rule or perish.

581
01:01:44,020 --> 01:01:45,540
Just like you, father.

582
01:01:46,740 --> 01:01:48,460
I'm not going under.

583
01:01:49,300 --> 01:01:51,660
I have been holding out for many years.

584
01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:55,060
I wait for God to reach out to me

585
01:01:55,120 --> 01:01:57,440
and puts the apple in it himself.

586
01:02:00,020 --> 01:02:01,460
Take him.

587
01:02:06,220 --> 01:02:08,060
It is the imperial orb.

588
01:02:08,100 --> 01:02:12,500
The globe on which you build your empire
can build - for Habsburg.

589
01:02:20,220 --> 01:02:23,380
Better take small bites,
otherwise you will suffocate.

590
01:02:24,060 --> 01:02:25,820
It's just an apple.

591
01:02:28,460 --> 01:02:30,460
As for your mother:

592
01:02:30,500 --> 01:02:34,060
Wasn't it love,
it was good and right.

593
01:02:35,020 --> 01:02:37,100
Accept it, your fate.

594
01:02:37,140 --> 01:02:39,740
If you defend yourself,
it will only get worse.

595
01:02:43,780 --> 01:02:47,980
We meet Matthias Corvinus, he
wants to look at your sister.

596
01:02:48,380 --> 01:02:50,220
(quiet, dark music)

597
01:03:09,540 --> 01:03:11,940
You've been avoiding me for days.

598
01:03:13,980 --> 01:03:16,700
If you think like the others,
then say it.

599
01:03:24,860 --> 01:03:26,460
Which others?

600
01:03:27,020 --> 01:03:28,860
They think it was me.

601
01:03:30,540 --> 01:03:32,460
That doesn't make any sense.

602
01:03:33,140 --> 01:03:35,260
I am worth more to you alive.

603
01:03:35,980 --> 01:03:39,340
Whoever serves the future emperor
sits at the source.

604
01:03:40,060 --> 01:03:42,260
You have a high opinion of me.

605
01:03:45,980 --> 01:03:48,820
I already have
seen sources in a better mood.

606
01:03:50,780 --> 01:03:53,420
The emperor demands
that I marry her.

607
01:04:02,700 --> 01:04:04,620
Can't think of anything else?

608
01:04:06,260 --> 01:04:09,140
The Danube is a mighty river,
right?

609
01:04:09,980 --> 01:04:12,140
She also started as a source.

610
01:04:13,100 --> 01:04:16,140
But first their tributaries
made them so big.

611
01:04:16,380 --> 01:04:17,820
Yes, and so cloudy.

612
01:04:17,860 --> 01:04:20,380
That's just because everyone shits in there.

613
01:04:23,460 --> 01:04:26,940
You can change your future
really tasty.

614
01:04:34,820 --> 01:04:36,900
I don't know what to do.

615
01:04:40,660 --> 01:04:43,780
But I.
There's more wine in the cellar.

616
01:04:43,900 --> 01:04:46,180
Come on, then at least you'll know tomorrow

617
01:04:46,220 --> 01:04:47,900
why you feel bad.

618
01:05:01,320 --> 01:05:03,660
(quiet music, seagulls screeching)

619
01:05:05,420 --> 01:05:07,580
(distant bell ringing)

620
01:05:12,060 --> 01:05:14,060
(hoof rapping)

621
01:05:37,580 --> 01:05:39,140
Lord of Egmond.

622
01:05:40,500 --> 01:05:44,860
You take the coin, keep yours
Head and enter my service.

623
01:05:45,060 --> 01:05:48,820
Or I keep the coin
and use it to pay for your funeral.

624
01:05:50,860 --> 01:05:53,020
Choose, but hurry.

625
01:05:54,300 --> 01:05:56,160
(quiet, tense music)

626
01:06:08,380 --> 01:06:10,620
No cloth has come from Ghent for weeks.

627
01:06:10,660 --> 01:06:13,620
Your cities pay the tolls
and revenue

628
01:06:13,660 --> 01:06:16,500
not from stacking law.
- Who says that?

629
01:06:16,540 --> 01:06:18,980
The sparrows whistle from the rooftops.

630
01:06:19,020 --> 01:06:20,540
Does that concern you?
- What?

631
01:06:20,580 --> 01:06:22,700
That you are running out of goods.
- No.

632
01:06:22,740 --> 01:06:24,900
I have supplies, I am a merchant.

633
01:06:24,980 --> 01:06:28,220
I always take precautions.
Hopefully you too.

634
01:06:28,460 --> 01:06:31,420
The emperor wants money from you.
- And what exactly for?

635
01:06:31,460 --> 01:06:34,860
For the dubious pleasure,
to marry his son?

636
01:06:34,900 --> 01:06:38,980
For giving your country a duke
who keeps order here,

637
01:06:39,020 --> 01:06:43,140
who strikes back France,
that gets trade going again.

638
01:06:43,220 --> 01:06:44,500
How much?

639
01:07:08,900 --> 01:07:11,180
Do you think I have that much?

640
01:07:13,060 --> 01:07:16,740
Maximilian actually knows
from this bold demand?

641
01:07:16,820 --> 01:07:18,140
No.

642
01:07:19,260 --> 01:07:21,300
His Majesty sent me.

643
01:07:22,420 --> 01:07:26,140
Do I understand this correctly,
Your commodity is the emperor's son?

644
01:07:26,180 --> 01:07:29,460
And you want it for me
sell for a good price?

645
01:07:29,500 --> 01:07:31,540
Like a piece of cattle at the market, yes?

646
01:07:32,740 --> 01:07:35,660
Better he is the goods,
than you are, right?

647
01:07:36,460 --> 01:07:38,140
(approaching steps)

648
01:07:51,380 --> 01:07:52,740
Mary of Burgundy,

649
01:07:52,780 --> 01:07:56,520
You negotiate behind their backs
Your citizens with the emperor.

650
01:07:58,740 --> 01:08:00,460
How dare you?

651
01:08:00,580 --> 01:08:02,100
(outcry)

652
01:08:04,060 --> 01:08:05,460
What are you doing there?

653
01:08:05,500 --> 01:08:08,980
The States General are
against Maximilian of Austria.

654
01:08:09,020 --> 01:08:12,500
I am your Duchess.
I can do whatever I please.

655
01:08:12,540 --> 01:08:14,860
I urge you once again,

656
01:08:14,900 --> 01:08:17,100
to grant us the great privilege.

657
01:08:17,140 --> 01:08:20,380
Then we will be together
determine the new duke,

658
01:08:20,420 --> 01:08:22,460
which we will gladly submit to.

659
01:08:22,620 --> 01:08:24,380
Who pays you for it?

660
01:08:25,540 --> 01:08:27,380
And you, Lord von Egmond?

661
01:08:27,420 --> 01:08:29,260
People don't talk about money.

662
01:08:32,980 --> 01:08:37,020
Nobody enters or leaves
the yard until you sign.

663
01:08:37,060 --> 01:08:39,220
I want to lock up your Duchess?

664
01:08:41,340 --> 01:08:44,540
Only for your protection, Your Highnesses.

665
01:09:01,560 --> 01:09:04,220
You can still choose
who you want to be.

666
01:09:04,340 --> 01:09:07,940
A princess without power -
or the future empress.

667
01:09:07,980 --> 01:09:12,020
Soon you won't have a choice anymore.
- And if I choose France?

668
01:09:12,060 --> 01:09:14,780
Your father
and King Ludwig were mortal enemies.

669
01:09:14,820 --> 01:09:16,460
He would occupy Burgundy,

670
01:09:16,500 --> 01:09:19,900
you as a toy
left to rot by a stupid child.

671
01:09:19,940 --> 01:09:22,380
And Austria?
Where is the difference?

672
01:09:22,420 --> 01:09:24,260
Maximilian needs you.

673
01:09:24,340 --> 01:09:26,300
Without our money he is nothing.

674
01:09:26,340 --> 01:09:30,340
And you also need him urgently,
for he will be your sword.

675
01:09:30,380 --> 01:09:31,980
That's the difference.

676
01:09:32,380 --> 01:09:33,900
(quiet music)

677
01:10:11,540 --> 01:10:13,380
A messenger of love.

678
01:10:15,260 --> 01:10:17,220
But France doesn't want that.

679
01:10:18,860 --> 01:10:21,300
Who are you?
- Philippe de Commynes.

680
01:10:21,660 --> 01:10:23,380
At your service.

681
01:10:24,300 --> 01:10:26,060
King Ludwig likes you.

682
01:10:26,140 --> 01:10:28,300
He offers you rich trade.

683
01:10:28,340 --> 01:10:31,180
And here in Burgundy,
so France.

684
01:10:31,980 --> 01:10:34,780
Your business is with us
in the best hands.

685
01:10:36,060 --> 01:10:38,980
Return to Augsburg,
into your warm room.

686
01:10:39,740 --> 01:10:42,140
This isn't worth it for you.

687
01:10:43,740 --> 01:10:45,460
(quiet music)

688
01:11:47,340 --> 01:11:49,500
Our guards are all gone.

689
01:11:50,100 --> 01:11:51,400
I know.

690
01:11:51,780 --> 01:11:53,660
These guys are squatting everywhere.

691
01:11:55,240 --> 01:11:57,100
No, not everywhere.

692
01:11:57,860 --> 01:12:00,300
There are still ways to escape.

693
01:12:01,900 --> 01:12:03,600
You know the men.

694
01:12:03,940 --> 01:12:05,320
Yes.

695
01:12:05,380 --> 01:12:08,700
You will examine one for me,
very carefully.

696
01:12:09,220 --> 01:12:12,060
You will ride to Austria,
to Maximilian.

697
01:12:12,140 --> 01:12:15,180
And you will do exactly that,
what I order you to do.

698
01:12:17,780 --> 01:12:19,780
(solemn chorale singing)

699
01:12:59,400 --> 01:13:03,220
(Anne) father ordered
that the entire forest will be felled,

700
01:13:03,280 --> 01:13:07,140
because he got the message there
from the death of our brother.

701
01:13:10,500 --> 01:13:12,820
Mother was in her bower.

702
01:13:14,540 --> 01:13:17,460
She has all the facilities
let burn

703
01:13:17,500 --> 01:13:19,780
and will seal the door forever.

704
01:13:21,740 --> 01:13:24,580
Nothing should ever happen to her
remember this misfortune.

705
01:13:25,020 --> 01:13:26,780
(solemn chorale singing)

706
01:13:49,780 --> 01:13:51,580
(drum beats)

707
01:14:21,740 --> 01:14:23,540
(driving drum music)

708
01:15:06,300 --> 01:15:08,060
(loud breathing)

709
01:15:22,780 --> 01:15:25,140
(battle cries)

710
01:15:30,660 --> 01:15:32,220
(rumbling thunder)

711
01:15:34,060 --> 01:15:35,660
(loud breathing)

712
01:15:38,740 --> 01:15:40,620
(fighting sounds)

713
01:15:49,740 --> 01:15:51,700
(painful groan)

714
01:15:54,700 --> 01:15:56,660
(quiet, dramatic music)

715
01:16:05,900 --> 01:16:07,700
(fighting sounds)

716
01:16:19,220 --> 01:16:20,900
(groan)

717
01:16:25,900 --> 01:16:27,620
(scream)

718
01:16:31,140 --> 01:16:33,060
(quiet, dramatic music)

719
01:16:33,740 --> 01:16:35,460
(fighting sounds)

720
01:16:42,820 --> 01:16:44,420
(scream)

721
01:16:45,260 --> 01:16:47,260
(quiet, dramatic music)

722
01:17:22,060 --> 01:17:24,780
(with accent)
He is very angry, your son.

723
01:17:26,460 --> 01:17:29,820
He fights well in the tournament.

724
01:17:31,540 --> 01:17:34,820
Matthias Corvinus will
not marry my sister.

725
01:17:35,460 --> 01:17:37,780
I will chase him out of my country.

726
01:17:37,980 --> 01:17:40,020
For a war you need money.

727
01:17:43,540 --> 01:17:45,580
This Fugger should give it to me.

728
01:17:45,860 --> 01:17:48,380
Merchants only give where there is already something.

729
01:17:49,540 --> 01:17:51,940
But there's nothing with you, just hot air.

730
01:17:53,400 --> 01:17:55,740
You threaten everyone and announce things.

731
01:17:56,040 --> 01:17:57,620
But you don't do anything.

732
01:18:02,700 --> 01:18:04,700
Watch your tongue, Polheim.

733
01:18:17,940 --> 01:18:19,660
(Corvinus) Do you like whores?

734
01:18:20,420 --> 01:18:21,700
No.

735
01:18:22,180 --> 01:18:26,260
Then why do you treat yours
Daughter like she's for sale?

736
01:18:27,820 --> 01:18:29,500
What do you want for her?

737
01:18:33,660 --> 01:18:35,420
The evacuation of Styria

738
01:18:35,460 --> 01:18:39,780
and the guarantee that your black
Army doesn't pressurize us any further.

739
01:18:40,180 --> 01:18:41,580
Not more?

740
01:18:44,780 --> 01:18:46,700
Is it that cheap?

741
01:18:49,100 --> 01:18:53,040
I want peace, your support
against my enemies.

742
01:18:53,680 --> 01:18:56,220
And you can remain King of Bohemia.

743
01:18:57,380 --> 01:19:01,320
My Hungary stretches
from Lusatia to Wallachia,

744
01:19:01,340 --> 01:19:06,020
where my governors
put the Ottomans on stakes.

745
01:19:07,460 --> 01:19:12,100
It takes until the pile of
penetrates through the whole body at the back.

746
01:19:13,020 --> 01:19:16,580
But he does it, unstoppably.

747
01:19:18,740 --> 01:19:21,340
I am the stake in the flesh of Austria.

748
01:19:21,860 --> 01:19:24,340
If you grease it, it will be easier.

749
01:19:24,820 --> 01:19:26,660
(dark music)

750
01:20:28,660 --> 01:20:30,500
(quiet music)

751
01:20:41,860 --> 01:20:45,260
I want to see Archduke Maximilian.
- Why?

752
01:20:45,540 --> 01:20:48,260
I bring news
of Mary of Burgundy.

753
01:21:05,020 --> 01:21:07,780
My mistress sends me
Mary of Burgundy.

754
01:21:07,820 --> 01:21:12,020
I'm supposed to tell you that they are
regrets not being able to be here.

755
01:21:12,060 --> 01:21:15,100
She would like you
viewed with your own eyes.

756
01:21:15,140 --> 01:21:19,460
Now my eyes are those of Mary
of Burgundy. May I approach?

757
01:21:19,500 --> 01:21:20,820
Yes.

758
01:21:26,620 --> 01:21:28,100
(She sniffs.)

759
01:21:33,420 --> 01:21:34,860
Are you bathing?

760
01:21:36,500 --> 01:21:38,180
Yes.
- How often?

761
01:21:39,340 --> 01:21:42,140
As often as I stink.
- Do you eat raw meat?

762
01:21:42,940 --> 01:21:46,620
Sometimes the liver of one
freshly killed deer on the hunt.

763
01:21:47,140 --> 01:21:50,980
Can you read? Write? Calculate?
- Yes.

764
01:21:55,400 --> 01:21:56,740
Then read.

765
01:21:57,500 --> 01:22:00,020
(Rudolfer)
Should I kick her out?

766
01:22:06,860 --> 01:22:10,540
"Maximilian, most serene
Archduke of Austria."

767
01:22:11,260 --> 01:22:14,340
"I, Mary,
Duchess of Burgundy and Luxembourg,

768
01:22:14,380 --> 01:22:17,220
write to you,
because my need compels me."

769
01:22:17,400 --> 01:22:19,000
(quiet music)

770
01:22:19,660 --> 01:22:23,280
"I am filled with great pain.
My father is dead."

771
01:22:24,180 --> 01:22:27,700
"I have now
no one left in the world

772
01:22:27,780 --> 01:22:31,420
except my dear stepmother
and my lady-in-waiting, Johanna,

773
01:22:31,480 --> 01:22:33,200
that can smell you good."

774
01:22:33,240 --> 01:22:36,280
"Otherwise she would have you
not given this letter."

775
01:22:36,320 --> 01:22:38,460
"My own people oppress me."

776
01:22:38,500 --> 01:22:41,440
"The estates threaten me,
They're locking me up."

777
01:22:41,760 --> 01:22:45,020
"We only decide what
what is happening at the moment,

778
01:22:45,080 --> 01:22:48,160
whether I bridle my horse,
or give him spurs,

779
01:22:48,220 --> 01:22:50,020
We can't do more."

780
01:22:50,240 --> 01:22:52,880
"Even if we
would like to believe that."

781
01:22:52,940 --> 01:22:55,560
"But God laughs at that,
what we're planning."

782
01:22:55,620 --> 01:23:00,140
"We ruin our lives because we
keep putting off life."

783
01:23:00,200 --> 01:23:02,200
"Maria."
- She quotes Epicurus.

784
01:23:02,900 --> 01:23:04,540
Do you know Epicurus?

785
01:23:05,480 --> 01:23:06,820
I love him.

786
01:23:07,820 --> 01:23:09,100
You too.

787
01:23:11,120 --> 01:23:13,140
For you, from her.

788
01:23:13,760 --> 01:23:16,000
(quiet, soulful music)

789
01:23:17,920 --> 01:23:19,780
Is that her?
- Yes.

790
01:23:20,620 --> 01:23:22,040
Don't lie to me.

791
01:23:23,260 --> 01:23:25,020
That's exactly what she looks like?

792
01:23:25,760 --> 01:23:27,240
How she lives and feels.

793
01:23:27,300 --> 01:23:30,080
Then there is Mary of Burgundy
really that beautiful?

794
01:23:30,620 --> 01:23:31,900
Beautiful.

795
01:23:31,920 --> 01:23:35,240
Maybe I should ride there
and sniff her.

796
01:23:42,780 --> 01:23:44,740
The Emperor wants you.

797
01:24:03,260 --> 01:24:06,540
Wolf von Polheim.
I am the Archduke's chamberlain.

798
01:24:06,940 --> 01:24:08,940
Wolf?
- Wolfgang.

799
01:24:09,740 --> 01:24:11,540
Everyone says wolf to me.

800
01:24:14,460 --> 01:24:18,140
My mistress awaits answer,
tell that to your Archduke.

801
01:24:30,380 --> 01:24:33,380
The French have
drove Ulrich Fugger away.

802
01:24:33,420 --> 01:24:35,420
I sent him to Ghent,

803
01:24:35,460 --> 01:24:38,540
to conclude the contract
and bring money.

804
01:24:41,060 --> 01:24:42,540
What?

805
01:24:43,600 --> 01:24:47,140
You tried
to sell me? To the Burgundians?

806
01:24:48,020 --> 01:24:51,660
If Matthias Corvinus is yours
does not take his sister as his wife,

807
01:24:51,700 --> 01:24:53,260
we will perish.

808
01:24:54,320 --> 01:24:56,220
I've watched long enough.

809
01:24:57,040 --> 01:24:58,860
This has to come to an end.

810
01:25:00,060 --> 01:25:03,500
What are you talking about?
- (screams) About your cowardice!

811
01:25:04,180 --> 01:25:06,040
And your helplessness.

812
01:25:06,100 --> 01:25:08,660
That's why the electors
chosen you,

813
01:25:08,700 --> 01:25:11,460
because your them
cannot be dangerous.

814
01:25:11,500 --> 01:25:13,980
Nobody respects you, father.

815
01:25:15,300 --> 01:25:18,820
Yes, you are the emperor,
but you act like a shopkeeper.

816
01:25:18,860 --> 01:25:21,340
If you touch me, I'll kill you.

817
01:25:22,460 --> 01:25:24,900
I'll fight my way out of the dirt,

818
01:25:24,940 --> 01:25:27,380
alone and on your own strength.

819
01:25:30,300 --> 01:25:32,700
There are warriors who will never be defeated,

820
01:25:32,740 --> 01:25:34,860
because they smash everything to pieces.

821
01:25:34,900 --> 01:25:38,180
And then there are some
that can withstand every blow,

822
01:25:38,300 --> 01:25:40,900
until their opponents die of fatigue.

823
01:25:42,780 --> 01:25:47,500
God didn't give me a sword,
but a very strong armor.

824
01:25:51,500 --> 01:25:53,260
(dark music)

825
01:25:54,400 --> 01:25:56,640
They will all break because of me.

826
01:25:57,640 --> 01:25:59,860
(quiet, tense music)

827
01:26:14,740 --> 01:26:18,980
The Duchess's chambermaid would like
that you answer her mistress.

828
01:26:21,780 --> 01:26:24,500
You were right about that
what you said.

829
01:26:26,060 --> 01:26:28,140
I just talk and do nothing.

830
01:26:32,380 --> 01:26:34,940
I become the world
to put my seal on it.

831
01:26:35,020 --> 01:26:37,580
Who in his life
makes no memory,

832
01:26:37,620 --> 01:26:40,020
he has no memory after his death.

833
01:26:40,060 --> 01:26:44,020
And the same person will
be forgotten with the sound of the bell.

834
01:26:44,700 --> 01:26:46,380
(quiet music)

835
01:26:51,380 --> 01:26:53,340
Bring me ink and quill pen.

836
01:27:02,900 --> 01:27:06,860
"Maria, most serene princess
of Burgundy and Luxembourg."

837
01:27:07,300 --> 01:27:11,140
"You write about our plans,
that God laughs at them."

838
01:27:11,220 --> 01:27:14,940
"But maybe our plans are
everything we own."

839
01:27:14,980 --> 01:27:17,460
"Like pictures,
that we have from each other."

840
01:27:17,500 --> 01:27:19,220
"These are also rarely true,

841
01:27:19,300 --> 01:27:22,980
and yet we always try
to do justice to them."

842
01:27:26,300 --> 01:27:30,580
"No one sees evil and chooses it,
but rather one allows oneself to be deceived."

843
01:27:30,620 --> 01:27:33,340
"Because you compare it
with another,

844
01:27:33,380 --> 01:27:35,740
considers even greater evil to be a good."

845
01:27:35,780 --> 01:27:38,980
"I'm leaving in a few days,
to you. Maximilian."

846
01:27:39,500 --> 01:27:41,020
Why an evil?

847
01:27:41,180 --> 01:27:44,880
Of course. Every marriage out
political reasons is an evil,

848
01:27:44,900 --> 01:27:47,740
to another,
to prevent worse evil.

849
01:27:47,780 --> 01:27:49,820
He sees things as they are.

850
01:27:50,740 --> 01:27:52,060
He is like you.

851
01:27:53,180 --> 01:27:54,940
And he's pretty too.

852
01:27:55,840 --> 01:27:58,580
Yes.
You've said that ten times already.

853
01:27:59,700 --> 01:28:01,620
(calm, soulful music)

854
01:28:03,960 --> 01:28:05,660
I would like to be alone.

855
01:28:18,940 --> 01:28:20,540
(dark music)

856
01:28:51,520 --> 01:28:53,960
My deepest condolences, Your Majesty.

857
01:28:54,900 --> 01:28:56,180
What do you want?

858
01:28:56,300 --> 01:28:59,720
Mary of Burgundy has
signed the Great Privilege.

859
01:29:01,000 --> 01:29:03,180
Will she stick to it?
- No.

860
01:29:03,760 --> 01:29:06,620
Maximilian will travel to Ghent.
- Very good.

861
01:29:06,820 --> 01:29:08,080
How come?

862
01:29:08,100 --> 01:29:10,740
Because she with it
violates the contract.

863
01:29:10,780 --> 01:29:13,060
Do you understand what this means for us?

864
01:29:13,900 --> 01:29:15,160
No.

865
01:29:15,180 --> 01:29:19,180
She breaks the contract, and
We punish them for it, right?

866
01:29:19,500 --> 01:29:21,060
Yes.

867
01:29:22,020 --> 01:29:24,540
And Maximilian?
What are you doing with that?

868
01:29:27,580 --> 01:29:29,580
(menacing music)

9999
00:00:0,500 --> 00:00:2,00
