4
00:02:05,039 --> 00:02:09,459
And so it was, in those days
of the First Great War,

5
00:02:10,719 --> 00:02:13,339
which would ravage the land
for decades to come,

6
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:19,899
that Rose resolved
to turn her back on soldiering.

7
00:02:20,839 --> 00:02:24,040
Her story did not begin there,

8
00:02:25,259 --> 00:02:27,719
but it nevertheless took a grave turn.

11
00:03:26,290 --> 00:03:27,870
Everything is in order.

12
00:03:28,970 --> 00:03:29,970
Nothing is missing.

13
00:03:30,450 --> 00:03:31,490
Not as far as I can see.

14
00:03:33,530 --> 00:03:35,310
You possess this document.

15
00:03:35,429 --> 00:03:37,390
That means
you may claim the inheritance.

16
00:03:39,940 --> 00:03:41,060
Do you know the land, sir?

17
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,660
Yes. As a boy, I spent two summers
there with my mother.

18
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:48,900
After my father died,

19
00:03:48,900 --> 00:03:50,440
we were graciously received at the estate.

20
00:03:54,339 --> 00:03:56,580
That was when the little chapel
caught fire,

21
00:03:57,020 --> 00:03:58,119
when lightning struck it.

22
00:04:09,689 --> 00:04:11,449
The farm has stood empty for a long time.

23
00:04:13,050 --> 00:04:14,829
Why did you wait until now
to come forward?

24
00:04:16,050 --> 00:04:18,589
The news took an age to reach me.
I was a soldier.

25
00:04:18,929 --> 00:04:19,929
Where?

26
00:04:21,029 --> 00:04:22,029
With the army.

27
00:04:23,670 --> 00:04:24,670
For ten years.

28
00:04:25,689 --> 00:04:26,689
And your mother?

29
00:04:28,629 --> 00:04:29,629
Dead too.

30
00:04:31,230 --> 00:04:32,230
All of them now.

31
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,340
As that same day was no longer
deemed suitable for an inspection,

32
00:04:53,340 --> 00:04:54,879
any longer,

33
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,580
it was agreed that they would set out
together the following morning

34
00:05:00,580 --> 00:05:03,600
to inspect the estate.

35
00:05:34,389 --> 00:05:40,009
The livestock was shared among the village,
or it would have perished.

36
00:05:56,439 --> 00:05:59,860
It is good land,
but demands everything of you

37
00:05:59,860 --> 00:06:01,719
for only the smallest yield.

38
00:06:02,879 --> 00:06:06,240
A man must know what he is doing,
or he had best leave it alone.

39
00:06:08,199 --> 00:06:10,519
As a soldier, you fought for the land.

40
00:06:12,259 --> 00:06:14,839
That does not mean you can withstand
the struggle against it.

41
00:06:17,869 --> 00:06:19,749
As you can see, much must be done

42
00:06:20,229 --> 00:06:22,029
before the real work can even begin.

43
00:06:23,309 --> 00:06:24,309
It is not for everyone.

44
00:06:25,769 --> 00:06:26,849
There is no shame in that.

45
00:06:28,389 --> 00:06:29,969
I would gladly buy the land from you.

46
00:06:30,689 --> 00:06:31,689
For a good price.

47
00:06:33,169 --> 00:06:34,269
And I intend to stay.

48
00:06:36,429 --> 00:06:37,929
To settle down at last.

49
00:06:39,709 --> 00:06:42,449
And seek my fortune
in this splendid parish.

50
00:06:45,290 --> 00:06:47,610
In the coming days, we can put
the formalities in order

51
00:06:47,610 --> 00:06:49,150
and sign the documents.

53
00:07:06,689 --> 00:07:09,829
The first arrival was complete.

54
00:07:14,689 --> 00:07:17,889
And though Rose found no one

55
00:07:17,889 --> 00:07:19,230
who wished to drink to it with her,

56
00:07:22,090 --> 00:07:25,850
they were happy enough to take her money.

58
00:09:59,789 --> 00:10:00,869
That's strange.

59
00:10:02,949 --> 00:10:03,949
It's become so narrow.

60
00:10:06,590 --> 00:10:07,930
It's all dented.

61
00:10:09,710 --> 00:10:12,190
It isn't only my face.
Everything has a new shape now.

62
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,619
In the village they call you "the soldier."

63
00:10:44,420 --> 00:10:46,639
And they say you are an eccentric.

64
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:47,920
Be quiet!

65
00:10:51,039 --> 00:10:53,639
And that you carry
something mysterious with you.

66
00:10:53,839 --> 00:10:54,860
I told you to be quiet!

70
00:11:46,610 --> 00:11:49,249
What kind of life is built on deceit?

71
00:11:50,990 --> 00:11:52,410
There is no heroism in it,

72
00:11:53,290 --> 00:11:55,970
only coercion and hardship,
forever on one's guard.

73
00:11:57,710 --> 00:11:59,970
Can such a life be called freedom?

74
00:12:33,350 --> 00:12:36,070
Some say time will bring a solution.

75
00:12:37,169 --> 00:12:40,629
Others say the Lord provides
for His own in their sleep.

76
00:12:43,149 --> 00:12:47,069
Whatever one may say,
never had sleep

77
00:12:47,069 --> 00:12:50,569
done Rose as much good
as it did that night.

78
00:12:52,230 --> 00:12:55,909
And counsel came the very next day.

79
00:12:59,300 --> 00:13:00,300
What is it?

80
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:04,900
The storm swept away our fences,
and the livestock escaped.

81
00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:10,380
Perhaps we could drive the sheep
in here with you.

82
00:14:16,889 --> 00:14:18,249
Hup! Hup! Hup!

83
00:15:02,289 --> 00:15:05,789
The she-bear was found dead
in the forest the next day.

84
00:15:07,709 --> 00:15:09,089
The meat had spoiled.

85
00:15:11,069 --> 00:15:12,249
But from the hide,

86
00:15:13,269 --> 00:15:15,949
in Rose's honour, they fashioned a cloak,

87
00:15:16,809 --> 00:15:18,909
a cap and a collar.

88
00:15:24,389 --> 00:15:29,069
The soldier, the eccentric,
the mysterious heir,

89
00:15:29,490 --> 00:15:33,529
had become a bear-slayer,

90
00:15:33,529 --> 00:15:36,789
no longer obliged to contend
with the old order,

91
00:15:36,789 --> 00:15:39,049
but one who had written her own story

92
00:15:39,490 --> 00:15:40,490
into that of the village.

93
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,200
What else, then, might yet happen?

94
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:51,380
And though God shows Himself
but seldom, or too indistinctly,

95
00:15:51,380 --> 00:15:52,760
in the affairs of daily life,

96
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:57,240
time visibly passed over the land.

97
00:16:05,639 --> 00:16:08,580
A year had passed since her arrival,

98
00:16:10,019 --> 00:16:13,100
and Rose had been seized
by a mighty spirit of enterprise.

99
00:16:13,100 --> 00:16:14,100
had come over her.

100
00:16:15,319 --> 00:16:18,720
She thought of expansion,
of making the farm larger,

101
00:16:19,799 --> 00:16:22,539
of surplus and profit too.

102
00:16:47,379 --> 00:16:49,139
It is good to see the land prosper again.

103
00:16:51,639 --> 00:16:53,240
I did not think you capable of it.

104
00:16:57,149 --> 00:16:58,329
Nor did I.

105
00:16:59,889 --> 00:17:02,709
Every day, I stand in wonder
that I am here.

106
00:17:07,190 --> 00:17:11,610
Before, I could never imagine
a tomorrow.

107
00:17:13,850 --> 00:17:15,110
What might come, what might be.

108
00:17:17,670 --> 00:17:20,329
I was too busy trying
to survive each day.

109
00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:24,279
And now?

110
00:17:27,390 --> 00:17:30,190
For the first time, it seems
so magnificent and beautiful.

111
00:17:34,109 --> 00:17:35,430
It brings me such joy.

112
00:17:37,839 --> 00:17:40,359
To work, to imagine
what else one might do.

113
00:17:44,990 --> 00:17:48,430
To think of all one might yet create,
or build.

114
00:17:52,089 --> 00:17:53,749
And for that, one needs this land.

115
00:17:56,039 --> 00:17:57,299
It is a beginning.

116
00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:00,799
Land has a different value from coin.

117
00:18:01,859 --> 00:18:03,499
Coin is exchanged once for something.

118
00:18:04,319 --> 00:18:05,779
The land gives to you every year.

119
00:18:06,759 --> 00:18:07,779
Like a woman's womb.

120
00:18:10,990 --> 00:18:11,990
No.

121
00:18:13,749 --> 00:18:15,190
I do not wish to sell the brook.

122
00:18:20,539 --> 00:18:22,339
But I shall make you an offer:

123
00:18:24,999 --> 00:18:27,759
a way for you to gain
your patch of earth,

124
00:18:27,759 --> 00:18:29,619
while everything remains as it is for me.

125
00:18:32,140 --> 00:18:36,280
I have five daughters,
and they eat me out of house and home.

126
00:18:38,779 --> 00:18:41,180
Rose had accomplished much thus far.

127
00:18:43,120 --> 00:18:45,780
To do so, she had been forced
to practise discipline,

128
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:50,200
and strict self-denial, every day.

129
00:18:51,700 --> 00:18:54,960
She had gone without in order to demand,

130
00:18:56,599 --> 00:18:58,840
and renounced in order to receive.

131
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:02,880
Concealing herself in order to exist.

132
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:09,520
But once necessity
has been satisfied,

133
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:11,980
the desire for more soon follows.

134
00:19:13,540 --> 00:19:15,520
For greed is an intoxication.

135
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,160
It makes one believe
that one is entitled to everything,

136
00:19:20,420 --> 00:19:24,060
and thus justifies itself
by its own existence.

137
00:19:25,700 --> 00:19:27,060
It knows no bounds.

138
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:31,280
Greed is without measure,

139
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,940
without purpose or discipline.

140
00:19:37,020 --> 00:19:39,860
A barrel cannot be emptier than empty.

141
00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:43,840
But it is easily made to overflow.

142
00:19:47,740 --> 00:19:53,099
This is Susanna,
virtuous and God-fearing,

143
00:19:54,019 --> 00:19:55,460
skilled in every womanly task.

144
00:19:56,559 --> 00:20:01,059
She tended her mother,
who endured much suffering before death.

145
00:20:11,819 --> 00:20:12,819
I do not know what ails it.

146
00:20:25,890 --> 00:20:27,770
My late wife began it.

147
00:20:29,450 --> 00:20:31,910
She even worked in childbed.
We have one from each of them.

148
00:20:33,670 --> 00:20:34,670
But she was weak.

149
00:20:34,730 --> 00:20:35,730
Leave it!

150
00:20:36,270 --> 00:20:37,270
Very weak.

151
00:20:38,290 --> 00:20:39,290
Often confined to bed.

152
00:20:44,490 --> 00:20:45,490
Well?

153
00:21:01,089 --> 00:21:03,109
The gentleman wishes to court you.

154
00:21:04,209 --> 00:21:05,529
I am willing to give you to him.

155
00:21:06,609 --> 00:21:07,609
Are you willing too?

158
00:21:59,589 --> 00:22:00,589
Yes.

160
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:23,080
May the Lord bless you and keep you.

161
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:40,640
Away!

162
00:23:57,390 --> 00:23:59,910
Tomorrow we shall all
become better acquainted.

163
00:24:22,970 --> 00:24:24,150
Will you not see to the fire?

164
00:24:30,690 --> 00:24:31,690
Shall I?

165
00:24:32,690 --> 00:24:35,470
I can try,
so that the clothes may dry.

166
00:24:37,140 --> 00:24:40,900
Or you, sir. Perhaps you are
more adept at it anyway.

167
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:52,460
The basket of preserves
and cold meat

168
00:24:52,499 --> 00:24:54,900
left from the wedding—
we left that by the cart as well.

169
00:24:57,740 --> 00:24:59,059
I do not know.

170
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,759
Let us thank the dear Lord that

171
00:25:05,759 --> 00:25:07,920
the past days were plentiful
and we did not go

172
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:08,920
to bed hungry.

173
00:25:10,940 --> 00:25:13,980
that You have graciously kept me this day,

174
00:25:13,980 --> 00:25:15,080
and I beseech You

175
00:25:15,499 --> 00:25:17,620
to forgive me
all my sins,

176
00:25:18,299 --> 00:25:21,100
for I commend myself,
my body and soul,

177
00:25:21,100 --> 00:25:23,320
and all things into Your hands.

178
00:25:24,220 --> 00:25:25,980
May Your holy angel be with me,

179
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:30,059
that the evil foe may have
no power over me.

180
00:25:31,259 --> 00:25:32,259
Amen.

181
00:26:25,990 --> 00:26:30,470
Of all things, what I prize most
is your purity.

182
00:26:33,140 --> 00:26:34,759
I intend to preserve it for a long time.

183
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:50,840
Nothing has been damaged,
as far as I can see.

184
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:52,440
It would be enough
to make ourselves a home.

185
00:28:54,839 --> 00:28:55,999
A fine one.

186
00:28:57,779 --> 00:28:58,779
Yes.

187
00:29:17,449 --> 00:29:20,289
Will you not sing us a little song
to mark the occasion?

188
00:29:32,850 --> 00:29:33,850
Come now!

189
00:29:33,850 --> 00:29:34,850
I do not know what to sing.

190
00:29:35,390 --> 00:29:36,390
Anything at all.

191
00:29:36,390 --> 00:29:37,390
That one.

192
00:29:41,709 --> 00:29:44,549
Commit all your ways

193
00:29:45,649 --> 00:29:49,369
and all that grieves your heart

194
00:29:50,249 --> 00:29:53,950
to the most faithful care

195
00:29:54,569 --> 00:29:56,389
of Him who rules

196
00:29:58,529 --> 00:29:59,789
the heavens.

197
00:30:00,789 --> 00:30:05,089
He who gives clouds, air and winds

198
00:30:05,629 --> 00:30:08,829
their paths, their course and way,

199
00:30:09,769 --> 00:30:13,970
will also find the paths

200
00:30:14,529 --> 00:30:18,129
upon which your foot may walk.

201
00:30:26,229 --> 00:30:29,869
You must trust in the Lord

202
00:30:30,749 --> 00:30:33,749
if all is to go well with you.

203
00:30:38,190 --> 00:30:41,529
You must look to His work

204
00:30:42,090 --> 00:30:45,970
if your own work is to endure.

205
00:30:51,470 --> 00:30:57,990
Through worry and grieving
and self-inflicted pain,

206
00:30:59,430 --> 00:31:05,829
nothing can be taken from God;
it must be gained through prayer.

207
00:31:35,409 --> 00:31:36,409
Why?

208
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:40,640
I am allowed!

209
00:31:42,839 --> 00:31:45,279
I promised the pastor I would help
with reading

210
00:31:45,279 --> 00:31:46,279
and writing.

211
00:31:46,819 --> 00:31:49,899
Several people have come forward
who would like to try.

212
00:31:52,079 --> 00:31:54,119
Can you find no work to do here?

213
00:31:56,119 --> 00:31:57,119
I can.

214
00:31:58,179 --> 00:31:59,759
But I have given my word now.

215
00:32:00,980 --> 00:32:02,459
Perhaps I could accompany you.

216
00:32:05,839 --> 00:32:07,419
It is so quiet here.

217
00:32:16,940 --> 00:32:18,220
That is your name.

218
00:32:20,019 --> 00:32:22,100
Those are five letters
which then repeat.

219
00:32:24,089 --> 00:32:25,389
Would you like to try?

220
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:52,020
Oh, very slowly.

225
00:33:48,289 --> 00:33:49,289
Ah!

228
00:34:19,490 --> 00:34:20,490
Yes, come in.

229
00:34:20,509 --> 00:34:21,509
Wait.

230
00:34:29,350 --> 00:34:31,370
I wished to ask
whether Susanna behaves well.

231
00:34:32,410 --> 00:34:34,049
Whether she is obedient in all things.

232
00:34:34,810 --> 00:34:35,810
Whether she is doing well.

233
00:34:36,870 --> 00:34:38,290
Or whether she refuses you.

234
00:34:40,069 --> 00:34:42,549
Or whether you find
her conduct repellent.

235
00:34:42,690 --> 00:34:43,690
No, no, no.

236
00:34:43,730 --> 00:34:45,870
She is exactly
as you described her to me.

237
00:34:46,990 --> 00:34:47,990
Better still.

238
00:34:52,589 --> 00:34:54,009
Do you know how it is?

239
00:34:54,549 --> 00:34:55,629
With breeding.

240
00:34:58,740 --> 00:35:01,520
A bull that will not mount
is replaced.

241
00:35:02,540 --> 00:35:04,180
We are so occupied
with the work

242
00:35:04,319 --> 00:35:05,859
that I have not considered

243
00:35:05,859 --> 00:35:07,080
breeding the animals as well.

244
00:35:08,299 --> 00:35:11,040
Marriage is a contract
you have entered into.

245
00:35:12,140 --> 00:35:13,700
It is fulfilled only when consummated.

246
00:35:14,919 --> 00:35:17,279
Best do it at once,
or everything is null and void,

247
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:19,560
including every agreement,

248
00:35:22,439 --> 00:35:25,399
such as the land upon which you stand.

249
00:35:28,830 --> 00:35:32,310
You need not concern yourself.
Everything is as it should be.

250
00:36:19,939 --> 00:36:20,939
What is it?

251
00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:24,040
Turn around.

252
00:37:09,839 --> 00:37:10,879
It will come. It will pass.

253
00:37:18,890 --> 00:37:19,890
What is it?

254
00:37:24,270 --> 00:37:26,270
Would you come down
for a moment?

255
00:37:30,519 --> 00:37:31,519
I have conceived.

256
00:37:33,299 --> 00:37:34,299
What?

257
00:37:35,859 --> 00:37:36,859
Conceived.

258
00:37:38,579 --> 00:37:39,899
I am quite certain.

259
00:37:41,220 --> 00:37:43,200
A butterfly just came
through the window

260
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:45,259
and settled upon my belly.

261
00:37:46,140 --> 00:37:47,140
That is the sign.

262
00:37:48,220 --> 00:37:50,019
It happened so to Saint Veronica as well.

263
00:37:51,439 --> 00:37:54,620
It is early yet,
but I congratulate you on the blessing.

264
00:37:54,979 --> 00:37:56,799
Come now! Come!

265
00:38:05,089 --> 00:38:06,089
Farewell. Ciao.

266
00:38:15,370 --> 00:38:17,069
At first, you know how it is—

267
00:38:17,069 --> 00:38:20,230
everything always lies there
in the chest,

268
00:38:21,210 --> 00:38:22,210
but that cannot last forever.

269
00:38:23,589 --> 00:38:25,170
Why is the good meat in the soup today?

270
00:38:27,370 --> 00:38:28,450
It is a feast day, after all.

271
00:38:33,990 --> 00:38:37,890
We would have to build an addition
and fell timber.

272
00:38:40,009 --> 00:38:41,890
We would have to make
an opening in the parlour.

273
00:38:42,129 --> 00:38:43,129
Outwards!

274
00:38:43,689 --> 00:38:45,209
There by the wall would do nicely.

275
00:38:46,290 --> 00:38:47,290
Come on!

276
00:38:55,240 --> 00:38:57,299
One cannot expect a child every time

277
00:38:57,399 --> 00:38:58,879
one performs one's lawful duty.

278
00:38:59,939 --> 00:39:00,939
We shall wait and see.

279
00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:03,560
But it is so.

280
00:39:10,540 --> 00:39:11,540
Yes.

281
00:39:13,390 --> 00:39:14,870
What does Father say?

282
00:39:15,549 --> 00:39:16,549
We shall.

283
00:39:18,890 --> 00:39:20,330
Farewell. Until next time.

284
00:39:42,140 --> 00:39:52,040
A lively, healthy child was born,
though unexpectedly for Rose

285
00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:53,040
and, in some eyes, weeks too early.

286
00:39:57,980 --> 00:40:01,240
And while Susanna readily settled
into her role

287
00:40:01,240 --> 00:40:05,839
as a mother, Rose's paternal feelings

288
00:40:06,799 --> 00:40:09,420
were confusing and more complex in nature.

289
00:40:47,149 --> 00:40:50,009
Nevertheless, everything
had changed for the better.

290
00:40:51,269 --> 00:40:53,789
For in the eyes of the community,
Rose had

291
00:40:53,789 --> 00:40:55,189
risen once more.

292
00:40:56,249 --> 00:41:00,970
She had made the land bloom,
as she had the flower of her wife.

293
00:41:03,689 --> 00:41:06,789
And even if no further children followed,

294
00:41:08,049 --> 00:41:11,809
Rose had already fulfilled
the sole purpose of existence,

295
00:41:12,769 --> 00:41:15,369
the only service owed to the community:

296
00:41:15,809 --> 00:41:19,309
reproduction.

297
00:41:20,649 --> 00:41:23,229
Whatever others may claim.

298
00:41:25,089 --> 00:41:28,350
And yet it is not always,
or necessarily,

299
00:41:28,350 --> 00:41:30,129
the great events

300
00:41:30,309 --> 00:41:32,370
that bring about change.

301
00:41:34,089 --> 00:41:38,189
Small things too
can have great consequences,

302
00:41:39,209 --> 00:41:41,749
like the beating of a butterfly's wings

303
00:41:42,529 --> 00:41:44,309
or the sting of a bee.

304
00:42:02,240 --> 00:42:03,779
I thought you were in the stable.

305
00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:06,919
He is a handful and cries all day.

306
00:42:08,899 --> 00:42:10,220
Now he is awake again.

307
00:42:18,240 --> 00:42:19,240
What is that by your eye?

308
00:42:20,979 --> 00:42:21,979
Nothing.

309
00:42:21,979 --> 00:42:22,979
And there on your hand.

310
00:42:35,939 --> 00:42:37,740
Come quickly! Come!

311
00:42:39,019 --> 00:42:40,019
Come!

312
00:42:43,740 --> 00:42:44,740
Oh!

313
00:42:59,479 --> 00:43:00,859
The sting is still in there.

314
00:43:01,759 --> 00:43:02,759
And up here.

315
00:43:05,319 --> 00:43:06,839
Help me pull him out of his breeches.

316
00:43:08,660 --> 00:43:09,660
Pull!

317
00:43:10,339 --> 00:43:11,339
Pull!

318
00:43:12,819 --> 00:43:13,819
Pull!

319
00:43:19,240 --> 00:43:20,240
There are more.

320
00:43:26,129 --> 00:43:28,589
We must boil water. To the well!

321
00:43:36,189 --> 00:43:39,509
Why are you standing there? Run!
Take the second cauldron too!

322
00:45:15,439 --> 00:45:16,439
Ah!

323
00:45:20,270 --> 00:45:21,850
You will be wondering
what has happened to the master.

324
00:45:34,089 --> 00:45:35,089
Good Lord, man!

325
00:45:37,740 --> 00:45:38,819
Thank you. Farewell!

326
00:45:41,189 --> 00:45:42,889
We may begin!

327
00:45:54,240 --> 00:45:55,399
As you have no...

328
00:46:09,290 --> 00:46:10,770
He is gravely ill.

329
00:46:12,650 --> 00:46:13,650
He must rest.

330
00:46:14,830 --> 00:46:16,110
No one may see him.

331
00:46:17,490 --> 00:46:19,210
Not if we wish to avoid
fearing for his life.

332
00:46:26,930 --> 00:46:28,850
Everything else shall continue as before.

333
00:46:30,290 --> 00:46:31,290
That is what was agreed.

334
00:46:33,029 --> 00:46:34,990
You maids shall work in the fields too.

335
00:46:38,089 --> 00:46:41,129
Until the Saviour restores
the master's health,

336
00:46:41,289 --> 00:46:42,509
for which we shall now pray,

337
00:46:43,769 --> 00:46:45,370
I shall direct the fortunes of us all.

338
00:46:46,329 --> 00:46:47,329
So the Lord wills it.

339
00:46:49,339 --> 00:46:52,519
We go forth and journey,
from one age

340
00:46:52,519 --> 00:46:56,220
to the next; we live
and remember, from the old

341
00:46:56,220 --> 00:46:57,220
unto the new.

342
00:46:57,839 --> 00:47:01,579
Speak Your gentle blessing
upon all our paths.

343
00:47:02,259 --> 00:47:06,019
Let Your sun of grace shine
upon every place,

344
00:47:06,660 --> 00:47:08,339
that we may find peace.

345
00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:44,680
Who are you?

346
00:48:12,890 --> 00:48:13,890
Farewell.

347
00:48:30,410 --> 00:48:31,810
Control yourself!

348
00:49:09,850 --> 00:49:11,209
It is best that I go.

349
00:49:16,189 --> 00:49:17,509
Yes, it would be best.

350
00:49:18,869 --> 00:49:20,149
But you cannot.

351
00:49:21,289 --> 00:49:22,289
You are weak.

352
00:49:24,439 --> 00:49:29,019
You will collapse beyond the next tree,
and there you will be found

353
00:49:29,019 --> 00:49:32,859
by someone else, and then—

354
00:49:32,859 --> 00:49:33,859
and then...

355
00:49:37,240 --> 00:49:39,100
The child is still dependent upon me.

356
00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:44,439
For the next few weeks,
perhaps half a year.

357
00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:47,379
Then it will become easier.

358
00:49:50,240 --> 00:49:52,740
When the roads are clear
of snow and ice,

359
00:49:56,080 --> 00:49:57,080
then you may go.

360
00:50:02,339 --> 00:50:05,620
Until then, there will be ample time
to invent a story.

363
00:50:45,650 --> 00:50:48,790
That night, Rose spoke until dawn.

364
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:55,180
Hesitantly at first,
and then without stopping.

365
00:50:58,589 --> 00:51:01,669
She told of a childhood
in an orphanage,

366
00:51:03,109 --> 00:51:06,109
of how she first came
to put on breeches,

367
00:51:06,890 --> 00:51:09,189
and of every attempt that followed.

368
00:51:10,549 --> 00:51:13,609
Nor did she omit the war
and her life as a soldier.

369
00:51:15,189 --> 00:51:17,109
She spared neither herself nor Susanna.

370
00:51:18,490 --> 00:51:19,769
She told her everything.

371
00:51:20,990 --> 00:51:24,569
Including how she came
to take another man's place

372
00:51:25,009 --> 00:51:26,850
and claim an inheritance.

373
00:51:29,790 --> 00:51:32,070
And how good it felt to speak.

374
00:51:35,270 --> 00:51:38,490
She had often imagined
giving herself up.

375
00:51:40,630 --> 00:51:43,630
Yet even she was surprised
by the relief

376
00:51:44,210 --> 00:51:47,410
of no longer bearing the burden
of her secrets alone.

378
00:51:59,339 --> 00:52:03,979
Only one thing would she not disclose:
her true name.

379
00:52:05,120 --> 00:52:08,700
Thus Susanna could not mistakenly
let it slip

380
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:11,140
at an ill-chosen moment.

382
00:52:24,509 --> 00:52:25,509
What are you doing there?

383
00:52:26,569 --> 00:52:27,569
Looking.

384
00:52:28,390 --> 00:52:29,390
How are you, Meryn?

385
00:52:30,009 --> 00:52:31,009
Poorly.

386
00:52:31,009 --> 00:52:32,009
Go inside.

387
00:52:32,470 --> 00:52:33,950
-No, do not.
-It will give me some air.

388
00:52:34,290 --> 00:52:36,009
Here, I shall open the window for you.

389
00:52:36,990 --> 00:52:37,990
Why are you standing there staring?

390
00:52:38,209 --> 00:52:39,810
Move! He will be all right.

391
00:52:41,490 --> 00:52:42,490
Back to work.

392
00:52:43,169 --> 00:52:44,169
The sow is doing well.

393
00:52:44,330 --> 00:52:45,470
Yes, she will yield plenty of meat.

394
00:52:47,069 --> 00:52:48,069
Back to work.

401
00:54:23,589 --> 00:54:24,589
Cut!

403
00:54:48,549 --> 00:54:49,549
Are you coming?

404
00:54:52,240 --> 00:54:53,720
Who is the child's father?

405
00:55:17,589 --> 00:55:19,950
You will not be alone for long,
once I am finished.

406
00:55:22,169 --> 00:55:23,169
What?

407
00:55:23,970 --> 00:55:25,450
Your father will not permit it.

408
00:55:29,959 --> 00:55:31,779
He would marry you
to the first man who came along,

409
00:55:31,779 --> 00:55:32,939
just as he did with me.

410
00:55:34,559 --> 00:55:35,559
To a stranger.

411
00:55:37,890 --> 00:55:39,990
You feel like the mistress now, yes.

412
00:55:42,270 --> 00:55:43,270
But it does not belong to you.

413
00:55:52,229 --> 00:55:53,229
Perhaps.

414
00:56:00,230 --> 00:56:01,850
Perhaps we need not invent
a new story.

415
00:56:01,850 --> 00:56:05,650
Perhaps everything can remain as it is.

416
00:56:10,689 --> 00:56:12,609
You and I are acknowledged.

417
00:56:14,349 --> 00:56:15,349
As a household.

418
00:56:17,249 --> 00:56:18,249
That is what we are to the others.

419
00:56:23,240 --> 00:56:26,140
That is what grants us freedom.

420
00:56:28,589 --> 00:56:30,229
It need not be otherwise.

421
00:57:17,479 --> 00:57:20,859
Is the bed you sleep in upstairs
a good one?

422
00:57:23,639 --> 00:57:25,979
The servants ought to have
a house of their own.

423
00:57:26,499 --> 00:57:28,799
At the far end of the meadow,
a proper distance away.

424
00:57:29,579 --> 00:57:30,919
And we need an extension.

425
00:57:31,999 --> 00:57:34,139
It will not do for you
to wash secretly in the woods.

426
00:57:34,559 --> 00:57:35,559
You are a young man.

427
00:57:38,640 --> 00:57:42,580
Or a bathhouse. Bathing in the parlour
is dangerous too.

428
00:57:47,419 --> 00:57:48,919
And reading and writing?

429
00:57:54,109 --> 00:57:55,609
You will teach me.

430
00:57:58,290 --> 00:58:01,890
Rose and Susanna had resolved
not

431
00:58:01,890 --> 00:58:03,310
to decide at once.

432
00:58:04,450 --> 00:58:07,029
Everything had already changed.

433
00:58:09,689 --> 00:58:15,069
They walked taller, freer with one another,
more independent.

434
00:58:16,290 --> 00:58:19,210
And perhaps because of that,
they were more affectionate.

435
00:58:20,370 --> 00:58:21,890
For the first time.

436
00:58:24,689 --> 00:58:26,869
All this had come unexpectedly,

437
00:58:28,089 --> 00:58:30,789
as only words spoken aloud

438
00:58:30,789 --> 00:58:32,049
can usually bring about.

439
00:58:34,049 --> 00:58:36,809
But still more was to happen that day.

440
00:58:40,790 --> 00:58:41,790
What is it?

441
00:58:42,029 --> 00:58:44,570
One of the maids had not returned
with the others

442
00:58:44,570 --> 00:58:45,750
at the appointed hour

443
00:58:45,750 --> 00:58:47,490
to the estate.

444
00:58:48,410 --> 00:58:50,770
She was not brought back
until the following day

445
00:58:50,770 --> 00:58:53,570
by her father and brothers.

446
00:58:54,210 --> 00:58:56,370
We searched the forest all night

447
00:58:56,370 --> 00:58:57,370
and were beside ourselves with worry.

448
00:58:58,890 --> 00:59:01,490
I sent those two to the pond
and was setting off for the village.

449
00:59:02,710 --> 00:59:04,029
We did not know.

450
00:59:04,810 --> 00:59:06,290
They found her only this morning,

451
00:59:06,410 --> 00:59:07,509
where she had hidden herself.

452
00:59:07,509 --> 00:59:09,170
Then we set out at once.

453
00:59:12,790 --> 00:59:16,370
Why did you run away
and make us all sick with worry?

454
00:59:16,790 --> 00:59:17,790
Shut your mouth.

455
00:59:17,790 --> 00:59:18,950
But he has such small hands.

456
00:59:19,109 --> 00:59:20,529
I will not have people talking about us.

457
00:59:22,390 --> 00:59:24,129
Apologise to your master
and ask him

458
00:59:24,129 --> 00:59:25,990
to forgive you and take you back.

459
00:59:29,439 --> 00:59:31,419
Life and work are good here.

460
00:59:32,039 --> 00:59:34,039
No worse than elsewhere.
You have never complained.

461
00:59:35,200 --> 00:59:36,619
But I shall not keep you.

462
00:59:37,779 --> 00:59:39,979
Thank you for taking the trouble
to bring me your child,

463
00:59:40,099 --> 00:59:41,939
but who can assure me
she will not run away again?

464
00:59:41,959 --> 00:59:42,999
-Beg him, child. I hope... I hope...
-And must we again,

465
00:59:42,999 --> 00:59:44,539
terrified that some misfortune
has occurred,

466
00:59:44,619 --> 00:59:46,240
set out and abandon all our work?

467
00:59:48,379 --> 00:59:49,459
The master is no man.

468
00:59:49,679 --> 00:59:51,359
-What?
-The master is no man.

469
00:59:51,359 --> 00:59:52,359
Let her speak!

470
00:59:57,970 --> 00:59:59,450
Below, he is said to be like a woman.

471
00:59:59,669 --> 01:00:00,669
We should be silent.

472
01:00:01,470 --> 01:00:02,850
This is utter nonsense.

473
01:00:03,089 --> 01:00:04,390
I know what I saw.

474
01:00:04,490 --> 01:00:05,490
When?

475
01:00:05,990 --> 01:00:07,350
When could you possibly have seen that?

476
01:00:07,629 --> 01:00:08,709
When the master was ill.

477
01:00:09,189 --> 01:00:10,789
What confused nonsense are you saying?

478
01:00:10,890 --> 01:00:11,890
No one was with him.

479
01:00:11,890 --> 01:00:13,490
-At the very beginning?
-I was alone with him.

480
01:00:13,649 --> 01:00:14,649
When the stings were fresh.

481
01:00:14,649 --> 01:00:16,970
We took off his breeches
and removed stings up to here.

482
01:00:17,049 --> 01:00:18,149
What could she have seen?

483
01:00:18,229 --> 01:00:19,410
-How should I know?
-It seems to me

484
01:00:19,490 --> 01:00:20,829
you are not quite right in the head.

485
01:00:21,549 --> 01:00:23,089
That was days ago. Why come only now?

486
01:00:23,149 --> 01:00:24,289
I said so at once.

487
01:00:25,249 --> 01:00:26,490
You laughed at me.

488
01:00:26,490 --> 01:00:28,049
-Liar.
-You ordered me

489
01:00:28,049 --> 01:00:30,950
to hold my tongue
because it made no sense.

490
01:00:31,169 --> 01:00:32,189
-Liar.
-Liar.

491
01:00:32,350 --> 01:00:33,350
-Liar!
-Liar!

492
01:00:33,350 --> 01:00:34,549
-Liar!
-Liar!

493
01:00:34,910 --> 01:00:35,910
Liar!
Liar!

494
01:00:35,950 --> 01:00:36,950
Liar!
Liar!

495
01:00:37,129 --> 01:00:39,249
-Liar!
-Into the house, Susanna!

496
01:00:39,649 --> 01:00:40,850
And yesterday in church?

497
01:00:41,430 --> 01:00:43,370
And all before our very eyes!

498
01:00:43,829 --> 01:00:44,829
Liar!

499
01:00:46,390 --> 01:00:49,970
Your daughter is very young,
yet notices more

500
01:00:49,970 --> 01:00:51,589
than one might suppose,
and hopefully speaks

501
01:00:51,589 --> 01:00:53,650
of things she cannot yet
possibly understand.

502
01:00:56,740 --> 01:00:58,479
We must get to work.

503
01:00:59,259 --> 01:01:01,419
If we are to bring in the harvest
before dark.

504
01:01:01,720 --> 01:01:03,180
We have lost half a day.

505
01:01:04,540 --> 01:01:05,819
And now we are two hands short.

506
01:01:06,979 --> 01:01:08,379
I hope the loss remains small.

507
01:01:12,339 --> 01:01:15,479
Your sons here work
for my father-in-law.

508
01:01:16,319 --> 01:01:17,319
As do I.

509
01:01:20,220 --> 01:01:22,179
Then let us keep all this among ourselves,

510
01:01:23,599 --> 01:01:25,139
so that you suffer no harm from it either.

511
01:01:27,259 --> 01:01:28,259
Yes?

514
01:03:02,509 --> 01:03:04,049
Your sister still needs work.

515
01:03:06,349 --> 01:03:07,349
Yes.

516
01:03:09,839 --> 01:03:10,839
Very well, then.

517
01:03:27,540 --> 01:03:29,380
May you have a blessed night's rest.

518
01:05:30,640 --> 01:05:31,640
Now.

519
01:05:56,390 --> 01:05:58,750
It is quite simple.
We shall settle this here and now.

520
01:05:59,430 --> 01:06:00,430
Settle what?

521
01:06:00,850 --> 01:06:01,950
You provide proof.

522
01:06:02,690 --> 01:06:03,750
That I am a man?

523
01:06:04,190 --> 01:06:05,950
-Yes.
-And the heir to this land.

524
01:06:06,109 --> 01:06:07,109
Not an impostor.

525
01:06:07,350 --> 01:06:08,350
And how am I to do that?

526
01:06:09,569 --> 01:06:10,629
By lowering my breeches?

527
01:06:10,850 --> 01:06:11,850
Showing them my cock?

528
01:06:12,009 --> 01:06:13,730
It would take but a moment,
and the matter would be settled.

529
01:06:15,589 --> 01:06:17,790
This house. Is it real?

530
01:06:18,450 --> 01:06:20,190
The soil there. The land.

531
01:06:21,690 --> 01:06:22,690
The money.

532
01:06:23,810 --> 01:06:26,650
The good wage you received,
and twice as much at Christmas.

533
01:06:27,650 --> 01:06:28,650
Is that a fraud?

534
01:06:28,970 --> 01:06:31,670
And that there is always some of our yield
left over for you?

535
01:06:33,230 --> 01:06:34,230
Or you?

536
01:06:34,770 --> 01:06:37,049
I taught you the alphabet
from A to Z.

537
01:06:37,750 --> 01:06:39,129
The words you can now write.

538
01:06:39,210 --> 01:06:40,950
The contracts you can now read,
so that

539
01:06:40,950 --> 01:06:41,990
no one can cheat you again.

540
01:06:42,310 --> 01:06:44,410
So you never again receive
less than your due.

541
01:06:44,430 --> 01:06:45,430
Is that a fraud too?

542
01:06:46,609 --> 01:06:48,109
That you lost your arm?

543
01:06:48,170 --> 01:06:49,170
Is that real?

544
01:06:50,629 --> 01:06:52,089
That you stand here now?

545
01:06:52,089 --> 01:06:53,589
That you are still alive?

546
01:06:53,950 --> 01:06:54,950
Is that a fraud?

547
01:06:55,850 --> 01:06:57,770
And here, the bullet.

548
01:06:58,170 --> 01:06:59,170
Here. Look at it.

549
01:06:59,950 --> 01:07:00,950
And my flesh.

550
01:07:01,450 --> 01:07:02,609
You cannot see me now, can you?

551
01:07:02,690 --> 01:07:03,770
I ask you to help me.

552
01:07:04,870 --> 01:07:07,589
Did I choose
to have my face shot apart?

553
01:07:07,710 --> 01:07:08,710
For this land and for you.

554
01:07:09,650 --> 01:07:10,650
Is that true as well?

555
01:07:10,650 --> 01:07:14,129
Or is there nothing there—
all smooth and fair, and merely a fraud?

556
01:07:14,830 --> 01:07:15,830
I do not know.

557
01:07:16,230 --> 01:07:17,230
Nor do you.

558
01:07:17,450 --> 01:07:18,970
And perhaps it is therefore best now

559
01:07:18,970 --> 01:07:21,950
that each goes home and considers
what that means.

560
01:07:22,089 --> 01:07:23,089
Fraud.

561
01:07:29,930 --> 01:07:32,730
Have I ever seen your cocks?

562
01:07:33,230 --> 01:07:34,710
Do I ask you about them?

563
01:07:35,410 --> 01:07:36,770
We can gladly do all of that.

564
01:07:37,129 --> 01:07:38,910
But then I want it done officially.

565
01:07:39,390 --> 01:07:41,850
Then I want to see
what every one of you has

566
01:07:41,850 --> 01:07:43,029
between his legs.

567
01:07:43,150 --> 01:07:44,150
Man and woman.

568
01:07:44,210 --> 01:07:45,830
Your cock, and yours.

569
01:07:46,190 --> 01:07:47,790
And your father's.

570
01:07:48,589 --> 01:07:50,609
Fetch me the bailiff.
We shall make it official.

571
01:07:51,450 --> 01:07:53,990
Provided you can afford
the document, of course.

572
01:07:54,710 --> 01:07:56,490
The pastor shall announce it
in church at once.

573
01:07:56,690 --> 01:07:58,290
Better still, from the pulpit.

574
01:07:59,390 --> 01:08:00,390
Go on. Fetch the bailiff.

575
01:08:02,089 --> 01:08:04,350
Then you go, and you two
go with him,

576
01:08:04,410 --> 01:08:05,870
so no one says
I bribed the bailiff.

577
01:08:07,609 --> 01:08:10,130
The rest of you may remain seated
outside my door

578
01:08:10,609 --> 01:08:13,430
and guard it, so you need not
go without the proof

579
01:08:13,509 --> 01:08:14,649
now that you desire it.

580
01:08:15,129 --> 01:08:17,370
And before I am made
to look upon your flesh,

581
01:08:17,430 --> 01:08:18,790
I shall cease to see your faces.

582
01:08:31,630 --> 01:08:34,550
The bailiff was said to have been
no less astonished

583
01:08:34,550 --> 01:08:37,450
by the matter with which

584
01:08:37,450 --> 01:08:38,890
he had been approached.

585
01:08:42,639 --> 01:08:46,719
Yet not even his presence that day

586
01:08:46,719 --> 01:08:49,719
could bear witness
to the demanded proof.

587
01:08:55,740 --> 01:08:58,779
News of the events
had left everyone

588
01:08:58,779 --> 01:09:00,160
profoundly shaken.

589
01:09:02,189 --> 01:09:05,210
The community which had accepted Rose

590
01:09:05,210 --> 01:09:06,349
into its midst

591
01:09:07,429 --> 01:09:10,250
felt defrauded and deceived.

592
01:09:11,689 --> 01:09:14,609
It believed itself, through Rose's deceit,

593
01:09:15,810 --> 01:09:18,269
dishonoured, defiled and sullied.

594
01:09:20,149 --> 01:09:23,689
What they urgently demanded
was a great example,

595
01:09:24,649 --> 01:09:26,349
by which they could cleanse themselves.

596
01:09:28,109 --> 01:09:31,889
And so it had to be made.

597
01:10:48,740 --> 01:10:52,559
On the third day
of their wandering,

598
01:10:52,559 --> 01:10:54,599
several adventurers succeeded

599
01:10:55,460 --> 01:10:58,679
in tracking down the two fugitives

600
01:10:58,679 --> 01:11:00,120
and bringing them back to the village.

601
01:11:14,080 --> 01:11:15,080
Splendid!

602
01:11:17,540 --> 01:11:18,680
Tall domestic animals.

603
01:11:18,880 --> 01:11:19,880
Yes.

604
01:11:23,380 --> 01:11:24,380
Breeches.

605
01:11:50,889 --> 01:11:53,829
But among the learned men
of the land too,

606
01:11:53,829 --> 01:11:55,049
a dispute had broken out:

607
01:11:56,129 --> 01:11:59,789
who was fit to judge
so curious a case

608
01:12:00,209 --> 01:12:01,469
as the one at hand?

609
01:12:05,889 --> 01:12:09,509
For that very reason,
three more months were to pass

610
01:12:11,010 --> 01:12:14,349
before Rose could be given
a proper trial.

611
01:12:33,639 --> 01:12:34,700
You binder!

612
01:12:47,090 --> 01:12:48,370
And the horn.

613
01:13:02,540 --> 01:13:03,600
The thorn.

614
01:13:34,590 --> 01:13:35,590
No.

615
01:13:45,240 --> 01:13:48,800
The examinations have established

616
01:13:48,800 --> 01:13:52,019
that the accused is a healthy woman.

617
01:13:53,200 --> 01:13:54,580
She has nothing male about her.

618
01:13:55,960 --> 01:13:59,420
Her clitoris is of normal size;

619
01:13:59,420 --> 01:14:02,740
she could not have penetrated
her supposed wife with it.

620
01:14:05,920 --> 01:14:08,920
Semen, however,
evidently flowed in the other direction,

621
01:14:08,920 --> 01:14:10,240
as indeed it must have done,

622
01:14:11,800 --> 01:14:14,260
since the accused is with child.

623
01:14:31,040 --> 01:14:36,319
She is a woman,
but has long presented herself as a man.

624
01:14:38,260 --> 01:14:39,260
Yes.

625
01:14:43,740 --> 01:14:45,040
And the inheritance—

626
01:14:47,380 --> 01:14:48,380
to whom does it belong?

627
01:14:53,090 --> 01:14:56,849
He was a comrade, a friend.
He often spoke of it,

628
01:14:56,849 --> 01:14:58,349
at great length.

629
01:15:00,370 --> 01:15:02,990
Of returning after the war,
and what it would be like.

630
01:15:05,139 --> 01:15:06,339
But he fell.

631
01:15:07,419 --> 01:15:09,099
His leg was blown off,

632
01:15:10,319 --> 01:15:11,939
and he bled to death.

633
01:15:15,439 --> 01:15:16,799
So I took his belongings.

634
01:15:21,889 --> 01:15:24,429
Including this—the document.

635
01:15:26,649 --> 01:15:32,309
I thought it a shame
if no one claimed it and carried on.

636
01:15:33,349 --> 01:15:34,349
We were like brothers, after all.

637
01:15:37,450 --> 01:15:38,450
And this?

638
01:15:41,990 --> 01:15:42,990
Yes.

639
01:15:46,099 --> 01:15:47,099
Where did she get that?

640
01:15:48,599 --> 01:15:49,959
In the war as well.

641
01:15:52,490 --> 01:15:56,389
At times, under orders,
we too were made to show the vanquished

642
01:15:56,389 --> 01:15:58,229
who was master.

643
01:16:01,590 --> 01:16:02,770
Under orders.

644
01:16:03,050 --> 01:16:04,050
Yes.

645
01:16:06,819 --> 01:16:07,819
It was foolish.

646
01:16:09,490 --> 01:16:10,490
And brutal.

647
01:16:13,519 --> 01:16:15,399
But it would have been dangerous for me

648
01:16:15,399 --> 01:16:17,819
had I not joined in,
so I had that done to me.

649
01:16:19,740 --> 01:16:21,379
No one noticed a thing.

650
01:16:23,590 --> 01:16:26,010
And your supposed wife now?

651
01:16:28,389 --> 01:16:31,669
She knew nothing.
She bears no guilt.

652
01:16:31,769 --> 01:16:33,129
Please, she must be released.

653
01:16:34,069 --> 01:16:35,509
But who fathered her child?

654
01:16:42,490 --> 01:16:43,510
And this?

655
01:16:45,920 --> 01:16:48,680
Was I too shown who was master?

656
01:16:48,819 --> 01:16:49,819
Who?

657
01:16:50,120 --> 01:16:51,420
I do not know. There were four of them.

658
01:16:59,010 --> 01:17:00,450
Why did you act as you did?

659
01:17:05,490 --> 01:17:08,389
I thought I would see what was possible.

660
01:17:13,330 --> 01:17:14,330
What?

661
01:17:15,599 --> 01:17:17,529
That I could live this way.

662
01:17:19,569 --> 01:17:20,609
As a man?

663
01:17:22,490 --> 01:17:24,490
No. I did not wish to be a man.

664
01:17:25,910 --> 01:17:26,910
Then what?

665
01:17:29,740 --> 01:17:36,040
There was more freedom in breeches,
and they are only a piece of cloth.

666
01:17:36,960 --> 01:17:38,059
I have nothing more in my breeches.

667
01:17:40,779 --> 01:17:41,859
Who permitted you to do that?

668
01:17:46,440 --> 01:17:47,440
No one.

669
01:17:48,420 --> 01:17:49,420
Oh, no one?

670
01:17:52,040 --> 01:17:53,040
I did.

671
01:17:55,139 --> 01:17:57,299
So you created yourself.

672
01:17:59,439 --> 01:18:01,379
Community can exist only with rules.

673
01:18:02,160 --> 01:18:04,399
And rules are determined by facts.

674
01:18:05,179 --> 01:18:07,079
Yet between your legs

675
01:18:07,079 --> 01:18:09,240
no male organ of generation was found,

676
01:18:09,999 --> 01:18:11,059
but rather a hole.

677
01:18:12,459 --> 01:18:13,959
One may desire the impossible.

678
01:18:14,559 --> 01:18:15,939
One cannot live it.

679
01:18:16,379 --> 01:18:19,119
And by attempting
to live the impossible,

680
01:18:19,459 --> 01:18:21,660
you chose to defy reality.

681
01:18:21,660 --> 01:18:23,200
And necessity,

682
01:18:23,200 --> 01:18:26,899
which, for you, consists in your body's
demands

683
01:18:26,899 --> 01:18:27,999
being obeyed.

684
01:18:28,359 --> 01:18:30,979
You placed yourself above the law

685
01:18:30,979 --> 01:18:33,459
which alone makes communal life possible.

686
01:18:33,759 --> 01:18:36,479
And when you set yourself against reality,

687
01:18:36,959 --> 01:18:39,919
against necessity
and against the laws,

688
01:18:40,299 --> 01:18:42,819
you also set yourself
against the community.

689
01:18:43,139 --> 01:18:45,099
That is what you chose.

690
01:18:45,419 --> 01:18:48,719
That is the possibility
by which to live,

691
01:18:49,099 --> 01:18:50,859
whose freedom you took for yourself.

692
01:18:55,740 --> 01:19:01,420
Did you always truly believe
you could succeed?

693
01:19:03,540 --> 01:19:04,819
Do you feel no guilt?

694
01:19:09,389 --> 01:19:11,529
The one guilty before the community

695
01:19:13,790 --> 01:19:15,130
is no longer part of it.

696
01:19:17,149 --> 01:19:18,670
He must be removed.

697
01:19:20,170 --> 01:19:21,170
For a time.

698
01:19:22,029 --> 01:19:23,029
Into the dungeon.

699
01:19:24,670 --> 01:19:25,670
For ever.

700
01:19:27,389 --> 01:19:28,509
And then put to death.

701
01:19:32,590 --> 01:19:36,370
But perhaps no limits
can be placed upon you.

702
01:19:37,690 --> 01:19:39,330
Perhaps you will grow wings

703
01:19:39,330 --> 01:19:42,670
and simply fly away from us.

704
01:19:45,569 --> 01:19:47,250
Or do you not consider that possible?

706
01:20:18,689 --> 01:20:20,509
Sentence has been passed.

707
01:20:22,689 --> 01:20:23,689
The sword.

708
01:20:28,800 --> 01:20:30,580
As soon as she has given birth.

709
01:20:32,889 --> 01:20:35,029
No harm is to come to the child,

710
01:20:35,089 --> 01:20:36,749
for that would offend God's commandments.

711
01:20:44,740 --> 01:20:47,000
She will remain here until her confinement.

712
01:20:53,090 --> 01:20:57,590
Judgment has also been passed
upon Susanna.

713
01:20:59,569 --> 01:21:00,569
The sack and the river.

714
01:21:03,790 --> 01:21:06,430
The sentence was carried out at once.

715
01:21:08,740 --> 01:21:12,719
She is said not to have taken it well,

716
01:21:14,960 --> 01:21:18,000
and caused her executioner
much trouble and toil,

717
01:21:20,139 --> 01:21:22,240
and herself much pain.

718
01:21:42,510 --> 01:21:46,189
Merciful Father, in the face of death,

719
01:21:46,189 --> 01:21:48,089
I confess to You my sins and misdeeds,

720
01:21:48,729 --> 01:21:51,289
committed in thought,
word and deed.

721
01:21:52,309 --> 01:21:54,229
I grieve for them sincerely and repent.

722
01:21:55,589 --> 01:21:58,509
I beseech You, for the sake
of the bitter, innocent suffering

723
01:21:58,509 --> 01:22:00,549
and death of Your Son, Jesus Christ,

724
01:22:00,549 --> 01:22:01,549
to grant this prayer.

725
01:22:01,669 --> 01:22:03,529
Be gracious to me, a sinful mortal,

726
01:22:03,529 --> 01:22:05,529
and my shameful deeds
for all eternity...

727
01:22:05,529 --> 01:22:09,129
forgive, that I may be worthy
to enter Your house.

728
01:22:10,969 --> 01:22:14,289
Merciful Father, in the face of death,

729
01:22:14,289 --> 01:22:16,309
I confess to You my sins and misdeeds.

730
01:22:28,540 --> 01:22:30,540
They sell it on every corner.

731
01:22:33,439 --> 01:22:34,879
Three sellers on the way here alone.

732
01:22:39,240 --> 01:22:40,600
They shout themselves hoarse.

733
01:22:41,819 --> 01:22:44,120
They cannot pocket the kreuzers fast enough.

734
01:22:47,889 --> 01:22:49,789
This is what people say about her.

735
01:22:54,240 --> 01:22:55,279
Is that how it happened?

736
01:22:57,540 --> 01:23:00,760
In the final weeks of her life,

737
01:23:00,760 --> 01:23:02,740
Rose had found one last task,

738
01:23:03,319 --> 01:23:05,920
which she was determined to finish.

739
01:23:07,620 --> 01:23:09,920
Others had decided the course of her life,

740
01:23:10,740 --> 01:23:13,760
but Rose would not surrender her story.

741
01:23:14,680 --> 01:23:17,460
She had begun to write herself.

742
01:23:19,200 --> 01:23:21,140
It was intended for no one else,

743
01:23:22,300 --> 01:23:23,460
only for herself.

744
01:23:24,560 --> 01:23:27,920
And having reached
the point of her present,

745
01:23:28,720 --> 01:23:30,740
she wrote herself beyond it,

746
01:23:31,760 --> 01:23:33,380
giving herself a fantasy

747
01:23:33,819 --> 01:23:35,939
of how things might have been.

748
01:23:37,019 --> 01:23:40,279
For impossibility is only a word.

749
01:23:41,359 --> 01:23:43,540
And words could be changed.

750
01:23:44,859 --> 01:23:47,720
Once spoken, they exist in the world.

751
01:23:48,560 --> 01:23:52,000
They become reality
and bring reality in their wake.

752
01:23:54,020 --> 01:23:56,519
All this passed through Rose's mind

753
01:23:57,019 --> 01:23:59,420
while elsewhere there was talk

754
01:24:00,100 --> 01:24:02,920
of separating Rose's head from her body.

755
01:24:10,590 --> 01:24:15,370
The prisoner has asked
to rehearse her execution.

756
01:24:17,069 --> 01:24:19,350
We have agreed to grant her request.

757
01:24:20,890 --> 01:24:22,210
And you will assist her.

758
01:24:31,590 --> 01:24:36,690
Forgive me, God; forgive me, King;
forgive me, people.

759
01:24:43,130 --> 01:24:47,189
Forgive me, God; forgive me, King;
forgive me, people.

760
01:24:55,360 --> 01:25:00,200
Forgive me, God; forgive me, King;
forgive me, people.

761
01:25:00,260 --> 01:25:01,260
And the executioner?

762
01:25:13,790 --> 01:25:15,109
Do you confess your guilt?

763
01:25:15,750 --> 01:25:16,750
Yes.

764
01:25:17,210 --> 01:25:19,410
Then pay your executioner
with the coin,

765
01:25:31,920 --> 01:25:35,359
and receive your punishment
as purification.

766
01:26:13,389 --> 01:26:14,569
Clench your teeth!

767
01:26:32,190 --> 01:26:34,990
Now that all has run its course,
the execution will be tomorrow.

768
01:26:37,290 --> 01:26:39,390
Do you wish to see the child
once more beforehand?

769
01:26:39,670 --> 01:26:40,670
No.

770
01:26:42,139 --> 01:26:43,619
It can be brought here.

771
01:26:49,700 --> 01:26:52,100
It is not because I am heartless or hard.

772
01:26:54,590 --> 01:26:56,670
For the little child, it is...

773
01:27:00,120 --> 01:27:01,939
I would not merely look upon its face;

774
01:27:02,040 --> 01:27:03,340
it would look upon mine too.

775
01:27:08,530 --> 01:27:11,050
It must have no image of me,

776
01:27:11,050 --> 01:27:13,210
so it need not search for me
in the world when it is older.

777
01:27:46,310 --> 01:27:49,610
The executioner's first stroke
fell badly

778
01:27:49,610 --> 01:27:53,510
and hacked into Rose's shoulder.

779
01:27:55,190 --> 01:27:57,090
The second struck more truly.

780
01:27:59,810 --> 01:28:04,610
After her death, Rose's body
was dismembered and burned,

781
01:28:04,610 --> 01:28:08,590
and the ashes scattered
in an unknown place,

782
01:28:09,029 --> 01:28:12,830
so that no memory of her would remain.

783
01:28:19,309 --> 01:28:21,669
Today I thought perhaps
we do not come from God at all.

784
01:28:27,240 --> 01:28:29,979
We merely imagined
and invented ourselves.

785
01:28:36,240 --> 01:28:38,340
Then I grew quite calm and said:

786
01:28:40,800 --> 01:28:42,319
This is as far as I have come,

787
01:28:45,389 --> 01:28:46,969
and I have done what I could.
