Good morning, Sister

Good morning, Maria

You startled me, Marcello

I wanted to show you this lamb. It was born last week

The family grows...

See how much it weighs

At least two bags of rice or two barrels of wheat

Come and see me if he has any problems

Where's the rest of them?

There

Here...

Go on...

Take a bite

Still not done? What've you been up to?

Lazy creature!

I should have the pair of you locked up for a week

Dinner still not ready? You worthless creature

Look at this! What a disgusting mess...!

Only fit for animals!

Dinner's late again

What's wrong sister?

- I want to die - Why?

I've always felt this way

When you take religious orders you must change the way you think

You are a nun, Sister

I came here to hide from the world

I don't understand

My color, Sister. That's my curse

I just want to die

No

My parents were slaves. I was born a slave

I'm tired of being mistreated

I came to the convent to escape all that

But nothings changed. I wish I'd never been born

I wish I'd never been born

Even here I'm treated badly

Sister, death is no solution

We don't own our lives

They belong now to our beloved Lord

Good morning, Sister

Come in

- Hail Mary the Most Pure - God be with you

Sister, Sofia's cow is sick

Mother Superior wants you to help

She says you know about these things

I think it's a lung infection

She's very sick

Sister Caridad, bring me some pine needles,

some mint and grass

And you, Sister, start to make a fire

Oil, Sister

You can go now. The worst is over

I'll stay. Go and get some sleep

God be with you, Sister

Can I help you?

Sister Maria, I've come to make a confession

I put my life in your hands

But why confide in me?

You should see the Mother Superior

Please, Sister Maria...

only you can help me

I trust only you

Very well, tell me...

Maria... Sister... The truth is...

I love you

I don't understand, Sister

Observing your virtue, your depth, your purity...

I fell in love with you

I love you Maria. Forgive me...

My name is Luzbel, Sister...

Call me Lucifer...

Mephisto...

If you want me...

If you need me...

just think of me

I am everywhere

In your mind for eternity

All your life, I shall be with you

"it is impossible to describe the face of a sinner"

"In fact, in a society of the damned they all look the same"

"In general they are fearsome; lifeless, like a corpse"

"Some are black... Some burn like a torch"

"Some are found in food or in ulcerated flesh"

"Many are cursed. Instead of a face, they have fur"

"You can only see their teeth and their monstrous bodies"

Good morning, Marcello

Morning, Maria

Do you know the story of the King of the River?

It's just a fairy tale, and you're too old for those now

- Do you have a girlfriend? - No, Mother, I swear it

It's not a bad thing. You'll soon be a man

Maybe you already are

Yes, you are a man... I'm right, aren't I?

Do you want to show me how much?

It's me, Sister Clemencia. Open up

What is it?

Can't you say?

My shoulder... It really hurts

I fear it might be serious

- You must have sinned - No, Sister. I never sin

I've been here many years and am free of sin

Maybe... But you have the Devil's mark

Look! I have one too...

Don't lie to me

Sister... I know you have studied medicine

I know you can cure me

Does it still hurt?

What took you so long?

I was praying, Mother

I saw Sister Clemencia running away What happened?

She wanted me to cure her. But I couldn't

She's really...very sick

Do you know what it is?

My daughter, what troubles you?

Nothing, Mother

I can sense that you have something to tell me

But you're afraid

Our community is based on trust, forgiveness, help...

Why not let me help you?

Why won't you talk to me? Have you had wicked thoughts?

I was praying, Mother. I'm alright

I don't see the prayer book

It fell when I answered the door. I think it's under the bed

I'll pray for you, Mother... And for Clemencia

Sister Clemencia is very sick, Mother...

In here

Good evening, Mother. It's nice to see you

But why are you wandering here alone?

I heard Marcello was ill. I hope it's not serious

I came to see him

No, Mother. Marcello isn't ill

He's just very tired and is sleeping

But please come in. Please, give him your blessing

In there, Mother

Come in

Hail Mary the Pure

What's wrong, Sister?

We came to ask if you want to go with us...

to the funeral of Marcello and his grandmother

No! What happened?

A fire... They burned to death in their sleep

The villagers brought the bodies here

Where are the bodies?

In the chapel, waiting for burial

May I... I want to be alone with the bodies

I wish to pray for them

You know how much I loved Marcello

Rest in peace

When the bells sound, I shall return from my vigil

Very well, Sister

Your sins know no bounds!

You have offended the Lord with your actions

I tried to help but you rejected me

- Do you hate me? - No...

The Holy Inquisition will judge your sins

The important thing is to save your soul

- But I have done nothing - You plead innocence?

No, I am not innocent

The Devil lives inside me

I don't fear Hell...

for I AM Hell!

Pray that the Lord does not hear you

I shall ascend to the highest point of heaven...

and build my throne next to the stars

I'm more powerful than God

I'll not serve him,

but revolt against him!

Silence! You speak the words of Satan!

I'll do as my master says

I'll gather together all those...

most pure in heart and soul...

have them follow after me, then torture them all...

in the darkest realms of Hell!

You are damned!

Oh! Lord forgive me

I've always hated you

Ever since you stole my place here

ls everything ready?

Yes, it's sad the Lord took Marcello and his grandmother

He was so young

Lord, if I worshipped you because I feared Hell,

then let me burn in Hell

If I loved you only in hope of Heaven,

then exclude me from it

But if I loved you for yourself, then am I your daughter

Your daughter...

Don't deny me your wonders

Sister... I've come to save you

You will be the happiest of all women

Begone and leave me with my pain, damn you!

You turned me into a monster. Begone!

Accept me and you shall become Mother Superior

I wish to die in peace. Begone, Lucifer!

Look, Sister, the nuns are coming to take you to the Inquisition

They bring the fiery cross

You know what that means

Before killing you, they will torture you

Your mouth will be ripped open

It will be filled with molten lead

Your body torn into a thousand pieces

Your screams will echo through the valley

They will all watch you die

Think of that

Think!

Do you wish to be Mother Superior?

You will be happy and important

Silence, you have tempted me enough

Begone, Satan!

In the name of Christ!

Luzbel! Luzbel! I accept your bargain

laccepfl

Sister, we have chosen you as our new Mother Superior

Do you accept? Your virtue honors our community

Please accept to be Mother Superior

With you, we will all go to glory

Cease your penitence. Guide us into the light

Sister Maria, lead us to the Lord

Sister Maria, lead us to the Lord

- Accept, Sister Maria - Without you, we are lost

You are our guide

The purest

The most good

The most virtuous

I had decided to die here, in torment

But if the community wants me, I accept

Even though there are others more deserving

See, I kept my promise. You're no longerjust a nun

Those in Hell do not see their imperfections

In air, fire and water their breath their own atmosphere...

to reach their goal

Now you're Mother Superior their spiritual guide

Go on...

Go and enjoy yourself

But first...

go to the balcony. The town waits to greet its chosen one

Bye, Mother Superior!

Hail! Hail! Hail the Mother Superior

Hail! Hail! Hail the Mother Superior

Hail! Hail! Hail the Mother Superior

All Sister Maria's suffering is over now

She's gone to the glory of God

So sad she was locked up like this

We tried to protect her from the plague,

yet it still took her life

Let us pray that her soul may rest in eternal peace

- Well? - Yes, Mother Superior...

Sister Maria has gone to heaven

After seven days of suffering she finally gave up her spirit

I'll arrange for a Mass, and the funeral
