(canine howling)

- [Chrysula] We were but few in the beginning

who did not feel as the slave beings

we were told by men we should be.

- Come on, let's see if Adinya's baby's arrived!

- Hey, wait for me!

- [Chrysula] As our belief that we were not below them grew,

so did our courage and strength,

until we fought our way free of their domination

to become our own masters.

(goats bleating)

Out of fear and hatred of what we stood for,

they pursued us relentlessly.

To elude them, we became nomads.

And in our freedom, (girls laughing)

We found we had all that men could give us except one thing,

the seed to plant life inside us

that we might bear children.

Lacking that, we were driven to go among them

when our bodies became fertile.

In order to hold our nation safe and our beliefs pure,

we gave away all male offspring.

(baby crying) (onlookers excitedly murmur)

- Male child.

- [All] Aw! (murmuring)

- I think you can give this one away

when she goes to make the next one.

- (laughing) That'd be tomorrow.

- Exactly!

- [Chrysula] Many of our women prefer to bear arms

rather than children.

The champion of these was...

- Hundra!

(horse neighs)

- Beast?

Come on, coward.

We search for food today, not trouble.

(Beast whines)

I think fear would not run so deep in you were you not male.

(Beast whining)

- Hundra, how long will you be away?

- [Hundra] Until I get enough meat for the week.

- Instead of hunting, you should think like Adinya,

of bringing life to the village.

- (laughs) Adinya...

Adinya brings enough life into the village for five.

No sooner than she heals,

she makes the men bloat her again.

- You are the eldest of the tribe

who has not brought a successor.

I see you're Shandrom's scion.

Would you let your own sister go before you?

- (giggles) Uh-huh.

- Several times.

Bear two, one for each of us.

(child giggles)

I prefer the feel of a horse between my legs

to the that swine.

And it pleasures me instead of pains me. (chuckles)

- Oh. (chuckles)

(horse whinnies)

- [Chrysula] We became more and more secure

with those such as Hundra nearby.

We laughed often and were at peace.

But then, after a lengthy period of tranquility,

what we had momentarily forgotten to fear happened.

(buzzards squawking)

(tense music)

- Weary and completely alone,

Hundra heeded the stories of our short history

and sought the solitude of the final elder for guidance.

It was with anger and confusion

that she arrived here to me.

(Beast growling)

Hold.

(dogs growling)

(dogs panting)

- You are Chrysula.

- And you are all that are left of our tribe.

- Hundra.

(Chrysula moaning)

I did not want to believe

even when it was foreshown to me.

- Had more thought of strength and skills,

rather than seeking men and producing offspring.

You would have been spared.

- And then our liberation would have died anyway.

- Yes, wise one.

- Without a man to plant inside us,

we have nothing to cultivate.

We have use of men through their use of us, Hundra.

- No man will ever penetrate my body

with sword or himself.

- With sword? No.

Because then, that would be our true end.

But, with himself--

- No!

- Yes!

You are the ember

of our fire of freedom.

And the destiny of that freedom

has become your destiny alone.

You, Hundra, are our entire nation.

All that is left to fan our belief into flame again.

(inspiring music)

You are young and strong.

The fruit you will bear will be the same.

- How will I know

if I am wise in my choice of man?

- The planting of the seed is unimportant.

10 I bore for us

and found each man to be different.

Others bore more and found great pleasure in seeking.

- Where then will I find the best?

- The most hungry to demonstrate their virility

will be found to the south

in the land with the sign of the bull.

- But it was man of the sign who destroyed our tribe.

- Then it let it be the men of that sign who replenish it.

- So that we may never die out completely, ancient one,

I will instruct her well in survival.

She will be as myself.

- Strength in weapons alone

will not keep our belief alive.

Put your sword away, Hundra.

Teach her well that part of you needed for survival,

but,

teach her also that she will be her strongest

when she believes completely in herself.

Soon it will be my time to go.

I will wait here

until you return with your girl child

for me to gaze upon.

Go now,

fulfill your destiny.

Even though she now must go among men,

Hundra would not be subservient to them

for their desires alone.

(tense music)

- I will pass.

I have no purpose with you, little man.

(goats bleating)

- [Chrysula] Though she expected no more from any man

than she received with her first attempt,

she felt that here in the city which housed many,

a better choice might be found.

(townsfolk chattering)

(dramatic music)

- [Woman] Dan ya, come help me!

- [Man] Come on!

- You're going to the temple! - No! Please, no!

(women shouting) (men grunting)

(screams) She's so young. Please?

- Nepakin has more than enough for his needs.

Leave her!

- Stand back, old man,

and do finish off the rest of your days!

(women screaming)

(dramatic music)

- Leave her! Leave her alone!

No! - Get away!

- Get that horse away! (groans)

(horse neighing)

- Get away! Away!

(townsfolk murmuring)

{man shouting)

- Come on! You're coming with us!

You're coming with us!

(horse neighs) (women shouting)

Shut up, woman. Stop struggling!

- Thank you for trying to help my granddaughter.

I'm Landrazza.

And you might be known by?

- Hundra.

- [Landrazza] You are obviously a stranger here.

- Yes.

- Come inside and share some food.

We have an empty plate now.

(dramatic music)

- Would you say she has possibilities, great Nepakin?

- Not boundless.

- Nah. (grunts)

(Rothrar hums)

Hmm?

- No doubt her best feature.

(Rothrar chuckles)

(Rothrar sniffing)

- (groans) Offspring of a fish monger, ew!

- Bathe her well in lemon water.

(Rothrar groans)

The quality of the cattle here is dropping.

We must improve it!

The chieftains will tighten their purses before long

unless we find better stock.

- Cleanse them well.

- Perhaps we should think of taking slaves from other tribes

to freshen interest.

We do have a reputation to maintain, you realize, and--

(girl screaming)

- Hold, please! Leave her!

I beg you! - Don't touch me!

- Take her away, idiots!

- Off of me! Get away!

- Tracima, take that wench with the others!

- No! (screaming)

- You, remain.

- Get off of her! (women screaming)

No! No, please!

- [Rothrar] Why were you late?

- We were interfered with by a woman.

- What manner of female fool would meddle in men's affairs?

- Yes, women may be inherently ignorant,

but not totally stupid in most instances.

- She was not from here.

She rode a big horse that she controlled with great skill.

She was fair of hair.

She was big and dressed unlike any other female

I have have ever seen.

- (chuckles) Bring her to the temple.

Perhaps she has the freshness we require.

- Mm, have a chieftain send warriors with you

should you feel the need of protection.

Think on it, Greatness,

the donations will be large for so different an animal!

I shutter with excitement!

- I too.

Come prepare me for the celebration.

With pleasure, High Priest.

Preparing women all day is so exasperating.

Their lack of physical conditioning and care is matched

only by their non-existent mentality.

And their gruesome bodily functions are so--

- Rothrar, cease your babble.

- Yes, Master.

- What will become of your granddaughter?

- She will be taken to the temple,

groomed, taught womanly manners

and ways to please their chieftains.

She will become an object of beauty

for those that know nothing about beauty,

but she will always be used.

- Some women have a reason to be used, but never by force.

- You, woman, come with us. (Beast whines)

I said, you, come with us!

- Why?

- Because High Priest Nepakin demands it.

- (chuckles) No man demands anything of me.

- Get her.

(Hundra grunting)

- Whoa! (groaning)

(Landrazza laughing)

(soldier shouting)

(soldier groans)

(dramatic music)

- Stop her! Stop that woman!

(Hundra shouts at horse)

Stop her! Stop her!

(Hundra shouting) (horse neighing)

Hyah!

- Don't let her reach the main gate!

(horse neighing)

(Hundra shouts)

Out of my way! Out of my way!

We want her alive!

You two, up there. You, on the east wall.

(suspenseful music)

(Hundra grunts) (man screaming)

(Hundra grunting)

- Ah! Oh, oh, oh, oh! (screaming)

(Hundra coughing)

(Hundra moaning)

(warm music)

- I can see by your appearance,

doors may not be normal to you, but the roof?

Are you alright?

(Hundra gasps)

Do not worry.

I'm Pateray the healer.

I want to see if you've broken anything in your fall.

Do you speak?

- You will mate with me and make a child.

- I did not see your head strike anything

and I'm sure mine is intact.

Who are you?

- Hundra.

- Tarkome, are you feeling better?

- I'm feeling much better, thank you.

- [Tracima] My son is alright?

- As well as tolan and dry fruit allows a young stomach.

He will be fine.

- You have business.

- Yes, that of healing my roof.

- I must get him home and myself back to the temple

before I am missed.

Goodbye and thank you. - Mm, mm.

- Tarkome, what do you say?

- Thank you. (Pateray chuckles)

- And now?

- Did you make that child?

- (chuckles) No.

- Good, 'cause you're gonna make girls.

- I think it is about time you left.

(knife thuds)

- You are my choice for mating.

- But you are not mine.

(knife thuds)

A man cannot be forced to make love.

- Men force women.

- Yes, but there is natural difference between us.

I would have to be aroused in order to...

(knife thuds)

And that doesn't help at all.

- If I remove the knives?

If I looked as that woman did before, could you?

- Seek is more appealing to loving than steal.

- She's from the temple? - Yes.

- Hmm.

Then I will go there and become like her.

- Wait. The temple is dangerous.

- (chuckles) Nothing can harm me.

It is not my destiny.

(dramatic music)

(arrow whooshes)

- Now you'll come with us to the temple.

(dramatic music)

(people reveling)

(women laughing)

{man growling)

(all reveling)

(man laughing hysterically)

(people reveling)

(man laughing)

- The time is too long to teach for their patience.

(men laughing)

- Oh, come on! Come here! (laughing)

(gong resonating)

- The bull!

- [All] The bull!

- Praise the bull!

- [All] Praise the bull!

(dramatic music)

- Praise the bull!

- Praise the bull! - Praise the bull!

- Welcome mighty chieftains.

We are again together

for the night of the pure.

But first, according to our order,

you will pledge donation

for those to be changed for our next celebration.

(crowd murmuring)

(men laughing)

- This breed I know not,

butt line suggest it was made for pleasure riding.

{man laughs)

- It would be long and smooth.

There is much stamina in the flanks,

and the hind quarters. (grunts)

She is not docile!

{men murmuring)

- No! (laughs)

It's wild!

There is no pleasure in that.

{men chuckling)

There would be too much to fear.

It would rip your throat to enjoy the coupling.

- You would know much about fear.

It is the coward's strongest emotion.

(men protesting)

- There is much in her too manly.

- And much in you that is not.

(men chattering)

- Can you teach her what a woman's mouth is for?

{men chatter)

- It might not be simple.

- I would donate a thousand gold pieces to discover.

- Perhaps, it's not impossible.

- A thousand dogs to see her on her knees!

- That still would not make me lower than you.

- Another thousand!

{men clamoring)

- All night!

- [Men] All night!

- So it will be.

And now we continue the celebration.

(gong resonating) (men reveling)

- Mighty Chieftains,

the virgins for whom you donated two months ago

no longer slovenly and wreaking,

but due to our efforts, sleek and beautiful.

Feast your eyes on them before you feast your flesh.

(men exclaiming)

Beauties transformed, who have never been touched,

great warriors,

but who this night will lend the power

and pleasure of the bull.

(men laughing)

As he commands, so do you obey.

Bow to your superiors.

(men laughing)

And to the bull.

{men grumbling)

(bull snorts) (men cheer)

(men cheering)

{men roaring)

(woman giggling)

{men grumbling)

- Come on! - Come on!

{men shouting) (woman squealing)

- I will never bow or submit.

(collegial music)

(women chattering)

(woman laughing)

I thought I would be cleansed, not dirtied further.

- This will smooth your skin

and make your scars less noticeable.

- Those are marks of bravery.

- Men judge women's bravery by child birth marks,

not by battle scars such as your own.

(Hundra sighs)

- Men do not appreciate what women go through for them.

- They appreciate it we do our duty for them.

Else, they will have nothing to do with us.

(Hundra sighs)

- (shouting) Ow!

- Men like well kept hair.

- Such as their own! (screams)

(collegial music)

- Oh, all she displays is beauteousness.

Precious. - Hmm.

The appearance is much improved, but what of the attitude?

- There is much rebellion to our ways in her, High Priest.

- Is it not your position, Tracima,

to remove that from her?

- Yes.

- Then why haven't you done it?

- Because it is not my choice.

- Your choice was made

when you were thrown from your bitch as a female.

The outcome of that is that you are to serve men.

- I serve no one.

- Silence!

- You will pay, as you will,

unless you double your pitiful effort

and make her accept the truth.

- I accept only truth and speak it as well.

- | said silence!

- Remain calm, mighty one.

- You realize that women mouths often babble

without benefit of mind.

To reach that elusive element,

one must think as deviously as they.

Allow me.

From time to time, there have been rumors

that one of our women has a son

hidden with a family in the city.

Since you speak only truth,

tell me,

have you heard such?

- I have not heard.

- Pity.

I would like an end put to that rumor,

since, often, the chieftains request

their male droppings be given to them.

You understand, don't you, Tracima?

- Yes.

- You will increase your instruction

on the barbarian's attitude, won't you?

- Yes, great Rothrar.

- Good.

Now go, and be about your business!

(pigs grunting)

(Tracima sobs)

- He knows.

He knows!

Thank you for saying nothing, but it was no use.

- Don't cry.

Fight back!

- I do not fight. I survive.

And for that, I do what they say,

no matter how stupid it seems.

For now, you must learn

that man is a dominant being over us all.

- You are wrong, man is not dominant!

And in order to survive, you must fight!

- I must protect my son.

- And you will!

Look, I can pretend to learn their ways

so that no harm comes to either of you,

but, you must accept my teachings in return.

(dramatic music)

Come, let us bathe and make ourselves beautiful,

and I will teach you how to dominate the dominant.

(both laugh)

(Tracima groans)

No, watch my eyes,

not my hands.

They'll tell you what I'm going to do.

Let's try it again.

(Hundra groaning)

(both laughing)

(Tracima gasps)

(Hundra yells) (both laughing)

(refined music)

(Hundra groans)

(Hundra grunts)

(Hundra shouts)

(Hundra groaning)

(both laugh)

(plodding music)

(Tracima sighs)

(Hundra sighs)

(both chuckle)

Am I womanly enough for Pateray now?

- Mm-hmm.

- Good. Then I will go tonight and leave.

- Why leave?

- Because I will have his seed inside me.

(Tracima laughs)

Why do you laugh?

- There is much you need to learn about men and women.

Only once with Pateray may not give you a child.

- But I desire it no more than once.

- Nepakin must never know I'm taking you to Pateray.

- Worry not, friend.

{(men reveling)

- I will remain here.

Be cautious.

And be comfortable.

(men reveling nearby)

- You are from the temple?

- [Hundra] Yes.

- If you are not in pain or in need of me,

it's late, I was preparing for bed.

- I am Hundra.

(amorous music)

- So brave of you too.

- Tracima taught me.

- You are a woman.

(amorous music)

{(men reveling)

{men laughing loudly)

(footsteps approaching)

{(men reveling)

- Hey! (chuckles) What do we have here?

(playfully growls) Oh! Mm, hmm...

Mm, this is temple cloth.

Temple flesh!

(men jeering)

Now we'll find what brings our people here so often.

(man moaning)

{men grumbling)

- [Man] You'll do well to leave her to the temple

and the chieftains.

- Nah, she don't say nothing.

Will you, woman? (laughs)

(assaulter moaning)

(assaulter grunting) (men jeering)

(dramatic music)

- And will you do nothing either, woman?

(assaulter moaning)

Or have you tasted so filth so long

you have grown to like it?

You have a choice.

You can either lie with them or stand with me.

(assaulter moaning)

(assaulter groaning)

(dramatic music)

(Hundra yells)

(assaulter groans)

{man groans)

(Hundra grunts) (man groaning)

Tracima?

{man groans)

(Hundra and Tracima laughing)

(man groaning)

(Hundra and Tracima laughing)

(men groaning) (women laughing)

- They're dead, and I caused it!

- Did you enjoy it?

- Oh, yes. Oh, yes, I did!

(both laughing)

Hey, what about Pateray?

I don't know.

I may not be with child,

but I feel I must return to him again.

- Mm-hmm.

- And again, and again,

and again, and again, (Tracima laughing)

And then again and again!

(both laughing)

(peaceful music) (people laughing)

- Does anything trouble you?

- No.

No, something pleases me, greatly.

- What?

(Hundra sighs)

- I have a child inside of me.

(Tracima gasps) (Hundra giggles)

- Then you will leave now?

- (sighs) When I am with Pateray, we are as one,

and men are not my opponent.

- [Tracima] You will remain then?

- But to be forever with a man is not my destiny.

Maybe yours has changed its course.

You should stay.

- I will stay.

(Tracima chuckles)

Until I decide to go.

(sighs) Why can't me be as logical

and straightforward as us?

- [Chyrsula] As the months passed

and the baby inside Hundra's body grew,

so did confusion about where her path was leading.

Tracima hid her condition

until finally, Hundra had to face the ultimate female task

and her own destiny as well.

(Hundra grunting)

(Hundra breathing heavily)

(Hundra grunting)

(all breathing heavily)

(Hundra panting)

- Try again.

(Hundra grunting)

(Tracima grunting)

- Where have you been?

- Hers is not the only baby being born today.

But this one is crosswise in the stomach.

It will not turn.

(Hundra groaning)

- Scream, woman! Scream!

Don't be afraid.

It's good for you to scream.

All women scream.

Scream! (Hundra grunting)

There. See, we'll turn it.

Heave!

And heave!

Again! (Hundra groaning)

(Hundra screaming)

(Hundra sighing)

(baby crying)

- Bring me my daughter.

(baby crying)

Ooh.

- The next will be a son.

- We will leave this city as soon as I can travel.

We must go away.

- Hundra, you needed me only this night as healer.

The people of this city need me always.

I cannot leave here.

It is my destiny.

We will stay here together.

Sleep now.

(dramatic music)

- [Chrysula] You are the ember of our fire of freedom

and the destiny of that freedom

has become your destiny alone.

You, Hundra, are our entire nation,

all is that is left to fan our belief into flame again.

(Hundra baby-talking)

(Hundra laughs)

- Are you strong today?

- Yes.

- And the baby?

- Also. (baby-talking)

- Nepakin plans a night with the chieftains tonight,

to include yourself.

- Then we will leave now.

Watch my child while I make the preparations.

(baby cooing)

(Beast panting)

(goats bleating)

- You have no trouble from me.

Must you leave so quickly?

- I have no choice.

There's a celebration in the temple tonight,

and if I go there among the noise of their perversion,

I'll only leave in the silence of their death.

- I knew you your destiny would claim you and the child,

but I had hoped we would have more time together.

- We will always be together.

Our daughter has seen to that.

- Can I help you in any way?

- Yes.

Remain understanding

for a man.

(Pateray chuckles)

And always be true to your own destiny.

- I see you answer the call of your blood once more.

- Where is my child?

- Safe enough!

If you do as I say.

- I will not bow to your bull or your men.

- Yes, both, tonight.

Else your precious child will fill

the bellies of the vultures the next moment you refuse.

(Hundra's breath trembles)

(dramatic music)

- Where is my child?

- With my own and guarded.

- Tracima!

- Please do as they say.

- You still do not stand on your own.

And you never will, so long as you stand in fear.

Remain safe,

woman.

(tense music)

{men grumbling)

- Bow to your superiors.

Bow down!

Bow!

Bow!

(men cheering)

(men laughing)

(men jeering)

- Was it necessary to remove her tongue

to silence her, Nepakin?

- It remains for your pleasure, Gordoza,

but remains quiet.

You may discover after she faces the bull,

as you all may discover.

(men chattering)

Bow to the bull!

(suspenseful music) (baby crying)

- Nepakin wants the children of the temple.

(guard groans)

(Tracima grunts)

(Rothrar clapping)

- I see, the teacher became the pupil.

- I want the children.

- I should have kept a closer eye on you, my docile lamb.

Oh well, it is too late for such a hindsight,

but not too late to remedy the oversight.

(both grunting)

(Rothrar groans)

(Rothrar shouts)

- Mommy! Mommy!

- Go to Pateray, tell him Hundra has trouble at the temple.

And you are to stay there. Hurry!

(baby crying)

(men cheering)

(tense music)

- She's mine!

(Gordoza shouts)

- Kneel.

Kneel!

(men cheering)

- One of the chieftains is ill.

The healer is needed.

(Hundra breathing heavily)

Hundra!

{men murmuring)

(Hundra grunts) (men shouting)

(Hundra roaring)

(Hundra grunts) (man groans)

- [Pateray] Hundra!

(sword whooshing) (dramatic music)

(Gordoza roaring) (flail whooshing)

(dramatic choir music)

(blood squelching)

{ominous music)

(Beast whines)

(Pateray groans)

{men grunting)

(dramatic choir music)

(blood squelching)

(weapons clash)

(blade rips)

(both grunting)

(Beast whines)

(Beast barks)

(Beast growling)

(Nepakin groaning)

(baby crying)

(sword whooshing) (dramatic choir music)

(Nepakin grunts) (women screaming in distance)

- [Woman] Open it up!

{(women screaming) (banging on door)

Open the door!

- Out of my way!

(women gasping)

- Let's all get him! - No! No!

Don't touch me! (screaming)

(dramatic choir music)

(man yells)

No! Get off!

Get off of me! No!

No! No!

Get off me!

(Nepakin screaming) (women grunting)

(blade thuds) (women clamoring)

(villagers chattering) (rooster crows)

- It will heal well? - Yes.

- Good, then we will both share scars.

They will respect one another.

- You will return someday?

- Perhaps. But right now, someone is waiting for us.

Beast?

Beast?

(hopeful music)

- [Chrysula] Hundra's life and destiny were

to fight for emancipation.

Through the ages, there have been other brave ones

who follow in her footsteps.

So, let all men be aware,

the seed of Hundra is in all women.
