All language subtitles for Kingdom of Heave

She's denied the cross
for her suicide,

and then buried
at the center of a crossroads.

Show me the logic!

- Father?
- What?

The devil is a practical man.

If she were a witch,

she's a poor return
on his investments.

- What do you know of logic?
- Well, I have ears, Father,

although one is notched,

because I love justice.
- You love thieving!

Shut up. You dig.

and so the world, ♪

Crusaders.

Clear the road, if you will.

Squire!

This is for the burial from my lord.

And a mass

for her soul.

Wait!

- Have you forgotten?
- She was your brother's wife.

She was a suicide.
Cut off her head!

And return the ax!

You know this place, my lord?

Know it?

I know all of it.

Your brother?
You have spoken to him?

On what matter, my lord?
He is still arrested.

Your brother is as responsible
for his wife's sin as I am.

Opinions differ, my lord.

The burial was...?

Yes.

- Yet you did not mutilate the person?
- No.

Good.

A law can go too far.

It can go too far.
I ask myself:

would Jesus do it thusly?

There is so much done in Christendom
of which Christ would be incapable.

Release your brother.
I cannot do without him.

But my brother,
my lord Bishop,

is possessed by the devil
and must be... examined.

Your brother is as mad as you are.
He grieves!

Without your brother, I cannot finish
my church. Let him out!

And give him this.

And tell him that he is
at the very center of my prayers.

The Bishop needs you.

- Release him.
- On your feet.

This is not heaven.
It's the world.

And there's troubles in it.

Do yourself no injury.
Other men are always good for that.

- And what of Jerusalem?
- Jerusalem?

In peril, my lord. As always.

We have stood there against
the Saracens for over 100 years.

The Saracens, as you call them,

have now unified in Egypt,
Syria and all Arabia.

- The Saracens have someone new.
- Saladin, their king.

Salah-al Din!

Gibberish!

Very fine.

And yet you do not drink.

A knight should be a knight.
A monk, a monk.

- Brother. - Not both at once.
That's what I say. Now...

I may be old-fashioned,
but, as for the cup,

I have an artificer,
a blacksmith. Or did have.

Which son of the blacksmith of my time
is the blacksmith now?

Balian.

The eldest.

His child died.

His wife fell into a melancholy.
She would not listen to reason.

She killed herself.

It occurs.

But what's that to you?

A private matter.

It's been six and twenty years
since my brother took the cross

and now he returns an actual baron
of the Kingdom of Jerusalem.

How is that for the lot
of a younger brother?

With no heir... it comes to me.
And thus to you.

Then I thank the stars for my uncle.

Go on.

Her grave was here.

Or was it there?

I'm afraid I can't tell you
the exact location.

I wasn't present at the burial.

Call me a liar.

You have reason.

You never fight back.

You always turn the other cheek.

Now, I think that
you conceive yourself without sin.

That is a sin!

We shall work.

Cullen, I told you to stop that! Now!

That is the man!
That is the man!

You're an armourer, yes?

An artificer, according to your lord
and this priest.

You have my sympathy
and my blessing.

Your dead wife and stillborn child
are today the subject of my prayers.

We need all these horses shod.
We need food, and we'll pay.

Says yes.

He has made great engines for sieges.

He has made war machines
that cast the largest stones.

He also works finely in silver.

He will be one of the few on your
journey worth more alive than dead.

Shut up.

Have you been at war?

On horse.

- And as an enginer. - Against whom
and for whom did you fight?

For one lord against another.
On a point which cannot be remembered.

There's better game now.

One God against another!

- The pay is proportionate!
- Yeah, I've been telling him that!

Do you still advise
what you advised upon the road?

I do, my lord.

I know that this man, Balian,
mourns his wife.

What does that say?

What man is a man
who does not make the world better?

Leave me with this man.

God has made us men.
We must suffer all.

I, also, have lost.

Some say Jerusalem is the very center
of the world for asking forgiveness.

For myself

I call it here, now.

I knew your namesake.

I... knew your mother.

To be courteous, I should say
that it was against her objections.

That I was the lord's brother
and she had no choice. But...

I did not force her.

I have forgiveness to ask of you.

I am Godfrey,
the baron of Ibelin.

I have 100 men at arms in Jerusalem.

If you will come with me,
you will have a living and

you will have my thanks.
There it is.

Whoever you are, my lord,

my place is here.
- What made it your place is now dead.

You will never see me again.

If you want anything of me,
take it now.

I want nothing.

I am sorry for your troubles.

God protect you.

Jerusalem is easy to find.

You come
to where the men speak Italian

and continue
until they speak something else.

We go by Messina.

Good-bye.

The village does not want you.

When the old lord is dead,
they will drive you out.

When the Bishop is dead,
it is certain!

And you take my property.

- The Church.
- You.

They would have taken you
to Jerusalem,

away from

all this.

I arranged it.

I swear to you, you will have no peace
so long as you stay here.

No man ever needed
a new world more.

Imagine your sin and pain erased.

All.

If you take the crusade,

you may relieve
your wife's position in hell.

I put it delicately.

She was a suicide.
She is in hell.

Though, what she does there
without a head...

Wait here.

Have you come to kill me?

Even these days, it is not easy.

Well?

I have done

murder.

Haven't we all?

Is it true that in Jerusalem,
I can erase my sins

and those of my wife?
Is it true?

We can find out together.

Show me your hand.

Hey!

Pick it up!
Let's see what you're made of!

His hand is hurt, my lord.

I once fought two days
with an arrow through my testicle.

Never use a low guard.

You fight well!

Let's work on your skills.

You take a high guard, like this.

The Italians call it
La Posta di Falcone,

the guard of the hawk.
You strike from high.

Like this.

Do it.

Sword straighter.

Come on. Leg back.
Bend your knees. Sword straighter!

Defend yourself.

The blade isn't
the only part of a sword.

Attack.

I have your leave?

Pay attention.

Eins, zwei, drei,

vier, fünf!

What's this?

- Uncle.
- Nephew.

You have with you a man, Balian,
who killed a priest, his brother.

I'm charged by both my father
and the lord Bishop to bring him back.

What he says is true.

They have the right to take me.

I say he's innocent of the charge.

If you say he's guilty,
then we'll fight

and God will decide
the truth of it.

My German friend
is a close student of the law.

Just give him to me.
I'll fight you for something else.

Uncle, he's a murderer.

So am I.

Whoever dies here today,
you will certainly be among them.

You're my uncle.

I must give you the road.

Heinrich!

Heinrich!

To the flanks!

Come on!

Thank my brother for his love!

I am the son of Roger de...

Take your helmet off
while addressing me.

I am the son of Roger de Cormier.

I am accorded
the privilege of... ransom.

This is true.

Well, you broke the arrow.

If the ribs are broken,

the marrow...
may enter the blood.

In which case,
you'll take a fever and die.

Or a cyst will form

and you'll live.

You're in the hands of God.

Get me some more wine.

It was not
that they had no right to take you.

It was the way they asked.

They had the right to take me.

And so do I.

To kill an infidel,

the Pope has said, is not murder.

It is the path to heaven.

To kill an infidel, the Pope has said,
is not murder.

It is the path to heaven.

Godfrey.

To kill an infidel, the Pope has said,
is not murder.

It is the path to heaven.

- Where do you go?
- To Jerusalem, brother.

- By which road?
- Someone knows.

God knows.

When shall we stop this madness?

It will soon be beyond my concern.

Who is this?

My son.

Would I had fought you when you were
still capable of making bastards!

I knew your mother
when she was making hers.

Fortunately, you're too old
to be one of mine.

All will be settled.

Do you know
what lies in the Holy Land?

A new world.

A man who in France
had not a house

is in the Holy Land
the master of a city.

He who was the master of a city
begs in the gutter.

There, at the end of the world,
you are not what you were born, but...

what you have
within yourself to be.

I hope to find forgiveness.

That's all I know.

Whatever your position,
you are of my house,

and that means you will serve
the King of Jerusalem.

What could a king ask
of a man like me?

A better world
than has ever been seen.

A kingdom of conscience.

A kingdom of heaven.

There is peace
between Christian and Muslim.

We live together.

Or, between Salah-al Din and the King,
we try.

Did you think that lay
at the end of crusade?

It does.

My son, you are all that survives me.
Do not disappoint me.

When we took the Holy Land,
we took the Saracen trading ports.

So Italian ships
carry silks and spices

and pilgrims, if they have money.

And Italy becomes rich,

as the Savior intended.

- Who are those men?
- Muslims.

Saracens.

- And they are allowed their prayers?
- If they pay the tax.

Praise be to God.
It is proper to praise Him.

It sounds like our prayers.

It's good!

When the King is dead,

Jerusalem will be no place
for friends of Muslims

or traitors to Christendom

like your father.

I am Guy de Lusignan.

Remember that name.

And me.

Keep it.

My lord!

How will you ride if you have
no stick to beat the horse?

He will be king
in Jerusalem one day.

Balian!

Hurry.

I can go no further.

Get on your knees.

Be without fear
in the face of your enemies.

Be brave and upright
that God may love thee.

Speak the truth always,
even if it leads to your death.

Safeguard the helpless
and do no wrong.

That is your oath.

And that's so you remember it.

Arise a knight
and baron of Ibelin.

Defend the King.

If the King is no more,
protect the people.

It is time now, my lord,
to confess to Holy God, not your son.

Are you sorry for all your sins?

For all but one.

Per istam sanctam unctionem
et suam piissimam misericordiam,

adiuvet te Dominus
gratia Spiritus Sancti...

You sail now for Jerusalem,
as your father wished.

I'll follow within the week.

Now, the voyage is perilous.

If God has purpose for you there,
He'll keep you safe in His hands.

If not,

God bless you.

Whoa... Whoa... Whoa...

He says that is his horse!

Why would it be his horse?

Because it is on his land!

I took this horse from the sea!

He says, "You are a great liar!"

And he will fight you
because you are a liar.

I have no desire to fight!

Then you must give him the horse!

No!

Fight me fairly!

Why? Why should he?
He is a knight!

And I am the baron of Ibelin!

He says the baron of Ibelin is old.

He knew him at Damascus.

I am the new one.

Stop!

That's enough!

Stop!

Ibelin, that's enough!

Ibelin! No!

You've taken it very well
that I have killed your master.

It was the end of his time.

All is as God wills it.

Now finish this.

Take me to Jerusalem.

A very good horse.

Take the horse.

And be about your business.

This is your prize of battle.

I am your prisoner, your slave,
should you wish it.

I have been a slave
or very near to one.

I will never keep one
nor suffer any to be kept.

Go.

The man you killed

was a very great cavalier
among the Muslims.

- His name was Muhammad al Fais.
- I will pray for him.

Your quality will be known
among your enemies,

before ever you meet them,
my friend.

Old man,

where is it
that Christ was crucified?

(God,)

(what is it you want of me?)

(How can you be in hell,
when you're in my heart?)

You must have known him.

- What?
- Since you carry Godfrey's sword

you must have known him.

I did.

A man my size.

Yes.

And green eyes.

Blue.

Come with us,

my lord.

No. No.

Give me the towel.

Give me the towel.

Give me the towel.

A man who in France
had not a house

is in the Holy Land
the master of a city.

Stop!

You're hurting him.

Whoa... Whoa...

Where's your master?

I have none.

Give me some water.

Thank you for the drink.

If you happen to see Balian,
the son of Godfrey,

tell him that Sibylla called.

So how find you Jerusalem?

God does not speak to me,

not even on the hill

where Christ died.
I am outside God's grace.

I have not heard that.

At any rate,

it seems

I have lost my religion.

I put no stock in religion.

By the word "religion",
I've seen the lunacy of fanatics

of every denomination
be called the will of God.

I've seen too much religion
in the eyes of too many murderers.

Holiness

is in right action

and courage on behalf of those
who cannot defend themselves.

And goodness...

What God desires

is here

and here.

By what you decide to do every day,
you will be a good man

or not.

Come.

The King has made a peace
with Salah-al Din these past 6 years.

He holds Jerusalem as a place
for prayer for all faiths,

as the Muslims
did before we came.

These men are Templars.
They killed Arabs.

So they are dying for what the Pope
would command them to do.

Yes.

But not Christ, I think.

Nor this king.

- Who says I raid?
- That witness.

All of Jerusalem,

holy God,

and me!

That witness, if you call him that,
is a Saracen. He lies.

There will come a day,
Reynald de Chatillon,

when you are not protected
by your title!

When will that be?

Alert me, Tiberias, when men are equal
and the Kingdom of Heaven has arrived.

Those Templars have been hung
for a raid that I know you commanded!

Prove it!

I will wait at Kerak until you do.

The King will take
your castle of Kerak, Reynald.

Try to take it, Tiberias.

I'll be there!

You're letting him go?

Why are you letting him go?

I cannot protect your caravans

unless you agree to be escorted
by our soldiers!

I trade to make money, not to offend
God by associating with Christians!

But you will take Christian gold.

Gold is gold.

Of course.

My lord Tiberias.

My lord.

It's true.

You're your father's son.

He was my friend.

I am yours.

Godfrey dead...

It could have come at a better time.
Come!

It was shouted in the streets
that you killed a great lord of Syria.

Salah-al Din himself sent word

that your fight
did not breach the peace,

that you had cause.
What know you of Salah-al Din?

That he is king of the Saracens
and that he surrounds this kingdom.

He has 200,000 men
in Damascus alone.

He could win a war
if he goes to war,

and he's daily given cause for war
by fanatics newly from Europe,

by Templar bastards
like Reynald de Chatillon.

Here from this room I keep the peace,
so far as it can be kept.

But Salah-al Din and the King,
between them,

would make a better world.

If it lives only for a while,
Tiberias, it still has lived.

What did your father tell you
of your... obligations?

That I was to be a good knight.

I pray
the world and Jerusalem

can accommodate
such a rarity

as a perfect knight.

Have you dined?

The Princess Sibylla of Jerusalem
and her husband, Guy de Lusignan!

- So, how many knights
did you find in France? - Fifty.

They've sworn allegiance
to the King?

Of course, Tiberias.

Obviously.

You sit at my table!

Is it not the King's table?

Is it? I have not seen a king at it
for some years.

I cannot eat.
I... am finicky about company.

In France,
this could not inherit.

But here there are no civilized rules.
I have business in the East.

My wife does not lament
at my absences.

That is
either the best of wives

or the very, very worst.

- Do you go to meet Reynald?
- No, my lord. He is in disfavor!

I am a member of this court!

Why should I make league
with that... troublemaker?

To the very best of wives!

God bless Jerusalem.

- The King will see him now.
- The King would see Godfrey's son.

I'll take him.

This morning I spoke
without knowing who you were.

I knew who you were.

It's unmistakable.

I loved your father.

And I shall love you.

Do you fear being with me?

No.

And yes.

A woman in my place
has two faces:

one for the world
and one which she wears in private.

With you, I'll be only Sibylla.

Tiberias thinks me unpredictable.

I am... unpredictable.

No. There.

Come forward.

I am glad to meet Godfrey's son.

He was one of my greatest teachers.

He was there when, playing
with the other boys, my arm was cut

and it was he,
not my father's physicians,

who noticed that I felt no pain.

He wept when he gave my father
the news

that I am a leper.

The Saracens say

that this disease is God's vengeance
against the vanity of our kingdom.

As wretched as I am

these Arabs believe
that the chastisement

that awaits me in hell
is far more severe and lasting.

If that's true,
I call it unfair.

Come, sit.

- Do you play?
- No.

The whole world is in chess.

Any move can be
the death of you.

Do anything
except remain where you started

and you can't be sure of your end.

Were you sure of your end once?

- I was.
- What was it?

To be buried 100 yards
from where I was born.

And now?

Now I sit in Jerusalem
and look upon a king.

When I was 16,
I won a great victory.

I felt in that moment
I would live to be 100.

Now I know I shall not see 30.

None of us know our end, really.

Or what hand will guide us there.

A king may move a man.

A father may claim a son.

That man can also move himself.

And only then does that man
truly begin his own game.

Remember that howsoever
you are played or by whom,

your soul
is in your keeping alone.

Even though those who presume
to play you be kings or men of power,

when you stand before God,
you cannot say:

"But I was told
by others to do thus"

or that "virtue was not convenient
at the time." This will not suffice.

Remember that.

I will.

You know what this is?

- The fortification.
- What do you think of it?

You disapprove.
Well, how would you improve it?

A cross,

or better, a star,

like this.

That way, no part of the fortress
may be approached

without being exposed
to fire from another part.

Yes, I like this. Your walls
are more difficult to address!

Very good.

You will go
to your father's house at Ibelin,

your house now.

And then from there,
you will protect the pilgrim road.

Safeguard in particular
the Jews and the Muslims.

All are welcome in Jerusalem.

Not only because it's expedient,
but because it is right.

Protect the helpless.
And then maybe one day,

when I am helpless,
you will come and protect me.

There, my lord.

Ibelin.

Quod sumus

hoc eritis.

Such as we are...
you will be.

Your father was important.

His lands were not.

It will suit me.

My lord, you have 1,000 acres,
100 families.

You have Christians,
Jews, Muslims.

You have 50 pairs of oxen.

This is a poor and dusty place.

What we do not have...
is water.

All right.

Stone the walls.

I'm on my way to Cana,

where Jesus changed water to wine.

But a better trick
would be to change you to a nobleman.

That should be easy.

In France, a few yards of silk
can make a nobleman.

I expect your hospitality.

It is given.

But this isn't adultery.
It's washing.

But if it were adultery,

which it isn't,

the Commandments
are not for people like us.

They are for the others.

Did they give you something to eat?

I said to wait
until the master returned.

My cook will prepare something
while you wash.

- What? - It seems years
since I've seen a woman eat.

Truly?

I was watching you today.

You've been given a patch of dirt,
and it seems

you will build
a new Jerusalem here.

It is my land.

Who would I be
if I did not try to make it better?

They try to be one:

one heart, one morality.

Their prophet says, "Submit."

Jesus says,

"Decide."

Did you decide on Guy?

Guy was chosen by my mother.

My first husband died
before our son was born.

I was only 15.

I've met your son.

I could stay here forever.

This house is yours.

Why do you think I'm here?

I know that Ibelin
is not on the way to Cana.

What else do you know, my lord?

I know that you are a princess.

And I am no lord.

You're a knight.

Neither earned... nor proved.

I'm not here with you
because I'm... bored

or wicked.

I'm here because

in the East,
between one person and another,

there is only light.

Hold!

- This caravan is armed, Reynald.
- Good! No sport otherwise!

They've seen us.

Go after them.
A rider's getting away.

It's a broad desert.
Nothing'll come of it. Nothing.

I prefer not to be hanged
before my wife is queen.

Don't worry.

"Who but Reynald?" they'll say.

It's always me.

They'll believe it in Jerusalem,
I assure you.

You were at Nazareth, praying.

You're a dangerous man, Reynald.

If the war's to be now or later,
I would have it now.

- How long can the leper last?
- God wills it!

God wills it!

- Jerusalem!
- Charge!

It's you!

This is from France.

I've never been there.

This is from my brother.

This is to remind us of death.

And this

I bought the day I saw you.

You lie.

Guy de Lusignan

and Reynald de Chatillon,
with the Templars,

have attacked a Saracen caravan.
- Liar!

Silence!

It was no caravan.

It was an army headed for Bethlehem
to desecrate the birthplace of Our Lord!

Reynald, with the Templars, have
broken the King's pledge of peace!

Salah-al Din will come
into this kingdom...

Tiberias knows more than a Christian
should about Salah-al Din's intentions.

That I would rather live with men

than kill them

is certainly why you are alive.

That sort of Christianity
has its uses, I suppose.

We must not go to war
with Salah-al Din!

We do not want it!

- And we may not win it!
- Blasphemy! - Blasphemy! - Blasphemy!

An army of Jesus Christ
which bears His holy cross

cannot be beaten.

Does the count of Tiberias
suggest that it could be?

There must be war.

- God wills it!
- God wills it!

God wills it!

Silence!

Salah-al Din has crossed the Jordan
with 200,000 men.

He will make first for Kerak
and Reynald de Chatillon. My lord...

We must meet him
before he reaches Kerak.

I will lead the army.

My lord, if you travel,

you'll die.

Send word to Balian
to protect the villagers.

Assemble the army!

What becomes of us?

The world will decide.

The world always decides.

My lord!

The King is marching on Kerak!

Saracen cavalry!

They're coming to close Reynald in!

These people are not safe
outside the walls!

Salah-al Din will certainly come
behind them!

Go into the fortress now.

Visitors!

My lord Balian!

My lord Balian!

My lord Reynald prays
you bring your force into Kerak!

Thank you, but no.
If we do, these people will die.

We'll hold the Saracen cavalry
until the King arrives.

So be it.

We cannot attack that
and live.

My lady.

What do you look at?

A knight...

His men...

Are you with me?

Forward!

Divide!

Your quality will be known
among your enemies

before ever you meet them,
my friend.

- You were not that man's servant.
- No.

He was my servant.

- And what becomes of us?
- As you deserve.

You reap what you sow.

You have heard of this, no?

Get up.

You may go into Kerak.

But you will die there.

My master is here.

Tell my lord Salah-al Din
that Jerusalem has come.

Salah-al Din...

I pray you'll pull back your cavalry
and leave this matter to me.

I pray
you'll retire unharmed to Damascus.

Reynald of Chatillon
will be punished.

I swear it.

Withdraw or we will all die here.

Do we have terms?

We have terms.

I will... send you my physicians.

I am Reynald of Chatillon!

On your knees.

Lower.

I...

am Jerusalem.

And you, Reynald,

will give me the kiss of peace.

Guard!

- What are you looking at?
- A dead man.

Reynald of Chatillon,

you are arrested
and condemned.

If you continue like this,

I shall have to find
a use for you.

If God can spare you, that is.

God does not know me.

Yes, but I do.

I need you in Jerusalem.

Why did we retire?

Why?

God did not favor him.

And God alone determines
the results of battles.

The results of battles
are determined by God,

but also by preparation,

numbers,

the absence of disease
and the availability of water.

One cannot maintain a siege
with the enemy behind.

How many battles did God win
for the Muslims before I came?

That is

before God determined
that I should come.

Few enough.

That's because we were sinful.

It is because you were unprepared.

If you think that way,
you shall not be king for long.

When I am not king,
I quake for Islam.

Thank you for your visit.

Thank you for your visit.

You promised.

You promised to return Jerusalem.

Don't forget.

If I do not deliver war,
I have no peace.

The King of Jerusalem will die soon.

When he is dead, the boy will become
king of a kingdom he cannot control.

The Christians
will make the war you need.

Move on!

Forward!

I am Reynald de Chatillon!

I am Reynald de Chatillon!

Reynald de Chatillon!

I... am

Reynald de Chatillon!

The things that we have left undone
plague us as death comes.

That is why, to the dying

there is no comfort but the Lord.
- Spare me your sermon.

Go and prepare your people
for the coronation of my nephew.

Your confession, my lord.

I shall confess to God
when I see Him.

Not to you.

Now leave me.

You sometimes dream
you are my wife.

Let's pretend you are.

I must go...

We can't meet in the city.

Then we will leave it.

And live how? Live where?

Balian,

my brother's dying.

My son will be king
and I his regent.

I must rule for him.

And not just in Jerusalem,
but Acre, Ascalon, Beirut.

And Guy?

Always surround your knights
with foot soldiers.

These rooms are not yours.

One day I will be the husband
I was commissioned to be.

And perhaps not, my dear.

Your lover has 100 knights
and the love of the King;

I the largest force
in the kingdom

and the support of the Templars.

I can do
without the King's affection.

But as for your love...

Then we must come
to an understanding.

You need my knights,
or his rule will be bloody and brief.

So, my friend,

the time has come
to conclude my affairs.

If I leave the army with Guy,

he will take power through my sister
and make war on the Muslims.

We have decided that you shall take
command of the army of Jerusalem.

Will you defend my nephew
when he's king?

Whatever you ask

I will serve.
- No, hear it all before you answer.

Would you marry my sister Sibylla
were she free of Guy de Lusignan?

And Guy?

He will be executed

along with his knights
who do not swear your allegiance.

- I cannot be the cause of that.
- Whatever you ask

I will serve.

A king may move a man, you said,

but the soul belongs to the man.

Yes, I did.

You have my love...
and my answer.

So be it.

Why do you protect Guy?

He's a man who insults you,

who hates you,

who would kill you himself
if he had the chance.

But for the salvation of this kingdom,
would it be so hard

to marry Sibylla?

- Jerusalem has no need
of a perfect knight. - No.

It is a kingdom of conscience

or nothing.

Sibylla!

Who are you to refuse a king?

I will have power
without Guy or with him.

Guy isn't dead at your say so
or my brother's,

but at mine.

Do you have any idea of Jerusalem
except that it is yours?

You will never hold it in peace
as your brother did.

It will be war.

My grandfather
took Jerusalem in blood.

I'll keep it the same way,
or any way I can.

I am what I am.

I offer you that

and the world.

You say no.

Do you think I'm like Guy?

That I would sell my soul?

There'll be a day

when you will wish
you had done a little evil

to do a greater good.

Reynald.

My lord.

Do you really think
that the King

wants you head of the army
once he's gone?

Think your wife does?

- I have a problem.
- Ah, yes. Balian.

I saw him at Kerak.

Celebrated.

You must beware a popular man.

Kill him.

- What's that?
- England.

- The king?
- Richard. And his father was Henry.

Good.

- And that?
- France. Will I ever see France?

Maybe one day.
But you must be king here.

How many islands
can you see here?

- One, two, three...
- The King will see you.

No, I can't.

I can't bear to look at him.
He knows this.

It doesn't mean I don't love him.

Go, madam.

Hello.

Hello.

I was dreaming.

I was back in that summer

when I defeated Salah-al Din.

Do you remember it?

I was only 16.

- You were a beautiful boy.
- Yes.

You've always been beautiful,

in every way.

My beautiful sister...

I've missed you.

So beautiful...

I'm sorry
if I've caused you any pain.

Remember me as I was.

I will.

Sibylla!

If my son has your knights,

you have your wife.

♪ Benedicimus Domine... ♪

Behold your rightful King and heir

of the Kingdom of Jerusalem!

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Long live the King in prosperity!

Long live the King!
Long live the King!

Long live the King!

One may stare into the light
until one becomes the light.

I've done it many times.

There's your religion!

One spark.

A creosote bush.

There's your Moses!

I did not hear it speak.

It does not mean
that there is no God.

Do you love her?

Yes.

Your heart will mend.
Your duty is to the people of the city.

I go to pray.

For what?

For the strength
to endure what is to come.

And what is to come?

The reckoning is to come
for what was done 100 years before.

The Muslims will never forget.

Nor should they.

My lady,
your letter to Salah-al Din...

Peace to be sustained,
borders respected,

trade allowed to continue.
Is this wise to show your intentions?

Better, surely, to let him wonder.

We keep my brother's peace.

Sign.

Take the seal.

Be careful.

Put it back, my darling.

Hey!

There is a rumor.

We must condemn it immediately.

Call it treason.

- And kill those who whisper it.
- The rumor will die

if we show the boy as active.

How long before he wears a mask?

Will you have one made for him?

How did my boy deserve it?

Jerusalem is dead, Tiberias.

No kingdom
is worth my son alive in hell.

I will go to hell instead.

- Do you remember the story of Louan?
- No.

- No? Do you remember why?
- No.

And he was so lonely that

he called all the gods.
- Why?

Because he was desperate.
As a proof of love.

The boy is in heaven?

Yes.

His mother has more backbone

She's in the crypt
and will not come out.

- Have the Templars killed Balian?
- Yes.

Reynald,

give me a war.

That is what I do.

Behold your rightful Queen and heir

to the throne
of the Kingdom of Jerusalem.

Yes! Yes! Yes!

I, Sibylla, by the grace
of the Holy Spirit,

choose as King
Guy de Lusignan,

the man who has been my husband.

With the help of God,
he will rule his people well.

Long live the King in prosperity!

Long live the King!
Long live the King!

Long live the King!

I am what I am.

Someone has to be.

Salah-al Din's sister.

I know.

I know.

Speak.

The Sultan demands
the return of his sister's body,

the heads of those responsible,
and the surrender of Jerusalem.

Does he?

What answer
do you return to Salah-al Din?

This.

Take the head to Damascus.

I am Jerusalem.

Assemble the army! Yeah!

Now this assembly of barons
and all Jerusalem is complete.

There are those among you
who may disagree

with our succession,
but it is war.

Aye!

And I am...

the King.

We march at once.
What say this council?

Aye!

No.

If you must have war,

this army cannot move away
from water.

You have a chance
to hold the city.

But if you move out
against Salah-al Din,

this army will be destroyed,
and the city left defenseless.

When I wish a blacksmith
to advise me in war, I will tell him.

Salah-al Din wants you to come out.

He is waiting for you
to make that mistake.

He knows his man.

- We should meet the enemies of God!
- Aye!

And so we shall!

Then you do so

without my knights.
- Then I will have the glory, Tiberias.

You had yours
years and years ago.

It's time for mine.

Forward!

Forward!

Forward!

Forward!

Tiberias.

When Salah-al Din has finished
with Guy, he will come.

We must look to the defenses.

The boy is dead.

- Guy?
- No.

The boy was leperous like his uncle.

She gave him peace.

She let him go.

And Jerusalem along with him.

You go with the army?

My order is with the army.

You go to certain death.

All death is certain.

I shall tell your father
what I've seen you become.

♪ ...cogner ici. ♪

♪ Ma fille, c'est le charpentier
qui raccomode. ♪

When Salah-al Din comes,

we're not defensible.

Save the people
from what I have done.

I will.

God wills it.

Can you sense it?

There has been no messenger.

I drink water for what it is.

I did not give the cup to you.

No, my lord.

A king does not kill a king.

Were you not close enough
to a great king

to learn by his example?

I've given Jerusalem my whole life,

everything.

First I thought we...

were fighting for God.

Then I realized we were fighting
for wealth and... land.

I was ashamed.

Tiberias.

There is no more Jerusalem.

I shall go to Cyprus.
Will you come with me?

No.

You are your father's son.

Salah-al Din must move his army
from water to water.

That gives you four days!
Maybe five!

God be with you.

He's no longer with me.

Mark four hundred.

Four hundred!

Four hundred!

They're here.

It is only one man.

No. They're here.

This is the only section of the wall
that they can attack

once they begin
to bombard the walls.

They will stop only to avoid
hitting their own siege towers

as they come in.

We take the bombardment.

When they cease firing, we fire.

We must leave the city!

How exactly, my lord Bishop?

The fastest horses
from a lesser gate.

And the people?

It is unfortunate about the people,
but it is God's will!

Silence!

Silence!

Silence!

It has fallen to us
to defend Jerusalem.

And we have made our preparations
as well as they can be made.

None of us
took this city from Muslims.

No Muslim of the great army
now coming against us

was born
when this city was lost.

We fight
over an offense we did not give,

against those who were not alive
to be offended.

What is Jerusalem?

Your holy places lie over the Jewish
temple that the Romans pulled down.

The Muslim places of worship
lie over yours.

Which is more holy?

The wall?

The mosque?

The sepulcher?

Who has claim?

No one has claim.

All have claim!

- That is blasphemy!
- Be quiet!

We defend this city

not to protect these stones, but
the people living within these walls.

My lord!

My lord! My lord!

How are we to defend Jerusalem
without knights?

We have no knights!

Truly?

- What is your condition?
- I am servant to the Patriarch.

- That is... one of my servants.
- Is he?

You were born a servant?

Kneel.

Every man at arms

or capable of bearing them,

kneel!

On your knees!

Be without fear
in the face of your enemies.

Be brave and upright,
that God may love thee.

Speak the truth,
even if it leads to your death.

Safeguard the helpless.

That is your oath.

And that is so you remember it.

Rise a knight!

Rise a knight!

Master Gravedigger.

- It is you?
- Not what I was.

Nor are you.

Rise a knight.

Who do you think you are?

Will you alter the world?

Does making a man a knight
make him a better fighter?

Yes.

Almaric,

if you survive,

Ibelin is yours.

You are master of Ibelin.

I confirm it.

Rise a knight... and baron of Ibelin.

But... it is a poor and dusty place.

There can be no victory

except through God!

My lord?

No.

May God be with us!

When... will it begin?

Soon.

Balista!

Get them to the walls!

Water! Bring water!

Get the machines to the walls!

Push!

Run!

Push!

Why do they not fire back?

They wait.

That was only the first day.

There may be a hundred more.

Salah-al Din will show no mercy.

We must hold out.

Force him to offer terms.

- What terms?
- We fight for the people,

their safety and freedom.

- Mercy.
- No. I cannot.

- Four hundred!
- Four hundred!

- Four hundred!
- Fire!

Fire!

Three hundred!

- Three hundred!
- Fire!

Fire!

Fire!

- One fifty!
- One fifty!

Hold your fire!

Hold!

Fire!

Fire!

Oil! Now!

Fire!

Who defends?

Balian of Ibelin,
the son of Godfrey.

Godfrey.

Godfrey nearly killed me
in the Lebanon. Truly.

- I did not know he had a son.
- It was his son at Kerak.

- The one you let live.
- Yes.

Perhaps you should not have.

Perhaps... I should have had
a different teacher.

- Fire!
- Fire!

Fire!

Fire!

Fire!

Now!

You are not a sister.

We are what we do.

Then I am a man who's traveled
a long way to die for nothing.

What would you say to that?

I would say that I'm sorry.

And I'm sorry for you,

Queen of Jerusalem.

When a body is burnt,

it cannot be resurrected
until Judgment Day.

If we do not burn these bodies,

we will all be dead of disease
in three days.

God will understand, my lord.

And if He doesn't,

then He is not God,

and we need not worry.

The wall where the Christopher gate
used to be has been weakened.

Yes. Usually when a gate is blocked in,
it is weaker than the wall around it.

- Or stronger.
- It is weaker! Rashid has seen it!

This will be our door into Jerusalem.

This is where we will make our stand.

We must prepare.

Brothers!

Brothers!

God has sent you this day!

You will take no prisoners!
As they did so shall it be done!

- Allahu akbar!
- Allahu akbar!

When this wall comes down,

there will be no quarter.

If you throw down your arms,

your families will die.

We can break this army here.

So I say, let them come.

Let them come!

Come on!

Come on! Come on!

Remember me in France,

Master Gravedigger.

My lord!

They will ask for terms.

They must... ask for terms.

Convert to Islam. Repent later.

You've taught me
a lot about religion,

Your Eminence.

Will you yield the city?

Before I lose it,
I will burn it to the ground.

Your holy places, ours,

every last thing in Jerusalem
that drives men mad.

I wonder if it would not be better
if you did.

- You will destroy it?
- Every stone.

And every Christian knight you kill
will take ten Saracens with him.

You will destroy your army here
and never raise another.

I swear to God that to take this city
will be the end of you.

Your city
is full of women and children.

If my army will die,
so will your city.

Do you offer terms?
I ask none.

I will give every soul
safe conduct to Christian lands.

Every soul.

The women, the children, the old
and all your knights and soldiers

and your Queen.

Your King, such as he is,

I leave to you
and what God will make of him.

No one will be harmed.
I swear to God.

The Christians butchered
every Muslim within the walls

when they took this city.

I am not those men.
I am Salah-al Din.

Salah-al Din.

Then, under these terms,
I surrender Jerusalem.

And peace be with you.

What is Jerusalem worth?

Nothing.

Everything.

I have surrendered Jerusalem.

All will be safely escorted
to the sea.

If this is the Kingdom of Heaven,

let God do with it as He wills.

Balian! Balian!

Balian!

Your brother's kingdom was here

and here.

That kingdom
can never be surrendered.

What should I do?

I'm still the Queen of Acre,
Ascalon, Tripoli.

Decide not to be a queen

and I will come to you.

The perfect knight.

Is that what you think you are?
Is it?

We are all of us what we do.

Do it.

When you rise again,

if you rise,

rise a knight.

This horse

is not a very good horse.

I will not keep it.

Thank you.

And if God does not love you,

how could you have done
all the things that you have done?

Peace be upon you.

A queen never walks.

And yet you are walking.

Forward!

Forward!

Halt!

We crusade to recover
the Kingdom of Jerusalem.

You go
to where the men speak Italian

and then continue
until they speak something else.

We come by this road
to find Balian

who was defender of Jerusalem.

I am the blacksmith.

And I am the King of England.

I am the blacksmith.

Formation!

Forward!
