He's here
Take off his clothes and wash him
- Did you wash the body?
- Yes
[Praying in Latin]
Oh, Dad
Mother
Can you come home?
I want you to be with your siblings and I
There's no way, I need to get
back to the convent before nighttime
Luis, Mariana, Balthazar...
Say goodbye to your brother
Keep it together
[Praying in Latin]
Go see me in Santo Domingo when you can
Yes
I'll say Mass in honor of our father
[Praying in Hebrew]
Free me from my enemies, dear Lord
Save me from those who rise against me
Protect me from those who commit injustices
And keep me from the bloodthirsty
They're after my life
The powerful have joined forces against me
Through no fault or crime of my own
With no crime of mine, they get ready to fight me
Know that our holy Christian faith...
...needs the practice of the Holy Inquisition
You must come forward and tell us...
...if you know of people who observe Saturdays...
...honoring Moses' dead laws
If they don't light fire starting Friday evening...
If they slit the throats of the animals
they eat and spread blood on the walls
If they're still waiting for the Messiah to rescue...
...them from their so-called captivity
If they practice circumcision, wash their dead
Or follow any practises foreign to us
If you've ever heard them say
that Moses' law is the true law
Over our Lord's Jesus Christ
We demand you come
forward or face excommunication
So truth can prevail and the evil may be punished
And our holy Catholic faith may blossom
Praise Jehovah, for he is good
- For his mercy is eternal
- What is that?
A book of psalms I borrowed from Rabbi Morales
Put it away, how dare you, we're on the main road
[Monks chanting]
Hail Mary, full of grace
Blessed is the fruit of your womb
Could you spare some water?
- Here Father
- Where are you heading?
To the mines at Taxco, to sell
- Are you creoles?
- From the Peninsula
Thank you, God bless you
Be careful
- Why?
- There's an outbreak
They say Jews are poisoning the wells
[Monks chanting]
What is it Gaspar?
I have lots of doubts, Father Lorenzo
- About your faith?
- No
It's about my mother and my siblings
I think they're living in sin
Explain yourself
I fear they practise Moses' dead laws
What are you saying?
I noticed strange rites at my father's funeral
Consider the gravity of your suspicions
Are you sure?
No Father Lorenzo, I really wish I wasn't
That's why I commited a sin
by not coming forward sooner
And are you, or have you ever been, a Jew?
No, never
You know me, you know I
barely see my family...
...since I joined the convent at age 10
They never told me anything
that went against the faith
I seldom see them since, they practically don't visit
I only went because it was my father's funeral
I can't absolve you, to save your soul...
...you must tell the holy
Inquisition about your suspicions
But I don't know for sure, it's my family
You must do it
Yes Father Lorenzo
Father Lorenzo
We're here to request an
audience with Inquisidor Peralta
Wait here, I'll see if he's available
It's okay, you may come in
Father Alonso, Fray Gaspar de
Carbajal must speak with you
Please
In the name of the Father,
the Son and the Holy Spirit
I'm here voluntarily and I swear to say the truth
- Name?
- Fray Gaspar de Carbajal
From the preachers' order
Speaker at the convent in Mexico City
Age?
30 years old
- Originally from?
- Benavente in Castille
Speak
Following my Christian duty and my conscience
I accuse Francisca, my mother, Luis,
Balthazar and Mariana, my siblings
Of being Jews and practicing
rites contrary to our Catholic faith
How long since they live by Moses' dead laws?
- I don't know
- How can you not know?
He's telling the truth, I know him,
he's been in the convent since childhood
Do they observe Saturdays?
Do they abstain from lighting
things since Friday evening?
I wouldn't know
Do they practise any of the fasting rituals?
Do they sacrifice lamb and
spread blood across the walls?
Do they slit the throats of the animals they eat?
I don't know. I was handed
over to the Church as a child
So there would be a religious man in the family
I suppose they were covering their tracks
So you have no basis for this accusation
I have them
In my father's funeral, they washed the body
They buried him without a coffin
And prayed in Hebrew
That's enough
Don't talk to anyone or leave the convent
Stay in absolute lock down until the
holy Inquisition tells you otherwise
Yes Father
He's your responsibility, Father Lorenzo
I understand
Read
Mexico City, Friday, May 12, 1593
Being in the morning session,
the present Inquisidors...
...received the Dominican friars
Lorenzo de Alborns and Gaspar de Carbajal
Enlighten me, merciful God
Witnesses. Domestic witnesses
such as wives and children...
...are admitted to testify against, but never in favor
Such testimonies hold a lot of power
Given that the crime of heresy is
committed in the heart of the home
Brother may testify against brother,
and son against father
We must first obey God, before one's family
The nature of the crime and identity...
...of the accuser will be witheld from the accused
Order their detention
Get the door
- I'm scared
- Why?
No one but the Inquisition knocks this late
- Arrest her
- No, no, no! Let me go!
No, no! Let me go! No!
Let me go, no!
Have mercy, no, no!
- One's missing
- He's not here
We were expecting the mineral from Taxco tonight
Let's go
Hail Mary, full of grace [...]
[Praying continues]
By orders of the Inquisition
...you will spy on everything Carbajal says or does
I beg you to give me another mission
I don't want to become an informant
I'm not asking for your help
It's a punishment imposed by the holy Inquisition
Remember you're a prisoner
You have committed trespasses against God's law
A sheriff will bring you in periodically
so you can tell us what you know
Other than that, this is in strict confidence
I swear on God's name
It's too dark, I can't see properly
You'll get used to it
Who are you?
My name is Luis de Carbajal
Why are you in here?
I don't know, you?
I suspect my vicar turned me in. I hear voices
And I see things
- I was a priest in Santa Fe
- Santa Fe?
- Do you know Gregorio Lpez?
- No
Who's that?
A wise man, he lives a hermit's life
I can't remember him
- There are no hermits in Santa Fe
- Oh
I'm cold
Cover up, I'll sleep on the floor
It's very muddy, I don't want to put you out
- Have you had a hearing?
- No
- Has anybody come to get you?
- No, no one, never
One night the sherifs came into our
house and brought us before the Inquisition
My mother and sister must be in another cell
Oh, I don't know
Do they feed us?
Yeah, they bring the food at noon
You won't believe me,
but I'm eating better than ever
- What will become of us?
- I don't know
Who knows when we're at the Inquisition
But have faith, our Lord will help us
Hail Mary, full of grace [...]
[Luis joins in prayer]
They're running away from the outbreak
But it'll catch up with them
No one will be spared
What about us? Will we die too?
Not you
Your boat will leave from Veracruz soon
I owe you my life Master Gregorio Lpez
Let me know when you get to Thessaloniki
I'll let your family know
What will happen to them?
Let's eat, go k*ll a hen
Yes Master
I know why you're here
You write Jewish things
The only ones here are those the Inquisition...
...wants to take something from
Liar! The Inquisition isn't after riches
It just wants to uphold faith and good morals
Faith? Morals?
By burning, tormenting, imprisoning?
Doesn't matter. Anything it takes
The life of the flesh is not important
What we must save is your soul
No one can save us through terror, Friar
True religion seeks justice
A religion's truth depends on the God it worships
Ours is a God of love, yours of wrath, vengeance
You're blind, that's blasphemy
There is only one God, yours and mine
Mine?
The only one, there are no others
The God of Israel is also your God, Friar
I hadn't thought of it that way
But it's not true!
If your God is almighty,
why does he let you rot in here?
Because the just must suffer in unjust lands
I don't understand you, Luis
You're a nobody, Friar Hernando
Deep down you don't believe in anything
You have no faith
Thank you
God help you, Father
Your food was touched by a dog
The outbreak is their fault
Aren't you eating?
- I can't
- Why?
God gave Moses the law written in the holy Bible
There are filthy animals that shouldn't be eaten
This plate is crawling with impurities
That's the old law
There's only one law
Only one word, that which God revealed to Moses
Everything else is empty
Those who don't follow it are condemned
Forever in the eternal fire... God is unique
Your prophet wasn't God
He was as mortal as you and me
That's blasphemy
It's not against Him, it's against them
The Inquisition is the home
of pestilence and abominations
Jesus died to save us
He died as a man
He's not the Messiah
The Messiah will be here soon
- I know it
- Christ isn't God?
God is but one, and he's immortal, like his Law
And the Messiah?
He'll come, and I'll be here to see him
No, you won't, they'll burn you
Don't you realize where you are, Carbajal?
I know my saviour lives and will rise from the dust
Keep your voice down, they can hear us
Let's get rid of this filth
Tomorrow we'll get chicked and vegetables
Friar Gaspar? Friar Gaspar?
He won't answer, he's gone mute
since his family was imprisoned
He won't open the door either,
do you think he's in?
Of course he's in, let's go inside
- The outbreak!
- How did he get it?
- He never left his room
- Let's go tell someone, hurry!
Friar Hernando Ruiz is called to a hearing
Tell us what Carbajal has said and
done against our holy Catholic faith
I swear to God that I haven't seen or heard him...
...say anything against our holy Catholic faith
- Okay, watch every detail
- I swear
What did they do to you?
Do you know why I went there?
No
They summoned me to turn on you
So I could tell them everything
we've discussed for the past few days
- Did you tell them?
- They put me in here to spy on you
So what did you do?
Nothing
- Nothing?
- Nothing at all
Why?
Because I wish my faith was as strong as yours
My faith? Did I convince you
of the strength of my faith?
I don't believe you, Friar Hernando
[Playing a board game]
- Open the door
- Yes, Father
Doa Francisca de Carbajal is called to a hearing
- No, no!
- Come, don't resist
- No, no, no!
- Let go of her!
Mother, Mother, Mother!
No! Not my mother!
Silence! Silence!
Quick, quick!
No, no, no!
In the name of the Father,
the Son and the holy Spirit
Come closer
Swear you'll tell the truth on anything your asked...
...or anything you say of your own account
- I swear
- Take a seat
Name, origin and residence
Francisca de Carbajal
Born in Benavente, Castille,
residing in Mexico at the Portal of the Sequia
Husband and children
I'm the widow of Rodrigo de Carbajal
Recently deceased
Mother of Gaspar, Dominican friar
Of Luis and Balthazar, merchants
And Mariana, unmarried maiden living by my side
What caste and generation do
you and your family come from?
Ancient Christians, with no lineage to any sects
Have any of them been imprisoned or
condemned by the holy Inquisition?
No
But my daughter Mariana
and my son Luis are in jail
Are you a baptized and confirmed Christian?
Yes, Father
Recite the Lord's Prayer
Our Father in Heaven, hallowed be thy name [...]
Do you know, or can you guess,
why you're imprisoned?
I don't know, I don't know
Must be libel
An enemy must want to harm me
The holy Inquisition doesn't apprehend anyone...
...without enough information...
...of having said or done anything...
...against our Catholic faith...
...Evangelical law that
the holy Roman Church preaches
Be it Moses' old law or
Muhammad's or Luther's sects
Given that you're imprisoned...
...there must be solid information against you
We beseech you to tell the truth...
...and free your conscience
If you do so, the holy Inquisition will be merciful
If you don't, know that justice will be served
I understand, but I've done
nothing against the Catholic faith
And therefore, I can't confess to anything
It's libel
Someone wants to harm me
That's all I can say
Okay, bearing the evidence in mind...
...we condemn Francisca de
Carbajal to be put in a state of torment
She shall remain in such state until she confesses
If she should die or become
injured during the proceedings...
...the fault lies with her, for refusing to be truthful
By God, please don't turn against me
For God's sake, tell the truth and spare yourself
I've told the truth
May God punish he who harms me so
I shall endure what He went through on the cross
- Let the executioner in
- Executioners!
Disrobe her
k*ll me, but don't disrobe me or desecrate me
- Tell the truth
- I've said everything I know
No, no, no, please!
Tell the truth
There is no larger torment than
to find myself naked and humiliated
- Tell the truth
- I'll die before I say that which I ignore
- To the device
- No!
No, no! This is just someone's evil doing!
Mother, no! Mother, Mother!
She'll be fine, don't fret
Use this ointment
It's awful, just awful
I couldn't resist, I told them everything
I couldn't bear it, they know everything
- What?
- I told them about you
About Luis, I told them everything
They'll burn us, they'll burn us!
Wise of you to worry
The more you suffer, the less pain you'll feel
This too shall pass
We must die to reach eternal life
I had a vision
King David came to me to give me a potion...
...that makes me immune to pain
He ordered me to change my name
I am no longer Luis de Carbajal
Now I am Jos Lumbroso
He who gives light
He who burns in his faith
[Praying in Hebrew]
Guard! Guard I request a hearing!
I'll swear! I'll swear!
No, Luis
I, Luis de Carbajal
Of my own and spontaneous will
Renounce all heresy
Especially the one I am accused from
Moses' old law, its rites and ceremonies
And I admit the holy Catholic faith in me
The one the holy Roman Church preaches
And I shall forever live and die in it
And I swear to God,
our Lord, and Jesus, his only son
And to the four gospels and the holy cross
And swear allegiance to our Pope Sixtus V
And I shall persecute those against our Church
I won't favor, lead or visit them
And if I break these vows
Hold me accountable
Curse me, excommunicate me and execute me
They hung him, they hung him
Hung him! Adonai! Why have you abandoned me?
The Carbajals must keep in secret...
...everything that took
place during the proceedings
And everything they saw or
heard at the holy Inquisition
They shall not disclose anything,
directly or indirectly
Francisca de Carbajal and her daughter Mariana...
...shall lived confined under strict surveilance...
...in the Tlatelolco neighborhood
Luis de Carbajal shall wear a penitent's robe
And serve at San Hiplito's mental asylum
If they incur in heresy again
Know that mercy will not be granted again
They shall be delivered to justice
And shall burn at the stake
Jewish dog!
The outbreak's your fault, Jew!
Damn Jewish dog!
When you see that someone is impatient
When you see that all they
have are lightnings of zeal
Whims of devotion
When you see that they serve their own interests
Their own satisfaction and glory
Don't trust their love for God
- Hail Mary
- Full of Grace
Carbajal
At your service, Father
I heard you're a caligrapher
- I was
- Can you remember Latin?
Yes Father
That's lucky, I need someone
who can write and translate
Come with me
Dog!
17:14
Of the uncircumcised male
[Reading inaudibly]
Shall be excluded from my people
Are you done?
Here it is, take a look, Father
There's no need
- You're kind to me
- I'm only fair
You deserve it
You know better than anyone that
the holy Bible shouldn't be read
Yes Father
Not only is it a sin,
but you may worsen your situation
Forgive me
It's a shame that you disobey me
Right when I've allowed for you
to sleep at your mother's house
You're not humble
You don't have Christian meekness
- Father
- You swore, Carbajal
It's my fault, please forgive me
Father Oroz
May I continue visiting my mother?
Yes, Luis
Here you go
God bless you, son
Come in, we were waiting for you
[Praying in Hebrew]
I saw you dancing, Justa Mendez
Dancing?
You were dancing with some soldiers
You saw me?
No, I heard
It's not true
You go with men
Yes
I get jealous
Why?
Nothing's taken from you
You're hurting me
Do you love me?
No
- The clean draft, Father
- Let me see
I have sinned, oh Lord
But I won't bid your love and mercy farewell
I fear being punished for my sins
And I hope your kindness will forgive me
I fear being loathed for my ingratitude
For my sin comes back enlarged
And you're so worthy of being loved
What would become of me without you?
Who would save me from
myself if you weren't there?
If your hand didn't give me grace
How couldn't I love you, my God?
You, who suffers and bears with me?
Who would take me if not you, my Lord?
Well, it doesn't really rhyme much
And what was all that about
"me" and "you", for example?
It's a bit of a flaw
But it could also show audacity on your behalf
What matters is your sincere contrition
Your Christian feeling...
...is magnificent
Thank you Father Oroz
Dog wearing a penitence robe
God damn heretic, the outbreak is your fault
Rabbi, rabbi, you probably have rabies
Miserable Jewish scum!
What are you doing there?
Nothing
Why don't you knock?
I don't dare
Is there anything wrong?
No
Why are you here?
To bring you this
I have sinned, oh Lord
Why did you write this?
You know why
I want to see you
When?
Tomorrow
Here?
Not here
You're so beautiful, Justa Mendez
Do you love me?
Did anyone see you?
Will anyone realize?
- Don't be a coward, Luis
- A coward?
Yes
Prison broke you
You're terrified of pain
You didn't have the strength of your faith
And you swore out of fear
No Justa Mendez
I didn't swear allegiance to any of their gods
I just had to get out
I discoved in jail that I have the power...
...to drive people to the true religion
Shut up
Come here
I had a vision in my cell
I, Jos Lumbroso, needed to
be free to sire the Messiah
Do it inside me
It's okay, it's okay
Luis
Luis
The sacrifice of my
circumcision is to cleanse my sins
And for your glory, Adonai
I can't bear it, I can't bear it
I hope the pain subsides
I don't want to go back to the Inquisition
Hang in there, don't be a coward, Luis
I can't, I'm going to die
He'll heal, but it was
stupid not to ask me to perform it
Do you think I can take him home?
No, it's best for Rabbi Morales to hide him
We're being watched
They wouldn't suspect a doctor
If they find out about the circumcision...
...we'll go back to the Inquisition
And they'll t*rture us
He'll be all right here
Tell Father Oroz that he has a fever
The outbreak is spreading
throughout the New Spain
It's the Jews
They dismember children during their ceremonies
They poison water and their food
Their fault indeed
Completely their fault
For the love of God, that's nonsense
They came here searching for the new Jerusalem
They want to destroy us and keep the spoils
We must exterminate them without mercy
The Inquisition persecutes heretics
But our Lord wants to see them repent, not dead
And the outbreak?
You are the head of the Royal Hearing
Ask the Viceroy for help, pray and have faith
Evening prayer
[Praying in Latin]
[Singing]
Approach, what's wrong?
- I committed blasphemy
- What?
I took the Lord's name in vain
I wanted Justa Mendez and I
told her it was to sire the Messiah
I hope the circumcision returns my chastity
Let's hope to God that from now on
Your faith is greater than your lust
You're a good man, Luis
Marry my daughter
- Glad to see you, son
- Thank you Father Oroz
Is the fever gone?
I'm okay, I'll catch up with my work
[Praying in Hebrew]
Let me go! Let me go! No, no!
I don't want to go back!
I'll rather die than be tortured again!
- Calm down
- Mariana, calm down, no one will hurt you
It's all Luis' fault, I can see the blood
- Stop
- I don't want to go back to the Inquisition
Let go! I'll rather die!
- To the bedroom!
- All is lost!
- I want to die!
- She'll calm down in a while
Please!
We must continue with the ceremony
Show me the way, Lord
Stir me away from being unjust,
or making mistakes
Everything I do, I do for your glory
To guide souls into singing you eternal praises
Show me the way, Lord, don't leave me
Justa's here to take you to Rabbi Morales' house
She asked me to return her book of psalms
Please give it to her
Are you okay?
Yes
- The psalms!
- What?
It's a small book, I lost it, help me find it!
Calm down, Mariana
It has his name on it!
They'll catch us and it'll be my fault!
Because of me! I don't want to go back!
I don't want to go back!
Mariana calm down, we'll find it
What's wrong? May I help?
Leave her
She has fits, she's insane
- Is it the outbreak?
- Go away!
They'll burn me! They'll burn me!
It's the Inquisitions handywork.
That's how they convince people
They want everyone to be like them
And to what end? Terror, insanity, death
- Will she be okay?
- I don't know
Father
Is it okay if I don't come in tomorrow?
I need to get money
The Inquisition demands
it so I can remove the robe
Where will you go?
To a hacienda close to Santa Fe
I'll put you in touch with friends who can help
When you get enough money,
I'll speak to the Inquisition on your behalf
Thanks Father
I'm leaving, I'll be back soon
And the book?
Don't worry
No one will find it
Adonai is merciful to us
- Luis
- Don't touch me Justa Mendez
Master!
Master Gregorio Lpez!
Who's knocking?
- It's me, Jos Lumbroso
You broke your word, Lumbroso
You never come to see me
Master, it's hard to leave the convent wearing this
Could I have some water?
I have news from your brother Balthazar
He made it to Thessaloniki
Tell your mother not to worry about him
I'm glad
Mariana is now the problem
The Inquisition's t*rture drove her mad
You're the only one who can help her
We could hide her here
What they did to her is unforgivable
My mother's distraught
- She's not the same
- It's evil
Just look at the original inhabitants of the land
They way they treat them, like slaves
The powerful commit injustices
But Jehova will turn rulers into dust
Give this to your sister
Ancient Mexicans used these herbs
They'll ease her pain
She'll get her wits back
Master
Master, my brother's dying, the outbreak
Luis, the herbs!
Leave the room, please
You're in a death trance, domingo de Lucena
Ask forgiveness for your sins
Return to Moses' law
The true faith of your elders
- You can still be saved
- No!
I'm Catholic, Apostolic and Roman Catholic
I have nothing to fear
Christ will save me
Ours is the one true religion
Everything else is empty
Air and dust
- It's nothing
- Leave me alone!
I don't want to
- Drink
- Stay away, Gregorio Lpez
Drink this, it'll save you
You still have time
- Come back to the one true God
- Luca, Luca!
- What is it?
- Throw them out, throw them out!
Poor blind man, you know not what you do
How can I help you, Father Oroz?
The Inquisidor Peralta summoned
Luis de Carbajal to a hearing today
I'm here to speak on his behalf
He has the requested amount to remove the robe
I must say I believe in his true contrition
In his Christianity and good faith
Okay, I'll let him know you're here
Father Oroz and Carbajal are here
Go and take a look from the small door
That's him, he's the man
who was with Gregorio Lpez
He wasn't wearing the robe
Tell the truth, every offense
against God and the Catholic faith
I told you the truth
I won't deny being a Jew, I will die
Who would I be hiding?
I don't want to say more than
I should for fear of t*rture
Carbajal, your process has been
overseen by outstanding people
They've decided you must be
placed in a situation of torment
So you tell us the whole truth
Whatever I say in that device
will be just to get out of it
And may God forgive me
- Executioner
- Executioners!
For God's sake, tell the truth and avoid suffering
God knows you're tormenting me without fault
Help me God so I can resist without telling lies
To the device
- Tell the truth
- I have nothing to add
First turn
- Tell the truth
- I'll speak!
Stop
It's true, my mother, my sister and I swore in vain
We've never stopped believing in Moses' law
- What else?
- That's it
Tell the truth
I've told you everything!
Second turn
Lord have mercy on me, this is an abomination!
Tell the truth
Third turn
- Tell the truth
- Yes, yes, yes!
Stop!
Gregorio Lpez too and Juan de Almeida
Constancia Rodrguez, Clara Enrquez
Sebastin de la Pea, Toms Cardozo
Antonio Daz Mrquez and his wife Beatriz
Cristbal Gmez, Ana Ziga and her son Carlos
- And Elena Baez
- And who else?
I don't know!
Fourth turn
Tell the truth
Lord of Israel, must I lie?
Oh, my! I told you everything I know!
Just finish me off!
Tell the truth
Fifth turn
Tell the truth
k*ll me, k*ll me, that's all I know!
Sixth turn
Tell the truth
Enough, enough, enough!
Stop
Dr Morales and his daughter Catalina
And Justa Mndez
Mercy!
She's in there, in the bedroom
I don't know anything, I'm innocent!
- Apprehend him!
- No, no!
What's going on? No! Let me go!
Is this Gregorio Lpez's house?
- Who?
- Gregorio Lpez, the hermit
- I don't know him
- We know he lives here
- No one's ever lived here
- So what is that?
Just rubble
You told them about us, Luis
I swore I wouldn't do that and I've kept my word
He who told on us will not only cause our death
But he also helped them seize our property
That's what the Inquisition is really after
It's not about saving souls, but seizing goods
Nothing leaves the Inquisition alive
If they let anyone go,
it's because they've broken him
What are you saying? You don't believe me?
I'm Jewish!
And want to die as such
And be burned on a Saturday
If it's true that Christ is the Messiah
That God created him, that he was spawn
Then I will go to him
However, the Inquisidor dogs will go to Hell
Where I shall see them burn in torment
Fear has made you mad, Luis
"Where I shall see them burn in torment", Carbajal
"Fear has made you mad,
Luis", I don't know who that was
The mad woman can't stay here
We must lock her up in San Hiplito
[Praying in Latin]
Having concluded the proceedings,
the Inquisidors find Luis de Carbajal guilty
Of the following: changing his
given name to Jos de Lumbroso
Being Jewish and believing in Moses' law
And going back to his faith
even after swearing to God
We accuse him of waiting for the Messiah
Of laughing at Christ's law
Of blasphemy
Of spreading his heresy
He's guilty of all of these crimes
He relapsed and shall be excommunicated,
as well as delivered to justice
He shall be burned alive, thus he will
be punished and made an example to others
His estate shall be seized and
given to Phillip II, King of Spain
- What's your name?
- Mariana
- Mariana de Carbajal
- Praise the Lord! She's sane again
She can hear her sentence
and receive her punishment
Fornicators
Witches
Blasphemers
Jews
First the dead and those absent
who shall be symbolically burned
Now the reconciled
Relapsers and preachers of Moses' dead law
In the name of the Father,
the Son and the holy Spirit
I, Alonso de Peralta,
head Inquisidor of the New Spain
At the service of God and our Majesty, declare:
That the holy Inquisition upholds its
mission to preserve the Catholic faith
Which is the greatest mercy the
aboriginees of this land have received
We must take care to keep these
people as faithful Christians and true Spaniards
To avoid scandals befalling other lands
We mustn't allow any
deviation from our Catholic faith
We must punish and remove errors
and heresy following our current laws
Thanks to this, we have
avoided abominations and pestilence
And we hope our ideals
will be preserved henceforward
We celebrate this event to punish
transgressors and make them an example
Crimes against religion and
good morals shall be punished
These Jews shall be delivered to justice,
asking for mercy and compassion
In the name of the Father,
the Son and the holy Spirit
These prisoners shall face beatings, banishment
Beatings, seizing their property, live imprisonment
And for the relapsers,
being burned alive at the stake
Til they turn to ashes and their memory is erased
- Good bye
- Son!
Let's go
Repent, Luis
There's still time for a confession
You can still make a choice and save yourself
- Will you die in Christ's faith?
- Yes Father
Death by beating and fire to the body
Do you repent? Will you die in Christ's faith?
The cross
Her sanity's back, death by
beating and fire to the body
- Do you repent? Will you die in Christ's faith?
- No, I die in Moses' law
Burn her alive
Do you repent? Will you die in Christ's faith?
Kiss the cross
Death by beating and fire to the body
[Yells out prayer in Hebrew]
I know our savior lives
and shall rise from the dust
