Agora

English subtitle by : Eduun

The late fourth century A.D. the

Roman Empire began to crumble.

Alexandria, in the province of Egypt,

still retained some of its lustre,...

...possessed one of the Seven

Wonders of the ancient world:...

...the legendary lighthouse,

and the biggest library known.

The library was a not only

cultural but a religious symbol,...

a place where the pagans worshiped

their ancestral gods.

The traditional pagan worship

in the city now coexisted...

...with the Jews, and an unstoppable

religion up to now banned,...

...Christianity.

Library of Alexandria, 391 A.D.

After taking the library, many

pagans were converted...

Hipatia continued teaching and

researching,...

...while his former students held...

...important positions in the

social elite.

The empire was split in two forever.

Many Christians saw this as a

sign of the end of the world...

...and decided to prepare by

practicing a more holy life.

The order of "Parabolanos" monks

was charged to go...

...through the streets and watch

for Christian morality...

...now uneven by the presence

of the Jews.

The Library, years later.

How many fools

have wondered

why not the stars fall

from the sky

But you,

not happy to cease of the wise, / i

You know that the stars

do not move up or down. / i

only reborn

from east to west, / i

following the most perfect post

ever can see , / i

circle. / i

Because the circle reigns

in heaven, / i

the stars would never have fallen

and never will. / i

But what about here on Earth?

Here, bodies do fall.

But their movements

are not circular but linear.

Look again.

Again.

No, leave it.

So,

What mysterious wonder

do you would think / i

that may lurk beneath the earth

for every single person and animal, / i

and object and all laid exact

on there/ i

What may should be?

The highness, madame.

No.

Sinesio.

The weighty.

No, you both speaking about the same thing,

but you not talking about primary course. / i

Has anyone ever thought about

your..

your feet ...

your feet

standing perched on the

very center of the cosmos / i

that holds all things together,

pull them together

If there is no center,

the universe would be

deformed, infinite, formless,

chaotic. / i

Doesn't matter that we were

here, there or anywhere / i

What you will do? That's right

never being born

Library of Alexandria 391 AD

God, Our Father,

lord of the universe,

origin of all things,

eternal force of the cosmos,

where everything has

its beginning and its end.

What happen 227 had become

Divide with 14.

They behave like humans!

you who console yourself

with pagan images.

Men, women,

birds, reptiles!

Serapis!

Serapis! Who could trust

the God, need a flower pot

for crown?

Hey You, Christians, how arrogant you

to take another

Empire attitude like this

My father's father saw them

slaughtered at the circus

and ate to the lions.

Enough! Watch.

Watch.

You see now

I walk cross the fire.

If my god ...

If my God is the true god,

I unscathed, no hurt.

And if your gods exist,

they'll roast me like a pig. / i

You ...

You're lie!

You'll burn!

You will have what you deserve!

Let's see if you can walk cross

the fire.

What are you doing?

Stop, you can not do that!

Leave him alone. / I

Quiet! or you will follow. / i

Who is this?

Who is this?

How many times should I

must repeat message?

Today,

Christians

Not in the house of Theon!

Give it to me.

Give it to me!

No terrific mercy is way go

- Davo!

Get up.

You have nothing to do

with this.

I do, i am a Christian.

Leave us ...

Come here.

Kneel.

Tell me, is true

you are a Christian? / i

I do not know what to say, madame.

- Why not?

If i say yes, that will be a lie

If I said no, i lied to

my master and I do not know which is worse.

Then say nothing.

That's it.

Thank you.

The master is very angry

himself. / i

What is that?

Something I've done.

looks like a .../ i

What is it?

the Ptolemaic system. / i

Yes it is.

Have you done?

Earth

is the center of the cosmos

and revolve around

the sun

and the five wanderers: Mercury,

Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn.

Never disobeying

the law of the circle.Never

Ptolemy

told me show as do obey.

affected if you see them move

in a loop / i

is the Join effect of

two circles. / i

One

travel around the Earth

and the smaller circle

own each wandering. / i

Loop, the epicycles

"say you see is not happen on the earth"

but our eyes

deceive us.

Well search, Davo.

I like you do the explanation search even

paying course attention or not

One or two..up here

I tell you The Gods should consulted

to me before they creating anything.

Why say that?

It's all so whimsical! / i

Why is the joint take of

two circles?

Would not be more, perfect

if the wander is..

if wander and a single circle

give sense to everything?

What authority do you judge

the work of God?

What is wrong with you, Christians?

The man is no longer with brief mouth

in this city

Could you decide creation, you could decide

a Lord,

and you offended.

You should move to the desert.

You will not hear anything offensive there.

You know nothing about you speak.

None of you.

What this.. you can explain to all?

What is the question?

Just.. answer me.

If .../ i

if two things are equal

a third thing, / i

and They are all equal to each other

Well.

Now, Are you are not similar to me?

Yes

And you, Orestes?

Yes

Now I am actually say with everybody

here in this room,

More things you joint us

and divide us.

Whatever happens on the street,

we are brothers. / i

We are brothers.

Did you remember, the fights are a thing

of slaves and rabble.

Now We should give Davo's presentation

well applause

We will judge all

a live and dead!

And then it will be too late,

because only those who believed in Jesus

we'll be saved.

What are you waiting for?

What are you waiting for?

The Kingdom of God is near. / i

Do you understand what

I am telling to you?

Yes

Do You understand like man do
