Our spiritual friends knew this!

Here...

Look what is here for you.

Oh Chico!

''Dear mommy,

I see you from here,

I love you.

I miss you.

Our Lord Jesus' love

is sublime.

I am alive,

I've got to rid myself

of the bonds to home

to be better.

I'm well cared for here.

Bless me.

Toms Vana de Oliveira.''

Come, my daughter.

-Chico! How are you?

-Yes, doctor!

Ready?

I don't think any one

is ever ready for this.

We can't be sure

before we see the prostate,

but with your protectors

I believe it'll be benign.

-Then, I am ready.

-It'll be alright.

The nurse will give you

something to relax.

Okay? We'll see each other later.

Thanks.

I can't understand

why you didn't go see Arig...

At least to make sure.

He might have even

been able to fix you.

Cleide, Doctors study,

they know a lot...

For a medium to open up

a Christian's body

I think it is a crime.

Don't say that Chico,

I'm worried about your health...

Don't you worry, Cleide.

Emmanuel said that

I would only disembody

on a day that everybody in Brazil

was very happy.

Then you ain't never

gonna die, right?

Don't you think it makes

you look a bit... exotic?

I prefer to not to

discuss this with you.

At least my appearance

belongs to me.

You are late, Chico.

We're gonna miss the plane.

We're never late.

This TV stuff

is too new for me.

You shouldn't have accepted,

why did you?...

Emmanuel ordered you to.

Not a word about this.

Aren't you that guy

who sees spirits.

I knew it!

From UberIandia. I've seen

your name in the newspaper.

You must have seen it.

After all, you recognized me

from UberIandia.

How are you?

It's nice to know what the

other side is like, isn't it?

Here I am terrified

and you... relaxed.

-God help and save us!

-Now it's serious!

Our Lady of Aparecida!

-Help!

-Why are you screaming?

Why... Our lives are at risk.

Many people's lives are in danger.

Why should you be privileged?

If my life is in danger,

I'm gonna scream.

Oh my, Help me Lord!

Don't you think this is

a good time to prove your faith,

-your belief in immortality?

-I am terrified!

I think I might die if

we crash like everyone!

We're all going to die...!

So shut up and die politely.

Oh, God, God!

Have mercy on us...

Have mercy.

Thank God!

-Amen!

-Amen!

We thank Jesus' kindness...

for the opportunity

we were given today.

They say the ungrateful forget,

but tonight...

I was taken

far away in time,

I was with my mother...

My mother gave me

this incarnation out of kindness...

If you'll allow me

I'd like to pray as

she prayed with me

since I was four.

Our Father,

which art in heaven,

hallowed be thy name;

thy kingdom come;

thy will be done,

in Earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses,

as we forgive them

that trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation;

but deliver us from evil.

For thine is the kingdom...

Tell Saulo to ask him

to start Spirit Writing.

the power, and the glory,

for ever and ever.

Amen.''

Chico, please,

I'd like to ask you

to do a spirit writing.

Yes, yes of course.

-The whole deal.

-Thank you.

Could I have some music?

Ah yes, of course...

Music.

Don't you believe?

Not even a little, man?

No!

Not after

all that's happened.

Do you mind

waiting for just a little while?

Please!

There are things in this letter

that concern you,

and others too.

It is a difficult situation.

But tell your wife,

a mother's love

is so powerful that,

my mother helped me

find my way

even after

she was disembodied.

I know your wife

has enough Iove

to understand

your son's message.

I don't know what my wife

toId you when you met.

But she's not

the probIem, I am.

Maybe my memory faiIs me.

But I don't remember

having taIked to your wife.

You wrote her a letter.

I'm like a postman.

I receive tons of letters.

I deliver them.

Testing, testing...

Spaceship Excelsior

calling Earth base.

''Ma Goya'',

do you read me...?

This is, ''Ma Gia,''over.

Stop it, Mom.

This isn't a walkie-talkie.

It is a spaceship.

You don't say over, ''Ma Goya.''

Go ahead,

Commander Orlando.

Commander Orlando

speaking from Earth.

Do you read me

Lieutenant Tomas?

I'm sorry.

I know you don't like

listening to this...

''Ma Goya, over.''

I never told Chico that.

I swear, no one knew.

''Ma Goya. Ma Goya, over.

My dear mother,

my beloved father.

May God enlighten you.

It was very peaceful.

I didn't feel a thing.

What hurts most

is thinking of your suffering.

I've recovered

from the accident...''

What accident?

Go on. Please. Go on.

''The peace here

in the spirit plane...

makes us

want to help others.

So, I want you

to help more people.

And this is why

I want to say that...

Eduardo...

isn't guilty?!...''

What is this?!

''We were messing

with the gun,

and without either of us

doing anything much,

it went off and fired the shot

that took... me.

No one's fault.

But the result

is still the same...

I know

how dad likes his privacy,

but Grandpa wants to tell dad...

that that day

in the hospital,

he wanted to tell dad...

that he never missed...

he never missed...

a show dad did.

Well, grandpa says

the shows were always silly,

but he watched every last

one of them anyway...''

Sounds just like your Father...

''Grandpa wanted to tell you,

but the words

wouldn't come out

of his mouth.

A thousand kisses,

Tomas.''

I'll try to explain.

I was with my dad in the hospital,

he was in a coma

and...

and I was with him,

talking to him,

and I asked him

why he disdained my job,

why didn't he ever

say anything?

I did so many of the things

and they were all for him...

and that he refused

to watch...

And now Tomas...

They...

This...

What is this?

He is well.

-He's well my love...

-What is this?

The victim's parents had

a letter annexed to the suit,

supposedly dictated by son...

to Francisco Xavier,

the famous medium.

In this letter, Tomas

or Tomas' spirit,

states that he and the accused

were ''playing around'',

the gun fired randomly,

killing the victim.

The letter comes with a signature

Similar to the victim's,

as can be seen

on his ID papers

and was also submitted

to a handwriting expert.

Mr. Prosecutor,

you may question the witness.

I'd like to note

that in previous hearings

you were hostile

to the accused,

quite normal

under the circumstances,

but in great

contrast to your new attitude.

Was there no kind of appeal,

or even coercion,

which may have influenced

this change in attitude?

None whatsoever.

We...

We acted completely

out of our own free will.

Are you a Spiritist?

No. I am an atheist.

And so?

It is very difficult

as a parent

to be here in front of...

my son's killer

and ask for his release.

Very difficult.

I don't know how to explain,

but I am now

convinc...

Sorry! But I'm convinced

my son...

my son wrote this letter.

It is my son's letter.

In an unheard of decision
