spirit to flesh,

sun to moon.

Forever your flame

is the male.

Don't f***ing kill me.

No, don't, please.

Don't f***ing kill me!

I'll do anything, please!

- We cured him.

There's absolutely

no way.

I'm telling you,

he was a deaf-mute.

You know nothing.

This is a fertility ritual.

You know,

i told you to gag him.

- It'll be great

if you just listen next time.

Okay.

What are you all looking at?

Why are you

looking at me?

What is she doing here?

What?

Ginevra!

Calm down.

Put the totem down!

You do not belong here!

Give it to me.

You don't belong here!

- No, no.

-You don't belong!

Spirit to flesh,

sun to moon.

Quiet.

Fernanda! Stop this!

God, what are you doing here?

I won't let you kill him!

Stop it, Alessandra!

I need to have sex with him!

Why are you...

Why are you even here?

- You don't know

the powers of...

You're a witch? This is crazy!

And you were lying to us

this whole time?

Yes, explain yourself!

All right,

all right, all right.

These people,

they want to kill me,

and I went on the run...

This is my donkey!

She's trying to

take my donkey.

- We have to get her.

- She's out of control.

-All right, let's...

-Enough with

the knife already.

That f***ing b*tch.

You need to know

what's going on!

You need to know!

Wake up!

Wake up! Wake up!

You need to know

what's going on!

Just a minute.

I'll be right there.

-What are you doing?

It's the middle of the night!

-They're witches!

They're witches!

You need to know

about the witches!

They're out there

in the woods!

-Put your clothes on.

-Fernanda's a witch,

her friend's a witch!

-Calm down!

-They're all out there!

Father bartolomeo,

you need to know.

There are witches...

She's a witch! She is a witch!

- I am not a witch!

- Stop!

-You're just jealous.

-No, I am not!

Why are you wearing

your winter habit?

-I saw him first.

-Why is the handyman here?

What do you mean,

you saw him first?

You don't even like men!

You're sexually

attracted to women.

I am sexually

attracted to men.

-What?

-I had sex with him!

-You are a bride of Christ!

-You did not

have sex with him.

You were just writhing

around on him.

-You had sex with him, too.

-Stop.

-How dare you?

Bishop, I did not have sex.

-I'm telling the truth.

Why are you

a tattletale, huh?

I know what you're doing

and she's my donkey now!

Don't talk about my donkey.

I am on donkey duty now!

What is wrong with her?

She is on drugs!

She told me

she took belladonna tonight,

and she's been dancing

around naked in the

woods with witches.

And she's a Jew!

I am not a Jew!

Sister marea!

--Stop talking.

I am not a Jew!

Yes! Stop. Stop.

Sister marea!

Sister marea! Wake up!

I'm not a Jew. I'm not a Jew.

Come out here. Look at this.

I was sleeping!

-Complete chaos!

-I'm sorry.

-Everyone's awake.

-What's on your face?

It's the middle of the night.

There's a donkey downstairs.

Why do you have

pants on your head?

Okay, just please stop!

I can explain everything,

all right? It's all my fault.

I thought you couldn't speak!

He can speak.

-Yeah, he can talk.

-I thought you were

a deaf-mute!

It's a miracle.

We're going to

begin the tribunal.

Sister ginevra,

these are your sins.

Ingestion of drugs,

lying with a woman,

not being baptized.

Not being baptized?

That's what

makes you what you are.

You can't... you shouldn't

even be coming

through those doors!

Being a busybody,

filthy conversation...

Vain jangling, drinking...

Eating blood.

Do you think I've ever written

down "eating blood" before?

Where am I?

Envy, fornication,

homosexuality...

That's the same

as lying with a woman,

but we separate those.

Lustfulness, reveling,

mischief in your heart.

That's the longest list

I've ever had...

For sins.

Please have mercy on me.

For your punishment,

I'm going to have you

fast for one year.

Okay.

-I didn't explain it yet,

so it's not okay.

-Okay.

Because a human being

can't live on not eating.

-No.

-I don't mean you're not gonna

eat for a whole year.

You just pick a meal

in the day

-and skip it.

-Okay.

So, say, it's lunch.

Every day, you've got to

skip lunch.

-Yes.

-And what meal is that?

Uh...

Based on your suggestion,

I'll skip lunch.

It's not my suggestion.

You have to feel the sin.

I can feel lunch.

Sister Alessandra.

You know...

I'm friends with your father,

and now his daughter

is doing this?

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

It's embarrassing.

For me, I'm embarrassed.

How do you think he's gonna

feel when he knows this?

Please don't tell my father.

-There's no need

to tell my father.

-He's a patron of the church,

one of the biggest.

And this place is

completely in disrepair.

It's falling apart.

It looks like a barn

in filicaia.

Have you been there?

-It's disgusting.

-It's disgusting!

Please, please don't say that.

I think I want to call

this place little filicaia.

- No, please.

- I might.

Sister Fernanda,

these are your sins.

Apostasy,

heresy,

-abusive language...

-It's just the tone

of my voice.

Homosexuality...

Revelings, witchcraft.

Did you roll your eyes?

No.

You were rolling your eyes.

Sister marea,

i don't know what to say.

I am shocked.

Fornication?

Living in pleasure?

You, sister marea, you.

Loving the world?

Why don't you just stay here?

Why don't you stay in this

world that you love so much?

Isn't it fun?

Do you have

anything to say?

I'm so sorry, your holiness.

Do you care?

It's just complete lack of...

Are you guys

smiling at each other?

Can you have a moment

to not look at each other?

You're both out of control.

Father tommasso...

I don't even know

where to begin.

I ask your forgiveness...

And I ask god's forgiveness

for failing as the

Shepherd of this flock.

I only ask that you please not

punish the sisters of this

convent for my failings.

Marea.

I'm so sorry.

He's taken away my priesthood.

I have to go to San biagio

and become a monk.

I'm so sorry

for dragging you into this.

You're a good woman.

You're a good woman, marea.

-I should...

-What the hell are you doing?

Get outta here!

You were just crying in there?

What's wrong with you?

Was lying

with Francesca worth it?

I really don't

want to talk about it.

What about that bosom?

Very ample.

Super ample,

plus it's Bruno's wife,

so it had to be so intense.

Can you guys

please stop talking?

You heard

what happened to her, right?

No.

How could I have heard?

"At the end

of the cold season,

"when along the branch
