order to sort out some things...

and no matter where she went

a lot of people enjoyed her.

I only want to hear

something about the girl.

Not these other useless things.

OK.

She has beautiful shoulder-length hair.

What's her name?

You don't know how to tell a story.

She stood tall on stage...

Her dress wrapped around

her beautiful body...

It seems very comfortable.

Her mouth looks best of all.

So you would want her.

I've never seen a

girl as pretty as this.

You'll sleep easier with that thought.

I got a letter from the lawyer today

saying my son is to be executed.

We have to decide what to do

about Luigi, and put an end to it.

Gino must die with honour.

Easier said than done, about Luigi.

There can only be one way.

I can not let my family be shamed.

I hoped this tradition would

stop, but what can I do?

Well, now you quietly

do the right thing.

Gino. It's not my fault.

Now it's your turn.

I thought that you would feel better.

Gino, it's your time.

Me?

It can't be.

Aren't you mistaken?

Bellini, you should be taken out now.

Be brave.

That's not easy.

But I'll try to set an example.

We want you to see a good

example in this matter, do well.

But I shouldn't face death calmly.

I don't have a calm mind to

listen to you talking there.

My heart almost dropped to the

ground, I can't do anything.

Why should I assume these

kind of things just happen?

Gino, have you anything to say?

I don't have anything worth saying.

But I don't understand.

I killed a person who

transgressed, it was for honour.

There's nothing else I can tell you.

I don't know if it's my mistake...

and I don't know who's right.

You have to get dressed.

Please help me sit down.

There isn't a single person in such

circumstances who wouldn't be afraid.

You want to write a final note?

I've already written one.

I wrote down everything.

I only hope that my mother

could have been more happy.

Is this for your lawyer?

It's for my mother.

It says I died in the way of

the Corsicans that she taught me.

I'll tell her.

Let's go.

My friend.

I can't tell you goodbye.

Rene, thank you for the last

few days of life at my side.

I have the lead on you.

Rene, I have to leave.

Let's go.

Don't grab me.

I don't need to wear those things.

I'm not going to run.

- Ready?

- Here's the key, you'll be able to go from the balcony.

Remember, don't let them find anything.

Don't be afraid, my son.

What?

Luigi, this is for Gino.

You should be brave now

that the time has come.

That night, Monique was

going to her grandmother's.

She would have come home soon if

nothing had happened on the way.

I went into my kitchen and suddenly

thought how long she'd been gone.

So I went out to look for Monique.

I looked for the whole night.

It was morning when I found her.

I shook her.

She was only a little

girl, 12 years old.

I want to tell everyone

about this for justice.

You should make a good example of him.

I hope that other mothers will never have

to go through this painful experience.

You have our sympathies

for your suffering, madame.

Any further questions?

Next witness.

Dr Detouche.

Proceed with your statement.

I was his doctor.

He had a condition that was

life-threatening if not treated.

Do you swear to tell the truth...

the whole truth, and nothing

but the truth, so help you god.

I do.

You were administering the accussed

during the time of the illness?

Yes, I talked to him twice.

I was touched by his current situation.

He is now aware of the whole situation and

tension among the people and has remorse.

He has since had a brain tumour removed.

It's really about the

implementation of a process.

That is more effective

than the use of violence.

But criminal law experts who have

examined him have discussed these things.

It simply does not work.

And they replied that this

is a very strange notion.

Some people are temporarily

unable to understand these points.

Since we are not aware of them.

But they haven't seen other people

experience the fear of death.

If they were punished in this state,

I think they would soon understand.

Those people are always only

about research and theory.

They simply do not have practical experience,

and I feel if they had some experience.

Then they would understand the

implementation of this program.

If it's necessary to experience

the process of the death penalty.

That's transforming people

into criminals, not their victims.

So they will never understand.

Try to give an example.

If your child was murdered

it would cause you much pain.

An example.

There's no clear

example, they're guilty.

Your honour, I trust my patients.

Their fear of death is punishment

enough, they will not forget.

After they have had a

taste of such experience.

They will be dissuaded

from reoffending.

If you were in prison and sentenced

to death, you would have nothing.

Your ideas limited by words.

After 15 years of psychological research,

I can fully understand their feelings.

If they are given a second

chance I think they would reform.

Some criminals will give

justice a chance to reform them.

One might take it into consideration, one would

make a decision, for one it wouldn't work.

They don't have so

much practice as you do.

Your honour, if you want to

guarantee your children's safety.

You would be worried all the

time about their wellbeing.

You would be watching them all day, in control

of them, not allowing them to do anything.

You wouldn't let them go, so

they're the same as prisoners.

Absolute and effective administration of

justice is able to prevent all of this.

Obviously, medicine can not provide the same

effective judicial means of prevention.

Why not?

Sentence on this is pending.

You speak to us about the

possibility of such an association.

I have a question.

I would like to ask you

how can we link these two.

It's very simple, Mr President.

If you think this is a dangerous person.

There is no free will to resist

them, if they can live comfortably.

They will truly know how to

be able to behave correctly.

Crime will be removed from the criminal.

Clear the aisle.

Everybody leave the aisle.

Good evening, Rene.

You're still angry with me?

I've brought you some company.

Well, come in.

This is your room.

Take a seat.

Now we have to change these

instruments of torture here.

Do you understand?

If you don't understand, you

can go ask your companion.

He came here earlier on, and

so is arranged to live with you.

He'll consider questions

if you know nothing.

Leave you to it.

Haven't I seen you?

I was a bit fat then.

What happened to you?

Nothing, nothing, just like you.

Regardless of your mental health,

the circumstances are very dangerous.

In the evening they

take off their shoes.

And stand behind that door.

Just like that.

They will come in without

a sound and take you away.

Your lawyer, Le Guen.

Good evening, Le Guen.
