Brotherhood of the Wolf Page #3

Synopsis: In 1765 something was stalking the mountains of central France. A 'beast' that pounced on humans and animals with terrible ferocity. Indeed they beast became so notorious that the King of France dispatched envoys to find out what was happening and to kill the creature. By the end, the Beast of Gevaudan had killed over 100 people, to this day, no one is entirely sure what it was, wolf? hyena? or something supernatural? Whatever it was, shepherds had the same life-expectancy as the red-suited guys in 'Star Trek'. The Beast is a popular myth in France, albeit one rooted firmly in reality; somewhat surprisingly it is little known to the outside world, and perhaps incredibly it has never been made into a movie. Until now... Based on the true story of the Beast of the Gevaudan that terrorized France in the mid-XVIIIth century, the movie aims to tell first and explain afterwards. In the first part, a special envoy of the King of France, altogether biologist, explorer and philosopher, arrives

The wolf, the wolf, the wolf"

Will I see you again soon?

Do you have any other mystical animals?

- U have an indisputable idea about me.

Allow me to change that.

- Try it.

Will you be attending Duhamel's battue?

- Yes.

I forbid you.

It's far too dangerous.

Obediance is the first virtue

of young women.

That young man is right.

It was on that day the biggest battue

ever to be held in Gevaudan took place.

The King promised 6.000 pound

to the one who killed the Beast.

Thousands of peasants and soldiers

joined the hunters.

During a few houres we forgot

we were hunting the Beast.

Everyone got a map and a place

to assemble. We start at 7.

Go ahead. My people have

other things to do.

Your generousity matches

your courage and...

Enough. I hope for your sake

that we catch it this time.

That's a certainty, Sir Duke.

What kind of racket is that?

A beautiful weapon, not?

I had it made by a weapons

blacksmith in Mende.

You understand that i wanted

it custom made.

Look...

...even in Paris you can't find

such bullets. I mould them myself.

Silver? You fear werewolves?

No, but i want to

leave a signature.

I'm a hunter.

Its a passion that has cost me a lot.

What happened to you?

I've learned that some predators

need more then a bullet.

There's more to curing gangreen

then a prayor.

Has a bear wounded you?

- A lion.

made me travel alot.

You dont know Africa, Fronsac.

Gentlemen... my daughter is to blame.

I'll bring her here.

Punish her accordingly.

A witch.

The daughter of the devil.

Look at her, a demon.

She's sick, she's not possessed.

She's not possessed.

The Evil. The sign of the devil.

Bewitched.

Make sure she doesnt swallow here tongue.

She will suffocate.

She's not possessed.

She's not possessed

- I know

Taxidermist, philosopher... And

even a healer.

Congratulations.

She didn't come.

Marquis.

And the people?

Supersticuous. Nothing different

than this place.

The Indians eat the heart of

their prey, for its strength.

Is that why they are savages?

In Africa they eat the

heart of their enemies.

Sir Duke, Jean-Francois,

move your people eastwards.

There you are.

- Your mother will be worried.

If i had listened to her,

i wouldn't be in the convent.

I know you dont believe me,

you're a freethinker.

Not when one is in love.

- Are you in love?

Ridiculous. We hardly know eachother.

You think that its about you?

Marianne.

She has to learn to ride like a woman.

Practice never hurt anyone.

My father never sees any evil.

- My son sees evil in everything.

People died here.

How do you know that?

I hear their screams.

- Mani, stop that.

He's right.

There was an army camp here.
