idiot!

Micaela!

Where did they go?

To get wood.

There's a place

close to the stream...

...with a lot of trees,

like outside.

- Around here?

- No, here. Up.

Up.

There. Close to

the snake mountain.

When will you take me

with you?

You know I can't.

Let's eat.

Thank you, Lord,

for this holy meal...

...that you've given us.

I hear you, God.

I achieve what you see.

I abide your mandate.

I follow all your laws.

Amen.

Give her to me!

Reach her!

Micaela!

What?

I want new leaves.

Leave them there.

If I ask for something,

will God grant it?

Only if you have

a lot of faith.

How does God know?

How does He know what?

That I have faith.

Come here.

See that outside?

Do you see the church?

The church is a gift

for God.

Everyday we build

another piece...

...and everyday we show

a bit more of our faith.

When it's done,

we'll call God with the bell.

He'll show us the light

and say we're forgiven.

Is God very mad?

To bed. Come on.

Micaela, let me brush

your hair!

Micaela!

Micaela!

What do you want?

A favor.

If I do this favor,

can I touch you?

No.

Okay! You can!

- What is it?

- A gift.

Place it in the church.

Not your hand.

I touched it.

I want your face.

If I touch Aureliano

he doesn't die, you know?

I'll talk to you later!

Give me health,

Holy Father...

...to go outside and play

in the tree with my brothers.

Come, son.

Get inside the trunk.

I'm sleepy.

Come on. Don't you want

to climb the tree?

We're getting out

of your room.

We're in the hall.

The kitchen still smells

of tortillas.

We're outside.

The sun is high.

Can you feel the heat?

We're heading

towards the tree.

I can see Bartolome

and Micaela from here.

They've climbed it.

What's wrong?

I want to go out for real.

First you have

to get better.

Dirt is bad for you.

I want to help

in the church!

You're helping us

by painting.

Let me go with you.

You stay in charge.

Give me that.

I'm not playing.

It's enough with one

taking the risk.

There's a war out there.

Get off your horse.

Just once, Father.

I want to see people.

I want a woman.

Get off.

You'll have your pick

when we finish the church...

...and people come

to pray here.

What are you doing?!

Put him down!

You'll hurt him!

Who took him out?

You know how it is.

I know he can't go out.

It was the four of us.

You are the eldest.

We were just playing.

You're not a child anymore.

- Can I see him?

- No.

Not right now.

He's too sick.

You'd better go.

God, the fault is mine.

Have mercy, God.

He has his life ahead.

The boy has been good.

The sin is mine.

The fault is mine.

Have mercy, dear God.

The boy has been good.

The boy...
