I would've seen it.

You're tired. Go sleep.

CAN YOU SEE US?

Celia?

Celia?

Throw more water on her.

What was the sign like?

Was it a light?

What was a light?

Celia saw the sign last night.

No, I didn't.

Dad said nothing was there.

See? It's hollow here.

It's not hollow,

it's just like the others.

A church has to last.

What did Celia see?

She woke up sick.

She's burning in fever.

What if it was the sign

and you didn't see it?

The sign?

I went back to the pond.

There's nothing there.

We have to wait.

We haven't been forgiven.

I'm dying.

Don't say that.

You just have to rest.

Go on. Sleep.

I believe you.

Aureliano, too.

Though the sign isn't

in the pond anymore...

...we're going to find it.

If God loves us,

it'll turn up again.

Micaela?

Micaela, we're leaving.

Do me a favor.

Put this in the church.

If I do you a favor,

can I touch you?

I'll be waiting for you.

Lord, if it's your will

to forgive us...

...guide our path

towards you.

Do you want to confess?

Whatever you have to say,

God already knows it.

Dad is wrong.

It's all in your head.

You're not sick.

You just have to will it.

Genaro.

Genaro, wake up.

The lights.

Long live Christ.

Where are you going?

San Isidro to pray

to the saint.

And the army?

What about the war?

It's over.

Everything's changed.

Do you have another candle?

I also have a sick girl

at home.

What's wrong?

Tell Him we did it.

HERE WE ARE:

DOES GOD SEE US?

Father!

Look, Father.

The sign.

We're forgiven.

Father!

They're leaving.

They're leaving.

Dad!

Look!

Genaro, let's go.

Not yet.

Where are you going?

We have to go back.

The war is over.

We have to tell dad.

Are you stupid, Aureliano?

Elias knew and he lied to us.

Grandma!

Grandma Elvira, open up!

It's me. Genaro.

Elias' son.

Elias.

My son.

You came back.

No, Grandma.

I'm your grandson.

Why do you say that?

I know you're my son.

Don't cry, Elvira.

No.

It's me.

Your son, Elias.

I came back.

What if Dad doesn't really know

the war is over?

I'll wait for you here.

Bring them all.

Convince Elias.

The sign was real.

Tell Celia.

Where were you?

Where's your brother?

Father, the war is over.

There are many churches.

We can go back.

Grandma Elvira also

wants you to go back.

We saw the sign.

We're forgiven.

You saw nothing.

Celia is dead.

Help me. We have

to clean your sister.

I'm sorry, Celia.

Looking for you at the pond

and not finding you...

...Celia died drowned.

She was only 27.

December, 1942.

What do you want

from us, Father?

Don't be an idiot.

I killed them.

It's my fault.

It's my fault.

You know that.

It's my fault.

You know that.

I killed them!
