France is torn apart
by the Wars of Religion.
Catholics and Protestants
have been fighting for years.
King Charles IX always let his mother,
Catherine de Medici, rule.
But today the Protestant leader,
Admiral Coligny, has the King's trust:
switch over to the new religion.
To quench the hatred, Catherine
sets up an alliance for peace:
she marries her daughter Margot
to Henri of Navarre,
her Protestant cousin.
A political scheme
that everybody sees through.
Catholic Spain. He must be stopped.
August 1 8. A heat wave
has fallen over Paris.
Thousands of Protestants
have come for the wedding.
They are invading the inns
and the streets.
Their dark clothes and looks
provoke the Parisians,
already on the verge of rebellion.
Margot's wedding,
a symbol of peace and reconciliation,
will be used to set off the greatest
massacre in the history of France.
It's up there.
Ten coins for the room
and two for the horse.
Ten coins for that!
Find someplace else.
Paris is full. With the wedding,
the Protestants fell on us like the plague.
Who's that!
Who are you?
I'll kill him! Let me kill him!
Who are you?
- He just wants to sleep. Put it away.
- To sleep?
- Well?
- With me?
You'd rather sleep in the street
with your Protestant friends?
What? He's Protestant?
The dust bothers you?
You bother me.
I don't sleep with my brethren,
even less a Catholic!
There's more of us than you.
Get used to it!
There we go! Everybody in the same bed!
We're all friends now!
Unity is what they want,
so set the example!
- You came for the wedding?
- No.
That Margot is an evil whore.
Henri, King of Navarre, do you
take Marguerite de Valois
as your wife?
l do.
Marguerite de Valois,
do you take Henri de Bourbon
as your husband?
Marguerite,
do you take...
In the name of God, of the Son,
and his Holy Church,
I join you in holy matrimony.
By giving you my sister,
I give my heart to your faith.
Welcome to the family.
It's a peculiar one, but not that bad.
- Why not tonight?
- On his wedding night?
Precisely!
- He's a smelly goat.
- A wild boar!
I know it's a bad day
for you, but look:
My Catholics and my Protestants,
together in God's house!
Look, this wedding
will fix everything.
A wedding and a war!
That'll fix the French.
War?
Who talks of war today?
Look at him!
Coligny wants war. Look!
The King's against the war.
What do you know?
The King is Coligny's puppet.
Your power is finished!
Do not hate me yet.
They all hate me:
Your brothers, Guise...
Yours hated me.
Yours killed mine.
There was no proof.
- Go on, talk, but you're as scared as me.
- Scared of what?
Then why make you marry me?
For peace!
I don't have to sleep with you!
Do not come to my room tonight.
Charlotte!
I got you some red blush. A gift!
Who is he?
Armagnac.
He is 26. I heard he's a real fanatic.
A bit dark and skinny. Nice smile!
And this one?
Du Bartas. He came with Henri.
He's 1 9.
He lives with his sister!
Promising.
Nice eyes... But short legs.
Short legs?
Toss him away!
Cond. Royal prince. Which one is he?
That one.
He's a pervert.
He despises me.
- And hem?
- Henri?
What is he doing?
Still drinking? Laughing? What?
They're lining up to see him.
We'll have a haven in Navarre,
freedom of faith in the south,
the right to bear arms...
What can the King guarantee
when Catherine rules?
She doesn't rule any more. I do.
In three days you lead the army,
