Resurreccion

---

INTRODUCTION:

He comes from Buenos Aires.

He is bringing the plague.

He claims for our help.

I feel this call, father, please.

No, your place is here,

not in Buenos Aires.

The Lord is asking me

to make this sacrifice, now.

And I'm an instrument of the lord.

What are you looking for

out there, Aparicio?

I know I have the strength to save them.

Save them? Whom?

Each hour that passes by is another body

dying without blessings.

Aren't we priests?

Aren't we here to save souls?

You are a deacon and your ordain

is in a few days.

-He showed it to me, father.

-Visions,

we should see to

what sort of need they answer.

Chapter I - PASSION.

Why do you neglect the entrance?

I don't know why you're here,

sir, you'd better go back.

A servant is telling me I can't

get into my own house?

I'm sorry, sir. I did not recognize you.

Believe me,

you wouldn't want to go in there.

Pardo.

Pardo!

Let's go, let's go, man!

Eugenio!

Pardo!

Out!

Out! I've got a gun!

It's uncle, mom! I told you I saw him.

Luca, it's me, Aparicio.

Aparicio.

What are you doing here?

I was heading

for Buenos Aires as a volunteer.

I thought I'd meet you there.

What's going on?

No one is going to spread

the disease to us.

Uncle, I want to leave this place.

Remedios.

What about Edgardo?

He left us.

The city was not ready

for so many immigrant plebeians.

He went to assist those people

instead of taking care of us.

Edgardo took an oath

on his profession, Luca.

He also took an oath to God

of taking care of us!

This fools' plague, he brought it home!

Three servants died and... a little girl.

He banished his family

and I punish him for that.

We live here now.

-This is a special circumstance.

-This is the devil's work!

There they were, all those bad people,

dancing in obscene parades.

No, Aparicio.

We're cursed!

This house is cursed!

No, mom! Mom, please,

I want to get out of here!

Go away! You're late!

-Lucia!

-Go away! Go away!

Luca!

Luca!

I'm willing to use it.

She told you to leave.

Quispe?

Sir?

This is a miracle!

Where's my brother,

who allows this madness?

Where is Edgardo?

Please, we don't have time to waste.

The master needs you more than ever.

-Why didn't anyone tell me about it?

-It was too fast, sir.

Nobody knows anything.

It started in January.

The outbreak spread

from the lower part of San Telmo,

from the immigrants' tenements

and nobody could control it.

Quickly, sir, before it's too late.

Those were very hard days.

Before running away,

several servants ransacked the house.

I felt compelled to leave

only one entrance.

And you?

Hey! Wait!

-Who are you?

-He is a stranger.

I don't know how he got in again.

He says the master called

for him, but it isn't true.

-I've just sent him out.

-Liar! You know me.

I've got to see him.

We cannot wait any longer.

Where do you think you're going?

Please, let me talk to him.

I worked with the doctor,

he'll recognize me.

This comes from the Paraguayan war.

-I can cure him.

-Yes?

And how are you going to cure him?

With this?

Gods do not exist.

Only the faith we put in them,

that makes the difference.

And that man has a faith problem.

There is always a scavenger ready

to take advantage of desperation.

You also have a problem of faith.

Take him out, Ernesto.

Out! Out!

Don't you touch me!

Don't let him fool you! He knows me!

He called me on his master's orders.

Ernesto, did you bring him?

It can be quite a shock to see him.

Your brother has changed a little.

Ernesto!

Only for you to know,

nobody is sure

how the contagion takes place.
