Dante s Inferno Animated

en
00:00:39 At the midpoint on the journey of life,
00:00:41 I found myself in a dark forest,
00:00:44 for the clear path was lost.
00:00:47 I cannot well recount
00:00:50 so long had it been
00:00:55 How shall I say what a dreary
00:00:59 So bitter to endurw that death itself
00:01:07 Several times upon my journey home,
00:01:09 I had sensed an unseen rider
00:01:12 Yet, when I approached, the rider vanished,
00:01:17 leaving no trace.
00:01:20 I feared this figure as an evil omen.
00:01:23 All my life I've known such signs
00:01:32 And lo, at the rise of the hill,
00:01:35 all teeth and fury.
00:01:38 At the sight of these beasts,
00:01:41 I sensed danger not for myself,
00:01:47 Away, demon!
00:01:59 I drove my steed on,
00:02:03 And Beatrice... nothing in this world
00:02:08 You were right, Dante.
00:02:09 Truly this is a divine place.
00:02:13 Beatrice, will you take my hand in marriage,
00:02:16 under God and all that is holy?
00:02:19 Dante, I will not marry you
00:02:24 Jerusalem must be made Christian
00:02:27 God is with us. We cannot fail.
00:02:31 Through three years of war and horror,
00:02:34 my love for Beatrice
00:02:40 As I came upon the family estate,
00:02:42 I found all unnaturally dark and still.
00:02:50 Fearing the dreaded omens, I entered.
00:03:05 The servants. All butchered.
00:03:18 Father. Oh, Father.
00:03:22 Beatrice! Lord, let her be alive!
00:03:28 In the name of God.
00:03:33 Where is...
00:03:35 Oh, no. No.
00:03:37 Beloved, are you all right?
00:03:43 Beatrice.
00:03:45 Is it you or a dream?
00:03:50 Who did this to you?
00:03:51 I know not.
00:03:53 A stranger. A foreigner.
00:03:58 Do you remember that night
00:04:03 What we said?
00:04:04 I remember.
00:04:05 Did you betray me?
00:04:12 Never.
00:04:23 I never should have left your side.
00:04:25 Forgive me.
00:04:31 What?
00:04:37 Do my eyes deceive me?
00:04:40 Fear not for me, my love.
00:04:45 I knew you would.
00:04:51 No! Wait! Come back to me!
00:04:57 What is this?
00:05:03 God in Heaven!
00:05:04 What? Dante?
00:05:06 She is mine.
00:05:09 No!
00:05:11 I have come to take
00:05:15 a soul meant for Heaven.
00:05:20 It can't be true.
00:05:21 Dante would never betray me.
00:05:25 Beatrice!
00:05:26 Release her, devil!
00:05:39 Dante, help me!
00:05:42 No!
00:05:53 This will not stop me!
00:06:03 No!
00:06:14 What?
00:06:16 No!
00:06:18 God, give me strength!
00:06:23 Come with me, mortal,
00:06:27 Dante, don't let him take me!
00:06:31 Beatrice!
00:06:37 You will not keep me from my beloved!
00:06:48 Dante, you lied to me! I trusted you!
00:06:52 You've got to save me! Dante!
00:07:00 I'm coming for you!
00:07:03 Beatrice! No!
00:07:15 - Martyr.
00:07:18 - Martyr.
00:07:21 You lost her.
00:07:22 Never will you know her flesh again.
00:07:25 Never will you know her love.
00:07:30 Her sin.
00:07:31 - Martyr. Martyr.
00:07:33 - Her desire.
00:07:36 - Your sins.
00:07:40 Your sins.
00:07:42 Never will you know her flesh.
00:07:44 You are bound.
00:07:47 - Martyr.
00:07:50 - Martyr.
00:07:54 Why, God?
00:07:59 It is not the Lord that brought you
00:08:05 What are you? Shade or living man?
00:08:08 Not man, though once I was.
00:08:11 I lived under Augustus in the time
00:08:15 Are you not Virgil, glory of the poets?
00:08:18 He who wrote the Aeneid,
00:08:21 Why do you seek such woe, Dante?
00:08:23 I seek only my beloved Beatrice
00:08:26 But I cannot open these accursed gates!
00:08:31 Have you lost all faith in God, O man?
00:08:34 Has the way been so obscured?
00:08:39 Heavenly Father,
00:08:42 please let it be Beatrice.
00:08:48 Help! Help!
00:08:57 Dante, if you broke your promise to me,
00:09:02 Are you prepared to be judged in this place?
00:09:06 Do you think you are without sin?
00:09:10 Please, don't let him take me!
00:09:12 Beatrice. Beatrice!
00:09:51 What did Beatrice do
00:09:54 She made a wager with Lucifer
00:09:58 She lost.
00:09:59 Wager. What wager?
00:10:01 Lucifer bet that you would betray her love.
00:10:04 I never betrayed her.
00:10:06 You only deceive yourself, mortal.
00:10:09 By all that is holy, I vow to forsake
00:10:14 until I return from this noble crusade.
00:10:16 I gave myself to you because I know
00:10:22 And when I return, we shall be married.
00:10:25 And live to grow old and see
00:10:33 I love you more than Heaven itself.
00:10:39 - Take this.
00:10:41 this has been in your family
00:10:44 It is a true relic
00:10:46 said to contain a thorn
00:10:49 Bring it back to me.
00:10:55 Great Virgil, lead me into the Inferno.
00:10:58 I beg of you, please!
00:11:00 I must save Beatrice
00:11:04 I will guide you, but you must put aside
00:11:09 and gather your soul against all fear.
00:11:13 I fear nothing.
00:11:15 Then proceed.
00:11:22 Charon will carry us
00:11:27 Nine circles comprise the Inferno,
00:11:29 with Lucifer residing in the lowest.
00:11:32 Horrifying, yes.
00:11:34 There are more damned in Hell...
00:11:36 than liberated in Paradise.
00:11:39 I can see their sins in life.
00:11:45 Charon's boat has grown wide
00:11:48 He has had to compensate
00:11:52 Through me the way to the city of woe.
00:11:56 Through me the way to everlasting pain.
00:12:00 I don't like the look of this.
00:12:01 Now shall I ferry you into the fire,
00:12:05 the cold and the everlasting darkness.
00:12:08 Abandon hope,
00:12:12 How could God allow this?
00:12:14 God allowed free will, even for his angels.
00:12:18 It was Lucifer that devised such torment.
00:12:21 Mercenaries of Florentina,
00:12:24 in payment for reclaiming
00:12:26 your Immaculate Father hereby
00:12:32 Go with grace.
00:12:37 Praise God.
00:12:40 Do you think a priest
00:12:43 Can he truly absolve us of sins so easily?
00:12:45 Of course, Francesco.
00:12:47 Why would you doubt the Church?
00:12:51 How soon until you leave?
00:12:53 Tomorrow, before dawn.
00:12:55 Dante, promise to watch over my brother.
00:12:59 Beatrice, I'm no child.
00:13:02 No harm will come to him, my love.
00:13:04 I'll protect him as if he were my own.
00:13:08 You who are living,
00:13:11 be gone from those who are dead.
00:13:14 I will not part, Charon!
00:13:16 I must cross!
00:13:19 I give you my soul to find Beatrice!
00:13:21 It belongs to us already, mortal.
00:14:12 Your will is nothing, mortal.
00:14:15 You will never traverse the circles of Hell.
00:14:21 Take me to Beatrice, demon!
00:14:57 Virgil, where did you disappear to?
00:14:59 I am pure spirit, Dante.
00:15:01 I cannot help you fight your enemies.
00:15:30 Dante! Can you hear me?
00:15:35 Can anyone hear me?
00:15:43 Dante?
00:15:45 Thank God.
00:15:48 Dante?
00:15:50 Beatrice, my love.
00:15:53 Is... Is that you?
00:16:01 No! Dante!
00:16:03 No, stop! Stop, Dante!
00:16:17 What's happening?
00:16:20 How many ways can a man die?
00:16:23 No!
00:16:24 Come to me, Beatrice.
00:16:27 - I want to admire you.
00:16:31 There is not only suffering
00:16:36 There are untold pleasures here,
00:16:39 pleasures your human senses
00:16:45 Never!
00:17:00 There is nothing you can do
00:17:06 What you perceive of me is a literal shadow
00:17:12 but you...
00:17:16 you can die a thousand deaths by my will.
00:17:29 What?
00:17:34 Think of the tortures I can create
00:17:37 for such a pure, delicate, angelic soul.
00:17:49 Tell me more about your life on Earth,
00:17:52 I know your deeds,
00:17:54 Publius Vergilius Maro was my name.
00:17:57 I was the son of a commoner,
00:17:59 and though I died a dozen years
00:18:03 I foretold his coming in my works.
00:18:05 What is this place, Virgil?
00:18:08 The first circle of the Inferno, Limbo.
00:18:12 Here suffer those that did not sin,
00:18:14 yet did not have the required faith.
00:18:17 This is the realm where virtuous pagans
00:18:29 A child? Here?
00:18:32 How can this be?
00:18:35 Dearest Dante.
00:18:37 This is the fourth letter I have written
00:18:42 I am five months with child.
00:18:46 I fear telling your father
00:18:50 I do not know how much longer
00:18:54 All I ask is that you return to me soon.
00:18:57 Leave this terrible crusade,
00:19:01 and we... we can be married.
00:19:13 My lady, what is it?
00:19:15 The baby.
00:19:31 This is my son.
00:19:40 Oh, Beatrice, I didn't know.
00:19:44 Come. Quickly, Dante.
00:19:51 What madness is this?
00:20:11 Lord, too many.
00:20:22 Virgil. Virgil!
00:20:23 In here, Dante. Hurry.
00:20:44 What is that sound?
00:20:47 No.
00:20:57 They are familiar to me.
00:20:59 The great rulers and philosophers
00:21:03 Is that not Hector and Electra?
00:21:06 Caesar and King Latinus?
00:21:07 And do not forget Plato,
00:21:10 I have never agreed to such terms.
00:21:12 I say that God exists in the realm of ideas,
00:21:17 Plato, there is only one philosophy
00:21:23 Do not look for liberation here, old friend.
00:21:28 - Do you know this shade?
00:21:31 a noble Kurdish sultan.
00:21:33 I fought his forces in the Crusades
00:21:43 Filthy heretic, Jerusalem is ours.
00:21:48 We will wash these holy lands
00:21:52 Father...
00:21:55 Mercy, noble knight. She's only a child.
00:21:58 Dante! Dante, the forces
00:22:02 Dante?
00:22:41 My God, what is it?
00:22:43 He is King Minos.
00:22:45 Once a king of Crete
00:22:47 before Daedalus
00:22:51 Now, Minos foreverjudges the damned,
00:22:55 sending them to their circle below.
00:22:59 - Through him...
00:23:00 ...all must pass.
00:23:02 Heretic.
00:23:05 Glutton.
00:23:08 Hoarder.
00:23:10 Suicide!
00:23:14 Who comes into my house of pain?
00:23:17 He who seeks Beatrice.
00:23:23 Turn back.
00:23:29 Not yet, O mortal.
00:23:32 With your permission or not,
00:23:36 You dare so speak
00:23:45 I dare.
00:24:15 I will judge you to
00:24:21 Lucifer shall devour you for eternity!
00:24:24 Silence, Minos. It is his fate to proceed.
00:25:02 Here you must descend.
00:25:09 The damned are trying to flee.
00:25:11 Lucifer will not be pleased.
00:25:15 Let him come.
00:25:18 then so can he.
00:25:42 What is this place?
00:25:44 This is the second circle,
00:25:47 To this torment are condemned
00:25:51 They are the great lustful of the world.
00:25:53 See there Semiramis and Ninus,
00:25:59 Helen of Troy and Paris.
00:26:01 The storms of lust forever rage
00:26:04 while passion inflames the heart.
00:26:09 Listen, on the wind.
00:26:12 - Dante, help me.
00:26:15 Please, Dante.
00:26:17 Dante.
00:26:19 - Beatrice!
00:26:22 Beatrice!
00:26:25 A new visitor arrives, sisters.
00:26:30 Come, embrace us, Dante.
00:26:34 We know what you want.
00:26:38 Unbearable lust.
00:26:42 No, let me pass.
00:26:46 If you won't have us, we shall have you!
00:27:21 Dante, how could you let this happen?
00:27:23 How could you betray me?
00:27:25 No, Beatrice. I swear.
00:27:27 What do you swear, Dante?
00:27:30 Do you want me to show her the truth?
00:27:33 Serpent. It's all lies.
00:27:37 I'll kill you!
00:27:40 You can hide from
00:27:50 What? King Richard wants us
00:27:55 That is his command?
00:27:57 He will negotiate their exchange
00:28:01 Negotiate with heretics?
00:28:04 Never! They deserve only damnation.
00:28:10 Get your hands off her.
00:28:14 Infidel scum. We'll show you not to defy us.
00:28:26 Good and noble knights, have mercy.
00:28:30 This prisoner only tried to save me
00:28:35 Please, sir, show compassion.
00:28:39 He is a heretic.
00:28:45 Kind lord, if you would show him mercy
00:28:49 perhaps I could give you comfort in return.
00:28:53 What comfort could you give
00:28:59 The nights here are lonely and cold,
00:29:03 even for a soldier of God.
00:29:06 Perhaps I could warm thee.
00:29:08 Dante, do not commit this wicked sin.
00:29:11 How is it a sin if I am already absolved?
00:29:13 Guards, hold.
00:29:22 Thank you, Lord. You are kind.
00:29:25 I could see it in your eyes.
00:29:27 And your promise of comfort?
00:29:38 How could you do that to me...
00:29:41 to us?
00:29:43 I was weak. The war changed me.
00:29:46 You know who I am inside.
00:29:50 Does she know you, Dante,
00:29:53 or did the Crusades show her your true self?
00:29:57 Beatrice! Forgive me!
00:30:01 Please forgive me.
00:30:06 No, it's not true.
00:30:11 Dante!
00:30:13 What did I say?
00:30:15 Even the purest of souls
00:30:18 Dante is not the man you once knew.
00:30:22 You did this to him.
00:30:27 I've had no need to influence humanity
00:30:31 for many millennia, my dear.
00:30:33 I simply introduced sin.
00:30:37 Man is the one who has spread it
00:30:42 cultivating it, empowering it.
00:30:58 It is not our fault, none of it.
00:31:01 Man is good.
00:31:03 No, you don't understand.
00:31:06 The Earth is another form of Hell,
00:31:10 and men are its demons.
00:31:19 I failed her, Virgil. I betrayed her.
00:31:23 I could blame the Crusades,
00:31:26 my own sin.
00:31:28 Have you considered she is not
00:31:34 I seek only my beloved Beatrice,
00:31:37 and nothing more.
00:31:41 It is Cerberus,
00:31:42 guardian of the third circle, Gluttony.
00:32:00 That is the foulest fate
00:32:04 And it is your fate as well,
00:32:08 lies inside of Cerberus's body.
00:32:11 Inside? Good Lord, isn't there
00:32:16 No, not if you wish to reach fair Beatrice.
00:32:20 So be it! For her I will conquer even this.
00:32:23 Face me, wretched creature!
00:32:29 Release me, demon!
00:32:50 Hell can get no more horrible
00:32:54 I find this circle most unpleasant.
00:32:57 You're a shade.
00:33:00 Such a fate. Look at them all.
00:33:02 How could such harmless sin
00:33:06 The gluttons -
00:33:10 in death they shall be denied for eternity.
00:33:13 Dante. Do you remember me, Dante?
00:33:16 I too am from Florence.
00:33:20 I do not know you, spirit.
00:33:22 You know me. I am Ciacco.
00:33:25 Gluttony was my offense,
00:33:27 and here I remain
00:33:31 Can you help me,
00:33:34 Please, please.
00:33:36 Your suffering weighs heavy
00:33:55 Virgil, what's happening?
00:33:56 How dare you free the damned?
00:34:00 They deserve torment for wasting
00:34:05 And Beatrice? Does she deserve torment?
00:34:08 She is the exception.
00:34:10 A pure soul to remind me
00:34:14 to remind me of the light of my father.
00:34:19 But let me ask you, Dante,
00:34:22 what of your father?
00:34:26 Beatrice, you must eat.
00:34:29 I have no appetite.
00:34:31 I know you miss my son,
00:34:33 but you must keep up
00:34:36 You're nothing but bone.
00:34:39 It's unappealing for a lady.
00:34:44 Beatrice, what have you done to yourself?
00:34:51 It's just another memory, Dante.
00:34:55 Your father's memory.
00:34:58 - My father?
00:35:02 Would you like to visit him?
00:35:14 Do these tortures never end?
00:35:19 Virgil, Beatrice is not here.
00:35:21 We must escape this beast!
00:35:29 What is this?
00:35:32 Cerberus's black heart.
00:36:06 Beatrice!
00:36:38 More gold than I've ever laid eyes upon.
00:36:41 What could one man do
00:36:45 This is the fourth circle - Grwed.
00:37:06 All the Earth's treasure
00:37:10 cannot give relief to these weary souls.
00:37:19 What a mockery is made
00:37:23 that makes so short a life.
00:37:25 These damned remind me of my father.
00:37:36 48, 49, 50, 51...
00:37:40 What? Where are my last three coins?
00:37:44 Dante?
00:37:47 Dante!
00:37:50 Bella!
00:37:54 Yes, husband.
00:37:55 I'm short three crowns.
00:37:58 Are you stealing from me, woman?
00:38:01 No, Alighiero,
00:38:06 Liar!
00:38:12 I knew I'd have to watch you.
00:38:14 Now, tell me where
00:38:16 before I throttle you dead.
00:38:22 Don't hit her! Mother!
00:38:38 Can you believe that in my youth
00:38:41 But all I ever knew was violence.
00:38:44 And what became of your mother?
00:38:46 She died of a fever a year later.
00:38:48 It was sudden and terrible.
00:38:52 There is no room to pity the dead here, son.
00:38:56 Lucifer did not lie, but then again
00:39:01 You think you're a greater man than me?
00:39:04 That you're above reproach for your sins?
00:39:07 I took up the Crusade.
00:39:11 And you actually believed him?
00:39:14 No man can absolve you of your sins,
00:39:17 but some men can be rewarded in Hell.
00:39:31 Lucifer offered me a thousand years
00:39:34 and endless gold
00:39:39 And where will you spend this gold, Father?
00:39:41 Let me pass. I only seek Beatrice.
00:39:49 So be it.
00:40:07 I always despised you.
00:40:11 But you became me, son.
00:40:13 You belong here. You always have.
00:40:21 So I can be damned in Hell with you?
00:40:33 It's time to claim my prize, boy.
00:40:37 Then claim it.
00:40:54 You want gold, Father?
00:40:57 It's yours.
00:41:04 I cannot go on.
00:41:07 You must, Dante.
00:41:09 Steel yourself.
00:41:12 How do I know you're not
00:41:17 You could be luring me
00:41:20 Another trick, another deception.
00:41:22 Search inside yourself.
00:41:24 You know I was sent here from on high.
00:41:27 Forgive me, Virgil.
00:41:29 This place has affected my mind.
00:41:39 Please, Lord.
00:41:43 Save me from this horrible torment.
00:41:46 Please, I beg of you.
00:41:53 My God.
00:41:55 I have heard your prayers,
00:41:59 and I have come for you.
00:42:03 There is no escape, little soul.
00:42:06 Your prayers are worthless here.
00:42:20 Rejoice, child,
00:42:22 for you are about to be granted
00:42:28 I am making you my bride.
00:42:32 You will become the Queen of Hell.
00:42:37 Are you not pleased?
00:42:51 I cannot stand this wretched place.
00:42:55 For we are in the fifth circle, Anger.
00:42:58 The very air reeks of fury.
00:43:01 Watch your ankles.
00:43:08 More food! We're starving!
00:43:14 We need more food.
00:43:18 We're doing the best we can.
00:43:21 There isn't enough food to go around.
00:43:24 There is nothing we can do.
00:43:27 The granaries are ablaze.
00:43:29 We barely have enough rations
00:43:31 Then I'm leaving this post. I will not
00:43:35 You can't do that, Dante.
00:43:37 We came here to kill these heretics,
00:43:40 We came to reclaim the Holy Land.
00:43:43 Saladin took the city last year
00:43:47 We should do the same.
00:43:48 Since when arw herwtics
00:43:51 Enough. Enough!
00:44:03 Keep your mind, Dante.
00:44:09 See the souls over whom
00:44:13 In the black sludge of the River Styx
00:44:18 The fools. It is here we must cross.
00:44:30 We travel in that?
00:44:32 Perhaps we would be safer swimming.
00:44:41 I suppose it doesn't get much sturdier.
00:44:44 Is this a friend of yours, great poet?
00:44:47 Phlegias is the guardian of the Styx.
00:44:50 He was the son of Ares
00:44:53 Hold on.
00:44:57 The angry souls know no end to their fury.
00:45:00 Who are you that comes here
00:45:05 If I come, I do not remain.
00:45:07 But I know you, hell dog, filthy as you are.
00:45:11 You were Filippo Argenti in life.
00:45:13 Come down, Dante,
00:45:17 Let the damned rip you to shreds, wretch.
00:45:40 Now, my son, the City of Dis draws near,
00:45:43 housing its solemn citizens within.
00:45:48 Damned of Dis rejoice,
00:45:53 is betrothing the pure soul, Beatrice.
00:45:57 Truly this will be a marriage
00:46:02 Hurry, Phlegias! Run!
00:46:12 Beatrice!
00:46:17 Outcasts of Heaven, race despised,
00:46:21 why do you rail against a will
00:46:26 Dante?
00:46:49 He has taken her into the tombs.
00:46:57 Gone. Why does he do this?
00:47:03 Perhaps Lucifer wants your soul
00:47:06 He's luring us to the ninth circle.
00:47:10 - What is this place?
00:47:14 Here in the sixth circle
00:47:17 burning in eternal fire.
00:47:21 O Tuscan, who walks through this place
00:47:26 know that I am Farinata.
00:47:29 Farinata, another hated man in life.
00:47:34 Know this.
00:47:36 The damned can foresee the future
00:47:40 Your future, Dante,
00:47:46 Beatrice will marry Lucifer
00:47:50 and you will be damned with us forever.
00:48:04 I never liked him.
00:48:07 What's happening?
00:48:08 The harrowing of Hell.
00:48:10 Christ's death forever quakes this circle.
00:48:13 We must hurry.
00:48:17 Let me go. What do you want from me?
00:48:20 I have taken countless brides
00:48:24 Cleopatra, Salome, Helen of Troy.
00:48:28 But, unlike them,
00:48:34 I will never succumb to you.
00:48:36 Kill me again and again,
00:48:37 slit my throat, tear me to pieces,
00:48:46 Yes, such passion.
00:48:48 You have a fire inside you.
00:48:51 After we are properly married,
00:48:53 you will give me a brood
00:48:57 You will be birthing my children
00:49:04 Virgil, do you hear...
00:49:14 Who is this new monster?
00:49:18 The minotaur guards passage
00:49:21 Be cautious, Dante.
00:49:24 How dare you threaten us?
00:49:26 Do you think he is the duke of Athens
00:49:29 Off with you.
00:49:33 Virgil, I think you've made him angry.
00:49:35 Now, while he is blind with rage.
00:49:37 Hold fast. Steady.
00:49:39 Now move!
00:49:49 You have many surprises, poet.
00:49:51 Perhaps you would have made
00:49:55 It was nothing. He was all horn, no brains.
00:50:07 This circle is reserved for the violent.
00:50:10 Those who have done violence
00:50:12 forever boil in the blood they have shed.
00:50:16 How shall we cross?
00:50:18 It's impossible.
00:50:24 You summoned me, great Virgil.
00:50:26 Greetings, Nessus.
00:50:28 We need passage across the bloody
00:50:32 Of course. Climb and hold on tightly.
00:50:37 The river is treacherous.
00:50:41 Here is Alexander, Dionysius, Attila,
00:50:45 and countless others.
00:50:47 The damned here
00:50:51 These were the kings of bloodshed
00:51:12 Be wary of the next passage, friends.
00:51:15 My thanks, Nessus.
00:51:17 Good luck to you, mortal soul.
00:51:23 We must hurry. Beatrice can wait no longer.
00:51:30 This is no forest.
00:51:33 Yes, they are those who did violence
00:51:37 - This is the wood of suicide.
00:51:40 - No, my friend! Turn back!
00:51:42 Come to me, Dante.
00:51:45 Come to me.
00:51:48 Why do you break me?
00:51:52 Mother?
00:51:54 Yes, son.
00:51:55 I too am among the damned.
00:51:58 But how can this be?
00:52:01 When a soul takes its own life,
00:52:03 Minos judges it to this circle.
00:52:06 Here it sprouts, shoots up like a sapling.
00:52:09 No body, only pain.
00:52:11 No, Mother, you don't belong here.
00:52:15 You died of fever.
00:52:17 Her heart gave out from the fever.
00:52:20 She was just too fragile.
00:52:22 Where is she now, Father?
00:52:24 In Paradise, son,
00:52:30 I despised your father's cruelty,
00:52:33 but I was too weak to defy him.
00:52:36 And so, I...
00:52:38 I took my...
00:52:41 You learned your father's ways,
00:52:46 You can redeem yourself.
00:52:49 Beatrice was all I had.
00:52:53 The pain you endure purifies you, son.
00:52:57 Heed my words. You must look
00:53:04 And what of you?
00:53:06 Only the living can redeem themselves.
00:53:11 This is too cruel a punishment
00:53:15 God must know this is not your fault.
00:53:27 My soul belongs to God now, son.
00:53:47 We are still in the seventh circle?
00:53:50 Yes, the Abominable Sands.
00:53:52 It is here the damned
00:54:00 We came here to kill these heretics.
00:54:03 We came to reclaim the Holy Land.
00:54:06 Saladin took the city last year and spared
00:54:10 Since when arw herwtics
00:54:14 Enough. Enough!
00:54:17 Dante, no!
00:54:32 Fight with me, Crusaders.
00:54:34 Spill the blood of these heathens.
00:54:36 Their souls are already lost.
00:54:40 Dante, what have you done?
00:55:08 Crusaders? Herw?
00:55:10 Why are you being punished?
00:55:12 Our cause was holy.
00:55:18 The bishop lied, did he not, brother?
00:55:23 Francesco, not you too.
00:55:26 God never condones violence of any kind.
00:55:29 There was no holy war.
00:55:32 The priests lied.
00:55:34 Of all people, how could you be here?
00:55:38 It was you! You did this to me!
00:55:40 No, no, no, listen.
00:55:42 You don't deserve the life given to you,
00:55:46 you don't deserve Beatrice,
00:55:49 and now you will join us here forever
00:55:59 Brother.
00:56:06 I am not your brother.
00:56:08 You're an animal, Dante.
00:56:14 I will not let you have her.
00:56:31 You know I'm the better swordsman, Dante.
00:56:55 It's over. Justice is inevitable.
00:57:00 Not yet.
00:57:39 He can rest for a while,
00:57:41 but he is forever bound here
00:57:47 He was a good man.
00:57:49 He doesn't deserve such suffering.
00:57:52 Heavenly Father,
00:57:56 into your divine Paradise.
00:58:01 What?
00:58:04 Pray for your own soul, Dante,
00:58:07 for it will freeze with me forever
00:58:12 I'll kill you in your own circle, Devil.
00:58:14 Yes, a contest.
00:58:17 Hurry, Dante. Your beloved Beatrice
00:58:34 This is the union
00:58:49 Another beast I must slay?
00:58:52 No, Dante. Geryon is our passage
00:58:57 Climb inside. And be wary - it bites.
00:59:11 My thanks, Geryon.
00:59:13 This way, Dante.
00:59:17 We are in the circle of Fraud
00:59:19 which one commits
00:59:26 You must travel these ten malebolge alone.
00:59:29 And quickly - Beatrice is soon to wed.
00:59:32 Alone? What of you, great poet?
00:59:35 I will not be far, believe me.
00:59:37 You have proven yourself worthy.
00:59:39 Now hurry, Dante,
00:59:46 I traveled on alone,
00:59:50 and as I ran I was overwhelmed
00:59:53 as if every malebolge
00:59:56 I felt my mind weakening with every step,
00:59:59 and yet I would not cease.
01:00:06 Release that one.
01:00:11 My ransom?
01:00:13 No. No, you didn't...
01:00:16 You defiled yourself with him, didn't you?
01:00:20 Didn't you? You whore.
01:00:23 You have shamed me.
01:00:25 You are not my wife, do you hear?
01:00:26 Filthy whore. Whore!
01:00:31 I'll kill you. You bastard dog,
01:00:35 I swear I'll kill you.
01:00:39 You bastard. You'll see everyone
01:00:44 Dead, dead!
01:00:47 No, it can't be.
01:01:01 I have come for the woman.
01:01:03 No!
01:01:08 Leave her alone. She's innocent.
01:01:11 Run, Beatrice, run!
01:01:14 Get out of my house, filthy dog.
01:01:25 - Get away from me!
01:01:28 Stay back.
01:01:32 No!
01:01:47 Vengeance is finally mine.
01:01:54 It was me. Beatrice's death.
01:01:58 They were all murdered because of me.
01:02:00 At last, Dante, now you both see the truth.
01:02:05 You are the true cause of
01:02:08 and the damnation of so many others.
01:02:12 How could you have done such evil to me?
01:02:14 Tear the heart from my chest,
01:02:19 These sins are my own.
01:02:22 You have no right to Beatrice.
01:02:24 Relinquish her.
01:02:32 Never! Dwellers, night fiends,
01:02:35 and torturers of the pit,
01:02:37 strip the flesh from the mortal's bones.
01:02:41 Lucifer!
01:02:57 Beatrice, stop!
01:03:01 I thought I knew many things.
01:03:03 I thought love was real,
01:03:08 There is nothing left for me
01:03:17 Yes, my love.
01:03:18 In union, all of Hell's power will be yours.
01:03:22 Beatrice, don't do it!
01:03:28 When you had your way with that girl,
01:03:32 It was all because of you.
01:03:36 Beatrice!
01:03:42 No!
01:03:44 No, no.
01:03:48 The faithful has lost her faith.
01:03:52 The incorruptible
01:03:55 The true innocent has given way
01:04:00 like all the rest before her.
01:04:03 Who can now deny me my rights?
01:04:17 I will leave you with my consort.
01:04:21 She has so much to show you.
01:04:35 This is where you belong, Dante.
01:04:38 You are the greatest fraud of all.
01:04:41 You've lied to me, deceived me,
01:04:44 and for that you shall suffer.
01:04:49 Beatrice, don't do this.
01:04:59 You never loved me.
01:05:00 It was all a lie, all of it...
01:05:03 our whole life!
01:05:11 Beatrice, listen to me.
01:05:15 You mean nothing to me.
01:05:18 But I have faced my sins.
01:05:23 Faced your sins? Look down, Dante.
01:05:26 Look deep into the ninth circle...
01:05:32 the circle of traitors.
01:05:41 God in Heaven, what happened?
01:05:44 Who is responsible
01:05:50 Take care of my sister.
01:05:56 Hang him, and prepare to march tonight.
01:06:00 When the noble Saladin
01:06:06 he will bring forth the very forces of Hell.
01:06:10 Take care of Beatrice.
01:06:12 Dante, protect her with your life.
01:06:21 Beatrice, I'm coming home.
01:06:29 I wanted nothing more
01:06:33 I will never forgive
01:06:37 But while I live, I can absolve you.
01:06:40 Forgive me, and free yourself.
01:06:45 My cross.
01:06:47 I brought it back to you.
01:06:49 Accept again the love of God.
01:07:06 Dante.
01:07:13 I forgive you.
01:07:15 I never wanted any harm to come to you.
01:07:28 You have done well, my friend.
01:07:31 And though you may not
01:07:34 you have perhaps saved far more
01:07:43 Wait. I can't be separated from her now.
01:07:47 You cannot claim
01:07:51 You have to face the true enemy,
01:07:56 the circle of traitors.
01:07:58 There, you must face the king of traitors,
01:08:03 He guards your only escape
01:08:07 We shall be reunited one day. I promise.
01:08:12 Goodbye, my love.
01:08:17 This last trial is for you to face alone.
01:08:21 Godspeed, my friend.
01:08:24 Very well. I am coming for you, Lucifer.
01:08:28 I will make you pay for her suffering.
01:08:32 I am coming for you.
01:08:46 I fell, not into fire,
01:08:51 but into a vast, frozen wasteland.
01:08:56 The very center of Hell,
01:09:00 furthest place in all of creation
01:09:03 from the divine light of God.
01:09:07 Treachery, the ninth circle
01:09:19 I walked through the darkness,
01:09:27 All about me were forsaken,
01:09:30 frozen souls of deceivers and traitors.
01:09:41 Who are you to walk the paths of Hell
01:09:46 Damned soul, where is Lucifer?
01:09:49 Tell me, before I too freeze
01:09:52 Wipe the icy tears from my eyes,
01:10:08 The Lord of Hell dwells
01:10:12 Past the storms of Ptolomea,
01:10:14 deep in the center pit of Judecca,
01:10:17 there his icy halls are well protected,
01:10:19 and none but the mightiest
01:10:23 But can you believe me?
01:10:26 Can you believe a traitor?
01:10:33 Long did I wander
01:10:41 Past the frozen giants of legend...
01:10:43 Nimrod, Ephialtes and Antaeus.
01:10:49 I was battered by a frigid wind
01:10:52 that was like the beating
01:11:00 Finally, after a seeming eternity,
01:11:04 I came to a passage blocked
01:11:12 Lucifer thinks he can block my way
01:11:15 He thinks he can stay my vengeance?
01:11:53 Welcome, great Dante.
01:11:56 Welcome to your final resting place,
01:12:00 the circle of traitors.
01:12:02 Lucifer, I have come to escape this hell
01:12:05 so that I may be reunited with my beloved,
01:12:08 but not before I rid the world
01:12:11 You will never see Beatrice again.
01:12:14 The path to Purgatory lies through me.
01:12:17 You are the warrior
01:12:21 a God who is the true evil.
01:12:24 His power wanes over the world.
01:12:27 Silence. Your lies
01:12:31 I will rend the very soul
01:12:35 Indignant fool.
01:12:37 Come, let me devour your soul
01:12:40 as I devoured Judas Iscariot.
01:12:43 You will remain in this pit
01:12:48 Never!
01:12:51 You are not invincible here.
01:12:54 You are just another demon
01:12:57 and, like any fallen, you can be destroyed.
01:13:02 You cannot destroy me!
01:13:22 What have you done to me?
01:13:34 I have slain you, great beast.
01:13:38 Victory is mine.
01:13:41 What's this?
01:13:53 New life writhes inside him.
01:13:55 No!
01:14:06 Thank you, Dante. I am very impressed.
01:14:09 Many have tried, but all have failed me.
01:14:13 Ulysses, Alexander, Attila, Lancelot...
01:14:16 Truly, you are the greatest
01:14:21 Minion? I do not serve you.
01:14:23 Speak without your forked tongue, serpent!
01:14:27 Do you not?
01:14:29 You freed me
01:14:33 I came only for Beatrice.
01:14:36 Beatrice? She was only bait.
01:14:39 It was you I wanted all along.
01:14:42 Don't you see?
01:14:46 only my shadow self allowed to roam free.
01:14:50 It took a mortal to release me -
01:14:55 No, it isn't true!
01:14:57 I defeated you before.
01:14:59 Show me the path from Hell,
01:15:03 Destroy an angel of God?
01:15:05 You arrogant gnat.
01:15:08 Such vanity, such pride.
01:15:10 I could have slain you
01:15:24 You worship God,
01:15:26 but it was He who created evil.
01:15:29 It was He who created me.
01:15:32 If you knew the true nature of God, Dante,
01:15:37 you too would rebel.
01:15:40 No!
01:15:41 You are nothing to me. A talking animal.
01:15:45 He made you in His image...
01:15:50 and I was to bow down to you?
01:16:08 I grow weary of this game.
01:16:41 Finally, I will reclaim
01:16:47 Behold, Dante.
01:16:52 where awaits your precious Beatrice.
01:16:55 But instead of you,
01:16:59 All the souls in Purgatory
01:17:04 And beyond Purgatory, Paradise itself.
01:17:10 I will plunge the cosmos into chaos,
01:17:13 and it is all your doing, Dante.
01:17:17 Because of you, God will finally
01:17:23 No, I cannot be the cause of this.
01:17:27 There is nothing you can do
01:17:31 No one can stop me.
01:17:34 One can.
01:17:40 Almighty God, forgive me
01:17:45 I forsake my escape.
01:17:50 I belong here, in Hell,
01:17:52 and accept my just damnation.
01:17:54 What are you doing?
01:17:57 A repentant soul in Judecca? Stop!
01:18:01 Do not utter a word!
01:18:03 But grant me the power
01:18:09 Stop. I command you.
01:18:12 No!
01:18:55 Purgatory.
01:19:22 Beatrice. I will come to you yet.
01:19:27 My love, I have forgiven you.
01:19:30 God will forgive you.
01:19:44 I fought across Earth and Hell
01:19:49 We were together,
01:19:54 neither damned nor saved.
01:19:57 I did not die, and I did not live.
