- 2:52Speaker 5: is now in Syracuse. The local officials recognize him. He
- 2:57Speaker 5: is now their prize, and they offered him a very

- 4:27Speaker 6: I will consider Caravajo's predicament.
- 4:31Speaker 5: Thank you, but consider it as quickly as possible, Your holiness.
- 4:37Speaker 5: The Grand Master is not someone to tolerate a misunderstanding

- 43:34Speaker 1: to exterior beach day. Caravaggio, drenched in sweat but chilled
- 43:40Speaker 1: and shivering, walks along the white sands of the beach,
- 43:43Speaker 1: beneath the dreaded boiling sun. He looks out towards the sea,
- 43:47Speaker 1: mistakenly believing that what he sees is the Felucca, his
- 43:51Speaker 1: ship a short distance off the coast. He walks, trying
- 43:55Speaker 1: to keep pace with him. Exterior boat dock, Porte de Cola. Continuous,
- 44:03Speaker 1: Caravadiou reaches a small dark. A young boy is working
- 44:07Speaker 1: on the dark, looks up and sees Caravaggio. Caravajo steps
- 44:11Speaker 1: over to him, having difficulties speaking, breathing.
- 44:15Speaker 2: O what here is this place?
- 44:17Speaker 1: What evercorning h Caravajiou nods, then stumbles past the young boy,
- 44:23Speaker 1: realizing that Caravajiou is ill. The young boy rushes inland
- 44:27Speaker 1: for help. Exterior beach outside Porte de Cola continues. Caravadiou
- 44:35Speaker 1: stops and looks up at the blasting sun. He feels
- 44:38Speaker 1: as if he's in a furnace. He struggles on.
- 44:43Speaker 2: I tried to find that harmony between what I saw
- 44:48Speaker 2: and how I lived and failed.
- 44:52Speaker 1: Exterior an empty stretch of beach continuous. Caravajiou continues to walk,
- 44:58Speaker 1: looking out at the sea, seeing what he imagines to
- 45:01Speaker 1: be his ship on the horizon.
- 45:03Speaker 2: There is a life going on beyond this life, a
- 45:06Speaker 2: life that separates us from all our mistakes, from accidents pain.
- 45:15Speaker 1: He looks up at the sun and kneels at first,
- 45:18Speaker 1: then falls onto the beach. Dressed in tatter clothing of
- 45:22Speaker 1: vivid golden red, Caravaggio lies motionless on the white sand
- 45:26Speaker 1: at the edge of the blue sea, under the pure
- 45:29Speaker 1: white light of the sun. He reaches his arms towards
- 45:33Speaker 1: the sun. Cut to exterior beach outside Porte de Collie continues.
- 45:42Speaker 1: Two nuns from a small hospital off the beach, led
- 45:44Speaker 1: by the young boy, appear. They rush to Caravaggio's side.
- 45:49Speaker 2: That is how God has been to me all my life,
- 45:52Speaker 2: just out of reach, perhaps the light tells me to
- 45:59Speaker 2: love the mystery, and then Lecco.
- 46:04Speaker 1: The nuns comfort him with water to drink, then rubbing
- 46:07Speaker 1: his forehead with it. They place a light blanket over
- 46:10Speaker 1: him to ease his tremble.
- 46:12Speaker 5: Your holiness, I have been informed that Michelangelo Maurici de
- 46:17Speaker 5: Caravaggio was found dead the day before yesterday, July eighteenth,
- 46:23Speaker 5: on the Tryhenian coasts outside.
- 46:26Speaker 3: Of port are called.
- 46:28Speaker 1: Two workers appear with a stretcher and rush over to Caravaci.
- 46:31Speaker 5: He was made aware of your pardon.
- 46:34Speaker 1: Cut to interior papal chambers, roam day alone, the Pope
- 46:40Speaker 1: faces Caravacchio's paintings.
- 46:42Speaker 5: As you demanded, I have secured all the canvasses from
- 46:47Speaker 5: the knights, and all that he created that were not
- 46:51Speaker 5: painted on the walls.
- 46:53Speaker 1: The paintings of gloriously realistic, intense, brutal, and filled with
- 46:58Speaker 1: a searching for faith.
- 47:00Speaker 5: They will be brought to your private residence in Rome.
- 47:05Speaker 1: The Pope is clearly affected. Cut to exterior beach outside
- 47:10Speaker 1: Porte de Coli day. As the two workers and the
- 47:15Speaker 1: two nuns strain to ease Caravachio onto the stretcher, he
- 47:18Speaker 1: turns and sees Ailov standing on the beach directly in
- 47:22Speaker 1: front of the sun facing him. Stefano stands behind Ailof.
- 47:28Speaker 1: Behind them is a small boat on the beach with
- 47:30Speaker 1: several knights keeping it from moving with a tide.
- 47:34Speaker 7: Alone.
- 47:34Speaker 1: Ailof walks to Caravaccio reaches him and stops. The workers
- 47:39Speaker 1: and nuns ignore him as they steady the stretcher to
- 47:42Speaker 1: place Caravacchio onto it. Ailof looks down at Caravacio, forgive me.
- 47:51Speaker 1: Caravachio strains to look into Ailov's eyes, his own eyes
- 47:55Speaker 1: still being with intelligence and searching, despite being overwhelmed with suffering,
- 48:01Speaker 1: until having lost all strength, he closes his eyes, falls
- 48:05Speaker 1: back and dies.
- 48:08Speaker 2: What you see in the art, you will find in
- 48:10Speaker 2: the artist, And what you see in the artist you
- 48:15Speaker 2: will find in the man.
- 48:17Speaker 1: Aloft watches as Karavacha's bodies lifted up and carried off
- 48:21Speaker 1: the beach. The end
