Is anyone there?
We’re looking for a dangerous bandit.
Find him!
Captain!
I didn’t see anyone.
And I should be closing now.
It’s estimated, that during the Ominous Decade,
the invading French army
plundered more than 1700 works of art.
They’d go for literally everything:
paintings, sculptures, altarpieces...
It was a form of punishment for their greater enemy, the brigands.
By taking the images they used to worship from them,
they were darkening their mood.
Actually,
take this as an introduction for the presentation of my book:
The Plundering by the Hundred Thousand,
tomorrow, at 8 p.m.
Do not miss it!
I will reveal the biggest secret
behind Our Lady of the Brigands.
Thanks a lot and see you tomorrow.
Those are beautiful flowers!
I'll buy them for a gift.
They are for Our Lady.
Look!
Our Lady will like this too.
What are you doing here?
Lower your voice.
- I came to say thank you. - What are you talking about?
Two days ago, in the church,
you saved my life.
You seem to be in the habit of storming into sacred places.
And also of not being calm anywhere.
Mum!
I was gathering some flowers for Our Lady,
when suddenly,
a man arrived and gave me these two coins for the bouquet.
Just a fool would pay so much for a few wildflowers.
Here, take them to Our Lady.
I didn’t know you had a child.
You should leave.
If you don’t leave now, I’ll call the Mother Superior.
I know you wouldn’t do that.
I just wanted to tell you, that I’m in debt with you.
Did you just come to say thanks?
How can you be so foolish?
You cannot even go for a walk in the village of Estepa.
No matter what you say. You will always be a bandit.
I am Juan Caballero.
I am not worse than you.
I’m just a brigand, that’s the difference.
Here you have, Carmen. Thank you so much.
No, thanks to you.
I really love showing people around the city
and also the tips they give me.
How many tours do you have this weekend?
Two groups of tourists on Sunday.
Cool, I’m glad for you.
I need to go, see you on Monday.
- See you later. - Bye, thanks.
You are not thinking about leaving, are you?
It’s four already.
I couldn't care less.
It’s Friday, you are working the closing shift.
But I did Montse’s shift last Friday.
I don’t care.
I simply don’t care.
No one moves till Montse is here.
Please, I need to leave now.
I have a meeting with my thesis advisor in one hour.
You know that we need a waitress here at all times.
So if you dare to leave before Montse is here,
don’t bother to come back on Monday.
Understood?
Your choice now!
Yes.
- Good afternoon. - Hold on a sec, please.
Good afternoon.
Could you let Tony Alemany know that Carmen is here?
He’s waiting for you in the yard. Through those stairs, first floor.
- Thanks. - You are welcome.
Yes, sorry, as I said earlier, they are all booked,
the first, the third and the sixth.
Hello!
Mr. Alemany, it is a pleasure to finally meet you in person.
The pleasure is mine.
I’m sorry, I’m late. My boss wouldn’t let me leave earlier.
No problem. Fancy a drink?
I don’t know, I’m a little nervous.
A sip will help you relax a little bit.
Okay.
Thanks.
Good.
Your thesis is almost finished now.
I haven’t read your last email yet.
The lecture kept me quite busy this whole week.
Don’t worry, if you want, we could discuss it briefly now.
Although I’m not sure you’d like to talk about work.
Let’s talk about work, but without talking about work.
I’m sorry, I don’t understand.
What’s your artistic opinion about Our Lady of the Brigands?
And as incredible as it may seem,
that’s the reason why I chose this theme for my thesis.
Interesting!
Excuse me, this is important.
Again?
We’ve already discussed this.
I don’t care if they pressure us...
I’m doing it.
I have a boss too.
It’s late now.
It’s been a very instructive conversation.
Before you leave, I have a small gift for you.
Your passion for culture makes me feel younger.
It reminds me of my younger self.
Would you accept it?
Of course.
I haven’t bought it yet, so thank you.
Leave that for later.
Okay.
- I’ll pick you up tomorrow at 17:45. - Sure.
Okay.
Here you have my number, just in case you need me.
Okay.
Thanks.
See you tomorrow.
Juan, you are taking a major risk coming to the parish.
I’m in debt with Our Lady.
This is not right.
I don’t want your dirty money.
Father, don’t be naive.
I am not the one filling this bag.
It’s the landowners, they are very generous.
Keep praying
and make sure this money goes to those who need it.
Are you the priest of this church?
I am Father Gabriel.
Here you have this letter demanding immediate compliance,
signed by the Duke of Angouleme.
Where is he?
May God forgive me!
What's going on here?
There he comes.
Is that the new chief?
Who’s the victim?
An Art Professor who came for a lecture.
Any evidence?
This note was on the small table.
The suitcase was still neatly packed.
There was no sign of violence.
Both watch and wallet were found with the corpse.
All evidence points to a suicide.
Did he have a mobile phone?
We don’t know.
Did you speak to the hotel staff?
Yes, nobody heard anything.
Anything else?
No.
Yes.
This note was in his pocket.
Good morning! Carmen Fernandez?
Yes, that’s me.
You must come with us to the station.
Why? What happened?
Mr. Tony Alemany appeared dead this morning.
Can I grab my purse?
Sure. And don’t forget your ID.
And put on some shoes.
I left him at the hotel at about eight and then I went home.
Did he say anything personal that could explain the suicide?
No, it was a friendly conversation.
May I?
Go ahead.
My Lieutenant, we have the results from Forensics.
There are fingerprints from two different people in the note.
I have to ask again.
Was anyone else with you?
No, I already told you.
And nobody asked about him during the conversation?
No.
Actually, there’s something...
He received a phone call just before I left.
I thought it was his boss.
He changed his attitude so badly.
A phone call?
To the hotel room?
No, we were in the yard all the time.
It was on his mobile phone.
So he had a mobile phone?
Everybody has a mobile phone.
Could we take your fingerprints
to cross-check them with the ones on the note?
Go ahead, no problem.
But...
I still don’t understand why I’m here.
You were the last person who saw him alive.
Also,
we found this in his pocket.
You shouldn’t leave the town without my permission.
Here you have my card.
If you remember anything else that could be useful, please call me.
Excuse me.
Could I ask you a question?
Are you the new chief everybody is talking about?
Don’t believe everything you see on TV.
Go back to work!
What happened?
What is he doing here?
There is something I need to tell you.
In this letter,
our dear King Ferdinand VII,
in order to satisfy the demand from the Duke of Angouleme,
General of the Hundred Thousand Sons of Saint Louis,
has decided to finance his army
by giving him part of our patrimony.
But they will not take Our Lady.
So what are you going to do?
I’ll take Her far away from here.
You cannot go on your own, Father.
Listen to her, don’t be a fool, Father!
The roads are not safe, they are full of dangerous people.
Juan!
You should go with him.
I’m grateful to Our Lady, but I have some affairs to handle.
Also,
I’ve already risked enough.
Enough?
I expected more from Juan Caballero.
I’ll go with you, Father.
Candela,
you should think with your head rather than with your heart.
It’s a dangerous journey
and you have a daughter.
The Sisters will take care of her in my absence.
In a funeral cart?
No one will be suspicious of a corpse, a priest and a nun.
Don’t worry, we’ll take care of her.
Daughter, behave yourself.
I’ll be gone for a few days.
Did you go inside?
No.
Okay, stay here, I’ll check whether it’s safe.
You can come in, it’s safe.
No, don’t touch anything!
You could destroy evidence.
Sorry, I’ve already grabbed it.
There are fingerprints everywhere. Right?
Shit! Damn it!
Were there any valuables here?
No, I don’t like jewels.
And a student working as a waitress, doesn't have money for luxuries.
Well, this house is impressive.
It’s not mine, it’s my aunt’s.
She lives in Barcelona, so she lets me stay here.
I need to call her now. Thanks God we have insurance.
Tell me the truth, what did you speak about?
Again?
I already told you. Why don't you believe me?
I’m still skeptical.
What was he going to say today?
He was supposed to reveal
the biggest secret behind Our Lady of the Brigands.
My Lieutenant, what a bad spell!
Who said that nothing ever happens in towns?
Carmen, stay with my colleague.
Call your insurance and ask them to change the lock.
Call me if you hear anything, when you are alone.
I am going to the church. Let me know if there’s any news.
Wait!
Do you know what you’re looking for?
I’ll know it when I see it.
I’m going with you.
No, you cannot come. This is a police investigation.
And how will you get in? The church is closed now.
I’ll call the town council. I’m sure someone will open it for me.
Load it!
Let’s search the church!
Captain,
I’m waiting for your commands.
Stay in town, see if he comes back. The rest of us will look for him.
If you see him, don’t show any mercy.
I don’t know how to thank you for your bravery.
Candela, I need to be honest with you.
When you got pregnant,
I could not free you from your father’s tyranny.
Yes, you did.
Your daughter’s father left you, and I know that you loved him...
Father.
I don’t want to speak about it.
Let’s not lose our faith, my child. Our Lady might be helping us.
Be careful, as kindness
could come together with danger.
This blessed brigand changed his mind.
I am sure this unholy coward wants something else, Father.
Calm down, please.
You could be raided.
And what could they possibly steal? The corpse?
Stealing is the best thing that could happen to you.
I brought you something to eat.
And some discreet clothes for her.
I agree. She should hide her habits.
But there is nothing suspicious about a priest moving a corpse.
Whatever you say, Father.
So, Father, what is the plan?
I do not have any plan.
Father...
I just wanted to leave the church.
Let’s find some shelter, first.
Any ideas?
Yes.
But we must hurry.
Let’s go!
Juan, didn’t you come to warn her?
There’s rumor about the authenticity of Our Lady of the Brigands.
According to legend, Juan Caballero was being persecuted,
but he managed to hide under the cape of Our Lady
and that way he saved his life.
Are you listening to me?
I am one of those men who can do two things at once.
According to legend, too, El Vivillo, another brigand,
gave a ring to Our Lady.
That’s what we are looking for.
How can we go to the niche?
This was an offering the brigands made to Our Lady.
It’s impressive, so close!
Run!
Halt!
Are you okay?
We are here.
Candela,
put this on your hair, try not to stand out.
Father, I will take care of the cart.
The usual?
House wine.
For me too.
Your friend here does not know what she wants.
Wine too.
Father, have you decided
what we are going to do?
No, the divine inspiration hasn’t come yet.
Hopefully, I’ll come up with something after I’m full.
You are in the right place, then.
There is good food, good wine
and it is a safe place.
Father, if we do not hurry,
we'll have to leave Juan behind.
As it’s better to be alone than in bad company.
Woman!
If it wasn’t for me, you’d be treated differently here.
Are you in a hurry?
Your room is available.
Father Gabriel and I are in a hurry.
But maybe Juan wants to stay.
Bring us something to eat, we are just passing through.
Gentlemen and my lady,
you are on a winning strike.
I’m slower than usual, as I’m a little drunk.
Swindler!
We don’t have time for games. Don’t mess around!
Let’s have a break!
My friend!
Could you show us your game?
Sure.
I need two empty glasses and a coin.
Perfect.
Ready?
Where is the coin?
The prize for the young lady.
The swindler pays for our food today.
Where is the coin?
May I?
Sure, Father, it’s in the middle.
Bloody cheater.
Juan!
It’s just a game.
It’s the best coin you’ve lost.
- Want to try again? - Go away!
Father,
give me an excuse not to go
to recover what’s mine.
I know what to do with Our Lady.
I have a plan.
Does it hurt?
A little.
It was not your fault.
You can’t know what people think.
You couldn't know that man was going to kill his wife.
It was my mistake.
I overlooked the case and went for a drink with my friends.
It’s my fault those kids lost their mum.
I won’t be responsible for the deaths of more innocents.
In order to help you, I need the truth about the professor.
I’ve already told you everything. I have nothing to hide.
There must be a reason why they were looking for you,
searching your home and following you.
Yes, sure. But what?
Something related to Tony.
Tony was my thesis advisor, I met him in person yesterday.
Think about the details.
All this time, didn’t he give you anything?
No. Tony was a very reserved person and very cautious with his work.
Anything, could help us. Think!
He gave me a book.
A book?
Yes, you can find it in bookshops. It is just a simple book.
Which book?
I have it here.
“The Marquises are hiding the truth. 1833.”
Who wrote this?
Him.
Do you know what it means?
Let me have a look.
Can I have it for a sec?
It’s not the same handwriting.
He didn’t commit suicide, he was murdered.
He wanted to tell you something with this book.
And he feared for his life.
Any idea what it means?
Yes, it must be about the Marquises of Estepa.
Why is the church of the brigands related to the Marquises of Estepa?
The Marquises of Estepa financed the church of Our Lady of the Brigands.
Let’s go to the Marquises’ House.
No, you’ve already done enough today.
What do you mean?
If I didn’t have to stop to check on you,
I would have arrested the murderer.
Wait, what?
That jerk got away because of you.
You just want to solve this case to feel better about yourself.
No, I just want you to be safe.
Ok, Lieutenant.
You need an expert in History of Art to answer your questions.
So start looking for help somewhere else then.
Okay.
But you must do as I say.
And once this is over, we go separate ways.
Needless to say, I don’t want us to be friends.
I don’t understand, Father.
This is pure madness.
Could you help us?
Sure, Father. It will be hard.
But if you think this is our best shot, we’ll have to try.
To be her first time, it was not that bad.
I need a man here!
We need your help.
They are looking for us.
Find a way to distract them, invite them to a round.
May I have your attention?
As we are not used
to have the presence of such brave men
or my Captain,
with that distinguished demeanor,
let’s sing a few songs for them,
to cheer us all up.
Hurrah for our saviors!
This round is on the house! Let’s start!
Father, look for Candela, and leave without me.
I will distract them.
Now, Father.
Run!
Halt!
Who’s there?
Soldier, lower your weapon.
Father?
What are you doing here?
I’m trying to avoid the shooting. Now I should continue my way.
I have orders from my Captain to watch the cart.
So do I.
Idiots, we need to recover my horse!
There’s still three left, these two here, and this one here.
My General, we have important news from Seville.
Let him in!
My General, the mission failed.
What do you need to subdue a one-horse town? A thousand men?
My General.
Leave that to me.
In the name of the King, halt!
My friend, how shall we help you?
We have orders to register all the carts coming this way.
You can see what we have.
They have a corpse.
Was this someone important?
A very important noble lady.
I want to see her.
Sir, it’s a sin to profane...
Get her out of the cart.
I won’t allow it.
Shame on you, Jose Maria, for dressing like that.
I didn’t know you were saving the dead now.
Can someone tell me what’s happening here?
This is the selfsame Tempranillo.
And that Captain...
It was a miracle we escaped the tavern.
And then we found you dressed up with those uniforms.
What are you doing with Our Lady?
Exchange her.
We exchange one statue for another.
After the last fire in the parish,
I took one of the statues of Christ
to an atelier in Seville for restoration.
It belongs to one of the best Andalusian religious sculptors.
Why don’t you go somewhere closer?
Because the best baroque polychrome wood statues
are made in that atelier.
All of them look quite similar.
And what happens when the Hundred Thousand come to Estepa?
We will fight.
They might take our lives,
but not Our Lady.
You are crazy.
Jose Maria,
will you help us?
Don’t put me in this predicament, Juan.
I can’t send my men to a sure death just to save a statue of the Virgin.
What if it was the one you worship?
We both know you are not doing this just to save a statue of the Virgin.
You might find it hard to believe,
but I owe my life to both of them.
And I cannot leave them alone.
All I can do for you,
is sending Frasco to show you the way.
Frasco is the last one who joined you.
That’s fine.
Any help is appreciated.
Remember your wife and children are waiting for you.
If something happened to me,
you would take care of them.
That’s for sure.
- Hello, good afternoon, Carmen. - Hello, Maria Antonia.
This is Victor, Lieutenant of the Military Police of Estepa.
- Good afternoon, my pleasure. - Good afternoon.
Is there any visit today?
There is a group in half an hour.
Okay, thanks, we will be quick.
Could you let us know if someone comes while we are here?
Don’t worry, visitors can only come by appointment.
I will be here, in case you need any help.
- Okay, thanks. - You are welcome.
Where are we going, Carmen?
Many historical events took place in this palace.
And the chapel is the only link I see with Our Lady of the Brigands.
This is the Marquises’ old chapel.
At one point, it was dedicated to the Immaculate Conception.
Let’s see if I’ve understood correctly,
the only link between the Marquises and the Church of the Brigands
is the Immaculate Conception?
Yes.
The secret Tony was revealing was about Our Lady of the Brigands?
Yes.
It doesn’t make any sense.
There must be something else.
Think, Victor, think.
And this picture?
Ferdinand VII granted an amnesty to the brigands back then.
In 1832, they signed the documents in this same room.
Where is that small chapel?
I’m such an idiot!
How could I not see this earlier?
What do you mean?
The event took place in that chapel,
but later on they built a cemetery around it,
which is still in use today.
The Marquises’ remains rest in that cemetery.
Sorry, Carmen, the group is here. You need to leave now.
Golf Charlie One calling Eleven.
Go ahead, Golf Charlie.
We have the results of the autopsy. Cardiac arrest due to electrocution.
Copy, Golf Charlie One.
Do you need anything else?
I’m going to the cemetery. Go in the vicinity and stay alert!
Juan!
Let me get in first.
Father!
Candela!
Bring some water and light a fire. I need to take the bullet out.
Father!
We need to rest so that you recover.
I cannot stay with you, my friend.
We don’t have time to rest.
More soldiers will come.
We should go on.
Go on where, Father?
To the house of the sculpture master.
It is our last hope.
It’s this one.
What should we do now?
We are desecrating a tomb.
If you don't abuse your power, you'll lose it.
And what are we looking for now?
We don’t know it yet.
Can I borrow that for a sec?
There’s an airstream here.
Give me a hand!
A passage?
Let’s have a look!
Captain!
You need to go inside.
It will take me some time.
There’s no rush.
No problem.
Excuse me!
I need some rest.
If you want, you can stay all night here.
Thanks, my friend.
Father!
The exchange was done. We should go!
I’d like to say goodbye to her.
Oh, my Lady!
My glorious and beautiful Lady!
My loving Mother!
Through your love and my faith,
please, grant me the eternal salvation.
Amen.
Juan!
Promise me you’ll look after them.
Woman!
We need to go!
Where’s Father Gabriel?
Saying goodbye to Our Lady.
Father?
Faroles.
This is a brigands’ cemetery.
Help me, please!
Can anyone hear me?
I’m in the cemetery.
Can anyone hear me?
Please, I need help.
Can anyone hear me?
Please, I need help!
We’re almost there!
What do you want from me?
I know he was like a father to you.
When I was 16,
I met a young farmer.
He used to work for my father.
I loved his approach to life.
I fell madly in love with him.
But I got pregnant
and my beloved farmer left me.
When my father found out,
he got me into the nunnery.
Father Gabriel was the only one who helped me back then.
Thanks to him, I have my daughter.
I can’t believe he’s not with us anymore.
He died defending what he loved the most.
And now he’s up there, Candela, with Our Lady.
And together, we’ll fulfil his dream.
I will look after you, no matter what.
Let’s go!
Listen!
Go around the path
and I’ll meet you at the church.
I am Juan Caballero.
Are you looking for me?
Come here, if you have the guts!
Captain, it could be an ambush!
You again?
You had the courage to come after me on your own.
I want you to know something.
You’re chasing me for crimes I didn’t commit.
Not in the past.
Not now.
Why don’t you kill me?
Because you are brave
and I’m not a killer.
But if we ever meet again,
your ending will be different.
I’m fine!
Ask for reinforcements and go after that man!
There’s no new evidence
and our shift ends in 15 minutes.
This is a matter of priority!
We are talking about a killer here!
I'll make it up to you!
And guys...
Be careful, that’s a dangerous man!
Are you okay?
Yes.
Thanks to you!
Did he hurt you?
No.
He stole my bag with the book.
Shit! That was our only clue!
No.
This is a pendant of the Immaculate Conception.
This is not just a brigands’ cemetery,
they were Tempranillo’s men.
“I should be here”
He might have written that himself.
Is this the tomb of Tempranillo?
No, it’s not.
I don’t know what you mean.
We had it from the beginning.
The Marquises are hiding the truth, 1833.
Yes, I said that earlier.
The only link between the Marquises and Our Lady of the Brigands
is the Immaculate Conception.
The Marquises financed the new church in the Alameda.
In 1833, they buried Tempranillo there.
What could Tempranillo possibly hide about Our Lady of the Brigands?
Tony wanted to let me know
that Our Lady of the Brigands’ secret was hidden in the tomb of a brigand.
Juan!
- Some soldiers are coming! - What?
Go behind me!
History is calling for brave men.
Lower your weapons!
We are on the same side today.
Juan, they are less than an hour away.
Let’s divide the ammunition!
Me and my three men will cover the top.
I’ll leave my men in the backyard and will go with you.
I’m going too.
Eleven calling Golf Charlie One.
Go to the Immaculate Conception Church, in the Alameda.
Exercise caution! I’m on my way!
Copy that!
You might need this!
Edmond!
Two men!
At my signal, start shooting!
Stay here!
Let me find out what’s going on.
Eleven, where are you?
Eleven?
Shoot!
Cover the flanks!
Surround the church!
We ran out of ammunition.
We should go down!
No, we stay in position.
We need to brace the door!
Hold on, Juan!
We ran out of ammunition!
There's a yard in the back with four men.
It could be their weak spot.
Let’s go!
Push!
Keep pushing!
My Captain! They are entering through...
Drop your weapons!
Juan!
Our only option is surrender.
Drop your weapons!
A brigand never surrenders!
Candela...
Leave her alone!
This is just the beginning.
No one humiliates the Sons of Saint Louis!
Okay.
Calm down!
For freedom!
We will find her!
Carmen!
Thanks, my friend!
I’ll let the King know about today’s heroic deeds.
Tempranillo, we need to talk!
Juan!
Thanks!
This is all he had with him.
And this was in his car.
Thank you very much.
You should go to the hospital as soon as possible,
to rule out any internal bleeding.
Okay.
I found this.
The book is inside.
Thanks.
Hey!
We did not start on the right foot, but...
I know what you are going to say.
And it’s a yes.
I’d like to have a drink with you.
Awesome!
But first we need to finish what we started.
Sounds good to me!
Juan!
Where’s Juan?
I have good news.
Candela!
Juan!
Look, read this!
The King granted a pardon for you.
You can now live in Estepa, without hiding.
And I have more news.
I am no longer a nun.
Juan!
What’s wrong?
Didn’t Father Gabriel tell you?
Tell me what?
I’m a married man.
Tell me you have no feelings for me.
No, I cannot tell you that, Candela.
I know I’m losing the love of my life,
and I won’t forgive myself for this.
But I cannot cheat on you, Candela.
I have a duty to my family.
I hope you can forgive me.
It will be up to you, Juan,
whether these will ever be together again.
How can we open this?
Here!
And that, my friend Jose Maria,
is how I found out where Our Lady really is.
Right now it’s not the right moment to reveal Her real location.
That’s the reason
why I trust you, my friend,
with my biggest secret.
It’s your last week here. Right?
Who knows? Maybe I found a reason to come back.
Come in!
What would you like to do?
Too many people died because of this.
No, not the bandage.
Why?
I just borrowed this.
According to legend, Our Lady of the Brigands, the real one, has a hidden inscription made by Juan Caballero.
Up till today, some lineal descendants of the Sons of Saint Lois, due to his wounded pride, are still looking for the carved letter “R” among all the statues of the Virgin in Andalusia.
