THE PLAGUE
THE HAND OF THE GARDUÑA
SEVILLE
LATE 16TH CENTURY
- How much?
- 200 maravedís and food.
That's too much.
Less than half what I could make
if the crew found out.
I could get rich from here to the New World
and so could you.
I'll give you 150.
200.
I'll bring down food myself
twice a day.
And water.
I promise
no one will know they're here.
Clean it.
And get rid of the chains.
I don't need them.
There's someone there.
Turn around.
Behind the tree trunk!
- Quick, shoot!
- It's not loaded! Gunpowder!
Hurry, he's getting away.
Shoot!
He must be nearby.
I think I hit him.
Don't make any noise.
I'm sure I hit him.
That way.
This way.
This is finished.
I'm calling the sheriff.
Leave us.
- He can't do anything.
- I won't let them kill you.
- You have to stop.
- I got the boat.
Those women rely on me.
I can't abandon them now.
From where?
From the river.
Illegals.
That's where they all are.
Who's in charge there?
No one knows.
Starting tomorrow
you'll always have a guard.
We have to find out who did this
before they try again.
And who'll get them out?
It's here.
They've been outside the wall
for some time, uncontrolled.
- And the law?
- What law?
Is there a law for whores?
They're forced to live there.
Like slaves.
Move it!
Open your mouth.
Get inside.
Mateo Núñez Cobos, Military Camp,
Puerto del Rey, New World
THE NEW WORLD
Those who left were outcasts with no future,
hoping to start again
NEW WORLD
Tierra del Fuego
Hurry!
It's going out.
It's out.
I'm out of gunpowder.
Now.
- What's wrong?
- The fuse, it's too wet!
It won't light.
- Blow on it!
- I can't blow any harder!
Now.
Marchena!
The fuse, Marchena! It's alight!
Move!
Marchena, out of the way!
It's alight!
Marchena!
- Again.
- They're the same.
If the cold doesn't kill us, that will,
whatever it is.
The salt's missing.
And two spears.
It's ready.
I'll try to make gunpowder.
Starting tomorrow,
piss in that bucket.
I'm not hungry.
I'm leaving.
Tomorrow at first light.
- Where?
- North.
The coast. We saw smoke
when we got there.
Someone must be there.
They won't come back.
They've forgotten us.
Keep my plot of land.
I don't want it.
This land is dead.
There are only monsters here.
We have to get the snow off the roof
before it collapses.
Marchena...
Marchena?
María! The water!
- That's the signal.
- Quickly...
You're the last ones.
Go on. Hurry.
- Let's go.
- My sister...
She's not here.
No, we can't wait.
She knows the leader.
She knows who he is.
I know you're looking for him.
She knows him in person.
- Where's your sister?
- She went for her things.
You go. I'll catch up.
Go on.
They're taking too long.
- They've been caught.
- Be quiet.
She's right.
They should be here by now.
Quiet.
They'll kill us all.
Our Father, who art in Heaven,
hallowed be thy name.
Shut up.
Keep quiet. Stay still.
Be quiet.
Someone's coming.
It's them.
It's them.
Quickly.
Come on, quickly!
Close the door.
- How many?
- With these, 15.
One of them knows the leader.
That's too many.
It's never too many.
Eugenia says
one of them knows him.
If we don't want to be caught
We have to wait until the boat leaves.
She doesn't know his name.
He owns them all.
Who is she?
The younger of the two sisters
with Eugenia.
There's no harm in listening to them.
- Have I missed something?
- Search him.
Go ahead.
You won't find anything.
Well, you will, but not cards.
- He's not looking for cards.
- Nothing.
Sit down.
- What's going on?
- Who owns the whores by the river?
They're illegal.
They do as they like.
No whore does as she likes.
- I heard there's a man.
- Heard where?
A whore who worked for him.
I don't know his name
but he owns them all.
Why do you want him?
He's looking for me.
We have common interests.
Since when
are you interested in whores?
He's about 50.
He worked at the brothel for years.
You must know him.
He has three dots tattooed
on his right hand.
You know what that means.
I don't know him.
I want him.
I want you to get to him.
- It's the Garduña. I could be killed.
- He wants to kill me.
That's why I can't do it.
Baeza, quickly!
- What is it?
- He's killing your favourite.
Wait!
Here.
Bitch!
- Stop, you'll kill her.
- What are you doing?
Hey, calm down...
Go and find Moreno.
What's wrong?
This whore... She's rotten.
Show him your legs.
Show him your legs!
Your money...
Take your pick. They're clean.
- This one.
- Be nice to him.
-Take your time.
- Let's go.
Back to work.
Work!
How long have you had the spots?
A month.
- How did you hide them?
- Rice powder.
How did you get it?
What is it?
She has syphilis.
She has to go.
Learn your lesson.
You're too naive.
Stop thinking with your dick.
Get out.
What do you want?
You can't stay here.
Who says?
The fever and pain...
Soon you won't be able to move.
Leave me alone.
I don't work for your boss any more.
You need somewhere to heal.
No one wants to sleep
with a sick whore.
You won't have to sleep with anyone.
No one?
- Even if I get better?
- Yes. I don't care.
Hold this.
Go in.
Go on.
Who owns it?
It's abandoned.
They've been empty since the plague.
No one wants them.
But I want to buy them.
This whole street.
What for?
Come here...
Look outside.
The brothel.
There's no money now.
It's at the river with the illegal whores.
But it will come back.
The whores will come back to the brothel.
It will grow to here
and I'll own the houses.
I can get you mercury for that.
But it's expensive.
I have money
and some jewellery.
That's enough.
You have to get out of here!
You have to go!
You have to go! The ships!
The ships!
The ships!
The ships are here!
You have to go! The ships!
I'm Captain Alvarado.
We bring supplies
and an order to expand the camp.
Private Mateo Núñez.
Where are the others?
Dead. You're a year late.
I'm the only one still alive.
Indians?
You're the first living man
I've seen in months.
Come on, Icarus...
Come on.
Sir, Captain Alvarado
asked me to give you this.
It's the royal document
granting you land in the New World.
And this is also for you.
Your mail.
Excuse me.
What will you do with the rest?
The letters.
Throw them away, I suppose.
Dear Mateo,
It's a long time since I heard from you...
If you don't occupy the land
within two years,
it goes to the Crown.
One year.
It's fertile land in northern Chile.
You're a rich man.
Why do you want to go back?
A friend.
One ship leaves at dawn.
- Where to?
- Across the strait and up to Peru.
- The other one?
- Cádiz.
In two days.
Cádiz.
One more thing...
Ladies, come on. Quickly.
- Help me, please.
- Miss, hurry up.
Come on.
My lady...
- When do you sail?
- Tomorrow.
At dawn.
As soon as it's loaded.
It's the last one. Bon voyage.
Let's go.
What?
Six of clubs.
Are you playing?
- What do you want?
- Conrado...
- What about him?
- He wants a favour.
- Why doesn't he ask me?
- He's a respectable man.
He doesn't mingle with scum.
You'd never guess.
How much for the favour?
- One more when you do it.
- A good favour.
Someone's bothering him.
-Why?
- That doesn't concern you.
What does he want me to do?
Why don't you do it?
Haven't you learned yet?
It's someone you know.
- I know lots of people.
- Someone you play with.
- I play with lots of people.
- He only plays with you.
Only you know where he is.
- Tell Conrado to find someone else.
- He doesn't want anyone else.
Only you can do it.
Too bad.
This is just a warning.
Baeza, take the money
and buy your whore a nice dress.
If you don't,
we'll take Conrado your liver.
You have three days, no more.
Kill him and burn the place
he hides the whores.
Keep still.
I've almost finished.
Here, drink this.
You can do it with this.
We use them to shave our legs.
No one will ask you
to take off your boots.
I've never done it.
I've never killed anyone.
Don't do it.
It's the Garduña.
I have no choice.
He's here.
Bring him in.
Where should I stand? Here?
Problems?
The street.
That's not a weapon.
All right. You can go.
Sit down.
Cut.
Your turn.
Conrado, that's his name.
He owns the whores at the river.
And almost all the illegals
outside the wall.
I don't know him.
Are you all right?
My wound. I have a fever.
You should see a doctor.
You look bad.
I'm in...
Talk to Monardes. He's the best.
Don't worry about the money.
I don't want to lose my only friend.
Are you in or not?
I'm Baeza.
Get your boss.
- Someone's looking for you.
- Let him in.
Come in.
How's the wound?
Tell Conrado
he won't bother him any more.
The whores' hiding place?
Burnt down.
We're even.
Have you heard from him?
He always kept it with him.
Where was it?
At the warehouse.
In the ashes.
What?
- What?
- Sorry to bother you but it's serious.
You should come with me.
- And the sheriff?
- You asked to see the city.
We have to wait for your guard.
I don't need it.
No one knows me.
Sir...
You can't carry weapons.
- Who says?
- The ordinance.
The law, sir.
Let's go.
Good Lord, they're just girls.
Who are they?
They tried to defend themselves.
- Where's the crew?
- There was no one here but them.
It was fishermen who told us.
The three dots...
Recognise them?
It's the Garduña.
A criminal gang.
I think I've seen enough.
It's time to meet the city council.
Find out who they are.
And write to my wife.
Tell her to come. She should be here.
