Alexander, the army will divide.

8
00:03:06,771 --> 00:03:09,816
Satrapias will revolt.
Without your orders, there will be war.

We beg you. Tell us who.

<b>ALEXANDRIA, EGYPT - 285 B.C.
40 YEARS LATER</b>

11
00:04:12,212 --> 00:04:14,338
Our world is now gone.

12
00:04:16,132 --> 00:04:18,885
I'm the last survivor.

13
00:04:21,261 --> 00:04:24,098
Whether this is a blessing or a curse...

14
00:04:24,348 --> 00:04:26,809
who, by Hades, will know.

15
00:04:29,603 --> 00:04:31,689
But I paid my price...

16
00:04:32,314 --> 00:04:34,234
in blood...

17
00:04:36,861 --> 00:04:39,697
and in shattered dreams.

18
00:04:40,990 --> 00:04:44,035
I say we were the greatest fighting force...

19
00:04:44,284 --> 00:04:46,328
already better known to man.

20
00:04:48,664 --> 00:04:53,211
Higher until the expedition to Troy.

21
00:04:54,587 --> 00:04:58,382
But how can I say?
How can I explain how it was...

22
00:04:58,632 --> 00:05:03,054
being young and having big dreams?

23
00:05:03,303 --> 00:05:08,101
Believing that when Alexander looked at us
eyes, you could do anything.

24
00:05:08,350 --> 00:05:10,144
Anything.

25
00:05:12,063 --> 00:05:18,569
In his presence, by the light of Apollo,
we were better people.

26
00:05:20,654 --> 00:05:22,073
Truly...

27
00:05:22,698 --> 00:05:29,205
I have met many great men in my life,
in my life, but just a colossal one.

28
00:05:29,455 --> 00:05:32,250
And only now that I'm old
I understand...

29
00:05:32,500 --> 00:05:36,921
who this force of nature was
in fact.

30
00:05:41,134 --> 00:05:43,011
Or do I understand?

31
00:05:43,886 --> 00:05:48,390
<b>There was a man like
Alexander? Of course not.</b>

32
00:05:48,641 --> 00:05:51,894
We idealize it,
we made it better than it was.

33

<b>Men. All men
rise and fall.</b>

34
00:05:57,692 --> 00:06:00,278
They rise and fall.

35
00:06:05,449 --> 00:06:11,956
In the East, the vast Persian Empire
dominated almost the entire known world.

36
00:06:13,124 --> 00:06:17,670
In the West, the once great
Greek metropolises...

37
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:22,842
Thebes, Athens, Sparta,
they would have lost their pride.

38
00:06:23,425 --> 00:06:27,555
For 100 years, Persian kings
they had bribed the Greeks...

39
00:06:27,805 --> 00:06:31,017
with gold to fight like
mercenaries.

40
00:06:31,517 --> 00:06:36,522
It was Philip the One-Eyed,
that changed all this...

41
00:06:36,772 --> 00:06:41,527
uniting tribes of ignorant shepherds
of the highlands and lowlands.

42
00:06:41,777 --> 00:06:45,865
With your blood and your courage,
created a professional army...

43
00:06:46,115 --> 00:06:49,994
who subjugated
the treacherous Greeks.

44
00:06:51,037 --> 00:06:53,581
Then he turned
to Persia...

45
00:06:53,831 --> 00:06:57,543
where it was said that the
great king Darius...

46
00:06:57,793 --> 00:07:01,756
on his throne in Babylon,
feared Philip.

47
00:07:06,261 --> 00:07:08,304
Philip was murdered...

48
00:07:08,554 --> 00:07:12,600
to the joy of Persia
and perhaps derived from their gold.

49
00:07:12,850 --> 00:07:14,143
And Alexander,
at 20 years old...

50
00:07:14,394 --> 00:07:17,855
became the new ruler
from Macedonia.

51
00:07:18,106 --> 00:07:20,775
Announcing revenge
for the death of Philip...

52
00:07:21,234 --> 00:07:24,946
Alexander liberated all the cities
in Western Asia...

53
00:07:25,196 --> 00:07:27,489
south of Egypt...

54
00:07:28,116 --> 00:07:34,038
where he was declared Pharaoh
of Egypt, worshiped as a God.

55
00:07:37,750 --> 00:07:41,421
Finally he teased
the beginning of a battle...

56
00:07:42,964 --> 00:07:47,218
in the heart of the Persian Empire,
near Babylon.

<i>united under command

62
00:08:09,615 --> 00:08:12,285
<i>East and West had now joined...</i>

63
00:08:12,534 --> 00:08:15,871
<i>to decide the fate
of the known world.</i>

64
00:08:17,290 --> 00:08:23,004
<i>It was the day on which Alexander
had waited all his life.</i>

<i>Son of a God.</i>

66
00:08:27,216 --> 00:08:29,510
<i>It was a myth, of course.</i>

67
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:31,679
<i>At least it started as a myth.</i>

68
00:08:32,472 --> 00:08:34,640
<i>I know.</i>

69
00:08:34,890 --> 00:08:37,018
<i>I was there.</i>

70
00:08:46,152 --> 00:08:49,155
I've seen one before. He is still alive.

71
00:09:04,212 --> 00:09:05,921
Who do you pray to?

72
00:09:06,839 --> 00:09:08,883
Phobos.

73
00:09:09,967 --> 00:09:11,177
Fear?

74
00:09:14,638 --> 00:09:16,474
A bad omen.

75
00:09:18,476 --> 00:09:20,978
Even bigger for Dario.

76
00:09:26,692 --> 00:09:32,365
I believe that the fear of death is what
drive men, Hephaestion.

77
00:09:32,615 --> 00:09:35,285
We don't learn this in school.

78
00:09:36,911 --> 00:09:39,038
- So, mighty Craterus.
- Your Majesty.

79
00:09:39,872 --> 00:09:43,167
- Are you ready for dawn?
- It's about time.

80
00:09:43,626 --> 00:09:45,669
<i>Men are scared
as people...</i>

81
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,923
- and the damn buffaloes won't sit still.
- Great.

82
00:09:49,173 --> 00:09:51,426
Fear makes them fight better.

83
00:09:52,552 --> 00:09:54,595
Keep your sentries alert,
but keep them calm.

84
00:09:54,845 --> 00:09:59,016
Don't worry, general. I am known for
sleep with your eyes open.

85
00:09:59,267 --> 00:10:02,395
Just because someone might steal
your ill-gotten goods, sir.

86
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,731
Well, someone owes Craterus
for your stinginess.

87
00:10:05,982 --> 00:10:09,026
He doesn't buy gloves or blankets
to keep warm.

88
00:10:09,277 --> 00:10:11,862
Who needs gloves
When does it come from Thrace?

89
00:10:12,530 --> 00:10:15,283
Who needs clothes
When can we fight naked?

90
00:10:16,867 --> 00:10:19,954
The day after tomorrow, even the poorest among you
will be a king.

91
00:10:20,204 --> 00:10:25,084
The gods are with us, Your Majesty.
will stain the ground with Persian blood.

92
00:10:26,503 --> 00:10:28,879
You'll be in the front row tomorrow, kid.

93
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:34,469
I always believed, Alexandre.

94
00:10:34,718 --> 00:10:37,472
But this seems to be much bigger than us.

95
00:10:37,721 --> 00:10:42,101
Patroclus doubted Achilles when
Was he side by side at the siege of Troy?

96
00:10:42,560 --> 00:10:45,438
Patroclus died first.

97
00:10:45,688 --> 00:10:47,357
If you...

98
00:10:48,149 --> 00:10:52,695
If you fell, Hephaestion, even
that Macedonia would lose a king...

99
00:10:52,945 --> 00:10:55,448
I will avenge him...

100
00:10:55,698 --> 00:10:58,493
and I will follow him to the house of death.

101
00:10:58,742 --> 00:11:00,953
I would do the same.

102
00:11:10,630 --> 00:11:15,176
On the eve of battle,
It's harder to be alone.

103
00:11:19,347 --> 00:11:21,599
So maybe...

104
00:11:23,309 --> 00:11:26,563
Maybe this is a farewell...

105
00:11:27,146 --> 00:11:29,315
my Alexander.

106
00:11:29,857 --> 00:11:32,402
Don't be afraid, Hephaestion.

107
00:11:33,528 --> 00:11:36,030
We are at the beginning.

108
00:12:10,022 --> 00:12:14,151
Blood makes the world rise!

109
00:12:14,944 --> 00:12:18,448
Blood makes the rain fall!

110
00:12:21,284 --> 00:12:25,162
Blood makes the earth grow!

111
00:12:26,289 --> 00:12:32,629
And covered in blood
every man is born and dies!

112
00:12:34,338 --> 00:12:40,094
Blood is food
of the gods of the deep!

113
00:13:01,658 --> 00:13:05,328
Come, Bucephalus. Today we ride
to our destination.

114
00:13:08,122 --> 00:13:12,126
Company, form! Regroup!

115
00:13:23,471 --> 00:13:26,516
Phalanx, return!

116
00:13:32,396 --> 00:13:37,067
Phalanx, sense!

117
00:13:58,715 --> 00:14:01,384
Neoptolemus.

118
00:14:01,634 --> 00:14:04,637
I remember the day you took the
tower at the Tires.

119
00:14:04,887 --> 00:14:07,807
You were a giant.
And today, how will you fight?

120
00:14:13,479 --> 00:14:16,023
Dexipos, for Athens!

121
00:14:16,274 --> 00:14:20,319
How far did you throw your
opponent at the last Olympics?

122
00:14:20,570 --> 00:14:23,155
Will you throw your spear far away?

123
00:14:27,660 --> 00:14:32,998
And Timandro, son of Menander,
my father's great soldier.

124
00:14:33,249 --> 00:14:37,920
I still cry for your brother, Adaio,
seriously killed at Halicarnassus.

125
00:14:38,170 --> 00:14:41,674
What an honorable family
yours, Timandro.

126
00:14:41,924 --> 00:14:44,803
Fight for them today.

127
00:14:46,220 --> 00:14:52,310
Everyone honored their country
and their ancestors.

128
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:57,315
And now we come to this place
so far from Asia...

129
00:14:57,565 --> 00:15:03,904
where, before us, Darius finally
gathered a large army...

130
00:15:04,155 --> 00:15:07,408
to be by your side and fight.

131
00:15:22,423 --> 00:15:23,966
Yes...

132
00:15:24,717 --> 00:15:28,262
these Persians seem to be many.

133
00:15:28,513 --> 00:15:31,056
But look again at this horde...

134
00:15:31,307 --> 00:15:32,851
and ask yourself...

135
00:15:33,225 --> 00:15:38,606
who is this great king
who pays murderers with gold coins...

136
00:15:38,857 --> 00:15:40,941
for them to kill
my father, our king...

137
00:15:41,317 --> 00:15:46,197
in such a cowardly way
and despicable?

138
00:15:46,447 --> 00:15:51,744
Who is this great king, Darius, who
enslaves men to fight?

139
00:15:51,994 --> 00:15:56,081
Who is this king,
but a king made of air?

140
00:15:56,541 --> 00:15:59,502
Those men don't
fight for their homes!

141
00:15:59,752 --> 00:16:03,130
They fight because the king
says they must fight!

142
00:16:03,923 --> 00:16:07,802
During the battle,
they will dissolve in the air...

143
00:16:08,052 --> 00:16:10,513
because you don't owe loyalty to one
king of slaves.

144
00:16:11,597 --> 00:16:14,893
But we are not here
like slaves!

145
00:16:15,267 --> 00:16:17,395
We are here...

146
00:16:17,645 --> 00:16:21,148
like free men of Macedonia!

147
00:16:35,705 --> 00:16:37,540
Some of you...

148
00:16:39,208 --> 00:16:41,586
Maybe I myself...

149
00:16:41,836 --> 00:16:46,131
They won't live to see the sun go down
behind these mountains today.

150
00:16:47,466 --> 00:16:50,219
'Cause I'll be right in the middle...

151
00:16:50,469 --> 00:16:53,055
of battle with you.

152
00:16:54,348 --> 00:16:56,935
But remember...

153
00:16:57,184 --> 00:16:59,144
what the greatest honor...

154
00:16:59,395 --> 00:17:01,313
that a man can have...

155
00:17:01,564 --> 00:17:04,275
is to live with great courage...

156
00:17:04,525 --> 00:17:06,569
and die with your countrymen...

157
00:17:07,445 --> 00:17:09,864
in battle for his home.

158
00:17:12,408 --> 00:17:14,285
I tell you...

159
00:17:14,994 --> 00:17:19,039
what every warrior knows
since the beginning of time:

160
00:17:19,290 --> 00:17:21,667

- Teacher?
- Yes?

322
00:39:36,794 --> 00:39:37,962
- Teacher?
- Yes, speak at once!

323
00:39:38,213 --> 00:39:41,341
- Why are the Persians so cruel?
- Well, Nearchus!

324
00:39:41,590 --> 00:39:43,801
That's not today's topic,
Nearco.

325
00:39:44,052 --> 00:39:48,264
But it's true. Oriental breeds are
known for being barbarians...

326
00:39:48,514 --> 00:39:50,933
and for your
devotion to your senses...

327
00:39:51,184 --> 00:39:53,853
who are so stupid, that they emasculate...

328
00:39:54,103 --> 00:39:56,564
boys like you...

329
00:39:56,814 --> 00:39:58,941
for their sexual pleasure.

330
00:39:59,192 --> 00:40:00,318
Yes.

331
00:40:00,568 --> 00:40:04,239
Excess of anything
lead man to ruin!

332
00:40:04,488 --> 00:40:06,448
Therefore, we Greeks are
superiors.

333
00:40:06,699 --> 00:40:09,702
We control the senses.

334
00:40:09,952 --> 00:40:12,163
Moderation. That's what we hope!

335
00:40:12,413 --> 00:40:14,123
And Achilles in Troy, master?

336
00:40:15,791 --> 00:40:20,755
- Didn't he go overboard?
- It simply lacks a brake.

337
00:40:21,005 --> 00:40:24,926
Dominates others in such a way
that, even when retreating...

338
00:40:25,176 --> 00:40:28,304
crazy with pain over death
of her lover, Patroclus...

339
00:40:28,554 --> 00:40:33,393
puts his army in serious danger.
He is a deeply selfish man.

340
00:40:33,642 --> 00:40:37,479
So, do you think that Achilles' love
Why was Patroclus a corrupter?

341
00:40:38,940 --> 00:40:42,151
When men lie together
out of lust, they surrender to passions...

342
00:40:42,402 --> 00:40:46,155
and it doesn't do anything
for our excellence.

343
00:40:46,406 --> 00:40:50,743
And no other excess does,
Cassandro. Neither does jealousy.

344
00:40:51,327 --> 00:40:56,332
But when men lie together
and pass on knowledge and virtue...

345
00:40:56,582 --> 00:41:00,086
this is pure and excellent.

346
00:41:00,336 --> 00:41:04,424
When they compete to
get the best of each other...

347
00:41:04,673 --> 00:41:08,510
This is the love between men who
can build a city, metropolis...

348
00:41:08,761 --> 00:41:11,639
and get us out of the mud.

349
00:41:14,350 --> 00:41:16,311
But a man can love a woman
equally, master?

350
00:41:16,685 --> 00:41:18,354
A woman? Of course.

351
00:41:18,604 --> 00:41:20,982
A woman is a slave
of his passion, Hephaestion.

352
00:41:21,232 --> 00:41:24,444
Eh, of course there are exceptions,
and we must honor them.

353
00:41:24,693 --> 00:41:28,781
Like Pallas Athena,
goddess of wisdom and war.

354
00:41:29,031 --> 00:41:31,867
But never forget, she
was not born from the loins of Zeus...

355
00:41:32,118 --> 00:41:33,661
but from his mind.

356
00:41:33,911 --> 00:41:37,457
Now, you think about all this,
my young frogs...

357
00:41:37,706 --> 00:41:41,752
because in you lies the future
of Greek civilization.

358
00:41:42,003 --> 00:41:44,297
Fight for honor...

359
00:41:44,546 --> 00:41:46,424
It's the biggest goal of all.

360
00:41:46,674 --> 00:41:49,135
Master our basic emotions.

361
00:41:49,385 --> 00:41:52,972
Follow reason,
the divine part in each of you.

362
00:41:53,222 --> 00:41:54,640
Yes...

363
00:41:54,890 --> 00:41:58,853
loving excellence is
truly love the gods.

364
00:42:01,189 --> 00:42:02,773
Now, can you stop distracting me?

365
00:42:03,232 --> 00:42:05,818
Back to geography
and things we know.

366
00:42:06,068 --> 00:42:11,491
Is it possible that the spring
of Egypt's mighty Nile River...

367
00:42:11,740 --> 00:42:15,328
might be in these mountains
distant from the Outer Earth?

368
00:42:15,661 --> 00:42:21,542
If true, a browser
experienced person could travel here...

369
00:42:21,792 --> 00:42:26,588
by this river, heading east,
to the great plain of India...

370
00:42:26,839 --> 00:42:31,469
to the Eastern Ocean,
at the end of the world...

371
00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:35,390
and by this route, up the Nile...

372
00:42:35,639 --> 00:42:41,521
cross Egypt, cross the Sea
Inland and return home to Greece.

373
00:42:42,313 --> 00:42:45,607
If these frogs looked away...

374
00:42:45,858 --> 00:42:49,070
and use their advantage in the center...

375
00:42:49,778 --> 00:42:51,697
Greece would dominate the world!

376
00:42:52,115 --> 00:42:57,870
Why, master, in myths, these lands
What lines are known?

377
00:42:59,456 --> 00:43:03,751
India, where Heracles
and Dionysus traveled.

378
00:43:04,377 --> 00:43:08,047
All these men who went to
the East, Theseus, Jason, Achilles...

379
00:43:08,298 --> 00:43:09,882
they were victorious!

380
00:43:10,133 --> 00:43:13,719
From generation to generation,
the stories were passed down.

381
00:43:13,970 --> 00:43:16,473
Why, unless they were real?

382
00:43:16,722 --> 00:43:20,351
Tales of the Amazons? Minotaur, Gorgon,
Icarus flying towards the sun?

383
00:43:20,726 --> 00:43:22,353
No, Alexander.

384
00:43:22,603 --> 00:43:26,232
Only the population believes them,
as he believes in almost everything.

385
00:43:26,690 --> 00:43:31,028
We are here exactly to
educate ourselves and forget such foolish passions.

386
00:43:31,571 --> 00:43:35,741
But if we are superior to the Persians,
Why don't we master them?

387
00:43:36,617 --> 00:43:41,414
Our Greek dream is, and always has been,
head to the East.

388
00:43:42,332 --> 00:43:44,459
My father always wanted this.

389
00:43:45,126 --> 00:43:50,465
The East usually swallows
men and their dreams.

390
00:43:50,714 --> 00:43:54,010
But even so, to think that these myths...

391
00:43:54,260 --> 00:43:56,471
propel us to greater glory.

392
00:43:56,846 --> 00:43:59,056
Why is it wrong to follow them?

393
00:44:00,224 --> 00:44:02,893
I can only warn you, not teach you.

394
00:44:03,978 --> 00:44:06,772
Be careful with your dreams.

395
00:44:08,024 --> 00:44:11,528
The gods have a way of punishing
such pride.

396
00:44:22,121 --> 00:44:26,167
<i>More ambitious, Filipe now
plans the invasion of Persia.</i>

397
00:44:32,673 --> 00:44:36,719
That's all you can do, Clito? Come back
to the phalanx, I'll ride it!

398
00:44:36,969 --> 00:44:39,430
No, don't ride, Your Majesty!

399
00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:40,764
Not with the leg in that state.

400
00:44:41,015 --> 00:44:43,100
He got hit too much.

401
00:44:45,853 --> 00:44:48,439
Noble king, he is a fiery animal...

402
00:44:48,689 --> 00:44:52,402
fiery and worthy of
Philip of Macedonia.

403
00:44:52,652 --> 00:44:54,737
For three and a half talents...

404
00:44:54,987 --> 00:44:57,574
not profit
nothing but for His Majesty...

405
00:44:58,032 --> 00:45:01,327
Why would I want this
beast? I already have a wife.

406
00:45:02,786 --> 00:45:04,080
Do I look that old?

407
00:45:11,003 --> 00:45:13,839
Stay down, stay down.

408
00:45:28,605 --> 00:45:32,108
Kill for free. You're too nervous
for battle, sell him to the butcher.

409
00:45:32,358 --> 00:45:35,778
Buy it for me, dad!
I'll ride it.

410
00:45:40,575 --> 00:45:41,992
What if I can't?

411
00:45:42,243 --> 00:45:45,580
- I'll pay for it myself.
- How? Singing?

412
00:45:45,829 --> 00:45:47,498
I will pay you!

413
00:45:47,748 --> 00:45:51,669
This horse cannot
be assembled. You're crazy.

414
00:45:54,046 --> 00:45:57,049
Yes, it can be assembled.
For me.

415
00:45:57,383 --> 00:46:00,010
If you tame it, it will be yours.

416
00:46:00,261 --> 00:46:02,138
For half the price.

417
00:46:02,388 --> 00:46:04,557
The horse will kill the kid,
Philip.

418
00:46:04,807 --> 00:46:06,850
- You're going to break it in half.
- It will be?

419
00:46:07,101 --> 00:46:09,853
Maybe she still
turn him into a musician.

420
00:46:25,328 --> 00:46:28,331
You don't like your shadow, do you?

421
00:46:28,581 --> 00:46:32,460
It's like a dark spirit
wanting to grab him.

422
00:46:32,710 --> 00:46:35,713
See? That's us.

423
00:46:37,465 --> 00:46:40,384
It's just Apollo's trick.

424
00:46:40,635 --> 00:46:45,014
He is the God of the sun!

425
00:46:48,351 --> 00:46:52,563
But I'll show you how to fool him.
Let's do this together.

426
00:47:02,823 --> 00:47:06,160
The kid doesn't know how to tame,
Philip. You might get hurt.

427
00:47:06,411 --> 00:47:10,582
He will have to find out
this alone. It's about time.

428
00:47:10,831 --> 00:47:12,667
Good idea.

429
00:47:12,917 --> 00:47:16,045
For hours now, Filipe, I've been wondering
if he really has your blood.

430
00:47:16,295 --> 00:47:18,839
- I just worry...
- What happened, Átalo?

431
00:47:19,090 --> 00:47:20,132
Nothing.

432
00:47:20,383 --> 00:47:25,263
I was just trying to understand how people
they like to see you and Eurídice together.

433
00:47:29,350 --> 00:47:30,435
Come on, boy.

434
00:47:31,477 --> 00:47:34,146
You ride that horse,
and by Zeus I say...

435
00:47:34,397 --> 00:47:36,065
that can dominate the world.

436
00:48:00,339 --> 00:48:02,174
Bucephalus.

437
00:48:02,425 --> 00:48:06,345
That's what I'm going to call him.
Strong and stubborn.

438
00:48:09,098 --> 00:48:12,184
Bucephalus and Alexander.

439
00:48:13,770 --> 00:48:17,356
Come. Let's ride together!

440
00:48:50,139 --> 00:48:52,057
He still has a little
of Titan within you!

441
00:48:52,308 --> 00:48:56,729
Attalus! Clito! For the love of Zeus,
he defeated them!

442
00:49:01,734 --> 00:49:05,070
Now, Bucephalus, show them.

443
00:49:37,978 --> 00:49:39,313
My son.

444
00:49:39,564 --> 00:49:41,148
My son!

445
00:49:53,202 --> 00:49:54,995
<b>CAVES IN PELA, MACEDONIA</b>

446
00:49:55,371 --> 00:49:57,916
The world was nothing more than
blood feuds.

447
00:50:01,335 --> 00:50:03,504
You remember Prometheus, don't you?

448
00:50:03,755 --> 00:50:07,508
Stole the secret of fire
and gave it to the man.

449
00:50:07,759 --> 00:50:10,261
Zeus was so angry...

450
00:50:10,511 --> 00:50:13,514
who chained
Prometheus in the greater Caucasus...

451
00:50:13,765 --> 00:50:17,476
and every day his eagle pecked
the poor man's liver.

452
00:50:18,269 --> 00:50:22,815
Every night, the liver regenerated,
to be eaten the next day.

453
00:50:23,065 --> 00:50:24,233
What a miserable fate.

454
00:50:26,861 --> 00:50:33,868
Oedipus gouged out his own eyes when
discovered that he had murdered his father...

455
00:50:34,243 --> 00:50:39,457
and married his mother.
The truth came too late.

456
00:50:39,707 --> 00:50:41,459
<i>Jason...</i>

457
00:50:42,668 --> 00:50:45,463
went east and brought back
the Golden Fleece...

458
00:50:45,713 --> 00:50:48,800
and married a barbarian, Medea.

459
00:50:49,049 --> 00:50:53,345
So when he left her for a
younger wife...

460
00:50:53,596 --> 00:50:57,391
Medea killed the
his two sons for revenge.

461
00:51:09,570 --> 00:51:12,657
My mother would never hurt me.

462
00:51:19,789 --> 00:51:22,667
It's never easy to run away
of our mothers, Alexandre.

463
00:51:23,125 --> 00:51:26,504
During life,
be careful with women.

464
00:51:27,047 --> 00:51:29,632
They are much more dangerous than men.

465
00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:40,601
I'm sure you remember Achilles
from Tales of <i>Troy.</i>

466
00:51:40,935 --> 00:51:43,730
- He's my favorite.
- Why?

467
00:51:43,980 --> 00:51:47,734
Because he loved Patroclus
and avenged his death.

468
00:51:48,609 --> 00:51:51,612
Because he lived without fear,
and killed Héctor.

469
00:51:51,863 --> 00:51:55,658
Some say he was a fool with a gun
who only fought for himself, not for the Greeks.

470
00:51:55,909 --> 00:51:57,451
But he was a hero.

471
00:51:57,702 --> 00:51:59,746
The best of Troy.

472
00:51:59,996 --> 00:52:00,955
And his fate?

473
00:52:01,205 --> 00:52:04,918
Die young,
but covered in glory.

474
00:52:05,167 --> 00:52:06,878
Did he have a choice?

475
00:52:07,545 --> 00:52:13,426
Yes. Live a long life,
however, without glory.

476
00:52:16,554 --> 00:52:20,934
You dream of glory, Alexandre.
Your mother encourages you.

477
00:52:21,183 --> 00:52:24,771
But there is no glory without suffering,
and she doesn't allow that.

478
00:52:25,021 --> 00:52:26,856
She weakens him.

479
00:52:28,399 --> 00:52:30,735
The gods never make it easy
for men.

480
00:52:30,985 --> 00:52:32,236
Look.

481
00:52:32,737 --> 00:52:39,702
Heracles, even after
complete your twelve labors...

482
00:52:41,412 --> 00:52:46,834
was punished with madness
and killed his three children.

483
00:52:47,877 --> 00:52:49,587
Poor Heracles.

484
00:52:51,672 --> 00:52:53,758
Great Heracles.

485
00:52:54,008 --> 00:52:56,427
All greatness comes from loss.

486
00:52:56,677 --> 00:53:02,600
Even you, one day, will be judged
severely by the gods.

487
00:53:02,850 --> 00:53:04,644
When I'm king like you, father?

488
00:53:04,894 --> 00:53:08,606
Don't rush this day, boy.
You risk everything.

489
00:53:09,732 --> 00:53:13,820
My father threw me into battle
before I knew how to fight.

490
00:53:14,070 --> 00:53:16,530
When I killed my first man,
he said:

491
00:53:16,781 --> 00:53:18,950
"Now you know."

492
00:53:19,575 --> 00:53:23,830
At the time, I hated him,
But now I understand why.

493
00:53:24,080 --> 00:53:26,415
A king is not born, Alexander.

494
00:53:26,666 --> 00:53:30,336
It is done. Of steel and suffering.

495
00:53:31,545 --> 00:53:35,549
A king needs to know
hurt those you love.

496
00:53:39,345 --> 00:53:41,764
It's a lonely life.
Ask Heracles.

497
00:53:43,016 --> 00:53:46,477
Ask any of them.
Fate is cruel.

498
00:53:47,728 --> 00:53:50,773
No man or woman can be
very beautiful or powerful...

499
00:53:51,024 --> 00:53:53,359
without a disaster happening.

500
00:53:53,609 --> 00:54:00,116
They laugh when you go too high and
you destroy, on a whim, everything you have built.

501
00:54:00,616 --> 00:54:04,495
The glory they give,
in the end, they take it.

502
00:54:05,913 --> 00:54:09,042
They turn us into slaves.

503
00:54:25,099 --> 00:54:29,187
The truth is in our hearts,
and no one will tell you that except your father.

504
00:54:29,896 --> 00:54:32,690
Men hate gods.

505
00:54:33,816 --> 00:54:35,860
The only reason why
We love any of them...

506
00:54:36,110 --> 00:54:38,238
It's because we fear the worst.

507
00:54:39,155 --> 00:54:42,533
- What's worse?
- The Titans.

508
00:54:43,076 --> 00:54:45,828
If they were released someday...

509
00:54:46,079 --> 00:54:49,123
there would be darkness
like we've never seen before.

510
00:54:49,373 --> 00:54:51,333
Could they return one day?

511
00:54:52,626 --> 00:54:55,713
Zeus could not arrest the Titans
forever beneath Mount Olympus?

512
00:54:55,963 --> 00:54:57,924
They say that when Zeus...

513
00:54:58,716 --> 00:55:01,261
He burned them with his lightning...

514
00:55:01,510 --> 00:55:04,264
they took the ashes of the Titans
and, for revenge...

515
00:55:04,513 --> 00:55:06,974
mixed them with ashes
of mortal men.

516
00:55:07,225 --> 00:55:08,517
Why?

517
00:55:12,897 --> 00:55:14,941
Who knows these things?

518
00:55:15,775 --> 00:55:18,611
One day, things will change.

519
00:55:19,862 --> 00:55:21,823
Men will change.

520
00:55:22,073 --> 00:55:25,660
But first, the gods
must change.

521
00:55:31,124 --> 00:55:33,876
But you will forget that, Alexandre.

522
00:55:35,003 --> 00:55:37,046
That's why we call them myths.

523
00:55:38,256 --> 00:55:40,716
We couldn't
remember them.

524
00:55:40,967 --> 00:55:42,260
I will remember.

525
00:55:42,969 --> 00:55:45,847
One day, I'll be on walls like these.

526
00:55:54,105 --> 00:55:56,316
<i>Alexander once said:</i>

527
00:55:56,565 --> 00:56:00,736
<i>"That's when we are with the myths
that we are more alone."</i>

528
00:56:02,113 --> 00:56:03,323
Phalanx!

529
00:56:03,572 --> 00:56:05,116
<b>BABYLON, PERSIA - 331 B.C.
13 YEARS LATER</b>

530
00:56:05,366 --> 00:56:07,243
<i>And that's how it happened,
in a dream...</i>

531
00:56:07,493 --> 00:56:11,956
<i>so mythical for all Greeks
as Achilles defeating the Trojans.</i>

532
00:56:12,207 --> 00:56:15,335
<i>In that glorious moment...</i>

533
00:56:15,584 --> 00:56:19,714
<i>Alexander was loved by everyone.</i>

534
00:56:21,924 --> 00:56:26,262
<i>But Babylon was a maiden
which was easier to penetrate...</i>

535
00:56:26,679 --> 00:56:29,224
<i>than leaving.</i>

536
00:57:18,689 --> 00:57:23,194
<i>Sikander! Sikander!</i>

537
00:57:48,052 --> 00:57:53,266
Aristotle might call them
barbarians, but never saw Babylon.

538
00:57:53,515 --> 00:57:58,062
There's enough gold here to sustain
three generations of Macedonian armies.

539
00:57:58,438 --> 00:58:01,065
And Macedonia soon
you would be corrupted, Cassandro.

540
00:58:01,523 --> 00:58:03,525
A lot of wealth attracts crows.

541
00:58:03,776 --> 00:58:06,070
Not for men
who fought, I believe.

542
00:58:07,196 --> 00:58:11,284
We will pay you well, Antigonus,
but not to make them mercenaries.

543
00:58:11,533 --> 00:58:13,202
It looks like Filipe is giving a speech.

544
00:58:14,203 --> 00:58:15,704
Philip never saw Babylon.

545
00:58:16,664 --> 00:58:18,374
No, you never saw it, Hephaestion.

546
00:58:20,335 --> 00:58:22,211
- Hello!
- Hello!

547
00:58:22,711 --> 00:58:26,215
Alexandre, I know you think I am
a prim old man...

548
00:58:26,466 --> 00:58:28,926
but despite these differences
know that...

549
00:58:29,177 --> 00:58:32,472
your father
would be proud of you.

550
00:58:34,556 --> 00:58:36,725
Thank you, Parmenion.

551
00:58:36,976 --> 00:58:41,481
And I ask you to forgive
my anger and my pride.

552
00:58:41,730 --> 00:58:43,524
They also blinded me.

553
00:58:47,487 --> 00:58:50,781
Magnificent continental work
of the last century.

554
00:58:51,324 --> 00:58:53,451
The golden years, Alexandre.

555
00:58:53,701 --> 00:58:56,787
Of great value to Athens
and for our alliances.

556
00:58:57,038 --> 00:58:59,248
Take back what is ours...

557
00:58:59,499 --> 00:59:01,709
but spare what belongs to the Persians.

558
00:59:05,296 --> 00:59:06,964
Yes.

559
00:59:07,715 --> 00:59:11,177
We are the richest men
of the world, my friends.

560
00:59:11,427 --> 00:59:12,928
Not if we keep giving everything
for others.

561
00:59:13,179 --> 00:59:16,140
The grandchildren of goat herders...

562
00:59:16,391 --> 00:59:20,478
now we control <i></i> millions
of square kilometers.

563
00:59:21,354 --> 00:59:22,688
But...

564
00:59:23,689 --> 00:59:29,529
none of you fear that this great fortune
can lead us all to destruction.

565
00:59:29,778 --> 00:59:31,364
You underestimate us.

566
00:59:31,613 --> 00:59:35,201
While Darius
breathe, he is the legitimate king of Asia...

567
00:59:35,452 --> 00:59:37,995
and I'm just the king of the air.

568
00:59:38,246 --> 00:59:43,167
But he has no power! It's lost
in the mountains, without an army.

569
00:59:43,418 --> 00:59:46,587
As long as you remain lost,
may believe him.

570
00:59:46,837 --> 00:59:49,757
Only when he is found
that will be decided.

571
00:59:51,717 --> 00:59:53,636
It looks like you've already made up your mind.

572
00:59:53,886 --> 00:59:56,722
We have to do what we didn't do:

573
00:59:56,973 --> 00:59:58,975
We have to hunt Darius
until the end.

574
00:59:59,225 --> 01:00:02,645
- That wasn't your father's mission.
- I'm not my father.

575
01:00:05,315 --> 01:00:07,567
Come on. You forgot
so quickly?

576
01:00:07,817 --> 01:00:08,776
Fortune favors the bold!

577
01:00:14,031 --> 01:00:16,784
That's why Dario wanted to return so much.

578
01:00:17,034 --> 01:00:19,745
One for every night of the year.

579
01:00:46,272 --> 01:00:48,774
How will I return
to Lysimacha after seeing this?

580
01:00:49,025 --> 01:00:53,237
I advise you not to touch them,
Leonato. Let me do this.

581
01:01:11,964 --> 01:01:13,924
Aristotle can
have been prophetic.

582
01:01:17,845 --> 01:01:22,099
These images will not deceive us with
their beauty and degrade our soul?

583
01:01:52,129 --> 01:01:55,633
Bagoas, great king. Son of Darius.

584
01:01:55,883 --> 01:01:57,385
Bagoas.

585
01:01:57,677 --> 01:02:00,555
Well castrated, Your Majesty.

586
01:02:00,804 --> 01:02:02,306
Successful.

587
01:02:02,557 --> 01:02:05,726
It was certainly one of the favorites
of the great king.

588
01:02:08,229 --> 01:02:11,941
Eh, he has good records
over the years.

589
01:02:14,151 --> 01:02:17,905
How old are you now, Bagoas?
Eighteen, 19?

590
01:02:18,197 --> 01:02:21,284
- Where does he come from?
- From the north, sir.

591
01:02:23,160 --> 01:02:25,496
From the mountains near Susa.

592
01:02:25,746 --> 01:02:27,582
You speak our language.

593
01:02:27,831 --> 01:02:31,252
- Great. I would like to learn yours.
- You can learn, my lord.

594
01:02:44,890 --> 01:02:47,059
So tell me, Bagoas...

595
01:02:47,435 --> 01:02:50,521
my eyes deceive me,
Or would you like to be released...

596
01:02:50,771 --> 01:02:52,356
to return to
your homeland?

597
01:02:56,777 --> 01:02:59,280
My whole family died a long time ago
time, great king.

598
01:02:59,780 --> 01:03:03,242
With your permission, I will stay.

599
01:03:06,454 --> 01:03:07,913
Well done, Bagoas.

600
01:03:09,123 --> 01:03:11,668
Ptolemy, manage this.

601
01:03:14,587 --> 01:03:16,839
The same goes for each person
in the harem...

602
01:03:17,089 --> 01:03:18,633
woman and eunuch.

603
01:03:18,882 --> 01:03:21,969
Whoever wants to go home,
to your families, leave.

604
01:03:22,428 --> 01:03:23,596
What?

605
01:03:23,846 --> 01:03:27,057
Did you hear, boys? Free us.

606
01:03:47,662 --> 01:03:49,038
Don't worry, Alexander.

607
01:03:49,288 --> 01:03:52,250
- I'm on your side.
- Skirt.

608
01:04:00,759 --> 01:04:04,303
Great King Alexander.

609
01:04:07,306 --> 01:04:09,308
The princess of a thousand roses...

610
01:04:09,559 --> 01:04:12,228
older daughter
old woman of the once great king Darius...

611
01:04:13,813 --> 01:04:15,898
Statira.

612
01:04:16,441 --> 01:04:17,858
Noble Alexander...

613
01:04:25,283 --> 01:04:28,620
I come to beg for my life...

614
01:04:28,869 --> 01:04:29,995
from my sisters...

615
01:04:31,372 --> 01:04:33,916
my mother and my grandmother.

616
01:04:38,755 --> 01:04:42,883
You were not mistaken, Princess Statira.

617
01:04:43,134 --> 01:04:44,927
He is also Alexander.

618
01:04:48,931 --> 01:04:50,433
Please...

619
01:04:51,309 --> 01:04:54,604
I beg for life
of my family.

620
01:04:56,188 --> 01:04:59,317
- Sell me as a slave, but don't...
- Look now...

621
01:04:59,567 --> 01:05:01,360
in my eyes...

622
01:05:02,779 --> 01:05:03,822
princess.

623
01:05:05,824 --> 01:05:07,408
and tell me...

624
01:05:07,950 --> 01:05:10,161
how you would like to be treated.

625
01:05:12,831 --> 01:05:14,749
Like what I am.

626
01:05:14,999 --> 01:05:16,959
A princess.

627
01:05:20,338 --> 01:05:21,964
So be it, then.

628
01:05:23,716 --> 01:05:26,761
You and your family will be
treated as if they were mine.

629
01:05:29,430 --> 01:05:32,642
They will live in this palace
for as long as they want.

630
01:05:33,309 --> 01:05:36,646
Want something more from me,
my noble princess?

631
01:05:39,398 --> 01:05:40,775
No.

632
01:05:42,026 --> 01:05:44,863
Everything I want...

633
01:05:45,112 --> 01:05:47,948
I already asked.

634
01:05:49,158 --> 01:05:50,993
It's truly...

635
01:05:51,243 --> 01:05:52,912
a queen.

636
01:05:59,418 --> 01:06:01,921
<i>Yes, she would be the perfect match
for you...</i>

637
01:06:02,839 --> 01:06:04,716
<i>but you don't do anything.</i>

638
01:06:04,965 --> 01:06:08,469
You've been in Babylon for three months,
and you leave me in Pella...

639
01:06:08,720 --> 01:06:12,849
at the mercy of your enemies,
which are many.

640
01:06:13,098 --> 01:06:16,143
Antipater, now accustomed
to the power you gave him.

641
01:06:16,477 --> 01:06:18,855
<i>I see him getting stronger.</i>

642
01:06:26,237 --> 01:06:31,033
<i>I'm sure he says
in secret with Parmenion, who is dangerous.</i>

643
01:06:31,283 --> 01:06:34,286
But be careful, above all,
with those closest to you.

644
01:06:34,871 --> 01:06:35,914
<i>They're like snakes...</i>

645
01:06:37,164 --> 01:06:38,374
<i>and can be corrupted.</i>

646
01:06:38,750 --> 01:06:40,167
General Craterus!

647
01:06:43,087 --> 01:06:47,633
<i>Cassander is the son of Antipater.</i>

648
01:06:47,884 --> 01:06:51,554
<i>Even Clito, his father's favorite.</i>

649
01:06:51,804 --> 01:06:54,181
<i>And Ptolemy? He's your friend, yes...</i>

650
01:06:54,432 --> 01:06:56,601
But be careful, anyone who thinks too much...

651
01:06:57,226 --> 01:06:59,437
<i>ends up blinding himself.</i>

652
01:07:02,815 --> 01:07:05,359
<i>I'm just not going to talk about Hephaestion.</i>

653
01:07:06,277 --> 01:07:08,905
<i>But you enrich them all...</i>

654
01:07:09,154 --> 01:07:14,911
<i>while you and your mother
live in generous poverty.</i>

655
01:07:15,703 --> 01:07:18,080
<i>Why don't you ever believe me?</i>

656
01:07:18,873 --> 01:07:24,670
<i>Only a dark mind like mine
can know the secrets of the heart...</i>

657
01:07:24,921 --> 01:07:27,465
<i>because they are
dark, Alexandre.</i>

658
01:07:27,757 --> 01:07:30,301
So dark.

659
01:07:30,551 --> 01:07:31,552
But in you...

660
01:07:32,136 --> 01:07:36,975
<i>the son of Zeus,
shines the light of the world.</i>

661
01:07:37,224 --> 01:07:41,186
Your companions will be shadows
in the land of the dead...

662
01:07:41,437 --> 01:07:45,733
when you are a name written for
always in History as the light...

663
01:07:45,984 --> 01:07:50,279
most glorious and brightest of youth,
eternally young, and inspiring.

664
01:07:50,529 --> 01:07:53,992
There will never be another Alexander
like you:

665
01:07:54,241 --> 01:07:56,703
Alexander the Great.

666
01:07:57,954 --> 01:08:01,457
<i>Remember, take me to
to Babylon, as he promised.</i>

667
01:08:01,708 --> 01:08:04,836
<i>I will help you: they will know that if I
do harm...</i>

668
01:08:05,085 --> 01:08:08,882
they will face my wrath,
as queen of Babylon.

669
01:08:10,800 --> 01:08:14,428
She takes a high price
for nine months in the womb.

670
01:08:14,679 --> 01:08:16,597
Bring it, Alexandre.

671
01:08:16,848 --> 01:08:19,475
- She'll be so happy.
- Happy?

672
01:08:20,685 --> 01:08:23,938
I am the mirror
party of her dreams.

673
01:08:26,440 --> 01:08:28,860
Stay with me tonight, Hephaestion.

674
01:08:35,616 --> 01:08:37,201
I take a shower alone.

675
01:08:38,578 --> 01:08:39,787
Thank you, Bagoas.

676
01:08:48,379 --> 01:08:49,463
What bothers you?

677
01:08:51,716 --> 01:08:54,844
I see in her everything I fear.

678
01:08:56,054 --> 01:08:58,431
But I have no idea what it is...

679
01:08:59,181 --> 01:09:01,183
this fear.

680
01:09:05,813 --> 01:09:09,275
She was always sure
that I was born of Zeus.

681
01:09:09,943 --> 01:09:11,861
Why, Hephaestion?

682
01:09:13,696 --> 01:09:18,284
I think there are things beyond
than we imagine...

683
01:09:19,452 --> 01:09:20,954
like lightning...

684
01:09:21,203 --> 01:09:24,164
and tales of strangers
conceptions.

685
01:09:25,917 --> 01:09:28,044
I don't doubt it.

686
01:09:28,294 --> 01:09:30,797
What are they trying to say?

687
01:09:31,047 --> 01:09:34,801
What destiny do I have?

688
01:09:36,510 --> 01:09:39,346
Well, if I'm Patroclus...

689
01:09:39,597 --> 01:09:41,808
I die first.

690
01:09:42,058 --> 01:09:44,769
Then you, Achilles.

691
01:09:50,691 --> 01:09:53,486
The general is upset.

692
01:09:54,862 --> 01:09:57,490
They question your obsession
by Darius.

693
01:09:58,158 --> 01:10:01,327
They say it wasn't in us
plans for you to be king of Asia.

694
01:10:01,577 --> 01:10:03,037
Naturally.

695
01:10:03,287 --> 01:10:07,541
They just want to go home, full
of gold, but I saw the future.

696
01:10:07,792 --> 01:10:11,004
I've seen it a thousand times, on a thousand faces!

697
01:10:11,253 --> 01:10:13,339
These people want...

698
01:10:14,090 --> 01:10:16,176
They need a change.

699
01:10:17,217 --> 01:10:19,887
Aristotle was wrong about them.

700
01:10:20,138 --> 01:10:21,722
Like this?

701
01:10:21,973 --> 01:10:24,017
See the people we conquered.

702
01:10:24,266 --> 01:10:26,226
They don't bury their dead...

703
01:10:26,477 --> 01:10:29,355
grind the enemies' skulls and take
the powder in the drink...

704
01:10:29,605 --> 01:10:31,524
copulate in public...

705
01:10:31,774 --> 01:10:36,570
How can they think, sing,
write if you don't know how to read?

706
01:10:36,821 --> 01:10:41,367
But in Alexander's army they could
go where they didn't even think was possible.

707
01:10:41,617 --> 01:10:44,620
They can be soldiers or
work in cities...

708
01:10:44,871 --> 01:10:49,000
the Alexandrias of Egypt
to the Outer Ocean.

709
01:10:49,500 --> 01:10:52,419
We can unite these lands,
Hephaestion.

710
01:10:52,670 --> 01:10:53,838
And the people...

711
01:10:54,088 --> 01:10:59,635
They say that the Alexandrias became
extensions of Alexandre himself.

712
01:11:00,386 --> 01:11:03,472
Attract people to
the cities to enslave them.

713
01:11:03,723 --> 01:11:08,895
But we freed them from Persia
where they were all slaves!

714
01:11:09,937 --> 01:11:13,191
Free the people of the world...

715
01:11:13,440 --> 01:11:17,945
would be a greater glory than
that of Achilles than that of Heracles!

716
01:11:18,196 --> 01:11:20,740
A feat worthy of Prometheus...

717
01:11:21,532 --> 01:11:24,202
who has always been a friend of men.

718
01:11:24,451 --> 01:11:26,746
Remember the fate of these heroes.

719
01:11:26,996 --> 01:11:31,125
They suffered immensely.
We all suffer.

720
01:11:31,542 --> 01:11:35,129
Your father, mine...

721
01:11:35,922 --> 01:11:38,007
everyone reached the end of their days...

722
01:11:38,258 --> 01:11:42,220
and in the end, all that matters is what you did.

723
01:11:43,554 --> 01:11:48,350
Once you told me that fear
of death drove all men.

724
01:11:48,684 --> 01:11:50,477
Are there no other forces?

725
01:11:51,729 --> 01:11:54,481
There is no love in your life...

726
01:11:56,067 --> 01:11:58,069
Alexander?

727
01:12:01,906 --> 01:12:06,535
What would you do if one day you arrived?
at the end of the world?

728
01:12:08,412 --> 01:12:11,249
I would turn around and
would conquer the opposing side.

729
01:12:16,462 --> 01:12:21,467
I wonder sometimes
if it's not your mother you're running away from.

730
01:12:22,885 --> 01:12:26,848
So many years,
so many kilometers between you.

731
01:12:28,474 --> 01:12:30,476
What do you fear?

732
01:12:31,978 --> 01:12:34,230
Who else knows these things?

733
01:12:35,815 --> 01:12:40,987
When I was a child, my mother
I thought I was divine, and my father was weak.

734
01:12:43,489 --> 01:12:46,159
What am I, Hephaestion?

735
01:12:46,408 --> 01:12:48,244
Weak, or divine?

736
01:12:51,831 --> 01:12:53,749
I just know that...

737
01:12:54,000 --> 01:12:57,003
I just trust
in you in this world.

738
01:12:57,253 --> 01:12:59,255
I missed you.

739
01:12:59,922 --> 01:13:01,049
I need you.

740
01:13:03,259 --> 01:13:04,802
You are the one I love, Hephaestion.

741
01:13:07,222 --> 01:13:09,390
Nobody else.

742
01:13:13,311 --> 01:13:16,189
You're all I care about...

743
01:13:16,438 --> 01:13:20,026
and, by the sweet breath of Aphrodite...

744
01:13:20,526 --> 01:13:23,445
I'm scared to death of losing him
this world you want so much.

745
01:13:23,863 --> 01:13:26,532
You will never lose me, Hephaestion.

746
01:13:27,158 --> 01:13:30,411
I will always be with you.

747
01:13:31,037 --> 01:13:32,955
Until the end.

<i>We hunted Darius to Bactria,
but we lost him by a matter of hours.</i>

Asked for water...

01:17:57,428 --> 01:17:58,679
And finally...

794
01:17:59,013 --> 01:18:02,141
finally,
the gods demand of us...

795
01:18:02,433 --> 01:18:05,769
that your children with these women
receive a good education...

796
01:18:06,020 --> 01:18:10,400
and military training under
our protection...

797
01:18:10,900 --> 01:18:14,820
so that they can be the new soldiers
of our kingdom...

798
01:18:15,154 --> 01:18:17,448
in Asia.

799
01:18:33,590 --> 01:18:37,718
Your father must be looking around
tomb. A tribe chief's daughter?

800
01:18:37,968 --> 01:18:40,930
- Not today, Parmenion.
- Do you call this tribal marriage legitimate?

801
01:18:41,180 --> 01:18:44,141
Do you forget, Parmenion, that my father
made a barbarian your queen?

802
01:18:44,392 --> 01:18:46,977
Yes, but few would call it one
deeply happy marriage.

803
01:18:48,312 --> 01:18:51,190
But what's the problem, Alexandre?
She is your prisoner.

804
01:18:51,441 --> 01:18:53,276
Just make her your concubine.

805
01:18:53,526 --> 01:18:56,446
Because I want a child,
Filotas, you bastard.

806
01:18:56,862 --> 01:19:02,410
Half of your nobles have sisters
who would make great Macedonian mothers.

807
01:19:02,660 --> 01:19:07,164
Having an Asian as my queen is
a sign of respect to my subjects.

808
01:19:07,498 --> 01:19:10,293
More than anything,
will unify us...

809
01:19:10,543 --> 01:19:12,545
and I may have a Macedonian one day.

810
01:19:12,795 --> 01:19:15,756
As a second wife?
You insult Macedonia.

811
01:19:16,799 --> 01:19:20,511
Our people will never accept
this woman's son as our king.

812
01:19:21,095 --> 01:19:22,555
They will get angry when
discover...

813
01:19:22,805 --> 01:19:25,308
that their husbands all have
second wives in Barbarism.

814
01:19:25,558 --> 01:19:26,517
Then they will learn.

815
01:19:26,767 --> 01:19:30,187
By the justice of Athens,
This woman has spirit!

816
01:19:30,438 --> 01:19:32,649
She will give birth to a brave son.

817
01:19:32,898 --> 01:19:34,358
Alexander!

818
01:19:35,067 --> 01:19:37,737
The honor of our kingdom is at stake.

819
01:19:37,987 --> 01:19:40,406
Exactly! What's the advantage?

820
01:19:40,657 --> 01:19:43,867
We came to Asia to punish them
for their crimes. We've already done that.

821
01:19:44,118 --> 01:19:47,538
Seven years away from home, and now
we wander...

822
01:19:47,788 --> 01:19:51,375
chasing nomads and bandits,
while Macedonia uses its men...

823
01:19:51,626 --> 01:19:54,462
for what?
To build roads in Asia?

824
01:19:54,712 --> 01:19:56,673
To give cities to these people?

825
01:19:56,922 --> 01:19:58,132
And now make them an army?

826
01:19:58,382 --> 01:20:01,885
Found cities and expand our
reach is not wandering...

827
01:20:02,136 --> 01:20:04,263
- What is the benefit for Macedonia?
- She's much richer!

828
01:20:04,514 --> 01:20:06,849
- See what you offer them!
- With all due respect to your age...

829
01:20:07,099 --> 01:20:10,227
if you had fought better
in Gaugamela, we would have Darius...

830
01:20:10,478 --> 01:20:13,731
- How dare you, Nearchus?
- It's "General Nearco", idiot.

831
01:20:13,981 --> 01:20:17,527
There were few of us! Not even my father...

832
01:20:17,777 --> 01:20:19,903
- nor could anyone have done anything!
- Filotas!

833
01:20:26,118 --> 01:20:28,496
Alexander, I know you
since you were born.

834
01:20:29,455 --> 01:20:32,417
I supported you when your father died.

835
01:20:32,667 --> 01:20:35,211
At the very least, for the love of Zeus...

836
01:20:35,503 --> 01:20:38,631
and with respect to the Council that
crowned you...

837
01:20:38,881 --> 01:20:40,633
give us a Macedonian heir!

838
01:20:41,092 --> 01:20:42,510
A Macedonian heir!

839
01:20:49,141 --> 01:20:50,893
I heard you well.

840
01:20:51,143 --> 01:20:52,937
Parmenion!

841
01:20:53,187 --> 01:20:56,649
After the wedding, come back
with two brigades to Babylon. You...

842
01:20:57,108 --> 01:21:01,946
and Antipater, in Greece, will maintain
the empire and will fuel this mission.

843
01:21:02,697 --> 01:21:04,783
I will go with my army
to Maracanda.

844
01:21:05,032 --> 01:21:08,911
I pray to Apollo that he understands how
turned away from his father's path!

845
01:21:09,161 --> 01:21:11,623
Cursed be you, Parmenion,
by the gods and by their Apollo!

846
01:21:11,872 --> 01:21:15,209
My father had courage,
not an excess of reason, like you!

847
01:21:15,460 --> 01:21:19,338
He never desired war,
nor did he boast so much about it.

848
01:21:19,589 --> 01:21:24,761
Consult your Council peers
as equals, in the Macedonian way!

849
01:21:25,010 --> 01:21:27,346
It wasn't just based on your desires!

850
01:21:27,597 --> 01:21:30,975
I went further than he dreamed!

851
01:21:31,225 --> 01:21:32,477
Boy...

852
01:21:32,727 --> 01:21:35,020
we are in new worlds.

853
01:21:36,021 --> 01:21:39,692
Alexander, be sensible!

854
01:21:39,942 --> 01:21:42,027
Should they really be like us?

855
01:21:42,528 --> 01:21:44,447
Sharing our rewards?

856
01:21:44,697 --> 01:21:46,658
Do you still remember what
Aristotle said?

857
01:21:46,907 --> 01:21:48,159
An Asian?

858
01:21:48,409 --> 01:21:52,079
What are nuptial vows for race
who never kept his word to us?

859
01:21:52,330 --> 01:21:54,332
- Aristotle be damned!
- Alexander!

860
01:21:54,582 --> 01:21:55,792
By Zeus and the gods...

861
01:21:56,167 --> 01:22:00,338
what makes you so superior
them, Cassandro?

862
01:22:00,588 --> 01:22:05,259
You think you are better than you are. You
and those like you are like that!

863
01:22:06,344 --> 01:22:07,887
Alexander.

864
01:22:10,849 --> 01:22:15,269
What disturbs me most is not the lack
respect my opinion!

865
01:22:18,606 --> 01:22:22,067
It's everyone's contempt for a world
much older than ours!

866
01:22:54,934 --> 01:22:57,228
If I ever kneel like this
for any man...

867
01:22:57,478 --> 01:23:00,147
- kill me.
- Have another drink, Clito.

868
01:23:00,815 --> 01:23:03,860
- Shouldn't you be linked to a king?
- Clito.

869
01:23:04,569 --> 01:23:08,781
Alexandre, you seem weak when
do not accept these honors.

870
01:23:09,031 --> 01:23:12,493
I understand, my dear father,
but it is against the ways of the Greeks.

871
01:23:12,744 --> 01:23:14,954
So the Greek ways are weak.

872
01:23:15,204 --> 01:23:17,874
I still think she got the best
him in this bargain.

873
01:23:18,123 --> 01:23:21,126
My daughter, Roxane...

874
01:23:21,377 --> 01:23:23,254
would be a good wife
for you.

875
01:23:23,504 --> 01:23:25,840
She would kill for you.

876
01:23:30,135 --> 01:23:31,596
Mr Sikander...

877
01:23:31,846 --> 01:23:35,182
ruler of heaven...

878
01:23:37,226 --> 01:23:39,019
and the earth.

879
01:23:44,734 --> 01:23:48,028
In honor of this great alliance...

880
01:23:48,279 --> 01:23:51,240
I, Oxiartes...

881
01:23:51,490 --> 01:23:54,660
- I offer you these great gifts.
- Alexander...

882
01:23:54,911 --> 01:23:57,872
I would like to make a toast to you
in the name of my people.

883
01:24:02,501 --> 01:24:04,295
Good morning, sir.

884
01:24:05,504 --> 01:24:08,215
Come on, Alexander. Give us a kiss.

885
01:24:24,565 --> 01:24:27,735
We must fight for you, Alexandre.

886
01:24:27,986 --> 01:24:29,779
It will be bloody.

887
01:24:31,865 --> 01:24:33,741
Who is the bear?

888
01:24:35,409 --> 01:24:37,161
Parmenion.

889
01:24:37,662 --> 01:24:40,456
You have been in complete control
of its supply lines.

890
01:24:40,707 --> 01:24:42,750
His pessimism is infectious.

891
01:24:43,376 --> 01:24:45,378
But he will remain loyal...

892
01:24:46,921 --> 01:24:49,131
while your child is with us.

893
01:27:06,519 --> 01:27:07,561
<i>I.!</i>

894
01:27:15,361 --> 01:27:20,282
Her eyes say
I like you, Alexandre.

895
01:27:21,868 --> 01:27:23,036
Maybe even too much.

896
01:27:27,456 --> 01:27:30,043
In the customs of my country...

897
01:27:30,292 --> 01:27:34,630
those who love too much
they lose everything.

898
01:27:35,131 --> 01:27:37,925
And those who love ironically...

899
01:27:39,593 --> 01:27:41,012
endure.

900
01:28:31,896 --> 01:28:33,106
I found it in Egypt.

901
01:28:36,025 --> 01:28:38,402
Whoever sold it to me said it is
from the time...

902
01:28:38,652 --> 01:28:42,698
where men worshiped the sun
and the stars.

903
01:28:48,329 --> 01:28:50,581
I will always think of you...

904
01:28:51,249 --> 01:28:53,542
like the sun...

905
01:28:53,793 --> 01:28:57,672
and I pray that your dream shines
over all men.

906
01:29:06,722 --> 01:29:08,850
I want you to have a son.

907
01:29:10,518 --> 01:29:12,895
You are a great man.

908
01:29:17,275 --> 01:29:20,320
Many will love you, Alexandre, but
no one so purely and profoundly...

909
01:29:37,337 --> 01:29:38,796
you...

910
01:29:39,047 --> 01:29:40,298
Do you love him?

911
01:29:49,557 --> 01:29:52,977
His name is Hephaestion.

912
01:30:12,121 --> 01:30:14,082
Thank you, Bagoas.

913
01:30:19,921 --> 01:30:21,547
Your kid?

914
01:30:21,797 --> 01:30:25,218
There are many ways
different to love, Roxana.

915
01:30:25,760 --> 01:30:27,595
Come.

916
01:30:42,318 --> 01:30:43,569
No.

917
01:30:43,819 --> 01:30:44,779
No, no.

918
01:31:35,496 --> 01:31:37,415
You're not afraid.

919
01:31:39,083 --> 01:31:40,876
It was to be expected.

920
01:31:42,295 --> 01:31:45,631
A man looks for a
woman on top of the world...

921
01:31:45,881 --> 01:31:47,800
and finds it.

922
01:32:05,151 --> 01:32:06,735
The myth becomes real.

923
01:32:18,039 --> 01:32:19,499
Big man?

924
01:32:19,915 --> 01:32:22,084
Sikander.

925
01:32:22,335 --> 01:32:23,711
You, I'll kill you now.

926
01:32:29,550 --> 01:32:31,135
Do it.

927
01:32:31,552 --> 01:32:34,013
End this already. I would...

928
01:32:34,680 --> 01:32:36,849
I would do the same.

929
01:32:37,808 --> 01:32:40,436
I will die a fool for this...

930
01:32:40,895 --> 01:32:42,604
love.

931
01:33:29,735 --> 01:33:31,571
My life is yours now.

932
01:33:56,471 --> 01:34:00,266
You will have my son.

933
01:34:54,737 --> 01:34:59,325
<i>Who is this woman you
do you call your queen, Alexander?</i>

934
01:34:59,576 --> 01:35:01,952
A mountain girl?

935
01:35:02,203 --> 01:35:04,664
You, plus your procreation.

936
01:35:04,914 --> 01:35:09,293
She already creates enemies with her nature
strong and clumsy.

937
01:35:13,130 --> 01:35:15,550
Don't confuse her with me.

938
01:35:15,799 --> 01:35:19,596
I was never a barbarian,
as Philip said.

939
01:35:19,845 --> 01:35:22,223
We are of the royal lineage of Achilles.

940
01:35:23,224 --> 01:35:26,269
<i>Zeus is your father.</i>

941
01:35:27,811 --> 01:35:31,774
Oh, I understand that she
brings happiness.

942
01:35:33,067 --> 01:35:34,902
But how can she help you?

943
01:35:35,570 --> 01:35:38,531
You must know that she doesn't speak
in your name...

944
01:35:38,781 --> 01:35:42,743
that is yours, and yours alone.

945
01:35:42,993 --> 01:35:45,955
Preserve it, keep it secret...

946
01:35:46,205 --> 01:35:51,294
and listen to me when I tell you,
act and act fast.

947
01:35:51,544 --> 01:35:53,463
After seven years, the people
question...

948
01:35:53,713 --> 01:35:55,923
Who is this King Alexander?

949
01:35:56,173 --> 01:36:02,012
I've already proven to you that, little by little,
Antipater erodes his authority.

950
01:36:02,263 --> 01:36:05,015
Return to Babylon and
strengthen the headquarters of your kingdom...

951
01:36:05,975 --> 01:36:08,102
<i>or go back to Macedonia, reorganize yourself...</i>

952
01:36:08,352 --> 01:36:10,813
<i>but don't chase your dream...</i>

953
01:36:11,063 --> 01:36:13,149
<i>Inside the East.</i>

954
01:36:13,399 --> 01:36:16,152
<i>Your life
and mine depend on it.</i>

955
01:36:18,028 --> 01:36:19,697
Remember:

956
01:36:19,947 --> 01:36:23,451
I only think about you...

957
01:36:23,701 --> 01:36:27,913
because you need it too
face your glorious destiny.

958
01:36:28,164 --> 01:36:30,291
<i>Think tenderly about
your mother.</i>

959
01:36:30,541 --> 01:36:31,917
<i>Take care of me.</i>

960
01:36:32,168 --> 01:36:35,713
<i>Protect me from your enemies
when you're far away.</i>

961
01:36:37,006 --> 01:36:39,883
And always remember...

962
01:36:40,134 --> 01:36:43,638
that I am the one who loves you the most.

963
01:36:49,893 --> 01:36:53,147
If you weren't just
a pale reflection...

964
01:36:53,397 --> 01:36:54,565
from my mother's heart.

965
01:37:05,785 --> 01:37:09,955
MACEDONIA “THE YEARS BEFORE

966
01:37:14,753 --> 01:37:18,256
Pregnant? Already? The little bitch.

967
01:37:18,506 --> 01:37:22,552
He will marry her in the spring,
during the feast of Dionysus.

968
01:37:22,802 --> 01:37:25,471
And when the firstborn
born of her...

969
01:37:25,722 --> 01:37:30,851
her uncle, sweet Átalo, will convince Philip
crowning the boy as successor...

970
01:37:31,143 --> 01:37:33,396
with Attalus as regent.

971
01:37:33,854 --> 01:37:35,815
And you...

972
01:37:36,065 --> 01:37:39,985
you will be sent somewhere
mission impossible...

973
01:37:40,236 --> 01:37:42,739
against some monstrous tribe
from the North...

974
01:37:42,988 --> 01:37:48,286
to be maimed in yet another battle
foolish for cattle.

975
01:37:48,536 --> 01:37:52,415
And I, no longer queen, will be
murdered.

976
01:37:52,665 --> 01:37:56,711
Your sister too,
and the rest of our family.

977
01:37:56,961 --> 01:38:01,591
I wish you could
see the light, mother.

978
01:38:01,841 --> 01:38:06,262
In fact, he took nothing away from you
you hadn't lost it a long time ago.

979
01:38:08,013 --> 01:38:10,308
The only way out is to attack.

980
01:38:10,558 --> 01:38:13,227
Advertise yours
marriage with a Macedonian now.

981
01:38:13,853 --> 01:38:18,232
Generate a pure-blood child.
It would be their people, not mine...

982
01:38:18,483 --> 01:38:21,694
and he would have no choice
but crown you.

983
01:38:21,944 --> 01:38:24,071
Kynnane is still single.

984
01:38:25,906 --> 01:38:29,869
Eurydice would be perfect, if her father,
that pig, didn't have her...

985
01:38:30,119 --> 01:38:32,664
Don't talk about my father anymore!

986
01:38:32,913 --> 01:38:35,667
He heard? Don't talk anymore.

987
01:38:36,668 --> 01:38:38,377
You're right.

988
01:38:39,420 --> 01:38:41,422
Forgive me.

989
01:38:41,673 --> 01:38:44,425
A mother loves too much.

990
01:38:50,640 --> 01:38:53,267
For whom will I sing
lullabies at night?

991
01:38:58,397 --> 01:39:03,361
I wish... I wish we could
spend more time together.

992
01:39:04,111 --> 01:39:08,574
Like we did when you were
the sweetest boy in the world.

993
01:39:13,913 --> 01:39:15,998
There was never time, Mom.

994
01:39:16,833 --> 01:39:21,713
Since I was a child, I was raised
to always be the best.

995
01:39:22,755 --> 01:39:27,218
My poor boy.
you are like Achilles...

996
01:39:27,468 --> 01:39:29,846
cursed by his greatness.

997
01:39:34,975 --> 01:39:36,477
Receive my strength.

998
01:39:42,191 --> 01:39:49,198
You can never confuse your
feelings about your duties.

999
01:39:50,157 --> 01:39:54,704
A king needs to make gestures
public to the population.

1000
01:39:54,954 --> 01:39:58,332
I know, but you will
19 years in the summer...

1001
01:39:58,583 --> 01:40:03,212
and the girls are already saying that you don't
you like them, that you like Hephaestion.

1002
01:40:03,462 --> 01:40:06,799
I understand.
This is natural in young people.

1003
01:40:07,049 --> 01:40:11,178
But if you go to Asia without
leave a successor, you will risk everything!

1004
01:40:11,429 --> 01:40:17,685
Hephaestion loves me for who I am...

1005
01:40:17,936 --> 01:40:19,061
not because of who I am.

1006
01:40:20,563 --> 01:40:24,066
Amman? Amman?

1007
01:40:26,068 --> 01:40:28,613
In the name of Dionysus...

1008
01:40:29,948 --> 01:40:36,621
understands how Filipe thinks
for your own good.

1009
01:40:36,871 --> 01:40:40,959
Your life is at stake.

1010
01:40:41,208 --> 01:40:43,669
I know all this, Alexandre.

1011
01:40:43,920 --> 01:40:46,839
You are nothing to him.

1012
01:40:47,423 --> 01:40:51,594
Their spies are inside
your closest circle...

1013
01:40:52,177 --> 01:40:55,389
to ensure that you don't plan
nothing against him.

1014
01:40:55,640 --> 01:40:58,476
And yet you sleep.

1015
01:41:00,311 --> 01:41:02,772
You will not live this year...

1016
01:41:03,022 --> 01:41:05,357
- unless you react.
- Stop!

1017
01:41:07,693 --> 01:41:10,571
I am his only worthy son.

1018
01:41:10,822 --> 01:41:12,657
Crazy woman.

1019
01:41:13,741 --> 01:41:15,785
He would never hurt me.

1020
01:41:16,911 --> 01:41:21,541
Even though Eurydice had a boy,
he would only govern at the age of 20.

1021
01:41:21,833 --> 01:41:25,211
Yes. And you would be 40.

1022
01:41:25,461 --> 01:41:31,801
Old and wise, like Parmenion.
And Philip's last son would be 20.

1023
01:41:32,052 --> 01:41:38,391
How old you are now. But
created by him. With his blood.

1024
01:41:38,892 --> 01:41:42,311
As a result, he will never
will give you the throne.

1025
01:41:42,562 --> 01:41:44,064
Never.

1026
01:41:46,148 --> 01:41:48,275
What do you want me to do?

1027
01:41:49,276 --> 01:41:51,612
Whatever is necessary.

1028
01:41:55,241 --> 01:41:58,244
Where did you lose your head?

1029
01:41:58,494 --> 01:42:00,747
There would be civil war,
clan against clan, chaos.

1030
01:42:00,997 --> 01:42:04,042
Yes. And you would win...

1031
01:42:04,291 --> 01:42:07,503
because young people love them
like a God.

1032
01:42:07,754 --> 01:42:09,714
I forbid you from talking to me
like that again!

1033
01:42:09,964 --> 01:42:13,217
Such a man would be forever persecuted
by the Furies!

1034
01:42:13,467 --> 01:42:16,470
What do you have to fear from the Furies...

1035
01:42:16,721 --> 01:42:20,100
for killing an impostor
from the throne...

1036
01:42:20,349 --> 01:42:23,394
before he kills you
and your mother?

1037
01:42:23,644 --> 01:42:25,980
Why don't you ever believe me?

1038
01:42:26,564 --> 01:42:29,692
Felipe didn't want you.

1039
01:42:30,818 --> 01:42:32,653
You had a respiratory condition...

1040
01:42:32,904 --> 01:42:35,364
and he wanted to leave it
in the mountains...

1041
01:42:35,615 --> 01:42:38,576
so that the birds
eat it.

1042
01:42:39,869 --> 01:42:42,204
What do you know, my poor child.

1043
01:42:42,455 --> 01:42:45,165
Lanice doesn't know anything
about it.

1044
01:42:45,416 --> 01:42:46,375
Lanice.

1045
01:42:47,251 --> 01:42:49,796
I was there.

1046
01:42:50,046 --> 01:42:52,256
Lanice wasn't there.

1047
01:42:52,966 --> 01:42:55,175
No, Alexander...

1048
01:42:55,426 --> 01:42:58,805
Zeus is your father.

1049
01:42:59,639 --> 01:43:01,390
<i>I slept with him
that night...</i>

1050
01:43:01,641 --> 01:43:04,351
under the wind,
like any mortal man.

1051
01:43:04,602 --> 01:43:06,437
They had never made love to me...

1052
01:43:06,687 --> 01:43:08,272
like then.

1053
01:43:08,522 --> 01:43:09,649
That's enough.

1054
01:43:10,650 --> 01:43:14,028
Half of mothers in Greece
have this fantasy.

1055
01:43:15,071 --> 01:43:17,073
I warn you, mother.

1056
01:43:17,323 --> 01:43:18,866
Don't be fooled.

1057
01:43:20,326 --> 01:43:24,622
You will treat this woman like nothing else
important than his other wives.

1058
01:43:24,998 --> 01:43:28,250
You will behave as we always have.

1059
01:43:28,501 --> 01:43:30,336
Like the first.

1060
01:43:40,638 --> 01:43:42,598
I wonder...

1061
01:43:44,017 --> 01:43:45,309
Do you ever love him?

1062
01:43:49,147 --> 01:43:50,815
What?

1063
01:43:53,151 --> 01:43:55,235
I never stopped loving him.

1064
01:43:59,866 --> 01:44:04,537
<b>SOGDIANA, NORTHEAST PERSIA
“IO YEARS LATER</b>

1065
01:44:29,520 --> 01:44:31,522
What is it, Orestes?

1066
01:44:36,276 --> 01:44:38,154
I ask for your forgiveness, my king.

1067
01:44:39,197 --> 01:44:41,323
I can't be part of this.

1068
01:44:42,950 --> 01:44:44,869
Who did this?

1069
01:44:47,747 --> 01:44:49,456
Tell me.

1070
01:44:49,707 --> 01:44:51,584
- Say it!
- Hermolau.

1071
01:45:03,387 --> 01:45:05,973
Death to all tyrants.

1072
01:45:07,516 --> 01:45:10,352
All of you, I didn't do it.

1073
01:45:11,062 --> 01:45:15,149
I knew him and loved him
since always.

1074
01:45:16,483 --> 01:45:19,195
Never find a man
as devoted as I am.

1075
01:45:19,445 --> 01:45:24,492
<i>The conspiracy, such as it was,
It upset Alexandre deeply...</i>

Remember
me for who I am.

1085
01:45:46,555 --> 01:45:52,270
I remember you, Philotas,
but not as you remind yourself...

1086
01:45:52,520 --> 01:45:54,730
And it seems to me
and for others here...

1087
01:45:54,981 --> 01:45:57,358
for the testimony given
for your lover...

that your soul

<i>No.
- We all feel...</i>

1090
01:46:04,907 --> 01:46:07,576
<i>that there was something more here
than a sexual dispute.</i>

1091
01:46:07,827 --> 01:46:09,954
<i>Alexander wanted the truth...</i>

1092
01:46:10,205 --> 01:46:12,248
<i>and Filotas' answers
they had no merit.</i>

1093
01:46:12,874 --> 01:46:16,002
<i>- Please take him.
- Alexandre put it on, quickly and silently...</i>

1094
01:46:16,252 --> 01:46:18,129
<i>- on trial by his companions...
- Remove it.</i>

guilty of treason.</i>

1097

- No, Alexandre, no!

<i>The suspects were all executed.</i>

<i>But we never learn from that.</i>

- Alexandre won't be there.

1109

<i>Necessity demanded that Alexander act.</i>

1110
01:47:13,559 --> 01:47:14,810
The infantry will follow me.

1111
01:47:15,061 --> 01:47:20,066
<i>And he closed the field just after midnight
first accusations against Filotas.</i>

1112
01:47:21,276 --> 01:47:25,196
So, go, Antigonus and Clito...

1113
01:47:25,446 --> 01:47:27,240
and they go quickly.

1114
01:47:30,118 --> 01:47:36,040
<i>Three days of hard riding took Antigonus
and Clito to Parmenion...</i>

1115
01:47:36,291 --> 01:47:39,794
<i>Philip's most loyal general.</i>

1116
01:47:46,134 --> 01:47:49,637
<i>His soldiers accepted the discovery of
guilt against Parmenion...</i>

1117
01:47:49,887 --> 01:47:52,181
<i>since they understood well
the code of revenge...</i>

1118
01:47:52,432 --> 01:47:54,600
<i>who made the head of the family
responsible...</i>

1119
01:47:54,850 --> 01:47:57,353
<i>because of everyone's behavior.</i>

1120
01:47:59,605 --> 01:48:03,818
<i>Many of us felt we would be better off
without that pompous thorn, Parmenion...</i>

1121
01:48:04,068 --> 01:48:09,324
<i>since Alexandre promoted everyone
us generously.</i>

1122
01:48:23,838 --> 01:48:28,426
If we make a bar of gold in the name of
Alexander, there would be little resistance.

1123
01:48:28,676 --> 01:48:30,845
Clito. Antigonus.

1124
01:48:31,095 --> 01:48:32,763
Parmenion.

<b>MACEDONIA - 9 YEARS BEFORE</b>

1126
01:50:46,147 --> 01:50:49,526
Come, Alexander,
drown your sadness in drink!

1127
01:50:49,775 --> 01:50:51,986
If the thirst quenched
pain, Ptolemy...

1128
01:50:55,365 --> 01:50:59,660
There is only one thing better
to win a battle, son:

1129
01:51:00,453 --> 01:51:03,289
the taste of a new woman.

1130
01:51:03,540 --> 01:51:08,336
It's much sweeter
than self-pity.

1131
01:51:08,586 --> 01:51:11,797
Pausanias, you understand me.
Go away.

1132
01:51:12,048 --> 01:51:13,508
Alexandre, I found the right one
for you!

1133
01:51:14,008 --> 01:51:16,260
- What's your name, honey?
- Antigone.

1134
01:51:16,511 --> 01:51:18,388
- What is your name?
- Antigone.

1135
01:51:20,348 --> 01:51:21,391
I love you.

1136
01:51:21,641 --> 01:51:23,017
And I love you, Clito.

1137
01:51:24,394 --> 01:51:26,770
- Please no!
- Ready.

1138
01:51:30,608 --> 01:51:32,943
I will sleep in my grave, Hephaestion.

1139
01:51:33,194 --> 01:51:35,946
While I'm alive, I prefer to dance.

1140
01:51:36,197 --> 01:51:37,865
Pausanias...

1141
01:51:38,866 --> 01:51:40,201
Who is your new friend?

1142
01:51:40,743 --> 01:51:42,786
- He has a new friend.
- Please no! No!

1143
01:51:43,037 --> 01:51:44,872
No! Please no!

1144
01:51:45,122 --> 01:51:46,499
No! Please!

1145
01:51:55,675 --> 01:51:56,717
A toast.

1146
01:51:57,343 --> 01:51:58,802
A toast!

1147
01:51:59,387 --> 01:52:04,684
I drink to our Greek friends
and to our new union:

1148
01:52:04,934 --> 01:52:10,773
Macedonia and Greece, equal
in greatness!

1149
01:52:12,900 --> 01:52:19,907
And to Philip our king, without whom
this union would not be possible!

1150
01:52:20,157 --> 01:52:22,868
Enough, Átalo, don't spend
all the air in the room!

1151
01:52:24,579 --> 01:52:30,418
And finally, I drink to the wedding
of the king with my niece, Euridice...

1152
01:52:30,668 --> 01:52:33,588
a Macedonian queen
which we can be proud of!

1153
01:52:36,757 --> 01:52:39,843
To Filipe and Eurídice...

1154
01:52:40,094 --> 01:52:43,431
and to their legitimate children!

1155
01:52:45,516 --> 01:52:46,726
Don't do that!

1156
01:52:46,976 --> 01:52:49,646
And what am I,
your son a dog? Come!

1157
01:53:01,741 --> 01:53:05,077
Quiet!

1158
01:53:05,328 --> 01:53:06,954
Quiet, all of you!

1159
01:53:07,371 --> 01:53:09,957
This is my wedding,
not a street beat!

1160
01:53:10,207 --> 01:53:12,126
Insolent bastard!

1161
01:53:12,376 --> 01:53:15,713
Apologize, for Zeus.
Don't dishonor me.

1162
01:53:15,963 --> 01:53:19,091
Defend those who defame my mother
and me?

1163
01:53:19,342 --> 01:53:22,637
- And I'm the one who dishonors you?
- Why, it looks like your mother!

1164
01:53:22,886 --> 01:53:24,805
Átalo is family now, like you!

1165
01:53:25,055 --> 01:53:27,850
So choose your relatives better!

1166
01:53:28,100 --> 01:53:31,103
I don't want to see you embarrass yourself.

1167
01:53:31,354 --> 01:53:34,440
- you curse me!
- Do I insult you?

1168
01:53:34,691 --> 01:53:37,443
Not worthy of licking
the ground my mother walks on!

1169
01:53:37,694 --> 01:53:40,697
- Puppy! Doubt your queen!
- Shame?

1170
01:53:40,946 --> 01:53:44,659
I have nothing to be ashamed of,
arrogant bastard!

1171
01:53:44,909 --> 01:53:48,621
I marry whoever I want and
I have as many children as I want...

1172
01:53:48,871 --> 01:53:51,541
and neither you nor the harpy
your mother can stop me!

1173
01:53:51,791 --> 01:53:53,334
Because, you drunk, you think...

1174
01:53:53,585 --> 01:53:56,003
that everything I do
and I say comes from her?

1175
01:53:56,254 --> 01:53:59,090
Because I know
her heart, for Hera...

1176
01:53:59,340 --> 01:54:01,467
and I see it in those eyes of yours!

1177
01:54:01,718 --> 01:54:04,053
you covet this throne too much!

1178
01:54:05,471 --> 01:54:10,810
We all know that the wolf
your mother wants me dead!

1179
01:54:11,060 --> 01:54:13,271
Keep dreaming, you two!

1180
01:54:13,521 --> 01:54:16,566
Filipe, it's the wine you're talking about.
Solve this tomorrow morning!

1181
01:54:16,816 --> 01:54:18,317
Now!

1182
01:54:19,485 --> 01:54:21,362
I order!

1183
01:54:22,614 --> 01:54:24,824
Apologize to your relative.

1184
01:54:33,541 --> 01:54:35,251
Apologize!

1185
01:54:35,501 --> 01:54:37,796
He is not related to me.

1186
01:54:41,424 --> 01:54:43,301
Good night, old man.

1187
01:54:45,010 --> 01:54:49,223
When my mother gets married again,
I'm going to invite you to the ceremony.

1188
01:54:49,974 --> 01:54:51,726
You bastard!

1189
01:54:57,565 --> 01:54:59,233
You will obey me! Come here!

1190
01:55:18,210 --> 01:55:22,047
And this is the man who will take
you from Greece to Persia?

1191
01:55:22,298 --> 01:55:24,467
You can barely get from one sofa to the other.

1192
01:55:24,925 --> 01:55:28,680
Get out of my house!
You are exiled, bastard!

1193
01:55:29,555 --> 01:55:33,017
Banned from the country!
You are not welcome here!

1194
01:55:33,726 --> 01:55:35,936
You are not my son!

1195
01:56:15,518 --> 01:56:19,647
<i>In the spring, Alexander crossed,

<i>In his dream, it was the route

1199
01:56:31,743 --> 01:56:33,536
<i>We were a mobile empire...</i>

1200
01:56:33,786 --> 01:56:37,582
<i>coming from thousands of kilometers,
from Greece.</i>

1201
01:56:37,832 --> 01:56:40,668
<i>Cooks and architects,
doctors and researchers...</i>

1202
01:56:40,919 --> 01:56:42,294
<i>loan sharks and wives...</i>

1203
01:56:42,545 --> 01:56:45,339
<i>children, lovers, prostitutes.</i>

1204
01:56:45,590 --> 01:56:47,383
<i>And slaves...</i>

1205
01:56:47,633 --> 01:56:52,096
<i>the anonymous, curved spine,
worker of this new animal.</i>

1206
01:56:52,346 --> 01:56:56,141
<i>Stacked or expanded,
better or worse...</i>

1207
01:56:57,017 --> 01:57:01,606
<i>no occupied territory
remained the same.</i>

1208
01:57:04,984 --> 01:57:06,986
<i>Despite his devotion to her...</i>

1209
01:57:07,236 --> 01:57:10,281
<i>Alexander visited the tent less
by Roxana...</i>

1210
01:57:10,531 --> 01:57:15,453
<i>while a year, then two,
happened without a successor...</i>

1211
01:57:16,370 --> 01:57:19,457
<i>hurting great pride
by Alexandre.</i>

1212
01:57:19,999 --> 01:57:22,877
Geographers say that Zeus
chained Prometheus there...

1213
01:57:23,753 --> 01:57:26,088
in one of those caves.

1214
01:57:26,839 --> 01:57:29,634
They say there is a nest of
a giant eagle just above.

1215
01:57:29,884 --> 01:57:34,680
I suppose I go down all night to
peck poor Prometheus' liver.

1216
01:57:37,308 --> 01:57:40,770
Do you remember what Aristotle
told us about these mountains?

1217
01:57:41,646 --> 01:57:43,314
I remember, yes.

1218
01:57:44,148 --> 01:57:46,233
That at this point...

1219
01:57:46,484 --> 01:57:49,612
looking back,
we would see Macedonia to the west...

1220
01:57:49,862 --> 01:57:52,406
and the Outer Ocean to the east.

1221
01:57:56,494 --> 01:58:01,708
But I fear this world is too
bigger than anyone dreamed of.

1222
01:58:01,958 --> 01:58:04,002
A world of titans.

1223
01:58:04,251 --> 01:58:08,172
The explorers traveled
all known paths.

1224
01:58:08,422 --> 01:58:10,383
There is no way through.

1225
01:58:10,967 --> 01:58:15,179
Except to the south, through India.

1226
01:58:15,513 --> 01:58:18,599
If we were gods, we would tear down
this wall and we would see the ocean.

1227
01:58:19,433 --> 01:58:21,143
We will do it, Alexandre.

1228
01:58:21,394 --> 01:58:23,980
In a few years, we will be back.

1229
01:58:24,230 --> 01:58:27,942
But first, men
they need to review their homes.

1230
01:58:29,402 --> 01:58:31,571
You found your home...

1231
01:58:31,821 --> 01:58:33,364
Ptolemy?

1232
01:58:38,078 --> 01:58:41,205
More and more, I think
he will be in Alexandria.

1233
01:58:43,416 --> 01:58:45,459
Well, at least it's warm there.

1234
01:58:46,460 --> 01:58:48,212
And Taís...

1235
01:58:49,255 --> 01:58:51,131
loved that place.

1236
01:58:53,093 --> 01:58:55,219
The woman attracts the man
back home.

1237
01:58:56,470 --> 01:59:01,308
- I don't know that feeling.
- You have Babylon, Alexandre...

1238
01:59:01,559 --> 01:59:03,519
where your mother awaits your invitation.

1239
01:59:03,937 --> 01:59:06,731
Yes, I have Babylon.

1240
01:59:06,981 --> 01:59:11,193
But every land,
every border I cross...

1241
01:59:11,444 --> 01:59:13,487
It's the end of yet another illusion.

1242
01:59:14,948 --> 01:59:17,241
I feel that death will be the last.

1243
01:59:19,911 --> 01:59:23,372
But I keep moving forward
at any cost...

1244
01:59:23,623 --> 01:59:27,127
to reach that home.

1245
01:59:32,757 --> 01:59:34,092
Where is our eagle?

1246
01:59:38,888 --> 01:59:40,848
We must continue, Ptolemy.

1247
01:59:42,266 --> 01:59:43,810
Until we find an end.

02:02:24,428 --> 02:02:25,721
Get this away from me.

1263
02:02:25,972 --> 02:02:27,849
It's a monkey. Very smart.

1264
02:02:28,099 --> 02:02:29,184
Hello, little man.

1265
02:02:30,185 --> 02:02:33,604
- Do they talk?
- No, but they sing...

1266
02:02:33,855 --> 02:02:34,981
and they make noise.

1267
02:02:41,279 --> 02:02:43,156
<i>We saw men walking around naked
in public...</i>

1268
02:02:43,405 --> 02:02:47,910
<i>and spent hours watching,
without doing anything.</i>

1269
02:02:49,745 --> 02:02:52,540
<i>And then the rain came.</i>

1270
02:02:58,296 --> 02:03:02,050
<i>We had never seen
water falling from the gods...</i>

1271
02:03:02,300 --> 02:03:04,927
<i>for 60 days and nights.</i>

1272
02:03:08,764 --> 02:03:10,766
Don't do that, Macatas.

1273
02:03:14,436 --> 02:03:15,771
What will your son tell you?

1274
02:03:16,189 --> 02:03:18,482
Let's go.
The older you are, the stronger you become.

1275
02:03:18,733 --> 02:03:20,568
Right, my king.

1276
02:03:20,818 --> 02:03:22,195
Give me my horse, Alexandre.

1277
02:03:22,444 --> 02:03:24,613
I will be with you by your side.

1278
02:03:25,531 --> 02:03:27,033
Beware of the snake!

1279
02:03:27,283 --> 02:03:28,951
<i>Everything got ruined in that rain.</i>

1280
02:03:29,202 --> 02:03:33,373
<i>Many men died miserably
because of the little snakes...</i>

1281
02:03:33,622 --> 02:03:35,958
<i>- who were everywhere on this earth.
- Clito, bring</i> the <i>healers!</i>

1282
02:03:36,209 --> 02:03:39,045
Pauvano! Someone bring Pauvano!

1283
02:03:39,295 --> 02:03:40,796
- What happened?
- It was in the neck.

1284
02:03:41,047 --> 02:03:43,465
Oh no, Zeus, no!

1285
02:03:43,716 --> 02:03:45,093
Hold on. Hold on.

1286
02:03:47,970 --> 02:03:49,264
Be brave.

1287
02:03:49,513 --> 02:03:51,140
Be brave.

1288
02:03:51,391 --> 02:03:53,268
Oh, Zeus.

1289
02:03:55,103 --> 02:03:58,480
<i>Our search for gold and glory
evaporated when we realized...</i>

1290
02:03:58,940 --> 02:04:01,067
<i>that there was none of that there.</i>

1291
02:04:01,776 --> 02:04:03,611
<i>Excitements flared.</i>

1292
02:04:03,861 --> 02:04:06,739
<i>We massacred all Indians
who resisted.</i>

1293
02:04:06,989 --> 02:04:09,033
<i>and how the local water was rotten...</i>

1294
02:04:09,284 --> 02:04:11,869
<i>we drank strong wine.</i>

1295
02:05:05,881 --> 02:05:08,592
<i>Advancing southeast...</i>

1296
02:05:08,843 --> 02:05:13,597
<i>Alexandre often returned
lands to defeated kings...</i>

1297
02:05:13,848 --> 02:05:16,392
<i>so that
become our allies.</i>

1298
02:05:16,642 --> 02:05:18,769
<i>But it didn't feel right
to the army...</i>

1299
02:05:19,020 --> 02:05:20,271
<i>that you started to wonder:</i>

1300
02:05:21,022 --> 02:05:23,107
<i>"Were we here for the riches?"</i>

1301
02:05:23,358 --> 02:05:27,236
<i>Or will Alexander
It was an insane and remorseless quest...</i>

1302
02:05:27,487 --> 02:05:30,406
<i>to imitate the glory of Heracles,
Had you forgotten about them?</i>

1303
02:05:31,324 --> 02:05:34,576
<i>Something that an army
feel quickly...</i>

1304
02:05:34,827 --> 02:05:37,705
<i>Which way is it?
the gods are turned.</i>

1305
02:05:56,391 --> 02:05:57,892
Let's go.

1306
02:06:04,690 --> 02:06:06,317
Kiss him!

1307
02:06:29,299 --> 02:06:31,884
- To Bagoas.
- To Bagoas!

1308
02:06:37,390 --> 02:06:41,519
- And to the God of my mother, Dionysus...
- To Dionysus!

1309
02:06:41,769 --> 02:06:45,940
which, according to our Indian allies,
traveled here before Heracles...

1310
02:06:46,190 --> 02:06:48,859
about six thousand years ago.

1311
02:06:49,110 --> 02:06:50,403
To a hero.

1312
02:06:50,653 --> 02:06:52,696
To a hero!

1313
02:07:12,467 --> 02:07:13,801
Roxana.

1314
02:07:20,766 --> 02:07:23,227
You will lose respect.

1315
02:07:23,478 --> 02:07:24,937
These Indians...

1316
02:07:25,188 --> 02:07:26,897
they are a low people
and perverse.

1317
02:07:27,148 --> 02:07:29,275
You don't try to understand them!

1318
02:07:29,692 --> 02:07:31,944
I try.

1319
02:07:32,195 --> 02:07:35,156
But I know one thing, Alexandre:

1320
02:07:35,406 --> 02:07:38,451
in Persia, you are a great king.

1321
02:07:38,701 --> 02:07:40,161
Here...

1322
02:07:40,411 --> 02:07:42,288
everyone hates him!

1323
02:07:45,082 --> 02:07:48,211
Let's go back to Babylon.

1324
02:07:49,379 --> 02:07:50,880
There you are strong.

1325
02:07:53,257 --> 02:07:55,385
We'll talk about that later.

1326
02:07:55,635 --> 02:07:57,178
Yes.

1327
02:07:57,428 --> 02:07:58,888
Afterwards.

1328
02:07:59,138 --> 02:08:00,598
We will talk.

1329
02:08:03,393 --> 02:08:05,353
I'll go see her.

1330
02:08:05,603 --> 02:08:06,646
Tonight.

1331
02:08:07,813 --> 02:08:09,690
I'll be waiting.

1332
02:08:11,484 --> 02:08:13,611
Good night, my king.

1333
02:08:15,154 --> 02:08:17,490
Majesty.

1334
02:08:18,991 --> 02:08:21,952
Come, Alexandre, drink with us.

1335
02:08:24,455 --> 02:08:27,584
- Alexander.
- Alexander.

1336
02:08:29,502 --> 02:08:32,380
I remember when you hated me...

1337
02:08:32,630 --> 02:08:36,217
- how his father drank.
- Now I know why.

1338
02:08:38,010 --> 02:08:41,847
Dionysus is a hero...

1339
02:08:43,182 --> 02:08:46,810
but it also corrupts minds.

1340
02:08:47,061 --> 02:08:50,106
It destroys our self-control.

1341
02:08:50,940 --> 02:08:54,402
Self-control is a lover
I have known for a long time, Ptolemy.

1342
02:08:57,905 --> 02:08:59,907
The effort is tiring to the bones.

1343
02:09:01,992 --> 02:09:04,954
And I think success is so corrupt
as failure.

1344
02:09:06,330 --> 02:09:07,831
But Dionysus...

1345
02:09:08,082 --> 02:09:10,501
Blessed be your ancient soul...

1346
02:09:10,751 --> 02:09:12,962
free me from myself.

1347
02:09:13,879 --> 02:09:17,258
And so, I'm with them.

1348
02:09:20,344 --> 02:09:23,055
I'm simply Alexandre.

1349
02:09:27,184 --> 02:09:28,978
A toast to Bagoas.

1350
02:09:30,688 --> 02:09:35,359
and the 30 thousand boys
beautiful Persians...

1351
02:09:35,610 --> 02:09:37,903
that we are training for
fight in this great army.

1352
02:09:40,948 --> 02:09:42,992
And to the memory of Philip.

1353
02:09:43,242 --> 02:09:46,078
Too bad he didn't live to see
you Macedonians...

1354
02:09:46,329 --> 02:09:49,165
transformed into an army so...

1355
02:09:49,415 --> 02:09:51,000
beautiful.

1356
02:09:53,377 --> 02:09:54,671
To Philip.

1357
02:09:54,920 --> 02:09:56,839
To a real hero.

1358
02:09:57,089 --> 02:09:59,383
Philip!

1359
02:10:02,178 --> 02:10:06,890
To Clito, and his appointment
to satrap of Bactria!

1360
02:10:07,141 --> 02:10:08,768
Clito.

1361
02:10:10,311 --> 02:10:12,938
Nice way to
say it, Ptolemy...

1362
02:10:13,189 --> 02:10:16,108
but we know what pensions are
and exile...

1363
02:10:16,359 --> 02:10:18,653
after 30 years of service.

1364
02:10:18,902 --> 02:10:20,237
Exile?

1365
02:10:20,613 --> 02:10:22,365
From what, Clito?

1366
02:10:22,615 --> 02:10:25,618
From my home, Alexandre, Macedonia.

1367
02:10:25,868 --> 02:10:29,080
You could have asked me where I wanted
spend the rest of my life.

1368
02:10:29,330 --> 02:10:33,209
Call to govern this province
important of exile?

1369
02:10:33,459 --> 02:10:36,546
His Majesty gave someone from
your closest companions...

1370
02:10:37,422 --> 02:10:39,507
such a distant province?

1371
02:10:39,758 --> 02:10:43,094
Then you won't be a good satrap.

1372
02:10:46,347 --> 02:10:47,890
Whatever.

1373
02:10:48,140 --> 02:10:51,770
I prefer to rot
in Macedonian rags...

1374
02:10:52,019 --> 02:10:54,063
shining...

1375
02:10:54,313 --> 02:10:55,398
amidst the oriental pomp.

1376
02:10:56,857 --> 02:11:00,612
I won't tremble and bow
like the liars around you:

1377
02:11:00,986 --> 02:11:04,824
-Hephaestion, Nearchus, Perdiccas.
-Hey.

1378
02:11:05,533 --> 02:11:09,995
As governor of one of
our most Asian satrapies...

1379
02:11:10,246 --> 02:11:15,000
you didn't think, Clito,
that if my Persian subjects...

1380
02:11:15,251 --> 02:11:18,129
bow before me, it's because
Is this important to them?

1381
02:11:18,379 --> 02:11:21,048
By chance I demand that
the Greeks do the same?

1382
02:11:21,466 --> 02:11:26,178
You accept offerings from the Greeks
as the son of Zeus, no?

1383
02:11:28,347 --> 02:11:29,682
Only when they are offered.

1384
02:11:29,932 --> 02:11:32,268
Why don't you refuse those compliments?

1385
02:11:32,935 --> 02:11:35,396
What freedom is this,
bow down to you?

1386
02:11:35,772 --> 02:11:38,357
You're Heracles, right?
And he was deadly.

1387
02:11:38,608 --> 02:11:40,192
But son of Zeus.

1388
02:11:40,443 --> 02:11:43,863
Like you, so young,
Can he be compared to Heracles?

1389
02:11:45,281 --> 02:11:47,032
Why not?

1390
02:11:49,744 --> 02:11:52,121
I've done more than him so far.

1391
02:11:52,371 --> 02:11:53,914
I went as far as he did...

1392
02:11:54,165 --> 02:11:55,124
maybe more.

1393
02:11:55,374 --> 02:11:57,502
Heracles did everything himself.

1394
02:11:57,752 --> 02:12:00,880
Did you conquer Asia alone?

1395
02:12:01,130 --> 02:12:02,674
Who planned the invasion
from Asia...

1396
02:12:02,923 --> 02:12:06,678
when you were still spanked
from my sister Lanice?

1397
02:12:07,011 --> 02:12:08,929
Wasn't it your father's?

1398
02:12:09,180 --> 02:12:10,973
Or his blood is not good
enough?

1399
02:12:11,599 --> 02:12:15,102
- Zeus-Amon? And that?
- You insult me, Clito!

1400
02:12:15,353 --> 02:12:17,814
Make fun of my family!
Take care!

1401
02:12:18,314 --> 02:12:21,776
Your father would never accept
barbarians as friends...

1402
02:12:22,026 --> 02:12:24,612
I wouldn't even ask us to fight
side by side with them in a war!

1403
02:12:24,863 --> 02:12:26,656
Are we not good enough?

1404
02:12:26,947 --> 02:12:29,200
I remember a time...

1405
02:12:29,450 --> 02:12:31,911
where we talked
like men, eye to eye!

1406
02:12:32,161 --> 02:12:34,747
Without bending over, crawling!

1407
02:12:35,414 --> 02:12:37,709
I remember a time
where we hunted...

1408
02:12:37,958 --> 02:12:40,503
when we fought
on the gym floor.

1409
02:12:41,086 --> 02:12:43,088
And now you kiss them?

1410
02:12:44,507 --> 02:12:49,512
Take a barbaric and homeless wife
children and dare to call her queen?

1411
02:12:52,223 --> 02:12:55,727
Go away now, Clito,
before it ruins your life.

1412
02:12:59,689 --> 02:13:03,317
Your great pride
Do you no longer fear the gods?

1413
02:13:04,527 --> 02:13:07,822
This army... this army
It's your blood, fool!

1414
02:13:08,072 --> 02:13:10,032
Without it, you are nothing!

1415
02:13:15,329 --> 02:13:18,875
You are no longer useful for this
march!

1416
02:13:19,124 --> 02:13:21,836
- Get him out of my sight!
- Am I no longer useful to you?

1417
02:13:22,086 --> 02:13:25,840
What use did I have when I saved
your dog life in Gaugamela?

1418
02:13:26,090 --> 02:13:27,091
Were you the son of Zeus?

1419
02:13:27,341 --> 02:13:29,343
What if I had let him die
There in the dust?

1420
02:13:29,594 --> 02:13:32,931
Do you think that now we would be forced
copulating with brown monkeys?

1421
02:13:33,305 --> 02:13:34,515
Leave it, Alexander!

1422
02:13:34,766 --> 02:13:36,976
Guards! Arrest him for treason!

1423
02:13:44,525 --> 02:13:46,193
- Who's with him?
- No.

1424
02:13:46,569 --> 02:13:47,904
Who is with him?

1425
02:13:48,696 --> 02:13:50,698
I call upon Father Zeus as a witness!

1426
02:13:51,073 --> 02:13:53,158
I put you on trial before him!

1427
02:13:53,409 --> 02:13:55,828
Then we'll see where it goes
this conspiracy!

1428
02:13:56,078 --> 02:13:58,247
- Arrest him!
- In the name of the gods, take him!

1429
02:13:58,706 --> 02:14:00,207
Now look at you!

1430
02:14:00,458 --> 02:14:02,835
Big white ass, Alexandre.

1431
02:14:03,085 --> 02:14:04,712
Hiding behind
of your homosexual God!

1432
02:14:04,963 --> 02:14:08,758
Or you're too old to remember...

1433
02:14:09,008 --> 02:14:11,385
whose lives did I save?

1434
02:14:11,636 --> 02:14:14,013
I'm more of a man than you
you will never be!

1435
02:14:15,180 --> 02:14:16,849
Never!

1436
02:14:17,809 --> 02:14:20,269
- He left. He left.
- Take him!

1437
02:14:20,519 --> 02:14:23,105
- Alexander! Alexander!
- Let's go!

1438
02:14:23,522 --> 02:14:25,650
What a tyrant you are!

1439
02:14:25,900 --> 02:14:28,152
A wicked tyrant you have become,
Alexander.

1440
02:14:28,402 --> 02:14:29,445
Are you talking about conspiracies against you?

1441
02:14:29,904 --> 02:14:31,363
And poor Parmenion?

1442
02:14:31,614 --> 02:14:33,199
- Parmenion?
- Yeah.

1443
02:14:33,449 --> 02:14:34,659
He served him well.

1444
02:14:34,909 --> 02:14:37,912
Look how you paid him.
You made me do your dirty work.

1445
02:14:38,162 --> 02:14:40,122
- Aren't you ashamed?
- You ungrateful wretch!

1446
02:14:40,373 --> 02:14:42,959
No one, not even my worst enemy,
spoke to me like you.

1447
02:14:43,209 --> 02:14:44,168
Listen to what I say!

1448
02:14:44,418 --> 02:14:46,420
Despot. False king.

1449
02:14:47,797 --> 02:14:50,508
You and your barbaric mother
They are a shame!

1450
02:15:15,324 --> 02:15:16,910
Clito.

1451
02:15:17,201 --> 02:15:19,037
My Clito!

1452
02:15:26,669 --> 02:15:28,212
- Let me through.
- No one can enter.

1453
02:15:28,462 --> 02:15:30,297
I'm the queen.

1454
02:15:38,347 --> 02:15:40,600
I want to see him. I waited three days.

1455
02:15:40,850 --> 02:15:43,269
He said no one,
not even you.

1456
02:15:44,604 --> 02:15:48,524
- He needs me.
- No, he doesn't need it.

1457
02:15:48,775 --> 02:15:50,234
And does he need you?

1458
02:15:52,028 --> 02:15:53,654
Hephaistion, you are mistaken.

1459
02:15:57,450 --> 02:15:59,702
The army is restless...

1460
02:15:59,953 --> 02:16:01,746
questioning.

1461
02:16:02,747 --> 02:16:04,540
Alexander...

1462
02:16:07,209 --> 02:16:08,753
They need your comfort.

1463
02:16:10,046 --> 02:16:11,631
Yes.

1464
02:16:11,881 --> 02:16:15,927
Like an old lover they forgive,
but they will never forget.

1465
02:16:16,176 --> 02:16:18,638
He was an aging drunk.

1466
02:16:18,888 --> 02:16:20,765
He was my friend.

1467
02:16:22,892 --> 02:16:25,436
His sister, Lanice, raised me.

1468
02:16:26,520 --> 02:16:28,898
And how did I pay you?

1469
02:16:30,150 --> 02:16:33,611
Two dead brothers, fighting,
and by my own hands...

1470
02:16:33,861 --> 02:16:36,196
your last remaining blood.

1471
02:16:39,617 --> 02:16:44,080
What will she do but cry
on my birthday?

1472
02:16:45,414 --> 02:16:46,457
Come.

1473
02:16:46,707 --> 02:16:47,959
You know better than anyone...

1474
02:16:48,208 --> 02:16:52,588
what great deeds are of men
who sin and never repent.

1475
02:16:52,839 --> 02:16:54,590
You are Alexander.

1476
02:16:54,841 --> 02:16:57,593
Pity and sadness will only destroy you.

1477
02:16:57,844 --> 02:17:01,889
I became so arrogant that
did I go blind?

1478
02:17:03,933 --> 02:17:04,976
Sometimes...

1479
02:17:05,225 --> 02:17:07,770
hope for the best of everyone...

1480
02:17:08,021 --> 02:17:10,898
It's arrogance.

1481
02:17:12,859 --> 02:17:15,486
Then Clito told the truth.

1482
02:17:15,736 --> 02:17:18,072
I have become a tyrant.

1483
02:17:18,948 --> 02:17:20,658
No.

1484
02:17:22,952 --> 02:17:25,038
But maybe a stranger.

1485
02:17:27,081 --> 02:17:29,333
You went too far.

1486
02:17:30,417 --> 02:17:32,879
They no longer understand it.

1487
02:17:34,839 --> 02:17:38,801
They talk about Philip now...

1488
02:17:39,052 --> 02:17:42,222
as if I were a cloud
what happens...

1489
02:17:42,889 --> 02:17:45,183
and will soon be forgotten.

1490
02:17:47,309 --> 02:17:49,145
I failed...

1491
02:17:49,395 --> 02:17:50,938
completely.

1492
02:17:53,149 --> 02:17:55,151
You are a mortal.

1493
02:17:55,401 --> 02:17:57,237
And they know it.

1494
02:17:57,486 --> 02:18:01,741
And they forgive you because you make them
they feel proud.

1495
02:18:02,575 --> 02:18:05,161
Philip once said...

1496
02:18:07,413 --> 02:18:09,999
that there is a Titan in all of us.

1497
02:18:11,125 --> 02:18:13,920
That they wait, mixed
in our ashes.

1498
02:18:19,466 --> 02:18:22,386
It wasn't because of the wine
that I killed him.

1499
02:18:22,636 --> 02:18:24,847
It was because I wanted to.

1500
02:18:33,355 --> 02:18:37,860
<b>MACEDONIA 336 B.C.
9 YEARS EARLIER</b>

1501
02:18:53,001 --> 02:18:56,212
Philip, king of Macedonia...

1502
02:18:56,462 --> 02:18:58,131
and leader of the Greeks!

1503
02:18:59,007 --> 02:19:03,970
All my life I've waited to see Greeks
bowing in respect to Macedonia.

1504
02:19:05,221 --> 02:19:07,265
Today is that day!

1505
02:19:11,936 --> 02:19:14,647
They already say:
"Philip is a great general...

1506
02:19:14,897 --> 02:19:18,693
but Alexander is
simply great."

1507
02:19:20,195 --> 02:19:22,780
But if you insult me
again...

1508
02:19:23,031 --> 02:19:24,866
I'll kill you.

1509
02:19:30,788 --> 02:19:32,248
I missed you.

1510
02:19:32,498 --> 02:19:34,959
In spring, Persia!

1511
02:19:35,210 --> 02:19:37,461
you will lead the cavalry on the right.

1512
02:19:37,712 --> 02:19:39,255
I'm honored, Dad.

1513
02:19:39,505 --> 02:19:41,716
I don't miss this
for the gold of the world.

1514
02:19:41,966 --> 02:19:44,260
That one day you will have it.

1515
02:20:00,985 --> 02:20:03,445
Becoming a 13th God.

1516
02:20:03,696 --> 02:20:05,740
He drank so much wine, my poor Philip.

1517
02:20:05,990 --> 02:20:07,950
He lost his mind.

1518
02:20:10,995 --> 02:20:13,664
- Your Majesty.
- Attalus.

1519
02:20:18,294 --> 02:20:21,089
I hope the prince appreciates it so much
the show...

1520
02:20:21,339 --> 02:20:24,175
as our regent.

1521
02:20:24,425 --> 02:20:25,885
He is very tired.

1522
02:20:30,098 --> 02:20:31,515
<i>EL.</i>

1523
02:20:34,852 --> 02:20:37,897
- Pausanias, bring the rest of the guard.
- Royal guard!

1524
02:20:38,273 --> 02:20:40,983
To the arena! On the march!

1525
02:20:41,234 --> 02:20:44,028
Without the guard, Your Majesty?
In this crowd?

1526
02:20:44,279 --> 02:20:47,990
- Lots of Greeks.
- Clito, Clito.

1527
02:20:48,241 --> 02:20:49,825
My Clito.

1528
02:20:50,285 --> 02:20:52,787
In this man, you can always
trust, Alexandre.

1529
02:20:53,371 --> 02:20:54,956
Treat him like you would treat me.

1530
02:20:55,206 --> 02:20:57,166
He will protect you.

1531
02:20:57,833 --> 02:20:59,419
Yes, father.

1532
02:20:59,752 --> 02:21:02,630
My people will be my
Keep it today, Clito.

1533
02:21:02,880 --> 02:21:06,301
Let the Greeks see how
I can walk among the people...

1534
02:21:06,550 --> 02:21:07,927
They call me a tyrant.

1535
02:21:08,636 --> 02:21:11,847
I want the guard to come in
just after me.

1536
02:21:12,098 --> 02:21:15,684
Clito, make sure
there will be wine in abundance.

1537
02:21:15,935 --> 02:21:17,895
I want them to like me.

1538
02:21:25,027 --> 02:21:27,655
Were you not notified? I'll go in
alone.

1539
02:21:27,905 --> 02:21:29,907
Keep guard.

1540
02:21:30,158 --> 02:21:31,533
Let's go.

1541
02:21:34,620 --> 02:21:37,748
- Let's go!
- Dad, it's better that I go with you.

1542
02:21:40,042 --> 02:21:43,129
Do you want the world to realize that you are
my successor?

1543
02:21:43,379 --> 02:21:45,214
Is that what she wants?

1544
02:21:45,840 --> 02:21:48,550
Don't make that hurt face
all the time! Be a man!

1545
02:21:48,801 --> 02:21:52,888
Consider yourself lucky to be
here, after the scandal he caused.

1546
02:21:56,725 --> 02:21:58,894
For Heracles, for Zeus, for everyone
the gods...

1547
02:21:59,145 --> 02:22:01,522
obey me at least once!

1548
02:22:02,898 --> 02:22:05,485
Have courage, father...

1549
02:22:05,734 --> 02:22:08,154
and remain happy in the knowledge that,
every step...

1550
02:22:08,404 --> 02:22:10,572
you can remember your value.

1551
02:22:46,234 --> 02:22:50,279
And now, our beloved
King Philip...

1552
02:22:50,530 --> 02:22:53,491
in whose honor these
marriage games are about to begin!

1553
02:23:11,675 --> 02:23:14,137
Pausanias, I said...

1554
02:23:23,104 --> 02:23:26,023
Who is your new friend?
He has a new friend.

1555
02:23:27,108 --> 02:23:29,193
Please no! No!

1556
02:23:32,738 --> 02:23:34,615
Please no!

1557
02:25:09,085 --> 02:25:11,588
The king is alive!

1558
02:25:11,837 --> 02:25:15,091
Alexander, son of Philip!

1559
02:25:15,341 --> 02:25:17,885
May the gods bless the king!

1560
02:25:18,678 --> 02:25:20,221
Long live Alexandre!

1561
02:25:21,639 --> 02:25:24,016
Alexander is the king!

1562
02:25:26,894 --> 02:25:29,897
You are the king now.

1563
02:25:30,440 --> 02:25:32,942
Long live Alexandre!

1564
02:25:34,902 --> 02:25:36,195
Alexander!

1565
02:25:36,446 --> 02:25:39,156
<b>- King Alexander!
- Alexander is the king!</b>

1566
02:25:39,407 --> 02:25:42,034
<b>Alexander!</b>

1567
02:25:43,827 --> 02:25:46,247
<b>Alexander is the king!</b>

1568
02:25:46,497 --> 02:25:48,499
<b>Alexander is the king!</b>

1569
02:25:50,209 --> 02:25:53,546
May the gods bless Alexander!

1570
02:25:55,339 --> 02:25:58,468
May the gods bless the king!

1571
02:25:58,718 --> 02:26:01,887
<b>- Alexander!
- Alexander!</b>

1572
02:26:10,062 --> 02:26:11,481
Get out.

1573
02:26:12,898 --> 02:26:14,400
Go away.

1574
02:26:19,155 --> 02:26:21,741
How could you behave so
shamelessly in public?

1575
02:26:21,991 --> 02:26:24,494
Because that's what it had to be.

1576
02:26:24,744 --> 02:26:26,496
I didn't want to become king like that.

1577
02:26:26,746 --> 02:26:29,499
- Nobody's blaming you.
- They blame me behind my back...

1578
02:26:29,749 --> 02:26:31,751
- in secret!
- Slander is not power.

1579
02:26:32,084 --> 02:26:37,256
- And shame?
- Who killed my father?

1580
02:26:38,007 --> 02:26:39,592
Tell me.

1581
02:26:39,842 --> 02:26:42,470
Tell me, or whatever
should I try her for his murder?

1582
02:26:42,720 --> 02:26:45,264
- Pausanias
- He was helped!

1583
02:26:45,515 --> 02:26:47,350
Did you help him?

1584
02:26:54,649 --> 02:26:56,734
No. Never.

1585
02:26:57,443 --> 02:27:00,404
Why? Why would I help you?

1586
02:27:01,405 --> 02:27:03,157
So many wanted to do it.

1587
02:27:03,408 --> 02:27:05,951
Greeks, Persians, men, women...

1588
02:27:06,202 --> 02:27:08,913
I would be shocked if there was
some God that he has not desecrated.

1589
02:27:09,163 --> 02:27:10,623
But how ironic that in the end...

1590
02:27:10,873 --> 02:27:14,126
a boy he abused so many times,
have returned the favor.

1591
02:27:14,377 --> 02:27:16,421
You are crazy. Cursed.

1592
02:27:16,671 --> 02:27:19,382
Freed
Furies whose power is unknown!

1593
02:27:19,632 --> 02:27:22,427
Now, who's exaggerating?

1594
02:27:23,386 --> 02:27:25,888
Even if it was what you wanted...

1595
02:27:26,138 --> 02:27:28,182
Lie! It was my father! I loved him!

1596
02:27:28,433 --> 02:27:30,393
He wasn't your father!

1597
02:27:30,643 --> 02:27:32,729
There are no ties
of blood with that man!

1598
02:27:32,978 --> 02:27:35,732
You lie, lie and lie!

1599
02:27:35,981 --> 02:27:38,943
So many lies you spread,
like a sorceress, confusing me!

1600
02:27:39,193 --> 02:27:42,530
Look at yourself. Look at yourself.

1601
02:27:42,781 --> 02:27:46,200
You are everything he wasn't.

1602
02:27:46,451 --> 02:27:49,621
He was brute. You are modest.

1603
02:27:49,870 --> 02:27:53,708
He was a general. You are a king.

1604
02:27:53,958 --> 02:27:55,710
He couldn't control himself...

1605
02:27:56,210 --> 02:27:59,297
and you will rule the world.

1606
02:27:59,547 --> 02:28:03,217
You are so cursed by
all the gods when you talk like that.

1607
02:28:03,468 --> 02:28:05,428
Such blind pride...

1608
02:28:05,678 --> 02:28:07,305
and not a single regret for your husband.

1609
02:28:07,555 --> 02:28:08,889
Regret...

1610
02:28:09,140 --> 02:28:10,642
For him?

1611
02:28:11,601 --> 02:28:14,145
What do you know about Philip?

1612
02:28:15,647 --> 02:28:19,942
No, Alexander. Zeus is your father.

1613
02:28:20,652 --> 02:28:24,405
- React accordingly!
- My first act would be to kill her!

1614
02:28:25,657 --> 02:28:27,992
You killed me in the crib.

1615
02:28:28,242 --> 02:28:30,411
You left me in a bag of hate...

1616
02:28:30,662 --> 02:28:32,747
hate for those who are stronger
than you...

1617
02:28:32,997 --> 02:28:36,793
- hatred for men!
- I taught you with my heart, Alexandre...

1618
02:28:37,042 --> 02:28:39,879
and, by Zeus and Dionysus,
you grew up beautiful!

1619
02:28:40,129 --> 02:28:42,298
Damn your witch's soul!

1620
02:28:42,548 --> 02:28:44,967
Your soul belongs to me, Alexandre.

1621
02:28:46,511 --> 02:28:48,012
No! No!

1622
02:28:48,680 --> 02:28:52,558
Took from me everything I ever loved
and turned me into you!

1623
02:28:53,184 --> 02:28:55,227
Stop acting like a boy!

1624
02:28:55,478 --> 02:28:58,063
You are a king! Act accordingly!

1625
02:28:58,314 --> 02:28:59,774
Parmenion is with us this time.

1626
02:29:00,024 --> 02:29:02,109
Execute Átalo without delay.

1627
02:29:02,360 --> 02:29:04,945
Then confiscate their land and
kick that family out forever.

1628
02:29:05,196 --> 02:29:06,531
Eurydice? Never.

1629
02:29:06,781 --> 02:29:08,115
Laugh, monster.

1630
02:29:08,366 --> 02:29:09,701
Heartbreaker.

1631
02:29:09,950 --> 02:29:12,912
How are you going to live a year like this?

1632
02:29:13,162 --> 02:29:17,625
- Didn't you learn anything from Felipe?
- No. With you, mom.

1633
02:29:20,795 --> 02:29:22,547
The best.

1634
02:29:32,557 --> 02:29:37,144
What did I do so that
Do you hate me so much?

1635
02:29:39,731 --> 02:29:44,402
One day you will understand this...

1636
02:29:44,652 --> 02:29:47,947
but I only have you in my heart.

1637
02:29:50,742 --> 02:29:53,994
I know what you need.

1638
02:29:54,913 --> 02:29:57,039
The time is now.

1639
02:29:57,373 --> 02:29:59,458
The gods are in your favor.

1640
02:29:59,959 --> 02:30:03,170
Great wealth,
power, achievements...

1641
02:30:03,421 --> 02:30:05,172
everything you want!

1642
02:30:05,423 --> 02:30:08,008
The world is yours!

1643
02:30:08,259 --> 02:30:10,094
Take it.

1644
02:30:14,557 --> 02:30:16,434
Take it.

1645
02:30:38,539 --> 02:30:42,001
<i>He never saw his mother again.</i>

1646
02:30:45,630 --> 02:30:48,967
<i>And while I was away,
fighting the tribes of the North...</i>

1647
02:30:49,216 --> 02:30:54,806
<i>Olimpia had his new wife killed
of Philip, Eurydice, and their baby.</i>

1648
02:30:55,347 --> 02:30:56,390
<i>Out of necessity...</i>

1649
02:30:56,641 --> 02:31:00,853
<i>he sent
execute her uncle, Attalus.</i>

1650
02:31:06,943 --> 02:31:11,113
<b>INDIA - 9 YEARS LATER</b>

1651
02:31:15,994 --> 02:31:18,329
<b>You break my heart.
Men!</b>

1652
02:31:18,579 --> 02:31:20,206
Scared!

1653
02:31:21,708 --> 02:31:23,292
Of course you are afraid!

1654
02:31:23,543 --> 02:31:24,878
We all have fears!

1655
02:31:25,127 --> 02:31:28,506
Because no one
never got this far!

1656
02:31:28,798 --> 02:31:33,093
And now we're weeks from the ocean,
our route back home.

1657
02:31:33,553 --> 02:31:35,055
We will build ships...

1658
02:31:35,304 --> 02:31:38,182
and we will sail
Down the Nile to Egypt!

1659
02:31:38,432 --> 02:31:41,519
And from Alexandria we will arrive
the house in weeks!

1660
02:31:42,020 --> 02:31:44,230
There, we will see our
loved ones...

1661
02:31:44,480 --> 02:31:47,984
we will share our
treasures and stories from Asia...

1662
02:31:48,234 --> 02:31:52,864
and we will revel in our glory
immortal until the end of time!

1663
02:31:54,281 --> 02:31:57,577
Follow Alexandre!

1664
02:32:02,206 --> 02:32:03,875
What?

1665
02:32:04,124 --> 02:32:07,628
- Silence?
- We are with you, Alexandre!

1666
02:32:07,962 --> 02:32:09,463
Crater!

1667
02:32:11,591 --> 02:32:12,842
Crater!

1668
02:32:13,093 --> 02:32:14,176
And another.

1669
02:32:26,188 --> 02:32:27,481
My king...

1670
02:32:27,732 --> 02:32:29,483
I'm a fighter.

1671
02:32:29,734 --> 02:32:33,654
I don't like whining. I won't
tolerate them in my units.

1672
02:32:35,115 --> 02:32:37,324
But I lost a lot of men.

1673
02:32:38,409 --> 02:32:41,079
Young people who never
met a woman.

1674
02:32:42,204 --> 02:32:44,373
Some died of illnesses...

1675
02:32:44,958 --> 02:32:49,169
others were slaughtered
in Scythia or on the banks of the Oxo.

1676
02:32:49,420 --> 02:32:51,089
Some had good deaths.

1677
02:32:51,338 --> 02:32:54,300
Others... were unlucky.

1678
02:32:55,175 --> 02:32:56,928
But they died.

1679
02:32:59,263 --> 02:33:02,182
I left with 40 thousand eight years ago...

1680
02:33:02,433 --> 02:33:06,437
and we march after you
for more than 16 thousand kilometers.

1681
02:33:07,480 --> 02:33:11,151
In the rain, under the sun,
we fight for you.

1682
02:33:11,400 --> 02:33:14,403
Some here fought
in 50 battles.

1683
02:33:15,279 --> 02:33:17,657
We killed many barbarians.

1684
02:33:19,325 --> 02:33:24,038
And now when I look around me,
How many of these faces do I see?

1685
02:33:24,538 --> 02:33:28,126
Now you want us to fight harder
crazy tribes of monkeys from the east.

1686
02:33:28,375 --> 02:33:31,838
We hear about thousands
of these monsters, elephants...

1687
02:33:32,088 --> 02:33:34,841
and a hundred other rivers to cross!

1688
02:33:35,800 --> 02:33:39,804
Crater! Good Crater.

1689
02:33:40,721 --> 02:33:45,893
Who better than you to
speak, the noblest of men?

1690
02:33:46,978 --> 02:33:50,815
But you know I don't have a share of
body without scars or fractures...

1691
02:33:51,065 --> 02:33:54,318
of swords, daggers, stones, catapults
and clubs!

1692
02:33:54,568 --> 02:33:56,737
I experienced every difficulty with you!

1693
02:33:56,988 --> 02:34:00,282
Yes, my king, and we love you for it!

1694
02:34:01,325 --> 02:34:04,912
But, by Zeus,
Too many men died!

1695
02:34:05,663 --> 02:34:08,958
You have no children, Alexandre,
and we are...

1696
02:34:09,209 --> 02:34:13,921
humble men we don't want
provoke the gods. We just want...

1697
02:34:14,172 --> 02:34:20,928
see our children, our wives
and our grandchildren one last time...

1698
02:34:21,179 --> 02:34:24,765
before we see our brothers again
in that dark house called Hades!

1699
02:34:28,853 --> 02:34:32,523
Yes. You're right, Craterus.

1700
02:34:32,773 --> 02:34:33,858
I was negligent.

1701
02:34:36,069 --> 02:34:38,946
I should have sent the veterans by now
home, and I'll send it.

1702
02:34:39,197 --> 02:34:41,866
The first to return
will be the Silver Shields.

1703
02:34:42,116 --> 02:34:44,827
Afterwards, all the men who served
for seven years...

1704
02:34:45,078 --> 02:34:46,996
with full pensions
of our treasure!

1705
02:34:48,455 --> 02:34:52,085
And respected, rich, loved...

1706
02:34:52,334 --> 02:34:54,712
they will be looked after by their families...

1707
02:34:54,962 --> 02:34:57,006
like heroes for the rest of your life...

1708
02:34:57,257 --> 02:35:01,385
and they will die peacefully.

1709
02:35:03,012 --> 02:35:04,805
But you dream, Craterus!

1710
02:35:05,681 --> 02:35:09,977
Its simplicity ended when
you impregnated Persian lovers...

1711
02:35:10,228 --> 02:35:14,398
and fattened his treasure
with looted jewels...

1712
02:35:15,233 --> 02:35:20,571
because he fell in love with everyone
the things that destroy men!

1713
02:35:21,572 --> 02:35:23,783
Don't you understand?

1714
02:35:25,076 --> 02:35:28,329
And you, so good
As for me, you know...

1715
02:35:28,579 --> 02:35:32,750
that when the years pass
and the memories fade...

1716
02:35:33,001 --> 02:35:35,753
and all your great
victories fade...

1717
02:35:36,004 --> 02:35:41,592
You will always remember that you
you abandoned your king in Asia!

1718
02:35:41,843 --> 02:35:44,304
'Cause I'm going to move on
with my Asians!

1719
02:35:47,932 --> 02:35:52,187
- To the jackals with you, then!
- We ask for your help, and you deny it!

1720
02:35:52,436 --> 02:35:54,772
Shame!

1721
02:35:55,023 --> 02:35:56,565
We are tired of glories!

1722
02:35:56,816 --> 02:35:59,610
We want to see our
families before they die!

1723
02:36:01,779 --> 02:36:03,698
I have children I haven't even seen yet!

1724
02:36:07,618 --> 02:36:10,538
I want to see my children!

1725
02:36:10,788 --> 02:36:14,625
I support your bastard children!
I was left with nothing for myself!

1726
02:36:14,876 --> 02:36:16,794
And I only asked you for one more month!

1727
02:36:17,045 --> 02:36:18,838
- Shame!
- He is your king!

1728
02:36:20,298 --> 02:36:21,382
What would your father say?

1729
02:36:21,632 --> 02:36:24,719
I took you beyond his dreams!

1730
02:36:24,969 --> 02:36:28,848
You can come back! I stay with the barbarians!

1731
02:36:30,308 --> 02:36:31,726
I'm going to the East!

1732
02:36:31,976 --> 02:36:33,895
You will kill us, hide your crimes!

1733
02:36:34,145 --> 02:36:36,272
- Who said that?
- We will never reach Macedonia!

1734
02:36:36,522 --> 02:36:38,233
Despicable coward, come out!

1735
02:36:38,482 --> 02:36:41,319
- Make your accusations in public!
- So you can kill us?

1736
02:36:41,569 --> 02:36:44,488
- "Son of Zeus"!
- You betray the honor of your real father!

1737
02:36:44,739 --> 02:36:46,782

02:55:26,361 --> 02:55:27,987
Can you get a quote for the wood?
in time.

1864
02:55:28,237 --> 02:55:30,239
Maybe we could sail
with fewer ships...

- Don't worry, Your Majesty.

1874
02:56:05,191 --> 02:56:10,363
A few good nights rest will help.
But no wine or cold chicken.

- I worry about you without me.
- I'm nothing without you.

1893
02:57:56,052 --> 02:57:59,805
Come on, fight, Hephaistion.

1894
02:58:00,056 --> 02:58:02,559
We will die together.

1895
02:58:05,645 --> 02:58:11,275
We will have children with our wives, and they
They will play together, as we did.

1896
02:58:12,068 --> 02:58:15,655
A thousand ships will leave
hence, Hephaestion.

1897
02:58:16,406 --> 02:58:21,118
We will circumnavigate Arabia
and we will enter Egypt through the gulf.

1898
02:58:21,952 --> 02:58:26,416
From there, we will open a channel in the
middle of the desert to the Inner Sea.

1899
02:58:26,666 --> 02:58:31,546
We will advance on Carthage, and that
island, Sicily, will pay us dearly.

1900
02:58:32,672 --> 02:58:36,384
After that, the Roman tribe. They are
good warriors. Let's defeat them.

1901
02:58:37,677 --> 02:58:40,179
We will explore
the forests of the North...

1902
02:58:40,430 --> 02:58:43,307
and we will cross the columns of Heracles
towards the Western Ocean.

1903
02:58:44,141 --> 02:58:48,187
And then, one day, the people
they will mix, they will travel freely...

1904
02:58:48,605 --> 02:58:50,940
Asia and Europe will unite...

1905
02:58:53,109 --> 02:58:56,737
and we will grow old, Hephaestion...

to this new world.

No!

- I can't explain it, Your Majesty!

Get out of here! Harpies!
Get out! Get out!

1916

Are you drunk again?

1917
03:00:03,137 --> 03:00:04,388
- Skirt.
- He died.

1918
03:00:04,639 --> 03:00:07,433
- Who?
- Many hated him...

1919
03:00:07,684 --> 03:00:10,311
but I think more
no one would have dared!

1920
03:00:12,021 --> 03:00:14,106
Did Hephaestion die?

1921

Monster.

1923
03:00:24,743 --> 03:00:27,787
- Are you crazy?
- You took from me everything I ever loved!

1924
03:00:28,037 --> 03:00:31,957
May the Furies torture yours
miserable heart forever! Obey!

1925
03:00:33,042 --> 03:00:37,714
No, Alexander! I'm waiting for
your son! Alexander!

1926

One last toast!

Before dawn.

1935

That's it, let's go. Drink it all.

What is being happy?

1969
03:06:04,331 --> 03:06:08,044
When your mind and body
they are pushed to the limit...

1970
03:06:08,294 --> 03:06:11,131
and you don't have any thoughts
beyond the next one.

Without your orders, there will be war.

He said "the best".

- No. He said "Craterus."
- Crater?

of the stories completely.

2048
03:13:01,916 --> 03:13:04,043
A wise step, perhaps.

2049
03:13:05,378 --> 03:13:08,506
But I will say that your love and devotion
by Alexander...

2050
03:13:08,756 --> 03:13:13,553
were unquestionable
and extraordinary.

2051
03:13:21,227 --> 03:13:25,356
Now I'm the guardian of his body...

2052
03:13:25,606 --> 03:13:29,444
embalmed here, in the Egyptian way.

2053
03:13:29,693 --> 03:13:34,907
I followed him like Pharaoh
and he has been ruling for 40 years.

2054
03:13:37,701 --> 03:13:39,662
I have two children...

2055
03:13:39,912 --> 03:13:42,957
everyone is jealous
of the power of the other.

2056
03:13:45,376 --> 03:13:49,547
But they will grow up to be good parents
and husbands...

2057
03:13:49,797 --> 03:13:51,799
and I trust...

2058
03:13:52,049 --> 03:13:53,759
who will be fair in their dealings.

2059
03:13:55,470 --> 03:13:58,264
But they never saw...

2060
03:13:58,515 --> 03:14:01,058
the great cavalry attack
in Gaugamela...

2061
03:14:01,392 --> 03:14:04,479
or the mountains of Hindu Kush...

2062
03:14:05,188 --> 03:14:10,568
when we take an army
of 100 thousand men to India.

2063
03:14:17,783 --> 03:14:21,162
He was a God, Cadmus...

2064
03:14:21,412 --> 03:14:24,290
or the closest thing
that's what I've seen.

2065
03:14:24,541 --> 03:14:28,252
"Tyrant!" they shouted
so easily. I laugh.

2066
03:14:28,503 --> 03:14:31,047
No tyrant has ever reciprocated so much.

2067
03:14:31,297 --> 03:14:33,757
But what do these students
Do you know about the world?

2068
03:14:34,634 --> 03:14:37,011
Only the strong rule...

2069
03:14:37,261 --> 03:14:43,684
but Alexander was more. He was Prometheus,
the friend of men. He changed the world.

2070
03:14:44,143 --> 03:14:47,271
Before him, there were tribes...

2071
03:14:47,522 --> 03:14:51,775
and, after him,
everything became possible.

2072
03:14:52,026 --> 03:14:56,780
The idea arose that the whole world
could be governed by a single king.

2073
03:14:57,031 --> 03:14:59,450
It would be better for everyone.

2074
03:15:01,327 --> 03:15:04,914
Eighteen great Alexandrias
he built around the world.

2075
03:15:05,164 --> 03:15:10,711
It was an empire, not one of land
and of gold, but of the mind.

2076
03:15:12,046 --> 03:15:15,216
A Hellenic civilization...

2077
03:15:15,466 --> 03:15:19,512
open to everyone.

2078
03:15:23,266 --> 03:15:26,936
But the truth is never simple...

2079
03:15:27,687 --> 03:15:29,855
however, it is.

2080
03:15:30,314 --> 03:15:33,192
The truth is that we killed him.

2081
03:15:37,113 --> 03:15:40,366
With our silence, we consent.

2082
03:15:40,824 --> 03:15:42,743
Because...

2083
03:15:42,993 --> 03:15:45,496
why not
we could continue.

2084
03:15:45,746 --> 03:15:51,001
What could we expect, for Ares,
otherwise we will be discarded like Clito?

2085
03:15:51,252 --> 03:15:56,382
After years, give away our wealth
to despicable Asian parasites?

2086
03:15:56,633 --> 03:16:00,177
Mixture of races, harmony? Now!

2087
03:16:00,761 --> 03:16:03,514
He talked about it, yes...

2088
03:16:03,764 --> 03:16:09,520
But it wasn't all about Alexandre
Was it just another people who bowed to him?

2089
03:16:10,521 --> 03:16:13,441
I never believed in his dream.

2090
03:16:13,691 --> 03:16:15,568
None of us believed it.

2091
03:16:17,487 --> 03:16:19,739
This is the truth about your life.

2092
03:16:19,989 --> 03:16:22,533
Dreamers exhaust us.

2093
03:16:23,242 --> 03:16:27,413
They need to die, before we
kill with your damn dreams.

2094
03:16:28,789 --> 03:16:31,626
Throw it all away, Cadmus!

2095
03:16:31,875 --> 03:16:34,253
These are the delusions of an old fool.

2096
03:16:36,088 --> 03:16:41,344
You will write: "He died
of fever and weakness."

2097
03:16:42,303 --> 03:16:44,138
Yes, great Pharaoh.

2098
03:16:44,388 --> 03:16:48,058
Oh, he could have stayed at home in Macedonia,
married, raised a family.

2099
03:16:49,435 --> 03:16:52,522
He would have died a notorious man.

2100
03:16:54,898 --> 03:16:57,652
But that wasn't Alexander.

2101
03:16:58,027 --> 03:17:03,908
All his life he fought
to free yourself from fear...

2102
03:17:04,158 --> 03:17:10,248
and therefore only
That's why he became free...

2103
03:17:11,624 --> 03:17:15,587
the freest man I have ever met.

2104
03:17:17,255 --> 03:17:22,260
His tragedy was
his growing loneliness...

2105
03:17:22,510 --> 03:17:26,180
and your impatience
with whom he could not understand.

2106
03:17:26,556 --> 03:17:29,308
And, if your desire...

2107
03:17:29,559 --> 03:17:34,272
to reconcile Greeks and barbarians
ended in failure...

2108
03:17:36,816 --> 03:17:39,944
What a failure!

2109
03:17:40,194 --> 03:17:46,701
His failure imposed itself,
about the success of others.

2110
03:17:51,080 --> 03:17:52,791
<b>I lived...</b>

2111
03:17:53,040 --> 03:17:55,376
<b>one life
long, Cadmus...</b>

2112
03:17:55,627 --> 03:17:57,878
<b>but the glory and memory of men...</b>

2113
03:17:58,129 --> 03:18:03,008

2114
03:18:03,468 --> 03:18:08,723
<b>and the greatest of them is man
which they now call...</b>

2115
03:18:10,057 --> 03:18:13,812
<b>by Megas Alexandros...</b>

2116
03:18:15,396 --> 03:18:18,483
<b>the greatest Alexander of all.</b>

2117
03:18:30,077 --> 03:18:33,832
<b>Over time, the great library in Alexandria
was destroyed by a series of fires.</b>

2118
03:18:34,081 --> 03:18:35,792
<b>Ptolemy's memoirs
about Alexander...</b>

2119
03:18:36,041 --> 03:18:40,129
<b>along with many other memories
of the ancient world, disappeared.</b>

2120
03:18:52,353 --> 03:18:54,053
<b>DRIVEN BY</b>

2121
03:20:59,018 --> 03:21:03,022
<b>DEDICATED TO JACQUELINE AND MARGRIT</b>
