She wasn't never raped, that was certain.

There was starvation, dehydration.
Confined an-hypothermia.
We think this chair was used here to tie her so she can relief herself easily.
From the scars on her wrist we believe she was tied here for days at that time.

She didn't do anything.
She was the one who hurt me.
A lot!
And you want her to live?
So you never believe me.
Enough.
So you believe I'm insane too. just like the doctors.
Did they ever do anything for me. besides say I was crazy?
You're like them.

They're all dead.
They won't hurt you anymore.

Forgive me.
I'm so sorry.
Stop it!
Who's the girl on the couch?
Who is she?
Lucie.
Lucie. who?
Lucie jurin.
And you?
You are?
Anna assaoui.
We've been trying to calling to the phone here for hours.
The phone was off the hook.
This shouldn't never happened.
Can you tell me what went on here?
What are you doing here?
Lucie jurin actually escaped from us 15 years ago.
Correct?
Right.
Back then, we were not quite assure. We were disorganized.
Gabrielle never should have let her escape.
After 15 years, the child found her.
I was impressed by her junasity as for the rest.
Lucie is just a victim.
Like all of the others.
It is so easy to create a victim. young lady, so easy.
You lock someone in a room with no light.
Soon they begin to suffer.
Then you feed that suffering.
Slowly methodically.
Systematically, coldly.
For a long time.
You then witness your subject, going through several mental states.
The mental trauma starts to break them.
And that small, easily opened crack.
Makes them see things, that don't exist in our world.
Your friend Lucie. What was her vision? Hmm
Did she see any thing?
Not even one monster?
Did she see things that wanted to hurt her?
Hmm?
A dead girl.
I knew it.
A dead girl.
The one that you found, sarah dutreuil, saws up the insects.
Scrawling all over her skin.
She'd rather cut off her own arm than living with that fear.
People ignored the existence of suffering.
That's how our world sees it.
Yet everyone's a victim.
Martyrs are very rare.
A true martyr is a special person.
They are exceptional beings.
They been sent paralyzing pain young lady. They can survive total deprivation.
They carry all the sins of the world.
It's their sacrifice.
They transcend themselves completely.
Do you understand?
They are transfigured.
Long shang province in 1912.
She didn't believe in god.
She stole a hen, But it cost her dearly.
In the photograph you can see, She's still very alive.
Look at her eyes.
Jouans-lussac, 1945, This woman was a grocer.
She slept with a Nazi. Her fellow frenchman..
..didn't care for that, so she had to pay.
Look at her eyes.
She was still alive.
1960, A hospital in birmingham.
Just an ordinary young housewife. An atheist, riddle with terminal cancer.
Morphine had lost his effect for her.
Her eyes tell the story.
Beaten with a pipe by her jealous husband. After his release from prison.
Crushed in a car wreck, from which she couldn't be pulled out.
A leukemia victim in her final moments of life.
Suffering excruciating pain from a rare disease.
17 hours of mind numbing agony.
Starving to death after 2 years.
You know everyone of them. was the same.
Each one of them was still alive. When they were photographed.
No one can try to tell me that the concept of martyrdom
was strictly an invention of the religious.
We tried everything, even with children.
And we proven that its women.
That are much more responsive to transfiguration.
Yes...young women.
That's how it is.
Aah!
Aaahhh!
Aaaaahhhhh!
Aaahhh!
Aaaaahhhhh!
Aah!
Anna?
Are you there?
Anna? I'm here.
Yes, Lucie?
Why aren't you never scared?
I am scared sometimes.
Not like I'm.
I didn't go through what you did.
How do you stop being scared?
Just let go.
You think so?
Just let go.
And if i can't, will you be there?
Yes.
I miss you.
You're not scared now.
Not scared now.
You'll be all right.
Your suffering is almost over.
There's only one more stage.
The last one.
You'll be all right.
You won't have to protect yourself ever again.
It's okay.
- Is she still holding up? - That's amazing.
Michel!
What's going on?
Michel..Come quickly.
Just now, when I went down to feed her.
- Are you certain? - Mam, I couldn't been more certain.
I have never seen such an expression.
She's like god, she's completely like god. Her face is like something.
Mam, it's like.
Her eyes, I swear, she no longer sees anything around her.
But is she still...
Yes! She's alive, Mam, certain she is.
Have you seen it then?
The other world?
Yesterday afternoon.
In this very house.
At around 12:15.
Anna assaoui became a martyred.
Let us take a moment to pay our respect.
Anna assaoui is a rare individual.
In our 17 years of research.
Anna is only the fourth person to have attained that stage.
And the first. Yes, my friends.
The first one to have reported what she has seen then.
Between 12:15 and 2:30 p.m.
Miss Anna assaoui saw beyond death into the other world.
You heard me correctly. Her state of ecstasy..
..lasted two hours and 15 minutes.
This was not a near-death experience.
There is no doubt that our martyrdom was authentic.
At 2:30 p.m...She came out of this state.
At 3:05.
On a spoke.
At this moment.
She is still alive.
Although no longer communicating.
Mademoiselle heard her full testimony.
And my friends, this testimony.
will be shared with you in just a few moments.
Mademoiselle.
They're waiting.
Very well Etienne.
She really told you?
Of course.
Was it clear?
Like crystal.
And precise?
I can see no other Interpretation, Etienne.
I see, Mademoiselle.
Etienne?
Mademoiselle?
Have you ever tried to imagine the other world?
Everything all right?
- Well have you? - I'm afraid not.
Keep doubting Etienne.
