In Another young 'man with fiery black eyes that glow with fervor, talks about the tragic end of the Jesuits. H‘ voice almost cracks as points to the grave of Jean de Brebeuf who was killed in an Iroquois raid. Maybe this young man in the black Jesuit robe goes out to discos after work but on the job he lives the life of a priest in the 17th century.
