5. Visitors looking at the figure
6. SOUNDBITE (Spanish) Asunción Tanarrós, cathedral visitor:
"It impresses me so much, yes indeed, very impressed. I feel like...sorrow, anguish for all he had went through, he is very, very damaged, deteriorated, especially in the head with the thorns. I did not know that thorns have been nailed so much in him, yes, makes me (feel) anguish."
7. People looking closely at figure of Jesus on display
8. SOUNDBITE (Spanish) Ismenia Arteaga, cathedral visitor:
"The truth is that I am quite shocked by all the detail and the care that they have taken. They leave to (our) free will what to think of the image, the emotion which each person gives it and the respect for a piece of art that you feel is real."
9. Close view of figure
10. SOUNDBITE (Spanish) Carlos Gomez, cathedral visitor:
"(I am) Impressed, first by the exhibition itself and secondly by the many questions that the whole exhibition creates because evidently the scientific studies are real but still it creates a lot of questions. How is possible that something could have left an impression on a canvas, from a reflection after two centuries, (corrects himself) I mean 2,000 years."
11. Various of visitors
12. SOUNDBITE (Spanish) Carmen García, cathedral visitor:
"I'm living it, I'm looking at it and I think I'm seeing it and I'm very excited. I've even seen the hair on its parts (genitals) and everything, it's incredible the emotion I've felt, I don't know, I just didn't expect it."
13. Set up of Lia Limcaoco looking at the figure
14. SOUNDBITE (English) Lia Limcaoco, cathedral visitor:
"The suffering of Christ from a scientific point of view and actually seeing the body made me cringe and want to cry, and has deepened my faith because it makes you realize all the suffering that the Lord has gone through for us."
15.Top shot of exhibition
16. Various of copy of Turin Shroud
17. Various set up shots of curator Alvaro Blanco looking at the figure
18. SOUNDBITE (Spanish) Alvaro Blanco, curator, "The Mystery Man":
"I think the debate of this piece, this sculpture, is what it arouses in us, the empathy of that skin with us. For the first time you see a figure and although art has represented Jesus in certain moments, here what is being represented is his skin, to put skin on the Holy Shroud, to humanize Jesus Christ."
19. Various of the sculpture of Jesus
20. Various set up shots of Cathedral Dean Antonio Matilla
21. Dean looking at crucifix on the wall
22. SOUNDBITE (Spanish) Antonio Matilla, Dean of the Cathedral of Salamanca:
"The reaction of the people is of two types; one is of admiration of not believing it, of turning around and checking and looking again and the other one is like of rejection and, well, if they are such divergent reactions it means that the exhibition has something important, and what it has in my opinion, is a new and important approach to the incarnation of Jesus."
23. Close of scars on the chest of the figure
24. Close of crucifixion scars
25. Mid of figure of Christ +CONTAINS NUDITY+
