The Procurator
Virginia is Galileo’s young, naïve daughter. Despite the presence of a Pope, multiple cardinals, and other religious figures, she is the most devoted follower of Catholicism in Life of Galileo and can often be seen praying. She loves her father, but sees his work in science as misguided. When the Inquisition questions her about him, she has no sense of what danger she might be putting Galileo in.
