THE ANCESTRAL LAND
- Did something happen?
- No, everything is fine.
Where is Timka?
He stayed at home.
We need to talk alone, Alesha.
All right.
I scared you so much.
I should have told everything
from the beginning,
but I thought
that I would be able to forget it.
That I won't bother you
with my front memories.
I was raped by the Germans, Alesha.
There were ten of them.
Oh, God, Lilya.
I got it.
No need to talk about it anymore.
They cruelly beat me up.
That's why I always feel physical pain.
I feel pains in my abdomen,
lower back, left breast.
Sometimes, they come to me in my sleep,
and then, my soul hurts terribly.
I relive that nightmare again.
God, my girl. Give me your hand.
Everything will be fine. We'll manage.
Tomorrow, we'll examine you
at the hospital. We'll check everything.
We'll treat everything.
We'll be happy, Lilenka.
We have Timka. We'll have other children.
Alesha, I can't have children now.
Holy Trinity, take mercy on us.
Lord, forgive us our sins.
Lord, forgive us our illegal actions.
Visit us and cure our diseases
to glorify Your name.
Oh, God. Stepa?
Father Nicolay? What is it?
Read a prayer with me, Stepa.
I beg you. Read and remember.
It's short.
Later, when I'm gone, you'll read it.
OK.
My Lord, Jesus Christ, take mercy on me,
the sinner. Repeat, please.
My Lord, Jesus Christ, take mercy on me,
the sinner. Is that all?
- It is.
- It's short.
What prayer is it?
It's Jesus's prayer.
You shall live, Stepan.
Your son is waiting for you.
Your wife is waiting for you.
I have neither a son nor a wife.
Sleep.
Stepa!
Barrack no. 8
Come out, faster, faster!
Come out, all together.
Faster!
Run!
Go to work!
M-174!
Did you die, or what?
Comrade boss,
you shall send him to the doctor.
After the monk was murdered at night,
this wolf made such a performance!
It looks like he went out of his mind.
Stand up! Stand up, you!
Send him to the doctor for examination.
Shall I carry you in my arms, or what?
Come on!
Move it!
- Stop!
- Stop, little bastard!
- Stop!
- Stop!
I told you to stop!
- Stop, little bastard!
- Stop!
Stop, bastard!
- Stop!
- Stop!
- Stop!
- I told you to stop!
Get off, guys! Stop, damn you!
Egor, why aren't you at the nursery?
- Is he yours?
- He is. What did he do?
He is a thief! He stole pies from me!
Give them back,
or I'll arrest you and send you to prison!
- Give her the pies, I tell you.
- Give them back!
Here you go. Sorry. Look at me!
How could you, Egor?
I put them in a bag
to hand them over to the buyer,
and he snatched them away from me!
Be more attentive to him!
What a little bastard!
I beg your pardon. Stop!
I'm very sorry.
I'll come back in a minute.
I'll sort it out and come.
Where are you going?
Be quiet, they'll sort it out.
They will. Can't you see it?
Varvara, why are you holding
him like a naughty puppy?
- Ira, later.
- What did he do?
Kneel in a corner.
Don't you dare move until I come back!
- K-701.
- Here.
- R-680.
- Here.
- B-643.
- Here.
Turn left. March forward.
Barrack no.9
Comrade Colonel, may I come in?
You're already here.
Why are you smoking? Is it a fire?
It actually is, Comrade Colonel.
It's a fire.
The 9th barrack is burning.
Damn it! The barrack is burning!
I wish it burnt to ashes!
Was there anybody in the barrack?
Some people. Five criminal convicts.
Monya Bespredelniy and his guys.
It looks like somebody locked them in.
People, people they were shit,
not people.
Let they all burn with grey flames.
- Blue flames.
- What?
Only smoke may be grey, Comrade Colonel.
Gaganov, don't put me straight,
I'm not crooked.
Yes, sir, Comrade Colonel.
They burnt alive. They inhaled
too much smoke, Comrade Colonel.
Why did you place them here,
like sausages on a counter?
Take them away.
Let them have rest in the morgue now.
Yes, sir, Comrade Colonel.
Comrade Colonel, I got a telegram today.
On the 24th, a commission arrives.
It'll check the second building site.
You should have started
from this piece of news.
And you started with the fire. All right.
Move all the inmates
from the 9th barrack to the 5th
and send a brigade
to the building site at once.
People from the 9th barrack
won't fit into the 5th.
Fit them. They may lie side by side.
The more the funnier.
The merrier.
Don't put me straight, I'm not crooked.
Yes, sir.
One lung is damaged.
The size and shape
are considerably altered.
Does she complain of the pains?
She rarely complains of anything.
This organ is damaged,
Alexei Makarovitch, it shall be removed.
Alla Borisovna, I got you.
When do you plan to operate on her?
In the nearest future.
We'll start preparing her tomorrow.
Are you going to her?
She refused to have injections today.
Alexei Makarovitch,
everybody is ready at the surgery,
we're only waiting for you.
I got you. I'll be there in three minutes.
Alexei Makarovitch,
have you finished the surgery?
The thing is,
we were waiting for you to tell you that
Lilya Mikhaylovna left the hospital
two hours ago.
What do you mean - she left?
She just did.
She packed her things and left.
Alexei Makarovitch, are you coming?
He is so exact!
Just three minutes have passed!
Sit down.
Eat.
Mum, what is it?
Why are you looking at me? Come on, eat.
You must eat all of them,
until the very last pie.
Take the second one.
You won't stand up from the table
until you eat all of them.
But mum, we don't have the money.
There was money, I saved some.
You'll now finish the pies and then
we'll go hungry for two months.
Mum, did you waste all the money for pies?
If your dad was with us,
he'd beat you up with a belt so hard
that you'd remember for the rest
of your life how it feels to steal!
But he us not here!
My hair grew, but he is still not here!
I'm going to the institute,
and you do what I told you to.
Don't stand up from this chair
until you finish them off.
By the time of the revolution,
the old regime exhausted itself
and was dying off.
We can't even say that the February
revolution overthrew monarchy in Russia.
The monarchy fell on its own.
Nobody was protecting it.
Ulyana Pavlovna, we beg your pardon
but we urgently need Varavara Morozova.
Auntie Varya, mum sent me to you.
- Your Egorka is unwell!
- You may go, Morozova.
I'm sorry. Thank you. Let's go.
I beg your pardon.
Let's continue our lecture.
- Varya, come here.
- Ira, what is wrong with him?
- He has been sick for four hours!
- Oh, God!
What did you make him eat so much for?
He must have gastric indigestion.
Varvara, you flushed all your money
down the toilet.
Egorushka! I'm sorry.
Mum, I ate everything. As you said.
I'll never steal again.
Sorry. Forgive me.
Why did you leave the hospital?
I can't stay there.
I spent three months in the hospital,
and since then,
hospital walls are pressing on me
I'm sorry. I can't stay there.
You shall have a surgery.
Is it so serious?
No, it's nothing serious.
We may wait, then.
I didn't leave the hospital in vain.
I took Timka to the circus today.
He was so happy that I got
infected with his happiness.
I recalled my childhood.
Dad took me to Petersburg
when I was eight.
I had a huge lolly,
and there were clowns there.
I put my lolly on my dress,
and it got stuck.
And it was Madame Yevlatskaya
who made that dress for me
Lilya
The surgery is absolutely necessary.
Dr. Morozov,
you know that I can see you through.
I'm in a terrible shape. Why lie to me?
Lilya?
Were you drinking again?
You promised!
It's easier for me this way, Alesha.
Sorry.
Don't talk in the column.
Don't stretch out.
Widen your step.
No talking in the column!
I beg your pardon.
Do you have a piece of paper?
I want to write a letter
to my wife and I have no paper.
I'm your new neighbour. We will have
to spend nights side-by-side now.
We shall get acquainted.
Excuse me what is your name?
Leave him alone, fool.
He has recently eaten soup
together with this tongue.
He went numb.
No, he gave a vow of silence.
Don't worry.
If you lost speech due to a
nervous breakdown, it'll come back.
My name is Lyova. Lev Levitskiy.
I am a scientist.
I was a scientist.
My wife has a weak heart.
I'm afraid that something
may happen to her.
I shall write, but I don't have any paper.
He was robbing a passer-by.
He had a knife in his boot.
And then the police came
and started to shout:
"Show your hands and your weapons!"
That was how Mishanya was caught.
He deserved it! He didn't know his place.
What shall I tattoo?
What did the poet say about the roads?
"I walked so many roads,
I made so many mistakes".
Tattoo that.
Blessed are the crying
for they will be consoled.
Blessed are the meek
for they will inherit the world.
Blessed are those who look for truth
for they'll be satisfied.
Blessed are merciful
for they will be saved
It's ten minutes until
the start of the séance,
and the queue is at least
half an hour long!
My neighbour liked cinema very much.
She watched this movie yesterday
and she is simply impressed. She says
that Kryuchkov is simply brilliant.
Plus, every single song is a hit.
Do you like actor Nicolay Kryuchkov?
I like it when people
avoid idle talks with me.
Is it a violin? If you're a violinist,
it means you have kind soul.
- What is your name?
- Leonid.
There is one good man, a front hero,
who has never been to the movies.
This good man won't get a ticket
if you don't help him, Leonid.
Please buy two tickets to the movie!
Sure. Give me the money.
Let's go, Comrade Senior Lieutenant.
Show me your machines.
Well, where are your air giants?
Here they are.
- What do you mean?
- I'm Senior Lieutenant Svetlova.
Senior Lieutenant Svetlova.
What camouflage!
Yes, she put the art
of the military camouflage very high.
Please tell me
Are you really pilots
or is it camouflage as well?
No, sir.
I understand your concern, Comrade Major.
They are girls, of course.
But they don't paint their lips.
- Not at all?
- Not at all.
They even decided not to have
any affairs until the end of the war.
- Did something happen?
- No.
You're as if a stranger tonight.
You're with me but at the same time
you're as if somewhere else.
I'll live with you now.
In the dormitory. I left him. For good.
You ended it,
and now you have doubts, don't you?
Alyona, you wanted it yourself.
I told you to think well first.
There is the end and here is the start.
Don't talk nonsense.
I didn't change my mind.
Let's go drink something and dance.
Attention, convicts!
The column is to keep strict order.
Don't stretch out. Don't step
on the feet of a convict ahead of you!
It's prohibited to talk in a column!
You may only look forward
and not turn back!
Keep hands behind your back.
A step to the right or to the left
is considered to be an escape.
The guards will shoot without warning.
Brigades 22, 34 and 46!
You'll work at the building
of the second building object today.
I'll be present there too.
For your good work,
I promise each one of you a money bonus.
You are familiar with the principle
of brigade work in our camp.
Let me remind you about it - if at least
one person out of the brigade idles,
the entire brigade
will be left without the wages.
For the smallest violation of the
discipline you'll get 20 days of lock-up
without walks. Consider yourself lucky
to work under my supervision today.
I wish all of you a lucky working day,
strength of spirit and clean conscience!
Turn left!
March forward!
You're as if dead. Widen your step!
Don't lag behind. Come on!
It's not a promenade!
My Lord, Jesus Christ,
take mercy on me, the sinner.
My Lord, Jesus Christ,
take mercy on me, the sinner.
My Lord, Jesus Christ,
take mercy on me, the sinner.
You shall be more careful. If somebody
hears you, you'll be in trouble.
My Lord, Jesus Christ,
take mercy on me, the sinner.
My Lord, Jesus Christ,
take mercy on me, the sinner.
My Lord, Jesus Christ,
take mercy on me, the sinner
- Brigadier?
- What?
The student is unwell.
What has happened again?
I can't do it anymore. I'm dying!
Student, stop this shit.
You were dying yesterday too.
You did, didn't you?
Did I send you to the medical unit? I did.
What did they say?
That you're healthy! So work, work!
Stop, bastard. I can't!
I have no strength left.
Shut your mouth
before the bosses heard you.
It's all your fault, bastard!
Die! You'll all die!
I wish we killed you all! Die!
Die, all of you,
with your bloody Soviet power!
- The poor boy lost his mind.
- The nerves failed him.
Red devils! I won't!
Burn in fire, everybody!
You and your Stalin!
Take the body away immediately.
Why are you standing?
Take the student and take him away.
And you, take the log.
Move it. Come on, faster, faster!
The Pacific and the Atlantic oceans
have similar geographic position.
They stretch from the North
Arctic circle up to Antarctica.
The Indian ocean, however,
is almost entirely situated
in the Southern hemisphere.
The Arctic ocean is situated
at the North Pole, to be exact, around it.
It stretches along the entire
Northern Arctic Circle.
It's all covered with sea ice, that's
why it's isolated from the other oceans.
Fyodor Fomitch, do white bears live there?
Lyalina, polar bears, sea lions,
walruses and many other northern animals
live there; however,
it's not the topic of geography.
Please don't interrupt me again, Lyalina.
I'm very sorry. I won't do it again.
So
Fyodor Fomitch,
what are you doing this Saturday evening?
On Saturday evening, Lyalina,
I'll preparing for our next lecture.
Let's continue our lecture.
You, as future teachers
Fyodor Fomitch!
Maybe you shall forget about the lectures?
Let's go to dances with us on Saturday!
No, Fyodor Fomitch!
Let's better go with us!
We're going to the movies!
Shut up!
The lecture is over for today.
I'll ask each of you tomorrow.
Those who won't answer will be expelled.
The task is clear. Execute. Now!
What a psycho!
Who will allow him to expel us?
He is not a director.
He seems to be concussed.
He is concussed indeed.
He spent all the war
at the front and reached Berlin.
How do you know? Maybe you write
lectures with him in the evenings?
And answer lessons to him at nights?
When he returned from the war,
he stayed in my brother's hospital.
He still goes there for treatments.
He had three serious wounds.
Varya, we behaved in a silly way.
But we didn't know.
You'll know now.
It's all right, Nina.
What may we do when there
are 20 girls for one man now?
Will you go with us
to the dances on Saturday?
I can't. Egor fell sick.
He is staying at home.
Recover!
- Thanks. See you tomorrow.
- Bye!
- Good afternoon.
- Good afternoon.
- Good afternoon.
- Good afternoon.
- Hello.
- Show me how you're doing.
Here we go.
The works are going on
Lift!
Listen, Stepan.
Some bosses must have arrived.
That gentleman with a stick
is looking at you all the time.
He was staring at you
when we were going that way.
What about the terms?
The building will be
completely finished by October.
It means that the object
will be ready ahead of the schedule.
Great.
Mikhail Andreyevitch,
let's go to the camp now.
We'll eat. The table is laid.
Yes, yes. We'll go now. Wait. Stepan!
M-174, come here.
Stepa!
Damn it!
This is simply impossible.
Comrade Captain
Why are you here?
There was a battle.
All our people died.
I was taken prisoner.
Damn it, Stepa. Damn it!
Smoke.
I know about that battle, Stepan.
I thought that everybody was killed.
Why didn't you look for me?
I named your surname.
At the interrogation.
However, I don't remember either
the regiment or the unit after Gestapo.
I see.
I won't promise anything
but I'll do everything I can.
Why are you here? You're a military man.
No, Stepa. My wars are over.
I'm in reserve now.
My legs are made out of dead material.
Army people can't have two prosthetics.
I won't do the ironing.
I'll iron when we arrive.
Are you hungry?
Will you eat before we go?
I made soup yesterday.
Do you want some?
No, I'm not hungry.
OK.
I'll leave it for the neighbours, then.
Their men are hungry all the time.
I need to take some clothes from there.
I don't want to leave them.
However, if you're against it,
I won't go there. I'll do as you say.
You may go.
If you think you shall go - go.
The new residents are waiting
for the room in the kitchen.
Will you go with me?
No, Alyona. Go on your own.
- Varka, hi.
- Hi.
How are your studies doing?
- Hello.
- Hello.
I like the institute so much!
I learn something new every day.
We study grammar, math, history,
geography, music and singing.
We also make figurines from clay,
draw and do crafts
so that we could teach all that
to the kids later.
And my Georgiy will enter
the Polytechnic Institute next year.
Oh, wow!
He is repairing the third bike for Sanka.
He is a future engineer!
When he repairs it,
my Sanka will let your Egor ride it.
Thanks.
How is he? Does he still have fever?
I don't know. I'll now come
and measure his temperature.
All right, repair the bike! I'll go.
Hello, Tatyana Nicolayevna.
Varenka? Varya!
Your Egor is already fine.
- He is, isn't he?
- He is.
Yakov Dmitriyevitch has been
playing with him since lunchtime.
Yakov Dmitriyevitch?
Yes. That was how he introduced himself.
He brought something to your son.
I heard laugh from Egorka's room.
You have a very, very nice admirer, Varya.
I would have no doubts if I were you.
Varya, a boy needs a father.
I'll go, Tatyana Nicolayevna.
- Hello.
- Hello.
- Hello.
- Hello.
- Hello, little one.
- Hello.
You blot it a bit,
and there is left water.
Take this colour.
Then you may mix it with another one.
No, we haven't washed the brush well yet.
Mummy! Dubasov is drawing
Chernomor's army for me!
Hello, Varya.
What are you doing it for?
But Varya we
- Go away.
- Mum!
- Egor!
- OK.
No, Dubasov! I want to draw!
- Egor!
- It's all right.
Stop! Listen to me, Egor!
Egor, listen to me, listen to me!
Egor, listen to me!
You have your own dad, do you hear?
You have him!
We'll wait for him!
I promise, he'll come for sure.
For sure!
For sure!
