All language subtitles for Dreams from Strangers (Non accettare i sogni dagli sconosciuti) 2015_track3_[eng]

Don't accept dreams from strangers.

Don't accept dreams from strangers.

According to the definition, free diving
is a sport in which a man plunges

into deep seas holding his breath

Without the support
of any breathing apparatus.

It is an extreme sport,
which requires good physical preparation

but most of all,
a strong mentalpredisposition.

In underwater diving,
you swim down several meters

and ifyour mind has not reached
a state of quiet,

then unpleasant trouble can happen.

You can be physically strong
and still you might not be able

to control and convey your power.

You need a high level of balance
which is not merely a physical value.

Once you’ve achieved self-control,
you are vigilant and conscious

but also calm and relaxed
at the same time.

When you swim down into the deep,

you feel as if the world
closes up above you

and another brand new one
opens all of a sudden.

lam a drop in the sea,

I am part of it.

lam water too.

A young girl is persecuted by thugs,
and writes to Maciste praying for help.

They will meet at Ponte Vecchio.

I hope you received my texts.
Keep me posted. I miss you.

[come from a small town
in the North of Italy,

a town of few people and few ambitions.

People of my own age, here,
either marry or move abroad

Where they can have more chances
for their future.

But me, Iremained.

lam linked to my earth and my sea.

My only goal is to stay submerged
in water as long as possible.

Only those Who have tried it
can understand What I am saying.

So many hours every day
and so many days every week,

consecrated to training.

Through physical effort,
we can change and transform ourselves.

To me, water is a world, my world.

In all these years,
[have had the good fortune to travel.

Each country has its own history,
traditions and beliefs.

Traveling builds you up
and makes you stronger.

It destroys the walls inside your mind

and it is only in that moment
that you realize

you are truly beginning your journey.

After Madrid, Barcelona and Berlin,
the long-awaited moment had come:

the most important swimming competition
in Russia.

After a short stop in Munich,

I arrived in St. Petersburg
as part of the Italian delegation.

I had never been there before.

What it makes it interesting
to go compete abroad

is that you never know
in which city you may end up

and you are often hit by the beauty
and the history of those places.

St. Petersburg does hit you

with its impressive stories
and its breathtaking architecture.

Unfortunately the results
were not What I hoped for.

All those months and years of hard work
for a few minutes of competition.

There you put everything on the line.

0n the other hand, you can’t always excel
and perfection can also get boring.

But this is the fun part.

If a dream has so many obstacles,
it means that it is the right one.

-May I?
-Sure!

-I am Massimo.
-I know.

I am the interpreter.

I did the simultaneous interpreting
for the press conference.

Yes, okay. I'm sorry.
I was afraid I had made a mistake.

-I am Vladimir.
-Nice to meet you.

-What are you drinking? Beer?
-Yes. Why?

Here a true man
must drink real, pure vodka.

-At lunch time?
-You're in Russia.

-Here.
-No, thank you. I'm not used to it.

I don't drink alcohol.

Yes, well, a glass of beer
never killed anyone, did it?

Well, it does if you don't drink alcohol!

Then we can say that it is better
to not drink when in training.

-Then you are a fake non-drinker!
-Yes, right!

-"Cretino"?
-"Cretino"!

-But is it a bad word?
-No, you can use it.

Well, it is even used too often!

All jokes aside, you speak Italian well.

Thank you!

With all the studying I did...

You know, I have never been to Italy.

I took lessons,
but I would really love to go

-to your country one day or another.
-Why don't you do it?

If it were up to me,
I would be there already.

It's a bit complicated, Massimo.

| live with my mother and she is very ill.

Moreover, I'm continuing to study
and money never lasts.

You could find another job,
maybe somewhere else than here.

Don't you have a dream?

Yes! I'd like to become
translator in a publishing house.

Come on! Cool!

See, maybe you will find
your way somewhere.

And then what happens?

Do you believe that happiness
is deserting your home?

And for what then?

For yourself!

For your life, for your future!

I believe that deserting your own country

is like deserting your origin
and your identity.

What are you doing tonight?

I must finish a translation for a friend,

but we can meet after dinner if you want.

Okay!

Will you take me
to a typical Russian place?

-|'|| make you drink real, plain vodka.
-Okay, I'm in.

After my father's death,
my mother sank into a deep depression.

Criminals want to grab her legacy,
destroying the family history.

I fell in a mysterious lethargy,
yet it did not dampen my consciousness.

But what do people do here after dinner
aside from drinking plain vodka?

Massimo that's prejudicial.

Then in Italy you only eat pizza
and play mandolin with the mafia--

Stop it, I understood!
Jesus! Russians, how proud you are,

Russians, how proud you are!

Do you hear it?

-|t's music!
-Yeah!

Shall we climb over?

No, are you crazy?
It's private property!

That is nonsense!

I know why you say this.
It's because you can't do it.

Of course I can do it.
I can't climb over a gate?

Maybe you can't do it.

I don't think you realize
who you are dealing with.

Grab this!

No, Massimo!

Do you see? You can't do it, I told you!
Come down!

Italian!

Help me, though!

Can you see anything? What's there?

No, there is nothing!

Sorry!

Your clothes are dirty!

No, Massimo!

Italian guy, espresso coffee.

Espresso, uh?

Isn't it okay?

You wouldn't drink coffee,
would you drink cappuccino?

I can make cappuccino too.

No, it's okay, thank you!

But next time I'll make cappuccino.

When I was a child, my parents
used to bring me here.

I have wonderful memories.

Sometimes I come back here
when things start getting bad.

Where are your parents now?

My mother is here,
my father isn't here anymore.

He ran away with another woman
when I was child.

I've never heard from him since then.

He used to call me for my birthday,
but recently not even that.

My mother is very ill,
she needs very expensive treatments.

This is why I cannot leave,
I must stay with her.

So, when I feel sad
and want to flee the situation

I come here, sit on these couches
and start traveling.

Well, at least the ticket is cheap.

I’ve had few love stories in my life,
and they all ended up badly.

Someone said that you fall in love
only once in your lifetime,

but I don’t think it’s true.

I thought that all was over,

that I missed the train of love,

but I was wrong.

We are surrounded by people
Who want to be loved

and people Who are Willing to love us.

We only need to keep in mind
that everything starts from us.

We are energy
and so we attract situations and people.

Energy is not created,
nor is it destroyed.

Everything changes.

And I needed to transform myself
into something better too,

and that was happening,
thanks to Vladimir.

"...to me, Maciste! Help!"

...rea|ly, is it true?

This is wonderful!

Yes. It takes me a lot of time.

In fact it seems very difficult.

How did you do it?

Here.

No, really!

Thank you!

Never would have I imagined
that I could find myself

in such a situation again.

[was in love.

We were beyond space and time.

in an independentplace,
not mine, not his.

Totally ours.

[remember that there were
no barriers or limits.

We were connected. Glances would suffice.

You must fight to obtain what you love.

You must fight to obtain what you love.

Maciste absolutely wants to find the girl.

But the path is not always easy.

We are prisoners of our beliefs.

Your family knows about you?

It has been a few years now.

I told my brother first.

We were so drunk.

But you know, I thought
it was the right moment to tell him,

so I did it.

How did it go?

Very well. I couldn't believe it.

You know,

I think that people who truly love you

will eventually appreciate the effort
you make in telling them who you are.

And then one day,
they will be even grateful to you.

Your mother?

Does she know?

No, are you crazy?

I could never tell her.

Most of all she doesn't deserve this now
with all she is going through.

Well, I think this is exactly
the right moment to tell her.

And she already knows.

Mothers always know.

I don't know, and if I lack the courage?

And I think about her reaction.
What if she didn't understand?

Come on, she will understand, you'll see.

Just wait for the right moment
to tell her.

See, I think that
we must be honest and genuine

with the people who love us.

Yes, maybe, but we are not in Italy here,
Massimo.

We're in Russia.

Today hatred has prevailed and moreover
fear has increased since Putin's law.

There are homophobic groups
who wait in ambush for gay people

only to beat them up and see their blood.

Respect comes from the mind,
but hatred comes from the heart.

No feeling is completely
under our own control.

But I think that we need to fight

in order to change things and be free.

Free?

You talk of freedom,

you don't even know
what freedom really is!

We're afraid to leave home,
afraid that someone might follow us.

Anxiety and panic attacks
are an everyday story.

I wake up at night
and can't sleep like before.

I'm even scared of my own shadow.

And you come and talk to me about freedom!

You don't even know what freedom is!

I'm sorry.

I didn't want to judge you.

Hey listen,

I'm
