1
00:03:22,791 --> 00:03:25,416
BASED ON A TRUE STORY
2
00:03:32,041 --> 00:03:34,958
I think it's row six, center left.
3
00:03:35,041 --> 00:03:35,875
Very good.
4
00:03:45,041 --> 00:03:46,500
Get me Clark from security.
5
00:03:48,500 --> 00:03:52,833
A tall, huge wig on the head.
6
00:03:52,916 --> 00:03:55,791
Truly gigantic!
7
00:03:55,875 --> 00:03:58,458
You know what style I'm referring to.
8
00:03:58,541 --> 00:04:01,083
{\an8}And what's more, he wears it
9
00:04:01,166 --> 00:04:03,666
{\an8}a coat
definitely too large for her,
10
00:04:03,750 --> 00:04:07,875
even if in the room
it's almost 32 degrees.
11
00:04:07,958 --> 00:04:11,625
She is stopped and searched
from safety.
12
00:04:11,708 --> 00:04:16,166
And in the wig,
he had hidden a microphone.
13
00:04:16,250 --> 00:04:17,875
Yes, a microphone!
14
00:04:17,958 --> 00:04:21,458
And, under the coat,
a recorder.
15
00:04:21,541 --> 00:04:23,041
True story!
16
00:04:23,875 --> 00:04:25,208
Incredible!
17
00:04:25,291 --> 00:04:27,500
You see, I forbid recordings,
18
00:04:27,583 --> 00:04:34,041
because I believe the only true way
to experience music both live,
19
00:04:34,125 --> 00:04:35,958
in a concert hall.
20
00:04:36,041 --> 00:04:38,083
Not through a registration.
21
00:04:38,166 --> 00:04:39,791
Absolutely, Master!
22
00:04:39,875 --> 00:04:42,375
There is already great enthusiasm
throughout Japan
23
00:04:42,458 --> 00:04:44,750
for his tour
with the Munich Philharmonic.
24
00:04:44,833 --> 00:04:49,500
Thank you! My last visit to Japan
it was a great revelation.
25
00:04:49,583 --> 00:04:55,500
And, by the way, thanks for sending me
the contract before the meeting.
26
00:04:55,583 --> 00:04:57,666
This, too, is a revelation.
27
00:04:57,750 --> 00:04:59,291
Of course, Master!
28
00:04:59,375 --> 00:05:03,250
I'm sure you'll be satisfied
all the conditions he requested.
29
00:05:03,333 --> 00:05:05,625
Ten tests for each program.
30
00:05:05,708 --> 00:05:11,375
Yes, it seems that in this life, however,
there is always an article eight,
31
00:05:12,125 --> 00:05:13,583
Mr. Tanaka.
32
00:05:14,333 --> 00:05:19,875
The one he mentions
the digital exploitation of concerts.
33
00:05:21,666 --> 00:05:23,958
Two years after the tour, Maestro.
34
00:05:25,291 --> 00:05:30,666
Our technology will allow
a perfect replica of the live experience.
35
00:05:30,750 --> 00:05:34,375
No, actually he won't allow it,
and in any case, you miss the essential point.
36
00:05:34,458 --> 00:05:35,500
Master...
37
00:05:35,583 --> 00:05:36,666
Your technology
38
00:05:36,750 --> 00:05:41,750
it does nothing but drive us away
more and more alive sounding...
39
00:05:42,458 --> 00:05:44,333
Anyone want some polenta?
40
00:05:44,416 --> 00:05:48,458
...and by a living audience
the live experience in a concert hall.
41
00:05:48,541 --> 00:05:51,708
So, there will be no recordings.
42
00:05:51,791 --> 00:05:54,333
Maestro, digital technology...
43
00:05:54,416 --> 00:05:57,458
No, don't ask me questions about semantics!
I am not interested.
44
00:05:57,541 --> 00:06:00,333
The economics of our sector
it's changing.
45
00:06:00,416 --> 00:06:01,291
The economy?!
46
00:06:01,375 --> 00:06:04,875
Miserable bastards who are nothing else!
47
00:06:04,958 --> 00:06:06,833
You created the economy!
48
00:06:06,916 --> 00:06:12,250
People like you
they kill classical music!
49
00:06:12,333 --> 00:06:13,166
Bitsi!
50
00:06:13,250 --> 00:06:16,625
People have even lost their sense
for live concerts!
51
00:06:16,708 --> 00:06:17,541
Murderers!
52
00:06:17,625 --> 00:06:18,958
Shame on you!
53
00:06:19,041 --> 00:06:21,666
You killed classical music!
54
00:06:21,750 --> 00:06:26,416
She died because of you
and those like you!
55
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,916
She's dead and you're the culprits!
56
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:31,083
Guilty!
57
00:06:31,166 --> 00:06:34,583
Shame on you,
with all your digital microphones!
58
00:06:34,666 --> 00:06:37,000
Damn murderers!
59
00:06:46,416 --> 00:06:48,666
{\an8}The great city of Iași
60
00:06:48,750 --> 00:06:53,375
{\an8}gathered today to honor
one of the bravest
61
00:06:53,458 --> 00:06:57,208
and devoted servants
of our nation.
62
00:06:57,875 --> 00:07:03,833
For the extraordinary services rendered to the country,
Colonel Demosthenes Celibidache, I declare it
63
00:07:03,916 --> 00:07:07,625
honorary citizen of the city of Iași
64
00:07:07,708 --> 00:07:11,166
and I decorate it with the Commemorative Cross.
65
00:08:39,208 --> 00:08:40,500
At the table!
66
00:08:47,666 --> 00:08:48,708
At the table!
67
00:08:54,416 --> 00:08:56,166
Sergiu, for the third time!
68
00:08:56,791 --> 00:08:58,125
At the table!
69
00:09:17,708 --> 00:09:20,083
Where did you go after the ceremony?
70
00:09:22,333 --> 00:09:24,916
Your absence at the banquet
it was an insult...
71
00:09:26,916 --> 00:09:28,625
noticed by everyone.
72
00:09:31,750 --> 00:09:34,000
I repeat: where did you go?
73
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,666
Follow me, Sergiu!
74
00:10:02,458 --> 00:10:03,291
Guys,
75
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:04,916
eat!
76
00:10:05,750 --> 00:10:08,500
Because you can't respect
family values?
77
00:10:10,333 --> 00:10:11,625
Answers!
78
00:10:14,125 --> 00:10:15,250
Answer me!
79
00:10:18,708 --> 00:10:19,958
Answers!
80
00:11:29,916 --> 00:11:34,541
You should find
more interesting subjects to film.
81
00:11:36,666 --> 00:11:38,125
I should have resumed yesterday...
82
00:11:39,416 --> 00:11:43,166
With Tanaka? No...
83
00:11:43,833 --> 00:11:46,791
This topic
it is as old as the scriptures.
84
00:11:47,625 --> 00:11:50,958
You need new, original subjects.
85
00:11:51,041 --> 00:11:52,583
Significant.
86
00:11:55,458 --> 00:11:57,958
It seemed significant,
from my point of view.
87
00:11:59,416 --> 00:12:04,000
As we know, I don't react well
to this type of deception.
88
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:13,458
Whatever film you want to create,
Miki, let me be honest.
89
00:12:14,375 --> 00:12:16,750
Yes, that's what I want.
90
00:12:16,833 --> 00:12:20,000
You should see what I've shot so far.
91
00:12:20,083 --> 00:12:23,083
- It's all wonderful. Really.
- I'm sure of it.
92
00:12:24,416 --> 00:12:28,791
But always the truth.
Beauty is just the bait.
93
00:12:31,375 --> 00:12:32,833
Did you find it?
94
00:12:32,916 --> 00:12:34,291
Found what?
95
00:12:35,375 --> 00:12:36,541
The truth.
96
00:12:41,291 --> 00:12:44,541
I guess sometimes,
97
00:12:44,625 --> 00:12:48,875
when everything comes together in a concert
98
00:12:48,958 --> 00:12:51,833
and all the elements come together...
99
00:12:54,291 --> 00:12:59,583
it's possible, almost possible,
transcend beauty.
100
00:13:00,583 --> 00:13:04,458
And what about your compositions?
101
00:13:10,833 --> 00:13:12,583
I'm still looking...
102
00:13:31,250 --> 00:13:32,791
Very good, son!
103
00:13:34,458 --> 00:13:37,666
Best in class
in all subjects...
104
00:13:38,541 --> 00:13:40,000
as was to be expected.
105
00:13:41,166 --> 00:13:42,000
Please.
106
00:13:44,833 --> 00:13:48,000
Notable in German and English.
107
00:13:52,125 --> 00:13:54,041
One day it will be yours, Sergiu.
108
00:13:54,625 --> 00:13:56,875
You will continue my fight,
serving the country,
109
00:13:56,958 --> 00:13:58,750
to earn your medal.
110
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:04,291
But on the final exam, 19 out of 20.
111
00:14:05,250 --> 00:14:07,208
It's not enough, Sergiu.
112
00:14:07,833 --> 00:14:11,875
And why a "minus 10" in social sciences?
113
00:14:11,958 --> 00:14:14,208
He gave us an unscheduled test.
114
00:14:14,791 --> 00:14:16,250
I don't think anyone got a 10.
115
00:14:16,333 --> 00:14:17,916
You are "nobody".
116
00:14:19,500 --> 00:14:20,958
You are a Celibidache.
117
00:14:23,291 --> 00:14:25,875
And to remind you,
I have something for you.
118
00:14:34,875 --> 00:14:36,750
- I can...?
- You can.
119
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,333
I bought it for you
when you were born.
120
00:14:44,458 --> 00:14:46,750
A warm and sunny day,
I remember.
121
00:14:46,833 --> 00:14:49,583
A memorable day. My first child.
122
00:14:49,666 --> 00:14:52,916
The heir to the Celibidache dynasty.
123
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,208
- Do you like it?
- Sure, dad.
124
00:14:55,291 --> 00:14:57,166
- I like it very much.
- Excellent.
125
00:14:57,250 --> 00:15:00,500
A tie for a future prime minister
of Romania!
126
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:03,875
Thanks, dad!
127
00:15:46,583 --> 00:15:47,916
GUESTS - LOCALS 0 - 2
128
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:48,916
Sergiu!
129
00:15:53,375 --> 00:15:54,625
Ginel!
130
00:16:08,250 --> 00:16:10,083
Great goal, Sergiu!
131
00:16:10,166 --> 00:16:11,541
You can't do it now!
132
00:16:12,791 --> 00:16:14,833
You're done for the day.
133
00:16:14,916 --> 00:16:18,625
- Why? Ginel!
- Time to freshen up. Look at you!
134
00:16:19,708 --> 00:16:20,916
Yes, captain, at your orders!
135
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:23,208
This means
take one for the team.
136
00:16:23,958 --> 00:16:28,166
- Ginel did all the work.
- Yes, he is as smart as a fox.
137
00:16:28,250 --> 00:16:30,083
Let me take a look at your elbow.
138
00:16:30,166 --> 00:16:32,083
- It's nothing.
- I decide this.
139
00:16:39,625 --> 00:16:40,875
Interesting.
140
00:16:41,791 --> 00:16:42,625
What?
141
00:16:44,541 --> 00:16:45,833
You will win.
142
00:16:47,208 --> 00:16:50,500
Yes. We lead by three goals
and ten minutes to go.
143
00:16:51,666 --> 00:16:53,500
You will win, Sergiu.
144
00:16:54,708 --> 00:16:56,416
You will be a king.
145
00:16:57,708 --> 00:16:59,041
A king without a crown.
146
00:17:04,500 --> 00:17:06,125
Shalom, Sergiu.
147
00:17:07,333 --> 00:17:08,750
Shalom, Golda.
148
00:17:19,083 --> 00:17:21,916
So... you and Golda?
149
00:17:22,833 --> 00:17:24,125
Cute.
150
00:17:26,250 --> 00:17:28,583
I saw you two talking... He took your hand.
151
00:17:29,083 --> 00:17:31,666
When he took my hand, he was talking about you.
152
00:17:31,750 --> 00:17:36,291
Well done Sergiu! Very thin.
Come on, don't tell me lies.
153
00:17:36,375 --> 00:17:37,291
I swear to you, brother!
154
00:17:37,375 --> 00:17:38,500
Nice try!
155
00:17:39,458 --> 00:17:41,708
However, it wouldn't work.
156
00:17:41,791 --> 00:17:45,208
Golda and I are not... compatible.
157
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,166
I mean... it could never work, right?
158
00:17:49,875 --> 00:17:51,250
Absolutely not.
159
00:18:34,291 --> 00:18:35,666
Dad is in the study.
160
00:18:48,541 --> 00:18:49,541
After you!
161
00:18:57,333 --> 00:19:00,958
The last three prime ministers
of Romania
162
00:19:02,333 --> 00:19:06,375
they graduated from the Institute
Bucharest Polytechnic.
163
00:19:09,250 --> 00:19:11,000
This admission letter
164
00:19:12,125 --> 00:19:14,208
it can be your ticket
to lead the country.
165
00:19:15,666 --> 00:19:18,083
Romania must be governed,
unguided.
166
00:19:19,458 --> 00:19:22,791
I don't agree,
but you will come to understand it.
167
00:19:23,500 --> 00:19:26,625
The truth is that our people
it needs a strong leader.
168
00:19:28,833 --> 00:19:30,541
It won't be me, dad.
169
00:19:33,500 --> 00:19:37,875
After the Great War,
I spent entire months in hospital,
170
00:19:37,958 --> 00:19:41,125
with a body full of blisters
for toxic gases.
171
00:19:41,916 --> 00:19:47,750
I prayed for healing to continue
to serve the country.
172
00:19:47,833 --> 00:19:52,375
I didn't tell anyone except your mother,
that I was in terrible pain.
173
00:19:54,750 --> 00:20:00,875
But I was calm, because I knew that you
you would have reached where I couldn't.
174
00:20:05,583 --> 00:20:06,666
Dad...
175
00:20:09,625 --> 00:20:13,833
I informed the Polytechnic Institute
that I won't show up in the fall.
176
00:20:14,375 --> 00:20:16,750
Never again, to be honest.
177
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:20,666
How do I pray? What did you do?
178
00:20:22,208 --> 00:20:25,708
I love music.
I want to become a composer.
179
00:20:26,916 --> 00:20:30,291
Bullshit!
What absolute stupidity, Sergiu!
180
00:20:31,541 --> 00:20:34,291
You like music, that's fine, but...
181
00:20:34,375 --> 00:20:36,708
It's not about what I like,
but who I am.
182
00:20:36,791 --> 00:20:40,291
No! You're deluding yourself, Sergiu.
183
00:20:41,166 --> 00:20:42,958
You don't want to be a composer.
184
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,583
I will write to the Institute
and I'll tell them you made a mistake.
185
00:20:46,666 --> 00:20:49,291
- I've decided. I can't live without...
- The music?!
186
00:20:49,375 --> 00:20:50,833
It's stuff for gypsies.
187
00:20:52,125 --> 00:20:53,583
You will honor the family, Sergiu!
188
00:20:54,833 --> 00:20:58,708
If I hear this ridiculous idea again,
you will be punished severely.
189
00:20:58,791 --> 00:21:00,708
The time of your punishments
it's over, dad.
190
00:21:06,208 --> 00:21:08,583
As long as you live under this roof,
191
00:21:10,166 --> 00:21:13,208
you will do what I say!
192
00:21:15,166 --> 00:21:19,541
If you choose to follow this path,
you will do it without family support.
193
00:21:19,625 --> 00:21:22,791
Without me, without your mother.
194
00:21:24,875 --> 00:21:26,708
You will be alone.
195
00:21:29,583 --> 00:21:31,291
Then I'll leave tomorrow morning.
196
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,333
Don't forget
to give back the yellow tie!
197
00:21:40,416 --> 00:21:41,541
It's your gift.
198
00:21:42,541 --> 00:21:47,000
Since you have chosen the life of a gypsy,
you won't need it anymore.
199
00:21:49,416 --> 00:21:55,083
You'll end up in a dirty bar,
surrounded by drunks and whores.
200
00:21:58,041 --> 00:21:59,250
The tie stays here.
201
00:22:30,083 --> 00:22:31,416
Good luck!
202
00:22:52,625 --> 00:22:54,750
Go and score another goal, Sergiu!
203
00:22:56,416 --> 00:22:57,791
Yes, captain, at your orders!
204
00:23:49,500 --> 00:23:51,083
How is it going?
205
00:23:52,375 --> 00:23:53,791
We haven't gotten anywhere.
206
00:23:56,916 --> 00:23:58,458
I made you some chamomile tea.
207
00:23:59,833 --> 00:24:02,333
Thanks, Poufig.
208
00:24:08,708 --> 00:24:10,125
And Miki?
209
00:24:11,166 --> 00:24:13,791
- What's with Miki?
- I do not know.
210
00:24:15,458 --> 00:24:19,083
A director doesn't earn millions,
211
00:24:19,166 --> 00:24:21,500
especially with documentaries.
212
00:24:24,541 --> 00:24:26,125
What do we leave him?
213
00:24:27,166 --> 00:24:30,500
We leave him what is most valuable.
214
00:24:30,583 --> 00:24:34,500
An education,
fundamental values and principles.
215
00:24:39,833 --> 00:24:40,916
What is it?
216
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,833
You keep sending money
to all these people.
217
00:24:44,916 --> 00:24:47,458
In India, in Tibet, everywhere...
218
00:24:48,750 --> 00:24:50,958
You don't even know how they are used.
219
00:24:51,041 --> 00:24:54,416
Are we really discussing this again?
220
00:24:54,500 --> 00:24:58,208
Give money to whoever you want and how you want,
but think of him, Bitsi!
221
00:24:59,458 --> 00:25:05,458
CD royalties may
give him time to find his way.
222
00:25:05,541 --> 00:25:07,583
I can't do it. I couldn't.
223
00:25:08,666 --> 00:25:11,083
You might as well sell cocaine.
224
00:25:11,166 --> 00:25:12,291
Bitsi!
225
00:25:12,375 --> 00:25:17,875
What's the difference? Both are pleasant,
both are profitable.
226
00:25:18,416 --> 00:25:20,083
Both deadly!
227
00:25:21,375 --> 00:25:23,916
You exaggerate, as usual.
228
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,208
Yes, I exaggerate.
229
00:25:26,291 --> 00:25:28,916
Recorded music is much more harmful.
230
00:25:31,083 --> 00:25:34,083
Miki will be fine, Poufig.
231
00:25:38,916 --> 00:25:41,875
{\an8}BUCHAREST, ROMANIA
232
00:26:52,291 --> 00:26:53,125
Hey!
233
00:27:02,500 --> 00:27:03,583
Sorry...
234
00:27:04,666 --> 00:27:05,916
Sorry, I don't have any money.
235
00:27:10,291 --> 00:27:11,333
Cute.
236
00:27:15,041 --> 00:27:16,166
What is your name?
237
00:27:17,208 --> 00:27:21,583
I really... don't care. Excuse me.
238
00:27:21,666 --> 00:27:25,291
You are very arrogant for one
sleeping on a bench.
239
00:27:32,375 --> 00:27:33,541
Sergiu.
240
00:27:34,333 --> 00:27:37,750
- Hello, Sergiu. I am Ortancia.
- Pleasure.
241
00:27:39,666 --> 00:27:41,458
What are you doing here?
242
00:27:41,541 --> 00:27:42,916
Nothing. I...
243
00:27:44,458 --> 00:27:46,041
I'm lost, I think.
244
00:27:48,583 --> 00:27:50,291
Do you do anything in life?
245
00:27:51,916 --> 00:27:53,250
Yes, I'm...
246
00:27:54,750 --> 00:27:55,625
I'm a musician.
247
00:27:58,291 --> 00:28:00,833
Where's your tool? Are you a singer?
248
00:28:00,916 --> 00:28:03,791
No, I'm not a singer.
249
00:28:03,875 --> 00:28:04,958
I play the piano.
250
00:28:07,041 --> 00:28:08,500
And I compose.
251
00:28:09,625 --> 00:28:11,083
What kind of music?
252
00:28:11,166 --> 00:28:13,250
Of every kind. Of everything.
253
00:28:14,541 --> 00:28:15,916
Jazz?
254
00:28:16,541 --> 00:28:18,125
Yes, I like jazz.
255
00:28:18,208 --> 00:28:19,875
Then maybe I can help you.
256
00:28:20,500 --> 00:28:23,708
Oh no! Thanks, but...
257
00:28:24,208 --> 00:28:28,875
That's fine. That's all...
Everything is under control.
258
00:28:29,583 --> 00:28:30,750
Yes...
259
00:28:32,500 --> 00:28:34,458
Absolutely, everything under control.
260
00:28:37,875 --> 00:28:40,458
How about we give it a try
at the bar where I work?
261
00:28:43,375 --> 00:28:45,000
A handsome boy like you...
262
00:29:23,166 --> 00:29:25,125
...don't worry about me, mom.
263
00:29:25,208 --> 00:29:26,750
I'm fine and I'm safe.
264
00:29:27,625 --> 00:29:29,875
Bucharest is a city
wonderful and full of life.
265
00:29:30,875 --> 00:29:34,708
I've already found a job,
as a pianist in a renowned venue.
266
00:29:35,666 --> 00:29:39,583
Moreover, I already have excellent knowledge,
some very influential.
267
00:29:40,333 --> 00:29:44,041
I live comfortably,
in a respectable neighborhood.
268
00:29:44,125 --> 00:29:47,791
I miss you,
but don't worry, I don't miss anything.
269
00:31:07,833 --> 00:31:10,791
Soon you will have used it
all the notes in the world.
270
00:31:11,541 --> 00:31:14,083
Or, at least, all the writing paper.
271
00:31:14,166 --> 00:31:16,333
Play me one! Your favorite.
272
00:31:16,416 --> 00:31:18,458
None are ready.
273
00:31:19,375 --> 00:31:20,833
Where are my gloves?
274
00:31:24,333 --> 00:31:28,791
Who knows why I think I'll be old
and deaf before one is ready.
275
00:31:35,750 --> 00:31:37,500
How did I get so lucky?
276
00:31:42,291 --> 00:31:43,750
Because of the hair.
277
00:31:44,458 --> 00:31:45,750
Surely.
278
00:31:50,083 --> 00:31:51,791
And your eyes.
279
00:31:52,500 --> 00:31:55,625
I melted a little
when I looked at them for the first time.
280
00:31:56,166 --> 00:31:58,958
Which is a lot
for a heart of stone like mine.
281
00:32:01,166 --> 00:32:02,916
You don't have a heart of stone...
282
00:32:05,458 --> 00:32:07,875
You are the best person
I've ever met.
283
00:32:07,958 --> 00:32:09,833
Don't tell anyone!
284
00:32:09,916 --> 00:32:11,708
I have a reputation to uphold.
285
00:32:14,583 --> 00:32:15,791
How do you do it?
286
00:32:16,416 --> 00:32:17,708
To do what?
287
00:32:19,625 --> 00:32:21,041
This thing you do...
288
00:32:21,791 --> 00:32:23,875
You get through everything with a smile.
289
00:32:25,875 --> 00:32:26,875
Do I do it like this?
290
00:32:34,958 --> 00:32:37,541
Sometimes I concentrate...
291
00:32:39,333 --> 00:32:41,416
where I want to be...
292
00:32:43,291 --> 00:32:45,375
not about what I'm into.
293
00:32:48,375 --> 00:32:50,208
And where would you like to be?
294
00:32:55,875 --> 00:32:57,625
At this moment...
295
00:32:58,833 --> 00:33:01,916
I wouldn't want to be anywhere else.
296
00:33:06,166 --> 00:33:07,458
One, two,
297
00:33:07,541 --> 00:33:11,083
three, four, five,
298
00:33:11,166 --> 00:33:15,541
six, seven and eight. And one,
299
00:33:15,625 --> 00:33:19,750
two, three, four, five,
300
00:33:19,833 --> 00:33:23,083
six, seven and eight.
301
00:33:23,166 --> 00:33:28,500
One, two, three, four, five,
302
00:33:28,583 --> 00:33:31,791
six, seven and eight.
303
00:33:31,875 --> 00:33:37,250
One, two, three, four, five,
304
00:33:37,333 --> 00:33:40,583
six, seven and eight.
305
00:33:40,666 --> 00:33:44,916
Arms outstretched. Two, three, four.
306
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:49,333
Five. Preparation. Six, seven and eight.
307
00:33:49,416 --> 00:33:51,333
Ioana Procopie Dumitrescu, what are you doing?
308
00:33:51,416 --> 00:33:54,666
Excuse me, Madame. My feet
they wanted to do another pirouette.
309
00:33:54,750 --> 00:33:56,083
Fifth position, please!
310
00:33:58,416 --> 00:34:01,083
Now, ladies,
gather around the piano!
311
00:34:08,833 --> 00:34:10,166
And smile!
312
00:34:45,166 --> 00:34:48,166
You have listened to the renowned composer
Heinz Tiessen,
313
00:34:48,250 --> 00:34:51,375
manage his suite,
the Hamlet Suite Opus 30.
314
00:34:52,791 --> 00:34:56,083
The Berliner is one of the composers
most avant-garde Germans
315
00:34:56,166 --> 00:34:59,333
He is a prominent figure
of the neoclassical movement.
316
00:35:00,041 --> 00:35:04,583
Heinz Tiessen is one of the personalities
leading figure in classical music.
317
00:35:05,458 --> 00:35:06,458
Today's headlines...
318
00:35:06,541 --> 00:35:10,000
The Chancellor of Germany, Hitler,
reaffirmed the commitment today
319
00:35:10,083 --> 00:35:14,083
in imposing the sovereignty of his country
in the overall international climate.
320
00:35:14,166 --> 00:35:15,458
Addressing the Reichstag,
321
00:35:15,541 --> 00:35:18,125
underlined the commitment
of the German government for peace,
322
00:35:18,208 --> 00:35:20,708
insisting that Germany's goal
for sovereignty
323
00:35:20,791 --> 00:35:23,875
Itshould not be confused
with the desire for aggression.
324
00:35:23,958 --> 00:35:27,583
Rather, he declared,
aims to ensure the future of the nation
325
00:35:27,666 --> 00:35:30,916
in a marked world
from geopolitical uncertainties.
326
00:36:36,416 --> 00:36:39,541
COME TO BERLIN NOW.
PROFESSOR HEINZ TIESSEN.
327
00:37:01,791 --> 00:37:03,333
I prayed for this day to come...
328
00:37:06,125 --> 00:37:08,208
but I hoped "another day" would come.
329
00:37:08,291 --> 00:37:09,458
Ortancia, I...
330
00:37:28,541 --> 00:37:30,375
Now go to hell!
331
00:37:32,166 --> 00:37:34,750
Before you change your mind
and tie you to the bed!
332
00:38:36,541 --> 00:38:39,166
- Is this place occupied?
- No, please.
333
00:38:39,250 --> 00:38:40,500
Thank you.
334
00:38:42,125 --> 00:38:43,291
I was about to lose it!
335
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,708
- Where are you going, young man?
- In Berlin.
336
00:38:49,791 --> 00:38:51,458
- In Berlin?
- Yes.
337
00:38:52,333 --> 00:38:54,333
- And her?
- Me too.
338
00:38:55,083 --> 00:38:59,416
English teacher
at Friedrich Wilhelm University.
339
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:03,541
- Albert Einstein studied there.
- Exact!
340
00:39:06,083 --> 00:39:10,291
Doctor Einstein
he now lives in the United States.
341
00:39:11,416 --> 00:39:13,041
I knew it.
342
00:39:15,125 --> 00:39:16,583
Young man,
343
00:39:16,666 --> 00:39:19,291
Germany is... changing.
344
00:39:23,125 --> 00:39:28,541
As things stand,
It won't be easy for people like you.
345
00:39:28,625 --> 00:39:30,333
Those like me?
346
00:39:30,416 --> 00:39:34,875
Well, foreigners, minorities.
347
00:39:35,750 --> 00:39:41,208
This "Führer" is limiting gradually
the rights and freedoms of many people.
348
00:39:42,625 --> 00:39:44,708
Of the so-called "opponents".
349
00:39:45,375 --> 00:39:47,583
It is said...
350
00:39:47,666 --> 00:39:51,000
which will get much, much worse.
351
00:40:25,458 --> 00:40:27,333
{\an8}BERLIN, GERMANY
352
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:20,875
Professor, it's me!
353
00:41:20,958 --> 00:41:23,375
Professor Tiessen, it's me.
Celibidache...
354
00:41:24,416 --> 00:41:25,916
Celibidache!
355
00:41:31,041 --> 00:41:33,875
Celibidache.
356
00:41:37,708 --> 00:41:40,041
Enter. Soon!
357
00:41:49,958 --> 00:41:51,375
Dear Sonia,
358
00:41:51,458 --> 00:41:55,000
I am writing to you from Berlin, where I was taken
under the wing of Professor Tiessen,
359
00:41:55,791 --> 00:41:58,791
a renowned composer,
who seems to believe in me.
360
00:42:00,208 --> 00:42:02,583
We immersed ourselves in the romantic repertoire.
361
00:42:02,666 --> 00:42:04,625
It's absolutely fascinating.
362
00:42:05,666 --> 00:42:07,708
We also work on my compositions,
363
00:42:07,791 --> 00:42:10,791
which brings me
to new, unimaginable discoveries.
364
00:42:18,541 --> 00:42:20,291
Today I found some chicken.
365
00:42:29,791 --> 00:42:30,916
Your hands...
366
00:42:34,250 --> 00:42:35,791
Sergiu, your hands!
367
00:42:36,333 --> 00:42:37,375
What?
368
00:42:39,250 --> 00:42:41,708
Your hands are free as a bird!
369
00:42:51,125 --> 00:42:52,125
Direct!
370
00:42:53,625 --> 00:42:54,833
As?
371
00:42:55,458 --> 00:42:58,708
Conduct your score, Sergiu! I play.
372
00:43:13,916 --> 00:43:14,958
Yes...
373
00:43:32,166 --> 00:43:34,833
No! You can't do that!
374
00:43:36,708 --> 00:43:38,833
You can't open your arms like this!
375
00:43:39,500 --> 00:43:41,333
You look weak in front of the orchestra.
376
00:43:44,083 --> 00:43:46,583
You must always be in control
of the orchestra.
377
00:43:46,666 --> 00:43:48,791
Always in control.
378
00:43:51,958 --> 00:43:54,291
Otherwise, they will eat you alive.
379
00:44:10,750 --> 00:44:14,125
That's better. Much better!
380
00:44:18,125 --> 00:44:19,458
Yes!
381
00:44:22,333 --> 00:44:24,333
You hear the music so clearly.
382
00:44:24,416 --> 00:44:27,458
The music flows through you.
It's simply sublime!
383
00:44:27,541 --> 00:44:32,041
It's wonderful, professor,
but I want to become a composer.
384
00:44:39,666 --> 00:44:42,666
My dear Sergiu,
you can compose for your whole life.
385
00:44:42,750 --> 00:44:44,083
You're very good at this.
386
00:44:44,166 --> 00:44:46,208
But now I see clearly:
387
00:44:46,291 --> 00:44:49,208
conducting is your ticket
entrance to the Conservatory.
388
00:44:50,208 --> 00:44:53,750
You're so natural,
so light and graceful.
389
00:44:56,666 --> 00:44:57,708
Still!
390
00:45:04,083 --> 00:45:07,541
Today, the professor opened my eyes
on the richness of the art of management.
391
00:45:09,666 --> 00:45:13,291
He wants me to take the management exam
at the Berlin Conservatory of Music.
392
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:16,875
"He says the future
belongs to conductors,
393
00:45:16,958 --> 00:45:20,041
because people need a face
associated with music.
394
00:45:21,750 --> 00:45:23,916
He thinks I have
a certain gift for this.
395
00:45:33,208 --> 00:45:35,416
The tension in Berlin is palpable.
396
00:45:35,500 --> 00:45:38,875
The new laws deprived the Jews
of almost all rights.
397
00:45:40,500 --> 00:45:44,833
Germans look at foreigners with suspicion,
especially if they have darker skin.
398
00:45:46,541 --> 00:45:48,666
I feel safe
by Professor Tiessen,
399
00:45:48,750 --> 00:45:52,166
where music fills my days
and my nights.
400
00:45:52,250 --> 00:45:54,000
I love you, Sergiu."
401
00:46:07,708 --> 00:46:08,958
That's enough.
402
00:46:21,333 --> 00:46:26,166
You will find on the list that
I just put it on the bulletin board,
403
00:46:26,250 --> 00:46:28,375
the names of the candidates who passed
404
00:46:28,458 --> 00:46:33,166
the exam for the new class of students
at the Conservatory.
405
00:46:33,250 --> 00:46:36,416
Furthermore, admission is granted to Mr...
406
00:46:36,500 --> 00:46:38,541
Sergiu Celibidache,
407
00:46:38,625 --> 00:46:41,500
with a special mention
408
00:46:41,583 --> 00:46:44,791
"for excellence in conducting".
409
00:46:48,375 --> 00:46:50,625
I'm in, professor!
410
00:46:52,708 --> 00:46:54,000
I entered!
411
00:46:54,666 --> 00:46:55,500
Look!
412
00:46:56,750 --> 00:46:58,125
You did it.
413
00:46:59,916 --> 00:47:01,375
Congratulations!
414
00:47:21,500 --> 00:47:23,416
What are you doing? Do you swim?
415
00:47:23,500 --> 00:47:24,875
There is no water here.
416
00:47:24,958 --> 00:47:27,833
If you want to swim, the water is over there.
417
00:47:31,041 --> 00:47:31,875
With me, please.
418
00:47:47,208 --> 00:47:52,708
You see, this music exists
only here, in this space.
419
00:47:52,791 --> 00:47:56,166
There is no need to bring it from outside.
420
00:47:59,666 --> 00:48:02,166
Find your nature center!
421
00:48:02,250 --> 00:48:05,166
React to the living sound!
422
00:48:05,833 --> 00:48:08,333
To the sound that pulsates with life.
423
00:48:09,250 --> 00:48:10,083
Very good.
424
00:48:10,958 --> 00:48:12,541
Now whose turn is it?
425
00:48:19,041 --> 00:48:22,625
Heil Hitler! Good morning! Sit down!
426
00:48:28,208 --> 00:48:32,125
Gentlemen, in today's lesson we will discuss
427
00:48:32,208 --> 00:48:37,625
of your perception and evaluation
of my concert yesterday.
428
00:48:37,708 --> 00:48:40,750
I hope you liked it.
429
00:48:42,666 --> 00:48:45,750
Whoever wants
share your impressions?
430
00:48:55,541 --> 00:48:57,000
Celibidache!
431
00:48:58,416 --> 00:49:00,833
I would prefer not to express myself.
432
00:49:03,291 --> 00:49:04,583
I beg you.
433
00:49:06,916 --> 00:49:09,791
I noticed some slight imperfections.
434
00:49:11,750 --> 00:49:13,458
Mistakes, to be honest.
435
00:49:14,333 --> 00:49:15,291
Errors?
436
00:49:17,458 --> 00:49:20,833
Well, first of all,
time was too fast.
437
00:49:22,208 --> 00:49:24,833
Definitely too fast.
Especially in the first movement.
438
00:49:24,916 --> 00:49:27,291
He continued to prioritize
to the first violins,
439
00:49:27,375 --> 00:49:29,583
after the music had switched to seconds.
440
00:49:29,666 --> 00:49:30,916
In other words,
441
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:34,375
start a sentence
which then never ends.
442
00:49:36,875 --> 00:49:39,750
Who else thought it was
that it was too fast?
443
00:49:41,125 --> 00:49:45,250
I don't agree at all.
The weather was perfect.
444
00:49:46,208 --> 00:49:49,791
And the balance of the violins, remarkable.
445
00:49:51,750 --> 00:49:56,041
I'm sorry you didn't understand.
446
00:49:59,041 --> 00:50:05,000
Well, you see, this is a simple one
purely subjective point of view.
447
00:50:05,083 --> 00:50:10,041
Our Viennese friend, present here,
he seems to have enjoyed the concert.
448
00:50:13,375 --> 00:50:15,875
Mr. Celibidache...
449
00:50:16,958 --> 00:50:21,625
If your talent is even
to your arrogance,
450
00:50:22,458 --> 00:50:27,958
you could get very far.
451
00:50:32,333 --> 00:50:38,666
But until then, you will learn
by those with experience
452
00:50:38,750 --> 00:50:42,083
and who has been chosen to instruct you.
453
00:50:42,166 --> 00:50:45,666
Thank you, sir. I will do it.
454
00:50:45,750 --> 00:50:49,500
Gorgeous... So, where were we?
455
00:51:26,541 --> 00:51:28,541
{\an8}BERLIN, GERMANY
456
00:51:30,708 --> 00:51:33,291
Dear mother, please don't worry!
457
00:51:34,500 --> 00:51:37,166
If I were to be drafted into the Romanian army,
458
00:51:37,250 --> 00:51:39,500
I decided to refuse.
459
00:51:40,541 --> 00:51:42,958
I cannot tolerate that Romania
has allied itself with Germany
460
00:51:43,041 --> 00:51:45,041
given their abuse and cruelty.
461
00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:53,166
Jews had their homes confiscated
and activities
462
00:51:53,250 --> 00:51:55,416
and their access is limited
in some areas.
463
00:51:57,208 --> 00:51:59,458
I'm worried about Golda's situation
464
00:51:59,541 --> 00:52:01,833
when the German soldiers will be in Romania.
465
00:52:03,541 --> 00:52:07,083
Even if food is scarce, Professor Tiessen
has a large supply of coal,
466
00:52:07,166 --> 00:52:09,291
so it will stay warm during the winter.
467
00:52:20,666 --> 00:52:21,958
Stop!
468
00:52:26,833 --> 00:52:28,666
Isn't it a little late?
469
00:52:31,416 --> 00:52:33,833
I'm on my way home, Mister Officer.
470
00:52:36,625 --> 00:52:37,708
Search him!
471
00:52:55,875 --> 00:52:57,250
Romanian...
472
00:53:02,291 --> 00:53:03,708
Pants down!
473
00:53:05,833 --> 00:53:07,208
How, sorry?!
474
00:53:07,291 --> 00:53:10,083
The pants. Move!
475
00:53:25,666 --> 00:53:26,958
Continues!
476
00:53:45,416 --> 00:53:46,833
We don't see anything!
477
00:53:47,666 --> 00:53:49,500
Your luck! Too small.
478
00:53:50,583 --> 00:53:53,750
Leave him! Romanian asshole!
479
00:53:54,875 --> 00:53:56,625
Come on! Get lost!
480
00:54:00,291 --> 00:54:02,458
Luckily he's not Jewish!
481
00:54:03,041 --> 00:54:07,166
Jews... Romanians... All scum!
482
00:54:07,666 --> 00:54:10,083
Maybe I should have shot him anyway!
483
00:54:11,208 --> 00:54:13,708
It's not worth wasting a bullet.
484
00:54:16,291 --> 00:54:19,083
The instability of intervals
485
00:54:19,166 --> 00:54:20,833
gives it a strangeness,
486
00:54:20,916 --> 00:54:23,541
a sinister tension, a threat.
487
00:54:32,500 --> 00:54:34,500
I understand you, Sergiu.
488
00:54:35,083 --> 00:54:37,125
We all feel helpless.
489
00:54:37,208 --> 00:54:41,125
But music is your gift, your weapon.
490
00:54:41,208 --> 00:54:43,250
Interpreting the music of the great masters.
491
00:54:43,333 --> 00:54:45,750
And maybe, one day, yours too.
492
00:54:46,500 --> 00:54:49,625
So you bring a ray of hope
in this madness.
493
00:54:50,541 --> 00:54:52,458
Use your gift!
494
00:54:52,541 --> 00:54:54,291
Share it with the whole world!
495
00:55:15,083 --> 00:55:18,708
The tension is so high,
yet the bird is still sleeping!
496
00:55:22,125 --> 00:55:26,500
You see! Only the Russian repertoire
offers such diversity.
497
00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:30,083
The fire under the most delicate shell.
498
00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:36,416
Stravinsky is like Dostoevsky,
only in musical language.
499
00:55:37,916 --> 00:55:40,708
Don't mention it
at the Conservatory.
500
00:55:41,541 --> 00:55:44,166
Russian art is absolutely forbidden now.
501
00:55:44,250 --> 00:55:45,625
- Yes?
- I understand.
502
00:55:45,708 --> 00:55:47,208
Stopped!
503
00:55:47,291 --> 00:55:48,541
Documents!
504
00:55:56,083 --> 00:55:57,000
Dad!
505
00:55:59,250 --> 00:56:01,958
Miki!
I didn't think you'd be back until Tuesday.
506
00:56:02,041 --> 00:56:03,916
I've been looking for you everywhere.
507
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:07,791
I was just contemplating
your mother's new opera. Extraordinary!
508
00:56:07,875 --> 00:56:10,666
- Did you have a good trip?
- Optimal.
509
00:56:10,750 --> 00:56:14,250
I liked USC, but I think NYU
is the right film school for me.
510
00:56:14,333 --> 00:56:18,375
You'll like New York.
So much energy, so much culture!
511
00:56:18,458 --> 00:56:21,250
Yes. I think I've been to ten museums.
512
00:56:23,041 --> 00:56:28,666
And I went to a concert
directed by a new director, very good.
513
00:56:29,333 --> 00:56:30,541
I got his CD.
514
00:56:32,791 --> 00:56:34,958
And... I thought I could help him.
515
00:56:35,041 --> 00:56:40,625
Well, if he wants a career,
you better stay away from me.
516
00:56:40,708 --> 00:56:43,500
- Do you mind if I make some jokes?
- No, not at all.
517
00:57:08,791 --> 00:57:11,125
Miki, what the hell is this?
518
00:57:11,208 --> 00:57:14,250
Did you really think that sounded good?!
519
00:57:15,541 --> 00:57:17,333
It's an abomination!
520
00:57:17,416 --> 00:57:20,958
Who directs?!
This individual is a complete ignoramus!
521
00:57:21,041 --> 00:57:23,708
Dad, it's you...
522
00:57:23,791 --> 00:57:26,083
Munich, 1982.
523
00:57:26,708 --> 00:57:31,000
- Where did you find it?
- They sell them illegally on 42nd Street.
524
00:57:31,083 --> 00:57:33,666
I knew it was happening,
but now it's everywhere!
525
00:57:33,750 --> 00:57:36,708
This shows
my point of view, Miki!
526
00:57:36,791 --> 00:57:42,375
This music cannot be recorded.
It's impossible!
527
00:57:42,458 --> 00:57:44,791
This is rubbish!
528
00:57:44,875 --> 00:57:46,333
Can't you hear?!
529
00:57:47,333 --> 00:57:50,250
- Damn scammers!
- Yes, damned scammers.
530
00:57:50,333 --> 00:57:52,541
- But you allow it.
- How would I allow it?
531
00:57:52,625 --> 00:57:54,208
You let him take your money.
532
00:57:54,291 --> 00:57:56,458
You let them exploit your work!
Don't you understand?
533
00:57:56,541 --> 00:58:01,041
Because I prohibit exploitation
of what I don't consider music?!
534
00:58:01,125 --> 00:58:03,541
Dad, this is elitist bullshit!
535
00:58:03,625 --> 00:58:06,291
- Miki!
- I'm sorry, but it's true.
536
00:58:06,916 --> 00:58:09,708
Exclude people.
You alienate your own audience!
537
00:58:09,791 --> 00:58:14,375
I've spent my whole life,
day and night, bringing real music...
538
00:58:14,458 --> 00:58:17,750
- Some can't come to your shows!
- And this is my fault?
539
00:58:17,833 --> 00:58:20,166
Miki, I refuse to sell a lie!
540
00:58:20,250 --> 00:58:22,083
Very good, keep it up!
541
00:58:22,166 --> 00:58:24,916
Fight against windmills!
It's a losing battle.
542
00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:27,708
Perhaps. However, it's a battle
that is worth fighting for.
543
00:58:27,791 --> 00:58:31,166
Son, never settle
of nothing less than perfection.
544
00:58:31,250 --> 00:58:32,083
Never!
545
00:58:32,958 --> 00:58:34,583
It was great seeing you!
546
00:58:41,500 --> 00:58:43,416
{\an8}BERLIN, GERMANY
547
00:59:35,625 --> 00:59:36,625
Quick!
548
00:59:36,708 --> 00:59:37,750
Run!
549
00:59:38,791 --> 00:59:40,041
Come with me!
550
01:02:46,333 --> 01:02:48,583
{\an8}BERLIN, GERMANY
551
01:02:59,500 --> 01:03:01,666
The Berlin Philharmonic.
552
01:03:01,750 --> 01:03:03,541
Look for a new director.
553
01:03:03,625 --> 01:03:05,125
And Furtwängler?
554
01:03:05,208 --> 01:03:07,875
He can't.
He led under Hitler.
555
01:03:07,958 --> 01:03:10,375
They must distance themselves from the past.
556
01:03:10,458 --> 01:03:12,250
They need fresh blood.
557
01:03:14,375 --> 01:03:19,458
The Americans organize a competition
to choose the new director.
558
01:03:20,916 --> 01:03:22,916
And what does it have to do with me?
559
01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:24,541
Everything, my boy.
560
01:03:24,625 --> 01:03:26,625
It really has to do with you!
561
01:03:26,708 --> 01:03:30,083
Professor, you know very well
that I want to become a composer.
562
01:03:31,500 --> 01:03:35,666
I have so much to say with my music.
Especially now. Everything I saw...
563
01:03:35,750 --> 01:03:38,041
Your voice will be heard, Sergiu.
564
01:03:38,708 --> 01:03:40,875
But we have to build you a platform,
565
01:03:40,958 --> 01:03:44,541
and this opportunity to lead
the largest orchestra in the world
566
01:03:44,625 --> 01:03:46,250
it is a gift from God.
567
01:03:46,333 --> 01:03:47,875
I have no chance.
568
01:03:50,208 --> 01:03:52,041
I barely speak the language.
569
01:03:54,625 --> 01:03:56,125
You speak the language of Music.
570
01:03:58,750 --> 01:04:00,625
Tomorrow at 10:00.
571
01:04:00,708 --> 01:04:02,541
Titania Palast.
572
01:04:29,083 --> 01:04:30,083
Next!
573
01:04:34,166 --> 01:04:36,250
Huge opportunity, right?
574
01:04:36,333 --> 01:04:37,208
Yes.
575
01:04:41,750 --> 01:04:44,333
It seems there are candidates
from every allied country.
576
01:04:45,666 --> 01:04:47,000
What have you prepared?
577
01:04:49,208 --> 01:04:52,541
- For the repertoire of your choice...
- It's so vast.
578
01:04:54,875 --> 01:04:56,166
So broad.
579
01:04:59,500 --> 01:05:01,083
There he accelerated.
580
01:05:01,625 --> 01:05:02,833
Sin.
581
01:05:08,666 --> 01:05:09,500
Next.
582
01:05:11,833 --> 01:05:13,000
Next!
583
01:05:13,083 --> 01:05:14,458
It's your turn, friend.
584
01:05:15,250 --> 01:05:16,416
Thank you.
585
01:05:21,541 --> 01:05:23,875
- What have you prepared?
- Dvořák.
586
01:05:26,791 --> 01:05:28,208
Next!
587
01:05:34,250 --> 01:05:36,375
Let's move directly to the free program.
588
01:05:36,458 --> 01:05:39,458
- Name and occupation, please!
- Sergiu Celibidache.
589
01:05:39,541 --> 01:05:41,833
Composition and conducting student
590
01:05:41,916 --> 01:05:43,958
at the Berlin Conservatory of Music.
591
01:05:44,666 --> 01:05:47,833
- Where are you from, Mr. Celibad...
- Celibidache.
592
01:05:48,541 --> 01:05:49,916
I'm Romanian, sir.
593
01:05:52,416 --> 01:05:55,166
Thank you. What work did you choose?
594
01:05:55,875 --> 01:05:57,875
- I didn't choose anything, sir.
- Louder!
595
01:05:57,958 --> 01:06:01,666
- We can't hear it from here.
- I didn't choose a particular work.
596
01:06:03,583 --> 01:06:05,583
Can we know why?
597
01:06:05,666 --> 01:06:09,166
I would prefer to direct something of your choosing.
A work you desire.
598
01:06:10,750 --> 01:06:13,083
- How kind of you...
- Yes, sir.
599
01:06:13,166 --> 01:06:15,916
I guess by now
you must have gotten tired of Dvořák.
600
01:06:18,583 --> 01:06:20,166
Please choose.
601
01:06:20,250 --> 01:06:22,875
I have some familiarity
with the entire repertoire.
602
01:06:24,375 --> 01:06:26,291
Is this a joke by any chance?
603
01:06:26,375 --> 01:06:30,208
- Anything?
- What an arrogant asshole!
604
01:06:30,958 --> 01:06:31,875
Don't worry,
605
01:06:31,958 --> 01:06:34,791
we will give to this unfortunate man
a lesson in humility.
606
01:06:36,125 --> 01:06:38,625
How about some Stravinsky?
607
01:06:38,708 --> 01:06:41,666
- This will lower his crest.
- Great idea!
608
01:06:41,750 --> 01:06:44,333
Russian repertoire. Brilliant, Victor!
609
01:06:45,083 --> 01:06:46,333
Very good.
610
01:06:46,416 --> 01:06:48,625
How about trying The Firebird?
611
01:06:48,708 --> 01:06:50,083
Stravinsky!
612
01:06:52,125 --> 01:06:53,291
Excellent choice, sir.
613
01:06:54,791 --> 01:06:56,916
The orchestra is yours, Maestro!
614
01:07:01,291 --> 01:07:02,708
Thank you. There won't be any need.
615
01:07:03,333 --> 01:07:04,791
But is this guy serious?
616
01:07:14,250 --> 01:07:16,750
- Good morning, ladies and gentlemen!
- Good morning!
617
01:07:41,458 --> 01:07:42,958
It's too much. Too.
618
01:07:44,125 --> 01:07:45,625
Too strong.
619
01:07:48,791 --> 01:07:50,583
Come in too hard at first.
620
01:07:50,666 --> 01:07:53,041
You have to appear out of nowhere
in this piece!
621
01:07:53,125 --> 01:07:56,458
This is how tension is built.
From afar, yes?
622
01:07:57,583 --> 01:07:58,791
Let yourself be guided by the interval.
623
01:07:58,875 --> 01:08:02,458
This piece is a lesson in how to avoid
that the fifth destabilizes us.
624
01:08:02,541 --> 01:08:03,791
It's...
625
01:08:03,875 --> 01:08:04,708
threatening.
626
01:08:06,625 --> 01:08:07,625
One more time, please.
627
01:08:15,708 --> 01:08:16,916
Stay there.
628
01:08:18,291 --> 01:08:19,333
Very good.
629
01:08:21,500 --> 01:08:23,291
Yes, let that sink in.
630
01:08:34,291 --> 01:08:35,875
The violas pianissimo!
631
01:08:36,750 --> 01:08:38,791
The bird is sleeping, don't wake him up!
632
01:08:44,083 --> 01:08:46,541
The threat grows. It creeps in.
633
01:08:47,208 --> 01:08:48,375
It's dangerous.
634
01:08:52,500 --> 01:08:54,500
Give him what he asks for, please!
635
01:08:55,125 --> 01:08:56,500
Don't wake the bird!
636
01:08:59,000 --> 01:08:59,833
Marvelous.
637
01:09:01,583 --> 01:09:03,125
What a clown!
638
01:09:03,625 --> 01:09:06,416
"Don't wake the bird..." Seriously?
639
01:09:08,125 --> 01:09:11,416
- One more word and you're fired!
- The bird wakes up!
640
01:11:18,708 --> 01:11:20,541
- Good morning!
- Good morning!
641
01:11:23,375 --> 01:11:24,375
Thank you.
642
01:11:41,125 --> 01:11:45,000
{\an8}BERLIN IS REBORN FROM THE ASHES
UNDER THE WAND OF A ROMANIAN WHO CAUSES A SENSATION
643
01:11:54,083 --> 01:11:55,750
"Dear Sonia,
644
01:11:55,833 --> 01:11:58,166
I hope my letter finds you well.
645
01:11:58,791 --> 01:12:01,041
I can't believe it
about what happened to me here.
646
01:12:01,625 --> 01:12:05,708
Even though I don't have much time to compose,
at least I make music!
647
01:12:07,000 --> 01:12:09,416
I bought a few bags of coffee
by the Americans.
648
01:12:09,500 --> 01:12:11,083
You should receive them soon.
649
01:12:12,416 --> 01:12:14,916
Please tell me
how are mum and dad.
650
01:12:15,583 --> 01:12:18,083
With much love, Sergiu."
651
01:12:36,541 --> 01:12:37,833
"Dear Ortancia,
652
01:12:37,916 --> 01:12:40,791
This gift is the only way
where I can thank you
653
01:12:40,875 --> 01:12:44,250
for everything you did for that young man
found on a park bench.
654
01:12:44,333 --> 01:12:45,916
Until our next meeting, Sergiu".
655
01:13:38,625 --> 01:13:43,166
- Bruckner's Seventh Symphony?
- Yes, Philadelphia '89.
656
01:13:44,833 --> 01:13:48,750
What you did to your father
with that pirated CD...
657
01:13:48,833 --> 01:13:50,708
Come on, mom!
658
01:13:50,791 --> 01:13:52,166
You deceived him.
659
01:13:53,750 --> 01:13:55,291
You went too far, Miki.
660
01:13:56,541 --> 01:14:00,083
You humiliated him.
And your words were harsh.
661
01:14:01,333 --> 01:14:04,500
Maybe then he will understand
which doesn't solve anything.
662
01:14:04,583 --> 01:14:09,666
He doesn't try to solve anything!
It simply cannot be different.
663
01:14:11,208 --> 01:14:14,333
Everything we can do
is to be close to him.
664
01:14:14,416 --> 01:14:16,125
You're wrong here, mom!
665
01:14:17,041 --> 01:14:19,208
Audio recordings like this
they are everywhere!
666
01:14:20,416 --> 01:14:24,125
It happens...
whether he likes it or not.
667
01:14:24,208 --> 01:14:26,958
Might as well try
to catch lightning.
668
01:14:28,541 --> 01:14:30,000
I don't care about money!
669
01:14:30,083 --> 01:14:33,708
He can give them to whoever he wants.
Just don't give them to pirates.
670
01:14:36,333 --> 01:14:38,541
You know what's worse
in this whole story?
671
01:14:38,625 --> 01:14:39,875
Tell me!
672
01:14:39,958 --> 01:14:44,208
Even the worst,
the worst sounding recordings...
673
01:14:46,791 --> 01:14:48,333
they are treasures for me.
674
01:14:50,291 --> 01:14:55,791
I wasn't there in Boston, Philadelphia,
London, New York or Stockholm!
675
01:14:55,875 --> 01:14:57,500
How many did I miss while at school?
676
01:15:00,541 --> 01:15:02,250
I know it's not the same thing, but...
677
01:15:03,458 --> 01:15:04,583
for me, it's everything!
678
01:15:05,416 --> 01:15:07,125
This is all I have.
679
01:15:09,041 --> 01:15:11,166
And that's all I'll have
when he is no longer here.
680
01:15:13,791 --> 01:15:16,791
But I will still be a traitor
because I know he condemned it.
681
01:15:26,125 --> 01:15:28,583
{\an8}LONDON, ENGLAND
682
01:16:00,791 --> 01:16:01,625
No.
683
01:16:02,125 --> 01:16:03,375
No...
684
01:16:07,541 --> 01:16:09,625
It's still not good. It's like the others!
685
01:16:09,708 --> 01:16:12,416
- Master, we have already discussed this.
- Rewind.
686
01:16:17,750 --> 01:16:18,583
Listen!
687
01:16:22,458 --> 01:16:23,375
Can you hear?
688
01:16:33,083 --> 01:16:36,250
Bows have no impact! They slow down
instead of increasing tension.
689
01:16:37,416 --> 01:16:40,750
There is no consistency, no depth,
there isn't a shred of lyricism.
690
01:16:40,833 --> 01:16:43,666
- Sergiu, are we too slow?
- No...
691
01:16:43,750 --> 01:16:47,333
No, please! Your work, of all of you,
it is truly divine. It's a question of...
692
01:16:48,500 --> 01:16:51,500
General time. It seems too slow.
693
01:16:51,583 --> 01:16:55,250
- Master, that's exactly how you directed it.
- I'm sure it is so.
694
01:16:55,333 --> 01:16:56,958
But that's not what I heard in the room.
695
01:16:57,041 --> 01:17:00,583
All the wealth is gone,
so the overall time seems wrong.
696
01:17:00,666 --> 01:17:02,083
It's not good, it's too slow!
697
01:17:02,875 --> 01:17:06,500
We didn't change the speed,
otherwise the intonation would have been affected.
698
01:17:06,583 --> 01:17:09,291
I understand, but it's not
what I heard in the room.
699
01:17:09,375 --> 01:17:11,125
It will never be like in the room.
700
01:17:12,583 --> 01:17:13,416
Listen,
701
01:17:15,291 --> 01:17:17,625
We're going around in circles here.
702
01:17:18,166 --> 01:17:19,708
What does he propose?
703
01:17:20,375 --> 01:17:21,750
Let them come back!
704
01:17:23,291 --> 01:17:25,791
- How, excuse me?
- Call them back! The orchestra.
705
01:17:25,875 --> 01:17:28,000
We've already done two more days.
706
01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:30,125
We are over budget!
707
01:17:31,416 --> 01:17:32,375
I am very sorry.
708
01:17:33,875 --> 01:17:35,958
Production has already started,
709
01:17:36,041 --> 01:17:41,500
and the record will come out
as per contract.
710
01:17:44,083 --> 01:17:45,333
What did I do?!
711
01:17:49,416 --> 01:17:52,333
Believe me... it's gorgeous!
712
01:17:52,416 --> 01:17:54,333
Beauty is not the goal!
713
01:17:56,208 --> 01:17:58,375
It will make you a fortune.
714
01:17:59,083 --> 01:18:02,375
And... with all due respect, Master,
715
01:18:02,958 --> 01:18:04,875
most don't notice the difference.
716
01:18:06,708 --> 01:18:07,916
Exact.
717
01:18:09,833 --> 01:18:12,250
None of you
feel any difference!
718
01:18:16,375 --> 01:18:19,333
They're all crazy, sure, but...
719
01:18:20,166 --> 01:18:23,250
this is crazier
than all the others put together.
720
01:18:43,458 --> 01:18:47,125
You listened
the child prodigy Sergiu Celibidache,
721
01:18:47,208 --> 01:18:52,625
conduct the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra
from the Titania Palast.
722
01:19:02,666 --> 01:19:04,000
Well done, Master!
723
01:19:04,083 --> 01:19:05,541
Wonderful ending, Sergiu!
724
01:19:05,625 --> 01:19:07,208
That was shit, professor.
725
01:19:07,958 --> 01:19:09,958
- The second violins came in late again!
- What?
726
01:19:10,041 --> 01:19:13,250
In the second movement, Christoph and Helmut!
They can't keep up.
727
01:19:13,333 --> 01:19:15,875
- The French horn one is useless!
- Calm down, Sergiu!
728
01:19:15,958 --> 01:19:18,750
It is the quota imposed.
It's the restructuring plan.
729
01:19:18,833 --> 01:19:21,166
This orchestra can become a jewel.
730
01:19:21,250 --> 01:19:23,208
But if the selection will continue
to be political,
731
01:19:23,291 --> 01:19:26,166
the Berlin Philharmonic will play
like a village band!
732
01:19:26,250 --> 01:19:28,458
- This is scandalous!
- It's my honest opinion.
733
01:19:28,541 --> 01:19:31,041
You hired me to make music.
That's what I try to do.
734
01:19:43,958 --> 01:19:45,958
- Thank you!
- What is his secret?
735
01:19:46,833 --> 01:19:49,833
How does it produce so much energy,
but also a lot of emotion?
736
01:19:49,916 --> 01:19:52,875
I didn't do anything.
Dvořák did all the work.
737
01:19:52,958 --> 01:19:54,958
I just let it evolve on its own.
738
01:19:56,125 --> 01:19:58,708
- Don't tell anyone!
- I won't say it unless you say it.
739
01:20:03,875 --> 01:20:05,208
Celibidache!
740
01:20:05,708 --> 01:20:06,708
Mr. Mayor!
741
01:20:06,791 --> 01:20:10,875
So beautiful and exciting!
742
01:20:11,958 --> 01:20:16,500
Our destroyed Berlin is in need
of hope in these difficult times.
743
01:20:16,583 --> 01:20:17,666
Artists like you.
744
01:20:18,291 --> 01:20:22,208
His music belongs to the people and,
of course, to records.
745
01:20:22,291 --> 01:20:26,750
Allow me to introduce them
Professor Doctor Piendl,
746
01:20:26,833 --> 01:20:28,666
the new director
by Deutsche Grammophon.
747
01:20:29,333 --> 01:20:31,875
It is a great pleasure to meet you
finally.
748
01:20:31,958 --> 01:20:33,500
Brilliant!
749
01:20:33,583 --> 01:20:35,500
I wish we had recorded it.
750
01:20:35,583 --> 01:20:37,958
Well, there were some… mistakes
tonight.
751
01:20:38,041 --> 01:20:43,416
Hence the beauty of being able to erase
every little imperfection in the recording.
752
01:20:43,500 --> 01:20:45,750
And achieve perfection.
753
01:20:45,833 --> 01:20:46,750
Yes, maybe.
754
01:20:46,833 --> 01:20:50,916
Master, I can't wait to show you around
of the Deutsche Grammophon studios.
755
01:20:51,000 --> 01:20:52,083
Without equal.
756
01:20:52,166 --> 01:20:54,041
There is no comparison with London.
757
01:20:54,125 --> 01:20:55,625
I guarantee it personally.
758
01:20:55,708 --> 01:20:57,708
I can't wait.
759
01:20:57,791 --> 01:21:00,000
- I'll call her.
- Yes, good evening!
760
01:21:00,083 --> 01:21:01,166
Sergiu!
761
01:21:01,250 --> 01:21:03,541
Master Furtwängler,
can we talk later?
762
01:21:03,625 --> 01:21:07,333
You're sabotaging your career, young man!
This orchestra is the best in the world.
763
01:21:07,416 --> 01:21:09,916
If I could direct it,
you can do it too.
764
01:21:10,000 --> 01:21:11,958
Learn to compromise!
765
01:21:12,041 --> 01:21:14,166
Otherwise, your days here are numbered.
766
01:21:14,250 --> 01:21:16,333
Sergiu!
767
01:21:19,291 --> 01:21:22,166
I want to introduce you to a dear friend,
768
01:21:23,791 --> 01:21:25,458
Martin Steinke.
769
01:21:25,541 --> 01:21:28,666
- Nice to meet you, Sergiu!
- Likewise.
770
01:21:29,458 --> 01:21:34,375
Martin's help was essential
to be able to hear the silences between the notes.
771
01:21:36,166 --> 01:21:38,583
It changed my life.
And I'm not even Buddhist!
772
01:21:38,666 --> 01:21:41,250
- I understand.
- The professor exaggerates, as usual.
773
01:21:41,333 --> 01:21:44,166
But it is true that, sometimes,
there is too much noise.
774
01:21:45,000 --> 01:21:47,333
It can make it difficult
simply listening.
775
01:21:50,708 --> 01:21:53,166
You two have a lot in common.
776
01:21:59,458 --> 01:22:01,375
Maybe we should meet again.
777
01:22:01,875 --> 01:22:03,500
Yes, I would be happy to.
778
01:22:06,583 --> 01:22:08,833
Goodnight, Mr. Steinke.
779
01:22:13,583 --> 01:22:15,125
"My dear Ginel,
780
01:22:15,208 --> 01:22:18,000
you didn't reply to my last letter.
781
01:22:18,083 --> 01:22:20,750
I ordered the leather jacket
that I promised you.
782
01:22:21,333 --> 01:22:23,666
It should arrive
in the next few weeks.
783
01:22:23,750 --> 01:22:25,708
It's so hot, you'll love it!
784
01:22:25,791 --> 01:22:29,416
I hear a lot about the difficulties
that you struggle with at home.
785
01:22:30,958 --> 01:22:32,833
Freedom is precious.
786
01:22:40,500 --> 01:22:43,625
I will continue to send you chocolate,
coffee and sweaters,
787
01:22:43,708 --> 01:22:46,458
because the thought of my loved ones
there is a lack of food and warmth
788
01:22:46,541 --> 01:22:47,666
it's unbearable.
789
01:22:48,208 --> 01:22:51,166
Even if you only get a quarter of it,
I'm happy.
790
01:22:59,708 --> 01:23:04,583
I miss the smell of our meadows
sunny and thatched roofs.
791
01:23:05,791 --> 01:23:07,750
Warmest wishes to Golda.
792
01:23:08,333 --> 01:23:10,708
Take care of yourselves, Sergiu."
793
01:23:13,000 --> 01:23:15,625
We have an amazing ensemble,
but the truth is
794
01:23:15,708 --> 01:23:17,708
that the administration
opposes changes.
795
01:23:17,791 --> 01:23:18,625
Sergiu...
796
01:23:18,708 --> 01:23:22,958
Also, they want me to record the whole thing
Beethoven's symphonic repertoire.
797
01:23:23,500 --> 01:23:25,625
- Sergiu!
- Yes.
798
01:23:26,458 --> 01:23:28,541
I'm asking you how you are.
799
01:23:29,208 --> 01:23:30,791
That's what I'm trying to tell you!
800
01:23:34,833 --> 01:23:37,041
What are you holding on to, Sergiu?
801
01:23:41,000 --> 01:23:44,750
Your bitterness, your sadness,
802
01:23:45,375 --> 01:23:46,208
your anger...
803
01:23:48,083 --> 01:23:51,208
They are all noises in your mind.
They don't mean anything.
804
01:23:53,125 --> 01:23:55,500
Free your heart, Sergiu!
805
01:23:58,291 --> 01:23:59,958
That's what I do when I make music.
806
01:24:01,750 --> 01:24:04,291
And what happens after the final agreement?
807
01:24:08,916 --> 01:24:12,458
Because the artist is the man
do they have to be two different people?
808
01:24:13,833 --> 01:24:17,291
Don't stop listening
after the music stops, Sergiu!
809
01:24:20,541 --> 01:24:22,416
Listen to the silences!
810
01:24:32,041 --> 01:24:34,916
- You're not serious!
- I've made this mistake before.
811
01:24:35,000 --> 01:24:35,833
It was terrible!
812
01:24:35,916 --> 01:24:37,541
Deutsche Grammophon is unique.
813
01:24:37,625 --> 01:24:41,125
And you can't compare the London Orchestra
with the Berlin Philharmonic!
814
01:24:41,208 --> 01:24:42,708
It's not about the orchestra.
815
01:24:44,208 --> 01:24:47,958
My duty is to make music.
Do not destroy it with recordings.
816
01:24:48,041 --> 01:24:50,916
Celibidache, you were a nobody
when did you get here!
817
01:24:51,000 --> 01:24:53,333
- I made you a star!
- I try to make music.
818
01:24:53,416 --> 01:24:55,666
And I'm trying to run a business!
819
01:24:56,791 --> 01:24:58,708
We are the Mecca of classical music
820
01:24:58,791 --> 01:25:00,666
and we have to sell records!
821
01:25:00,750 --> 01:25:01,833
So I heard.
822
01:25:02,791 --> 01:25:06,583
I hate to point this out,
but I decide who comes and who goes.
823
01:25:08,500 --> 01:25:10,916
Then you would do better
to find you another puppet!
824
01:25:14,625 --> 01:25:16,333
Mr. Celibidache...
825
01:25:16,958 --> 01:25:17,791
we're done with her!
826
01:25:18,875 --> 01:25:20,208
It's finished!
827
01:25:20,291 --> 01:25:23,625
He headed to Berlin for the last time.
828
01:25:51,208 --> 01:25:54,708
Dear Golda, it's over with Berlin.
829
01:25:55,791 --> 01:25:58,250
I was as conciliatory as possible,
830
01:25:58,333 --> 01:26:02,125
but I won't give in on
conditions necessary for making music.
831
01:26:03,208 --> 01:26:06,291
In an attempt to silence
the noises in my mind
832
01:26:06,375 --> 01:26:10,291
I just accepted the invitation
to conduct in South America.
833
01:26:11,125 --> 01:26:13,708
I will follow the music wherever it leads me,
834
01:26:13,791 --> 01:26:17,500
in the hope of turning the light back on
proved so elusive in Berlin.
835
01:26:18,333 --> 01:26:21,333
I love you so much, Sergiu.
836
01:27:24,875 --> 01:27:28,708
You created the problem, solve it!
You only had one task!
837
01:27:28,791 --> 01:27:31,875
And I have a job to do too,
be on stage in 30 minutes.
838
01:27:31,958 --> 01:27:32,833
Under control.
839
01:27:32,916 --> 01:27:34,500
- Under control?!
- Yes.
840
01:27:36,416 --> 01:27:38,833
Maybe I should go on stage
dressed like this, Alberto.
841
01:27:38,916 --> 01:27:39,750
Undress!
842
01:27:40,458 --> 01:27:41,625
As?
843
01:27:41,708 --> 01:27:42,625
Your pants.
844
01:27:42,708 --> 01:27:45,375
Incredible!
How can you lose two dresses?!
845
01:27:45,458 --> 01:27:46,500
Two!
846
01:27:47,583 --> 01:27:49,083
Both tailcoats, gone!
847
01:27:49,958 --> 01:27:52,875
- Everything is fine.
- Everything is fine? Seriously?!
848
01:27:52,958 --> 01:27:54,625
We'll find another one.
849
01:27:55,166 --> 01:27:58,750
- Faster. What size shoes do you wear?
- 46.
850
01:27:59,916 --> 01:28:02,083
- Nothing suits me!
- Maybe these?
851
01:28:04,291 --> 01:28:05,125
Everything OK?
852
01:29:05,041 --> 01:29:05,875
You!
853
01:29:06,458 --> 01:29:07,875
Out!
854
01:29:11,708 --> 01:29:13,416
Do you want to go on stage?
855
01:29:13,500 --> 01:29:14,458
Come on!
856
01:29:14,541 --> 01:29:15,541
Yes?
857
01:29:17,625 --> 01:29:18,916
Do you want to go on stage?
858
01:29:21,500 --> 01:29:22,750
Throw him out!
859
01:29:31,291 --> 01:29:32,291
Three, please!
860
01:31:09,833 --> 01:31:12,916
And who should I trust? Of myself?
861
01:31:13,000 --> 01:31:19,166
I would need another life to become
the composer I would like to be.
862
01:31:19,250 --> 01:31:22,250
Trust my students?
Who try,
863
01:31:22,333 --> 01:31:26,041
but they make very little progress,
if they ever do.
864
01:31:26,125 --> 01:31:27,458
Trust Miki?
865
01:31:27,541 --> 01:31:30,666
Which I sincerely believe
866
01:31:30,750 --> 01:31:35,000
have no idea what it is
the real stakes.
867
01:31:35,083 --> 01:31:37,416
So, who should I trust?
868
01:31:40,458 --> 01:31:45,041
Because you can never talk about
wonderful things you have accomplished?
869
01:31:46,541 --> 01:31:47,750
Bitsi...
870
01:31:50,166 --> 01:31:53,375
Miki considers you the most wonderful man
who ever lived.
871
01:31:54,500 --> 01:31:55,750
And I think so too.
872
01:31:57,250 --> 01:32:00,666
If only I could see you
through our eyes, instead of...
873
01:32:00,750 --> 01:32:02,458
My father's?
874
01:32:02,541 --> 01:32:05,541
No, I didn't mean that.
875
01:32:08,666 --> 01:32:10,333
But maybe it's the same thing.
876
01:32:12,416 --> 01:32:14,916
I'm nothing like my father.
877
01:32:17,833 --> 01:32:21,500
Inflexible intransigence?
878
01:32:23,333 --> 01:32:25,666
The apple never falls
away from the tree.
879
01:36:40,250 --> 01:36:42,875
Absolutely superb!
880
01:36:45,875 --> 01:36:47,708
Don't worry, I don't bite!
881
01:36:47,791 --> 01:36:51,250
It was perhaps the most memorable concert
of my life.
882
01:36:51,333 --> 01:36:53,458
I'm just exhausted!
883
01:36:54,625 --> 01:36:56,958
I had heard this orchestra before.
What did you do to him?
884
01:36:59,208 --> 01:37:00,791
And you would be...?
885
01:37:02,291 --> 01:37:04,250
I went to La Scala in Milan,
886
01:37:04,750 --> 01:37:08,333
I heard Toscanini in America,
but something like that...
887
01:37:10,208 --> 01:37:11,166
I'm Ioana.
888
01:37:12,166 --> 01:37:14,416
Ioana Procopie Dumitrescu.
889
01:37:15,125 --> 01:37:16,458
Pleasure!
890
01:37:17,541 --> 01:37:19,041
It's a pleasure to meet you...
891
01:37:19,125 --> 01:37:19,958
Again!
892
01:37:22,083 --> 01:37:23,333
Do you mean to tell me you don't remember?
893
01:37:24,875 --> 01:37:27,166
I've changed a lot, I admit it.
894
01:37:27,791 --> 01:37:30,083
You, a little less.
895
01:37:33,250 --> 01:37:36,041
Do you remember when you played the piano,
in Bucharest,
896
01:37:36,125 --> 01:37:38,041
to a dance class for girls?
897
01:37:42,416 --> 01:37:43,250
No!
898
01:37:44,000 --> 01:37:46,166
- Yes, I was the clumsy one.
- No!
899
01:37:48,291 --> 01:37:51,166
When I heard you were running right here,
in Buenos Aires.
900
01:37:51,250 --> 01:37:52,333
And Debussy too!
901
01:37:53,708 --> 01:37:55,583
Do you know who is my favorite composer?
902
01:37:56,541 --> 01:38:00,791
Your version was, without exaggeration,
903
01:38:01,500 --> 01:38:02,958
from another world!
904
01:38:10,500 --> 01:38:13,958
I know! You are so talented.
And so modest!
905
01:38:14,916 --> 01:38:19,541
We... actually,
we didn't play Debussy tonight.
906
01:38:19,625 --> 01:38:23,250
Of course not!
You played the music of the angels.
907
01:38:23,875 --> 01:38:26,750
The only thing that matters
is that you were wonderful.
908
01:38:31,375 --> 01:38:33,833
Do you want to have dinner together?
909
01:38:33,916 --> 01:38:35,083
This evening?
910
01:38:36,958 --> 01:38:39,541
I'm afraid I can't do that.
My husband is waiting for me.
911
01:38:41,791 --> 01:38:44,000
- Towards the weekend.
- I am sorry.
912
01:38:44,083 --> 01:38:45,041
I am leaving tomorrow.
913
01:38:49,458 --> 01:38:52,666
In that case, my husband will have to
wait a little longer, right?
914
01:38:56,916 --> 01:39:00,333
I had the feeling that the armistice
of Moscow was a pretext.
915
01:39:00,416 --> 01:39:02,041
And you left, just like that, on the spot?
916
01:39:02,958 --> 01:39:05,291
No, I told my sister, Suzanna.
917
01:39:05,875 --> 01:39:07,416
But she scolded me, as usual.
918
01:39:12,666 --> 01:39:13,500
And yours?
919
01:39:14,708 --> 01:39:17,791
Dad had important business in Romania.
920
01:39:17,875 --> 01:39:20,500
- He would never have left.
- And what happened?
921
01:39:22,291 --> 01:39:23,916
The Soviets took everything away from him.
922
01:39:25,916 --> 01:39:30,083
He opposed the regime, so they sent him
to forced labor for six months.
923
01:39:31,083 --> 01:39:34,083
Now he lives in a small apartment
in Bucharest.
924
01:39:34,166 --> 01:39:35,291
With his cats.
925
01:39:37,541 --> 01:39:39,041
I'm so sorry.
926
01:39:40,666 --> 01:39:43,166
I send him the medicines
whenever he needs it.
927
01:39:44,125 --> 01:39:46,375
Mom writes to me every now and then.
928
01:39:46,458 --> 01:39:48,208
But you have to be careful what you write.
929
01:39:49,041 --> 01:39:52,416
All mail
is controlled by the Securitate.
930
01:39:52,500 --> 01:39:56,125
If you say the wrong thing, you receive
a visit at dawn and a good bit of beating.
931
01:39:56,208 --> 01:39:57,458
Is it really that serious?
932
01:40:01,875 --> 01:40:04,625
I left my family too.
933
01:40:05,750 --> 01:40:07,500
Sometimes we write to each other.
934
01:40:08,333 --> 01:40:12,458
I guess my sister, Sonia, spares me
the details so I don't worry.
935
01:40:16,958 --> 01:40:18,500
Can I show you something?
936
01:40:30,875 --> 01:40:32,375
It's not finished yet.
937
01:40:37,500 --> 01:40:39,083
How much light!
938
01:40:40,875 --> 01:40:42,958
How much strength! So much...
939
01:40:44,291 --> 01:40:45,291
optimism!
940
01:40:48,041 --> 01:40:49,708
Yet, so ephemeral!
941
01:40:52,083 --> 01:40:54,000
In a few days, they will paint over it.
942
01:40:55,833 --> 01:40:58,916
Anyway, I sent it out into the Universe.
943
01:41:00,250 --> 01:41:01,958
For what little matters.
944
01:41:03,833 --> 01:41:05,000
And you saw it.
945
01:41:45,208 --> 01:41:46,583
Can I stay with you, dad?
946
01:41:56,291 --> 01:42:01,250
Dear Sergiu, thank you so much
for food and warm clothes.
947
01:42:01,333 --> 01:42:04,166
However, the Securitate
he suspects us of engaging in a black market
948
01:42:04,250 --> 01:42:07,875
and two officers parked in front of the house,
staying there for several nights in a row.
949
01:42:08,500 --> 01:42:13,333
Mom is quite worried,
but your news lifts our spirits.
950
01:42:13,916 --> 01:42:16,833
I know you care about us,
but don't try to come back.
951
01:42:18,541 --> 01:42:20,666
They wouldn't let you leave again.
952
01:42:26,708 --> 01:42:28,041
What a wonderful day!
953
01:42:28,916 --> 01:42:30,583
We should go to the park, dad.
954
01:42:32,250 --> 01:42:33,125
To get some air!
955
01:42:35,458 --> 01:42:37,541
The only thing they can't confiscate.
956
01:42:37,625 --> 01:42:39,708
Come on, dad!
957
01:42:43,625 --> 01:42:45,750
Those bastards took everything from me.
958
01:42:47,666 --> 01:42:49,208
Even the family.
959
01:42:53,166 --> 01:42:54,958
They didn't chase him away.
960
01:42:57,208 --> 01:42:58,375
It was you.
961
01:43:03,041 --> 01:43:04,541
I am writing to Sergiu.
962
01:43:04,625 --> 01:43:06,750
Do you want to tell him something?
963
01:43:20,958 --> 01:43:23,083
Dad sends you his regards.
964
01:43:26,875 --> 01:43:29,166
{\an8}TURIN, ITALY
965
01:43:30,000 --> 01:43:32,458
Good morning
to our illustrious guest.
966
01:43:32,541 --> 01:43:34,416
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
967
01:43:35,000 --> 01:43:39,875
On behalf of all my colleagues in the press,
I welcome you to Italy, Maestro!
968
01:43:39,958 --> 01:43:42,083
It's a pleasure to have you back in Europe.
969
01:43:42,166 --> 01:43:43,625
- We missed him!
- Thank you.
970
01:43:44,958 --> 01:43:46,125
I missed you too.
971
01:43:47,291 --> 01:43:50,083
Why Italy, Maestro?
Why the RAI Orchestra?
972
01:43:50,166 --> 01:43:52,666
Spaghetti, Chianti, football!
973
01:43:54,250 --> 01:43:56,041
But why RAI?
974
01:43:56,125 --> 01:43:59,958
They offered me the necessary conditions
to make music.
975
01:44:00,041 --> 01:44:02,416
- Do you mean the ten tests per program?
- Yes.
976
01:44:02,500 --> 01:44:05,708
We are builders, a cathedral
it can't be done in two days.
977
01:44:05,791 --> 01:44:06,625
Master,
978
01:44:07,500 --> 01:44:12,541
recording technology did
a huge leap forward in the last two years.
979
01:44:12,625 --> 01:44:14,500
- You might reconsider...
- No!
980
01:44:14,583 --> 01:44:17,583
Music cannot be compressed
in a pancake.
981
01:44:18,125 --> 01:44:21,125
But his concerts here
will be registered.
982
01:44:21,208 --> 01:44:23,875
Broadcast live...
it's something else entirely!
983
01:44:25,041 --> 01:44:28,083
A singular moment in time.
Which disappears forever.
984
01:44:28,166 --> 01:44:29,125
It's ephemeral.
985
01:44:29,208 --> 01:44:31,416
No, a recording is one-dimensional.
986
01:44:31,500 --> 01:44:34,333
Listen endlessly
recording a concert
987
01:44:34,416 --> 01:44:37,750
it's like making love
with a photograph of Marilyn Monroe!
988
01:44:39,041 --> 01:44:42,666
Karajan, with the Philharmonic orchestra
from Berlin, is at the top of the charts.
989
01:44:42,750 --> 01:44:44,041
It is famous all over the world.
990
01:44:44,625 --> 01:44:46,250
Even Coca-Cola.
991
01:44:47,958 --> 01:44:50,875
Because it's so caustic
towards other conductors?
992
01:44:50,958 --> 01:44:51,791
I'm just being honest.
993
01:44:53,375 --> 01:44:56,250
Many of them are below expectations.
Very scarce indeed.
994
01:44:57,125 --> 01:44:59,333
- Could you give us some names?
- No.
995
01:44:59,416 --> 01:45:01,458
Tomorrow you would only write about this.
996
01:45:01,541 --> 01:45:04,458
But believe me, I judge myself too
with the same standards.
997
01:45:04,541 --> 01:45:07,625
- But you consider yourself superior to others.
- No, not at all.
998
01:45:10,625 --> 01:45:12,500
I can't settle
than "good enough".
999
01:45:21,833 --> 01:45:23,208
No!
1000
01:45:23,291 --> 01:45:27,583
It's like that... It's still mechanical.
1001
01:45:27,666 --> 01:45:29,291
Play like you're not here.
1002
01:45:30,916 --> 01:45:33,833
Look... You think you know
as the trumpets will sound. But you don't know it.
1003
01:45:33,916 --> 01:45:36,875
I don't know either.
This is the principle of phenomenology.
1004
01:45:36,958 --> 01:45:40,250
He plays, I listen
and I react to the way it sounds.
1005
01:45:40,333 --> 01:45:41,250
And so do you.
1006
01:45:44,416 --> 01:45:46,208
Every time, it's a new beginning.
1007
01:45:48,000 --> 01:45:50,250
You remember how you played
the last time the piece?
1008
01:45:51,583 --> 01:45:52,750
Erase that memory.
1009
01:45:52,833 --> 01:45:55,458
You can't step on fresh snow
more than once.
1010
01:45:55,541 --> 01:45:56,708
Be the fresh snow!
1011
01:45:57,791 --> 01:45:59,000
Again, please.
1012
01:46:11,708 --> 01:46:14,375
You thought I would enchant you
all of Italy without me?
1013
01:46:20,541 --> 01:46:22,208
Can I ask you a question?
1014
01:46:23,375 --> 01:46:24,625
Oh, my God!
1015
01:46:27,750 --> 01:46:30,041
There never was any husband,
right?
1016
01:46:30,833 --> 01:46:32,333
There was...
1017
01:46:32,416 --> 01:46:33,833
Of course there was!
1018
01:46:34,708 --> 01:46:36,166
I left him.
1019
01:46:37,083 --> 01:46:40,208
I told him I met
the most interesting man on the planet.
1020
01:46:43,166 --> 01:46:44,916
Why do you think it's you?
1021
01:46:47,083 --> 01:46:49,125
The divorce papers
They're on his desk.
1022
01:46:49,833 --> 01:46:51,916
What can I do? I fell in love!
1023
01:46:53,041 --> 01:46:53,875
Really?
1024
01:46:54,875 --> 01:46:55,708
Absolutely!
1025
01:46:56,791 --> 01:46:59,041
Can I ask you who is the lucky one?
1026
01:47:00,791 --> 01:47:02,583
This would mean revealing secrets.
1027
01:47:06,250 --> 01:47:07,083
Are you sure?
1028
01:47:11,166 --> 01:47:13,000
I think so.
1029
01:47:15,666 --> 01:47:17,208
How confident are you?
1030
01:47:19,208 --> 01:47:20,250
Pretty sure.
1031
01:47:21,500 --> 01:47:22,833
Sure enough?
1032
01:47:40,000 --> 01:47:42,791
{\an8}VENICE, ITALY
1033
01:48:46,791 --> 01:48:51,041
Om mani padme hum.
1034
01:48:57,291 --> 01:48:58,416
"Dear Ginel,
1035
01:48:59,291 --> 01:49:01,750
the light that, as I had told Golda,
I was looking for
1036
01:49:01,833 --> 01:49:05,000
Apparently it wasn't a place,
but a person.
1037
01:49:06,416 --> 01:49:07,666
Her name is Ioana.
1038
01:49:08,291 --> 01:49:12,875
I have never encountered so much energy
positive in a single human being.
1039
01:49:16,000 --> 01:49:17,583
She is herself, without regrets
1040
01:49:17,666 --> 01:49:21,583
and it inspires me in a way that
I thought it was only possible with music.
1041
01:49:24,625 --> 01:49:27,958
My greatest wish
is that one day you can all meet her.
1042
01:49:29,083 --> 01:49:31,291
I think dad would agree too.
1043
01:49:33,541 --> 01:49:36,375
I love you, Sergiu."
1044
01:52:44,208 --> 01:52:47,750
I see you work hard. But I believe you
is hindering yourself.
1045
01:52:49,208 --> 01:52:51,958
{\an8}How can we help Enrique
to no longer get confused?
1046
01:52:52,041 --> 01:52:53,791
Does anyone know? Where do we start?
1047
01:52:54,958 --> 01:52:56,500
Where do we always start?
1048
01:53:02,291 --> 01:53:06,958
Giving up prejudices
and the expectations on this piece
1049
01:53:07,041 --> 01:53:10,708
and not listening to what's up here,
but what is right here.
1050
01:53:13,833 --> 01:53:17,291
Only then can you start
to make music, being present.
1051
01:53:18,333 --> 01:53:19,833
- Yes?
- Yes.
1052
01:53:20,500 --> 01:53:22,166
Speaking of "present",
1053
01:53:22,250 --> 01:53:24,291
it's time to thank you
for coming.
1054
01:53:24,375 --> 01:53:26,833
In the next few weeks
I will be on tour in Japan,
1055
01:53:26,916 --> 01:53:28,583
but I'll see you when I get back.
1056
01:53:47,291 --> 01:53:48,833
Excuse me, do you have any questions?
1057
01:53:50,875 --> 01:53:53,541
No, comrade. I don't have any questions.
1058
01:53:55,791 --> 01:53:59,833
No agents of the Romanian secret police
he is my "companion".
1059
01:53:59,916 --> 01:54:02,500
- He's a careful observer.
- She's too obvious.
1060
01:54:05,208 --> 01:54:08,041
I just wanted to see in the flesh
the new idol.
1061
01:54:11,375 --> 01:54:14,041
- He's made quite a name for himself.
- I'm just a musician.
1062
01:54:15,166 --> 01:54:18,458
Please, modesty doesn't suit you.
1063
01:54:20,458 --> 01:54:22,250
All of Bucharest talks about her.
1064
01:54:23,750 --> 01:54:26,250
In fact, the whole country is talking about it!
1065
01:54:28,083 --> 01:54:31,041
- Don't you miss your country?
- My country? It's not my country.
1066
01:54:33,250 --> 01:54:37,208
My country died the day
you have turned us into a satellite of Moscow.
1067
01:54:37,291 --> 01:54:39,708
- Some would say we freed you.
- Some...
1068
01:54:44,416 --> 01:54:46,125
Mr Celibidache,
1069
01:54:47,125 --> 01:54:49,291
Would you like to direct at home?
1070
01:54:51,250 --> 01:54:53,833
We sincerely wish
welcome her back to the country.
1071
01:54:54,416 --> 01:54:57,625
After all, his success
it's a fairy tale.
1072
01:54:59,541 --> 01:55:01,750
We know it has rigorous demands.
1073
01:55:01,833 --> 01:55:04,375
We can organize them
all the evidence you need
1074
01:55:04,458 --> 01:55:06,833
and, of course,
we will not record the concert.
1075
01:55:11,791 --> 01:55:12,666
At that time?
1076
01:55:28,500 --> 01:55:30,625
How can you even just take it
into consideration?!
1077
01:55:30,708 --> 01:55:31,791
That would be madness!
1078
01:55:31,875 --> 01:55:32,916
It's our country.
1079
01:55:34,291 --> 01:55:36,291
Maybe it's your country,
but mine isn't anymore.
1080
01:55:36,916 --> 01:55:38,541
We are still Romanians.
1081
01:55:39,333 --> 01:55:42,750
- They won't let you leave again.
- I have a refugee passport, Poufig.
1082
01:55:42,833 --> 01:55:43,791
Exact!
1083
01:55:44,416 --> 01:55:47,416
You are stateless.
Who would fight to get you out of there?
1084
01:55:48,708 --> 01:55:50,375
This is absurd, Bitsi!
1085
01:55:50,458 --> 01:55:51,500
We have a son!
1086
01:55:51,583 --> 01:55:54,291
- A son who doesn't know his origins!
- And thank goodness!
1087
01:55:57,625 --> 01:56:01,750
How can you think about directing
in a communist hell,
1088
01:56:01,833 --> 01:56:04,458
when the New York Philharmonic
Does he send you a blank check?
1089
01:56:04,541 --> 01:56:07,708
So I make music everywhere in the world,
except in my country...
1090
01:56:09,291 --> 01:56:11,875
Your country is where they are
your wife and your son!
1091
01:56:28,291 --> 01:56:30,916
{\an8}KYOTO, JAPAN
1092
01:56:35,166 --> 01:56:39,000
The time has come to listen, Sergiu.
1093
01:59:51,791 --> 01:59:54,666
Everything is fine. Everything is fine.
1094
02:00:11,250 --> 02:00:14,625
A profound conversation, Sergiu.
1095
02:00:32,458 --> 02:00:33,500
Happy Easter!
1096
02:00:33,583 --> 02:00:34,750
Dad!
1097
02:00:35,666 --> 02:00:36,708
Miki!
1098
02:00:41,291 --> 02:00:43,583
Happy Easter! I missed you.
1099
02:00:43,666 --> 02:00:44,958
Here...
1100
02:00:45,041 --> 02:00:45,916
Here!
1101
02:00:47,500 --> 02:00:48,791
For you.
1102
02:00:53,458 --> 02:00:56,500
- Happy Easter, Bitsi!
- Happy Easter, Poufig!
1103
02:01:06,833 --> 02:01:09,041
Bitsi, it's...
1104
02:01:09,125 --> 02:01:10,583
Can I help you?
1105
02:01:12,291 --> 02:01:13,125
Please.
1106
02:01:20,000 --> 02:01:23,375
To all the serenity and luck
what you deserve!
1107
02:01:40,000 --> 02:01:41,500
I have to go back.
1108
02:01:43,750 --> 02:01:46,625
My heart is there.
I have to direct for my family.
1109
02:01:50,500 --> 02:01:52,875
If you go... I'll go too.
1110
02:02:13,125 --> 02:02:15,000
{\an8}BUCHAREST, ROMANIA
1111
02:02:21,916 --> 02:02:24,541
Mihai Niculescu, Minister of Culture.
1112
02:02:24,625 --> 02:02:26,166
Welcome home, Master!
1113
02:02:28,708 --> 02:02:32,458
Sir, you will meet the Secretary General
during your stay?
1114
02:02:32,541 --> 02:02:34,666
Let's let the Master rest.
1115
02:02:34,750 --> 02:02:37,500
There will be other opportunities. Thank you.
1116
02:02:37,583 --> 02:02:39,500
Welcome home!
1117
02:02:39,583 --> 02:02:41,708
Thank you! Thank you with all my heart!
1118
02:02:45,083 --> 02:02:45,916
Hey, captain!
1119
02:02:50,875 --> 02:02:52,583
No, let them pass!
1120
02:03:10,250 --> 02:03:11,625
Where is Sonia?
1121
02:03:11,708 --> 02:03:13,791
He is traveling from Iași. It will arrive soon.
1122
02:03:13,875 --> 02:03:15,875
Does he bring dad too?
1123
02:03:15,958 --> 02:03:16,833
I'm not sure.
1124
02:03:19,833 --> 02:03:20,916
Isn't he coming?
1125
02:03:22,000 --> 02:03:23,083
It does not matter.
1126
02:04:21,458 --> 02:04:24,541
Master Sergiu Celibidache
George Enescu Philharmonic Orchestra
1127
02:04:24,625 --> 02:04:27,125
Part I: Romanian Rhapsody
composed by George Enescu
1128
02:04:27,208 --> 02:04:30,333
Part II: Pocket Garden
composed by Sergiu Celibidache
1129
02:06:53,875 --> 02:06:55,041
Yes?
1130
02:06:56,666 --> 02:06:57,500
Sonia!
1131
02:06:58,291 --> 02:06:59,166
Sergiu!
1132
02:07:05,833 --> 02:07:08,208
- You're home.
- I am home.
1133
02:07:08,291 --> 02:07:09,500
I am home.
1134
02:07:10,958 --> 02:07:12,000
My God!
1135
02:07:14,416 --> 02:07:15,750
You did it.
1136
02:07:17,750 --> 02:07:18,916
You come!
1137
02:07:19,000 --> 02:07:21,500
I looked for you at the airport.
Where did you go?
1138
02:07:22,375 --> 02:07:23,208
At home...
1139
02:07:26,500 --> 02:07:28,208
God, look at you!
1140
02:07:31,625 --> 02:07:32,833
Sergiu...
1141
02:07:38,000 --> 02:07:39,666
Dad is dead.
1142
02:07:53,791 --> 02:07:54,875
When?
1143
02:07:56,041 --> 02:07:57,666
Three days ago.
1144
02:07:58,333 --> 02:08:00,000
We buried him yesterday.
1145
02:08:05,000 --> 02:08:06,291
He didn't suffer.
1146
02:08:13,958 --> 02:08:14,916
It has you...
1147
02:08:24,208 --> 02:08:25,625
He left you this.
1148
02:08:37,541 --> 02:08:38,500
His medal...
1149
02:08:40,166 --> 02:08:41,208
Sergiu,
1150
02:08:42,791 --> 02:08:45,833
we are all very proud of you.
1151
02:08:57,875 --> 02:09:00,041
Thank you, my Sonia.
1152
02:09:02,833 --> 02:09:05,208
I didn't want you to find out like this.
1153
02:09:15,208 --> 02:09:16,958
I came here to play for you.
1154
02:09:23,125 --> 02:09:24,708
My big brother...
1155
02:09:25,666 --> 02:09:28,458
from its little ants,
up to his Pocket Garden.
1156
02:09:29,625 --> 02:09:31,291
Our pocket garden.
1157
02:11:18,125 --> 02:11:22,250
BERLIN IS REBORN FROM THE ASHES

FRESH BLOOD FROM THE EAST!

IDA HAENDEL IN THE HOLY CITY,
UNDER THE SPELL OF THE CELIBIDACHE KING

CELIBIDA WHO DIGS HIS DIT HIMSELF

1162
02:12:21,041 --> 02:12:24,875
ITALIAN REBIRTH FOR CELIBIDACHE
1163
02:12:41,750 --> 02:12:48,083
SERGIU CELIBIDACHE, MY SON
1164
02:13:29,625 --> 02:13:31,333
I have a question.
1165
02:13:31,958 --> 02:13:33,791
How do we keep music alive?
1166
02:13:35,333 --> 02:13:39,916
You speak as if music exists
outside of you.
1167
02:13:40,541 --> 02:13:43,750
- It doesn't exist.
- No, it doesn't exist.
1168
02:13:44,583 --> 02:13:46,833
Master, are we getting closer?
1169
02:13:47,708 --> 02:13:49,375
You are getting closer...
1170
02:13:50,333 --> 02:13:51,958
How much longer?
1171
02:13:52,666 --> 02:13:54,041
...to yourselves.
1172
02:13:55,875 --> 02:13:57,541
It could take forever.
1173
02:13:58,208 --> 02:14:00,500
Don't be impatient, Patrick!
1174
02:14:01,250 --> 02:14:03,000
I just wanted...
1175
02:14:03,083 --> 02:14:03,916
Listen!
1176
02:14:05,041 --> 02:14:05,875
But...
1177
02:14:10,208 --> 02:14:11,666
You are the music.
1178
02:14:20,458 --> 02:14:22,791
Now, if you don't mind,
1179
02:14:22,875 --> 02:14:28,416
I have to take care of a weeping willow
which, unfortunately, is dying.
1180
02:14:29,291 --> 02:14:31,333
I thank you all.
1181
02:14:31,416 --> 02:14:34,291
And see you next week.
1182
02:14:45,958 --> 02:14:47,250
I'll join you.
1183
02:14:51,875 --> 02:14:53,375
This needs to be watered.
1184
02:14:55,375 --> 02:14:56,791
Dad, don't worry!
1185
02:14:57,791 --> 02:15:00,125
- I know what I have to do.
- I know.
1186
02:15:00,208 --> 02:15:02,208
Do you know how I know?
1187
02:15:02,291 --> 02:15:03,208
As?
1188
02:15:03,291 --> 02:15:06,916
Because I know that when the time comes,
you will do what you feel,
1189
02:15:07,000 --> 02:15:09,625
just like I always have
what I felt.
1190
02:15:10,916 --> 02:15:12,666
You know it's very clear to me.
1191
02:15:12,750 --> 02:15:15,083
I understand your point of view
and I want to honor you.
1192
02:15:15,791 --> 02:15:18,166
You honor me by walking with your legs.
1193
02:15:18,250 --> 02:15:20,166
I don't want you to prove anything to me.
1194
02:15:22,291 --> 02:15:24,291
What if I choose to continue
your battle?
1195
02:15:24,375 --> 02:15:27,416
So let it be so!
But it will be your decision.
1196
02:15:28,541 --> 02:15:32,333
I have lived my whole life
1197
02:15:32,416 --> 02:15:35,875
according to someone else's expectations.
1198
02:15:35,958 --> 02:15:37,416
You don't have to do it.
1199
02:15:39,791 --> 02:15:41,875
And perfection?
1200
02:15:42,958 --> 02:15:46,666
Not even the Buddhist garden
It's perfect, Miki.
1201
02:15:46,750 --> 02:15:52,583
Imperfection is necessary to remind us
what perfection could be.
1202
02:15:52,666 --> 02:15:56,666
You will strive to achieve perfection,
but it will be your perfection.
1203
02:15:56,750 --> 02:15:59,333
Do what your heart tells you!
1204
02:15:59,416 --> 02:16:01,833
You know I'll always love you, son.
1205
02:16:01,916 --> 02:16:03,083
Always.
1206
02:16:04,916 --> 02:16:05,750
HI!
1207
02:16:09,875 --> 02:16:14,708
Look at that plum tree,
how it fries in the sun!
1208
02:16:15,541 --> 02:16:16,708
I'll water it.
1209
02:16:20,833 --> 02:16:21,666
Let's go?
1210
02:16:22,333 --> 02:16:23,166
Yes.
1211
02:16:30,583 --> 02:16:32,083
While we're here...
1212
02:16:33,333 --> 02:16:39,041
I want to show you something up here,
that I think we could do something with.
1213
02:16:39,125 --> 02:16:41,583
And I want to know if you agree.
1214
02:16:41,666 --> 02:16:42,833
Yes, please.
1215
02:16:49,500 --> 02:16:51,791
The Maestro brought the music
to the public for five decades,
1216
02:16:51,875 --> 02:16:53,291
conducting large orchestras
1217
02:16:53,375 --> 02:16:56,000
and driving to glory
the unknown ones.
1218
02:16:56,083 --> 02:16:59,291
In 1992, Celibidache was invited
by the President of Germany
1219
02:16:59,375 --> 02:17:00,458
to conduct in Berlin,
1220
02:17:00,541 --> 02:17:03,291
to celebrate the reunification
and the end of communism.
1221
02:17:04,000 --> 02:17:07,000
Sergiu Celibidache has passed away
on August 14, 1996, at 84 years old.
1222
02:17:07,083 --> 02:17:10,250
A year later, Miki published
his father's concert recordings,
1223
02:17:10,333 --> 02:17:12,583
whose proceeds have gone
to musical foundations.
1224
02:17:12,666 --> 02:17:14,375
It is specified on each CD
1225
02:17:14,458 --> 02:17:16,625
that the record is a souvenir
of a special moment,
1226
02:17:16,708 --> 02:17:17,958
but it's not "music".
1227
