Subtitles: Robert Ursu

Face!

The whole fleet!

War!

Man!

One thought!

A little trick!

A way to break through through the walls of Troy!

And let them burn her, let them throw her to the ground amidst the screams!

What does it mean?

Gift

to Athens.

We believe in the same gods

respect their gift.

Get him out of the water!

Take him to Temple of Athena.

The war is over.

Face!

Fleet!

War!

Man!

Stop!

Wrong song.

My mother's son!

Run away, my boy,

Run!

I remind them who owns this wine.

I don't want songs about Odysseus, but Odysseus himself.

And you also accept suitors at his house every night?

In this world,

man does what he wants and I do what I can.

Today I am a man, mother.

Then throw them out

you violate the law of Zeus, you will give them reason to attack.

I've already lost my husband.

I'm not going to lose another son.

Dad will be back. – Where is he?

Eight years have passed since the fall of Troy,

and almost twenty years have passed, since he left us.

Where is he?

He is our guest, just like you.

Are you calling us beggars?

I'm just saying that we welcome you for three years now.

We are abusing your hospitality,

because your mom I don't want to decide.

She is already married. – Odysseus is dead.

What do you know about my father?

That his meat is hard, and the wine is bad.

He drinks the best for two years.

I know he didn't come back.

Not yet.

You miss your father

that you didn't even know

like some grumpy bastard.

No one is sure who is his father.

You can't be sure it's mine.

I met him.

As children we watched him hunt.

I volunteered for Troy.

He told me to stay

and take care of you.

However,

Sparta is full veterans of Troy,

It's a real mine of information.

Are you the son of Odysseus?

Go to Sparta

Go to Menelaus.

He will welcome you.

The Queen wants it talk to a stranger.

She's hungry for news.

But without false hopes.

He has his own way of finding out if someone saw Odysseus.

See this man?

He's almost blind

but he beats travelers to death

when I lie about my father.

Too fast.

How do you know this?

You don't have to have eyes to hear a phrase said hastily.

Mentore, put pressure on him.

Too fast.

He's as polite as you!

He only listened to your father.

Where did he get it?

They met here.

- I'll take it. - For your son?

For hunting.

It smelled nice.

Don't move.

Do you want an ugly scar?

Why do you make the string make sound? - That's true.

- Warn the victim? - Fight honorably.

You didn't fight, just you were hunting.

Hunting is fighting in disguise.

You're smart, but your tricks they will bring you trouble.

Try again

not rushing so much and operating with greater precision.

You don't just win thanks to excellent defense.

Trigger an attack.

How? You hesitate.

Expose yourself to being struck by your opponent's sword. His attack will help you.

You taught this to my father?

He was the one who taught me.

One.

“You won't always be the strongest nor the fastest,

“Then be the smartest.”

What would he do?

what would happen if he found these suitors in your house?

I can't even imagine what he would do to them.

There are so many of them.

You kill two, a the rest will withdraw,

these scoundrels and cowards.

He was to go to Troy, but when Agamemnon approached,

Their uncles hid them.

He knew Agamemnon's war it will last many years and claim many victims.

He therefore chose his army by lot.

Name? Sinon.

- Shoot. - NO.

- Name? - Antinous.

Shoot.

Yes.

By draw?

Antinous says that he did it of his own free will.

They're up to something.

Your son wants to replace Sinon.

No way.

He lives here for your family.

He will take care of yours too son. Of course.

Come with me.

Did he want Antinous took care of me?

Odysseus wanted to avoid humiliation of these fathers,

he felt compassion.

He loved your mom and you more than fame.

He knew it would take years.

Did he tell my mom about it?

– Ask her. – Eumeus...

Will he ever come back?

Argos thinks so.

I've never seen a dog who would live to be 20 years old.

He survived a lot longer than his master.

Sorry to interrupt you.

I'm not in a hurry.

As the elders say, when it comes down to it I'll finish sewing a shroud for your grandfather,

I will have to remarry.

Why?

Ithaca still has no king.

They want to be protected.

By whom?

About the people of the sea.

These are travelers' stories.

Travel tells us about world, about the fall of Troy,

and everyone is talking about Sea People attacks.

Who are the Sea People?

Nobody knows, but the elders want to prepare us for this.

Is it to prepare us?

Our civilization is the most important of all that ever existed.

Look at this impressive house,

by these ancient stones,

left to their mercy greedy speculators.

The building means nothing

if its importance is ignored.

The law of Zeus.

Treat others well.

They trample her destroying everything.

How can you even imagine that you will marry one of them?

Because it was a long time ago.

Your father asked me to do this.

Agamemnon is our king.

The Trojans kidnapped his sister-in-law. – Or she ran away with them.

Anyway, the walls of Troy are considered impregnable.

We will be camping before this great city

to force them to going out and fighting.

And the years will pass Telemachus will grow up,

and you will learn live without me.

Menelaus will give up on Elena.

This is Agamemnon's excuse

breaking Troy's control over trade routes.

He won't back down.

Never.

What if you refuse?

He will take our son away.

He won't do it.

He sacrificed his own daughter

let the wind be favorable.

Did the gods demand life his daughters?

The power of sacrifice

depends on how much it costs the person who does it.

This is terrible.

And ruthless.

I won't be back here anytime soon

if I come back here again.

What if we escaped?

The fastest ship and the best sailors,

we would head towards the horizon,

hand in hand,

We sailed west at dusk

let's follow the elusive sun.

There is a world outside these walls.

Agamemnon's revenge

will approach Ithaca.

Promise me that.

If I don't come back

before Telemachus grew up,

promise me

take someone else as your husband.

No further sacrifices.

Love is not a sacrifice.

Of course.

I want to spare you from this.

It's not up to you.

Promise me.

You too, promise me you'll come back.

What if I can't make it?

Then it's not your memory will decide for me.

Take my brooch

always carry it with you, a Athena will bring you home.

I'm not sure if this will suit me.

If travelers say that

that they saw you

I'll ask what you were wearing

and I will know are they lying?

If there really are Sea People,

Today, Ithaca has none a king who could raise an army.

I can sit on the throne.

Come.

Pull the rope.

It's not fair!

You say only he could do it.

He told the others to try...

None of them managed to do it.

It's ruining us completely

for you to marry one of them before I can reign.

Menelaus returned many years ago.

Everyone is back. – Those who survived!

Maybe he's dead.

Then this palace would belong to me.

We need to find out

and I have to go to get it Menelau.

Telemachus, you the messengers wish you harm.

You think I don't know?

Every night something pushes me for me to make a mistake.

And there, on seas, on roads,

they won't need it no reason to kill you!

You don't want me to rule.

You want to stop me so that you can remain Queen of Ithaca.

I'm tired of being a queen without my king!

Without your king?

Or maybe just a king?

And you think you're ready to replace his father?

You are a child.

Too loud, Melanthius.

Remove your spurs in the palace. You are a shepherd, not a rider.

And you are a pig. What do you have the right to tell me this?

My master appointed me superiors of their shepherds.

Already from We haven't had a master for a long time, old blind man,

and you are equally undesirable here like this dog,

Argos.

Argos.

Lord, he didn't do anything.

So you're the one who smells?

Leave that old dog alone.

Which one? - Both of them.

Are you insulting me?

You wanted to protect my father's hunting dog.

A hunting dog?

Look at this wreck.

Take him outside. We we're going to eat something.

Can't you see he's suffering?

Then let me finish this.

Leave him!

Have you seen it?

Have you all seen this?

He attacked me! Justice is on my side!

Mercy!

Don't hurt my son.

Don't worry so much, Polybus.

This young boy is he warmed up, poor guy.

Drink more of his wine, I'll be fine.

This is my father's hunting dog.

He lives only to see Odysseus return.

I'll throw it in the landfill outside so they can see it faster.

This dog is sitting outside!

Think before you commit for the animal.

Eurykleja,

sends food to ships

through trusted people.

This will ruin your mom.

If I stay here I'll have to fight and there is no one to protect me.

I need information about my father.

Ithaca will support me if Odysseus is indeed dead.

There will be suitors furious, you won't come back!

Tell Mentor to come to ships before dawn.

What do you want me to say? your mom?

Let him last as long as he can.

The ship is ready, conditions are favorable.

Have I ever told you that you have the eyes of a wise man, the eyes of Athena?

Once or twice.

You don't want to ask where are we going?

Where are we going? – I'll look for my father.

He's alive and the wind and waves confirm it.

He's wandering somewhere injured, lost, who knows?

But he's alive.

Dreaming again?

People who drown

in one

dark place.

Firelight falling on stone. I forgot.

Of your own free will?

Why are the words of the gods incomprehensible?

Who doesn't understand thunder?

Or maybe fire?

A child's smile, a bountiful harvest?

You're hiding from us.

Look.

Who's moving this cloud?

Who collects these birds?

Who is causing the commotion?

Who were you talking to?

Athena appeared to me again.

He tells me to remember.

I should leave. – Why would you leave?

We have everything we need.

How long I'm here, Calypsa?

I have a home somewhere.

I have someone

all over the world.

How do you know this?

I don't know.

I feel it.

This life can last forever.

This is only for the gods.

Are you a goddess?

You want to remember this. What if this memory destroys your happiness?

It was an illusion back then.

Don't eat them anymore. – I love them.

No more lotus flowers.

What memories do you have?

After Troy.

Fair?

We won the war.

And then?

Ten years on this damned coast.

We're going home!

Think about those whom we leave here.

Do we have enough supplies?

We have plundered Troy enough.

One or two stops won't kill us.

Pull the oars into the boat.

At rest!

Row!

We raise the sail and we follow the south winds.

Agamemnon flows towards ports in the west.

There are more people to feed.

We'll find a place to anchor somewhere.

It's risky.

I followed Agamemnon for quite a long time.

With a bit of luck and favorable winds,

we will see something of the world when we will go home before Agamemnon.

Hold Ursa Major on the right side.

Odysseus!

Earth!

You see?

Lucky you.

We were running out of supplies.

Send a group ashore

ask for food for three weeks.

What if he refuses us?

Are you in a hurry to get home?

Prepare your weapons!

Beg, borrow,

to plunder.

Why did they leave the village instead of accepting us?

They got us mixed up with the Sea People.

We are Greeks from Ithaca.

Perhaps you know that we defeated Troy.

We follow the south winds.

If we keep this course,

We won't like what we find there.

After years of war

no one could come between my people

and their homeland.

Not even me.

Did something happen there?

Let's follow the elusive sun.

Earth!

And here we are.

He was extremely lucky.

Sheep live in flocks.

Let's go after her.

Someone lives here.

And it produces cheese.

It's quite delicious!

And in excess! – Let's go.

We have nothing to exchange.

The law of Zeus.

Does the resident know? the law of Zeus, or Zeus himself?

Everyone knows the law of Zeus.

Keep the fire burning

for the master's return.

Move away from the fire.

Disperse!

I think he's sleeping.

Wait.

Scale.

It's too heavy.

We will be caught.

Tomorrow morning

when he walks his animals,

we run towards the entrance.

Rest for a while.

Come on!

We could block something at entrance to leave a gap.

Maybe.

But what?

This log.

He will notice it.

We'll put in the thinner end to the fire.

Shall we...?

How many animals are there?

Twenty or thirty.

There are too many of us.

On the way back two of us get off.

Or they are killed.

Come out upside down among the animals and disperse.

This way you only catch one. - Exactly.

We have to leave the four of us, two each.

Why should we try this?

He ate two people.

He'll want two more.

What will we do with the body? – What are you talking about?

Should we let him rot here?

What will we serve with this dish?

We honor our dead, Odysseus.

He died so that we could be saved. We will honor his memory by saving ourselves.

Poseidon, revenge!

Speak.

Why didn't he say about this before?

Are you talking to ants?

Should we try talk to him sensibly?

I think I'm over it now.

How are you?

Row!

Even stronger!

Why did you shoot an arrow at him?

This beast killed good soldiers.

And this beast

he was the son of Poseidon.

When I gouged him out eye, he shouted his name.

It was a monster.

I heard that scream too.

Will the sea be ours? against? And the wind.

How are we supposed to get back if Is Poseidon against us?

He doesn't believe in people and victims.

How many times have I seen you since Troy? in tears, praying to Athena?

Didn't she show mercy?

Take it.

Wear it

in memory of those whom we failed to bury.

Help yourself and the gods will help you.

Then

at each stormy seas or headwinds,

people considered themselves for the damned.

By the way, where are they?

When will you let me see him again?

It would help me remember.

I had a wife, children, son?

How long have I been here?

Long.

If I have a son,

how old is he?

How to talk to the king?

Don't worry.

Don't open your mouth and if they ask you,

We are merchants from Crete.

We'll see how turn to the king.

Welcome!

Thank you. It looks like that you are right in the middle of...

This way.

Where are you taking us?

The king insists on receiving in person foreigners.

Please sit down.

You don't.

You.

Please take advantage of our hospitality, as Zeus commands,

before you tell us maybe who you are.

Just in time!

We are celebrating my daughter's wedding.

he's leaving tomorrow, to start a new life.

You don't look like much beggar. Do you know who I am?

My name is Menelaus,

son of Atreus, brother of Agamemnon,

Elena's husband.

Do you remember who she is?

This face

launched a thousand ships.

There are certainly only 500 of them left.

That's how many people died in... Troi because of that face.

Because of ambition your brother.

This is familiar to me.

Aiax,

Patroclus,

Achilles.

I miss him less than another warrior.

The smartest of us all.

Ten years of rot on this beach.

Dipping and tearing apart until a certain man

found the solution.

Odysseus.

You know that story about the horse?

Have you experienced this from the inside?

We spent whole days there

crammed in the middle from the moment of departure of the ships.

Odysseus didn't want anyone to know about it, even Sinon,

the soldier I left behind.

In the first two waves we had drowning victims.

We sat there, soaked, silent in urine and shit.

Gift

to Athens.

We have the same gods

respect their gift.

We have to burn it!

Burn him!

It's a gift for Athena!

It's a gift for Athena!

To the gates!

He waited until the moonless night will cover the plain of Troy.

Everyone to the gates!

To the gates!

Come on!

You already know the rest.

Are you impressed? You should hear as storytellers praise him.

I heard them.

They were not with you.

With your father, Odysseus.

You are so much like him.

Where did you leave it?

In Troy.

The gods supported our just victory...

Right?

They supported our victory, but not our journeys.

I came back after many years. He doesn't.

Some regretted coming back.

Tell him

what happened to your brother.

The fate the gods had assigned to him after your righteous fight.

That he was welcomed as a hero.

That Agamemnon has returned many years ahead of us.

How she accepted him his queen, my twin sister Clytemnestra.

Tell him...

He's not here by my brother!

But for his father.

I don't know anything about him from Troy.

Nothing?

Or from your people?

Agamemnon's men, travelers, merchants?

You came to collect gossip and stories?

You are in the right place.

Is anyone spreading it? stories about Odysseus?

They say he's rich, they say he's poor,

or that he died, that he is in prison. Who else says anything?

In prison?

What a prison

he could support such a man.

Tell me what you remember.

The rest will follow later.

People believed more and more that I insulted Poseidon.

We've weathered storm after storm

we were off course

and we got lost.

Good morning.

We come in peace.

We need food.

Food!

Don't you understand? – He's just a baby.

Then what kind are his parents?

Don't be afraid.

Quickly, to the ships!

My bow!

Wait.

Row! – Wait!

Run!

Row! – Wait!

Come on!

Get that damned boat up and running!

Turn left

follow the coast.

Do they have ships? – We have to run away.

Without supplies, no we can sail blindly.

We are lost.

We need to stock up and understand the situation.

To the left.

There!

Smoke!

Go along the shore, we drop anchor on the beach!

Raise your oars!

Send a group ashore.

Tomorrow.

Tomorrow.

Someone take care of the boats.

We would prefer if you sat down.

We?

All.

Survivors.

Is this a rebellion?

Decide for yourself.

Give me the bow and I will I will find food for us,

even if you come back empty-handed.

Don't be afraid.

Everything's fine We won't do you any harm!

If I obey you.

We won't do you any harm.

My name is Eurylochus. And you?

Circe.

We need food.

I have food.

Lots of food.

I'll take care of it.

Your weapons and armor,

put them aside.

Do you like my beautiful songs?

Why do you have so many of them?

Who knows when Will aliens come?

These people

what did you eat?

They never have enough.

Eurylochus!

They left! There's no one here?

Give me the dagger.

Stand by the boats!

Come on, come on!

Will you come by sea?

Are you alone?

My pigs are starting get attached to you.

Are you hungry?

Leave your weapons outside

and accepts Zeus' hospitality.

Catch a pig, a you'll kill her for dinner.

I don't know who you are but you're definitely not some peasant girl.

Come on.

This stew smells nice.

There's enough for both of us.

Who tells you there's only two of us?

Who else is here?

That is the question.

You say you're alone

but no one comes here alone.

Is that so?

You can only get here by sea.

Where are your companions?

I'm looking for them.

Has anyone been here?

So much food. – Do you doubt me?

About you?

Apparently a hungry traveler, who doesn't touch food,

who pretends to be a sailor

and wears armor great warrior

and which infringe law of Zeus,

carrying a dagger wherever he is invited.

You have a keen eye.

Sharpened by the gods.

Are they sending you revelations?

truth,

sometimes.

Do they know where my people are?

Your people? - Exactly.

They would know.

Will you tell me?

Maybe.

If you give me the dagger.

But why would I help a liar who rejected my hospitality?

Your people came and now they are gone.

Have they left already?

Leaving your wedding rings behind?

Bad idea.

NO! – What kind of raven is this?

Put down the dagger, or else I'll strangle you to find out.

Leave her alone. – Is this someone from your family?

Your mom?

Your sister.

You turned her into this and my people into pigs.

I didn't transform your people, look at them!

That's who he really is they are there, look!

These disgusting instincts

and the basics you value in combat!

They raped and robbed everywhere is your fault.

You think they did it under duress just to listen to you?

One commander confuses wildness your people with discipline.

You don't seem that naive

but you sent them here anyway

where I live alone.

A horde of cruel soldiers

on an empty stomach and with hot blood!

You thought that they will respect me

in your own home?

Look at them, get to know them your people!

Have they hurt you?

He would do it.

They just want to go home.

Let them go home.

Come back.

Come back.

Put the costume back where it belongs.

Come back.

Put the costume back where it belongs.

Odysseus.

We're back on board, to replenish supplies.

Put the meat aside.

Don't let this witch live.

Who gifted her these powers? Your gods.

Pour water.

At dawn we weigh anchor.

Why do you leave it like that?

That's better we understand each other.

Forgive us if we offended you.

Help us get back home

let's find trade routes.

You are too lost.

What do you mean?

Old blind Tiresias knew... Only old blind Tiresias knows the way.

Tiresias? In the land of Hades.

Nobody goes to hell and he doesn't come back from there.

You'll make it.

Swim north towards dusk.

Then he enters the areas where the river of fire

connects with the glacier.

Dig a hole there

pour into it blood of the victim,

brings back the dead

and find out how to get home.

You,

not your people.

You cursed them?

It's not a curse

but it's true.

Your people don't want that you defy the gods,

but the gods say that only you will return.

Then I will challenge the gods.

Or.

This is Odysseus.

Otherwise,

This is Odysseus.

Let him drink, Odysseus,

and you will hear his story.

Odysseus?

You lied to them all.

You had to lie to me too?

You had to believe it.

Why did you volunteer?

Don't you remember?

I prayed to occupy Antinous' place,

when they took him away.

He paid your family to take his place.

If the Trojans don't spare me,

if I don't come back,

tell this to my father.

Tell him everything we did.

Odysseus?

Don't hesitate to flourish.

Haven't you trusted? me the truth?

I was ready to die for you!

When dying, a person speaks the truth. You had to believe it.

I died because of your lie.

I know, I was there with you.

I heard you saying with his last breath, it's a lie

which ensured our victory in the war.

I was so close that I felt your blood.

What a comfort this brings me

find out that you only got into this situation because of the dead?

What kind of dead are we talking about?

Many veterans of your campaigns wanders around these parts.

The dead gather to mourn the living

and accept the new dead.

My father's shadow found me.

Is this supposed to comfort you? – Shadows are not comforting.

They ask about those who are still alive, and who wronged them.

My father died a poor man,

alone,

begging for leftovers from people like Antinous.

Has Antinous betrayed you?

And sure it does that to you too.

How so? – Who protects your wife and son?

I'm not worried about my wife.

Ask Agamemnon about his return home.

Is Agamemnon here?

You were the one who buried me with dignity in Troy,

thank you,

but you neglected others.

I did what I could.

when you come back

take the ship

sail west into the unknown, until you reach the shore.

And there he makes a sacrifice

and respect your people.

Do you still have tickets?

Of course.

If you come back,

return it to him, Antinous, a hundredfold for his disgrace.

You can count on me.

My king.

Odysseus.

What are you doing here?

As a winner you were coming home.

You, Odysseus,

my most talented general, You wouldn't fall for the trap like I did.

Are you also lost like us?

My bad luck was that I'm back

that she welcomed me my beautiful wife,

washed,

greased,

soaked,

only to learn a painful lesson:

that once upon a time I poisoned her heart

that she loved someone else.

She and her lover had been plotting for years, to kill me.

Odysseus?

My son Orestes,

took revenge for me?

How do I know this?

I'm still trying to get home.

Don't make the same mistake as me

does not exceed the z threshold hope for crowns and praise.

He comes in disguise,

take your time,

analyzes.

You understand?

I know what I have to do. – Partly.

My prediction is not it is intended for their ears.

Get back on board.

Go southwest

Step away from the sirens.

Their singing attracts your people, and everyone dies.

I will prevent it

I'll plug their ears with wax.

After the sirens,

you choose between the spinning one Charybdis and the monster Scylla.

The vortex will kill you all

rock monster it will only kill six.

But your stubbornness not to sacrifice more lives will lead to the death of all.

I will make this decision.

Finally, when you get hungry and rebellion becomes a threat,

they will want to go ashore where the sun god keeps his flocks,

and they will massacre Apollo's herds.

Zeus will kill them as part of the punishment.

You see?

I will stop them.

Why do you care more about these lives than on those already lost?

I can still protect them before the gods.

But not about themselves.

What is this?

Your people who were not buried.

They want you to he shared their shame with them.

Quick!

Is this our fate?

Is this our destiny?

I managed to escape from hell

leaving so many behind fallen comrades.

I have to save the others.

What happened to them?

They left me here?

Will they come back?

You attacked them?

You attacked them?

Eat.

You told me to turn off the Lotus.

Just for the night so you can he could get some sleep.

And tomorrow, when you will be there ready, you will remember.

You will remember the crew,

family.

Wife?

Do I have a wife?

Don't be afraid, Melantha!

No foreigner will enter.

Despite this obstacle,

After three years, I'm not anymore a stranger to you.

You want to marry me or rather ruin my reputation?

Melantho is discreet.

That's why I'm here - because I care about your reputation.

We all see you working.

I'm making progress slowly but surely.

But every night you destroy what you have created.

Leave us alone.

You can't expect her to be loyal towards a master he doesn't know.

I thought she was faithful to me.

It will be like that as soon as you marry me.

Slaves

they must keep loyalty for the future,

and this house looking for owner,

just like Ithaca looking for a king.

The King of Ithaca will return.

No way.

Did you know that in childhood wanted to follow him to Troy?

He didn't tell me.

Odysseus refused.

He knew Ithaca deserved it for the future without him.

And you saw me as part of this future.

I won't say other suitors of Father

your deception.

Finish your work.

It's time to say goodbye to him.

Why would you marry a a woman who loves another man?

Your loyalty to Odysseus

this is one of your greatest advantages.

I love you.

I want you to choose me and put an end to it all.

Don't tell me you're not tired

expectations, uncertainty.

You have fulfilled your duty

year after year,

year after year.

It's time to think about yourself

start living again.

This is what Odysseus would have wanted.

I'll take care of you.

My queen.

And my son?

The throne is his. He is the heir.

Only if we have a child.

Where is Telemachus?

In the countryside,

to see his grandfather.

She's lying

sailed.

He set out to find his father.

Where?

In Sparta,

at Menelaus.

Do we have to go there?

You're always too noisy

Melanthius, for a shepherd!

You were eavesdropping!

I was looking for Argos. – It's where it usually is. Go back to the farm.

We will send Melanthius, to bring us pigs.

There is no place for you in palace, old man.

I only listen to my lady.

Does she even know your name?

Go outside!

Telemachus will surely return through the temple at Pylos.

Wait for him there along with his people.

Are you also planning to court the Queen?

No way.

He must die on the way.

Irus has a plan.

I want him and his men to die in trenches with their throats cut.

Telemachus and his men will ready to face bandits on the road,

but if bandits replace priests in the temple...

Bring the fragment with "Telemachus" as evidence.

His nose.

You would recognize him just on the nose?

And behind the ears.

Who trained you?

My father's pig farmer.

His pig man? His most loyal servant.

Did Odysseus leave his most a loyal servant at home?

He was always the most thoughtful.

Agamemnon listened only to himself.

He should have listened better.

What happened to your brother?

His wife cheated on him

She was the one who killed him.

What did he do?

Orestes' son killed them.

Did he kill his mother?

He avenged his father,

but don't worry

Your mom isn't at all like Clytemnestra.

Perhaps,

but the matchmakers convinced parents to remarry her.

It's not good to the throne remained empty.

You know what they say about the Sea People.

They attacked you? – No, but the danger is approaching.

Sparta is ready.

What about Ithaca?

Must be able to recruit an army.

The throne must be occupied.

So that's where it goes fight, boy.

You ran away from the problem

and you left your mother on favor of the suitors.

Should I hire mercenaries?

Should I go home and kill these matchmakers?

Kill the rich and influential guests?

You will be banished.

What should I do then?

Eliminate them, no violating the laws of Zeus.

I must sit on the throne

and find out if Odysseus is alive.

This has nothing to do with the father you never knew.

You have to act like a leader,

wherever Odysseus is.

You must remember this.

NO.

I can give up the truth I'm happy here with you.

Then why do you collect rubble to build a raft?

Remember your crew,

about your journey.

I heard about songs of the sirens.

Plug their ears with wax.

Not mine. Tie me to the mast.

Why? - To hear the sirens.

Bad idea. No one he survived after hearing them.

That's a good idea to be the first.

Even if I ask you

don't unbutton me until we won't be out of reach.

Check if they can hear.

Double reward for the first, who will say: "I hear you!"

What song was that?

Everything a man could wish for

and then

everything we would wish for, and what we should never have wished for.

It was that sweet itch that makes you want to scratch it,

before you realize it it's under the skin, inaccessible.

Then itching it becomes unbearable.

He said it's what we want most

is the most forbidden,

and that what is most forbidden

this is what we already had

and we lost.

It was a song my broken promises.

He told me it was true I don't want to go home.

It's boiling!

Straight ahead!

Caribda,

monstrous vortex.

Raise your sails!

Quick!

Raise the anchor!

Towards the open sea?

It's already drawing us in.

Towards the north!

Across the strait? – It's too narrow.

Step into the vortex

follow the slope to gain momentum and get out to the other side.

Be brave, we can do it.

We go through strait. Straits!

Paddle in!

Oars on the starboard side,

ready to stop!

On my mark!

Paddles out!

It worked!

It worked!

I did it.

Thank the gods.

Stay the course!

Stay the course!

You knew

and you didn't say anything!

You would refuse passages this way.

And these people they would still be alive!

We would all die!

You had no right to do this!

It was all my right and duty!

This vortex would swallow us up everyone, until the last one.

At least I survived. – Not everyone!

What else did Tiresias say?

I'll land there!

We have no right to do this, that's it is the island of the Sun God!

We need to renovate!

People are exhausted we lost six comrades!

We get off, to rest on land.

You will all die!

What did Tiresias tell me?

That you will all die

if you sacrifice

cattle of the Sun God, who inhabits this island.

You will all die.

In such a case,

we cool down, we cook only from our stocks.

We collect fruit,

Strain the water and that's it!

Jurors.

Everyone, swear.

You see?

The wind carries us right there!

We rest, we repair,

and we will set out, as soon as the wind changes.

Grab that rope!

Did your people keep their word?

Yes.

Long.

But the wind didn't change direction.

A steady breeze that she led us to the shore so easily

made any trips impossible.

And the food started running out.

Run!

You thought that when you ate in mystery, will you deceive the Sun God?

To deceive you.

I'm not the problem

I wanted to keep you alive.

Tiresias warned you, Circe, and the gods have also warned you.

Word of the gods is incomprehensible.

Who doesn't understands suffering?

Blood, death?

Do you perceive the loss of a loved one as an accident or as a consequence?

I see it as a consequence my failure.

Is their death was it an expression of their own failure?

I am in charge of them.

I brought them here.

And who brought you here?

Why do you put yourself above gods and you take on this responsibility?

Why don't you want to come back?

What were you hoping for?

They had nothing left to eat.

Have mercy!

It was through my compassion that we found each other on this piece of garbage!

I warned you! - That's true.

And we decided to drown instead of starving to death.

Right now we have our chance.

The wind has died down!

This silence was enough to lure us into Poseidon's ocean

under the sky of Zeus.

Lead us into the wind!

Let's pray to the gods!

Lead us into the wind!

Lead us into the wind!

Surrender to the gods!

Pray to Poseidon!

Beg for forgiveness!

My last memory was the unyielding hand of Zeus.

Eurylochus!

I don't know what happened to them.

You know it.

The fate you foretold for them.

I landed alone on your shore.

You landed on my shore

with a piece of your ship and none of your people,

half dead, unconscious.

I was watching over you, lost,

days in a row

and weeks.

I knew it was the lotus it will make it easier for you to wake up,

that you will suffer more physically than mentally.

And it worked!

You liked it very much

you ate it willingly.

And when I cared for you.

Thank you.

I started to love you.

How long have I been here?

I told myself I had to to teach you about it,

that you had the strength to remember it.

Answer me, Calypsa. – You were happy.

You were happy too.

We were happy for many years.

Years?

Seven years.

You forced me to eat flowers lotus to trap me.

I saved your life.

I restored your health,

but I couldn't bring myself to do it to bring you back to your senses.

You were happy

but your heart

he was always somewhere else

and it was inevitable that in eventually your mind will follow too.

How...

The lotus confuses the mind

and weakens the will, but it doesn't change you yourself.

You weren't ready to come back without knowing why.

Now I am.

Just as I predicted.

How so?

In the first weeks you were holding something tightly in hand

and you screamed.

And especially Athens,

but sometimes you called another name.

Penelope.

Help me come back.

That's what I'm doing.

You are a man who tries control your own destiny.

But you have no control over it.

You have to surrender to the storm

surrender to Poseidon,

accept your punishment.

Zeus won't let him kill you.

Give up the fight let go and enjoy life.

It's a leap into the unknown

Which one yet? You didn't do it, Odysseus.

Odysseus?

Where are they?

You don't recognize your homeland?

Zeus welcomes you, strangers.

How many of you are there?

Half a dozen.

Do you need food?

And wrestling

for the journey.

Where are you going? We need pigs.

We're going to Pylos.

Are you pilgrims?

Do we look like pilgrims?

I can't see well.

Zeus tells me to feed you, but I can't sell these pigs.

Don't worry, we won't pay.

Say hello to your mom for me.

Tell him I'm sorry

for Troy and for everything, what happened on my behalf.

I'm sorry I don't have it no news about your father.

But you learned something new

about what kind of person he is.

Now I want to see him one day even longer.

Where are they? your guard dogs, old man?

They burn their remains.

Can Zeus heal you, stranger?

Did they attack you?

Did these dogs save? your shepherds?

No, first I burned his brothers.

What happened to Ithaca?

Darkness.

The law of Zeus was ruined,

a kingdom without a king after my master's death.

Your master?

Odysseus.

Hero of the Trojan War.

But Odysseus lives.

Another beggar and his false hopes!

Enough of this!

Telemachus...

Telemachus?

He's in danger I can't help him.

The rest of Ithaca must be ready to help Odysseus' son.

They rule the palace messengers.

There is no one left loyal to Odysseus.

What about the queen?

Beautiful and wise Penelope,

held hostage by miscreants

and soon forced into marriage,

What will he do? Even without your son?

Drink this.

What danger threatens Telemachus?

He's on his way home from Sparta.

The matchmakers sent thugs to get him they killed in the temple at Pylos.

Give me something to eat for the road.

You won't make it catch up with the bandits.

If I reach Pylos before Telemachus, I will be able to warn him.

Why are you helping him?

Don't be angry at my answer.

I served under Odysseus in Troy. - Really?

Demanding leader. How fair!

Right and worthy imitation.

Did you love him?

Like your own son.

He didn't die.

Will he come back?

Soon.

Let them complete their revenge.

The most terrible.

I will speak. No let's reveal who you are.

Then we should have come without guards.

They will be useful to us if we will encounter some problems along the way.

I'm giving you a message. Please wait!

Eumeus sent me!

Bring me that beggar.

Your people stay here and your weapon too.

Zeus welcomes you, strangers.

Have you traveled a lot?

Not so much.

Do you want to spend the night here?

We come to lay down a sacrifice to Athena.

We will take everyone into consideration hospitality offer.

All right. The beggar stays outside.

He has a message for me.

Did Eumeus send you?

Yes, sir.

What is the message?

This is confidential information.

These people are...

These people are priests.

Come outside, old man.

Go away, stranger.

This week I spared the life of an old man,

but he was blind. I won't spare...

Not bad for a beggar.

Nobody is born a beggar.

Put on this priestly robe for your armor.

Help me move it. – We have to leave it.

Let's escape undetected.

In this way we do not honor the dead. – This is how we will survive.

He was my mentor.

Or maybe it's Athena in disguise. – It was Mentor.

Once you're safe, we will go to the unknown west to worship him.

They were servants messengers.

More will come. Let's go.

At night? – It's better than sitting here.

The mentor resides in ancient temple of Athena.

For now, let's celebrate him fire.

Into the fire!

So, beggar, have you met Mentor?

I told you no I was born as a beggar.

You have the eyes of a wise man, Athena's eyes.

Don't look for gods in people, because you will be disappointed.

Then tell me who you are.

My name is Sinon,

I am a veteran who fought under your father's command in Troy.

Did you know my father?

I listened to him since time immemorial.

So he's alive?

He's alive.

But where is he?

This is very close

and he sent me as a scout to examined the situation.

Mom won't believe it! – Don't tell her anything.

Absolutely nothing?

tell him

that you decided that she must remarry.

Is he checking her? Does he have doubts about her?

No,

but he has every reason to forget about him.

Are they still there? loyal servants?

Several.

When Odysseus reveals his identity, everyone will be loyal to him.

You have to accumulate suitors in the palace.

This is never a problem.

You bring gifts from Menelaus?

Yes, on my ship.

All right.

Come back like a prince,

orders to organize a feast.

I'll be there.

What will you be doing there?

I will beg.

From below everything can be seen more clearly.

How many suitors are there?

Dozens.

- But if all his people are like you... - There isn't one.

Are you the only one?

You too.

Telemachus is back. - What?

Telemachus is back!

Who says that? - All!

Where is Telemachus?

My queen, better stay on top!

Is it true?

He's back!

I'm here

let's celebrate tomorrow night.

If there are any crumbs left, so let's celebrate something.

Fear not, my brave suitors they will spoil us on the occasion of your return.

I'm glad to see you safe and sound.

I'm glad you're on the mend now.

It's time to take you back to the palace.

What did you learn? about your father?

Nothing.

War stories, but nothing about his fate after Troy.

I'm sorry, mom.

In Sparta the only language is spoken about the coming catastrophe,

the dark age that the Sea People they will trigger, breaking the law of Zeus.

So it's true

Our civilization is falling.

Menelaus says we are defenseless, and the throne stands empty,

so I came up with a plan.

Any plan?

To dismiss the suitors,

you have to choose.

Do you want me to remarry?

Then the remaining candidates they will kill each other

and it will remain with me so only one enemy.

I'm getting old, I will say elders that Odysseus is dead,

and Menelaus will convince them, to give me the throne.

You give up on your father, and so do I I'll leave here with one of these snakes.

What a plan! – Suggest something better.

Let's lock everything down let's set it on fire

and let's burn these bastards!

You think if I get married again, life Will it go back to how it was before?

This world has ended.

And in the new one

they will not give up power neither to you nor to Odysseus.

If he comes back, will have to kill him

just like you will have to.

If they kill them,

their families will desire revenge and I will be exiled.

And without me the throne is lost.

Because only a man can sit on it.

"The Empty Throne"?

I was sitting on it an empty throne for twenty years.

My knowledge my many years of experience

it's nothing compared to the hair on your beard.

You want peace

or revenge?

You want Odysseus!

Sing.

Oh, Muse, what a face!

Face!

The whole fleet!

War!

In Troy!

Sing, O Muse, about a certain man!

Man!

Great idea!

Trick!

Eumeus, go before me.

Argos.

You will bury him on the rock.

Where did you meet?

You are Odysseus.

You are my father.

I'm a beggar.

And you,

you are worthy

wonderful son

Odysseus.

The son who

when you finally meet,

it will be a source of pride for him.

Welcome home

foreign.

Because the darkness of victory

surrounds legend tellers

and turns us all into blind poets and beggars!

Take advantage of Zeus' hospitality.

Give this stranger something to eat.

No, sir.

I will walk around tables with my bowl.

You invited again some disgusting parasite?

That's just it another beggar in this area.

Let's kill him before will impress the Elders.

How so?

Provoke him

make him take the gun.

It's not ours anymore a young man who can be ridiculed.

So we'll go back there at night to kill him.

Go. Please.

I'm hungry. – Go!

Can't you be generous towards other people's food?

There is no more room in your bowl.

Actually.

Here you go.

You think I have something for you?

Well, I have something for you.

Do you have something for me?

He has something for me!

What could he have? an old and ugly parasite like you

possible

what would interest me?

Actually, it's yours.

I was asked to return it to you.

It's not mine.

Is that so?

Where did you find her?

Don't turn your back on me!

Antinous.

Respect beggars. – This is the law of Zeus.

Zeus' law?

Is this god?

Is this a god in disguise?

Tell us!

You are god

flatterer?

I'm a veteran Trojan War.

Veteran of the Trojan War.

What's your name, veteran?

Or.

Is that the name does it tell you something?

This is my way of paying tribute the bravest among the youth.

What if not?

Wasn't this your shepherd's son?

This doesn't mean anything to me.

You wanted to replace him.

Where did you find this?

Where you will soon find yourself.

Meaning?

With Hades.

Enough of this!

The feast is over!

Let's go.

This isn't mine!

The Queen wants it talk to you

as the room emptied and fires were burning.

111

Good evening, traveler.

My queen.

Melantha,

let Euryclea he will wash the feet of a stranger.

No need.

My husband insisted on treating guests like family members.

You've heard about mine husband, Odysseus?

Of course.

From songs.

I was in Troy, noble lady.

You must like these songs seem funny.

They make me cry...

Why are you crying?

For what was lost.

For life?

And through the years

and for everyone else.

Did you meet Odysseus in Troy?

Yes.

Have you noticed anything unusual?

on his clothes?

A strange brooch.

Weird?

beautiful,

but extraordinary!

Describe her.

I will change the water.

He was beautiful

gold brooch,

depicting Athena wrapped in vines.

Did she wear it often?

He never took it off.

How did you do it? come back, unlike Odysseus?

I'm not back, not yet.

Why?

Not always it's easy to go home.

This applies to both Odysseus and Joseph.

The Odysseus I knew

would find a way to come back to me

despite storms and winds.

What if Odysseus, who you knew is missing?

Or maybe it would be so

one night

in a foreign city,

what he saw

convinced him that the house he knew

Can't this already exist?

Or maybe it would be so

coming out of the horse's belly

and opening the gates of Troy,

would see how ten years of anger

flood the city within one night?

Everyone is welcome!

Quick!

I left them

gift,

peace offering

which they accepted

at their house.

I have desecrated what is the most sacred

between people,

and we changed the course of the battle...

Destroy their idols!

While hunting.

Burn the walls of Troy

meant to replace the whole world in ashes,

including your own home.

And if he knew

that night

passing through fires

anarchy and suffering...

Also during the next holidays, all sweaty,

if he knew exactly

what did he do?

What did you all do?

One person's idea

someone's cunning

violation of the law of Zeus

forever.

We lived in a world of palaces,

convertible

and in words,

dazzled by her beauty,

until I destroyed it.

You are the People of the Sea.

Yes, my queen.

Breaking the law Zeus spreads like a plague,

Our Bronze Age is coming to an end.

Perhaps he didn't want to see the consequences of their actions

nowhere,

especially in your own home.

But Odysseus lives

and will return to you at a decisive moment.

Anyway,

I lived quite a long time among its ruins.

Invite suitors Dawn, gather your weapons.

Soon one of the suitors will be happy, and the rest will want revenge.

The gun will stay prohibited during competition

and the door is closed.

I will marry the one who will win my challenge.

How will we oppose them?

Dumb".

Their blood is there intended for my hands.

You would also risk exile.

And you don't?

Take their weapons within reach.

I see.

Even if they are not armed, there are many of them

and you will not be armed.

I will be armed.

Your mom she took care of it.

Hire trustworthy employees,

let them take their weapons upstairs.

Quick, put your weapons back.

Quick.

Looks like Zeus is interested in the result.

But what is this competition about?

For many years,

in my husband's absence,

you took over this one a palace for your parties,

under the pretext winning my hand.

Listening to you serve the meal,

when you argue,

how you bribe my servants

and since you profane my house,

I wanted Odysseus he came back and saw it all.

But last night

I realized

that since he's not here yet,

he won't come back.

Therefore,

I'm ready to marry anyone from here

who can tense up this hunting bow

and shoot an arrow by these twelve axes.

Please move on

Show us what you can do!

Eumeus?

Who starts?

Give me that bow.

This doesn't make sense.

For you.

When I was a child, I saw how Odysseus did this with ease.

Then do it.

I'm waiting for my turn.

Why not heat it up and grease the bowstrings?

Over the years it dried up.

It's your turn.

This doesn't make sense.

My queen has the last word,

Odysseus cannot be replaced.

Some of us have always known this

and he would follow it great man until Troy,

if he asked for it.

But he didn't come back

so choose the best of us,

we who have failed your test.

I have not failed.

Throw these beggars outside!

The door will remain closed until end of the competition.

The competition has ended.

I want to try.

You're irritating us!

He has the right to try.

If you give up your seat, give it to him.

You mock your mother's desire.

Her desire is to all of you were burned.

This Arșar is too old.

Let's see how this expert works in practice.

You parasite!

Give it a rest, old man!

Come on, buddy

That's enough.

Let him try.

It's you, Odysseus.

You better stay downstairs.

Run!

Is that him?

It's him!

Go guard your weapons!

Where are the weapons? - At the top.

Go get them!

What are you waiting for?

He will kill us all.

Attention!

I told you! Too loud, cowboy!

Yes!

Grab your swords!

Grab your shields!

Lances!

Use your spear!

You thought that will you kill us all?

And above all, kill you.

Eliminate him.

Dad.

In Hades,

tell my people

that I'm heading west to honor them.

And tell Sinon

that it's for you I paid back this shame.

What now?

Have you defeated them?

Is he dead?

I severed the fragile bonds between people.

And in dark times that will come

tales of Troy

they will only be sung.

Odysseus, my dear!

Odysseus,

my dear,

you're back.

Finally,

at the last minute

to see my beloved Ithaca

for the last time.

You have no right to do so.

No, please, I've waited so long.

You have no right to die!

Not death,

exile.

Telemachus will become king.

We will go towards the unknown West

to honor my people

Together.

With your fastest ship,

together with your best sailors,

We'll head towards the horizon.

Let's follow the elusive sun.

Why these Will the stories only be sung?

Only songs will remind you those of us who could write.

Civilization will be reborn.

The new day will brighten this dark world

and our mistakes will remain forgotten once again.
