Lyucya, you forgot your bunny.

Goodbye, Lyusenka. Avoid dating young men.

They have no love, no honesty, only impudence.

Some of them behave in a shameful manner.

Don’t drink too much on the road.

Of course not! I never drink in front of children.

Write to us!

Goodbye, girls. Write to us!

In a sunny meadow, With his eyebrow arched,

The young man is playing an accordion And singing about love.

About how he spent passionate nights With his girlfriend,

What beautiful shawls He gave her for presents.

Play, play, my accordion, Tell about how...

Here you go.

Let’s have a drink for our near victory.

- To your health, girls! - Thank you.

About how he spent passionate nights With his girlfriend,

What shawls...

- Your daughters? - No, I’m temporally responsible for them.

I’m going to Leningrad and agreed to accompany them.

Stop singing nonsense.

They spent this awful time in an orphanage.

When they were evacuating, they had a mother and father.

Now they are orphans.

- All seats are taken here? - Yes.

When they come back, I yield.

Do you behave in a shameful manner?

What did you ask?

- In a shameful manner? - Funny girl.

You're a funny girl.

Are you honest? Or impudent?

That’s funny!

Where are you coming from? What is your name?

Lucya, Lyudmila. And your name?

- I am Volodya. Let’s get acquainted. - Nice to meet you.

- Your sister? - Yes.

- Are you going to Leningrad? - Yes.

And you?

Me too.

- Where did you live in Leningrad? - Vyborgskaya Street.

A bomb demolished our house. We’ll live now with our aunt Dusya.

- The factory will take care of us. - Come on, boy.

Hey, son... sit down.

Come here Lyusenka. It's time to eat, girls.

Here you go.

I am an enchanted wanderer. Leningrad has enchanted me.

I will return home in Kursk, when the war is over.

- Very soon all of us will go home. - What have I learned in the army?

I mastered cars and driving, I’ll try to get driver’s license.

Being in the selling business has its advantages.

My dear, I am not a good seller. I won’t earn anything.

I'm a lumberman, I’m a carpenter, I’m a bird-lover.

- I’m an enchanted wanderer, I told you. - Your ticket.

- I need to go to Leningrad. - Where is your pass?

I really need to go to Leningrad.

Is it your bag?

Where are your things? This is all your stuff?

Well, let's go.

Come on, let's go.

How can you steal a ride?

And you never had?

Don’t you know why some people ride without tickets?

Yes, he’s just a crook! Wanted to steal something – didn’t work out.

- Valya, he wanted to steal? - Stop repeating nonsense.

- He's a crook, Valya? - No.

He's just a young man.

- Wait for me here. - And my papers?

Okay, you’ll have them back.

Son, come over here.

Sit down and eat.

Eat!

Eat all of it, don’t hesitate.

Oh! Little bunny eats.

Stop it! Go lie down.

You can rest a bit.

- You have a mother? - Yes.

- What does she do? - She works in a bank.

What about your father?

I don’t have a father.

From the Soviet Bureau of Information:

for the past day nothing significant has happened on the fronts.

Maybe we should knock?

Volodya, what are you doing?

Excuse us, please. Hello.

Hello.

We came to say goodbye to Nikolay Konstantinovich.

We're leaving, we evacuate.

We wanted to say goodbye.

Of course, you need to say goodbye, but Nikolay Konstantinovich is not home.

It’s been three days he hasn’t come home from the hospital.

Come in the evening, maybe he’ll be home tonight.

Thank you. Sorry to bother you.

- Goodbye. - Just a minute...

- I have a big favor to ask you. - Yes.

- Come in, come in. - Volodya...

I’ve never told Oleg he has a brother.

I want to tell him about it myself, when the time is right.

He's not home, but when you come in the evening, please...

Somehow, don’t accidentally...

I want to ask Volodya too, he's a big boy.

No, Volodya won’t tell him, don’t worry.

- Goodbye. - Goodbye.

- I'm not going there anymore. - How can you, Volodya!

Who knows, maybe we won’t see him anymore.

If we need to say goodbye, let’s go to the hospital.

Why are you here?

- We evacuate. We are leaving.

Well, that's fine.

You've grown up.

- What are your marks in school? - Not bad.

They could have been better, if he had tried harder.

- It's amazing how he’s grown up. - They are waiting for you.

I'm coming.

Well, good luck to you at the new place.

Take care, Vladimir. Study well.

Yes... Of course, you need money.

I'm sorry, it’s all I have.

He thought I came to ask for money.

We’ve never seen him before, and it wasn’t necessary now.

- Your change! - Keep it.

If I don’t see him again, I personally won’t cry.

Volodya, there were a lot of good things in the past too.

- Do you smoke? - No.

That’s good. Don’t start.

You were told to avoid heavy bags and not to take any luggage.

You try yourself to carry all this!

You were talking about sports and boots.

Vanya!

Now what to do with it?

We left so much at home.

There are only three cars for all these people!

You’ll load all your stuff and stay here yourself?

Don’t worry about us, go find your cars.

Oh, I have no luck...

We’re leaving. We won’t see a damn thing!

The war will soon be over.

- Soon? - Sure.

Have you seen the movie "If Tomorrow There Will Be A War"?

- Yes, I have. - Why are you asking then?

Soon the German proletariat will rise up.

Fool!

Girls, what a book I’ve read!

He loved her and she loved him.

Will you write to me?

How? We won’t know where we will be.

You’ll write to my address in Leningrad.

After the war we’ll find each other.

It’s awful! I am tired of this war.

Citizens, air-raid! Air-raid!

Let's go to the shelter.

Leave these rags! Life is more important.

You don’t like this heat. Who has started all this?

Don’t tell me you're hot, you’re the one to blame.

When I was raising her, I refused everything for myself.

And what is she doing now!

What are you doing to me? Where are you taking me?

You hate me! You're killing me!

You’re acting as if you were my enemy.

- Well? - Well...

I was nursing, and he met her.

No, it’s impossible that it's all over for me.

I’ll still be happy, not like it was before.

I’ll still fall in love and be loved.

You have a son to live for.

Of course.

- You know, I’ve been on the front. - Really?

I was at the summer camp in the children’s village

when the war began.

I took a horse out of the stables and rode to the front.

- And then what? - The police caught me.

- Where are you going? - Our mother is there.

She sent us to get some cans.

Lisa.

Lisa! Come on, eat an egg.

- Want to drink? - Nope.

Your girls are beautiful.

They look like their father. He’s blond too, of slim build.

I hope there won’t be any air-raid. We can’t take all this stuff to the shelter!

Look, a pigeon! Come on, let it go.

Good!

Let's go! I'll show you something you won’t regret.

Enough running! What did I say? Danila!

Lisa! Lisa!

Lisa!

Don’t shout! Your Lisa ran away with a military.

- How could she? - You should know better.

You are her mother.

Lisa!

Think about it! Just like that, without a passport!

- Did you see her leaving? - Yes. That lady saw her too.

- You saw her and didn’t say anything? - Would you?

- No way. - No one would have.

I don’t know who would say something.

- She’s so happy! It’s nice, isn’t it? - Yes, it is.

- Do you hear? A lion. - I hear.

Mom! Mom!

I lost a sandal, mom! I lost a sandal.

Hurry up! You’ll get crushed.

Mom, I want to go home! I want to go home.

Don’t cry. Why are you crying?

What’s the matter? Why these tears?

Why are you weeping, my little one?

Your feet will feel better soon.

Don’t cry, my sunshine. Don’t cry, my little one.

You badly injured your foot.

Your foot will feel better soon. Don’t cry, my little one.

We'll be home soon, it’s nice there. Don’t cry.

Don’t cry for a sandal. We’ll buy another one.

New one - this one was bad, dark.

I'll buy you a red one, very pretty. Lie down now.

Where is our bunny? Here it is.

I would like to change your dresses. Well, tomorrow.

I didn’t have enough time to love you.

I'm stupid, stupid.

I realized all this later, when I grew up

and became wiser.

I would’ve washed your feet, Mom. Now it's too late.

Our train is approaching Mga station, there is no way to avoid it.

It’s inevitable. Mga!

Mom!

On the river, on the river On the opposite bank,

Marusenka washed her beautiful feet.

Marusenka washed her beautiful feet,

Beautiful feet, azure eyes.

Gray geese floated towards Marusenka,

Fly away, gray geese.

Don’t muddy the water, don’t wake her father-in-law.

Father-in-law will scold Marusenka

Father-in-law will scold her, mother-in-law will rebuke her.

Where were you, Marusenka, for so long?

Where were you, Marusenka, for so long?

Who were you hugging all this time?

Guys!

Be quiet in the house, don’t disturb Lukiya,

she got a death letter.

Go, you have to eat.

Go.

O Lord, hear my prayer and let my cry come to you.

Because my bones are burned as a firebrand,

and my heart is defeated and dried out like grass.

So that I forget to eat my bread,

and when I drink my water, I dissolve it in my tears.

O Lord, for how long the wicked

will triumph?

They shall be as the dust in the blizzard, like the straw in front of the wind.

They shall be ashamed and swept forever.

Trample them by Thy power, O Lord,

Our Shield.

Will you go out to work?

Nobody can take the bread to the station. Will you do it?

Okay, I’ll do it.

And one and two and three and four.

And one and two and three and four.

And one and two and...

- Where are these dragonflies from? - From Leningrad.

Leningrad Choreographic School.

... And two, and three, and four.

And one and two,

and three, and four.

And one and two and three and four.

Thank you.

This Stepka is really strong!

- Can you do the same? - You think I’m weak?

Come on, girls, let’s help!

What if someone on the moon, sitting at the fire, is looking at us.

Maybe they have a war there too.

And they receive death letters too.

There is no life on the Moon. Mars may have it.

What is there, on Mars? People like us?

It could be people, it could be brains on the wheels.

You are yourself a brain on the wheels.

Well, Masha...

Well, Masha...

Oh this Masha...

You haven’t prepared a drink for your man.

- You're so careless, Masha. - I’m so careless.

- You're so stubborn. - I’m so stubborn.

Come here, Masha.

Volodya, wait!

Come to see us tonight, we have a party.

Will you come?

What is the address?

Write down.

Where are you going?

Who are you to me? You're a mosquito to me.

Clap!... and you’re dead. That’s it.

You look so arrogant.

I’m not arrogant.

Yes, you’re arrogant. You don’t listen to me.

Well, swear, as I taught you.

Swear, I’m telling you!

- I don’t remember how you swore. - Think. Come on!

Where are you going?

I can’t. Let me go, please.

Yes, you can, intellectual face.

Hey, you! Leave him alone, will you?

- Are you talking to me? - Yes, you.

Here you go.

Stop crying.

Grishka! Grishka, here!

Come on, hit him in the face.

Hit hard – or I’ll kill you!

Well, that's good!

Ah, you damn rowdy!

Lousy bandit! Dirty devil!

Jail is crying for you.

They sent you here to make our life difficult.

Why are you with him?

Go home now, before I tear your ears.

- Excuse me, please. - Miserable coward.

Hello

- Volodya. - Volodya, has arrived!

Happy Holiday!

Let’s take a look at you!

Wow, you’re a young man now. You became so mature.

Is mom home?

Home. She has a guest.

The news from the front aren’t bad today. Did you hear?

It seems the war will be over soon.

- Soon. How can it be soon? - Don’t say that, please.

I sleep and dream of our Riga.

Our Riga is the most beautiful city.

When you return to Leningrad, come and visit us in Riga.

It's close, very close.

From this far, it seems that Riga is near Leningrad.

Almost its suburb.

Volodya!

Hello, son.

This is my son.

Why don’t you say hello?

- Hello. - Hi!

Well, sit down - be our guest.

Eat son.

- Here you go! - What’s that?

Nothing...

Come on.

No, no, I’ve had enough.

- Honestly, I've had enough. - What do you mean, enough?

- Holidays are for drinking. - Truly, I can’t anymore.

What if I... ask you once more.

Happy holiday.

I'm going to the movies.

Will you get a ticket?

But a steel bird will fly there.

A heavy tank, a heavy tank Will not pass, will not pass

But a steel bird will fly there!

Propeller, sing louder the song,

When you flatten your wings.

For perpetual peace, everlasting peace In the last fight, the last fight

A steel squadron is flying!

For perpetual peace, everlasting peace In the last fight, the last fight

A steel squadron is flying!

Volodya, write to me when to get to the plant,

to the hostel.

Write to me.

Volodya, write!

Hey, manager!

Here is your new worker.

- What's your name? - Volodya.

- Where are you from? - From Leningrad.

- Did you hear? From Leningrad! - From Leningrad.

Romka, your countryman!

- You are really from Leningrad? - Really.

Great!

- Do you smoke? - Yes.

Do you remember the Nevskiy when it was illuminated?

Without illumination it’s beautiful too!

And sphinxes on the Neva? They are a thousand years old!

They were brought from Africa.

Have you ever fished on the Spit of Vasilievskiy?

I have!

Have you ever swum near Petropavlovka?

I have!

It’s far from us, It’s in another district.

What movie theater were you going? "The Giant"?

Zi - na!

Where are you going?

- To repair the water pipe. - You’d better go to sleep.

I have time.

The soup is between the frames of the window.

Warm it up and eat.

- Don’t worry, I'll be late. - Try to come earlier.

- Do you know who’s this? - No, who?

My wife.

Got it!

Volodya, get up, it’s past eight o'clock! Guys, wake up.

Tolka, Genka, come on! We are late for work.

Come quick!

You’ll be late!

- How is that possible? - Don’t shout.

It’s not a reason to ruin someone’s life!

- What do you do now? - What do you want from me?

- You know what. - I am required by law to submit a report!

- Forgive him, please. - Why should I cover him?

He’ll be put on trial, won’t he? Is that what you want?

Do we make toys here? I can’t do anything for you!

- Go to Bobrov. - Ivan Fadeich!

Ivan Fadeich!

It’s hopeless to go to Bobrov.

Jakubowskiy!

Jakubowskiy!

Jakubowskiy!

Where are you going?

- Where are you going? - What can I do?

I’ll be on trial anyway.

What do you mean "anyway"? Are you guilty?

Guilty! Then take your responsibility.

Forget "anyway."

I can’t understand your behavior.

You cross your arms and do nothing?

Come on! Let’s go to Bobrov.

Yes, it is. Well, well! All right.

If it’s necessary – then it’s necessary!

- What do you want? - Let me return to work.

- What's your name? - Jakubowskiy.

Jakubowskiy. Do you know the law?

You know you have to obey the law, right?

Right.

- Then what do you want? - Forgive him, please.

I can’t do anything.

You can’t?

So you're going to ruin his life, as an example for others!

Let’s destroy his life, so others won’t do it, right?

You can, you should. He could be your son.

What else is there?

Is it right?

Listen! The Leningrad blockade is broken!

Hello! Hello, Home Land!

We welcome you from Leningrad that is becoming free.

Thank you for your help.

Oh dear, you are so far away, do you hear us? The curse ring is broken!

You hold tight your hands, you breathe deeply, Your face is shining from happy tears.

Oh, how we’ll greed our fellow Leningraders Who didn’t forget their cradle!

We just need to clean up the city: It has suffered, it became dark in the battle.

The blockade is not fully lifted yet... Dear, good-bye! I’m returning

To my daily and terrible work In the name of the new life in Leningrad.

Volodya, I can’t decide. Zina wants us to go to her Ukraine.

Sorochintsy village.

Gogol described it in "Sorochenskaya fair ", remember?

I think we’ll go to Leningrad.

Although all my family is dead.

I only have a great-uncle there.

It’s too smoky in here. Zina will dispute us, won’t she?

Don’t worry. It’ll be OK by the time she comes home.

- Come on. - Hey!

Pour water into the teapot. Zina comes soon, we’ll have some tea.

- Rom, Rom! - What is it?

Zina crashed.

- Tosia, come here. - It’s not the right one.

- I'm telling you – that’s the one! - And I'm telling you - no!

Come here! Do you hear me?

You are so stubborn! Frosya!

Listen, could you be quieter? Can’t you see?

You have your business, and we have our own.

We have someone to pray for here. Frosya! Come here!

Rom.

Rom.

What?

You don’t need to stay here.

What?

Let's go to the hostel.

Let’s go.

If they don’t lie about jets,

then I’ll be flying them.

What will be the practical implications of all this?

What do you mean?

Killed, wounded, blockade, death camps...

Add those who were sent to Germany. Sum up!

So?

So what will be the consequences for countries and people?

Hitler Kaput Fascism is kaput!

It’s not enough for me.

Think, what is fascism?

Then tell me if it’s enough for you or not.

And the fact that we’ll be building communism?

We were building it before the war too.

You know what I’m asking?

What do you think?

Did people suffer enough with this war,

so a new war never happens again?

Or we didn’t suffer enough, and we’ll have to suffer more?

What do you think?

I don’t know.

Roman, you got a permission to go to Leningrad.

It’s from my uncle!

You have a great uncle.

Look who’s here! Hi, son of a prostitute.

How dare you?

I'll make ground meat out of you!

I just don’t want to dirty my hands.

I'll tell the guys, they will show you.

Snot!

Lousy intellectual!

For some people war is profitable.

Some use war to arrange their love affairs.

Depraved women like when husbands and wives are separated.

For the depravity of these women people are killed.

Volodya.

Volodya.

Son.

My son.

You are my joy.

That's my news.

What’s the name?

Tamara.

Tomochka.

Pretty name, isn’t it?

It is.

Ah! You’re here.

- Hello. - Hello.

You are working for the victory, and did she think about you?

She thought about her admirers! They left her.

That’s enough.

- Where are Latvian girls? - They moved to another apartment.

Who wants all these troubles?

I’m guilty in front of everybody.

I’m guilty in front of you and her.

Volodya...

You're angry at your father.

If only you knew how guilty I am in front of him.

I can not live!

I don’t want to live!

I can’t anymore, Volodya.

I take Tomochka to the nursery and I come to work all tired.

I’m dizzy, don’t understand anything, mix up things.

I’ll get fired! They would have fired me long time ago, if I wasn’t breast-feeding.

In this house everyone hates me.

I don’t dare to put some lipstick on,

they start saying that I am trying to attract somebody again.

It would be nice to leave! Return to Leningrad.

People there suffered so much, no one will ask anything.

They will even be happy that there is a little baby.

New life... where so many people died.

I don’t want to live!

Mom, stay here for a while. Let’s find another apartment.

You think it’s easy.

You think I didn’t try.

No one wants a baby.

- Or it’s too expensive. - Why don’t you write to father?

- No, I can’t. - Ask him to send you a permit to return.

He won’t do it.

He won’t send it.

I'll go without a permit.

I’ll help you to return.

Bobrov will let me go.

Auntie Dusya! Auntie Dusya!

Nyura’s girls arrived. Do you remember Nyura?

These are her children.

Nyura’s children...

They don’t look like Nyura.

They look like their father, he was blond.

They don’t look like Nyura.

Hey, you.

What are we going to do next?

I would like to...

I want to go to Mga. Find mom’s grave.

Mga?

Mga is a mess now, and there are a lot of mines.

- How will you find her grave? - I know.

There was a ditch where we were walking, and then...

What kind of mood is this? You’re young – you have to live!

Well, let's go to bed?

Come on.

That's it.

Come to the factory where your mother was working.

That would be beautiful!

That would be nice. Here is your bunny.

How do you like my Manka?

She was incredible during the blockade, running on rooftops when bombs were blowing.

She even caught a German soldier! She grabbed him by the neck.

Sleep!

They will offer you to work at different places.

Don’t accept anything. I don’t advise you.

We have a great team at our factory.

That’s the first reason, and the second – we remember your mom.

You're not anybody, you’re hereditary.

Listen to Manka, she’s got a point.

- Your house is destroyed too? - No.

When my mom died, auntie Dusya took me to her place.

I’ve been living here for three years.

I also have my own room. It’s large, 16 meters square.

If I decide to live on my own, I have where to go.

I'll show you – where to go. Let's sleep!

Sleep.

I have arrived. Hello.

No, I'm still going, going.

I’ll be going somewhere all my life. What will happen to me?

What?

What achievements? What changes of fate?

Who will I love?

Volodya has probably reached Leningrad.

I can meet him. Even tomorrow.

Why not? As if it was impossible.

- I give up! - That’s good.

It’s not bad here.

You have everything you need.

Yes, of course.

There are so many people around who can’t do anything.

Someone came yesterday,

asking me to reset the fuse. He had a PhD!

He can’t even reset the fuse!

I don’t understand how they live.

You'll stay with me till you get a room at the factory.

We'll get boxes, I'll make furniture for you.

How are the guys at the plant?

Nothing special. They say hi to you.

- And what's new? - What's new?

The Culture House has been rebuilt.

From the room where you and Zina lived, movies are projected now.

Movies are projected...

Funny.

Our factory in great!

It was on the front line. Germans came very close to it.

You’ll talk today to our manager.

It’s better to strike while the iron is hot!

I have to go.

- Where are you going? - I have something to take care of.

I’ll meet you at the entrance.

What do you want?

To adjust the objective truth to your perception?

It doesn’t have to conform to your perception if it’s objective.

I'm not saying it has to.

I'm saying I have to take it into consideration, if my feelings are against it.

- Typical idealist! - You are so girlish!

Oleg is a professor of cabbage soup

Volodya?

Hello.

Come in.

Take off your coat.

- When did you come? - Today.

I'm sorry. I still haven’t sent a permit.

I've been sick. I just begin to recover.

Well, how are you? No chasing, I hope?

What chasing?

Did they let you go from the plant or did you run away?

They let me go.

- So, everything is all right? - Yes, it is.

What are your plans for the future?

Do you plan to go back to school or college?

I’m not going back to school. In any case, I will work.

A friend will help me get a work at the factory.

Why a friend? If you want, I can help you.

It’s not me who needs to be helped now.

Ah, yes...

You wrote that... your mother is not doing well.

- Well, what does it prove? - For you it’s not convincing.

I have my own opinion.

Let’s go to my room.

Where are you going?

Oleg, it’s impossible to argue with you!

- Then don’t! - How can’t you understand?

Human beings tried for centuries to solve it!

Fine, let them continue.

- You have no right to ignore it. - I don’t ignore it.

I don’t accept it! It’s different.

You deny everything, even the Schmidt Concept.

- Yes, I deny it! - Who gave you the right?

No one. Everybody has this right from birth.

Let's stop this senseless dispute.

What are your arguments? You hear me? Argue!

What don’t you like about the Schmidt Concept?

Alright.

I don’t like when they represent

the universe in the form of a dusty stockroom.

Even if objectively it’s true.

It doesn’t suit me.

You have no right to judge too severely.

She always had an irresponsible, miserable personality.

Probably it is so.

That's the thing - she’s miserable. What does that mean?

That she should be left without help?

My road wasn’t covered with a velvet carpet either.

I worked in a factory, and finished technical school.

Went to college, loaded ships.

You spent a night in the port, go back to the dissecting room.

Your fingers are so frozen, you can’t hold an instrument.

Who was I doing it for? For you, so you wouldn’t starve.

My scholarship was enough for me! I could have lived on bread and water.

But I wanted to study and become a doctor. And she?

She was careless.

Nothing interested her, she never took a book in her hands.

I'm not talking about...

I don’t think it’s possible to say, how she...

She’s so miserable now, as one can be.

We are talking here... And she...

I can’t even imagine.

We need to help her. Do you understand?

I can’t do it alone.

First, you must help her come here.

She doesn’t have money to pay for the trip.

Second, you must help her get a job, so she could live.

But it's not just a salary issue.

The child should be in the all-day nursery.

This is her salvation.

She’s really sick.

Only this will save her now.

But why do I have to do all this?

Under what law I have to help her, when she’s responsible for all this mess?

We’ve been separated for 15 years now! This is ridiculous!

It’s ridiculous for you, but it's not ridiculous for her.

That's why you have to.

When should I call you?

- What day is today? - Wednesday.

Call... on Friday.

Bye.

Take care, Volodya.

- Who was it? Dad, who's that? - It’s... from my work.

- Why did he speak informally to you? - What?

- Non, he didn’t. - What kind of nonsense is it?

Who is that? My brother?

I won’t tolerate all these questions.

Who? What? Why? What business?

Everything concerns you. It’s disrespectful. Go! I'm busy.

Adults and suddenly all these lies and hysteria.

Volodya

Volodya

- Volodya? - Yes.

Hello.

I’m Oleg Jakubowskiy.

Look, we need to talk.

- Are you sure? - Yes, I am.

Where are you going now?

- To the factory. - Can I come with you?

Okay.

Listen...

Did you know about me? I mean, did you know that I existed?

Yes, I did.

Really? I didn’t know anything about you.

Interesting, why do they do it?

I don’t know.

At the end,

why should we care what has happened between them.

- After all, we are brothers, aren’t we? - Yes, we are.

Two tickets.

Ticket.

You know, the universe and an atom.

There... it’s the infinity out there, it’s infinitely big,

and here it’s infinitely small.

In fact, nothing is really known neither there nor here.

Only some assumptions, guesses.

I can imagine small,

but what is infinitely big?

Infinitely...

I can’t, my head starts spinning.

To be honest, my head is spinning too, when I think about it.

But it can’t be otherwise. There is no end - there shouldn’t be!

What’s important is that everything big is composed of infinitely small.

And the laws are the same.

Careful, there are people around here.

Why so long?

- Meet my brother. - Oleg.

- You have your documents? - Yes.

Let’s go.

Goodbye.
