A Georgia-Film Studio Production
1964

16
00:01:32,501 --> 00:01:36,918
As you get there, find out
where this hospital is.

17
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:43,250
Don’t be afraid to ask.

18
00:01:45,834 --> 00:01:47,834
There’s nothing wrong
with asking questions.

19
00:01:49,417 --> 00:01:53,250
You’re going to be late, Georgy.

20
00:01:54,667 --> 00:01:57,000
I tell you you’ll be late!

21
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:13,250
Be careful on the train,
these are evil times now.

22
00:02:14,417 --> 00:02:17,167
Don’t get in the rain,
you mustn’t catch cold.

23
00:02:17,584 --> 00:02:20,667
Don’t keep all of your money
in one place.

24
00:02:22,834 --> 00:02:25,417
Button up your pocket.

25
00:02:44,167 --> 00:02:47,250
Best regards to your son, Georgy!

26
00:02:48,834 --> 00:02:53,000
Good luck! Keep your chin up!

27
00:02:53,584 --> 00:02:58,834
Try to find out where my boy is.

28
00:02:59,501 --> 00:03:04,417
I’ve not heard a word from him
for weeks.

29
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,584
Get into the cab, Georgy.

30
00:03:28,751 --> 00:03:31,417
Hey, you’re not going to put a big
man like him into that hen-coop!

31
00:03:33,834 --> 00:03:35,834
Give him a hand up.

32
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,000
You’re doing a good thing, Georgy.

33
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:51,000
You’ve got a long trip ahead of you.
Don’t lose heart!

34
00:03:55,751 --> 00:04:01,834
Maybe you’ll run into my Mikha?

35
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:15,584
You’ll be meeting a lot of people.
Ask them…

36
00:04:15,834 --> 00:04:19,167
It’s been a whole year
that we’re fighting.

37
00:04:19,334 --> 00:04:23,000
When are we going to chase out
those Germans?

38
00:04:24,083 --> 00:04:26,334
You’ll be almost at the front
when you get there.

39
00:04:26,501 --> 00:04:33,000
If they start bombing,
crawl into a cellar or a hole.

40
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:38,000
The boy’s crazy.
There’re no bombs there.

41
00:04:39,834 --> 00:04:42,417
Do whatever you can.
Beg the doctors…

42
00:04:42,584 --> 00:04:45,959
Try to get him on a furlough,
who knows?

43
00:04:46,751 --> 00:04:52,083
He was already wounded before.
Isn’t that enough for one war?

44
00:05:02,751 --> 00:05:05,918
The town’s called Dubovo.
Hospital number…

45
00:05:06,083 --> 00:05:08,167
What’s that? You’re praying?

46
00:05:09,584 --> 00:05:11,999
Let him pray
if it brings him any comfort.

47
00:05:12,125 --> 00:05:14,125
Pray, Georgy, it’s all right.

48
00:05:17,417 --> 00:05:23,083
Can’t you say something
before you leave?

49
00:05:23,250 --> 00:05:29,417
What do you want me to say?
I’m going, and that’s it.

50
00:05:29,667 --> 00:05:32,667
Can’t get it started.
Give ‘er a push!

51
00:05:49,334 --> 00:05:53,417
Georgy!
Don’t come back without Goderdzi!

52
00:05:53,584 --> 00:05:56,000
Don’t forget it, do you hear?

53
00:06:01,167 --> 00:06:04,417
Soviet Information Bureau
Communique:

54
00:06:05,417 --> 00:06:11,834
On September 11 our troops
put up stubborn resistance

55
00:06:12,417 --> 00:06:16,417
west and south-west of
Stalingrad,

56
00:06:16,667 --> 00:06:23,417
in the region of Mozdok
and on the Volkhov sector.

57
00:06:24,083 --> 00:06:28,667
After several days
of fierce fighting

58
00:06:29,167 --> 00:06:34,167
our troops
withdrew from Novorossiysk.

59
00:06:36,584 --> 00:06:39,751
It’s too heavy for you.
Let me help.

60
00:06:39,918 --> 00:06:42,918
That’s no job for a woman,
to carry heavy sacks.

61
00:07:21,250 --> 00:07:25,250
Listen…
Will you give me a lift to Dubovo?

62
00:07:28,584 --> 00:07:30,834
No, I can’t. There’s no room.

63
00:07:33,250 --> 00:07:39,417
- Be ready soon, Vassily?
- In a minute.

64
00:07:39,584 --> 00:07:41,584
All right, climb in, old man.

65
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:49,250
One ticket to Dubovo…
Luggage costs extra.

66
00:07:49,834 --> 00:07:53,417
A horse ain’t a barge.
Every extra pound counts.

67
00:07:57,083 --> 00:08:01,000
- All settled?
- Yes.

68
00:08:01,250 --> 00:08:04,834
Heave off!
Full ahead!

69
00:08:10,167 --> 00:08:12,751
Give the kid a drink. It’s hot.

70
00:08:18,083 --> 00:08:23,417
We had a good potato crop
this year,

71
00:08:23,584 --> 00:08:28,584
but a bomb fell in the garden.
We had to pick what we could.

72
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,834
Move over! You’re not the only one
in the cart.

73
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,667
What’s eating you?
There’s room for everybody.

74
00:08:36,834 --> 00:08:40,334
Good boy!
Women should be kept in hand.

75
00:08:40,501 --> 00:08:43,751
- Just look at all his sacks!
- What have you got in your bundle?

76
00:08:45,918 --> 00:08:47,918
My, how rich we are!

77
00:08:57,584 --> 00:09:00,667
Take a nap, son.

78
00:09:00,834 --> 00:09:03,501
Yes, I guess I’m a bit tired.

79
00:09:16,167 --> 00:09:21,250
You’ve got strong legs.
How come you’re not in the army?

80
00:09:22,417 --> 00:09:29,501
What can I do there? It’s young men
like you who must fight.

81
00:09:32,334 --> 00:09:36,000
Got a smoke, old man?

82
00:09:39,918 --> 00:09:41,584
Yes.

83
00:09:56,417 --> 00:10:00,417
Good tobacco. Want to sell some?

84
00:10:04,334 --> 00:10:08,000
I will give you some as a present.

85
00:10:09,751 --> 00:10:13,250
Don’t be stingy.
Look how much you’ve got.

86
00:10:15,834 --> 00:10:22,000
It’s for my son. He’s in the hospital
in Dubovo.

87
00:10:22,167 --> 00:10:25,167
Wounded?

88
00:10:26,250 --> 00:10:32,584
In the shoulder.
My son is a tankman.

89
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:50,834
What sort of tobacco is this?
Got no strength.

90
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:52,584
It’s good tobacco.

91
00:10:53,584 --> 00:10:56,584
- Here, take it back.
- No, keep it.

92
00:10:56,751 --> 00:11:01,751
It makes me cough
after the stuff I’ve been smoking.

93
00:11:11,250 --> 00:11:13,834
Here’s your hospital, old man.

94
00:11:30,751 --> 00:11:34,751
Don’t. I can carry them myself.

95
00:11:36,834 --> 00:11:39,834
Thanks.

96
00:11:42,167 --> 00:11:45,417
- Vassily.
- Goodbye. Let’s go!

97
00:11:48,584 --> 00:11:50,584
What do I owe you?

98
00:11:52,250 --> 00:11:55,959
So long, old man!
Good luck to you!

99
00:12:21,501 --> 00:12:24,000
- How d’ye do.
- How d’ye do.

100
00:12:29,167 --> 00:12:31,167
Yes, that’s the registry.

101
00:12:31,417 --> 00:12:37,000
The surgeon’s operating.
Very well.

102
00:12:37,167 --> 00:12:38,834
Who do you want to see?

103
00:12:39,083 --> 00:12:41,501
Close the door, will you?

104
00:12:42,834 --> 00:12:45,000
My son is here.

105
00:12:45,167 --> 00:12:49,250
What ward?
Do you know what ward he’s in?

106
00:12:55,083 --> 00:13:01,167
- What’s your son’s name?
- Goderdzi Makharashvili.

107
00:13:03,417 --> 00:13:06,334
He’s a tall, good-looking boy.

108
00:13:06,501 --> 00:13:10,417
- Tell me his name, will you?
- Goderdzi Makharashvili.

109
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:13,834
Makharashvili…

110
00:13:23,501 --> 00:13:26,584
Here he is: Makharashvili!

111
00:13:26,751 --> 00:13:29,501
Good! You did it!

112
00:13:29,667 --> 00:13:31,918
He’s been discharged. Gone back
to his unit. He’s not here.

113
00:13:33,083 --> 00:13:35,834
He’s not here any more.

114
00:13:38,834 --> 00:13:44,834
What do you mean, not here?
Here he is, here he isn’t!

115
00:13:46,584 --> 00:13:48,667
His name’s here, but he’s gone.

116
00:13:48,834 --> 00:13:52,167
- Why isn’t my son here?
- He got well and went back.

117
00:13:53,083 --> 00:13:57,167
- Went back where?
- To his army unit.

118
00:13:57,334 --> 00:14:02,417
- I don’t understand.
- He went back to fight.

119
00:14:03,501 --> 00:14:05,167
Show me.

120
00:14:05,334 --> 00:14:07,417
Don’t you believe me?

121
00:14:07,584 --> 00:14:13,334
I believe you, but let me see
for myself.

122
00:14:21,501 --> 00:14:23,918
Here. He was discharged on the 16th.

123
00:14:24,250 --> 00:14:26,417
Don’t take away my register.

124
00:14:31,417 --> 00:14:33,417
Now you believe me?

125
00:14:35,751 --> 00:14:37,417
Can you see it?

126
00:14:41,834 --> 00:14:46,000
No…
I can’t read Russian.

127
00:14:46,167 --> 00:14:49,417
Then why did you look in the book?

128
00:14:52,083 --> 00:14:54,083
It’s all right, forget about it.

129
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:58,834
You ought to be glad
your son’s well again.

130
00:14:58,999 --> 00:15:03,125
Hurry up now,
or you’ll miss your train.

131
00:15:21,417 --> 00:15:25,125
Where are you going?
There’s the door!

132
00:15:25,292 --> 00:15:29,375
I came all this way
to be told such a thing?

133
00:15:29,584 --> 00:15:32,584
I told you
he got well.

134
00:15:32,751 --> 00:15:35,834
You think my son lied to me?

135
00:15:38,083 --> 00:15:40,584
Here is his letter.
He says he’s here.

136
00:15:40,751 --> 00:15:42,999
I can’t read Georgian.

137
00:15:43,125 --> 00:15:45,834
My son never tells lies.

138
00:15:45,999 --> 00:15:50,000
Stop! You can’t go in there!
It doesn’t make any sense.

139
00:15:54,417 --> 00:15:57,000
Are you crazy or what, old man?
You can’t go there.

140
00:15:57,167 --> 00:15:59,584
- Why?
- That’s the surgery!

141
00:15:59,751 --> 00:16:01,667
You can’t go there without a smock.

142
00:16:01,834 --> 00:16:03,918
- Then give me a smock.
- No, I won’t.

143
00:16:04,042 --> 00:16:07,584
Get out of here
before somebody sees us.

144
00:16:08,584 --> 00:16:15,000
Wait…
First I talk, then you talk.

145
00:16:15,167 --> 00:16:16,417
All right, go ahead.

146
00:16:22,584 --> 00:16:26,584
- Hey, where are you going? Stop!
- I know what I’m doing.

147
00:16:30,584 --> 00:16:32,250
Excuse me, doctor…

148
00:16:32,417 --> 00:16:36,751
- What’s going on here?
- I couldn’t stop him…

149
00:16:36,918 --> 00:16:40,584
I told him his son has gone back
to the army.

150
00:16:40,751 --> 00:16:43,417
He doesn’t believe me.

151
00:16:43,584 --> 00:16:45,292
Wait.

152
00:16:49,417 --> 00:16:51,667
Why don’t you believe him?

153
00:16:54,250 --> 00:16:57,334
Well, you see, doctor…

154
00:16:58,083 --> 00:17:02,417
It took me a long time to get here.

155
00:17:04,584 --> 00:17:09,667
I rode, rode, rode on a train…

156
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,751
I rode, rode, rode in a car.

157
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:18,834
I rode in a cart…

158
00:17:20,083 --> 00:17:23,000
Now he says
my son is not here.

159
00:17:23,167 --> 00:17:24,918
He’s been discharged. He’s gone!

160
00:17:27,334 --> 00:17:31,417
You see… All right, I’ll go home,

161
00:17:33,167 --> 00:17:37,751
and my wife and my friends
will ask me:

162
00:17:38,751 --> 00:17:43,501
“Did you see Goderdzi?”
What do I say?..

163
00:17:59,417 --> 00:18:00,999
Doctor!

164
00:18:04,250 --> 00:18:06,250
Some more wounded have arrived.

165
00:18:06,918 --> 00:18:09,584
How’s the captain doing?

166
00:18:10,250 --> 00:18:12,834
Not good.

167
00:18:15,584 --> 00:18:17,584
Doctor…

168
00:18:17,751 --> 00:18:21,000
Show him the ward
where his son was.

169
00:18:22,918 --> 00:18:24,918
Oh yes, that’s Goderdzi!

170
00:18:25,417 --> 00:18:28,417
But his mustache is a lot longer
than that now.

171
00:18:28,584 --> 00:18:30,167
Yes, that’s him.

172
00:18:31,667 --> 00:18:34,918
- That’s his tank.
- Number 416.

173
00:18:35,042 --> 00:18:37,250
That’s right, number 416!

174
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,334
And you didn’t believe him!

175
00:18:44,834 --> 00:18:47,918
Which was his bed?

176
00:18:54,250 --> 00:19:01,834
You will get well too!
This is a lucky bed.

177
00:19:03,584 --> 00:19:06,667
They repaired him fine,
you can be sure of it.

178
00:19:06,834 --> 00:19:11,000
He went to dance
and he lasted longer than anyone.

179
00:19:11,501 --> 00:19:14,667
- He danced good?
- Like a gazelle.

180
00:19:14,834 --> 00:19:17,834
Why don’t you go and see him?

181
00:19:17,999 --> 00:19:20,417
His unit’s stationed in Demidovo.

182
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:27,000
His pals came here to see him.
Pay him a visit.

183
00:19:27,501 --> 00:19:31,999
- Where is Demidovo?
- Not far from here.

184
00:19:32,167 --> 00:19:36,417
The commandant at the station
will show you the way.

185
00:19:36,584 --> 00:19:42,751
Commandant?... I know
what is a commandant!

186
00:19:47,250 --> 00:19:49,834
He’ll give you a pass.

187
00:19:54,334 --> 00:19:59,667
No, he will ask for papers,
question me where I come from…

188
00:20:04,417 --> 00:20:07,834
I tell you he’ll give you a pass.
Just show him your son’s photo.

189
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,167
You think so?
Then I will go.

190
00:20:11,751 --> 00:20:14,834
Best of luck to you, pop!

191
00:20:21,167 --> 00:20:23,167
Oh, wait…

192
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:31,083
Here, presents for you
from my son Goderdzi.

193
00:20:32,834 --> 00:20:37,584
Some sweets.
A little wine.

194
00:20:38,417 --> 00:20:42,000
I’d better go now.
Get well, son.

195
00:20:46,417 --> 00:20:49,250
Goodbye, boys!
Get well!

196
00:21:04,584 --> 00:21:06,751
Wait! Wait!

197
00:21:10,083 --> 00:21:13,167
You’re going to Georgia?

198
00:21:13,375 --> 00:21:15,417
No, that’s too far.

199
00:21:43,751 --> 00:21:47,751
- Would you like a smoke?
- No, thanks.

200
00:21:49,834 --> 00:21:54,000
What are you doing here?

201
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,334
You have nothing to do
but ask questions?

202
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:06,834
- Come on, have a smoke.
- I don’t smoke.

203
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,918
Too bad to refuse such a treat.

204
00:22:11,667 --> 00:22:13,667
What brought you here?

205
00:22:14,918 --> 00:22:20,334
My son was here.
In hospital. Wounded.

206
00:22:23,584 --> 00:22:29,334
Now he’s well.
He went back to the front.

207
00:22:30,667 --> 00:22:33,751
He went before I came.

208
00:22:33,918 --> 00:22:38,167
Bad luck.
There was a Georgian in my unit too.

209
00:22:38,334 --> 00:22:40,501
- Tankman?
- No.

210
00:22:40,667 --> 00:22:42,918
He was lots of fun,
singing songs.

211
00:22:43,042 --> 00:22:46,417
When we took Melitopol,
we were beat.

212
00:22:46,584 --> 00:22:50,834
We just dropped, and a mine went -
whack! That was it.

213
00:22:53,250 --> 00:22:55,584
What was his name, that Georgian?

214
00:22:57,250 --> 00:23:02,501
Everyone’s got the same name
at the front: “soldier”.

215
00:23:02,667 --> 00:23:06,667
Sorry I talk too much. I had a shock
and couldn’t talk for weeks.

216
00:23:06,834 --> 00:23:08,834
Just got out of the hospital.

217
00:23:10,167 --> 00:23:12,667
Not this one, though.

218
00:23:12,834 --> 00:23:15,834
Didn’t you find out
where your son’s unit was?

219
00:23:16,834 --> 00:23:21,334
Sure I did. What else
would I find out if not that?

220
00:23:21,834 --> 00:23:26,584
Near here.
The place is called De…

221
00:23:26,751 --> 00:23:32,334
Demidovo? Why, that’s only
a two-hours’ ride from here.

222
00:23:32,501 --> 00:23:36,250
That’s what I tell him.
“My son’s near here. Show me.” No.

223
00:23:36,417 --> 00:23:38,417
What are you sitting here for?

224
00:23:38,584 --> 00:23:46,083
I say, “Let me go.”
He says “No.”

225
00:23:46,250 --> 00:23:54,250
Yesterday I asked the commandant
all day long.

226
00:23:54,417 --> 00:23:58,417
I showed him my papers.

227
00:23:59,334 --> 00:24:03,501
“That pass,” he says,
“not good here.”

228
00:24:03,667 --> 00:24:07,167
“Go home,” he says.

229
00:24:07,417 --> 00:24:10,417
To hell with those papers!

230
00:24:10,584 --> 00:24:15,334
If that train stops, get on, and
in two hours you’re in Demidovo.

231
00:24:16,834 --> 00:24:18,834
No, no.

232
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:23,083
Too bad. Think it over.

233
00:24:23,250 --> 00:24:24,834
No.

234
00:24:25,584 --> 00:24:30,000
- Well, did you make up your mind?
- No, I can’t.

235
00:24:30,167 --> 00:24:33,584
So long then!
I’m going to join my pals.

236
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:21,000
What are you doing here?

237
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,000
Just taking a walk.

238
00:25:28,083 --> 00:25:30,834
Then I’m going to take a walk
the other way.

239
00:25:32,501 --> 00:25:34,667
I like to walk.

240
00:25:48,083 --> 00:25:53,667
Hey, father! Are you coming
or not? Make up your mind!

241
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,834
- What about it?
- No!

242
00:25:56,999 --> 00:25:59,000
It goes to Demidovo.

243
00:26:01,918 --> 00:26:03,918
I’ve got no papers!

244
00:26:04,042 --> 00:26:06,918
Forget the papers!

245
00:26:09,834 --> 00:26:11,834
The papers!

246
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:15,834
Jump on fast
so nobody sees you.

247
00:26:27,250 --> 00:26:28,417
Good work!

248
00:26:36,083 --> 00:26:38,083
I love to travel.

249
00:26:38,417 --> 00:26:43,083
- My name is Arkady Yershov.
- Georgy Makharashvili.

250
00:26:48,834 --> 00:26:52,751
- Don’t you believe me?
- I’ll just hand him over.

251
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,000
Take that gun away!

252
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,417
Caught a spy, did you?

253
00:27:00,584 --> 00:27:03,667
I ought to sock you one.

254
00:27:07,334 --> 00:27:08,834
Get down!

255
00:27:16,834 --> 00:27:23,167
Get up, father!
Got to get going.

256
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,000
Let me give you a hand.

257
00:27:27,417 --> 00:27:29,417
What’s going on here?

258
00:27:31,751 --> 00:27:35,167
I caught him
without proper passes.

259
00:27:41,667 --> 00:27:45,167
This pass is to Dubovo.
How did you get here?

260
00:27:45,334 --> 00:27:50,417
Comrade Colonel, I rode in a train,
I rode in a car…

261
00:27:53,167 --> 00:27:56,167
He came to visit his son
in the hospital.

262
00:27:56,334 --> 00:27:59,417
Turns out his son’s back
in the army, in Demidovo.

263
00:27:59,667 --> 00:28:01,667
That’s why he’s here.

264
00:28:01,834 --> 00:28:06,834
This is no time to go visiting.
Go home.

265
00:28:09,334 --> 00:28:11,334
Comrade Colonel…

266
00:28:11,501 --> 00:28:14,167
The Germans are in Demidovo.

267
00:28:14,999 --> 00:28:17,751
Go home and wait for your son.

268
00:28:19,250 --> 00:28:22,876
Nazarov!
Fix the old man up for the night.

269
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:26,000
In the morning send him off
in one of our cars.

270
00:28:32,083 --> 00:28:36,167
- Nazarov! What’s your first name?
- Nikolai.

271
00:28:37,167 --> 00:28:40,584
Well, Nikolai, let’s do
what the colonel told you to, right?

272
00:28:42,834 --> 00:28:45,667
Come along, father.
Give me your bundle.

273
00:28:46,918 --> 00:28:48,918
Come on, father!

274
00:28:49,334 --> 00:28:52,334
I told you everything’ll be all right.

275
00:28:55,584 --> 00:29:02,250
- And how’s Vassya Konoplev?
- Got killed near Kalach.

276
00:29:02,417 --> 00:29:04,417
And Petro?

277
00:29:04,584 --> 00:29:11,000
The war’s over for him too. He’s
home. His wife gave him a daughter.

278
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:17,083
Leading a civilian life again.
Got a job, a family…

279
00:29:17,792 --> 00:29:21,667
Like we used to live.
Nothing special.

280
00:29:22,334 --> 00:29:25,000
They amputated his arm
in the hospital.

281
00:29:25,167 --> 00:29:28,751
At least he got out alive.
And Sergeant Korobeinikov?

282
00:29:30,584 --> 00:29:32,584
He’s dead.

283
00:29:34,417 --> 00:29:36,584
How? How did he die?

284
00:29:37,417 --> 00:29:41,584
He was wounded
and Anna dragged him off the field.

285
00:29:41,792 --> 00:29:43,792
A mine got them both.

286
00:29:46,250 --> 00:29:48,417
She was a good kid.

287
00:30:04,584 --> 00:30:07,000
Boris! To bed!

288
00:30:21,584 --> 00:30:23,584
Oh, my God!

289
00:30:25,918 --> 00:30:31,167
If only someone could tell us
whether we ought to sit tight

290
00:30:33,501 --> 00:30:36,250
or leave before it’s too late.

291
00:31:52,667 --> 00:31:56,834
Goderdzi! Goderdzi!

292
00:32:13,584 --> 00:32:16,334
Goderdzi! My son!

293
00:32:40,417 --> 00:32:45,000
I told you, Arkady, I ought not
to come here.

294
00:32:45,417 --> 00:32:47,834
But you say, “Come, come!”

295
00:32:49,250 --> 00:32:54,667
And I went along.
Now where I must go?

296
00:33:04,250 --> 00:33:09,584
Here women shoot,
boys shoot…

297
00:33:10,584 --> 00:33:12,584
Everybody shoots here…

298
00:33:16,667 --> 00:33:19,000
And my son…

299
00:33:21,250 --> 00:33:25,417
is at the front line now.

300
00:33:26,501 --> 00:33:32,000
Where should I go?
To the front line too?

301
00:34:07,083 --> 00:34:08,584
Boris!

302
00:34:09,417 --> 00:34:11,417
Company, everyone outside!

303
00:34:23,250 --> 00:34:24,792
Follow me!

304
00:34:25,584 --> 00:34:27,584
What is it?
What happened?

305
00:34:29,167 --> 00:34:31,792
We’re in for it.
The Germans are advancing!

306
00:34:33,584 --> 00:34:35,584
Where are the Germans?

307
00:34:35,792 --> 00:34:39,000
Make for the station, father,
as fast as you can!

308
00:34:39,417 --> 00:34:46,000
I told you I must not come here.

309
00:34:54,334 --> 00:34:58,751
Don’t go that way!
Turn back! The Germans!

310
00:35:00,834 --> 00:35:05,501
Where are the Germans?
Where to go?

311
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,417
The wheat! The wheat’s burning…

312
00:35:51,167 --> 00:35:57,417
Help! The wheat!
The wheat’s burning!

313
00:36:14,584 --> 00:36:19,250
What are you doing, old man?
You’ve gone out of your mind!

314
00:36:19,417 --> 00:36:22,584
To hell with the wheat!
Run!

315
00:36:24,417 --> 00:36:26,417
Get out of here! Run!

316
00:36:39,501 --> 00:36:41,000
Get down!

317
00:36:45,167 --> 00:36:48,751
Are you mad?
Get down, I tell you!

318
00:37:04,584 --> 00:37:09,000
Make for the forest!
To the forest, quick!

319
00:37:09,334 --> 00:37:15,667
- What about you, Arkady?
- I’ll cover you! Run!

320
00:37:34,584 --> 00:37:36,417
Father!

321
00:37:38,834 --> 00:37:41,667
Beat it, father! I’ll manage…

322
00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:09,083
Leave me, father…
Get going… Leave me!

323
00:38:13,167 --> 00:38:19,584
Don’t be scared, Arkady.
Just a little bit more…

324
00:38:40,834 --> 00:38:45,417
A drink, father!
Water. Just a drop.

325
00:38:45,584 --> 00:38:47,584
Yes, in a minute.

326
00:38:50,584 --> 00:38:53,250
What shall I do, son?

327
00:38:56,667 --> 00:38:58,918
Easy, there you go…

328
00:38:59,083 --> 00:39:05,000
I will find the road
and we’ll be fine.

329
00:39:05,417 --> 00:39:11,834
Everything will be all right, Arkady.
You just wait, my dear boy.

330
00:39:55,918 --> 00:39:57,751
Wait!

331
00:40:19,751 --> 00:40:23,834
Vassiliev has only 640 men left.

332
00:40:23,999 --> 00:40:26,834
We ought to send him
two more batteries.

333
00:40:26,999 --> 00:40:30,000
- Where shall I get them from?
- Can you take them from Petrov?

334
00:40:30,167 --> 00:40:33,417
Petrov’s unit is in danger
of a tank attack.

335
00:40:34,501 --> 00:40:39,667
But Vassiliev has a gully on his left
flank. The tanks can’t get through.

336
00:40:51,167 --> 00:40:55,000
He won’t hear of taking him
into the regiment.

337
00:40:56,584 --> 00:41:00,667
But the old man’s been with us
for days.

338
00:41:00,834 --> 00:41:04,667
He’s as good a fighter as any of us.

339
00:41:06,167 --> 00:41:08,167
Drop the subject.

340
00:41:26,334 --> 00:41:32,501
Lieutenant,
he’ll be my responsibility.

341
00:41:34,584 --> 00:41:37,584
He won’t be in the way.

342
00:41:37,751 --> 00:41:39,751
He’s tough, he is.

343
00:41:46,751 --> 00:41:49,417
Wait, I’ll make another try.

344
00:41:55,167 --> 00:41:57,167
Lieutenant, I’ve already told you…

345
00:41:57,334 --> 00:42:00,167
- What’s wrong?
- Nothing important.

346
00:42:01,250 --> 00:42:06,584
There’s an old Georgian who wants
to be taken into our unit.

347
00:42:07,584 --> 00:42:12,834
I explained it to him,
but he won’t listen.

348
00:42:13,250 --> 00:42:16,834
- Where is he?
- Waiting outside for 3 days.

349
00:42:16,999 --> 00:42:18,751
Tell him to come in.

350
00:42:21,167 --> 00:42:22,667
Go ahead, old man!

351
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:44,501
Why you’re looking so sullen?

352
00:42:47,918 --> 00:42:54,000
Because nobody talks sense here.

353
00:42:55,667 --> 00:43:00,167
All I hear is:
You’re too old,

354
00:43:01,334 --> 00:43:03,751
you’ll have a hard time here.

355
00:43:05,751 --> 00:43:09,250
Young men have easy time here?

356
00:43:09,667 --> 00:43:13,000
She has easy time?

357
00:43:13,667 --> 00:43:20,250
Why they can fight

358
00:43:21,584 --> 00:43:24,417
and I can’t?

359
00:43:28,125 --> 00:43:29,918
How old are you?

360
00:43:31,167 --> 00:43:33,584
It’s none of your business!

361
00:43:33,834 --> 00:43:41,167
My father was 115 years old
when he died.

362
00:43:41,834 --> 00:43:47,834
I explained it to you already.
Suppose you be taken prisoner.

363
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:50,417
The Germans would broadcast
all over the world

364
00:43:50,584 --> 00:43:54,834
that the Bolsheviks
were making old men fight.

365
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:59,834
You keep saying
prisoner, prisoner, prisoner!

366
00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:05,918
I don’t intend to be a prisoner!
Maybe you do?

367
00:44:06,083 --> 00:44:09,250
You’ve no idea how hard

368
00:44:10,501 --> 00:44:12,501
the life of a soldier is.

369
00:44:15,250 --> 00:44:17,000
Let’s wrestle.

370
00:44:17,417 --> 00:44:21,250
If any of you puts me down,

371
00:44:21,417 --> 00:44:25,000
I go home.

372
00:44:28,083 --> 00:44:31,876
This is nothing to laugh about.
I challenge anybody here.

373
00:44:33,083 --> 00:44:35,417
May I try, Comrade General?

374
00:44:35,584 --> 00:44:38,167
Too young.
I cannot fight with a boy.

375
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:41,501
Sure, he’s older. Let’s fight.

376
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:52,417
You don’t have to. I see
you’re brave and strong.

377
00:44:52,584 --> 00:44:55,584
I’m convinced.
You may stay with us.

378
00:44:56,834 --> 00:44:59,167
Good luck, soldier.

379
00:45:35,584 --> 00:45:38,083
Hey, dear man, bring me
some fire wood.

380
00:46:08,918 --> 00:46:10,918
Now bring me some water.

381
00:46:46,584 --> 00:46:49,751
Makharashvili! Where are you going?

382
00:46:50,417 --> 00:46:56,334
- Why are you here?
- I’m here to fight.

383
00:46:56,501 --> 00:46:58,501
How dare you abandon your post?

384
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:01,000
You call that a post?

385
00:47:03,083 --> 00:47:08,250
“Bring wood”, “bring water.”
It’s a post for invalids!

386
00:47:13,083 --> 00:47:17,667
Am I here to be a washerwoman
or a soldier?

387
00:47:17,834 --> 00:47:24,000
You’re undermining discipline.
Go back to your post now!

388
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:27,334
A man has to know how to fight
these days.

389
00:47:27,501 --> 00:47:32,083
No one can teach me
how to fight.

390
00:47:32,501 --> 00:47:36,250
My father fought,
my grandfather fought,

391
00:47:36,417 --> 00:47:42,167
my great-grandfather,
my great-great-grandfather…

392
00:47:42,918 --> 00:47:46,417
Don’t be in a hurry,
you’ll get your share of fighting yet.

393
00:47:46,834 --> 00:47:52,083
I know by heart
how to fight.

394
00:47:52,417 --> 00:47:59,000
Bayonets charge, one, two!
Withdraw bayonets, one , two!

395
00:48:02,083 --> 00:48:06,584
Attention!
Battle stations! Signals!

396
00:48:08,834 --> 00:48:10,167
Forward!

397
00:50:17,999 --> 00:50:20,083
Reveille!

398
00:50:21,250 --> 00:50:25,918
Hey, you awake down there?
It’s Happy New Year!

399
00:50:28,918 --> 00:50:32,000
Stop yelling!
The men are sleeping.

400
00:50:32,667 --> 00:50:36,167
Go away,
be a nice girl, please!

401
00:50:37,334 --> 00:50:43,417
We’ve brought you food,
wine, entertainment.

402
00:50:43,584 --> 00:50:49,000
Be quiet. This is the first sleep
they’ve had in three days.

403
00:50:49,167 --> 00:50:51,417
And what about our New Year’s
party?

404
00:50:51,834 --> 00:50:56,584
I’ve brought wine and presents galore.

405
00:50:56,751 --> 00:50:59,918
Sorry, my dear, that’ll have to wait.

406
00:51:01,501 --> 00:51:04,584
- Are you actors?
- A musical detail from the division.

407
00:51:04,792 --> 00:51:08,501
We’ve been sent here
to give your men a concert

408
00:51:08,709 --> 00:51:11,083
because you distinguished yourselves
in battle.

409
00:51:11,250 --> 00:51:17,083
It’s great.
We’ve been promised a concert.

410
00:51:17,250 --> 00:51:22,667
In the morning we’re performing
for Battalion 3.

411
00:51:23,083 --> 00:51:26,250
Too bad to have you leave
without playing for the boys.

412
00:51:26,417 --> 00:51:29,250
All right, begin.

413
00:51:30,751 --> 00:51:32,667
What shall we begin?

414
00:51:32,834 --> 00:51:34,083
Play.

415
00:51:34,918 --> 00:51:38,334
But who are we to play for?

416
00:51:38,751 --> 00:51:42,000
There’s no audience.

417
00:51:42,167 --> 00:51:43,709
There they are.

418
00:51:45,792 --> 00:51:47,000
But they are all asleep.

419
00:51:47,167 --> 00:51:52,667
A good music one can hear
even in his sleep.

420
00:51:52,834 --> 00:51:56,000
- But, sergeant…
- Stop arguing. Get down here.

421
00:52:12,083 --> 00:52:13,334
What shall we play?

422
00:52:26,083 --> 00:52:30,709
Could you make it a Georgian piece?

423
00:52:33,250 --> 00:52:36,083
Sure we can.

424
00:52:39,709 --> 00:52:41,876
- May we?
- Whenever you’re ready.

425
00:54:58,501 --> 00:55:01,501
TO BERLIN

426
00:55:53,834 --> 00:55:59,834
- What are you doing?
- Waking myself up. Try it.

427
00:56:06,876 --> 00:56:09,000
They’re off to bomb Hitler.

428
00:56:11,417 --> 00:56:12,834
What?

429
00:56:13,250 --> 00:56:16,584
To hell with Hitler!

430
00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:21,417
Nazarov, Lobov, Makharashvili!
You go scouting.

431
00:56:22,417 --> 00:56:24,083
Yes, sergeant!

432
00:56:43,417 --> 00:56:47,501
Careful. There’s no cover here.
Follow me.

433
00:57:52,751 --> 00:57:54,751
What did you find, father?

434
00:57:54,918 --> 00:58:01,667
Good earth.
Rich earth.

435
00:58:11,417 --> 00:58:14,417
Must have spotted us, the bastards!

436
00:58:16,417 --> 00:58:17,667
Listen…

437
00:58:20,501 --> 00:58:22,584
What’s the matter with you?

438
00:58:24,250 --> 00:58:30,000
The earth says
it’s high time…

439
00:58:31,167 --> 00:58:36,667
Spring is here.
High time to…

440
00:58:36,834 --> 00:58:38,167
Sow!

441
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:45,083
- No. First you must…
- Plough!

442
00:58:45,834 --> 00:58:50,250
That’s it. First plough, then sow…

443
00:58:50,417 --> 00:58:56,501
Plough, sow…
Plough, sow…

444
00:59:39,751 --> 00:59:41,209
USSR

445
00:59:54,167 --> 01:00:01,667
Nikolai, come here!
Look… we’re there!

446
01:00:06,334 --> 01:00:12,667
Look, we’re here already.
How do you call it?

447
01:00:18,667 --> 01:00:20,167
Hey, fellows!

448
01:00:24,834 --> 01:00:26,167
Come here!

449
01:00:27,000 --> 01:00:29,834
- Why are you yelling?
- I’m not yelling.

450
01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:36,083
Sergeant,
we’ve reached the state border,

451
01:00:36,250 --> 01:00:39,250
the border of the Soviet Union!

452
01:00:42,834 --> 01:00:44,834
Let’s clean it and set it up.

453
01:01:42,584 --> 01:01:45,667
THE TANKS OF
LIEUTENANT MAKHARASHVILI

454
01:01:45,834 --> 01:01:48,918
WERE THE FIRST
TO CROSS THIS BRIDGE

455
01:01:59,918 --> 01:02:02,417
- Where’s he going?
- Father, where are you going?

456
01:02:10,667 --> 01:02:14,501
The tanks… of Lieutenant…

457
01:02:16,083 --> 01:02:21,250
Ma-kha-ra-shvi-li…

458
01:02:31,834 --> 01:02:36,834
Good boy!
That’s my son Goderdzi!

459
01:02:40,584 --> 01:02:44,667
See, father, he’s here.

460
01:02:47,083 --> 01:02:50,417
My son passed here!

461
01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:54,000
I will find him now!

462
01:02:54,417 --> 01:02:58,834
Good boy!
He is not far away.

463
01:04:12,083 --> 01:04:18,417
Grapevines! How did you ever
get here, my darlings?

464
01:05:09,834 --> 01:05:14,751
How glad I am to see you!

465
01:05:38,667 --> 01:05:40,834
Hello there, sonny…

466
01:05:42,334 --> 01:05:46,250
In the army, you should address
officers by their rank.

467
01:05:46,417 --> 01:05:48,000
I’m a sergeant.

468
01:05:48,542 --> 01:05:51,167
Allow me to address you,
sergeant!

469
01:05:54,250 --> 01:06:01,083
Look, friend, my son is here
somewhere.

470
01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:04,834
I’m looking for him.
He’s a tankman.

471
01:06:04,999 --> 01:06:06,667
What’s his name?

472
01:06:06,834 --> 01:06:12,334
Goderdzi Makharashvili.
Tall, handsome…

473
01:06:13,083 --> 01:06:14,501
In the ranks?

474
01:06:14,667 --> 01:06:18,667
- An officer or a private?
- A lieutenant.

475
01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:21,417
Sorry, don’t know him.

476
01:06:21,584 --> 01:06:23,792
There was something wrong
with the steering gear.

477
01:06:23,959 --> 01:06:26,000
I’ll give it a check run.

478
01:06:26,167 --> 01:06:29,417
Maybe he knows my son.

479
01:06:29,584 --> 01:06:33,083
Listen, I’m trying to find my son.
He is a tankman.

480
01:06:33,334 --> 01:06:37,751
- What’s his name?
- Goderdzi Makharashvili.

481
01:06:38,083 --> 01:06:40,083
No, never heard of him.

482
01:06:41,834 --> 01:06:45,501
- He’s a handsome boy.
- We’re all handsome here.

483
01:06:46,167 --> 01:06:48,167
Yes, you bet you are…

484
01:06:55,751 --> 01:06:58,167
He is a lieutenant.

485
01:06:58,834 --> 01:07:01,667
I don’t know him. There’s no
such guy.

486
01:07:13,334 --> 01:07:14,751
Wait!

487
01:07:15,417 --> 01:07:16,918
Stop!

488
01:07:20,667 --> 01:07:22,667
I said stop!

489
01:07:23,250 --> 01:07:25,667
Are you crazy, man?

490
01:07:25,834 --> 01:07:29,250
It’s you who is crazy!

491
01:07:29,501 --> 01:07:34,751
What are you doing?
These are grapevines!

492
01:07:35,334 --> 01:07:37,334
So what?

493
01:07:37,501 --> 01:07:38,751
You pup!

494
01:07:38,918 --> 01:07:42,667
How dare you? Attention!

495
01:07:42,834 --> 01:07:47,167
Seregin! Take that old man away,
or I don’t know what happens!

496
01:07:49,667 --> 01:07:51,083
Just try to move me!

497
01:07:51,250 --> 01:07:52,417
Go away, father.

498
01:07:56,667 --> 01:07:58,751
Get out of the way, I tell you!

499
01:08:04,167 --> 01:08:05,417
Drive through!

500
01:08:08,417 --> 01:08:13,584
Look what you did!

501
01:08:15,167 --> 01:08:17,167
He hit the man just for nothing!

502
01:08:20,334 --> 01:08:26,083
These are grapevines!
Why don’t you use the road?

503
01:08:30,167 --> 01:08:32,167
Haven’t you seen
what they did to our country?

504
01:08:32,334 --> 01:08:38,167
You the same as them?
You a fascist?

505
01:08:42,918 --> 01:08:44,918
Look, German children.

506
01:08:45,083 --> 01:08:47,834
Shoot them! Shoot them!

507
01:08:47,999 --> 01:08:52,083
Are you taking me
for a bloody Nazi?

508
01:08:53,083 --> 01:08:56,167
Then why do you kill the grapevines?

509
01:08:58,250 --> 01:09:03,417
They are alive.
You hurt them.

510
01:09:05,501 --> 01:09:09,167
You did not plant them.
You did not tend them.

511
01:09:10,000 --> 01:09:13,667
You only eat grapes.

512
01:09:15,584 --> 01:09:20,584
You’re young. You never even
planted a tree in your life.

513
01:09:21,417 --> 01:09:26,250
Yet you kill grapevines.
Shame on you!

514
01:09:27,584 --> 01:09:32,167
This is war,
not a public park.

515
01:09:37,584 --> 01:09:39,584
Drive your tank back!

516
01:10:02,000 --> 01:10:06,417
Why so glum, father?
I say why are you so glum?

517
01:10:10,000 --> 01:10:16,334
I guess I’m tired,
sergeant.

518
01:10:20,250 --> 01:10:22,250
I think and think:

519
01:10:26,584 --> 01:10:31,334
What is my son Goderdzi like now?

520
01:10:36,417 --> 01:10:38,918
He was so good, so kind.

521
01:11:01,918 --> 01:11:07,751
The first two floors
are occupied by the Germans.

522
01:11:07,918 --> 01:11:10,083
Our boys have entrenched
themselves on the third.

523
01:11:10,250 --> 01:11:14,334
We’ve got to wipe out the enemy
and set our boys free.

524
01:11:20,667 --> 01:11:24,000
After me, men! Hooray!

525
01:11:59,334 --> 01:12:03,834
Back up, Georgy! Get away!

526
01:12:28,667 --> 01:12:35,000
Careful! Our men are on the third
floor, don’t forget!

527
01:12:36,834 --> 01:12:39,501
Guys! Don’t be afraid,
I’m coming!

528
01:12:39,667 --> 01:12:42,834
Sure, as long as you’re here,
the rest of us can go home.

529
01:12:43,000 --> 01:12:46,250
What news down below, pals?

530
01:12:46,417 --> 01:12:48,417
Spring has come!

531
01:13:01,000 --> 01:13:02,584
Attention, please!

532
01:13:03,834 --> 01:13:05,834
Attention, all!

533
01:13:07,417 --> 01:13:11,250
In order to avoid
unnecessary bloodshed,

534
01:13:12,250 --> 01:13:14,667
the Commander
of the Soviet Army

535
01:13:14,834 --> 01:13:18,834
proposes that
all German soldiers and officers,

536
01:13:19,000 --> 01:13:23,834
surrounded in this city
and blockaded in houses,

537
01:13:24,000 --> 01:13:26,667
cease fire immediately,

538
01:13:27,959 --> 01:13:30,751
lay down their arms,

539
01:13:31,250 --> 01:13:35,334
raise the white flag
and surrender.

540
01:13:37,667 --> 01:13:40,083
The Soviet High Command

541
01:13:40,250 --> 01:13:44,417
guarantees your safety,

542
01:13:44,584 --> 01:13:48,417
promises to feed you

543
01:13:49,834 --> 01:13:56,167
and to ensure medical aid
to the wounded and sick.

544
01:13:58,083 --> 01:14:02,501
Two hours are given
for considering

545
01:14:03,250 --> 01:14:05,918
this ultimatum.

546
01:14:07,417 --> 01:14:13,000
All who do not surrender within
that time will be wiped out.

547
01:14:14,417 --> 01:14:18,083
It is now 11:30 p.m.,
Moscow time.

548
01:14:19,250 --> 01:14:25,751
April 14, 1945.

549
01:14:26,751 --> 01:14:31,501
The two hours have begun.

550
01:14:32,167 --> 01:14:34,167
Cease fire!

551
01:14:35,834 --> 01:14:38,918
Do they know
they must stop too?

552
01:14:39,167 --> 01:14:40,834
Cease fire!

553
01:14:43,167 --> 01:14:46,667
What are you doing?
Stop!

554
01:15:42,834 --> 01:15:47,584
When I get home,
I’ll climb into bed

555
01:15:51,000 --> 01:15:54,417
and sleep and sleep and sleep.

556
01:15:56,834 --> 01:16:00,417
I don’t intend to announce my coming.

557
01:16:01,751 --> 01:16:04,000
Just appear like a bolt out of the blue.

558
01:16:08,083 --> 01:16:13,250
Slip into the yard
by the back gate,

559
01:16:14,417 --> 01:16:16,918
without anybody seeing me.

560
01:16:21,584 --> 01:16:24,250
But I bet Nyura will see me.

561
01:16:27,584 --> 01:16:31,000
She’s got such sharp eyes,
that sis of mine!

562
01:17:15,834 --> 01:17:20,834
- Are you a Georgian, boy?
- Yes.

563
01:17:21,918 --> 01:17:26,751
- Where are you from?
- Gurdjaani.

564
01:17:27,918 --> 01:17:30,000
Goderdzi, my son!

565
01:17:34,834 --> 01:17:36,834
Who are you?

566
01:17:38,834 --> 01:17:44,417
I’m Georgy, your father!
At last I’ve found you!

567
01:17:52,417 --> 01:17:56,167
How on earth did you ever
get here, father?

568
01:17:56,417 --> 01:18:01,834
I’ll tell you later, son.
I’ll tell you everything.

569
01:18:03,334 --> 01:18:06,000
That’s my son up there!

570
01:18:17,083 --> 01:18:19,584
How’s mother?

571
01:18:19,834 --> 01:18:26,000
Who knows?
She writes that she’s all right.

572
01:18:36,834 --> 01:18:38,834
Goderdzi, my son!

573
01:18:40,751 --> 01:18:42,083
I’m here, father!

574
01:18:42,250 --> 01:18:46,417
See that nothing happens to you now!

575
01:18:48,250 --> 01:18:52,417
Everything’s almost over…

576
01:18:53,667 --> 01:18:56,083
Where’s your tank?

577
01:18:56,250 --> 01:19:03,000
It got hit, father.
Right in front of this building.

578
01:19:03,167 --> 01:19:06,167
Well, you don’t need it anymore.

579
01:19:06,417 --> 01:19:11,751
The war’s almost over.

580
01:19:13,334 --> 01:19:16,000
Only a half hour left
for them to think.

581
01:19:16,334 --> 01:19:21,334
Don’t even give a man a chance
to see his son.

582
01:19:25,250 --> 01:19:27,918
Father! Father!

583
01:19:29,918 --> 01:19:32,167
I’m here, son!

584
01:19:33,083 --> 01:19:38,501
I’ll bet it’s raining in Alazani now.

585
01:19:39,501 --> 01:19:43,000
What could be better than a spring
shower!

586
01:19:44,501 --> 01:19:47,501
How is our vineyard getting on?

587
01:19:49,417 --> 01:19:54,250
The vines you planted are doing well.

588
01:19:56,250 --> 01:20:00,334
They make fine wine.

589
01:20:14,584 --> 01:20:17,000
They’ve started firing again!

590
01:20:20,751 --> 01:20:22,000
Goderdzi!

591
01:20:24,417 --> 01:20:26,250
Get down, Makharashvili!

592
01:20:32,334 --> 01:20:33,751
Goderdzi!

593
01:21:06,334 --> 01:21:08,501
Goderdzi, my son!

594
01:21:11,501 --> 01:21:13,000
Follow me!

595
01:21:26,834 --> 01:21:28,834
Is anyone left there?

596
01:21:30,167 --> 01:21:32,834
Follow me!
Come on, fellows!

597
01:21:40,834 --> 01:21:42,834
How can I bear it, son?

598
01:22:34,000 --> 01:22:38,834
Goderdzi, my son!

599
01:23:03,918 --> 01:23:05,584
Father!

600
01:23:34,334 --> 01:23:38,834
How tall you’ve grown, my son!

601
01:23:44,250 --> 01:23:48,250
How big you are!

602
01:24:06,000 --> 01:24:08,209
What shall I tell your mother?

603
01:24:57,250 --> 01:25:01,834
THE TANKS OF Lt. MAKHARASHVILI,
HERO OF THE SOVIET UNION,

604
01:25:02,000 --> 01:25:06,667
WERE THE FIRST
TO CROSS THIS BRIDGE

605
01:26:22,000 --> 01:26:25,000
WESTWARD BOUND!

606
01:26:32,417 --> 01:26:34,417
FORWARD, IN THE NAME OF
OUR MOTHERLAND!

607
01:26:38,459 --> 01:26:43,000
The End
