THE HOURGLASS SANATORIUM

2
00:01:22,833 --> 00:01:26,586
WRITTEN BY WOJCIECH J. HAS
BASED ON A NOVEL BY BRUNO SCHULZ

3
00:04:37,861 --> 00:04:39,320
We've almost arrived.

4
00:04:41,699 --> 00:04:43,158
How will I get there?

5
00:04:46,036 --> 00:04:50,040
You'll find the way.
You don't need help.

6
00:08:12,826 --> 00:08:16,287
I've come a long way.
I booked a room by telegram.

7
00:08:17,414 --> 00:08:18,748
Who can I see?

8
00:08:20,250 --> 00:08:21,334
Everybody's sleeping.

9
00:08:21,418 --> 00:08:23,586
I'll check you in
once the doctor wakes up.

10
00:08:24,796 --> 00:08:29,133
Sleeping? It's still way before evening.

11
00:08:33,972 --> 00:08:36,683
They sleep all the time.
You didn't know?

12
00:08:39,937 --> 00:08:42,230
Besides, night never comes here.

13
00:08:45,108 --> 00:08:47,527
You can wait downstairs.

14
00:08:55,994 --> 00:08:57,328
In the restaurant.

15
00:10:41,475 --> 00:10:42,934
The doctor will see you now.

16
00:10:43,727 --> 00:10:44,644
Where is he?

17
00:11:01,828 --> 00:11:04,330
We received your telegram yesterday.

18
00:11:06,083 --> 00:11:11,338
We sent our coach to the station.
You must've arrived on a different train.

19
00:11:12,714 --> 00:11:13,840
The station?

20
00:11:14,466 --> 00:11:17,844
We don't have
a good train connection here.

21
00:11:18,637 --> 00:11:20,305
How are you feeling?

22
00:11:25,394 --> 00:11:26,895
Is my father alive?

23
00:11:30,315 --> 00:11:31,733
Of course.

24
00:11:33,860 --> 00:11:38,906
I mean to an extent
allowed by the situation.

25
00:11:38,990 --> 00:11:40,032
You know…

26
00:11:42,327 --> 00:11:46,581
just as I do,
that from the perspective of your home…

27
00:11:47,833 --> 00:11:50,669
your homeland…

28
00:11:55,924 --> 00:11:57,634
your father is dead.

29
00:12:01,096 --> 00:12:02,639
This cannot be fully reversed.

30
00:12:02,723 --> 00:12:07,728
His death casts a shadow
on his existence here.

31
00:12:10,272 --> 00:12:12,899
But he doesn't know or suspect?

32
00:12:13,650 --> 00:12:15,234
Don't worry.

33
00:12:18,155 --> 00:12:20,240
Our patients don't suspect anything.

34
00:12:22,325 --> 00:12:23,993
They can't.

35
00:12:32,836 --> 00:12:36,756
You probably want to see your father now.
I'll take you there.

36
00:12:42,888 --> 00:12:48,560
We reserved a bed for you in his room,
as you requested.

37
00:13:28,558 --> 00:13:33,145
The trick is that we moved back time.

38
00:13:35,148 --> 00:13:39,235
Time is late here by an interval…

39
00:13:41,071 --> 00:13:44,491
which I can't precisely define.

40
00:13:44,574 --> 00:13:48,327
It all boils down to relativity.

41
00:13:51,373 --> 00:13:55,043
Here, your father's death
hasn't occurred yet.

42
00:13:55,418 --> 00:13:59,296
But he met with his death…

43
00:14:02,634 --> 00:14:03,843
in your country.

44
00:14:09,641 --> 00:14:11,476
So my father is dead.

45
00:14:14,020 --> 00:14:18,024
Or is close to death.
- No, no. You don't understand.

46
00:14:18,733 --> 00:14:22,069
We reactivate past time
with all its possibilities.

47
00:14:22,153 --> 00:14:25,489
Including recovery.

48
00:14:26,700 --> 00:14:30,787
We let our patients sleep
for a long time.

49
00:14:32,163 --> 00:14:37,918
We spare their vital energy.
They have nothing better to do anyway.

50
00:14:41,464 --> 00:14:43,632
Why don't you lie down?

51
00:14:45,886 --> 00:14:51,308
There's nothing more… you can do now.

52
00:14:58,773 --> 00:15:00,107
Goodbye.

53
00:15:04,446 --> 00:15:05,989
Goodbye.

54
00:19:25,748 --> 00:19:28,167
I came to talk to you.

55
00:19:32,505 --> 00:19:33,464
Go on.

56
00:19:34,048 --> 00:19:40,888
Why are you spreading lies
and gossip about Father?

57
00:19:41,347 --> 00:19:44,183
What lies?
- I know you're behind them.

58
00:19:45,018 --> 00:19:47,228
No. I didn't lie.

59
00:19:51,774 --> 00:19:58,739
You remember how he went
missing for many days.

60
00:19:59,282 --> 00:20:00,700
He avoided us.

61
00:20:01,201 --> 00:20:05,455
Who knows whether
he's still alive somewhere.

62
00:20:07,415 --> 00:20:11,043
I need to know.
I have to know the truth.

63
00:20:11,127 --> 00:20:15,297
Stop tormenting me.
It's hard to communicate with him.

64
00:20:15,381 --> 00:20:19,718
How can I cope with everything myself?

65
00:20:20,386 --> 00:20:25,140
How can I answer questions
which God keeps asking me?

66
00:20:25,225 --> 00:20:29,938
It's too much for me.
His complaints terrify me.

67
00:20:30,688 --> 00:20:34,024
Don't cry.
- I have a migraine.

68
00:20:35,860 --> 00:20:37,778
You won't go to school today.

69
00:20:39,530 --> 00:20:41,990
To school? Mum…

70
00:20:42,784 --> 00:20:45,578
I'm not a little boy anymore.

71
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:50,583
Yes, you are.
You've got ink on your hands.

72
00:20:50,667 --> 00:20:55,338
Your knees are bruised.
You're a naughty, unruly boy.

73
00:21:01,010 --> 00:21:03,387
You hang out with God knows who.

74
00:21:03,471 --> 00:21:07,725
Go. Wake those good-for-nothings.
It's time to open the shop.

75
00:21:08,935 --> 00:21:11,103
But I'm sure—
- Stop tormenting me.

76
00:21:11,187 --> 00:21:16,400
I told you that your father
travels around as a salesman.

77
00:21:16,943 --> 00:21:20,780
You know perfectly well
that sometimes he returns home at night

78
00:21:21,572 --> 00:21:25,617
only to go off even further again
before dawn.

79
00:21:26,494 --> 00:21:28,829
I'm sure he'll come back.

80
00:22:42,528 --> 00:22:45,614
You're tossing and turning
like a fish out of water.

81
00:22:45,698 --> 00:22:49,201
You sleep a bit, doze off a bit…
- Yawn a bit.

82
00:22:49,285 --> 00:22:51,745
And you rest again.

83
00:22:53,164 --> 00:22:57,543
You should learn wisdom
from an ant, lazybones.

84
00:22:58,461 --> 00:23:01,505
An ant? Go to hell.

85
00:23:02,131 --> 00:23:08,929
That ant of yours knows
no teacher, boss or shegetz.

86
00:23:09,806 --> 00:23:14,185
And it's doing fine.
- What's he talking about?

87
00:23:15,228 --> 00:23:21,025
I walked the fields of a lazy man.

88
00:23:23,861 --> 00:23:29,783
I walked the vineyards of a stupid man.

89
00:23:29,867 --> 00:23:34,037
Where is that from?
Our Lord didn't say that.

90
00:23:34,122 --> 00:23:40,586
Don't listen to it!
- Nettles grew over everything.

91
00:23:40,670 --> 00:23:44,382
Thorns covered His land.

92
00:23:44,841 --> 00:23:49,220
And the stone wall collapsed to pieces.

93
00:24:18,416 --> 00:24:21,585
Clap your hands,

94
00:24:22,295 --> 00:24:29,176
and call out His name while rejoicing.

95
00:24:29,260 --> 00:24:32,012
Call out His name

96
00:24:32,096 --> 00:24:38,393
to the sounds of songs and trumpets.

97
00:25:27,443 --> 00:25:32,281
<i>Praise Him with harps.
praise Him with lyres.</i>

98
00:25:32,365 --> 00:25:34,867
<i>Praise Him with the drums and dancing.</i>

99
00:25:35,952 --> 00:25:38,621
<i>Praise Him
with stringed instruments and horns.</i>

100
00:25:39,830 --> 00:25:42,207
<i>Praise Him with the cymbals.</i>

101
00:25:42,750 --> 00:25:45,210
<i>Praise him with loud clanging cymbals.</i>

102
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,547
<i>Let everything that has breath
praise the Lord.</i>

103
00:25:49,006 --> 00:25:50,549
<i>Hallelujah.</i>

104
00:25:51,050 --> 00:25:53,635
<i>Clap your hands and sing.</i>

105
00:25:54,470 --> 00:25:55,929
<i>Sing.</i>

106
00:25:57,014 --> 00:25:58,807
<i>Sing wisely.</i>

107
00:26:20,288 --> 00:26:24,000
In a dream, he saw a ladder…

108
00:26:25,501 --> 00:26:28,045
that reaches from earth to heaven.

109
00:26:28,129 --> 00:26:33,050
And God's angels
were going up and down on it.

110
00:27:22,183 --> 00:27:23,517
Is it possible?

111
00:27:24,060 --> 00:27:28,230
It's our little Józef!

112
00:27:28,981 --> 00:27:33,276
Did you get lost on your way to school?

113
00:27:34,820 --> 00:27:35,695
Well?

114
00:27:37,239 --> 00:27:41,076
Rascals! They're everywhere.

115
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:44,204
When I want to go down
to get bread in the morning,

116
00:27:45,122 --> 00:27:48,166
I can't even…

117
00:27:51,712 --> 00:27:53,755
open the door.

118
00:27:53,839 --> 00:27:58,718
They squeeze through cracks.

119
00:27:58,803 --> 00:28:01,096
And try to get into the kitchen.

120
00:28:01,180 --> 00:28:03,182
They ogle me.

121
00:28:06,769 --> 00:28:10,564
They can hardly wag their tails.

122
00:28:19,448 --> 00:28:22,325
They're overjoyed when they see a fire.

123
00:28:22,410 --> 00:28:25,037
They clap their hands
and dance like savages.

124
00:28:25,121 --> 00:28:30,501
They're hopeless at putting out fire.
But they like to celebrate.

125
00:28:30,584 --> 00:28:34,963
Who are you talking about?
- Those idle firemen.

126
00:28:35,047 --> 00:28:41,219
They get lazy in autumn.
They sleep while standing.

127
00:28:41,846 --> 00:28:46,308
I think you're prejudiced.
They're nice boys.

128
00:29:00,489 --> 00:29:04,159
An old stove-fitter told me…

129
00:29:06,203 --> 00:29:08,205
that when he repairs chimneys,

130
00:29:08,622 --> 00:29:12,917
he finds them attached
to the smoke vent,

131
00:29:13,002 --> 00:29:14,962
motionless like the larvae.

132
00:29:16,839 --> 00:29:20,717
They sleep like that,
drunk on raspberry juice.

133
00:29:21,510 --> 00:29:25,263
And they whine in their sleep,
"Sugar, sugar."

134
00:29:30,060 --> 00:29:34,022
If I glance at one of them,

135
00:29:34,106 --> 00:29:40,570
his face swells and becomes
obscenely red like a turkey.

136
00:29:42,031 --> 00:29:45,826
I heard that it's a way
of strengthening the inner self.

137
00:29:45,910 --> 00:29:50,956
And rejuvenating colours
when firemen eject fireworks,

138
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,584
rockets and Bengali lights.

139
00:29:54,001 --> 00:29:55,961
I won't give them any juice anyway.

140
00:29:56,045 --> 00:29:58,630
I didn't ruin my complexion…

141
00:30:00,382 --> 00:30:03,760
hovering over the stove to make it,
so those rascals could drink it.

142
00:30:04,678 --> 00:30:06,096
Unfortunately, Adela,

143
00:30:06,180 --> 00:30:10,392
you never understood things
which go beyond the mundane.

144
00:30:11,310 --> 00:30:12,602
Look.

145
00:30:19,819 --> 00:30:23,864
Is it possible to grow hair
extending all the way to the ground?

146
00:30:29,495 --> 00:30:33,790
You look so different.
Just wonderful!

147
00:30:34,250 --> 00:30:36,293
The captain of rascals!

148
00:30:39,338 --> 00:30:43,925
"I, Anna Csillag, born in Moravia,
had poor hair growth."

149
00:30:44,009 --> 00:30:45,468
I wish I had hair like that.

150
00:30:49,306 --> 00:30:51,558
Would you like some water with juice?

151
00:30:53,644 --> 00:30:56,104
With raspberry juice.
- No, thanks.

152
00:30:57,314 --> 00:30:58,732
Too bad.

153
00:30:59,441 --> 00:31:05,530
Her poor hair growth
was divine retribution.

154
00:31:05,614 --> 00:31:10,285
But prayers and penance
took the curse off her.

155
00:31:10,369 --> 00:31:13,246
She was graced with enlightenment.

156
00:31:13,330 --> 00:31:19,961
She received signs
and made this miraculous remedy.

157
00:31:21,505 --> 00:31:23,089
Look.

158
00:31:24,758 --> 00:31:30,889
These are her brothers,
cousins and brothers-in-law.

159
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:33,099
Who's he?

160
00:31:33,183 --> 00:31:39,022
This one? Another brother-in-law.
She made a whole town happy.

161
00:31:40,357 --> 00:31:41,483
Really?

162
00:31:47,031 --> 00:31:47,906
Let's see.

163
00:31:47,990 --> 00:31:49,741
"Elsa. The fluid with a swan."

164
00:31:51,368 --> 00:31:56,623
It's a balm for all afflictions.
It works wonders.

165
00:31:56,707 --> 00:31:58,458
Where did you get this book?

166
00:31:59,043 --> 00:32:03,964
It's been here the whole time,
scattered around.

167
00:32:07,301 --> 00:32:12,681
"Smoke all you want."
"Sexual Neurasthenia."

168
00:32:12,765 --> 00:32:13,724
"Gramophones."

169
00:32:15,851 --> 00:32:16,935
You silly thing.

170
00:32:17,019 --> 00:32:20,981
We use its pages to wrap meat
and your father's lunch.

171
00:32:28,322 --> 00:32:31,325
It's degradation of an original book.

172
00:32:50,052 --> 00:32:53,764
You're late, my dear friend.
There's no more juice.

173
00:32:53,847 --> 00:32:57,767
I have some rose preserve.
It's not bad.

174
00:32:59,478 --> 00:33:00,520
Adela!

175
00:33:01,146 --> 00:33:03,690
Try it.
- Thank you.

176
00:33:05,275 --> 00:33:09,153
It's not a preserve.
- So what? It tastes sweet.

177
00:33:15,744 --> 00:33:17,036
Is your name Jakub?

178
00:33:18,789 --> 00:33:22,793
No, I'm Józef. Jakub is my father.

179
00:33:22,876 --> 00:33:25,670
I see. That's even better.

180
00:33:29,174 --> 00:33:32,969
Can you come out?
We can't talk like this.

181
00:33:34,972 --> 00:33:37,933
Excuse me.
- It's all right.

182
00:33:51,238 --> 00:33:56,284
I have a valuable delivery.
Where can I find your father?

183
00:33:56,368 --> 00:33:57,994
I'm looking for him myself.

184
00:33:58,871 --> 00:34:03,458
Allow me to introduce
Honduras and Nicaragua.

185
00:34:03,542 --> 00:34:04,960
Come closer.

186
00:34:12,801 --> 00:34:14,010
It's spotted.
- Spotted?

187
00:34:14,094 --> 00:34:17,847
That's right. It's very perishable.

188
00:34:19,558 --> 00:34:22,310
Birds of paradise?
- Not only them.

189
00:34:22,394 --> 00:34:26,648
For hatching, it's best
to let Belgian hens sit on them.

190
00:34:26,732 --> 00:34:28,859
Or you can do it yourself.

191
00:34:32,696 --> 00:34:34,989
I think I see your father.

192
00:34:37,284 --> 00:34:38,493
Over there!

193
00:34:40,579 --> 00:34:44,749
Don't you think
he's behaving in a strange way?

194
00:34:46,543 --> 00:34:48,127
He's demonstrating.

195
00:35:27,376 --> 00:35:28,585
Father!

196
00:35:30,879 --> 00:35:31,754
Father…

197
00:35:31,839 --> 00:35:37,386
You should beware of things
like narrow-mindedness,

198
00:35:37,469 --> 00:35:41,306
pedantry and blind literalism.

199
00:35:41,390 --> 00:35:45,644
Have you noticed that in some books,

200
00:35:45,727 --> 00:35:48,730
flocks of swallows
are flying between the verses?

201
00:35:48,814 --> 00:35:51,274
Stanzas of swallows.

202
00:35:51,358 --> 00:35:55,153
You should learn to read
from the flight of these birds.

203
00:35:55,237 --> 00:35:56,196
Father!

204
00:35:57,281 --> 00:36:01,159
I have to tell you something.
It's a secret. I found an original.

205
00:36:01,243 --> 00:36:02,994
An original?
- Yes.

206
00:36:04,538 --> 00:36:06,248
Look for yourself.

207
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:11,545
It's worthless!

208
00:36:11,628 --> 00:36:15,131
It's a book!
- It's just a myth, my son.

209
00:36:15,215 --> 00:36:18,676
A book is a myth
we believe in when we're young.

210
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:23,765
We stop treating it seriously
as we get older.

211
00:36:23,849 --> 00:36:30,814
Books live a borrowed life.

212
00:36:31,273 --> 00:36:36,569
Every book has a moment

213
00:36:36,653 --> 00:36:43,660
when it soars into the air
like a phoenix with its pages on fire!

214
00:36:44,536 --> 00:36:45,912
Look.

215
00:36:54,338 --> 00:36:59,176
And we love them for that moment.

216
00:36:59,259 --> 00:37:04,931
But then, they turn to ashes.

217
00:37:05,015 --> 00:37:06,224
Thank you.

218
00:37:06,808 --> 00:37:12,438
Why doesn't anybody offer for a goldfinch?

219
00:37:15,025 --> 00:37:16,943
Where?

220
00:37:20,072 --> 00:37:21,782
It's fresh!

221
00:37:22,783 --> 00:37:26,119
"A book is a myth, my son."

222
00:37:26,203 --> 00:37:28,955
Here you go.

223
00:37:35,462 --> 00:37:37,839
"It soars into the air like a phoenix."

224
00:37:58,402 --> 00:37:59,861
Hyderabad.

225
00:38:00,946 --> 00:38:02,238
Guatemala.

226
00:38:03,115 --> 00:38:04,199
Tasmania.

227
00:38:04,950 --> 00:38:06,326
San Domingo.

228
00:38:07,369 --> 00:38:08,995
Sierra Leone.

229
00:38:11,164 --> 00:38:15,960
Labrador, Barbados, Trinidad, El Salvador,

230
00:38:16,044 --> 00:38:19,172
Borneo, Sumatra, Pernambuco.

231
00:38:20,882 --> 00:38:21,966
Hiporabundia.

232
00:38:22,759 --> 00:38:27,472
You're talking nonsense.
You could say "Panfibras."

233
00:38:30,517 --> 00:38:33,686
Hale'iwa, Abracadabra.

234
00:38:38,442 --> 00:38:41,069
Why do I get the feeling
that I've been there before?

235
00:38:42,946 --> 00:38:44,322
A long time ago.

236
00:38:45,907 --> 00:38:51,954
What if… we know all landscapes
that we come across in life?

237
00:38:53,874 --> 00:38:57,878
Can anything new happen?

238
00:38:58,670 --> 00:39:00,380
Something we can't sense?

239
00:39:37,918 --> 00:39:39,294
Do you hear me?

240
00:39:42,089 --> 00:39:44,925
I want to know
if all this could have happened.

241
00:39:47,010 --> 00:39:48,428
Answer me.

242
00:39:50,097 --> 00:39:52,432
Did it happen or not?

243
00:39:54,976 --> 00:39:56,268
Yes and no.

244
00:39:57,437 --> 00:40:01,941
There are some things
that can't fully happen.

245
00:40:02,025 --> 00:40:07,238
They are too grand and magnificent
to fit into an event.

246
00:40:08,824 --> 00:40:12,869
They just try to happen.

247
00:40:12,953 --> 00:40:16,581
Tell me if they really exist.

248
00:40:51,575 --> 00:40:52,951
She did exist.

249
00:40:54,661 --> 00:40:56,829
And nothing can take away my certainty.

250
00:41:54,679 --> 00:41:55,805
Don't be afraid.

251
00:41:57,140 --> 00:41:58,307
She can't hear us.

252
00:41:59,684 --> 00:42:02,770
It's my dead mother. She lives here.

253
00:42:03,522 --> 00:42:09,110
She's inhabited by ghosts,
phantoms, larvae and chrysalises.

254
00:42:14,032 --> 00:42:15,783
Helpless and naive,

255
00:42:15,867 --> 00:42:19,036
she takes them into her dream
and sleeps with them.

256
00:42:19,913 --> 00:42:23,666
She wakes up half-conscious at dawn
and remembers nothing.

257
00:42:24,376 --> 00:42:26,419
That's why she's so sad.

258
00:42:27,128 --> 00:42:30,840
She has to live so many lives.

259
00:42:33,176 --> 00:42:36,304
Do you know a story
that time cannot change?

260
00:42:37,847 --> 00:42:42,601
There is one that you haven't heard.

261
00:42:43,311 --> 00:42:45,980
It belongs to the night.

262
00:42:46,606 --> 00:42:49,650
Will you find the patience
to listen to it?

263
00:42:52,696 --> 00:42:58,493
Somebody will walk across the sky,
cuddling a baby in a coat.

264
00:42:59,619 --> 00:43:03,331
Constantly on the way,
on an endless journey.

265
00:43:04,165 --> 00:43:06,750
This person will pass us with long steps.

266
00:43:07,794 --> 00:43:09,378
That's what's going to happen.

267
00:43:10,338 --> 00:43:14,091
Over and over again.

268
00:43:19,097 --> 00:43:22,600
Bianca, you can count on me!
Till the last drop of blood!

269
00:43:31,693 --> 00:43:32,694
Well?

270
00:43:34,821 --> 00:43:36,155
It's a riddle.

271
00:43:37,032 --> 00:43:39,451
What about her?
- Her?

272
00:43:41,453 --> 00:43:43,121
She's all grey.

273
00:43:44,164 --> 00:43:48,585
The touch of her hand
must be beyond imagination.

274
00:43:48,668 --> 00:43:50,753
What did you see there?

275
00:43:52,339 --> 00:43:56,176
Something colourful,
colonial, and terrifying.

276
00:43:57,260 --> 00:44:01,013
Abductions, pursuits, betrayals.

277
00:44:01,598 --> 00:44:06,269
It's a story about an abducted princess
who was exchanged.

278
00:44:06,353 --> 00:44:08,313
You're making it up.

279
00:44:12,108 --> 00:44:13,317
Java.

280
00:44:14,235 --> 00:44:15,444
Sumatra.

281
00:44:16,154 --> 00:44:17,280
Borneo.

282
00:44:18,156 --> 00:44:20,867
I can appoint you as co-regent.

283
00:44:21,701 --> 00:44:23,035
Anonymously, of course.

284
00:44:23,745 --> 00:44:26,914
Together with the stamp album,
we'll form a triumvirate.

285
00:44:26,998 --> 00:44:31,669
We'll be responsible
for this unsolved affair.

286
00:44:32,337 --> 00:44:34,797
With the stamp album?

287
00:44:34,881 --> 00:44:39,010
What a naive question.
It's a universal book.

288
00:44:39,094 --> 00:44:41,221
A compendium of knowledge
about human life,

289
00:44:41,304 --> 00:44:43,848
containing allusions and understatements.

290
00:44:44,599 --> 00:44:51,272
This story will be interspersed
with dashes, ellipses and sighs.

291
00:44:52,691 --> 00:44:55,777
It requires a bit of intelligence
and imagination.

292
00:44:55,860 --> 00:45:00,114
Your words are delirious,
ridiculous, insane.

293
00:45:00,198 --> 00:45:05,119
I was fond of you, Rudolf,
because you own this album.

294
00:45:05,203 --> 00:45:08,664
Now your outbursts of envy put me off.

295
00:45:10,291 --> 00:45:12,751
Don't forget that you're dependent on me.

296
00:45:16,673 --> 00:45:18,549
I have to get to the other side.

297
00:45:33,481 --> 00:45:37,568
I know.
Her father is a ship's doctor.

298
00:45:38,445 --> 00:45:41,322
A small steamboat
with wheels at the sides

299
00:45:41,406 --> 00:45:44,283
is waiting for her
every night at the pier.

300
00:45:44,701 --> 00:45:48,830
Its lights are off.
- Don't go there. I have a bad feeling.

301
00:45:50,290 --> 00:45:55,128
Don't worry.
I may seem excited, but I have my fears.

302
00:45:55,628 --> 00:45:58,756
Won't it be safer
to look through the stamp album?

303
00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:01,551
You haven't seen New Mexico.

304
00:46:02,302 --> 00:46:05,680
Remember that there is no final Mexico.

305
00:46:05,764 --> 00:46:08,141
Behind every Mexico, there is a new one.

306
00:48:53,014 --> 00:48:55,516
They only seem dead.

307
00:48:56,434 --> 00:48:58,894
They don't have to breathe
for a longer period of time.

308
00:48:58,978 --> 00:49:03,524
These ugly creatures
won't be characters in novels.

309
00:49:04,984 --> 00:49:08,445
They're just a makeshift creation,
a one-time thing.

310
00:49:09,530 --> 00:49:13,867
They were caught at a moment
when their obsession,

311
00:49:13,952 --> 00:49:15,536
their madness was real.

312
00:49:15,620 --> 00:49:22,084
Skilfully prepared, it became
the core of their new existence.

313
00:49:23,836 --> 00:49:30,634
A new man was created
in the image of a mannequin.

314
00:49:32,095 --> 00:49:36,808
This is anarchist Luccheni,
assassin of Empress Elisabeth.

315
00:49:50,947 --> 00:49:55,159
And this is Dreyfus next to Draga,
the demonic Queen of Serbia.

316
00:49:56,285 --> 00:49:58,412
Edison and Bismarck.

317
00:49:59,247 --> 00:50:00,998
"Leatherstocking."

318
00:50:02,959 --> 00:50:08,172
This is a young genius,
the pride and hope of his family.

319
00:50:08,256 --> 00:50:11,425
Addiction to masturbation
ruined his life, however.

320
00:50:11,509 --> 00:50:14,762
Unfortunately, they're not authentic.

321
00:50:16,973 --> 00:50:21,852
But we put a lot of effort
into making them look good.

322
00:50:21,936 --> 00:50:25,439
Their faces are pale,

323
00:50:25,523 --> 00:50:28,776
flushed from the illness they died of.

324
00:50:33,740 --> 00:50:39,036
Now take a look at Emperor Franz Joseph.

325
00:50:39,871 --> 00:50:45,543
Wrinkles on his face
make him look like he's smiling.

326
00:50:45,626 --> 00:50:47,544
But when you come closer,

327
00:50:47,628 --> 00:50:52,215
you see that his smile is just a grimace
of bitterness and terseness.

328
00:50:52,592 --> 00:50:55,219
He had a younger brother,

329
00:50:55,303 --> 00:50:57,722
so different spiritually
and ideologically.

330
00:50:57,805 --> 00:51:02,309
This unfortunate antagonist,
disadvantaged by birth,

331
00:51:02,393 --> 00:51:08,232
was Archduke Maximilian.

332
00:51:09,650 --> 00:51:15,364
The emperor loved him secretly,
but planned to get rid of him.

333
00:51:15,448 --> 00:51:19,577
He appointed him commander
of the Levantine Ship Squadron,

334
00:51:19,660 --> 00:51:21,662
hoping that he'd go under.

335
00:51:21,746 --> 00:51:28,169
Later he signed a secret alliance
with Napoleon III.

336
00:51:28,961 --> 00:51:30,045
That's him.

337
00:51:33,508 --> 00:51:38,179
He used deception to involve Maximilian
in the Mexican military intervention.

338
00:51:38,304 --> 00:51:44,518
This creative young man
renounced his Habsburg title

339
00:51:44,602 --> 00:51:48,606
only to ride aboard
the French liner "Le Cid"

340
00:51:48,689 --> 00:51:51,942
right into…

341
00:51:53,945 --> 00:51:54,946
a trap.

342
00:51:55,530 --> 00:51:59,492
Some sources say he was just a cousin.

343
00:52:00,409 --> 00:52:03,829
Others that he was never born.

344
00:52:03,913 --> 00:52:07,082
He was conjectured from the fears
and hallucinations the emperor

345
00:52:07,166 --> 00:52:08,625
experienced while sleeping.

346
00:52:09,877 --> 00:52:16,008
We had problems putting him back together

347
00:52:16,092 --> 00:52:20,137
after his execution in Vera Cruz.

348
00:52:20,221 --> 00:52:23,766
Unfortunately,
he still suffers from amnesia.

349
00:52:23,850 --> 00:52:28,271
I had to teach him everything
about his life again.

350
00:52:28,354 --> 00:52:34,818
But my only success is that at the sound
of the name of Emperor, Franz Joseph…

351
00:52:38,239 --> 00:52:39,698
he draws his sword.

352
00:52:46,831 --> 00:52:50,626
He wounded Victor Emmanuel.

353
00:52:51,502 --> 00:52:54,755
The latter didn't manage to get out
of his way quickly enough.

354
00:53:05,474 --> 00:53:06,725
Bianca…

355
00:53:07,727 --> 00:53:08,853
and Maximilian?

356
00:53:28,497 --> 00:53:30,123
It's a simple mechanical trick.

357
00:53:30,208 --> 00:53:33,961
When wound up,
he moves and acts like a live person.

358
00:54:07,078 --> 00:54:08,079
Let go of me!

359
00:54:18,798 --> 00:54:21,842
A simple mechanical trick. Yeah, right!

360
00:54:22,593 --> 00:54:24,261
A cynic in the tropics.

361
00:54:24,887 --> 00:54:26,972
No, a tropical cynic.

362
00:54:28,307 --> 00:54:30,851
And Rudolf said
I exaggerated and made things up.

363
00:54:35,106 --> 00:54:39,860
They should take their medicine
and be in bed by now.

364
00:54:39,944 --> 00:54:43,530
It's not good to keep them
on stands for so long.

365
00:54:46,909 --> 00:54:48,493
I can smell curare.

366
00:54:50,621 --> 00:54:56,084
Would you like to see
my collection of weapons?

367
00:54:56,585 --> 00:54:59,504
So my intuition was right after all.

368
00:54:59,588 --> 00:55:04,801
Under the cover of law and order,
hair-raising things are happening here.

369
00:55:06,512 --> 00:55:08,514
Will you tell me who Bianca is?

370
00:55:12,435 --> 00:55:13,561
Well…

371
00:55:15,187 --> 00:55:17,063
Her mother was a Creole.

372
00:55:17,148 --> 00:55:20,317
Archduke Maximilian
lovingly called her Conchita.

373
00:55:20,401 --> 00:55:26,073
She went down in history under
that name, through the back door.

374
00:55:26,490 --> 00:55:27,699
Her mother?
- Yes.

375
00:55:27,783 --> 00:55:29,284
You mean grandmother?
- No.

376
00:55:29,368 --> 00:55:30,952
No, it was her mother.
- Yes.

377
00:55:31,620 --> 00:55:37,083
After Maximilian's downfall,
she took her daughter to Paris.

378
00:55:37,168 --> 00:55:39,128
She lived on a widow's pension.

379
00:55:39,587 --> 00:55:44,925
That's where history loses track
of our touching character.

380
00:55:45,009 --> 00:55:47,720
Allow me to finish for you.

381
00:55:48,304 --> 00:55:51,056
It's confidential! State secrets!

382
00:55:51,140 --> 00:55:54,726
Keep calm and control yourself.

383
00:56:04,612 --> 00:56:06,488
100,000 pesos.

384
00:56:08,949 --> 00:56:14,454
My business is not going well.
It's an expensive project, as you can see.

385
00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:22,838
In 1900, a Mrs de V,
a woman of exotic beauty,

386
00:56:22,922 --> 00:56:26,091
with her daughter and husband,
all having fake passports,

387
00:56:26,175 --> 00:56:27,843
leave France and go to Austria.

388
00:56:27,927 --> 00:56:33,682
They get arrested in Salzburg,
while changing trains to Vienna.

389
00:56:34,183 --> 00:56:39,646
After checking his fake passport,
Mr de V, surprisingly, is free to go.

390
00:56:39,730 --> 00:56:43,817
But he does nothing
to get his wife and daughter released.

391
00:56:43,901 --> 00:56:47,362
That very day he goes back to France
and is never seen again.

392
00:56:48,489 --> 00:56:50,157
"And is never seen again."

393
00:56:50,241 --> 00:56:54,954
I will be the one to identify him.

394
00:57:01,794 --> 00:57:04,254
150,000 pesos.

395
00:57:05,881 --> 00:57:09,926
You're so uncompromising.
What do you want?

396
00:57:10,010 --> 00:57:15,306
Your decisions will show
if you're aware of the situation.

397
00:57:15,391 --> 00:57:19,311
I want facts!
- Stop!

398
00:57:25,568 --> 00:57:30,030
I think Bianca's origin
has been undoubtedly confirmed.

399
00:59:54,592 --> 00:59:58,137
Negroes! Hordes of Negroes!

400
00:59:58,512 --> 01:00:03,433
Negroes at this time of the year?
The barometer must be at its lowest point.

401
01:00:05,019 --> 01:00:06,103
Bianca?

402
01:00:08,814 --> 01:00:10,357
I thought you'd never get here.

403
01:00:11,650 --> 01:00:15,070
Sit down.
- No, Infanta.

404
01:00:15,821 --> 01:00:18,824
I have to do duties
which fate has assigned to me.

405
01:00:18,907 --> 01:00:22,994
I have to carry out my plan.
- Did you bring anything to read?

406
01:00:27,875 --> 01:00:30,085
Decrees. Sign them.

407
01:00:37,509 --> 01:00:41,721
"Daisy, Daisy give me your answer."
Barrel organs everywhere!

408
01:00:47,561 --> 01:00:50,605
Real marvels of technology.
They may come in handy.

409
01:00:54,485 --> 01:00:57,237
Things went so far

410
01:00:57,321 --> 01:01:02,242
that I got involved
in the dynastic affairs of great monarchs.

411
01:01:02,618 --> 01:01:06,246
I think we're in trouble.
- Let's think about betrayal.

412
01:01:06,705 --> 01:01:08,540
Betrayal?
- Yes.

413
01:01:08,624 --> 01:01:10,500
Betrayal?
- That's right.

414
01:01:11,377 --> 01:01:13,420
Do you have a better idea?

415
01:01:13,921 --> 01:01:14,963
I don't understand.

416
01:01:19,134 --> 01:01:22,887
It must be a wonderful feeling.

417
01:01:23,764 --> 01:01:28,477
To penetrate the depths of villainy
and erase oneself from one's own memory.

418
01:01:29,228 --> 01:01:30,312
Think about it.

419
01:01:30,771 --> 01:01:34,065
Wouldn't you like to be,
for just a moment…

420
01:01:34,858 --> 01:01:38,736
so defiled or repulsive?

421
01:01:39,405 --> 01:01:40,989
But totally renewed.

422
01:01:42,783 --> 01:01:43,825
Do it.

423
01:01:44,743 --> 01:01:47,162
Do it, and you'll become one of them.

424
01:01:48,247 --> 01:01:50,040
One of those black Negroes.

425
01:01:50,582 --> 01:01:55,920
Now, that things are at the final stage,
you want me to betray?

426
01:01:57,506 --> 01:02:01,843
You're ridiculous with your faithfulness
and sense of mission!

427
01:02:03,387 --> 01:02:05,847
What if I chose Rudolf?
- Oh, no.

428
01:02:05,931 --> 01:02:09,100
I prefer him a thousand times over you,
a boring pedant.

429
01:02:11,437 --> 01:02:13,105
He would be obedient.

430
01:02:13,814 --> 01:02:18,360
Even when it came to crime
or self-destruction!

431
01:02:18,444 --> 01:02:19,778
Rudolf? Obedient?

432
01:02:20,696 --> 01:02:23,615
Do you remember Lonka,
the washerwoman Antosia's daughter?

433
01:02:23,699 --> 01:02:26,785
You played with her when you were little.
- Oh, right, yes.

434
01:02:26,869 --> 01:02:27,744
It was me.

435
01:02:28,579 --> 01:02:32,291
Only I was a boy at that time.
Did you like me then?

436
01:02:32,374 --> 01:02:36,628
Bianca, I feel everything
is going the wrong way.

437
01:02:36,712 --> 01:02:39,131
Must you disappoint me?

438
01:02:39,214 --> 01:02:41,466
May I see your tickets, please?

439
01:02:48,891 --> 01:02:50,183
Conductor…

440
01:02:50,851 --> 01:02:54,896
What is going on here, for God's sake?

441
01:02:54,980 --> 01:02:58,566
Take it easy. Don't panic.

442
01:02:58,650 --> 01:03:02,487
We'll fix everything quietly.
We don't need anyone's help.

443
01:03:03,155 --> 01:03:06,074
Normal facts are arranged in time.

444
01:03:06,950 --> 01:03:08,785
They are threaded onto it—

445
01:03:10,913 --> 01:03:13,457
They are threaded onto it
like onto a string.

446
01:03:13,540 --> 01:03:17,168
It's important
for narration and continuity.

447
01:03:17,252 --> 01:03:19,796
Fine, but…

448
01:03:21,006 --> 01:03:26,511
But what about events
which have no place in time?

449
01:03:27,304 --> 01:03:29,764
Events which have occurred too late,

450
01:03:29,848 --> 01:03:34,394
once all of time has been allocated?

451
01:03:34,770 --> 01:03:38,815
Is time too tight to take in all events?

452
01:03:38,899 --> 01:03:43,904
Time has its side offshoots,
somewhat illegal and dubious.

453
01:03:43,987 --> 01:03:50,660
But we can't be too fussy when dealing
with events that cannot be classified.

454
01:03:51,453 --> 01:03:52,704
Who knows?

455
01:03:52,788 --> 01:03:57,626
Maybe all the dirty manipulation
is already behind us.

456
01:03:58,126 --> 01:04:02,880
And we're heading… to a dead end.

457
01:04:05,175 --> 01:04:06,092
Exactly.

458
01:04:08,428 --> 01:04:10,596
How can I get out of here?

459
01:04:12,891 --> 01:04:14,851
Why don't you try going…

460
01:04:15,853 --> 01:04:16,937
under the bed again?

461
01:04:20,566 --> 01:04:24,528
Excuse me, but I have to go.
- Coward!

462
01:04:24,611 --> 01:04:27,113
I hope to come back again.

463
01:04:28,240 --> 01:04:29,616
Coward!

464
01:04:33,328 --> 01:04:35,830
Wretched and stupid coward.

465
01:05:19,958 --> 01:05:21,626
Oh, it's you.

466
01:05:30,469 --> 01:05:32,846
You don't look well.

467
01:05:32,930 --> 01:05:37,142
Everything is mixed up, Father.

468
01:05:37,935 --> 01:05:38,894
Father?

469
01:05:39,728 --> 01:05:42,856
It takes a lot of patience
to find, in this confusion…

470
01:05:44,608 --> 01:05:45,942
the right words.

471
01:05:46,026 --> 01:05:52,907
You can do it through grammatical analysis
of sentences and tenses.

472
01:05:53,825 --> 01:05:56,744
What? I don't remember.

473
01:05:57,079 --> 01:05:59,039
What? Who? Whom?

474
01:05:59,122 --> 01:06:01,415
I am, he is, she is…

475
01:06:01,500 --> 01:06:02,751
I've got it!

476
01:06:03,627 --> 01:06:05,045
You are, we are—

477
01:06:06,755 --> 01:06:09,382
They are…

478
01:06:14,972 --> 01:06:19,893
You need to eliminate
flirtatious chatter of birds.

479
01:06:22,854 --> 01:06:27,567
Their pointed adverbs, prepositions,

480
01:06:28,402 --> 01:06:32,989
and timid personal pronouns to find…

481
01:06:34,032 --> 01:06:36,784
a healthy grain of time.

482
01:07:03,979 --> 01:07:06,398
Books of legend.

483
01:07:06,898 --> 01:07:09,525
Unwritten books.

484
01:07:10,068 --> 01:07:12,236
Great epics.

485
01:07:12,320 --> 01:07:16,365
Pallid and monotonous nameless novels.

486
01:07:16,825 --> 01:07:18,785
Faceless giants.

487
01:07:19,453 --> 01:07:21,955
Dark, evening stories.

488
01:07:22,039 --> 01:07:23,540
Cloudy dramas.

489
01:07:23,790 --> 01:07:27,627
Errant and lost books.

490
01:07:28,086 --> 01:07:30,922
<i>In partibus infidelium.</i>

491
01:08:33,026 --> 01:08:38,281
You must have had a lot of work recently.
The light's on in your room late at night.

492
01:08:39,825 --> 01:08:41,535
Try. See if you can do it.

493
01:09:00,512 --> 01:09:02,972
Fascinating!

494
01:09:03,056 --> 01:09:07,143
What a beauty!

495
01:09:07,769 --> 01:09:13,941
Remember. <i>Paradisea apoda,</i>
or the bird of paradise.

496
01:09:16,194 --> 01:09:18,487
<i>Cardinalis cardinalis!</i>

497
01:09:20,907 --> 01:09:23,034
<i>Chrysolophus pictus.</i>

498
01:09:24,661 --> 01:09:26,746
<i>Upupa epops.</i>

499
01:09:30,208 --> 01:09:34,629
I want you to take something with you.

500
01:09:35,255 --> 01:09:37,882
Anything, even just a tiny bit.

501
01:09:38,717 --> 01:09:44,639
Get it into your blood and life,
and preserve it.

502
01:09:44,723 --> 01:09:46,391
And live with it.

503
01:09:53,899 --> 01:09:55,817
Come in.

504
01:09:56,610 --> 01:09:57,485
Come in!

505
01:09:59,529 --> 01:10:01,739
Go now. They're looking for you.

506
01:10:01,823 --> 01:10:05,952
I don't want to be disturbed. Go.

507
01:10:14,127 --> 01:10:16,003
Go!

508
01:10:25,555 --> 01:10:27,640
Go!

509
01:11:09,808 --> 01:11:11,184
Look at you.

510
01:11:13,687 --> 01:11:15,146
You're covered in cobwebs.

511
01:11:16,856 --> 01:11:18,691
And you ripped your coat.

512
01:11:19,901 --> 01:11:21,652
You've been in the attic again.

513
01:11:31,871 --> 01:11:35,374
Shop assistants steal from us,
people buy on credit only,

514
01:11:35,458 --> 01:11:37,126
and you just play around.

515
01:11:38,253 --> 01:11:41,047
Take it to the shop.
Your father must be hungry.

516
01:11:56,896 --> 01:11:58,439
To the shop!

517
01:11:58,523 --> 01:11:59,815
"To the shop!"

518
01:13:05,173 --> 01:13:07,300
They're looking for you.

519
01:13:07,384 --> 01:13:08,593
It's so hot.

520
01:13:10,387 --> 01:13:12,055
Who?

521
01:13:13,139 --> 01:13:15,182
The shop assistants, especially Teodor.

522
01:13:16,059 --> 01:13:21,397
I know. They'll be climbing
up and down the ladder again.

523
01:13:24,401 --> 01:13:26,152
Up and down.

524
01:13:30,198 --> 01:13:32,658
Up and down again.

525
01:13:33,576 --> 01:13:34,910
Up and down again.

526
01:13:38,456 --> 01:13:40,458
Up and down again.

527
01:13:48,633 --> 01:13:49,884
Józef!

528
01:13:53,179 --> 01:13:55,639
I wish you had been born earlier.

529
01:14:10,196 --> 01:14:11,322
Come!

530
01:14:12,407 --> 01:14:13,533
Get over here!

531
01:14:28,214 --> 01:14:30,424
Take it to them. It'll scare them.

532
01:14:33,761 --> 01:14:37,556
Adela, Holofernes was a man.

533
01:14:37,640 --> 01:14:42,061
Whatever. I kept her in borsch
to make her look better.

534
01:14:59,245 --> 01:15:00,871
I'll buy it.

535
01:15:05,418 --> 01:15:07,461
Lay off. It's not for sale.

536
01:15:07,545 --> 01:15:11,549
What? The head is in a shop,
so it's for sale.

537
01:15:12,217 --> 01:15:13,509
I'll buy it.

538
01:15:50,088 --> 01:15:53,007
Father!

539
01:15:53,424 --> 01:15:57,052
Take it away. There's no room here.

540
01:16:00,014 --> 01:16:03,517
Father!
- Stop bothering me. I'm busy!

541
01:16:17,365 --> 01:16:22,536
Jakub! Go on, trade!

542
01:16:42,056 --> 01:16:43,932
Show them!

543
01:16:46,144 --> 01:16:48,354
It's very good!

544
01:16:52,442 --> 01:16:54,485
Father!

545
01:17:39,197 --> 01:17:41,991
Wake up, Józef.

546
01:17:42,075 --> 01:17:45,870
I know you're exhausted.
It's only a few steps more.

547
01:17:46,621 --> 01:17:49,665
Father, you're ill.
You should take care of yourself.

548
01:17:51,292 --> 01:17:54,670
It's him. Can you hear him?
He's coming!

549
01:17:55,630 --> 01:17:59,383
I've known him since childhood.
We went to school together.

550
01:17:59,467 --> 01:18:03,596
Even then, that egoist disgusted me.

551
01:18:03,680 --> 01:18:07,975
He devoured lots of buttered rolls.

552
01:18:08,601 --> 01:18:12,813
Go and meet him.
He'll think I'm ignoring him.

553
01:18:14,899 --> 01:18:17,318
Go!

554
01:18:41,008 --> 01:18:43,635
These are really good items!

555
01:18:46,097 --> 01:18:47,098
Father?

556
01:19:09,078 --> 01:19:13,290
If I'm not mistaken,
it's Józef, Jakub's son.

557
01:19:13,374 --> 01:19:17,002
May the sky over your heads
always be blue,

558
01:19:17,086 --> 01:19:19,671
and the ground under your feet
moist with dew.

559
01:19:19,756 --> 01:19:21,758
I don't think I need to say that.

560
01:19:21,841 --> 01:19:25,928
You can hear their shop
is as busy as a beehive.

561
01:19:28,723 --> 01:19:32,184
It's just appearances
and pitiful mystification.

562
01:19:33,811 --> 01:19:35,979
Mother complains
people buy on credit only.

563
01:19:36,856 --> 01:19:39,191
What did he say?
- Credit.

564
01:19:40,151 --> 01:19:43,696
I must have misheard.
- I could have expected it.

565
01:19:43,780 --> 01:19:47,867
They sell on credit.
- Enough! I don't want to hear it.

566
01:19:47,950 --> 01:19:49,910
Why do you keep bowing?

567
01:19:52,497 --> 01:19:55,958
Turn your ear and listen
to the words of the wise.

568
01:19:56,042 --> 01:19:59,170
Apply your heart to my teaching.

569
01:19:59,253 --> 01:20:01,463
I sold for cash.

570
01:20:03,216 --> 01:20:06,719
Help our fellow man as much as we can,

571
01:20:06,803 --> 01:20:10,723
but be vigilant we don't fall ourselves.

572
01:20:25,780 --> 01:20:30,284
The seven years of plenty
will come to this land.

573
01:20:30,910 --> 01:20:37,791
It was Christian Seipel and Sons,
owners of weaving mills.

574
01:20:38,376 --> 01:20:42,088
The rich man laboured in gathering riches,

575
01:20:42,922 --> 01:20:47,593
and when he rests,
he shall be filled with his goods.

576
01:20:49,178 --> 01:20:52,931
The poor man laboured
in his low way of life…

577
01:20:54,725 --> 01:20:57,519
and in the end he is still poor.

578
01:25:19,406 --> 01:25:20,448
Come.

579
01:25:52,398 --> 01:25:54,817
She doesn't show up in the park anymore.

580
01:25:54,900 --> 01:25:59,321
They must be guarding her.
They smelled danger.

581
01:25:59,405 --> 01:26:01,657
It's nothing but humbug!

582
01:26:01,740 --> 01:26:05,702
Extraterritoriality! Mexico!
Maximilian! Cotton plantations!

583
01:26:05,786 --> 01:26:06,995
Enough!

584
01:26:07,955 --> 01:26:11,291
I'm sorry… Who told you that?

585
01:26:11,375 --> 01:26:14,878
The files of this secret conspiracy
were never revealed.

586
01:26:15,713 --> 01:26:19,216
After all,
I'm the owner of this stamp album.

587
01:26:19,800 --> 01:26:23,094
I won't lend it to you again
for such purposes.

588
01:26:23,179 --> 01:26:27,057
I must admit
that the whole thing is incredible.

589
01:26:27,641 --> 01:26:29,392
Unbelievable.

590
01:26:29,768 --> 01:26:32,228
What do you think, Rudolf?

591
01:26:32,313 --> 01:26:37,067
Who could have conceived
of such an evil idea,

592
01:26:37,151 --> 01:26:40,404
which goes beyond any fantasy?

593
01:26:45,826 --> 01:26:48,286
I'm amazed myself.

594
01:26:52,082 --> 01:26:56,294
Tittle-tattle! Our partnership is over!
- Suit yourself.

595
01:26:56,795 --> 01:27:01,424
I said I would prove that it was all true.

596
01:27:25,532 --> 01:27:28,117
Where is Mr de V?
- He's left.

597
01:27:30,037 --> 01:27:33,165
We'll see about that.
And where is the Infanta?

598
01:27:35,042 --> 01:27:39,004
Her Highness has left too.
Nobody is here.

599
01:27:39,088 --> 01:27:41,131
Right. Get out.

600
01:27:49,181 --> 01:27:50,849
Somebody must have betrayed me.

601
01:28:01,694 --> 01:28:02,778
Abra…

602
01:28:05,614 --> 01:28:06,865
Abra?

603
01:28:08,075 --> 01:28:09,201
Abracadabra.

604
01:28:10,619 --> 01:28:11,786
Great.

605
01:28:12,371 --> 01:28:15,999
Come on. Get up!

606
01:28:19,211 --> 01:28:20,754
Hale'iwa!

607
01:28:25,175 --> 01:28:26,342
Vienna!

608
01:28:42,276 --> 01:28:44,152
Bravo!

609
01:28:44,820 --> 01:28:47,656
Mount your horses, gentlemen!

610
01:28:50,534 --> 01:28:53,328
Hale'iwa! Quickly!

611
01:28:54,371 --> 01:28:58,416
What's going on here?
- This way, Your Highness.

612
01:29:19,104 --> 01:29:20,855
Forward!

613
01:30:07,903 --> 01:30:11,489
Gentlemen, I troubled you in vain.

614
01:30:12,241 --> 01:30:16,662
These people are free to go.
Don't harm them.

615
01:30:17,788 --> 01:30:21,041
In my blindness,
I wanted to preach the Scripture.

616
01:30:21,125 --> 01:30:23,836
To interpret God's will.

617
01:30:24,336 --> 01:30:27,547
My false belief made me
pursue obscure clues

618
01:30:27,631 --> 01:30:31,134
and make random conclusions.

619
01:30:32,010 --> 01:30:33,720
Allow me, my friend.

620
01:30:33,804 --> 01:30:38,141
Noble gentlemen and you, Infanta.

621
01:30:38,225 --> 01:30:40,477
I hand the regency to Rudolf.

622
01:30:41,103 --> 01:30:42,854
I abdicate!

623
01:30:47,568 --> 01:30:49,736
You're free, noble gentlemen.

624
01:30:50,154 --> 01:30:53,198
Thank you in the name of our idea.

625
01:30:54,700 --> 01:30:57,786
Our dethroned idea…

626
01:30:59,746 --> 01:31:01,372
which, no matter wh—

627
01:31:04,501 --> 01:31:05,502
Hurry!

628
01:31:06,670 --> 01:31:08,421
Hurry!
- Hurry!

629
01:31:18,599 --> 01:31:21,268
Father!

630
01:31:21,351 --> 01:31:24,812
Call Garibaldi!
He's an expert on wounds.

631
01:31:24,897 --> 01:31:27,566
Oh, Jesus! Bianca!

632
01:31:30,944 --> 01:31:31,903
Get a stretcher!

633
01:31:32,946 --> 01:31:34,197
Hurry!

634
01:31:40,787 --> 01:31:43,080
What a fatal night.

635
01:31:43,874 --> 01:31:45,000
I didn't foresee it.

636
01:31:45,751 --> 01:31:49,129
He had a noble heart after all.

637
01:31:49,588 --> 01:31:51,047
I have wronged him.

638
01:31:52,508 --> 01:31:54,927
Rudolf, you must comfort Bianca,

639
01:31:55,010 --> 01:31:58,972
love her with double love
to replace her father.

640
01:32:03,310 --> 01:32:04,311
Oh, right.

641
01:32:05,145 --> 01:32:07,188
You want to take him with you?

642
01:32:08,357 --> 01:32:09,900
Let's form a procession.

643
01:32:10,651 --> 01:32:12,402
Form a procession!

644
01:32:13,904 --> 01:32:16,781
Form a procession!

645
01:32:53,026 --> 01:32:54,485
One more thing, Rudolf.

646
01:32:54,570 --> 01:32:58,365
I should be the one
to provide for the old age

647
01:32:58,448 --> 01:33:00,908
of those homeless heroes.

648
01:33:01,660 --> 01:33:03,161
Unfortunately, I'm a pauper.

649
01:33:08,709 --> 01:33:11,169
How much?
- Ten thousand.

650
01:33:15,674 --> 01:33:17,384
Five.
- No.

651
01:33:18,093 --> 01:33:19,010
Twelve.

652
01:33:42,492 --> 01:33:48,456
Gentlemen! After what happened,
no wax museum will take you in.

653
01:33:48,540 --> 01:33:51,042
Especially since competition is so fierce.

654
01:33:51,126 --> 01:33:53,461
As you have no practical skills,

655
01:33:53,545 --> 01:33:57,590
my friend made a donation
to purchase 12 barrel organs.

656
01:33:58,884 --> 01:34:03,722
Go around the world
and play to make people happy.

657
01:34:04,139 --> 01:34:06,599
You can choose the music.

658
01:34:07,934 --> 01:34:13,272
And now,
dear friends and noble gentlemen,

659
01:34:13,774 --> 01:34:16,067
let's cheer together.

660
01:34:16,610 --> 01:34:19,696
Long live the newlyweds!

661
01:34:30,248 --> 01:34:31,540
Farewell, gentlemen.

662
01:34:32,751 --> 01:34:37,005
May what you see be a warning to you.

663
01:34:37,923 --> 01:34:43,470
Don't ever try to guess God's intentions.

664
01:34:45,138 --> 01:34:47,932
<i>Ignorabimus</i>, gentlemen.

665
01:34:48,684 --> 01:34:50,060
<i>Ignorabimu—</i>

666
01:34:55,649 --> 01:34:58,818
Are you Józef, Jakub's son?

667
01:35:00,195 --> 01:35:01,362
Maybe. Yes.

668
01:35:01,446 --> 01:35:06,033
Did you dream the standard dream
of biblical Joseph?

669
01:35:07,160 --> 01:35:08,161
Maybe.

670
01:35:11,123 --> 01:35:12,290
Well?

671
01:35:14,042 --> 01:35:18,379
Do you know that your dream
was noticed at the highest level

672
01:35:18,463 --> 01:35:20,214
and was severely criticised?

673
01:35:20,924 --> 01:35:24,677
I'm not responsible for my dreams.
- Yes, you are.

674
01:35:25,137 --> 01:35:29,558
You are under arrest in the name
of His Imperial and Royal Majesty.

675
01:35:31,101 --> 01:35:32,644
I'm at your disposal.

676
01:35:36,231 --> 01:35:40,610
His Imperial and Royal Majesty's
bureaucracy is a bit slow.

677
01:35:41,194 --> 01:35:45,740
I have surpassed that early dream
with more serious deeds.

678
01:35:45,824 --> 01:35:49,077
I wanted to do justice and kill myself.

679
01:35:49,161 --> 01:35:52,956
Now that obsolete dream has saved my life!

680
01:36:12,517 --> 01:36:15,311
Don't cry.
- I have a migraine.

681
01:36:18,815 --> 01:36:21,108
Come. I'll have someone make you tea.

682
01:36:30,118 --> 01:36:31,577
Is Adela at home?

683
01:36:32,245 --> 01:36:34,997
Adela left to America.

684
01:36:36,333 --> 01:36:37,959
She left?

685
01:36:39,085 --> 01:36:40,002
Yes.

686
01:36:40,086 --> 01:36:44,757
She went by ship and it sank.
All passengers died.

687
01:36:44,841 --> 01:36:47,176
We never heard from her again.

688
01:36:48,303 --> 01:36:49,304
What about Father?

689
01:36:50,680 --> 01:36:52,223
Where is he?

690
01:36:52,307 --> 01:36:53,516
Father…

691
01:36:54,476 --> 01:37:01,149
He left many times,
but it was never final.

692
01:37:01,817 --> 01:37:04,986
It had its good points.

693
01:37:05,070 --> 01:37:10,700
This way he prepared us
for his ultimate departure.

694
01:37:33,056 --> 01:37:34,891
Take me to him.

695
01:37:37,018 --> 01:37:38,019
All right.

696
01:37:41,565 --> 01:37:46,111
I think it's time for you to see him.

697
01:37:54,077 --> 01:37:55,787
The shop is closed for good.

698
01:37:56,371 --> 01:38:00,666
Sometimes I go down there
to sell the remnants, but…

699
01:38:02,002 --> 01:38:05,422
But the shutters are only half-open.

700
01:38:55,472 --> 01:38:57,182
He was one of those

701
01:38:57,974 --> 01:39:03,229
whose face was touched
by the hand of God while sleeping.

702
01:39:04,731 --> 01:39:08,609
They know what they don't know.

703
01:39:09,736 --> 01:39:12,238
They become speculative…

704
01:39:14,074 --> 01:39:15,408
and suspicious.

705
01:39:18,036 --> 01:39:20,580
Through closed eyelids…

706
01:39:22,457 --> 01:39:25,376
they see images…

707
01:39:27,504 --> 01:39:30,006
of distant worlds.

708
01:39:52,946 --> 01:39:57,200
<i>For man goes to his eternal home.</i>

709
01:39:58,493 --> 01:40:02,079
<i>while mourners go about in the street.</i>

710
01:40:03,206 --> 01:40:06,584
<i>Before the silver cord is broken.</i>

711
01:40:07,460 --> 01:40:10,212
<i>and the golden bowl is crushed.</i>

712
01:40:12,048 --> 01:40:15,426
<i>The pitcher by the well is broken.</i>

713
01:40:16,469 --> 01:40:18,971
<i>and the wheel at the cistern is crushed.</i>

714
01:40:20,098 --> 01:40:24,852
<i>Then the dust will return
to the earth as it was.</i>

715
01:40:25,937 --> 01:40:30,399
<i>And the spirit
will return to God who gave it.</i>

716
01:41:00,013 --> 01:41:03,808
I'm so glad to see you, Józef.

717
01:41:03,892 --> 01:41:06,269
What a surprise.

718
01:41:06,978 --> 01:41:09,105
I feel so lonely here.

719
01:41:09,939 --> 01:41:15,653
Although I can't complain.
I've been through worse things.

720
01:41:19,491 --> 01:41:21,159
I must tell you something.

721
01:41:26,873 --> 01:41:28,958
But don't laugh.

722
01:41:29,584 --> 01:41:33,379
I rented a place for a shop here.

723
01:41:33,963 --> 01:41:38,801
It's nothing much, of course.

724
01:41:39,677 --> 01:41:43,180
Back home, I'd be ashamed
to have a stall like that.

725
01:41:43,264 --> 01:41:48,852
But here, we had to pull in our horns.

726
01:41:49,562 --> 01:41:51,188
Isn't that right, Józef?

727
01:41:53,024 --> 01:41:55,443
Life goes on.

728
01:42:00,532 --> 01:42:03,201
I must have overwound it.

729
01:42:07,330 --> 01:42:09,206
I see you're sleepy.

730
01:42:10,083 --> 01:42:12,043
Go back to sleep.

731
01:42:14,003 --> 01:42:18,549
You have no idea
how hard it was to get a loan.

732
01:42:19,676 --> 01:42:24,472
People here don't trust old merchants.

733
01:42:24,931 --> 01:42:28,392
Merchants with past experience.

734
01:42:30,895 --> 01:42:35,316
Do you remember
the optician's shop in the market square?

735
01:42:36,192 --> 01:42:38,903
Our shop is right next door.

736
01:42:40,613 --> 01:42:44,241
We don't have a sign yet.
But you'll find it.

737
01:42:51,374 --> 01:42:55,836
You're going out without your coat?
- I couldn't find it in my trunk.

738
01:42:55,920 --> 01:42:58,005
They forgot to pack it.

739
01:43:00,216 --> 01:43:01,759
Take my coat.

740
01:43:03,136 --> 01:43:05,513
No. See you.

741
01:46:19,874 --> 01:46:22,793
SPECTACLES
BINOCULARS FOR WOMEN

742
01:47:13,219 --> 01:47:15,554
Jakub! Go on, trade.

743
01:47:40,621 --> 01:47:42,623
Why don't you sit down, Father?

744
01:47:44,542 --> 01:47:47,169
You're ill.
You should take care of yourself.

745
01:47:49,672 --> 01:47:53,467
Stop bothering me. I'm busy!

746
01:48:16,449 --> 01:48:23,205
A letter came for you.
It's on my desk among some papers.

747
01:50:35,671 --> 01:50:38,090
On my first day here,

748
01:50:38,174 --> 01:50:44,013
I was served an excellent <i>filet de boeuf</i>
with mushrooms.

749
01:50:45,097 --> 01:50:47,933
It was a hell of a piece of meat.

750
01:50:48,017 --> 01:50:50,352
I have to warn you.

751
01:50:50,436 --> 01:50:54,148
If they ever want
to serve you <i>filet de boeuf…</i>

752
01:50:58,944 --> 01:51:01,821
<i>Filet de boeuf…</i>

753
01:51:03,783 --> 01:51:07,495
I still feel fire in my stomach.

754
01:51:09,038 --> 01:51:10,998
I have diarrhoea after diarrhoea.

755
01:51:11,999 --> 01:51:15,127
It's really tough.

756
01:51:15,211 --> 01:51:19,632
Or take, for instance,
hunter-style roast,

757
01:51:19,715 --> 01:51:24,928
stuffed with pâté with gravy.

758
01:51:26,597 --> 01:51:30,392
Here we don't have to deny
ourselves anything.

759
01:51:31,102 --> 01:51:35,189
As you can see,
we can afford to indulge big style.

760
01:51:38,192 --> 01:51:41,320
An angel of a boy. So precious.

761
01:51:45,408 --> 01:51:48,494
You must admit he's charming.

762
01:51:54,208 --> 01:51:55,250
Got a light?

763
01:51:59,046 --> 01:52:04,176
Even schoolgirls here
wear bows in a special manner.

764
01:52:04,719 --> 01:52:11,308
If you as much as glance at them,
you get that sultry look…

765
01:52:13,894 --> 01:52:18,356
which fills us with desire.

766
01:52:24,405 --> 01:52:25,531
No way!

767
01:53:06,864 --> 01:53:09,032
I have to see the doctor.

768
01:53:11,368 --> 01:53:13,787
He's at the restaurant.

769
01:53:15,331 --> 01:53:17,499
I've just been there.

770
01:53:17,583 --> 01:53:20,961
Sorry, my mistake.
I meant the operating room.

771
01:53:22,046 --> 01:53:25,883
We're evidently in a trap.

772
01:53:28,761 --> 01:53:32,681
Ever since I came here,
the sanatorium personnel

773
01:53:32,765 --> 01:53:36,310
haven't done anything
to provide proper care.

774
01:53:37,144 --> 01:53:39,855
We're left to ourselves.

775
01:53:39,939 --> 01:53:44,401
I can't get a bed,
not to mention clean linen.

776
01:53:53,160 --> 01:53:58,790
Those secrets and discreet looks
of yours are just as mystifying.

777
01:53:58,874 --> 01:54:04,629
I feel like opening all those doors
to expose the intrigue we got involved in.

778
01:54:07,800 --> 01:54:12,596
Get some sleep.
You can hardly keep on your feet.

779
01:55:20,331 --> 01:55:23,042
Józef, Józef…

780
01:55:24,501 --> 01:55:27,504
I've been lying in bed here,
left without any care.

781
01:55:28,297 --> 01:55:30,549
The wires have been cut.

782
01:55:32,426 --> 01:55:34,594
Nobody comes to see me.

783
01:55:35,471 --> 01:55:41,977
Nobody can make me a cup of tea.

784
01:55:53,822 --> 01:56:00,119
My own son
has abandoned his gravely sick father

785
01:56:01,163 --> 01:56:04,040
to chase girls in town.

786
01:56:04,959 --> 01:56:06,168
Józef…

787
01:56:08,379 --> 01:56:13,258
You should go to our shop more often.

788
01:56:14,885 --> 01:56:19,180
The shop assistants
are stealing from us.

789
01:56:20,474 --> 01:56:24,352
Our shop will go to waste

790
01:56:25,562 --> 01:56:29,440
if nobody takes care of it.

791
01:56:31,235 --> 01:56:35,155
Look, my heart is pounding.

792
01:56:36,991 --> 01:56:38,826
My strength is leaving me.

793
01:56:55,426 --> 01:56:56,552
Józef…

794
01:56:58,220 --> 01:57:03,058
Was there any mail from home—

795
01:57:46,477 --> 01:57:47,728
Doctor…

796
01:57:47,811 --> 01:57:50,855
You're not looking well.
Take your jacket off.

797
01:57:51,398 --> 01:57:52,816
I'll examine you.

798
01:57:54,109 --> 01:57:56,861
Your irritation is justified.

799
01:57:56,945 --> 01:58:00,740
Your body,
especially your nervous system,

800
01:58:00,824 --> 01:58:03,076
has to adjust to new conditions.

801
01:58:11,418 --> 01:58:14,587
We were deceived by an ad.

802
01:58:14,671 --> 01:58:18,549
It wasn't a good idea
to send my father here.

803
01:58:19,593 --> 01:58:21,011
Moving back time!

804
01:58:23,680 --> 01:58:28,059
It sounds good.
But what is it in fact?

805
01:58:28,727 --> 01:58:33,273
Do we get fully valuable
and credible time here?

806
01:58:33,357 --> 01:58:36,860
No, quite the opposite.
We get time used up by people.

807
01:58:36,944 --> 01:58:40,072
It's frayed and full of holes.

808
01:58:40,155 --> 01:58:44,742
It's vomited, second-hand time!

809
01:58:46,453 --> 01:58:49,831
You may question the quality
of your father's existence,

810
01:58:49,915 --> 01:58:55,295
but you can see him,
be with him, and talk to him.

811
01:58:57,589 --> 01:59:00,592
You should be very grateful to the doctor.

812
01:59:00,676 --> 01:59:03,804
Enough! Space is for people.

813
01:59:03,887 --> 01:59:07,015
In space you can swing around,
do somersaults,

814
01:59:07,099 --> 01:59:08,642
jump from one star to another.

815
01:59:08,725 --> 01:59:11,185
But don't tamper with time,
for God's sake!

816
01:59:12,646 --> 01:59:17,525
The blame for this lies
in fast decomposition!

817
01:59:24,616 --> 01:59:25,783
Of time.

818
01:59:30,747 --> 01:59:32,248
We all know that…

819
01:59:33,709 --> 01:59:40,090
this chaotic element
can be kept within certain bounds…

820
01:59:44,178 --> 01:59:50,184
if regulated continually.

821
01:59:52,686 --> 01:59:56,481
If not, it begins to play
all kinds of tricks.

822
01:59:56,982 --> 01:59:58,233
Isn't that right?

823
01:59:59,359 --> 02:00:02,153
You should take better care of yourself.

824
02:00:02,779 --> 02:00:04,489
Wear warmer clothes.

825
02:00:05,908 --> 02:00:11,204
To start with, get some exercise.

826
02:00:11,705 --> 02:00:13,039
And then, we'll see.

827
02:00:14,750 --> 02:00:17,461
Okay! Chin up!

828
02:00:27,304 --> 02:00:31,683
It's for the best that Father
is basically no longer alive.

829
02:00:33,018 --> 02:00:35,353
It won't affect him anymore.

830
02:03:36,576 --> 02:03:40,246
THE END
