1
00:00:11,655 --> 00:00:13,230
Let's try to go there.

2
00:00:13,498 --> 00:00:15,150
Let's go into the thicket two by two.

3
00:00:48,788 --> 00:00:51,668
IT SEEMED LIKE THE OCEAN
YOU CAN TOUCH

4
00:00:51,783 --> 00:00:54,817
BUT HE WAS SO FAR AWAY.
WITH EVERY STEP - EVERYTHING FURTHER.

5
00:00:56,391 --> 00:01:00,308
HE CLOSE MY EYES
AND TRIED TO GO BLIND.

6
00:01:01,844 --> 00:01:04,263
HE PRESSED WITH HIS FINGERS
ON YOUR CLOSED EYELIDS,

7
00:01:04,340 --> 00:01:06,375
AND THE SETTING SUN
SHOWED HIM THE WAY

8
00:01:06,529 --> 00:01:08,103
IN DANCING Crimson PATTERNS.

9
00:01:27,457 --> 00:01:32,026
I was on a train somewhere
between Los Mochis and Chihuahua

10
00:01:32,180 --> 00:01:36,135
and I thought it was the most beautiful film,
what I can imagine

11
00:01:36,250 --> 00:01:38,554
this is a film that
never stops.

12
00:01:38,977 --> 00:01:43,930
You're sitting in an open carriage,
and the world flies by.

13
00:01:44,046 --> 00:01:46,810
All my creative life
I was haunted by desire

14
00:01:46,887 --> 00:01:49,690
make a film that
never stops.

15
00:01:50,228 --> 00:01:52,993
My next project
It's called "Untitled".

16
00:01:53,108 --> 00:01:56,986
This is a documentary
about nothing, without a topic.

17
00:01:57,409 --> 00:02:02,362
I just want to travel around the world for a year
and shoot everything that comes my way.

18
00:02:02,823 --> 00:02:07,738
This is my main project
on the theme of movement and wandering.

19
00:02:08,852 --> 00:02:10,772
DECEMBER 3, 2013:
PITTEN/AUSTRIA –

20
00:02:10,887 --> 00:02:12,577
HUNGARY –
BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA –

21
00:02:12,730 --> 00:02:14,458
CROATIA – SERBIA –
MONTENEGRO –

22
00:02:14,612 --> 00:02:17,338
ALBANIA – ITALY – MOROCCO –

23
00:02:17,492 --> 00:02:20,026

SIERRA LEONE – LIBERIA

24
00:02:21,601 --> 00:02:28,513
APRIL 22, 2014 MICHAEL GLAVOGGER
DIED IN LIBERIA FROM MALARIA

25
00:02:32,122 --> 00:02:33,313
AT THE BASE OF THE FILM –

26
00:02:33,428 --> 00:02:36,308
MATERIAL HE TOOK
FROM DEPARTURE TO DEATH,

27
00:02:36,462 --> 00:02:38,804
AND TEXTS,
WRITTEN BY HIM AT THIS TIME.

28
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,646
THE FILM WAS CREATED BY MONICA WILLEY.

29
00:02:41,799 --> 00:02:49,978
FILM WITHOUT A TITLE

30
00:03:38,286 --> 00:03:40,282
He never knew how to say goodbye.

31
00:03:40,897 --> 00:03:43,393
He always thought: when you leave, leave.

32
00:03:44,890 --> 00:03:48,730
The drama of farewells is rare
matches the situation.

33
00:03:49,383 --> 00:03:51,841
Or was it too much
careless and hurt others,

34
00:03:52,071 --> 00:03:53,492
or hurt you yourself.

35
00:03:54,644 --> 00:03:56,794
If you were too heavy

36
00:03:56,986 --> 00:04:01,825
the tone was wrong, and after farewell
followed by inner emptiness.

37
00:04:02,862 --> 00:04:05,204
After the influx of feelings there arose
feeling of loneliness.

38
00:04:06,279 --> 00:04:08,775
Most goodbyes
overly theatrical

39
00:04:09,198 --> 00:04:11,348
because sooner or later
you will meet again,

40
00:04:12,270 --> 00:04:15,802
and if you don’t meet, saying goodbye,
you don't know this yet.

41
00:05:37,326 --> 00:05:39,246
Some allegedly left the country

42
00:05:40,090 --> 00:05:42,586
with your precious stones
and sold them.

43
00:05:44,583 --> 00:05:46,580
But where could they go?
with your money?

44
00:05:48,078 --> 00:05:52,302
To New York, Tokyo,
Singapore, Milan or Vienna?

45
00:05:53,953 --> 00:05:57,370
How do they compare?
with luxury Koidu,

46
00:05:58,292 --> 00:06:01,633
whose sparkling landing strip
no need for lighting for airplanes?

47
00:06:03,130 --> 00:06:05,281
She herself illuminates the universe.

48
00:09:41,396 --> 00:09:42,471
Six pieces.

49
00:10:12,615 --> 00:10:17,031
Who would represent humanity
on the second Noah's Ark?

50
00:10:18,644 --> 00:10:20,295
He saw the Ark in all its colors.

51
00:10:21,370 --> 00:10:25,825
No longer made of wood, similar
on a huge air mattress

52
00:10:25,940 --> 00:10:29,511
from cans for oil, tires
and Coca-Cola bottles.

53
00:10:31,930 --> 00:10:36,730
Flagpole of a sinking world
made from scrap metal.

54
00:11:05,914 --> 00:11:10,023
When the great flood first
swallowed up America and Europe,

55
00:11:10,599 --> 00:11:13,018
latest cell phone
lost contact.

56
00:11:15,015 --> 00:11:17,166
But it seems no one is on the ship
didn't notice this

57
00:11:19,162 --> 00:11:20,622
because there was no one on board.

58
00:14:08,007 --> 00:14:11,886
He saw a little boy
on a mountain of plastic waste.

59
00:14:13,038 --> 00:14:14,190
He took a photo of it.

60
00:14:14,919 --> 00:14:17,684
A frequent, deeply naive photograph.

61
00:14:18,759 --> 00:14:21,409
However, maybe at this moment

62
00:14:22,062 --> 00:14:23,905
boy sneaks like a hare

63
00:14:24,135 --> 00:14:27,015
to the last boat
with his fiancee.

64
00:14:28,666 --> 00:14:32,161
They chose each other
against the will of everyone,

65
00:14:32,276 --> 00:14:35,617
who no mountains can save,
no bridges, no ships.

66
00:14:38,036 --> 00:14:42,913
And then pictures
won't be for a long time.

67
00:18:46,906 --> 00:18:50,478
In a small street, on the second
floor of the house above the entrance,

68
00:18:50,593 --> 00:18:52,436
into which the horse will pass,

69
00:18:52,666 --> 00:18:55,969
every evening at sunset
the window was open

70
00:18:56,622 --> 00:18:58,849
and a big dog stood at the window.

71
00:18:59,732 --> 00:19:02,996
Putting powerful front paws
on the windowsill,

72
00:19:03,495 --> 00:19:07,220
he was watching the traffic
and people's heads in the distance.

73
00:19:08,372 --> 00:19:10,753
He radiated happy confidence.

74
00:19:11,751 --> 00:19:15,207
Yes, his man will come.

75
00:19:15,668 --> 00:19:19,815
The person who trusts him
allowed to look out of the window,

76
00:19:20,622 --> 00:19:24,961
although there is a slim chance
that it will fall and break.

77
00:19:30,145 --> 00:19:32,794
Perhaps this is exactly what
and constitutes freedom.

78
00:19:33,908 --> 00:19:35,598
And the reason why
less and less.

79
00:19:37,748 --> 00:19:42,087
The death of freedom is to be foreseen
any possibility of misfortune

80
00:19:42,932 --> 00:19:44,468
and accordingly
plan life,

81
00:19:44,545 --> 00:19:47,886
without considering the beauty
what could happen

82
00:19:48,231 --> 00:19:50,881
if you just ignore
such restrictions.

83
00:19:52,570 --> 00:19:54,375
Fear is a terrible companion.

84
00:19:55,796 --> 00:19:59,674
The dog had the freedom to fall out of the window.

85
00:20:01,479 --> 00:20:05,626
That's why he was a proud dog,
which would never fall.

86
00:20:06,548 --> 00:20:07,508
And if I fell,

87
00:20:08,890 --> 00:20:10,273
then fell happy.

88
00:21:30,183 --> 00:21:31,873
"No need to say at all"

89
00:21:31,988 --> 00:21:34,676
it seems his companion said,
without saying anything.

90
00:21:35,175 --> 00:21:37,479
You're doing something
and when it's done,

91
00:21:38,017 --> 00:21:42,241
someone else's turn
make a move, take a life.

92
00:21:44,084 --> 00:21:47,079
In Sierra Leone some say
that they might disappear

93
00:21:47,578 --> 00:21:49,345
disappear into thin air if they want.

94
00:21:50,266 --> 00:21:53,146
And others disappear
without wanting it.

95
00:22:58,810 --> 00:23:00,999
A boy of about seven years old, no older,

96
00:23:01,114 --> 00:23:03,879
hands on hips,
tried to catch my breath.

97
00:23:04,186 --> 00:23:05,761
Like an adult athlete.

98
00:23:06,644 --> 00:23:11,674
The older ones with bigger carts,
who made a business out of

99
00:23:11,866 --> 00:23:14,170
what they carry up the hill
10 times more water cans,

100
00:23:14,746 --> 00:23:16,858
didn't laugh at the boy.

101
00:23:17,281 --> 00:23:21,313
They have already passed 1000 times
up and down and know what it's like.

102
00:23:22,926 --> 00:23:26,881
Until the young ones rebel,
he is tolerated.

103
00:23:27,380 --> 00:23:29,070
Like mosquitoes that don't bite.

104
00:23:30,529 --> 00:23:34,292
But if any of them wants
expand and begin to rise,

105
00:23:34,676 --> 00:23:35,866
let it be stronger.

106
00:23:36,289 --> 00:23:41,127
Otherwise they will beat him mercilessly,
until he gives up.

107
00:23:44,622 --> 00:23:47,732
He felt that it was growing inside him
something like envy.

108
00:23:48,538 --> 00:23:51,994
She came up from behind
and sat on the back of his head,

109
00:23:52,609 --> 00:23:55,566
like a hand humming faintly under current.

110
00:23:56,564 --> 00:23:58,906
Envy of the wildness of his childhood,

111
00:23:59,329 --> 00:24:01,518
to the dangerous oblivion of such a life.

112
00:24:03,822 --> 00:24:07,623
This thought tired him, because it
I've visited it so many times already.

113
00:24:09,121 --> 00:24:10,311
He didn't say it anymore.

114
00:24:11,156 --> 00:24:15,303
Or occasionally, only to close people.

115
00:28:06,855 --> 00:28:08,583
There were three types of houses:

116
00:28:09,121 --> 00:28:13,114
new bare brick buildings,
ruins and old

117
00:28:13,460 --> 00:28:17,684
essentially intact, but with facades,
riddled with bullets,

118
00:28:17,799 --> 00:28:19,796
like scars on a beaten body.

119
00:28:22,791 --> 00:28:26,132
For 20 years no one bothered
remove these scars.

120
00:28:27,668 --> 00:28:31,316
At the end of the street, shot,
bombed church

121
00:28:31,815 --> 00:28:34,503
looked reproachfully from her
roost like a chicken.

122
00:28:37,114 --> 00:28:40,993
Nobody talked about the war anymore
but it was felt everywhere.

123
00:28:42,106 --> 00:28:44,449
The houses of those killed were left empty.

124
00:28:45,025 --> 00:28:46,714
The new ones were clearly new.

125
00:28:48,020 --> 00:28:51,937
The second church now stood
inconspicuously opposite the beaten one.

126
00:28:52,666 --> 00:28:56,046
New - Catholic,
old – Orthodox.

127
00:34:58,810 --> 00:34:59,924
Come here.

128
00:35:03,111 --> 00:35:04,225
Open your mouth.

129
00:35:06,798 --> 00:35:07,796
Open your mouth.

130
00:35:08,756 --> 00:35:11,367
Swallow.

131
00:35:15,514 --> 00:35:17,281
Swallow. Let go of the spoon.

132
00:35:44,046 --> 00:35:46,234
They clapped their hands
snapped their fingers

133
00:35:46,350 --> 00:35:48,692
knocked knuckles
right hands clenched into a fist.

134
00:35:49,306 --> 00:35:52,302
And they said the typical
greeting: "How's your body?"

135
00:35:54,222 --> 00:35:55,182
"The body is fine."

136
00:35:55,834 --> 00:35:58,177
"The body is sick." "The body is angry."

137
00:35:58,945 --> 00:36:01,671
"The body is hungry." "The body is sad."

138
00:36:03,169 --> 00:36:06,471
And there was also: “The body inside is dressed.”

139
00:36:07,393 --> 00:36:11,079
If you don't know for sure,
how does your body feel today?

140
00:36:11,348 --> 00:36:15,802
"the body is clothed inside" –
is a good way to put it.

141
00:39:25,383 --> 00:39:27,380
He should have recognized the signs.

142
00:39:28,033 --> 00:39:31,220
He stood on the deck of the ferry,
coming from Mauritania to Senegal,

143
00:39:31,566 --> 00:39:33,102
and fell asleep standing up.

144
00:39:34,369 --> 00:39:37,172
He should have realized
that people don't sleep standing up.

145
00:39:37,671 --> 00:39:39,399
But he couldn't think because he was sleeping.

146
00:39:41,319 --> 00:39:45,082
He thought he thought:
"Only horses sleep standing up."

147
00:39:46,158 --> 00:39:48,500
Then he dozed off peacefully
under the midday sun.

148
00:39:49,306 --> 00:39:53,761
He had a dream and vaguely understood
that he dreams of donkeys.

149
00:39:55,758 --> 00:39:59,636
Later, walking along deserted streets,
he started to get scared

150
00:39:59,790 --> 00:40:03,015
because the donkey was following him
a good 10 minutes.

151
00:40:03,860 --> 00:40:08,391
As soon as he turned around, he looked like a donkey
pretended that he was just standing there.

152
00:40:09,198 --> 00:40:12,116
Usually donkeys pretend
that they are not here at all.

153
00:40:12,999 --> 00:40:16,647
Except when
they scream as if they are moaning.

154
00:40:21,908 --> 00:40:24,711
The donkey suddenly stood next to him,

155
00:40:25,287 --> 00:40:29,166
shouted loudly, reared up
and bit him on the back of the head.

156
00:40:30,126 --> 00:40:34,503
For a moment he thought it was a weasel,
but then I felt pain.

157
00:41:52,724 --> 00:41:56,257
At this time his personal information
began to live their own lives,

158
00:41:56,910 --> 00:41:58,177
like a prayer.

159
00:42:01,402 --> 00:42:05,473
Patronymic, existing in heaven,
May your passport number be hallowed.

160
00:42:06,049 --> 00:42:07,969
Kingdom come
place of your birth.

161
00:42:08,775 --> 00:42:12,730
Let the will of the issuing authority be
him, on earth as in heaven.

162
00:42:14,074 --> 00:42:15,956
Our daily form
give us this day

163
00:42:16,225 --> 00:42:19,066
and forgive us our mistakes
and our false information.

164
00:42:21,140 --> 00:42:24,442
And do not lead us into temptation
lie about the purpose of our trip.

165
00:42:24,980 --> 00:42:29,281
And deliver us from the evil concealment
when filling out this form.

166
00:42:30,740 --> 00:42:34,964
For yours is the kingdom
and the power to deny us entry,

167
00:42:35,463 --> 00:42:38,382
and glory forever. Amen.

168
00:42:41,300 --> 00:42:45,831
Come and get it
what I have prepared for you.

169
00:42:46,177 --> 00:42:48,826
Come and get it
your blessings.

170
00:42:49,018 --> 00:42:53,818
And don't pay any money.
You won't hold the answer.

171
00:42:57,198 --> 00:42:58,503
Isaiah says:

172
00:43:00,500 --> 00:43:03,457
who doesn't have money
come and find

173
00:43:03,841 --> 00:43:11,943
any goods, materials,
livestock, things you don't have.

174
00:43:12,097 --> 00:43:13,671
Come and find it.

175
00:43:48,270 --> 00:43:49,230
Grant

176
00:43:53,070 --> 00:43:55,258
your faith in God

177
00:43:56,410 --> 00:43:59,943
and something significant
will be given to you.

178
00:44:01,671 --> 00:44:02,708
Don't hide...

179
00:54:16,647 --> 00:54:19,911
Before everything went black
there were many layers of light.

180
00:54:20,986 --> 00:54:26,286
The more often there were nights without light,
the brighter they seemed to him.

181
00:54:26,554 --> 00:54:31,777
Because of the plethora of battery-powered flashlights
and cell phone screens were blue

182
00:54:32,084 --> 00:54:35,502
and louder - because of the generators,
turned on all over the city.

183
00:54:36,270 --> 00:54:38,689
When everything works, the world is quieter.

184
00:55:17,319 --> 00:55:20,276
He tried to imagine
what minutes look like

185
00:55:20,430 --> 00:55:21,889
when the electricity goes out.

186
00:55:22,810 --> 00:55:24,769
Looks like waves of light.

187
00:55:25,345 --> 00:55:28,801
The quiet light is leaving
and a loud light comes.

188
00:55:29,185 --> 00:55:32,295
The quiet light shines a little brighter than the loud one.

189
00:55:32,526 --> 00:55:36,250
Quiet light is warmer
and loud is more blue.

190
00:55:37,249 --> 00:55:39,246
When he saw it, it was so.

191
00:55:41,550 --> 00:55:42,510
But in a different way.

192
00:55:43,393 --> 00:55:45,082
Everything is always different.

193
00:59:26,996 --> 00:59:29,377
He woke up in an unfinished house.

194
00:59:30,030 --> 00:59:33,562
It was cold. He stood
barefoot on a frozen puddle.

195
00:59:34,714 --> 00:59:37,671
He didn't remember checking in
to an unfinished hotel.

196
00:59:38,247 --> 00:59:39,322
Could this even happen?

197
00:59:40,398 --> 00:59:43,162
Now he wasn't sure
but one thing was clear:

198
00:59:43,738 --> 00:59:47,502
he stands naked and frozen
in a bare brick building.

199
00:59:48,615 --> 00:59:51,380
Maybe he's still sleeping
and the dream is not over?

200
00:59:58,138 --> 01:00:01,671
He covered his head with a blanket
and tried to get some more sleep.

201
01:00:02,324 --> 01:00:05,626
He felt that it was too much
many dreams were not completed.

202
01:00:07,930 --> 01:00:12,001
Large pot-bellied gypsy
sat on his bed in rags

203
01:00:12,346 --> 01:00:15,610
and sweetly explained
that all is not lost yet.

204
01:00:16,954 --> 01:00:18,721
The dreams slowed down.

205
01:00:20,410 --> 01:00:22,292
They floated as viscously as lava.

206
01:00:22,830 --> 01:00:23,905
But only for now.

207
01:00:26,900 --> 01:00:29,857
The moment will come
when the dams break,

208
01:00:31,431 --> 01:00:35,079
and then they will all live here,
in the paradise they built,

209
01:00:36,423 --> 01:00:40,148
in this promised land
palaces and rocky gardens.

210
01:10:29,703 --> 01:10:34,004
They say the villagers have left
due to an imminent earthquake.

211
01:10:34,810 --> 01:10:37,498
Settled on the slope
on the other side of the valley.

212
01:10:40,954 --> 01:10:44,756
They say that old buildings
in Apice they are too dilapidated,

213
01:10:44,948 --> 01:10:46,138
that's why no one came back.

214
01:10:50,746 --> 01:10:54,740
People didn't have to say goodbye
because on the other side of the valley

215
01:10:55,662 --> 01:10:58,926
the past is always
right under their noses.

216
01:11:00,270 --> 01:11:02,382
Just a couple of steps and you're home again.

217
01:11:03,457 --> 01:11:05,108
Maybe that's why
no one returned -

218
01:11:06,298 --> 01:11:07,604
because it was so simple.

219
01:11:21,428 --> 01:11:22,388
Evening came.

220
01:11:23,041 --> 01:11:25,537
On the opposite slope
the lights came on

221
01:11:25,959 --> 01:11:29,185
and empty old houses
plunged into darkness.

222
01:11:32,026 --> 01:11:33,601
Probably strange feelings
arise,

223
01:11:33,678 --> 01:11:36,135
when you see how every evening
your past fades into darkness -

224
01:11:37,518 --> 01:11:41,626
in inexpressible confidence,
that in the morning it will still be there.

225
01:13:19,815 --> 01:13:22,695
The guys quickly found out
that gifts will be distributed.

226
01:13:22,849 --> 01:13:25,345
The situation was becoming
louder and more demanding.

227
01:13:27,111 --> 01:13:29,953
Some spoke to him in Wolof,
others - in Fula,

228
01:13:31,028 --> 01:13:32,218
someone tried in French.

229
01:13:32,948 --> 01:13:36,750
But he didn't speak French well,
and the guys didn’t know English.

230
01:13:42,586 --> 01:13:45,159
But since they firmly decided
stay and chat with him,

231
01:13:46,196 --> 01:13:49,076
they tried to speak with names
famous football players.

232
01:13:50,804 --> 01:13:52,954
About each player
everyone had an opinion

233
01:13:53,300 --> 01:13:57,486
chant or short demonstration
with a half-deflated plastic ball.

234
01:14:03,399 --> 01:14:06,318
When the owner of the grill bar
I'm tired of this

235
01:14:06,855 --> 01:14:10,158
he rudely sent all the little ones
world champions at home.

236
01:14:13,345 --> 01:14:16,916
Then he sat down and finally
clarified the discussions

237
01:14:17,031 --> 01:14:20,487
that in Africa Mourinho -
it is the embodiment of everything and everyone.

238
01:14:24,442 --> 01:14:27,591
"I adore Mourinho
because he is a winner."

239
01:14:31,930 --> 01:14:35,962
If no language helped,
and the Tower of Babel rose,

240
01:14:37,038 --> 01:14:40,378
new vocabulary
gave the names of football players.

241
01:14:42,529 --> 01:14:47,713
Instead of "I" - "Ronaldo"
because you see yourself in it.

242
01:14:48,519 --> 01:14:52,359
Instead of “I adore” - “Messi”
because everyone loves him.

243
01:14:53,358 --> 01:14:57,582
Instead of "Mourinho" - "Mourinho"
because you can't change it.

244
01:14:58,081 --> 01:15:02,497
Instead of "because" - "Boateng"
because it sounds logical.

245
01:15:02,842 --> 01:15:06,337
Instead of "he" - "Rooney"
because he is the most courageous.

246
01:15:07,604 --> 01:15:11,559
Instead of a ligament - "Ribery",
because he is real.

247
01:15:11,905 --> 01:15:15,361
Instead of the article "a" - Alves,
because the first letter is the same.

248
01:15:15,668 --> 01:15:19,239
And instead of “winner” - “Drogba”,
because he is a winner.

249
01:15:20,430 --> 01:15:25,306
Syllables were lost, stuck together
and it turned out something like:

250
01:15:26,190 --> 01:15:29,415
"Ro Messi Mourinho
boate ru ri al drogba".

251
01:15:30,682 --> 01:15:34,369
So something might come true
for all of Africa.

252
01:15:35,636 --> 01:15:36,596
Hallelujah.

253
01:18:22,100 --> 01:18:25,441
The little chicken was
It's hard to jump on one leg.

254
01:18:25,825 --> 01:18:28,513
Taking a careful leap
towards the feeder,

255
01:18:28,858 --> 01:18:31,162
he looked around, checking
is everything okay,

256
01:18:31,623 --> 01:18:35,194
is she still there, has she disappeared?
the world around her.

257
01:18:37,076 --> 01:18:40,148
And to make sure
that no enemies are approaching,

258
01:18:40,801 --> 01:18:43,297
which can be taken away from him
healthy leg.

259
01:18:44,833 --> 01:18:48,634
Crippled leg
he pressed it to his body.

260
01:18:49,556 --> 01:18:53,166
Flapping his wings a little,
he took another leap forward,

261
01:18:53,665 --> 01:18:55,393
having difficulty maintaining balance.

262
01:18:56,430 --> 01:18:59,271
Then another cautious one,
but a defiant look.

263
01:25:25,882 --> 01:25:28,071
You should be able to hide here.

264
01:25:29,108 --> 01:25:30,375
If not here, then where?

265
01:25:31,566 --> 01:25:34,215
But he was white. White and foreign.

266
01:25:34,983 --> 01:25:36,135
He didn't belong here.

267
01:25:37,479 --> 01:25:40,436
He could wander through the forest for a long time
unnoticed

268
01:25:40,590 --> 01:25:43,546
but sooner or later
I would come across a village.

269
01:25:44,353 --> 01:25:47,847
Even if he could stay there,
get food and shelter,

270
01:25:48,308 --> 01:25:50,535
one day a policeman would stop by,

271
01:25:51,073 --> 01:25:55,834
and him with an expired passport
give it back to the world

272
01:25:56,487 --> 01:25:57,524
like everyone else.

273
01:25:59,060 --> 01:26:00,673
He thought about it for a long time,

274
01:26:01,556 --> 01:26:05,972
but it seems the man had nowhere to go
move to become invisible.

275
01:26:07,009 --> 01:26:11,655
There were no such untrodden places
where documents are not needed.

276
01:26:13,114 --> 01:26:18,183
But in his head everything sounded like a song
old thought from childhood:

277
01:26:19,988 --> 01:26:21,217
"The world is so big.

278
01:26:22,407 --> 01:26:25,287
There must be a place where you can
hide and they won't find you."

279
01:26:27,092 --> 01:26:28,628
Harper could be that place.

280
01:26:29,281 --> 01:26:30,778
At the far end of Liberia,

281
01:26:31,738 --> 01:26:33,658
at the southern tip
West Africa,

282
01:26:34,580 --> 01:26:37,153
where did the dream of returning end?
home from slavery

283
01:26:37,690 --> 01:26:39,572
at the end of the bloodshed
civil war

284
01:26:39,841 --> 01:26:43,258
is a city built
with almost playful pomp,

285
01:26:43,834 --> 01:26:47,444
spacious and sleepy,
on a literally virgin beach.

286
01:26:50,746 --> 01:26:52,090
Harper is hard to get to.

287
01:26:53,281 --> 01:26:56,583
No one except a couple of dandies
Pakistani UN employees,

288
01:26:56,698 --> 01:26:58,158
there is no reason to come here.

289
01:27:00,193 --> 01:27:02,382
He walked up the stairs
dilapidated house

290
01:27:02,689 --> 01:27:05,914
and from the remains of the balcony
made a short speech

291
01:27:06,030 --> 01:27:08,526
which no one wanted
listen and didn’t understand.

292
01:27:09,716 --> 01:27:14,132
Only the girl carrying on her shoulder
gasoline in a large mayonnaise jar,

293
01:27:14,439 --> 01:27:17,473
stopped in the middle of an intersection
and smiled at him

294
01:27:18,087 --> 01:27:21,006
while he is like a madman,
made his request:

295
01:27:22,849 --> 01:27:24,001
"Please hide me.

296
01:27:24,999 --> 01:27:27,226
Give me a room in one
from your big houses.

297
01:27:27,418 --> 01:27:29,070
A room overlooking the ocean.

298
01:27:29,799 --> 01:27:31,335
Make me palaver soup.

299
01:27:32,487 --> 01:27:36,788
Talk to me until I understand
your tongue, and do not give me away.

300
01:27:38,554 --> 01:27:43,470
Until I'm here that long,
that they will stop seeing me."

301
01:39:06,682 --> 01:39:08,871
HE SHOULD HAVE LISTENED

302
01:39:08,986 --> 01:39:12,673
BUT HIS STEPS MUCHED THE QUIET
NOISE OF DRY BUSH

303
01:39:12,788 --> 01:39:17,050
AND THE RUSHING OF GRAINS OF SAND THAT
THE WIND CROSSED THE SURFACE.

304
01:39:19,354 --> 01:39:20,353
HE STOPPED.

305
01:39:20,468 --> 01:39:23,425
BEFORE HIS EYES
THE PURPLE DANCED AND CRACKED.

306
01:39:24,961 --> 01:39:26,266
THERE IS NOTHING ANYWHERE.

307
01:39:26,382 --> 01:39:30,145
AND NOT HERE. BUT HERE
NOTHING WAS ALREADY VERY CLOSE.

308
01:39:33,716 --> 01:39:37,556
SOON HE COULD DO ALMOST
1000 STEPS WITHOUT OPENING YOUR EYES.

309
01:39:37,671 --> 01:39:40,321
AND HE NOT ONLY SAW
DANCING PURPLE.

310
01:39:40,436 --> 01:39:44,007
HE FELT LIKE HIS
THE SAND IS FLOWING ON YOUR BARE FEET.

311
01:39:45,658 --> 01:39:49,153
OR HE SAW HOW IT WAS BUILDING
LIGHT AND SAND DANCES.

312

MICHAEL,

01:40:44,868 --> 01:40:45,828
PALAVER SOUP IS ALREADY ON THE TABLE.

327
01:40:45,904 --> 01:40:47,248
WE ARE DEEPLY APPRECIATE
FOR THAT

328
01:40:47,325 --> 01:40:48,976
WHAT DID WE SPEND WITH YOU?
PART OF OUR LIFE.

329
01:40:49,053 --> 01:40:50,205
EVERY MOMENT WAS A HOLIDAY.
