1
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:09,714
LAND OF HOPE

2
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,912
What has happened?
-Her husband has died.

3
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,231
Oh, Ester.

4
00:03:03,640 --> 00:03:06,075
I'm so sorry.

5
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,630
Wasn't Aarne in the same platoon?
-Yes.

6
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:18,669
Only one soldier
survived that ambush.

7
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,800
Bad luck for our son.

8
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:10,556
With better luck
the survivor could've been Aarne.

9
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:26,878
What can you do with a wounded horse
like that? -You can shoot it.

10
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,716
Can you do that
without the owner's consent?

11
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:34,270
A lot of people
have been shot lately.

12
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:38,149
These horses have seen action
on the front. Just like the men.

13
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:42,074
A lot of physical damage. And
other trouble. -What other trouble?

14
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,391
Getting scared of loud noises.
Being unpredictable.

15
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:49,599
They don't behave rationally.

16
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,560
Where's Liinu now?
-Out there, in the corral.

17
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:57,634
She bangs herself and the others
to the fence.

18
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:01,270
Out there she has room to run away.

19
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:06,949
Liinu, hey!

20
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,432
Come. It's Anni.

21
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,675
Come here.

22
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:41,473
<i>The destructive WW II
has marched over Finland.</i>

23
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,074
<i>Almost half a million Karelians</i>

24
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,516
<i>are heading for the unknown,</i>

25
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:51,150
<i>sadly leaving their homes to
the ceded areas.</i>

26
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:56,838
<i>Also looking at the future
are the war invalids.</i>

27
00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:01,118
<i>Their happiness is in the farming
of their own land.</i>

28
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:05,353
<i>That must be given to them,
that much we owe them...</i>

29
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:08,193
First, you build a sauna.

30
00:07:08,280 --> 00:07:11,591
Live in it the first winter.
And then, plough your fields.

31
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:13,956
Take me as your farmhand.

32
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,600
That's still far away.
-The own land?

33
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,433
I'll fill the papers
as soon I get out of here.

34
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,990
They are dividing lots as we speak.

35
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:28,554
What's so funny?
-Nothing. My eye hurts.

36
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:31,871
They won't give any land to unmarried
men. One has to get married first.

37
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,918
That's easier said than done.

38
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:39,477
Think about that. A house of your
own. -And a wife and a few kids.

39
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:42,837
Naskali? With a family?
-Yes.

40
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:47,994
Tar-assed lumberjack Naskali?
With wife and kids and a farm?

41
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:51,471
How about that, Veikko?
Could you manage that?

42
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,951
I seriously doubt that.

43
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:03,199
Get some rest. You're so pale
that it's an eyesore.

44
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:09,196
Don't feel pity for me.
Pregnancy is a self-inflicted wound.

45
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:14,400
The manager just came by.
Cutely cheering up the young mom.

46
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:18,360
My father?
-He said one more week and then out.

47
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,512
A lot of volunteers
to fill the vacancy.

48
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:26,151
Is that what he said? Well, it's
not his decision. I'll talk to him.

49
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,119
Don't talk to anybody.

50
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,354
Am I fired?

51
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:48,030
I don't see you for months. Then you
start pulling strings behind my back.

52
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,909
Firing pregnant war widows
as if I don't even exist.

53
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,595
War is hell.
Like the cavalrymen can tell.

54
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,711
Who's running this outfit?
-Wow...

55
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:03,633
Have you learned to pee
standing up?

56
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:11,194
Anni, don't you go anywhere!
You were supposed to run things

57
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:15,319
until I'm back from the supply corps
or until Aarne comes back.

58
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:19,758
You've only been covering for us.
That's all.

59
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,319
Can't I carry on, in his place?
-No.

60
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:26,589
Why not?

61
00:09:26,680 --> 00:09:31,277
I can't see you negotiating
about cargo costs.

62
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:33,874
Those negotiations take place
in sauna.

63
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:37,430
Drinking vodka, passing cigars.

64
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:41,957
What would you do there?
Wash the men's backs?

65
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,357
Anni!

66
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:30,234
She's my horse.
-Liinu?

67
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,517
She's recovering well.
Not so jumpy any more.

68
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:37,190
They say she can go home
after Christmas.

69
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:41,513
Anni Malmberg.
-Naskali. Veikko Naskali.

70
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,991
You're Aarne's sister, aren't you?

71
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,714
Aarne...
-...died in the same ambush. Yes.

72
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,679
I was there.

73
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:54,754
We were not given any details.
How did Aarne...

74
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:59,311
We rode into an ambush like fools.
There was nothing we could do.

75
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,994
It was a slaughterhouse.

76
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:06,677
It happened real fast.
He didn't have to suffer for long.

77
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,513
He died quickly.

78
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,718
His body was left on the enemy side.

79
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:16,350
My mom thinks he's still alive.
-No.

80
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:20,792
He's dead, for sure. I saw it.

81
00:11:21,680 --> 00:11:26,390
I don't know if the Russkies
bury them or not.

82
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:31,233
We always buried the casualties.

83
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:36,076
But how is Liinu, my old war buddy?

84
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,118
I'll steal some bread for you again.

85
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,352
Veikko will bring you some bread.

86
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,912
Is your rump still sore?

87
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,994
I must be, still sore.

88
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:58,152
The enemy shot you with a cannon.
To the ass. Direct fire.

89
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:02,199
Russkies shot you to the ass.

90
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:38,840
Hey, wait!

91
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,795
Bring it over here, to Aarne's place.

92
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:27,635
For God's sake, not here.

93
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,553
Put it to the side table.

94
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:37,390
Right. Anni, you sit next to Putte.

95
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:42,111
And Hilkka here, next to me.
Like always.

96
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,874
Please.

97
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:48,999
Putte, that boat of yours.
-Well, it's just a boat.

98
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,436
Quite a Xmas present!

99
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:56,070
A 28-feet ketch. German.

100
00:13:56,200 --> 00:14:00,034
Putte wants to have it repainted
before the summer.

101
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,236
We need to give it a name.

102
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,631
Boats are named after women.

103
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:09,236
How would Anni sound?

104
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:15,390
Let's start with the grace.
-Not aloud.

105
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:19,394
It would've been Aarne's turn
this year.

106
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,598
We'll, that's that.
Go for it!

107
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:32,194
The most lavish Xmas meal
in the parish.

108
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:36,558
Thanks for the ham, Kullervo.
-Thanks for the cognac, Kalevi.

109
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:40,918
And one more thank you
for Putte's civilian commission.

110
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:46,518
Yes. It was a nice commission.
To match with my studies.

111
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:50,673
Didn't have to be in the front,
to get killed.

112
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:04,474
What Putte was trying to say here...
-We're missing the butter.

113
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:26,237
Aarne?
-It's not Aarne.

114
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:59,113
I haven't had chow this good
since the old man's funeral.

115
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:04,400
So, your father has passed?
-That's an old sorrow.

116
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:09,839
Between the wars,
we were timber rafting.

117
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:13,476
And the logs got stuck.

118
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,518
The old boy rigged it up.

119
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,399
With a very short fuse.

120
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:22,836
He was always bragging
about that, drunk.

121
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,230
And a stroke of bad luck.

122
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:29,154
His boot got stuck between
two logs and bang!

123
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,038
That was the end for the old-timer.

124
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:36,718
The local priest
started comforting me.

125
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:41,829
Said my father was
a filthy drunkard and a sinner.

126
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:45,231
He wouldn't get to heaven.

127
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,834
Not even if the whole Christianity
was praying for him.

128
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:51,311
And one lumberjack said
no one can tell,

129
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:55,951
but that was the general direction
he was heading, anyway.

130
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:07,276
Right, Liinu? That Naskali fellow is
not the sharpest crayon in the box.

131
00:17:07,360 --> 00:17:11,797
Liinu and me, we're war invalids.
A little respect might be in order.

132
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:16,317
They almost spilled their wine
when they saw you coming.

133
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:20,951
I came because I feel we have
some unfinished business.

134
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:24,237
Thanks for bringing her home.
That means a lot to me.

135
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:28,109
We rode the same train.

136
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:31,750
I'll miss her.

137
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,879
Have you put on some weight, girl?

138
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:39,796
Veikko is spoiling you.
-Liinu's a pretty girl.

139
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:45,994
She likes Veikko, doesn't she?
-Liinu doesn't tell.

140
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:50,077
You can see it from her eyes.
-Can you?

141
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,039
Good thing I came.

142
00:17:53,120 --> 00:17:55,680
Is that so?
-Mm.

143
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:18,514
Kullervo. Here you are.

144
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:21,511
More cognac?
-Thank you.

145
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:26,800
Putte. Get the bottle.
And Veikko, over here.

146
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:31,160
That's the way.

147
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,998
Gentlemen. I'll pour.

148
00:18:39,120 --> 00:18:43,512
Anni. A little crush wasn't enough
in the old days.

149
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:48,356
Love didn't guarantee happiness.
There had to be other things.

150
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:54,516
And happiness came in due time.
From everyday life. Children.

151
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:58,116
These days it's just enchantment.

152
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:04,037
I can leave if you have something...
-We have no secrets.

153
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,117
Who is this Veikko?

154
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:11,471
Why do we suddenly have a lumberjack
at our table?

155
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:14,916
And you want us to take him
seriously. -A lumberjack!

156
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:19,153
Suddenly this poor clan of bakers
is a noble family

157
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,675
whose holy values are raped

158
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:23,797
by the sheer presence
of a working man.

159
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:27,271
You have to maintain a certain level.
-What bloody level?

160
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:32,117
You'll understand. If you want to.
-I don't understand.

161
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,153
What level was father
when you two got together?

162
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:39,598
Well, he was...
-What? A journeyman baker?

163
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:44,038
And you,
the princess of a cultural family.

164
00:19:44,120 --> 00:19:48,318
Whose house was this? Yours.
Who financed the bakery? You.

165
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,950
I can't handle this right now.
I'm so worried about Aarne.

166
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:54,395
Aarne's dead.
-Anni!

167
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,676
Veikko saw him die.
-He's lying.

168
00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:00,276
No, he's not.
Aarne's not coming back. -He is!

169
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,835
I'll be all alone. I have nothing
left. -You won't be alone, mother.

170
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:08,831
Don't you worry.

171
00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:13,596
Don't you tell me how to mourn?
I know how to do that.

172
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:23,078
Why did I speak to her like that?
-Pretty harsh words to your mother.

173
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:27,597
I don't know where they came from.
-You got angry because of Veikko.

174
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:37,277
I just don't like the way
she despises people like that.

175
00:20:37,360 --> 00:20:40,432
Well, you don't seem to despise
that Veikko.

176
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,149
Mommy got it all wrong.

177
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:54,950
He's not here on display. -Anni.
Do you know what you look like?

178
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:59,637
You look like mommy got it right.

179
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,990
Putte. Go to sleep.

180
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:14,440
What?
-Putte! Your pants are down.

181
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:18,070
Look after your son a bit.

182
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:29,159
Oops.

183
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:59,870
Good morning.
-Welcome. This is Birgit.

184
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:04,396
This is Ida.
-And Helvi.

185
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,551
Eeva.
-And Anja.

186
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,109
Aino.
-And Helena.

187
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,113
Here's Anna.
-Maarit.

188
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:13,998
And Eila.

189
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:17,630
This is Katariina.
-And this is...

190
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,120
We do have cigars.

191
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,910
The Germans gave them to me.

192
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,789
Nothing special.
But Cuban, nevertheless.

193
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:40,954
Why don't you leave when men
talk things over? Off you go!

194
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:52,070
Good. Let's start with figures.

195
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:57,032
What is your financial status?

196
00:22:57,120 --> 00:23:01,318
Two suitcases, that's all.
-And you're an invalid.

197
00:23:05,360 --> 00:23:09,194
I have a farm.
-A farm? Really?

198
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,159
Yes. Or I'll have one soon.
I'll fill an application.

199
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:18,475
Oh, I see. Boy, do you know
what a settlement farm is?

200
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:24,272
There're all sorts. Abandoned farms...
-It's not a farm.

201
00:23:24,360 --> 00:23:28,957
It's a state consolation prize
for those who were shot.

202
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,559
A small piece of wild forest.
Where you plough your field.

203
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,996
No roads, no electricity.
An uncultivated piece of land.

204
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:45,632
My wife tells me
you have plans for our Anni.

205
00:23:48,360 --> 00:23:53,719
An absurd idea.
Our Anni, out in the cold.

206
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,599
With the inevitable children.

207
00:23:56,680 --> 00:24:01,197
Among the vermin. Lice and
cockroaches. Like in the dugouts.

208
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:05,069
What have you been promising her?
-Only to love her.

209
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:10,394
And she was fine with that.
-To love her. But of course.

210
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,869
A girl like that. A woman.

211
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:18,672
Any man would love her. Also the sons
of my business associates.

212
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,673
Anni has a lot of choice.

213
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:25,196
But women tend to have
a taste of their own.

214
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:29,035
Are you fucking with me, boy?
-I'm not.

215
00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:32,475
Listen...

216
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,639
Veikko.
-Veikko.

217
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:43,274
As a father of a fallen son,
I'm asking you. Don't ruin her life.

218
00:24:43,360 --> 00:24:47,069
Choose a sturdy peasant woman.

219
00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:49,356
Leave Anni to boys
who are equal to her.

220
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:56,271
Or, why not, get together.

221
00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,559
But stay and work here.

222
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:05,110
This the best offer you'll get.

223
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:09,990
You'd be a bit like my own son.

224
00:25:12,360 --> 00:25:15,239
I don't want a new brother.
I want a man for myself.

225
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:20,349
How dare you? To threaten to leave,
in times like these?

226
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:22,829
From a house of sorrow?

227
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:27,198
How can you do this to your mother?
-What have you done to her?

228
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:30,750
Moving her around for years
as if she was a pot plant.

229
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:34,629
Very well, then. When Hilkka
graduates from business college...

230
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:38,076
Hilkka doesn't want to go there.
-She will.

231
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:42,358
And when she graduates,
she'll find a decent man.

232
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:47,640
Like that Putte over there. And we'll
make Putte the head of the company.

233
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:50,553
I see.
Well, is there a problem then?

234
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:52,870
No problem, whatsoever.
Things are peachy keen.

235
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:58,194
I'll just go and pack.
And then we're off, Veikko.

236
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:01,796
Don't even try to get
to her bank account! Scoundrel!

237
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:05,669
I'll have it cancelled tomorrow
when the bank opens!

238
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:07,996
Scoundrel.

239
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:18,789
I ask you, Anni Malmberg,

240
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:24,319
do you wish to take Veikko Naskali

241
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:30,555
to be your husband and promise to
love him, in sickness and health?

242
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:32,677
I do.

243
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:37,999
As you both have declared content

244
00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:42,916
to the question presented to you,
I pronounce you husband and a wife.

245
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:19,920
This is a serious matter.
It says here you're married now.

246
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:23,470
What? No way.

247
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:27,150
What now?
-Anni Naskali.

248
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,635
An amusing name.

249
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:35,836
Aarne's suit fits Veikko perfectly.

250
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:40,551
I am envious of you.
-About him?

251
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:42,631
Thank you.

252
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:47,277
This isn't a daily meal for me.
-It won't be in the future, either.

253
00:27:47,360 --> 00:27:50,716
Your standard of living
will crash down, Mrs. Naskali.

254
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:56,876
Anni. This is my, or actually
Aarne's wedding present for you.

255
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,436
It's his camera.

256
00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:03,990
That was our present for Aarne,
last Xmas.

257
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,959
It was in Liinu's cart when
it came back from behind the lines.

258
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:12,030
Nine pictures taken, three to go.

259
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,790
Thank you, Veikko. Thank you.

260
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:24,598
Time to say goodbye.

261
00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,991
We're not moving to America.

262
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:32,119
I can smuggle you some things.

263
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:34,999
That'd be lovely.
But only next summer.

264
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:39,119
We don't have much space in our hut.

265
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:43,034
I'll see you in the summer.
At the latest.

266
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:50,191
Right. Swallow your sorrow, sis.

267
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:54,114
You go that way
and we go this way.

268
00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:30,070
I know this place from the log
floating days. We've camped here.

269
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:33,790
This is where the tent was.
And the bonfire over there.

270
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:38,033
Estate number 72.
The Babel's Shore.

271
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:45,880
22 hectares,
6 has to be ploughed to farmland.

272
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:51,552
The donator is Mrs. Luukkonen,
a widower and a retired teacher.

273
00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:57,079
From this on, you do things here
in the order given to you.

274
00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:00,079
That is the condition
for the state-guaranteed loan.

275
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:06,879
Are you listening?
-Yes.

276
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:11,477
Listen carefully. I'm in charge of
a dozen-or-so cold farms like this.

277
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:15,275
I don't have time to advise you
twice. Do you understand? -I do.

278
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:20,433
You build your hut there

279
00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:25,640
and plough your fields
in the place we just saw.

280
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:29,350
Your neighbors are the Hiironen
family from the Isthmus.

281
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:32,876
They moved there
before the Winter War.

282
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:37,238
If Vertti Hiironen doesn't know
the answer, no one does.

283
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:48,918
Is that your wife?

284
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:31,830
Ohoy, wake up!

285
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:38,474
Is it lumberjacks again?
And a wench, as well.

286
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:42,315
For your knowledge, boy.
Those are my net markers there.

287
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,392
And by the reefs,
I have two fish traps.

288
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:48,313
So keep your hands to yourself.

289
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:56,195
Are you from the crowd
that stole my beer last summer?

290
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:59,636
Last summer, I was in the frontlines.
-My God! And you came out unharmed?

291
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:03,600
They marked my back a bit.
It looks like a sieve.

292
00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:09,551
Is that right?
Ain't that hell, war?

293
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:13,275
I am Vertti Hiironen,
from the other side of the cape.

294
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:17,911
Originally from the Isthmus.
And he's not my blood.

295
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:22,517
He's Iivo, he works for me. Iivo!

296
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:24,193
Davai!

297
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:28,552
Iivo.

298
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:32,115
Thanks.
-Iivo.

299
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:40,755
Keep an eye on that fire!

300
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:48,717
<i>From the earth of frost and cold
farmland's not made of gold...</i>

301
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:53,271
<i>You better learn to hump'n'horny
the woods will hear the noise</i>

302
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:58,150
<i>The itch is hot and corny
and won't be for little boys</i>

303
00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:02,871
<i>Your dad's got a bigger willy
but I guess that'll have to do</i>

304
00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:07,511
<i>It looks a bit small and silly
but what can a poor girl do?</i>

305
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:07,797
Don't tear it like that. How do you
pay for my net if it tears?

306
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:12,590
How can a slave pay? -Shut up, girl.
In front of strangers.

307
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:18,952
I am his third wife.
He always wanted a boy.

308
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,600
Even from the other two.

309
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:25,230
Iivo is from the Isthmus too.

310
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:29,996
His mother died
next to the evacuation train.

311
00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:35,314
The Russkies were shooting from
an airplane. She died in his arms.

312
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:46,231
Thanks.

313
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:51,711
Thanks.
-No thanks.

314
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,110
Pour me some, too.

315
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:07,556
You're going to be up shit creek.
Do you read me?

316
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:11,474
I can cut down the trees.
-Then your lumberjack work is done.

317
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:15,269
And your farmer work begins.

318
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:18,751
And then you're up shit creek.
With the stumps.

319
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,480
When you crawl in the mud,
black as a moor.

320
00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:25,997
Sweat and toil. Come the night,
the stump's still there.

321
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,276
And you're flat out.

322
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:32,519
They said that the state caterpillars
will do the hard work.

323
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:36,798
Right. They say a lot.
But do they have the time?

324
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:41,238
Come next summer, the fall,
another summer.

325
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:45,109
You should be ploughing, harvesting
but the stump's still there.

326
00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:47,430
And a hundred more.

327
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:51,838
Right. What's the point
of even trying? -Did I say that?

328
00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:55,311
No, I didn't say that.

329
00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:59,394
But it's going to be a long haul
if you don't use this.

330
00:36:05,720 --> 00:36:09,714
Veikko! What are you staring at?
Get a move-on with that axe!

331
00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:12,314
That's your tree,
your forest, your field.

332
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:15,472
Take a look, Veikko!
-Have you tried that?

333
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:19,872
I don't know. I haven't.
Not personally.

334
00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:26,036
You cut the roots from the side
where you want the tree to fall.

335
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:29,272
And then the tree falls,
ripping the roots from the ground.

336
00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:32,557
That's what's going to happen.

337
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:37,757
Iivo! He climbs a tree upside down
if I say so.

338
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:40,958
No need to do that!

339
00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:45,159
Take the rope, climb halfway up
and tie it there.

340
00:36:45,240 --> 00:36:49,279
Davai! Get going!
And girl! What are you?

341
00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:51,476
Anni.
-Take the end of the rope.

342
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:54,473
Tie the rope to the shaft
and take the reins.

343
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:58,269
And when we yell, the horse pulls.
Do you read me?

344
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:00,078
I read you.

345
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:09,880
Now! Go!

346
00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:11,633
Good.

347
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:17,271
Liinu. Liinu. Wait.

348
00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:21,069
Good.

349
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:25,029
Wait, Liinu.

350
00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:29,912
Liinu.

351
00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:18,876
Veikko! She's not a weak tit,
this woman of yours.

352
00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:21,713
But why do you have to slave away,
with a bad back?

353
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:25,998
I have a perfectly good hut.
The roof's a bit bent, that's all.

354
00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:27,832
God damn it!

355
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:32,356
She's an educated girl.

356
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:36,229
But swears like a trooper.

357
00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:41,599
What can I do? Must've looked at her
with an evil eye.

358
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:47,992
But you. You'll soon have
a baby on the way. Right?

359
00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:50,230
I'll help you with the delivery.

360
00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:54,234
I've seen how the bakery girls
handle that.

361
00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:59,315
Pregnant women, with two babies
screaming their hunger.

362
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:03,473
You don't doubt Veikko, do you?
Or your life here?

363
00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:06,279
You don't want to tie your leash,
do you?

364
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:09,352
Well, we don't know yet
how we can handle this.

365
00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:13,229
And what if the leash is not
strong enough? If it snaps?

366
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:18,110
You have to weave the leash again,
every day. Otherwise it won't hold.

367
00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,433
Put the whisk over your head.
-It's not a whisk.

368
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:34,431
It's a whisk.

369
00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:38,393
Good. Now, a straight face.

370
00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:44,999
Fire in the hole!

371
00:40:50,240 --> 00:40:53,358
Liinu! Liinu!

372
00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:54,953
Liinu!

373
00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:05,716
No problem. We've been in
worse places. Much worse.

374
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:09,236
Think about happy things.

375
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:14,440
New things. Don't think about
the war. What do you say?

376
00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:17,353
Do you remember the stallion?

377
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:20,990
He sure was well equipped.

378
00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:32,189
Easy does it.
There we are.

379
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:39,354
Two letters for you.

380
00:42:00,240 --> 00:42:05,474
Look. There's Aarne,
with Liinu's feed bag.

381
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:12,953
That Aarne, he was a laugh.
From a good family but never jaunty.

382
00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:18,718
This is taken in Ilomantsi.

383
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:23,636
Or what the hell
was the name of the place?

384
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:07,675
Are you OK?

385
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:18,229
Veikko! Veikko!

386
00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:25,198
Veikko!

387
00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:36,758
Veikko!

388
00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:33,552
Veikko.

389
00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:44,391
There. Good.
-Carefully.

390
00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:48,155
Lift him carefully.

391
00:44:48,240 --> 00:44:53,633
The other leg, too.
Good. That's the way. Off we go.

392
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:57,877
Veikko.

393
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:09,394
He'll come back, Anni.
You better believe it.

394
00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:58,751
There we are.

395
00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:17,076
Good evening.

396
00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:22,674
Maire Luukkonen, teacher. Emeritus.
-Anni Naskali.

397
00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:26,833
It was me who handed over this farm
to you. Have a seat.

398
00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:31,756
Or sold it, to the state.
But you knew that already.

399
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:34,195
My son Aatos was against it.

400
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,398
But he's an old-school fart.

401
00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:41,951
Let's open the backpack. I'm coming
from the Marthas Xmas work party.

402
00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:47,991
Here's some smoked lamb.
And ginger bread, of course.

403
00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:53,792
This package you can only open
on the Xmas Eve.

404
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:57,191
Here you are.
-No...

405
00:46:57,280 --> 00:47:02,195
And this is for Veikko,
in the hospital.

406
00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:05,830
Woolen socks and mittens.
And they predict

407
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:09,629
he'll need them this winter.

408
00:47:09,720 --> 00:47:12,997
How is Veikko holding up?

409
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:15,993
Last time I went, they said
it might take a while.

410
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:20,916
The old wounds need to heal
before they can operate again.

411
00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:25,870
He'll come back as a new man.
-Right.

412
00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:31,637
Are you afraid he's not coming back?

413
00:47:31,720 --> 00:47:36,112
No need to worry about that yet.
Your life here has barely started.

414
00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:41,115
After ten years,
you won't even remember this.

415
00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:48,034
I miss him, so much.
-Good. That's good.

416
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:51,750
It's good to have someone to miss.

417
00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:57,799
Do you miss the town?
-Not at all.

418
00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:08,517
Open the other package,
after all. Open it.

419
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:24,191
It's for you.
-Really?

420
00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:32,357
Merry Xmas, Anni.

421
00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:34,795
A very Merry Xmas.

422
00:48:56,720 --> 00:48:59,712
Liinu? God morning.

423
00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:05,594
Good morning. Look at that.

424
00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:09,150
Wasn't that nice?

425
00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:14,039
A Xmas breakfast.

426
00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:19,431
We have at least
some sort of Xmas, don't we?

427
00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:23,354
We do. Luxury.

428
00:50:04,760 --> 00:50:08,310
Is that for me?
-Yes. If you'd like to have it.

429
00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:13,918
I do. Thank you. I'll say.
-Just a little minnow.

430
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:18,392
We have bigger fish out there.

431
00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:21,313
How's my gramophone working?
-Sorry?

432
00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:24,711
My gramophone.
The one mother gave you.

433
00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:31,396
This is my shoreline.
Or was.

434
00:50:31,480 --> 00:50:34,359
I see. I didn't know.

435
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:37,910
What's done, it's done.
It's no use crying over it.

436
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:42,073
We have a lot of shoreline.

437
00:50:45,960 --> 00:50:49,191
Right. Aatos is the name.
My name.

438
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:53,751
Aatos?
Pleased to meet you. -I'm sure.

439
00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:57,390
I'm sure.

440
00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:04,031
Thanks.

441
00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:40,878
<i>Dear Veikko. I got some money
from the settlement account.</i>

442
00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:45,193
<i>Made some purchases.
We now have other animals.</i>

443
00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:48,910
<i>The cowhouse is almost done.
Thanks to the neighbors.</i>

444
00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:53,233
<i>You're embarrassed to read this.</i>

445
00:51:53,320 --> 00:51:57,632
<i>But I miss you all the time.</i>

446
00:51:57,720 --> 00:52:02,157
<i>I miss your laughter.
Your eyes, your touch.</i>

447
00:52:02,240 --> 00:52:07,360
<i>Even your limping jokes.</i>

448
00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:10,000
<i>Otherwise we're doing well here.</i>

449
00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:13,118
<i>It's good to learn new things.</i>

450
00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:17,876
<i>To see I'm up to hard farm work...</i>

451
00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:19,871
God damn it!

452
00:52:37,240 --> 00:52:41,996
What did he say when you took
the car? -Nothing. He was asleep.

453
00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:07,436
The horseflies are coming in.
It's so hot. Hush now!

454
00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:10,990
No one takes blood samples here
but the staff.

455
00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:16,751
Not a good moment to visit.
He was operated this morning.

456
00:53:16,840 --> 00:53:20,310
He's still in stupor.
Tomorrow would be better.

457
00:53:20,400 --> 00:53:26,794
May I sit here, for a moment?
-Of course. He is your husband.

458
00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:45,309
I was supposed to say this.

459
00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:49,633
It was a difficult operation.
Not always successful.

460
00:53:49,720 --> 00:53:53,395
So I told him there's a chance
he won't come around.

461
00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:56,916
What?
-No, no. He's already eaten today.

462
00:53:57,000 --> 00:54:00,595
But his level of consciousness
is varying.

463
00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:03,957
He asked me to tell you

464
00:54:04,040 --> 00:54:08,830
the wife, Anni, this,
with these words.

465
00:54:10,320 --> 00:54:14,712
I wrote them down. "Dear Anni.

466
00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:18,759
If I won't make it,
find yourself a new man.

467
00:54:18,840 --> 00:54:23,152
And check this time
that even his backside is OK.

468
00:54:23,240 --> 00:54:26,676
And don't cry for me.
I'm a happy man.

469
00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:29,957
I have met you
and I will go smiling.

470
00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:35,513
Take care of Liinu. Keep up
your fighting spirit. Veikko."

471
00:54:38,240 --> 00:54:41,517
And think about that.
Little girl is left behind.

472
00:54:41,600 --> 00:54:45,434
Liinu is a horse.
-Say no more.

473
00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:53,958
Anni.

474
00:54:55,720 --> 00:54:57,677
Kiss me.

475
00:56:13,720 --> 00:56:16,951
Your mother
didn't want to come at all.

476
00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:21,876
She's afraid that she'd cry,
making herself ridiculous.

477
00:56:21,960 --> 00:56:26,670
Well, that's always the danger.
-What's with that tone?

478
00:56:26,760 --> 00:56:29,070
Well, should I be sorry?

479
00:56:29,160 --> 00:56:31,993
About my mother crying
and being afraid of being ridiculous?

480
00:56:32,080 --> 00:56:36,597
You are twisting my words,
refuse to understand our feelings.

481
00:56:36,680 --> 00:56:40,514
We feel like we've lost
two of our children.

482
00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:43,274
I can't apologize
for the way you feel.

483
00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:46,796
Or the fact that things don't
always go as you've planned.

484
00:56:46,880 --> 00:56:51,238
But what should I apologize for?
Tell me.

485
00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:56,030
Hilkka has started to talk
about university. -Sorry.

486
00:56:56,120 --> 00:57:00,637
Now! God damn it! -Why
shouldn't I go to the university?

487
00:57:00,720 --> 00:57:05,669
I only get to play the boss while
you make all the important decisions.

488
00:57:05,760 --> 00:57:09,469
You won't have any of that.
-Of course not.

489
00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:12,916
But that's a different story.
-How?

490
00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:17,915
Always this.
Very well, let's be frank.

491
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:22,392
Is it because of me
and your mother...

492
00:57:23,840 --> 00:57:26,639
Sorry. -It's not a laughing matter!
Not at all.

493
00:57:26,720 --> 00:57:29,030
No, it's not. Sorry.

494
00:57:29,120 --> 00:57:30,918
Is it a small sacrifice

495
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:36,996
that we've slaved away for decades
covered in flour, breathing fumes?

496
00:57:37,080 --> 00:57:39,799
And you sneer at that.

497
00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:45,755
Is that a sin?

498
00:57:45,840 --> 00:57:49,151
To try to bring you up, to educate,
to make you decent human beings?

499
00:57:49,240 --> 00:57:51,595
Make you a better life.

500
00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:55,560
And a steadier future we've ever had.

501
00:57:57,200 --> 00:58:02,752
The sauna is warm.
Daddy, do you want to go first? -No.

502
00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:07,670
No, I'm not going at all.
God damn it. I'll sleep in the car.

503
00:58:24,480 --> 00:58:31,910
<i>All the memories so dear
all I have, nothing more</i>

504
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:39,953
<i>On my mind, pure'n'clear
days when there was no war</i>

505
00:58:40,040 --> 00:58:47,959
<i>My longing is with me, forever
not always easy to carry</i>

506
00:58:48,040 --> 00:58:55,470
<i>Your eyes won't leave me, never
your eyes always so merry...</i>

507
00:59:14,480 --> 00:59:16,073
What...?

508
00:59:18,280 --> 00:59:23,400
Morning, Aatos.
-We have started the harvest.

509
00:59:23,520 --> 00:59:28,594
Now already?
-The harvester broke down.

510
00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:32,310
That's why I'm sitting here.
-I see.

511
00:59:32,400 --> 00:59:37,190
Well, I could've fixed it myself.
But didn't feel like it.

512
00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:39,874
My man there is fixing it.

513
00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:44,432
I hear your man in the hospital
is dying.

514
00:59:44,520 --> 00:59:47,273
Mother knew.
-What?

515
00:59:47,360 --> 00:59:49,715
Yes, yes.
Haven't you heard?

516
00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:52,553
The whole village knows.
Two weeks.

517
00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:56,156
Well, good.
-What now?

518
00:59:56,240 --> 00:59:59,835
I thought it's recent news.

519
00:59:59,920 --> 01:00:01,957
But it's old news.

520
01:00:02,040 --> 01:00:04,998
I see. Damn.

521
01:00:05,080 --> 01:00:06,991
I already thought

522
01:00:07,080 --> 01:00:12,029
the pretty widow
makes a wife for old Aatos.

523
01:00:12,120 --> 01:00:15,238
That was a compliment, right?
-Yes.

524
01:00:15,360 --> 01:00:19,149
I have a big house and lot of land.
-I see.

525
01:00:19,240 --> 01:00:23,552
And a pig sty for sale,
for a good price. To your new house.

526
01:00:23,640 --> 01:00:27,713
Your mother promised that to us
for Xmas.

527
01:00:27,840 --> 01:00:31,470
She did? And chickens?
-Yes. And a cow.

528
01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:34,598
A cow?

529
01:00:34,680 --> 01:00:37,513
Not for free, of course.

530
01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:42,276
Of course not...

531
01:00:42,360 --> 01:00:48,550
But be in touch with the hospital.
We'll keep the offer valid.

532
01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:55,190
Davai.

533
01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:07,037
Let go off her! God damn it...

534
01:01:07,160 --> 01:01:09,800
Sister and brother!
-We are not siblings.

535
01:01:09,880 --> 01:01:13,191
You are! In the villager's eyes!
Damn it. Stop that licking!

536
01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:16,955
You don't know that.
And I'm not your boy.

537
01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:20,715
You are a madman.
A no-good old fart.

538
01:01:20,800 --> 01:01:23,189
Out of your mind!
Get the fuck off my face!

539
01:01:23,280 --> 01:01:27,433
Or I'll whack you!

540
01:01:27,520 --> 01:01:29,875
God damn, I'll hit you!

541
01:01:29,960 --> 01:01:35,717
Do that and I'll break your head!
-And you! Shall I say what?

542
01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:47,911
Veikko!

543
01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:10,716
You've been lacking this.
-You noticed.

544
01:02:10,800 --> 01:02:14,430
Yes.
-It was very enjoyable.

545
01:02:18,760 --> 01:02:22,515
It didn't hurt, did it?
-No.

546
01:02:32,640 --> 01:02:37,396
Are you quite well now?
Did they get the splinters out?

547
01:02:37,480 --> 01:02:40,359
The biggest ones, at least.

548
01:02:40,440 --> 01:02:44,593
Some are so deep
it's no use operating.

549
01:02:44,680 --> 01:02:49,800
In the surface, as you can see,
a lot of ashes.

550
01:02:49,920 --> 01:02:52,833
Tiny fragments.

551
01:02:52,920 --> 01:02:57,994
They move around,
having a life of their own.

552
01:03:00,520 --> 01:03:04,673
I don't want that again. What
happened to ya last winter. -No.

553
01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:10,631
Only minor flaws left.
Hard work will make me right.

554
01:03:14,920 --> 01:03:19,630
Did you just say "ya"?
-No way. What?

555
01:03:19,720 --> 01:03:24,999
I thought I heard "ya"
-Me?

556
01:03:25,080 --> 01:03:28,118
Well, ya.

557
01:03:30,480 --> 01:03:33,438
Could be.

558
01:03:49,560 --> 01:03:52,120
Kaisa. Let's step on it!

559
01:04:01,360 --> 01:04:05,399
Thank you, Veikko.
-You're welcome. Put it on.

560
01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:11,197
Give me a break!

561
01:04:22,080 --> 01:04:24,356
Look, what's in there?

562
01:04:24,440 --> 01:04:27,478
Come on, woman!

563
01:04:49,080 --> 01:04:53,517
Don't go there. Come here.

564
01:06:13,160 --> 01:06:15,470
I can't do this anymore...

565
01:07:45,440 --> 01:07:48,000
Nothing.

566
01:07:48,080 --> 01:07:51,710
Vertti said this is a good spot.
I'm not sure how this is done.

567
01:07:59,720 --> 01:08:04,317
Is that your net?
-You're still alive?

568
01:08:04,400 --> 01:08:06,869
Yep.
-When are the others coming?

569
01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:10,396
In the morning. We have the logs
floating behind the cape.

570
01:08:10,520 --> 01:08:13,717
Is that your sauna, at the bay?
-Yep.

571
01:08:13,800 --> 01:08:19,273
And a house a bit higher. -Look
at you. And a wife and everything.

572
01:08:19,360 --> 01:08:23,069
Anni.
-A bonny lass she is.

573
01:08:23,160 --> 01:08:28,030
You can bunk and bathe at my sauna.
Don't need to crash outdoors.

574
01:08:28,120 --> 01:08:32,478
We'll see about that.

575
01:08:32,600 --> 01:08:38,755
I must go. Check out that little
islet. Plenty of perch over there.

576
01:08:38,840 --> 01:08:41,559
See ya!

577
01:08:45,480 --> 01:08:49,155
You clean up that sauna.
-What?

578
01:08:49,240 --> 01:08:53,473
You clean up the sauna after the
jacks have left. -I reckon I will.

579
01:08:53,560 --> 01:08:58,031
I'm sure you will.
-If the missus is too fancy for it.

580
01:08:58,120 --> 01:09:02,956
Was it too much to ask me
if the men can stay there?

581
01:09:14,680 --> 01:09:17,593
Better get going.

582
01:09:22,960 --> 01:09:26,112
Come on! -I don't know how to be
in a party like this.

583
01:09:26,200 --> 01:09:29,636
Well, start learning. You have to
get to know our neighbors.

584
01:09:29,720 --> 01:09:33,793
If they're only neighbors, why do you
have that gadget on your head?

585
01:09:45,800 --> 01:09:48,838
Anni. From our village.
-Hi. Anni.

586
01:09:48,920 --> 01:09:54,074
Welcome. Father Iivo.
-Nice to have you here.

587
01:09:54,200 --> 01:09:56,635
Aune.
-Anni. Nice to meet you.

588
01:09:56,720 --> 01:09:59,678
Have you had coffee yet?
-No, came to say hello first.

589
01:10:03,920 --> 01:10:07,550
Looks like the light of faith
is burning bright with my mother.

590
01:10:07,680 --> 01:10:12,151
The belief in the fellowman. To her
they're saviors of our fatherland.

591
01:10:12,240 --> 01:10:15,835
How come you're tipsy, at this hour?
In front of children?

592
01:10:15,920 --> 01:10:19,276
Don't you start whining to me!

593
01:10:19,360 --> 01:10:24,150
Don't go anywhere, shithead.
Let's talk a little. You see...

594
01:10:27,320 --> 01:10:31,439
The state came for a visit.

595
01:10:31,520 --> 01:10:35,718
Saying let's cut out some land.

596
01:10:35,800 --> 01:10:39,395
To the Russkie Naskali.
The shore where I kept my boat.

597
01:10:39,480 --> 01:10:42,677
Maybe we talk when you're sober.
My wife's waiting for me.

598
01:10:42,760 --> 01:10:46,435
A wife and a wife.
Don't you wife around there.

599
01:10:46,520 --> 01:10:49,512
The state borrowed me the money.
I bought that land.

600
01:10:49,600 --> 01:10:51,989
But I wouldn't have sold it, damn it.

601
01:10:52,080 --> 01:10:55,232
Really, the wife's waiting.
-The wife.

602
01:10:55,320 --> 01:10:59,871
There are better men
around here, with no wives.

603
01:11:00,280 --> 01:11:04,592
Dear friends. A downpour will
be upon us shortly.

604
01:11:04,680 --> 01:11:08,355
A thunderstorm is coming.
We'll move indoors.

605
01:11:08,440 --> 01:11:12,399
We'll continue there.
Ladies, take over.

606
01:11:12,480 --> 01:11:15,632
Let's move
everything from the tables.

607
01:11:25,800 --> 01:11:32,035
Good thing the menfolk is listening.
Learning the advice of the Marthas.

608
01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:52,071
The new insecticide, DDT,
can be used for in powder form

609
01:11:52,160 --> 01:11:57,155
in an apparatus like this...

610
01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:04,517
<i>My darling's beautiful
although skinny'n'slender</i>

611
01:12:04,600 --> 01:12:08,673
<i>My darling's beautiful
although skinny'n'slender...</i>

612
01:12:08,760 --> 01:12:11,752
Let's dance.
-I want to leave.

613
01:12:11,840 --> 01:12:15,549
Don't you know this dance?
-Get going!

614
01:13:18,040 --> 01:13:19,997
God damn it!
-Veikko!

615
01:13:22,160 --> 01:13:24,993
Let go of me, damn it.

616
01:13:25,080 --> 01:13:30,280
Let go!

617
01:13:40,920 --> 01:13:45,630
Look at that.
Naskali and no tears.

618
01:13:45,720 --> 01:13:48,155
Look at that...

619
01:13:53,360 --> 01:13:56,159
The peasant
can't even get into his own sauna.

620
01:13:56,240 --> 01:14:00,120
Cause the Marthas have put a padlock
on the door. -Immonen, calm down.

621
01:14:00,200 --> 01:14:03,636
Have a sip.
-A corkful, no more.

622
01:14:03,720 --> 01:14:08,635
In honor of your old man. -If you're
your father's son, you will.

623
01:14:08,720 --> 01:14:11,872
He drank away his house and land.

624
01:14:11,960 --> 01:14:15,749
Maybe some other time.
I have work on the field.

625
01:14:15,840 --> 01:14:19,435
That's right. Kick, kick the turf.
You shitkicking hillbilly. Get going!

626
01:14:19,520 --> 01:14:26,916
<i>Our land, our Finland, our home
the land of fortune and fame</i>

627
01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:32,279
<i>All the places, wherever we roam
I'd like to...</i>

628
01:14:32,360 --> 01:14:36,911
We're going to paint the town
red tomorrow. Want to come along?

629
01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:38,718
We'll see.

630
01:14:38,800 --> 01:14:41,110
Are you crying, damn it?
-My eye's sore.

631
01:14:41,240 --> 01:14:45,074
He's crying all right. -Leave it.
And don't you weep, Immonen.

632
01:14:45,160 --> 01:14:49,313
It'll be alright again.
How about going to town?

633
01:14:49,400 --> 01:14:52,995
Maybe we should do it right now?
-Veikko. Come here.

634
01:14:55,920 --> 01:15:00,357
Listen to an older man.
Be sensible.

635
01:15:00,480 --> 01:15:08,911
Think about the cockroaches of
the lumber huts. The freezing cold.

636
01:15:09,000 --> 01:15:15,554
And your new, clean house and pretty
wife. Which one will you choose?

637
01:15:15,640 --> 01:15:20,794
Get away from us. Have a different
life than your father and me.

638
01:15:20,880 --> 01:15:25,078
This I'll say and speak no more.

639
01:15:26,600 --> 01:15:30,958
What? No.
-Veikko, do you have any money?

640
01:15:31,040 --> 01:15:32,997
Always the price of a cow.

641
01:15:33,120 --> 01:15:36,511
Well, let's get the show on the road.

642
01:15:56,200 --> 01:15:58,794
<i>Veikko, I can't watch that. I'm going
to Juuli's place for tonight.</i>

643
01:15:58,880 --> 01:16:02,714
<i>Please don't follow me.</i>

644
01:16:06,480 --> 01:16:09,757
Listen, jack!

645
01:16:13,840 --> 01:16:18,994
Let me sing to you!

646
01:16:21,440 --> 01:16:23,192
Take that.

647
01:16:26,160 --> 01:16:28,071
Show me the light.

648
01:16:34,680 --> 01:16:38,230
The wife's gone.
She's mad at me.

649
01:16:38,360 --> 01:16:42,433
Can't find any money.
And we're right out of booze.

650
01:16:44,240 --> 01:16:46,800
No use in crying.

651
01:16:46,880 --> 01:16:51,113
Immonen. Let's go. Come on.

652
01:19:59,440 --> 01:20:01,397
Anni?

653
01:20:26,200 --> 01:20:31,479
Anni, listen.
It wasn't hard to guess

654
01:20:33,040 --> 01:20:35,953
this was going to happen.

655
01:20:40,320 --> 01:20:45,156
I'm not holding any grudges.
Bygones are bygones.

656
01:20:46,760 --> 01:20:49,229
Let's move on.

657
01:20:49,320 --> 01:20:52,756
Let's play fair
and follow the rules.

658
01:20:55,240 --> 01:20:57,151
Girl!

659
01:20:59,920 --> 01:21:03,550
If you're going to do something
to yourself tonight,

660
01:21:03,640 --> 01:21:07,520
come to our place first.
We have tricks to everything.

661
01:21:07,600 --> 01:21:12,549
If you start killing yourself,
it might hurt a bit.

662
01:21:14,040 --> 01:21:16,156
Vertti, I'm not going to kill myself.

663
01:21:16,240 --> 01:21:21,030
That's what I thought.
Put those thoughts away.

664
01:21:25,840 --> 01:21:28,673
It has been paid.

665
01:21:30,320 --> 01:21:32,231
I see.

666
01:21:33,440 --> 01:21:38,037
Only the fuel?
How about the transportation?

667
01:21:41,640 --> 01:21:43,870
We'll pay it.

668
01:21:49,440 --> 01:21:53,070
What's this?
You don't often come here.

669
01:21:53,160 --> 01:21:56,118
I haven't had anything to do here.
But now I do.

670
01:21:56,840 --> 01:21:59,116
We're going to take Anni back,
without any conditions.

671
01:21:59,200 --> 01:22:03,433
And you're going to let her to run
this bakery, together with Hilkka.

672
01:22:03,520 --> 01:22:06,399
That is not going to happen.

673
01:22:21,360 --> 01:22:25,593
<i>Dear Anni. My letters are
just like wasting paper.</i>

674
01:22:25,680 --> 01:22:29,275
<i>Nothing special has happened
since the last one.</i>

675
01:22:29,360 --> 01:22:34,150
<i>I found some nails
and got the new floor done.</i>

676
01:22:34,240 --> 01:22:37,471
<i>Won't step in with dirty shoes.</i>

677
01:22:37,560 --> 01:22:42,634
<i>So it'll be nice and clean when you
come over. I'm counting on that.</i>

678
01:22:42,720 --> 01:22:46,475
<i>I've worked very hard
to get everything done.</i>

679
01:22:46,560 --> 01:22:49,951
<i>And in better shape
than it was before you left</i>

680
01:22:50,040 --> 01:22:53,192
<i>That's the only thing I can do.</i>

681
01:22:53,280 --> 01:22:57,319
<i>That is my excuse to get you back.</i>

682
01:22:57,400 --> 01:22:59,676
<i>I miss you so much.</i>

683
01:23:01,600 --> 01:23:03,591
Anni.

684
01:23:06,600 --> 01:23:11,356
Yes, yes. I can ask
your evident question myself.

685
01:23:13,520 --> 01:23:16,433
Should I tell him I'm not going back?
-You have to think about that.

686
01:23:16,520 --> 01:23:19,990
Now that we know
what kind of man he really is.

687
01:23:20,080 --> 01:23:22,754
Do we?
-Well, look what has happened.

688
01:23:22,840 --> 01:23:25,958
Quite a few things.

689
01:23:26,040 --> 01:23:30,193
I remember the excitement of
enchantment in the beginning.

690
01:23:30,280 --> 01:23:34,911
You and daddy and excitement?
-Now you're being mean.

691
01:23:36,080 --> 01:23:38,913
But the way Veikko speaks...
-To you?

692
01:23:39,000 --> 01:23:41,640
No, to Liinu.

693
01:23:41,760 --> 01:23:44,593
To the horse?

694
01:23:44,680 --> 01:23:48,753
Is it enough for you that your man
speaks kindly to a horse?

695
01:23:48,840 --> 01:23:52,879
He's not always kind to her.

696
01:23:52,960 --> 01:23:57,397
Sometimes he rebukes her
and curses.

697
01:23:57,480 --> 01:23:59,630
Sometimes he says obscenities.

698
01:23:59,720 --> 01:24:04,112
The tenderness in his voice tells me
he has a good heart.

699
01:24:05,320 --> 01:24:08,711
He's an orphan. Lonely.
Badly wounded.

700
01:24:08,800 --> 01:24:11,918
But not evil.
-Not an evil man?

701
01:24:12,000 --> 01:24:15,914
Although
he burned your house down, drunk.

702
01:24:16,480 --> 01:24:19,233
You can't trust a man like that.

703
01:24:36,040 --> 01:24:40,113
Very strongly made. I have enough
dry timber for one house.

704
01:24:40,280 --> 01:24:44,911
We'll make a deal; you cut the same
amount of wood from your land.

705
01:24:45,000 --> 01:24:49,039
Naskali can hardly run this farm
by his lonesome.

706
01:24:49,120 --> 01:24:52,192
It'll take two people.

707
01:24:52,280 --> 01:24:56,160
Have to say, the place is
very well planned and run.

708
01:24:56,240 --> 01:24:58,675
An example.

709
01:24:58,760 --> 01:25:03,072
But still...
-Veikko, we have the wife issue here.

710
01:25:03,160 --> 01:25:08,109
The word is that you are divorcing.

711
01:25:08,200 --> 01:25:13,639
That is not our business
but the farm is still state property.

712
01:25:13,720 --> 01:25:17,759
On paper, things don't look too good.

713
01:25:17,840 --> 01:25:21,151
So, why don't you just leave this
to others.

714
01:25:21,240 --> 01:25:24,437
We'll find another solution for you.

715
01:25:24,520 --> 01:25:26,591
What sort of solution?

716
01:25:26,680 --> 01:25:29,035
The settlement laws
have clauses for this.

717
01:25:29,120 --> 01:25:33,000
It's better to be sensible
and think about the big picture.

718
01:25:33,120 --> 01:25:36,158
There are still buyers
to these farms.

719
01:25:36,240 --> 01:25:39,392
In factories,
there are easier jobs for invalids.

720
01:25:39,480 --> 01:25:42,996
Soon in towns nearby.

721
01:25:43,080 --> 01:25:47,392
These people come to your land,
like a firing squad.

722
01:25:47,520 --> 01:25:50,353
Don't you have any scruples?

723
01:25:56,640 --> 01:25:59,678
We're standing at the ruins
of a war invalid's house.

724
01:25:59,760 --> 01:26:04,311
And you are preaching eviction.
With a calm fucking voice.

725
01:26:04,400 --> 01:26:08,439
Why don't you hit the road?
The saviors of our fatherland.

726
01:26:08,520 --> 01:26:13,799
That makes the big picture here
prettier. -Calm down.

727
01:26:13,880 --> 01:26:17,396
The officials have done
their share in this show.

728
01:26:17,480 --> 01:26:22,031
Desk war is war also.
Tough times, tough rules.

729
01:26:22,120 --> 01:26:24,634
I know nothing about that.

730
01:26:24,720 --> 01:26:29,590
But I do know that none of you were
there in the frontlines with him,

731
01:26:29,720 --> 01:26:32,599
defending this country,
this piece of land.

732
01:26:38,800 --> 01:26:41,633
This is the price he paid.

733
01:26:41,720 --> 01:26:47,318
Those long ditches are made by this
man. With the strength of this back.

734
01:26:47,400 --> 01:26:50,870
Do you understand
the pain he's been through?

735
01:26:50,960 --> 01:26:54,032
Shame on you, bastards!

736
01:26:54,120 --> 01:26:56,350
I haven't done this alone.
Anni has done half, at least.

737
01:26:56,440 --> 01:27:00,149
Poor her. Doing a man's work,
torturing herself to a half-cripple.

738
01:27:00,240 --> 01:27:02,800
Eating lousy food.

739
01:27:02,880 --> 01:27:06,077
And now,
when she wants to rest a bit,

740
01:27:06,200 --> 01:27:09,795
you come around
with your divorce gossip.

741
01:27:09,880 --> 01:27:12,793
Fuck you, I say.

742
01:27:16,920 --> 01:27:18,877
I have seen this life.

743
01:27:18,960 --> 01:27:22,271
You were still in your shitty diapers
when I was fornicating with women.

744
01:27:22,360 --> 01:27:25,478
Slaving away in work details.
I know these things.

745
01:27:25,560 --> 01:27:30,350
I'm not yapping my piehole
for a nobody.

746
01:27:33,320 --> 01:27:35,630
Whatever Veikko does or needs,
I'll vouch for with a smile.

747
01:27:35,720 --> 01:27:39,076
I'll see to it
that the house gets built.

748
01:27:39,160 --> 01:27:44,792
The wife gets back. And Iivo comes to
work as a full-time farmhand here.

749
01:27:45,320 --> 01:27:47,994
Right, Iivo?

750
01:27:48,080 --> 01:27:51,311
The farm is, bar the house,
in an excellent shape.

751
01:27:51,400 --> 01:27:55,553
It's out of my jurisdiction.

752
01:27:55,640 --> 01:27:59,873
But a test period sounds fair.
-A special permission is required.

753
01:28:00,000 --> 01:28:02,879
Apply for one, old man.
That's what they pay you for.

754
01:28:02,960 --> 01:28:07,830
The promises of the neighbor must be
included. -Give me a pen and paper!

755
01:28:07,920 --> 01:28:11,914
Half a year sounds about right?
Is that enough, Veikko?

756
01:28:12,000 --> 01:28:17,234
It's up to Anni. -A healthy woman
will need a bedmate in six months!

757
01:28:17,320 --> 01:28:20,119
Thank you...
-Don't you thank us, boy.

758
01:28:20,200 --> 01:28:23,431
They and me,
we're the grateful ones.

759
01:28:23,520 --> 01:28:26,638
You have done your share, manifold!

760
01:28:48,560 --> 01:28:50,756
This is the way!

761
01:28:58,800 --> 01:29:01,235
Knock, knock.
-Hi.

762
01:29:02,440 --> 01:29:08,630
Hi. I just thought there's something
I should've told you.

763
01:29:10,920 --> 01:29:14,675
Hilkka, can you call Mr. Hallberg,
immediately?

764
01:29:14,760 --> 01:29:19,357
I already did. Aren't you supposed to
help mommy with her knitting?

765
01:29:19,440 --> 01:29:23,718
Don't you, Hilkka!

766
01:29:24,920 --> 01:29:28,038
She's a tough cookie.

767
01:29:28,120 --> 01:29:30,919
Replaced half of the suppliers.

768
01:29:31,000 --> 01:29:33,469
The old ones have been swindling me
for decades.

769
01:29:33,560 --> 01:29:36,552
Didn't I tell you
she'll make a good boss?

770
01:29:36,640 --> 01:29:40,270
And the workers like her.
She's so fair.

771
01:29:41,080 --> 01:29:43,754
Listen, Anni.
-Yes?

772
01:29:45,080 --> 01:29:50,439
Ella and I
have started talking again. -Yes?

773
01:29:50,520 --> 01:29:54,354
I had forgotten what a great lady
has shared my bed,

774
01:29:54,440 --> 01:29:57,478
for decades.

775
01:29:57,560 --> 01:30:01,235
Life is not too bad, you know.

776
01:30:01,320 --> 01:30:04,199
I see. Was there something
you wanted to talk about?

777
01:30:10,560 --> 01:30:12,597
Let's make up.

778
01:30:16,840 --> 01:30:18,751
Why not?

779
01:30:40,280 --> 01:30:42,840
Listen, Veikko.

780
01:31:08,880 --> 01:31:13,670
The villagers will gossip mother to
her grave if I go to court over this.

781
01:31:16,200 --> 01:31:18,350
That's up to Veikko.

782
01:31:18,440 --> 01:31:21,796
He said he doesn't want to be
the judge or the jury.

783
01:31:21,880 --> 01:31:27,637
And it's also up to you because
you've built everything together.

784
01:31:30,240 --> 01:31:35,110
How could you do
such a terrible deed?

785
01:31:35,200 --> 01:31:40,115
I only remember thinking
how tiny it is.

786
01:31:40,200 --> 01:31:44,956
A tiny move of the tip of my shoe.
And with such horrible results.

787
01:31:48,240 --> 01:31:50,516
What's done is done.

788
01:31:52,440 --> 01:31:55,478
Go home now.

789
01:31:55,560 --> 01:31:59,793
Tell your mother
things will be all right.

790
01:31:59,880 --> 01:32:02,156
All things?

791
01:32:22,480 --> 01:32:25,711
Hello. May I come in?

792
01:32:25,840 --> 01:32:27,558
Yep.

793
01:32:29,640 --> 01:32:33,395
I thought I'd only find burned ruins
but I found a nice little house.

794
01:32:33,480 --> 01:32:36,359
Did you build that?
-The neighbors gave me a hand.

795
01:32:53,280 --> 01:32:57,114
I came to see you, Veikko.

796
01:32:57,320 --> 01:33:00,312
Because I don't know you at all.

797
01:33:00,440 --> 01:33:05,674
To me, what happens to Anni
is the most important thing.

798
01:33:05,760 --> 01:33:10,880
And I have to tell you that
after everything that has happened,

799
01:33:11,000 --> 01:33:14,959
you still seem to be
the most important person to her.

800
01:33:15,040 --> 01:33:17,270
Really?

801
01:33:17,360 --> 01:33:19,874
Anni told me she was surprised.

802
01:33:19,960 --> 01:33:25,797
When you were dancing and carousing
at the dance pavilion, not smiling.

803
01:33:25,880 --> 01:33:29,919
I can't remember
what happened that night.

804
01:33:30,000 --> 01:33:34,995
A lot of war buddies,
a lot of moonshine.

805
01:33:35,080 --> 01:33:37,071
You don't normally drink, do you?

806
01:33:37,160 --> 01:33:40,630
I had my share, watching
the old man drink when I grew up.

807
01:33:40,760 --> 01:33:45,550
I could tell liqueur is a devil
for a weak mind.

808
01:33:47,040 --> 01:33:49,429
I was looking around out there.

809
01:33:49,520 --> 01:33:52,797
How neat and pretty everything is.

810
01:33:52,880 --> 01:33:55,679
How hard you have worked.

811
01:33:56,840 --> 01:34:00,993
I had no idea how serious you both
were, with this dream of yours.

812
01:34:01,080 --> 01:34:04,198
We've done everything together.

813
01:34:04,280 --> 01:34:10,196
We built the house once, and then
it burned down. Anni had enough.

814
01:34:11,760 --> 01:34:15,594
She hasn't answered
any of my letters.

815
01:34:15,680 --> 01:34:18,513
She's not coming back.

816
01:34:35,160 --> 01:34:39,074
Maybe you should try one more time.
See her and apologize.

817
01:34:39,160 --> 01:34:41,071
As nicely as you can.

818
01:35:16,240 --> 01:35:18,277
I left with Liinu already. Follow us.
Keep up the fighting spirit. Veikko.

819
01:35:23,240 --> 01:35:27,916
This is not okay! Did you even ask
Liinu if she wants to return?

820
01:35:32,600 --> 01:35:37,197
Give that to me! -There you are.
Take her. The cart belongs to Vertti.

821
01:35:37,280 --> 01:35:41,274
Get away from me! -How are you taking
the horse? In the back seat?

822
01:35:41,360 --> 01:35:43,715
None of your business!

823
01:35:43,800 --> 01:35:49,955
Get away from me!
You've done quite enough here.

824
01:35:50,040 --> 01:35:53,476
What did you think, you fool?
That I'd follow my horse?

825
01:35:53,560 --> 01:35:59,078
And stay here as if nothing
has happened? Is that your plan?

826
01:35:59,160 --> 01:36:03,631
I've slaved away for months. Alone,
like a wet fart in pain and sorrow.

827
01:36:03,720 --> 01:36:05,950
And you want me here
to pamper you?

828
01:36:06,040 --> 01:36:09,715
Take that nag of yours
and haul your ass off my land!

829
01:36:09,800 --> 01:36:14,317
Your land? -It's my land
the second you walk out of that gate!

830
01:36:14,400 --> 01:36:16,869
But don't worry.
I'm not going to rot here myself.

831
01:36:16,960 --> 01:36:19,315
After the rain, I'm out of here.

832
01:36:19,400 --> 01:36:22,358
Just like that?
-I'm not staying without you.

833
01:36:22,440 --> 01:36:25,512
Everything here we've done together.
We're on a trial period!

834
01:36:25,600 --> 01:36:28,479
I have the paperwork inside.

835
01:36:47,360 --> 01:36:50,273
I'm not mentioned here at all.

836
01:36:53,040 --> 01:36:56,271
You could drag any female here.

837
01:36:56,360 --> 01:36:59,239
You still have a month left.

838
01:38:12,760 --> 01:38:16,640
NEW TIMES, NEW HORSES

839
01:38:18,320 --> 01:38:21,790
<i>Hello, Nieminen.
-Hello.</i>

840
01:38:21,880 --> 01:38:25,874
<i>You're still using a horse?
-Oh, yes.</i>

841
01:38:25,960 --> 01:38:30,033
<i>You haven't bought a tractor?</i>

842
01:38:30,120 --> 01:38:33,556
<i>I'm not sure if it's worth it,
in a small house.</i>

843
01:38:33,640 --> 01:38:37,110
<i>Many farmers must've asked
themselves the same question.</i>

844
01:38:37,200 --> 01:38:40,397
<i>And it's true that small farms</i>

845
01:38:40,480 --> 01:38:43,313
<i>should only acquire a tractor...</i>

846
01:38:48,480 --> 01:38:51,120
Immonen, hi.
-Hello, Veikko.

847
01:38:51,200 --> 01:38:54,955
Are you here to buy a tractor?
-Yes. I got some land, as dowry.

848
01:38:55,040 --> 01:38:58,396
Big fields but an old horse.
How are you?

849
01:38:58,520 --> 01:39:02,832
Came with the wife and the kids,
to look at the tractor.

850
01:39:08,920 --> 01:39:12,436
Agriculture
is the trade of the future.

851
01:39:12,520 --> 01:39:15,831
<i>Dear Hilkka.
The war is still close.</i>

852
01:39:15,920 --> 01:39:19,879
<i>But we bury the nightmares deeper
as we keep ourselves busy,</i>

853
01:39:19,960 --> 01:39:23,032
<i>dreaming about the future.</i>

854
01:39:23,120 --> 01:39:25,999
<i>At first the own land
had a different meaning for us.</i>

855
01:39:26,080 --> 01:39:30,119
<i>But now it's mutual And not only
the farm, but the whole life.</i>

856
01:39:30,200 --> 01:39:34,990
<i>The neighbors and the villagers. We
wouldn't have made it without them.</i>

857
01:39:35,080 --> 01:39:40,154
Keep a straight face!
-No, a happy face!

858
01:39:40,240 --> 01:39:44,518
One, two, three.

859
01:39:44,640 --> 01:39:45,960
Go!

860
01:39:48,760 --> 01:39:52,196
<i>My journey has taken me here,
to this moment and place.</i>

861
01:39:52,280 --> 01:39:56,592
<i>I've stumbled to my own feet
but I've also learned something.</i>

862
01:39:56,680 --> 01:39:59,991
<i>To be merciful.
To others and to myself</i>

863
01:40:00,080 --> 01:40:03,596
<i>You know me so well, Hilkka,
so you know</i>

864
01:40:03,680 --> 01:40:09,119
<i>I wouldn't say this
if I wasn't happy. And I am.</i>

865
01:43:08,040 --> 01:43:11,317
