This city was destroyed three times.

First - the Saracens, then - the Normans, finally an earthquake.

But the survivors are always built it in the same place.

“No one managed to root them out of here.” - There are 3,000 expatriates around the world.

Work like animals, set aside Last money to save for a house.

- With one dream - to return ... - Not only ...

How are you doing with the students?

More or less.

But one thing I understood: they never object and do not say. So?

- How did it happen that you were assigned here? - Not appointed, transferred.

Translated from Sondrio, and there I was transferred from Grosseto.

And before that - from Turin. 8 translations for the same reason.

For what?

Lack of respect for the authorities.

“No one will touch you here for a year.” - A very long year, it seems to me.

You can always count on me.

Very nice thanks.

I want to talk to the host about renting. Who is he?

Once was the owner of these places. And now - no one.

I know I know.

- I came to thank you. - Thank for what?

- I came to determine ... - Here please.

- You have a great home. - Yes.

- It is as if isolated from the whole city. - And there is.

- Sit down. - Thank.

This liquor is my heritage family, my father was very proud of him.

Caution, you just need to sip ...

... to feel it erotic properties.

Bellocampo Advocate, about the apartment ...

Discuss it with you or do you have a manager?

With me.

- How much do you charge? - Not at all.

- Enough that you are satisfied. - But I ...

- Do you like it convenient for you? - Yes, just great!

The apartment is simply created for a single woman.

Indeed, the house was built in 19Z0-m.

Father built it for my sister. At 18 years old ...

... she decided to become a nun and live in solitude and prayers.

She died young, and the house was empty for 40 years.

I am an empty dwelling always reminded of death.

Why didn't you give it before?

I am very devoted to the memory of my sister. There was no one worthy ...

... live where she lived.

Do you think I am worthy?

You gave me an apartment before as I arrived, not knowing anything about me.

At first I was hoping, and now I know.

Honor, let me treat you. cognac. I have been waiting for you for a long time.

I like you all especially what is not visible ...

Get out, you rascal. Scoundrel!

What kind of people! Shitty city!

Signor Villars!

- Who did this? - Unknown.

Naturally.

No, he had no weapons.

Only wallet with 50 thousand lire.

This is not a robbery.

Caution!

- Who is he? “Calogero Villar, signor investigator.”

- З2 years, merchant. - Merchant than?

All that is sold and bought.

Real estate, oranges, cars ...

- Criminal past? - Forcing ...

Secret emigration, extortion, illegal hire, personal abuse ...

9 times released - for lack of evidence. Politics?

Seen in the voice trading - during the election campaign ...

... helped Senator Cataudella convince voters.

- Relatives? - this old man and yet father - in the hospital in Palermo.

We have a hundred motives for crime, and not a single version, right?

I agree that we have 100 motives for crime, ...

.. but I think 99 of them we can exclude.

- Signorina Bardi? - Yes.

- You should come with me. - With you? Why?

I can not know. I am instructed forward you to the ward.

Now? But I have classes.

We have already warned the director. I ask you to.

Did something happen to my mother?

No, fortunately. Investigator wants to ask you some questions.

Let me introduce myself - Okkipinti. Sit down.

Did you know any Calogero Villar?

Is he from this city?

No, I arrived two days ago, few people know.

- And Villar knew you exactly. - I said no!

- Why you're asking? - He is tall, young, brunette, elegant ...

Not.

Come here please.

- Look carefully. - Holy heaven!

- He is dead! - Exactly!

Killed at night from 5- charging revolver.

They put a flower in his mouth and fixed it in the chair.

You all saw. Want to say you did not know about it?

Why i had to know something about it?

I went to school and saw nothing.

Nobody told me anything. How do I know something?

- Yet you admit that you knew him? - You can say so.

“Why did you initially deny this?” “Because I didn't see him.”

You asked me about some Villars ... I didn’t know his name.

What do you want from me? How am I connected to this story?

Perhaps unrelated, signorina, but there is one detail.

A flower in his mouth ... So what?

This has never happened. Usually, a dead person is put a stone in his mouth.

That means he talked too much. Sometimes they shoot him with big shot.

It means, that he sold - cheap.

Or if he is cut off, sorry for the expression, this ...

- Penis, if you understand me. - I know that word.

And put it in his mouth.

That means he abused trust and insult ...

... the honor of other people. But a flower is something else.

Something older than that not been used for hundreds of years.

It is said: He who offends a flower, from the flower will die.

Indeed, nice custom.

And who in this world can compare with a delicate flower, signor bardi?

- Police. - No, a woman.

A beautiful woman.

Like you, for example.

We know that Calogero Villar last night ...

... publicly insulted you on the square. True or not?

It is true that in your area you can insult a woman with impunity!

Where were you last night? And your carabinieri?

What is your city? Yes, this man insulted me ...

Unknown person insulted me at all, ...

... and no one even raised a finger!

“But notice that he was killed.” - And I killed him!

Imperceptibly pulled in the middle square, sat on a chair ...

... and put a flower in her mouth.

Or they could ... charge someone who ...

... already left town and to whom we can not reach.

Scum history ... What shit did I get? ...

Signor Director, sorry for being late.

I brought them into the garden when I realized that you linger.

Maybe you want stay a few days at home ...

You want to say, I should not come to school?

I just wanted to support you.

Show solidarity all teachers.

We are glad that you work for us, it is an honor for us.

Go on, children!

Good morning! Is the weather getting better?

Yes, the climate, for some reason, better and better ...

I'm afraid, even too much ...

Hello Signorina Bardi. Hold for a minute ...

I have an important conversation with you.

I am Agostino Profumo, ...

... radio correspondent and newspapers Palermo

I would like to ask you some questions don't be scared. Just a few seconds.

But who are you?

Are Sicilians born or made?

- You, what is your name? - Calafiore Sebastiano.

- Your father, what is he doing? - He is a stone.

- What do stone-stones do? - Crush stones, very ...

... tired - the stones must still be loaded ...

He does the work that nobody wants to do.

- Signorina Bardi! - Take me home, please.

- But what do they need from me? - Nothing, take it easy.

Here, let's go here!

- Safe and sound. - Luckily.

They won't do anything to you, they know that the carabineers are watching them.

- I hope so. - Calmed down? Can I leave you?

I don't want to be alone, let's go.

Afraid the whole city finds out that I dragged the man to my home?

Not.

Absurd! They think i killed or forced kill villars.

What is the craziest the investigator thinks so too.

And all the others too. Why they take off hats please?

I can not understand why?

Indeed, for some reason they think that you needed to kill him.

And there is. This is what scares me!

And you? What do you think?

- I do not think anything. - How is it - nothing? Fool!

Well, where are you?

Offended?

Or are you scared?

Oh well ...

All right, go.

Leave me alone.

And you too ...

“More coffee?” - Yes thank you.

I'm afraid I bother you with your problems.

No, I'm just a little sad.

This is a small town that has noble and wild story.

Thanks, Nuccio, you can go.

But what happened just barbaric.

That is why for many years i keep the shutters closed.

I keep the illusion that there is going on something other. What I would like.

You never open them?

Open if i want participate in that life.

Now I will do it more often - because on stage a prima donna.

You also think that person killed because of me?

Take a look.

Dr. Sanguedolche. His 30 year old career helped a lot ...

... marriage to a certain Capodieci from Palermo, beauty and the rich.

Not even three months ... Somehow the young wife unexpectedly entered ...

to the stables at their villa in Montreal, and saw her husband ...

How to tell?

She found him naked, on all fours, give yourself to another man.

18-year-old boy, servant.

- Oh my God! - The real tragedy.

If we assume that Villara charmed the doctor, ...

... and then he refused or trying to blackmail ...

Did I make it clear? But this, of course, is only a hypothesis.

And here, look: handsome and solidity itself.

Mayor, lawyer Liola, nicknamedUgore.

Why such a nickname?

Slippery, zigzagging, often changes direction.

Began our Lyola, as liberal monarchist, then ...

... gone over to the Social Democrats. And for 500 hectares of citrus groves ...

... became a loyal son Christian Democrats.

At your service, just re-elected senator kataudella.

The master of life.

Villarra was associated with Cataudella.

In politics, today's assistant tomorrow may become uncomfortable.

So, he will have to shut his mouth even a flower.

It is possible that to confuse the effect.

And what kind of man is Professor Belcore?

In the city they call it Michele the Philosopher.

He always looks so sad as if he alone knows the truth ...

... and suffers from the fact that it is hidden from others.

In reality, he is nobody ...

... on this scene of mine. Certainly not the main character.

He is just an understudy.

- Unable to kill? “I didn't say that.”

I do not think that in our area there anyone unable to kill ...

... or be killed, according to circumstances.

That is why I left from the stage. More coffee?

Too long my family tried to change something.

As a result, we are always only something destroyed.

But I am convinced we could do something.

Now when on stage prima donna, with her ideas, faith, ...

... enthusiasm, sense of responsibility and beauty ...

- Charming. - What can I do?

Be a teacher. To educate, develop ...

Of course, but who? 8 children come to school from S1.

And you ask yourself why they do not come and from where they do not come.

Here, for a start.

Read these books and walk around the city. Not by area, ...

... along the lanes, distant streets. Go to the ghetto quarter Fimar.

- Many of your students live there. - Yes, I will go.

Just do not go alone, I do not advise.

Already 30 years, as I leave the house only, to go to the village.

But for you, I will make an exception: I will make you a company.

For you will call Nuccio.

BLOOD FLOWER FOR YOUNG TEACHER

Did you see it? Can i now ask a few questions?

Wait, I'll explain everything. I am a journalist.

What do you want from me? Leave me alone.

No, wait!

You heard the investigation found something that indicates ...

- I do not want to talk to you! “But this is for your own good.”

Last night from your home a man came out.

If you call him, I will tell you what is known to the investigation.

- You scoundrel, scoundrel! - We will agree ...

Michele, stay overnight.

I want to be with you all night.

I also really want, but I can not.

My mother won't fall asleep if i don't come back.

That's not the point, is it?

And in what?

That tomorrow you have to go out from this house in the light of day?

Even at night you cover your face with a scarf.

I do this only for you, Elena.

In order not to spoil my reputation!

Listen well: my reputation has nothing to do with it!

You can tell everyone that you sleep with me.

I do not care, what others think.

I give you the right to inform everyone, that you sleep with the teacher Bardi.

No, Michele!

The point is the director, the mayor, investigator, who else is there?

This is Profumo and his newspaper. Why are you silent?

No, sorry. I'm stupid.

Only thing that has for me value, - do not lose you.

Only one fear that you no longer come.

Michele ...

Agostino, this is clearly fists. You are beaten, it is violence.

- I fell off the bike. “Did you see them?”

- I fell off the bike. “Sooner or later they will kill you.”

- You want to know too much. - Much to know ... what about, doctor?

For example, yesterday you molested that teacher in front of everyone.

- I desperately needed ... What's wrong with that? - Yes, desperately ...

We get up ...

- to carry you to the house? - No need, thank you.

- So, fell off the bike? - Yes, I fell.

- And you will not report to the police? - There is nothing to declare.

Sebastiano. Sebastiano!

- We will help you. - What happened, signora teacher?

- The car will not pass here. - Wait for me.

- Are you a new teacher? - Yes.

This is my brother, and those are my sisters.

Are you mother Sebastiano? I am a teacher of Bardi.

Your boy is brave, attentive. Successfully move to the next class.

- And how many children do you have? - Nine.

But four died two from paralysis and two from meningitis.

Four ...?

I can't go on like this How can I get help?

- What kind of help? - Benefit from the city council.

My husband applied three times, but they didn't even answer.

They don't care they get paid.

And my husband can neither read nor write. Here they also use it.

And he can not emigrate - he has 3 fingers missing.

It's a blessing that you came to us! Remember us: family ...

... Calafiore. We all know everything will say how poor we are.

Come in, I'll show you a husband, you will see that I am not deceiving you.

He has been sick for two weeks now.

- Here is my husband. - It is he who works with stone-stone.

I will try to help you. I do not know, can i but i hope.

Signora teacher, remember and my name: Papalia Rosaria.

I have seven children, my husband's name is Papalia Francesco, he ...

... works as a bricklayer but found work only in Switzerland.

“And my husband is in Germany.” - And my in France.

First I’ll take the Calafiore family and then we'll see.

- God bless you! - Goodbye.

- We also rely allowance! - We have no water in the house!

- And there is no light! - The whole quarter without sewage!

- Enough, home! - We need a special law!

- There is no water, no light! - Basta, home!

- I'm just a teacher! - You can, you can!

Did you hear them screaming? You can.

This is for the same reason. All - for the same reason.

It would be funny if it were not so awful ...

And you laugh. What is important is not the cause, but the effect.

You have credibility. Take advantage of them and do something for these people.

You see how they live, right?

Why, all the same, me?

They shouted: Special Act, - what does it mean?

Special law on the development of the region, providing for construction ...

... plumbing, roads, cheap housing.

Every election campaign from my balcony I hear these demands, ...

... and Senator Kataudella for many years promises all this to voters ...

... to enlist their voices.

Then he is re-elected and promises remain promises.

About 7 years ago he introduced draft law to parliament, ...

... where he is stuck to this day.

- Seven years? - Yes, seven years.

Indeed, a special law.

Keep calm.

Remember that the poor respect you and admire you.

And the rich, on the contrary, are afraid.

- This is true. You still see this. - Goodbye.

Home, Nuccio.

Please pass.

These are my employees. We are at your disposal.

Would you like some coffee? Freshly ground.

- Prefer liquor? - I prefer benefits for the poor.

Did you say Calafiore?

Yes. Five children in one a shack and a sick father.

- It must be Guboshlep. - This is a nickname. Excuse me, ...

... but many poor people are here know by their nicknames.

Rich too dearUgor.

He is lying, in a serious condition, he has can be anything: typhoid or pleurisy.

And they die of hunger.

These people are good at simulating you need to be very careful with them.

Once upon a time harvesting olives, ...

... I wanted to hire Calafiore for three days.

For a moderate fee: I gave him 2,000 lire a day, ...

... but he demanded 5,000, because it was decided by the unions.

If a person does not want to earn, he is not poor.

- And now give them a guide! - So what are you suggesting?

Letting him die because he declared that 2,000 lire is not enough for him to live?

Or wait while a special law get off the ground in parliament?

No no. After necessary formalities ...

... family Calafiore for tomorrow evening will receive benefits.

- Thank you. - We are grateful to you.

Counting on your support.

If there is anything else that deserves attention, always at the service!

Help!

Hey you!

Stand still

- What is your name? - Passalacqua Salvatore.

Stay here on the square, near the motorcycle, ...

... and do not let anyone to him until i come back.

- Why? - Because these two are dead.

What the fuck is this! Incredible things happen here!

Last time in the middle of the square planted a dead man ...

... with a flower in your mouth. Just an advertising campaign!

And now the two dead arrived on a motorcycle.

- Who are they? - Unknown.

- In the city they do not know. - Palermo number plate.

And what the hell brought them here?

And when? Who put them on a motorcycle and brought to the square?

What are carabinieri doing in this city?

Despite the bad weather, we patrolled tonight ...

... and continued to monitor the house of relatives of Villars.

- We're few. It would be necessary ... - I know what to do.

To destroy this city, house after house, take apart brick by brick.

Place population on ferries, buses, trains ...

... and send! 100 in Trieste, 100 in Cuneo! Where far away!

To rake, to fence in barbed wire under the current, ...

... so that no one is ever here no longer settled!

- How were they killed? - It looks like a decent caliber revolver.

And no one heard the shots. How many were there?

Six wounds detected. Two and four. But they should be undressed.

Not! Do not touch them. Captain! Move them to the office.

- Untie them? - No, do not untie.

And along with the motorcycle!

Yesterday you admired how they killed me. Today you are bowing.

What kind of people are you? Scoundrels!

Signora teacher, Signora teacher!

I kiss your hands! Yesterday we were informed about the benefit.

We were given medical care and free drugs. Thank.

Thanks for the good you did. The Lord will reward you.

Do not mention it.

Double coffee please.

- How much do I have to pay? - All paid.

- By whom? - Help yourself, signorina.

Thank.

Let go

Signorina Bardi.

Signor investigator asked you arrive at the office.

Signor investigator requested!

I was just going there to file a complaint with the carabiner.

No, please come here, signorina.

How alive, right?

Who is it?

- You should know them. - No, I do not know them.

Sure you never saw them? Think hard.

I have nothing to think about. I have already said that I do not know them.

I have nothing more to add. Best regards, thanks for the presentation.

Stop or I'll arrest you!

Go inside.

Information from Palermo.

What is your relationship with senator Kataudella?

Perfect. I know his name.

What are your views? I mean political.

I voted for the divorce.

It is a crime?

Do you belong or belonged earlier to extremist movements?

Why do you ask this?

What is the attitude of politics has to this story?

Such as Villars and these two related to politics.

All three were henchmen of Cataudella, and you know it!

Well, that's that! You dragged me here and demonstrated two corpses ...

Signorina Bardi, are they really alive? Do you have sticks of dynamite?

Another pointless question and I won't open my mouth anymore. Clear?

Take a good look on these two people.

- You still claim that never seen them? - Never.

Not true! You're lying!

Yesterday they attacked you, knocked down and dragged by the hair.

I have a bunch of witnesses. You saw them at least once.

- Why do you persist and deny it? - Because I'm afraid!

I'm afraid of you and your methods.

Yes, they attacked me, but I don't know why did they do it.

I just do not know!

I was heading towards you so that apply. Confirm!

But I wanted to blame two living, not two the dead you want ...

... hang on me like that with a flower in your mouth. It is so?

Who else do you mean?

The man was rude to you - and killed. Coincidence.

These two attacked you, to avenge the slain.

And they are dead too!

Another coincidence? Not!

Two matches inspire confidence in me!

What does this freak need of me?

They can kill me at any time and I still do not know why.

Signorina Bardi, How can I help you?

I was looking for one person I think he came in here.

Is there a way out?

There is a vestry room and exit to the alley.

- No other way out? - Only these.

Thank.

ARNALDO MARIA BELLOKAMPO 1898-1944

Is not it true, sublime and enlightened.

Another such church no in the whole province.

- Bellocampo? - Yes.

Poor brother is the master of your house.

And how is it that there is no one there?

This is a sad and cruel story, which I prefer not to remember.

Have you been looking for someone?

I don't know him, little with protruding hair.

- Oh, Piturro! - Who is it? Do you know him?

Poor man, poorer than poor.

Lives that helps janitors.

They pay him for Z00 lire, and each night he sweeps the streets instead.

I pay him 500 for cleaning the church.

“But why do you need him?” - I need him for some reason.

He followed me, followed me everywhere.

And he has abnormal eyes ... And then he turned and disappeared here.

Do not be afraid, he probably I wanted to ask you for help ...

... but did not dare - he is very shy and wild.

His dream is to emigrate like many others.

But with such a look ...

Maybe he hopes that with your support, with your influence ...

Of course, I am now a force.

Do you have any wishes? Do you want to become a bishop?

Ask, it's free.

You have enough worries about the poor, with their poverty, their problems.

Your reverend, I also have problem and very important.

I want to get away from here as far as possible.

Disappear, hide from this crazy place.

Stay with the world, Reverend.

My God, I fell asleep!

Forgive me, I decided to wait, but I'm afraid I scared you.

I need a little bit now.

But you had good intentions, I hope.

Yes, I used my the position of the householder ...

I wanted ...

Give compliments to the first actress ...

... and fill her dressing room with flowers.

Comedy failed, right?

Signor lawyer, how do you drama turn in the second act?

I wanted to express my regrets about what happened.

Now I understand that I chose improper and untimely way.

But I am only old man with fads.

It never even occurred to me you need to be alone.

- Forgive me. - Please stay.

Excuse me, I'm a little nervous.

I do not want to be alone.

See it.

See what I bought.

Maybe you will be better in this company.

No, signor counsel. I thank you for the flowers.

Thank you for coming, you are the only one. kind man in these parts.

But if everything is as the investigator says, and there is evidence ...

... then who killed them? Why were they killed because of me?

Not a brilliant idea, but ... what if someone is secretly in love with you?

Please do not joke.

Looks like I lost my sense of humor.

Must remain at the disposal of justice.

In case anyone else head in to beat me.

In the near future nothing will happen Keep calm.

No one dares pull you by the hair.

Three dead weigh more in Sicily than any other place.

Excuse me.

Good evening, professor.

Good evening, signorina.

Good evening, signore lawyer.

Come in, have a drink with us, settle down

I passed by, decided talk about school matters ...

I did not know ... It doesn't matter we'll talk tomorrow.

No, professor, stay, I was going to leave.

You came on time. Entertain Signorina ...

... support her. I will not bother you.

Our school needs you, Elena.

If you leave us, many will sorry, not just me.

Leaving my key, maybe you will come in handy. I have no other.

I spend you.

- What was he doing here? - What are you doing here?

- What did he want from you? - What do you want from me?

Go away, we have nothing to talk about.

You are a scoundrel!

Where have you been when those two beat me up?

I waited all night for you!

Where were you today when mocked me during interrogation?

Answer me!

Do not go ...

Kretinka!

Elena, forgive me. Open up

Let me in.

The killer is sleeping now too ...

Maybe even sleeping in my arms ...

Sit down.

- Abalone Giovanni. - Here.

- Abalone Santina. - Here.

- Abalone Gaetano. - Here.

- Buscemi. - Here.

It may be easier if you say me who is missing?

My sister Margarita did not come, she has a fever.

And you, why did you come to school?

My mother sent me.

And you, Bushemi? And me - the father.

- And me - the father. - And they both sent me.

- And me. - Me too.

And why are they all of you sent to school?

Do you know this, children?

I know the reason.

And not sure that it is correct.

They don't go to school please teacher.

They go to school because you yourself like it.

Learning is your responsibility and your right.

Do you know what is right?

- Saw it ever? - Not.

And you? Take a look.

- Did you see that? - Not.

Hello Signorina.

You have not seen this jacket anyone in school?

Look carefully, it is very important.

No I do not think so.

And why is this important?

He was found on the street. on the night of the double murder ...

... those motorcyclists.

Maybe someone was hiding behind columns and saw what happened.

Then he got scared and, running away, lost a jacket.

- Do you think it was a child? - The size is very small.

The child behind the pillars at three in the morning! Captain!

Anything can happen.

In one you are right: anything can happen in this absurd city.

Best regards, Captain.

2500 years ago wealthy Greek merchants ...

... and their families came from the coast ...

... to this magnificent theater.

They came to see the tragedies of Aeschylus, ...

... the most famous playwright of those times ...

... and listen to the speeches of Demosthenes.

Do you know who Demosthenes is?

He was famous antique orator.

And here he competed in eloquence with Gordja di Lentini, ...

... a lawyer and a philosopher.

Sorry i didn't want interrupt your lecture.

On the contrary, you added something improved it.

- Do you know me? - By name, ...

... and your reputation. To you about me I am sure also told.

Yes, of course.

Children, we have a very important guest.

I know, I saw him in the square with the flag, he shouted about politics.

Today he honored us coming without a flag, ...

... to tell about interesting things.

Continue your story about Gordja di Lentini, Senator Cataudella.

His statement is known: The truth does not exist ...

... And if she existed, we wouldn't know about her ...

... And if they did, they could not tell others.

Is this a mafia motto?

No, just brilliant sophistry. Words, just words.

Although impressive. Do not agree?

No, senator, I do not agree.

For me, truth exists.

These are the conditions of life in these parts. These are the reasons ...

... on which the most important law remains blocked in parliament for 7 years.

And it is true, signorina.

You are a stranger in Sicily. Not stayed here for a month, ...

.. and the feeling that they had here a thousand years or more.

People die because of you. People kill because of you.

You now hold in your fist the whole neighborhood.

Who is behind your truth, Signori Bardi?

You are too worried what is hidden from you.

And you should be enough, and what you see.

See the facts in person.

If I wanted to, thousands of your voters ...

... would not vote more for you.

A few dead will confirm this crude truth.

They were all my people.

It is an accident or a warning?

It is a fact.

And this talk about a special law, who gave me the mayor ...

Should I take it, how is the condition?

You are on the right track.

Unfortunately, I can not say more.

That is quite enough. You know how to make you understand.

My regards.

Honored and blessed ...

Promise me to forget all this at least for today.

Thoughts, concerns, investigators, ...

... senators - everything is left behind.

We have a beautiful day ahead in a great company.

Agree.

- What a strange place. - Every time it fascinates me.

Some useless, sad beauty.

This place is called: The hills of the first sun.

At dawn, they are the first illuminated by the sun.

- This is your land? - If!

For several centuries they were part of Bellokampo fiefdoms.

I do not know whose they are now.

Why don't they plant anything here let's say wheat?

Wheat does not grow on the stone.

Then - pastures or anything else.

No, too little grass.

You said: If. Why do you need a land that gives birth to nothing?

Earth can serve in different ways.

How?

You can stand on it. And say: This is my land.

This is my land.

Its a bit, but it is mine.

20 hectares of olives, forests, vineyards. All that I have left.

- Very beautiful. - Yes, and well maintained, with love.

Come, show you the house.

House? It is rather a castle!

- He is so big! - Even too much.

Too big for a lonely old man.

I was born in this room my sister and brother, Arnaldo Maria.

Here he died.

He was a man of rare qualities.

Seven years was elected mayor of these places.

In the time of fascism post called podesta.

And this is my room Julia's daughters.

She is married, living far away, already about 20 years.

It almost never comes here.

Is she the only daughter?

Come on.

My son Luke was a cadet during the war.

3 months after the start of the service he died in a submarine.

- So young! - He was not 22 years old.

Awful.

Yes.

Whole life ahead. And instead ...

All that he thought, hoped for, what could do ...

... happiness he could experience with a woman ...

Everything has sunk into the sea. And I will never know where did it happen

All I know is the date: January 12, 194Z years.

Grandpa, grandpa!

Sorry, grandpa. Sorry, signora.

Chao, Nicola. This is my grandson, the younger son of my daughter.

- The only man. - Nice to meet you.

Me too.

Sorry, but my hands are dirty.

And what are you doing?

- I collected firewood in the forest. - Are you tired? You are all sweating!

Don't worry, I'm fine.

Last week he had his glands removed.

They sent him here to He was strong in the company of his grandfather.

And they say that the tonsils for anything not needed.

Go and clean up we will have dinner soon.

Yes, grandfather. With your permission.

You must be be very proud of him.

And I want him to be all right.

- Do not stop. - Signorina Bardi, wait!

I have important news for you! Signorina Bardi!

I'll go out here, thanks.

Senator Kataudella called. On Monday, a special law ...

... will be presented to Parliament for urgent consideration.

Soon the fate of our places is completely will change. Do you agree?

Do you want to do any statement, signorina?

Not. Good luck.

I'm confused, I do not understand anything.

Michele, since I arrived, terrible things happened.

I know it, but there is and positive facts.

All children go to school Parliament is considering a law.

Yes, managed to extract some benefit from the situation.

Useless!

Why do you think law will not be passed?

This is all an illusion. Remember about the dead have offended you.

You don't want to understand that this whole city is dead, ...

... and no one will revive him, even you.

How is this possible?

How is it possible that the city died in which thousands of children live?

You are teacher.

How is it possible that you are not, at least compassion?

And why do I love you?

The man who was born here has ...

... three options: leave, leave home, ...

... family, friends, everything.

He digs a grave and buries everything in it.

Photos, memories.

He dies and is born again.

The second option - stay in this wretched country, ...

.. win a place under the sun and live by the grace of the host.

You sign up to a political party. In the union - the power.

And you take everything you can.

By any means: friendship, ...

... treason, violence ...

“And murder?” - And murder!

And finally, the third option: keep ...

... away from all this and drag out miserable existence.

Old country, old houses, prejudice, ...

... poverty and ignorance.

Eat and sleep when you have to, make love when it comes out.

To grow old ... And so on to the end.

And you chose it?

What happens you managed find something?

Not!

Take a look.

This came this morning express mail from the ministry.

And what is written there?

Don't you know? And do not even guess?

What should I guess? From the ministry?

I got a promotion.

Promoted for special merit, - official wording.

Promoted and translated in a more significant place.

In Taranto.

- What does it mean? - I'll explain to you.

Inconvenient investigator does not translate with the rise, ...

... if he investigates a banal murder out of jealousy or out of revenge.

There must be something more much more.

For example?

I do not know and do not want to know.

Someone else will do this. I did what I could.

But I would like to know how you got in this game, and what role it plays in it.

The most stupid, from beginning to end.

I do not understand how I got involved.

I do not know what's happening. And nothing understand. Why do not you believe Me?

It doesn't interest me anymore.

However, I do not believe you.

Congratulations, that you have gained such influence.

And I am very grateful to you for the promotion.

Well, well, let's say I believe you.

Take my advice.

Run away from here. From everything that happened.

From this city, from this whole story.

What would you like?

What do you want?

SINIORA TEACHER, COME IN THE CHURCH AFTER WORK

NONE ABOUT THIS DO NOT SPEAK. COME ONE.

Maybe they will kill me too ...

... and put in an empty tomb mayor like a saint.

Holy Bitch!

What are you doing here?

What do you want?

I was looking for you everywhere.

How did you know that I'm here?

Who told you?

I saw you enter.

What, are you afraid of me now?

Why should I be afraid of you?

What can you do to me?

What are you looking for?

What am I looking for? Try to guess.

I'm looking for the truth, Michele.

And I expect that someone I will open it.

You asked me for advice. So: run from these places.

- And forget everything that I saw. - Dead too?

And the killings? And this one universal fear?

I will not leave.

Someone is trying to clean up This is a place to go.

I understood this, finally.

But I also want to understand who pulled me into it and why.

I want to look them in the eye, understand who they are, ...

... and then debunk them in public.

Michele, there is also a fourth way survive in these parts.

And I chose it.

Even if I have to kill those people.

Nobody will help you.

You will not help, I know.

Have you ever tried free yourself, rebel?

One day, poor people will recover this country from the wreckage.

Elena, you are only a woman.

I am human.

And you, how are you - a man?

Professor Belcore, ...

... I told you the truth now you.

Do not be afraid, I will save the secret of confession.

When was the last time you felt what else is alive? When?

Speak!

When we were in bed together, of course!

Sure, you were alive then.

Come to me. What are you waiting for?

Perhaps you are braver than i think

Come on, make love here, maybe for the last time.

- Not! - Are you afraid that God will strike you on the spot?

Calm down, there is no God here, you will survive!

Leave me!

Michele, I hoped for a long time that you killed those people.

Because of me.

It would be awful but at least ...

Michele ... philosopher!

You - no!

The will of the people triumphed!

We finally got fair law, ...

... which meets centuries of age the aspirations of our people.

Sea! Sea!

A truly Mediterranean civilization. Big ports! Trade!

Today our land is doing first step into your future.

Century aspirations of our people ... Sea! Sea!

What you have won is yours forever! Forever and ever!

Bravo! Bis! Hooray! Hooray!

Wait a minute.

Signorina Bardi, what are you doing here?

I wait for the rain. And you?

- Do you have a meeting here? - kidding me.

I am preparing an article.

You talked about the sea. Why is this so important?

Because it will start soon construction of a large road to the sea.

It will start from the city and cross Hills of the first sun

You helped the adoption of the law so much ...

... and do not know this?

I know that the law provides construction of cheap housing, ...

... plumbing, hospital.

Yes, it was part of the complete project.

But allocations were not enough ...

... was therefore approved only its first part.

Everything else: plumbing, hospital - will be engaged later.

“What a crap!” - Why shit?

By the way, the Hills of the First Sun already planned for construction.

What the hell building up?

- Who will pay for the house? - Emigrants, very simple.

This is an error free calculation.

Thousands of emigrants set aside on average, 70 thousand lire per month.

After 10 years they will be able to buy house of 3 rooms.

3,000 houses each of 8 million ...

24 billion, signorina.

Not true.

I know everything. I conducted an investigation.

The hills of the first sun belong to Swiss company, ...

... located in Zurich. The company has only one owner.

Child, 11 years old.

- Baby? - Yes, but he has a guardian.

- Good evening, lawyer Bellokampo. - Elena, at this hour?

I brought important news.

Very important to you.

And for your grandson.

For Nikola?

As you know, parliament approved special law.

Only one part of it, naturally.

The most important part.

This law is really special.

Nicola, it's too late. We will finish the game tomorrow.

Good.

Good night, signora.

- Good night, grandfather. - good night, Nikola

- Sit down. - No thanks.

Explain why it is so important. for him and for me.

At least because of this three people died.

“But now I know why they were killed.” - Ah well?

Don't you know that?

Or do you still want to convince me what was it in my honor?

At least in the first case it was just that.

There are still people for whom guest is sacred.

Especially if it is a woman. Young and charming.

I remember the excitement I experienced when you first appeared here.

I did not come here to call some emotions.

I know you talked about rent that humiliated me as the master of the house.

It was not your fault they told you about me ...

Once he was the owner of these places, and now ... Everyone thinks so.

And then you ...

- Listen to me, sit down. - Dont touch.

What should I listen to?

All clear.

First - to generate fear ...

... and respect for the poor.

Then - to instill fear ...

... and respect in the mighty of this world.

A trusting idiot, Bardi's teacher, ...

... manipulate like a puppet. Move it like a pawn.

Move by move. The meanest and in an inhuman way!

Playing on my vanity, playing mine feelings, even my ideas.

Playing poor people who haven't light, water, a hole in the floor ...

... instead of the restroom. Who live in poverty, hunger and hatred.

And who believed in me!

Do not mourn them. They don't deserve it.

They live and they will survive. Such is their nature.

They are impossible to understand. So they were, and will remain so.

Well, why do you hate them so much?

Nuccio.

Make a lantern and make sure that it works fine.

And open the gate to the forest.

These planes were called flying fortresses.

Flight altitude is 9000 meters. Had 10 people ...

... and carried 5 tons of bombs to dump them on our cities.

Just before the end of the war he suddenly appeared ...

... low over the mountains. He was chased two German fighters, ...

... who tried to knock him down.

I was on top of a hill in the vineyard.

And I shouted: Destroy it! Kill them!

He fell with a crash slightly hitting the house.

And since then stays here.

The patrolmen who were looking for a plane I said that he flew over the hills, ...

... towards the valley.

Come on. Everybody is here left untouched.

Oh my God!

Why did you do it?

What does it mean?

For him.

I am amuse myself with the illusion that the death of the plane and these people ...

... were the price paid for his death.

Human sacrifice!

I do not leave the thought of a boy in a sinking submarine, ...

... died for many hours maybe days!

Maybe he prayed for help, but I didn't know where he was.

Many times I wanted commit suicide, ...

... throw out the window or shoot yourself.

But I convinced myself: Go on, go war, and someone must die ...

... so that enemies do not come to our homes and not trampled on us.

And then I saw people applaud American tanks, ...

... which entered our cities. And I ...

I still see my son's body, ...

... drowning in the sea. Deeper and deeper.

To the very bottom.

When the truce was signed, they rang all the bells.

The peasants filled the whole area. They seemed to be crazy.

Almost all from the quarter of Fimar. They screamed, swore.

They broke into the church and broke the glass tomb of my brother, ...

... the former mayor!

Pulled the body into the square and devoured him.

It seemed they were dreaming about it for many years ...

... and that was their ...

... their release!

And you still ask ...

... why I hate them!

Therefore, I closed up 30 years ago. in my house forever.

But after me will another bellocampo.

He is still a child, but with time, my grandson Nikola ...

... will replace me ... and my brother.

Of course, in these parts always must be bellocampo.

Enough, signor bardi.

Agree.

You will kill me here Or should I wait for the killer at home?

What are you talking about? You can not imagine danger to me.

Your assumptions are insane absurd, no one will listen to them.

There is no evidence, no witnesses.

Yes Piturro!

Jacket ... Jacket that just fit a child.

Goodbye Signorina Bardi.

Goodbye, Bellocampo lawyer.

Perfectly, Peturro has seen the killers.

Therefore, he was looking for me, he appointed me meeting, he wanted to tell it to me.

He did not have the courage, but he will talk, i will make him talk.

Help!

Come to the rescue! Get out!

They killed Piturro, they will leave! You have been deceived!

There will be no houses or hospital. All the square! To the square!

You have been deceived!

Nuccio.

So silly.

Nuccio, even you born here understood nothing.

In these parts of the guest - with the c
