What happened, Antoshka?

The wolves attacked animals. Dad is gathering people.

Faster, people... We must hurry.

Now they are well fed. They could not go far away.

Why are you standing there? Go home!

Elder... Wolves again? Can I possibly help?

You are not from our village, sir.

Continue where you're going. We'll manage alone.

Good day, Pavel Sergeyevich! Can I come along?

Good morning, Ivan Aleksanovich.

You can join us.

You'll help us a little bit and you'll have fun.

There is no other pursuits in our area.

Only hunting and chasing girls.

How could this happen, Ivan Aleksanovich?

You resent someone.

Someone from Ivaginski's. Do you know who?

They'll find out soon.

He escaped, bastard.

Imagine how we are walking through Paris.

Around us the beautiful stone houses...

Larger than our church.

It would be amazing.

Smells like the 'late' landlady.

Then do not smell it. - I will ventilate.

Oh, Vasya...

Well... Look...

Soon all these dresses will be mine. - Shut up!

VASILISA

What are you doing, sir?

You're shivering. Are you scared?

It's not that. - What then?

We should no longer see each other. It's not right.

What are you talking about? Why? - It's a sin.

Yes, sin. - It isn't, my dear.

You think I'd leave you?

Vanyochka, you are my landlord.

I'm just an ordinary girl. What could be among us?

Do not say that. I'll buy you from Ivagin. We're getting married.

In the worst case, we will escape.

I will never leave you.

Do you belive me?

I believe you when you talk like that.

I believe you, Vanyochka.

Good day, Maxim Zaharich.

I was with retailers across the river.

Take it!

Thanks for the scarf.

You shuldn't.

I will propose to you.

Accept. You will become Elders wife.

Come with me!

Wait, Vanjochka What are you doing?

Why not?

Be reasonable. Don't, don't...

Vasilyok, I wanted to tell you.

If I do not tell you, others will.

What?

Guests came. Mother asks me to marry,

but nothing happened.

How married?

How so? What will happen to me? - Vasilyok, darling...

Darling for her. - Vasilyok... Maryane is like my sister.

Not my fault that we were engaged while we were still kids.

Engaged?

What a fool I am! Where I've looked all this time?

Vasilisa, I promise. I'll talk to her.

You dropped this, madam!

Vasilisa is your sister?

Yes, madam.

Show your sister where is her place.

Come closer! I'll teach you.

Vasya! Vaska! Get ready!

We're going to Ivanov's.

Why?

To help an old lady. She doesn't have any girls.

She called us.

And Pushkin? Have you heard of Pushkin? Who is it?

It's a young man with dark curly hair.

Kind manners he has. And verses. Writing beautiful songs.

Do you want to read you something? - Mary, I...

I have to explain something.

Say, Ivan... You first.

I have something to tell you too.

Mary...

I can not marry you.

Forgive me.

I wanted to tell you the same thing. - What?

My heart is not with you, Vanya.

Really? Of course.

Vasya! Huh?

Come here!

What is it? - Your Vanya.

He is deceiving you. They will soon announce the engagement.

What do you think? Why do we clean the house?

What are you thinking? She is a countess.

And Ivan has no money.

You're just an ordinary girl. Like... Just for fun.

Sit. Why did you came?

I decided to marry you.

Go!

Well... I will not oppose your happiness.

Both go with God.

Wedding! The wedding!

Vasilisa marries Kozhina! The wedding!

Leave, sir! Do not go there! - Let go of me!

You're just playing with her. How will she live after that?

Get of me!

Vasilisa!

Back! Back I said!

Let her go! Get aside!

So, sir. Now we're even.

She decided. Vasilisa!

Tikhon! Prepare my baggage! Quick!

Are you going away? - God Will judge you, Mother!

Tomorrow I will join the regiment.

How is life here? - Look, you can see.

While I was in love I lived well.

And now I do not care.

Listen to me.

I will get your Kozhin a good job by the mansion.

But first he must ask the master.

Bravo, Dashka.

Once again, I'll listen.

Singing, holding back upright.

Tomorrow is the first winter ball.

I have not been on the ball for a while.

Vanya will come tomorrow. I've missed him.

Me too. - Me too.

Me too. I'd like to talk with him. - About what?

I want to go with him in the regiment.

Do not be ridiculous, Petya. Who would take you?

You're too young for army. I am not, I am not.

When the French reach the border, everyone can join. - You are being silly.

Mother, are you going with us on the ball?

My dancing times are over.

Believe me, gentlemen... Napoleon

is a great man. He brings prosperity to mankind.

What that means? He liberates people?

Possibly. Have nothing against it.

Please, Paul Sergeyevich... We dissuade our people

of vagrancy and poverty.

Russian peasants are uneducated and have lack of culture.

I do not think so.

And here's an example.

Vasilisa Kozhina, my peasant.

Come here!

She speaks, reads and writes French.

Is that true, Vaska?

Do not laugh, gentlemen.

Translate me, dear, this...

The lady took out a flower from her corset and threw it to his dear.

Vaska?

I do not understand.

Go! We will talk later.

No, gentlemen... You'll never convince me.

This country needs Napoleon. Excuse me, gentlemen.

Your Highness!

Listen to me. Your army loves you.

My people will go everywhere with you.

But this country is going to destroy us.

Why,

every time, when I come to a battlefield,

where I can be killed,

as well as my every soldier,

I am scared?

But every time I go forward, pushing that fear.

That's greatness, my friend.

Go inside!

Vasilisa, wait!

Why are you running away from me?

Talk to me. - Why would I?

Maybe you're right. I did ran.

I wanted to forget, but I couldn't.

I ran away so I wouldn't think of you.

Do not look at me like that... crazy.

No...

I remember you just like that.

From before.

I'm to blame for everything. That is why I am now responsible before God.

I am not yours, Vanya.

I am a married woman.

Your Imperial Highness...

Our scouts report that great Napoleon's army

crossed Neman river.

War.

Cossacks!

Brothers! We will not embarrass our fathers and grandfathers!

As they fought bravely and died for Russia, so will we.

We will not give an inch of native land! Bring us easy death!

For the emperor and homeland!

By my commandments, right flank! Charge the enemy!

Go! - Hurrah!

What is it?

I had a bad dream. - Just sleep, sleep...

Lay down, Vasilisa. - I am thirsty.

Will drink some water.

On this map is no bridge. Not far from here is a village. There must be a bridge.

We need to find a passage before the French army comes.

Luis, go there! I understand, sir.

Quiet. Careful. Forward!

Lord, please protect him.

You are compassionate and philanthropic...

And in sorrow and in joy... From enemies, visible and invisible...

Please...

Please save him, Lord...

Thank you Lord... And holy virgin...

Give it back! - Let it go!

Let it go!

Sir... Sir, please...

Kantana, do not harass the farmers!

We are not murderers. We are French. Madam, please accept my apologyes.

What is your name? - Vasilisa.

I am honoured.

We're leaving!

We're outta here!

Blessed Mother, what happened?

Makara, what did you do?

Godmother!

Fedzhka, bring water, towel... Right away!

Pavel Sergeyevich! For God's sake, listen to us.

Vasilisa, I will!

What happened? - Pavel Sergeyevich,

as my birth father I beg you...

Protect your peasants Makara and Yevdosiy

Zikov's and their children.

From what to protect them? Speak clearly.

They killed three enemies.

What?

They tried to rape his daughter.

Do you know what will happen now? Oh, Lord...

What kind of savagery? What kind of savagery?

What do you want from me?

Protect them, sir. - How can I protect them?

We will punish them. Do not turn them in, to French.

They will kill them immediately. - Why not give them up?

They killed French soldiers.

Allow to explain myself. - You're opposing your husband?

Daring sisters! Both of them.

Protect them. Justice is on their side.

War is going on, stupid. What justice?

If we begin to renounce him, we all lose.

What are you talking about, woman? Get a grip!

Help them, so help you God. Please.

Pavel Sergeyevich, Blie arrived.

Leave now! - Pavel Sergeyevich, talk with them! Talk to the French!

Get out of my sight!

Pavel Sergeyevich... - Walk!

Vasilisa!

Where are they?

I do not know. - Do not lie!

Where are you hiding those killers?

They are not killers. The soldiers raped their daughter.

So what? Are you still not used to it?

You are slaves. Don't your masters treat you the same way?

Where are Zikov's?

I do not know.

Do you understand that my soldiers can slaughter entire village?

Help me out.

How? - Bring me Zikov's.

I promise you that we will organize fair trial.

Can you talk to them?

I'll try.

Vasilisa, in different circumstances,

we could known eachother way better.

Can he be trusted?

I do not know.

Perhaps it would be better to escape, Makara?

No.

What will happen to the people in the village if we meet the French threat?

Innocent people will die.

We'll go.

Take me to him. I'll explain. - May God help you.

Vasilisa, what are you doing?

She does not belong here.

I'm old. I'll sit in her place. - Maxim, Blie promised that,

he will listen to Makara, and that they would receive a fair trial.

Go home! Go home!

And Blie? Blie promised a fair trial. Where is he? Where are you taking him?

Go back home! I'll make sure to give them a fair trial.

Wait!

Kantana!

Disembark the prisoners from wagons.

Where is your honest judgment? You promised.

Get down!

You promised a fair trial.

Come on! Run!

Come on, come on... Run!

Run!

Come on, run!

Run!

In the woods! Let's get to the woods!

Aim! Fire!

How is that possible?

How could they do that?

They killed them.

What can we do, Vasilisa? - I can fight! Fight!

Calm down! Calm down!

Better to be spoiled on the ground...

We'll kill you all! Mark my words!

Remember!

Why did you come?

Come on, tell me!

They killed your Vanyochka.

You lie!

You are lieing! Who told you that?

He came to Ellen. His sister told me.

No!

I do not believe it.

I do not believe it.

No! I do not believe it.

His mother got sick of grief.

I do not believe it!

I do not believe it.

Come! Come closer!

Forgive me.

I have sinned against thee.

This is all my fault.

If I did not interfere in your relationship with Vanyochka...

He would still be alive.

I'm sorry. Can you hear me?

And pray.

For me and for Vanyochka.

Do not ignore the children.

Forgive me.

Sorry!

Her hands are so white.

Whose hands? - Hands of young mistress, Lena.

Her skin is transparent.

Where have you been? - Give me some water.

I helped the French. We put seized grain in the barn.

Snakes!

No benefit from them, but they need to eat.

We will feed them.

With what? We gave to landlord, gave to French...

Winter is coming.

We will not allow them to die of starvation.

They are children.

That child already has so big boobs that Grishka can't take his eyes off them.

So what. Why should we interfere?

They are Ryazan's.

Calm down!

Calm down! Calm down, I tell you!

Do not go there!

What are you doing? Hold it!

Gentlemen, do not desecrate the temple!

Please! Do not desecrate the temple!

Where are you going? Go home!

Murderers!

Where should I put this? - Put it here!

Take it!

Do you have it? - Take it.

Take it! Come on, come on, eat!

Take it! Eat!

And you? - I will manage.

We ran out of bread. We will have to go back.

Where to?

They drove us into the woods. Like beasts.

We will die here of hunger.

Do you think someone will give us something? The French have taken all away.

Here or there, we'll still die.

No.

No... We'll take the bread from the French.

I saw them when they were hauling the grain from the countryside.

Two wagons follows five soldiers. And there is forty of us.

Half of us are men. We can deal with them.

God taught us to turn the other side of cheek when they beat us.

But there is a time when

we are able to sell our own soul,

when we see that our closest are killed in front our own eyes.

We just stand by and be silent. We can't be silent! We must fight!

God will help us. We did not start the war.

We did not go to their country.

Timofey! The wagon with guns!

Guys... Quick, follow me!

Guys, faster, I say!

You gave me a lesson how to behave.

You talked, how your obedient slaves obey.

And now your slaves are rebells. They are killing our troops!

They robbed our convoy! Because of them I will end up in court!

Friend,

you can't talk to me in that tone!

Good!

They are criminals.

And your girl is leading them, Vasilisa.

I know.

We'll find a way to get them out of the forest.

Call that ironing lady, Daskha.

You summoned me, sir?

You summoned me, sir. - You Speak French?

Yes. I have learned with my sister.

The result is different, judging by your accent.

Are you close with your sister?

Yes.

Then help me to save her.

Soon, her luck will turn it's back on her. She will fall in battle or be hanged.

I want to help her. I want to save her.

That is why I need your help. You should bring her out of the woods and surrender her to me.

Do you understand me? - Yes.

But I have one condition.

Since when the two of us, have equal right to talk?

I will hand you Vasilisa, and you with her, will take me to Paris.

Only your cynicism is higher than your stupidity.

Are we agreed then?

Hold it!

What do you envision, Captain?

My home is ten minutes ride from here. It's bugging me.

Then, let's go!

No! I'll send a dispatch.

I do not know... If my family were so close by, I would have gone there.

My orders are... You go on, I'll catch up with you.

Ivan, then I am going with you.

Give this to the superior!

Did you understand me, Lieutenant?

Understood!

Hiya, let's go!

Dashka!

Sir!

It's me.

You didn't recognize me?

Well, they said you were killed.

I'm alive, as you can see.

Do you know where my family is? The house is locked.

Why are you silent?

The old lady died.

Mama?

How?

She became sick when she heard you were killed.

Petya and Lena?

The children were left in the woods with the rebels.

Alyushenka was taken to the city by Skorup's.

And where is Vasilisa?

Frenchman Blie dropped his eye on her.

Keeps it with him as a maid.

Take me to him! - Hang on!

I'll take you tonight. But not now.

That's it, Vanya. You'll have to go alone from here.

When you walk in, go upstairs.

Just quietly. Mr. is asleep.

There he is. Sleeping.

May God protect you, Dashka.

I'm sorry I had a bad opinion about you.

Forgive me if I ever offended you.

Bravo!

I admire your passion, but not your mind, Captain.

Drop your weapon!

Damn...

Drop your weapon, Captain.

I have other plans for you.

Mitya... Mitya, get down! You must hurry.

Do not make me beg. I will not go.

I have no one else but you. We have to save Vaska.

So, Vanya is alive? - He's alive, but not for long.

Blie wants to punish him.

Only one thing can stop it. - What?

He said he would let the landlord if you voluntarily surrender.

You lie! Vasilisa, do not believe him.

Why would he lie?

Here! I have a letter.

Where is Vanya? You promised to let him go! You promised!

Not so fast.

We will continue to talk at my place.

You'll have the opportunity to prove

you're not the enemy of the French army.

I knew I should not trust you.

Yet you came.

I had no choice.

However,

I was hoping that you are an honest man. - Vasilisa,

I also have no choice, tomorrow at dawn I will hang you both.

Your people will scatter.

Up to you to decide.

You still have time. I'm not going anywhere.

Take her!

Vanya! Vanyenka!

Vanyushka! - Just a second... Come on...

We will survive! We will surely survive.

I promise you! Once I was almost dead.

But you saved me. - How so?

I was wounded, I was severely wounded.

And day and night I thinked about you. I dreamed of you as soon as I fall asleep.

Thanks to you I survived.

I promise you that we will survive.

We will have children. As much as God would like.

Two, three... What names are you going to give them?

Alyosha...

A daughter? - Mashenyka.

They're coming. - It's early. It's not dawn yet.

Vanyochka, I love you more than life. I've always loved you.

You have no idea how much I love you.

Come on! Come on!

Go to the woods! Or they will catch you.

Go with us! - Just you go.

I took a sin on my soul. I will answer for it.

Go! - With God!

I took a sin on my soul. I will answer for it.

I can not! I will not leave you. I will...

I can't leave my men. Do you understand Vanyochka? I can not.

You will have to leave them if you go with me.

They saved my life.

How can I leave them? I can not!

Then promise me you'll wait for me. Promise me!

I promise. I promise.

From whom? - From Prince Kutuzov, Your Highness.

Read on!

My lord...

Congratulations, Your Imperial Highness

for the win. - Shorten it please.

Go straight to the point.

Fourth French corps are broken.

3000 enemies were captured, 62 cannons, lots of wounded...

Cossacks... - Leave!

I understand, Your Majesty!

Finally, report from chief,

sounds like poetry.

...enemy of the Russian land...

before you are dark steppes, deep swamps...

Faster! - Let's split up! Move there!

Move! Who is it?

Pick him up! Take him to the camp!

Stop! - Listen!

Army comes.

Cavalry comes this way.

Calm down, Ramotchka!

I think he comes...

Napoleon.

Headquarters should be informed...

I found this on a dead scout. Tell him to translate.

Explain Blie! - Prevedite!

Why?

Why we are speaking to me in that tone?

Translate!

For general Beniksen:

According to our information,

commander of the French Army Napoleon

is running back to Orsha

on 12th November this year.

Road is...

very difficult... - Continue!

Here's blood.

It is possible that Napoleon

will try to shorten the way, by passing through the forest near the village.

Ivagin.

Isn't this amazing?

Napoleon.

How to fight against him? Land forks against guns?

What can we do, Vasilisa?

We can slow him down.

We should block the way. Just slow him down.

In the meantime, we will send a courier to fetch our army.

Oh, you men!

Men! Women, that's who you are!

If we manage to kill him the war will be over.

War ends! For you, for you, for them... For all!

Why are you silent?

Speak if you have already begin.

They killed my brother. - Killed.

Who brought them here?

He led the Antichrist.

It seems that in him is all evil. - And my father was killed.

Vasilisa is right.

We have to go. What is there to think about?

If we must die, we need to stick together.

I'll go with you.

What have you been up to? - Grisha.

What Grisha? Where do you think you can go? Through the French?

While the battle goes? Do not worry about me.

They will not suspect me. - What is it with you? Do you want to get shot?

Anything can happen to you. - How do you talk to me?

Excuse me, madam!

Antoshka!

Take her to the village and bring the horse back.

Hang on.

Grisha! Come on!

Closer.

Why did you kiss him? Moment ago you were arguing.

Ivan, you can not even imagine who was in my tent.

Come, quickly!

Prepare the squadron! - I understand. Your honor!

Lena! - Vanya!

Lena! - My brother! You're alive!

Lenochka! - Brother! - My darling!

Sir, where's that scar from?

You've really grown. - Elena became a real beauty.

And you with that face? Just kidding.

Ivan... If you would only knew what news were brought in by Elena?

Let's cut to the chase.

Do you know the region well?

Of course. - Take your hussars,

Narwhal squadron.

You will attack! Quickly and decisively.

We need to cross. Our house is over there. - Wait!

We have to go.

We have to cross. We have to cross.

We have to cross.

Attention!

What is going on?! Don't move! Don't move!

Right now! Right now!

Cut lower! Cut lower!

French! French!

We didn't make it! We didn't finish!

Any wounded? - Looks like none, Captain.

Emperor! Emperor!

What happened. Captain? - Partizans!

They tried to attack us, but we destroyed them.

We've made it!

Today I'm going to have to punish you and your friends.

I sympathize with you.

Then let me go.

Let me go.

I can save you.

You might think I'm crazy?

Listen to me, please.

I can take you out of here. Trust me.

I can make you happy. - I'm born here.

I live here. If I have to die, I want to die here.

It's not the time for kind words, Vasilisa.

If you refuse, you'll be hanged in an hour.

The soul is immortal. - What did you say?

Nothing. You would not understand.

Soldier, help Vasilisa up.

Attention!

For the act of sabotage!

You are condemned to death by hanging.

Vasilisa Kozhina,

Otip Kolov, Timofey Petrov,

Sebastiyan Formin, Grigoriy Kofin, Oton Kofin.

The judgment shall be enforced immediately.

They released you.

They will let you go.

Why?

Because...

Because you are children.

Go!

And you? I do not want to go! I want to stay with Vasya!

Let me go! Let me go, I say!

Vasilisa! - Antoshka wait! Antoshka!

Vasilisa, you've been like a mother to us.

Forgive me, as a mother.

Go, go already!

Get out of here. - Come on!

No!

Vasilisa, I will give you last chance.

It's not too late to make the right choice.

Well... It is your decision.

Continue with execution!

Men, forgive me.

Forgive me if I let you down!

And you forgive us, Vasilisa!

I am sorry.

Orthodox forgive us and pray for us.

Hang them!

Vanya, Vanyochka!

Vanya. You are alive, madam.

Vanya! - Vasilisa!

Vasilisa! My Beloved!

Vanyochka! - Vasilyok!

What took you so long? - Forgive me! Sorry!

My dear...
