KOKTEBEL

Are we gonna walk all the way to Crimea?

No, we'll take a taxi.

I'm serious.

If you don't like taxis, we'll take a train.

Shut up!

If you don't like trains,

then we'll fly.

Outrageous!

Dad, whose worm is this?

Pavlov's.

What do you mean?

What kind of butterfly?

Looks like...

attacus applesius.

lf...

anything goes wrong,

the address in Koktebel is 5, Seaside Street.

Polyanichko Marina Sergeyevna.

Repeat it.

5, Seaside Street. Polyanichko...

Why Polyanichko?

Her ex-husband's name.

Polyanichko...

Marina Sergeyevna.

5, Seaside Street.

Are you going far?

Crimea.

Long way to go...

Get off.

I said get off!

Yours?

Mine.

Get off both!

Listen, why don't...

Get off!

Turn left.

Wait.

Here's the key.

Open the door.

Come on, don't be scared.

I said open it!

This train goes to the railroad yard.

Don't be afraid.

Spend a night here.

You never know...

I thought he was taking us to the police.

Got scared?

Not really. I woke up when you were talking.

Didn't know what's going on.

Some flashlight...

I thought he was gonna take us to the police.

That's what you thought?

Come on, get unpacked.

That sledgehammer he carried!

Come on, let's eat

while it's hot.

Come and get it.

To warm up.

Homemade.

Thank you, but no.

Thank you.

80 proof!

Thanks but,

I can't.

It's up to you.

I'm not going to force you.

Got scared?

We thought we were taken hostage by a guerrilla.

Guerrilla?

All right,

time to go.

Enough guerrilla war for me.

Sure you don't want some?

Have some more.

Anyway, you know where it is.

Bye.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Thank you.

Hello.

Over there!

Komm zu mir, son.

Buy some Prima for me.

Where is the store?

Where?

Over there, that way.

See, Tanya just went there. Go with her.

But where is the store?

About a mile down the road.

You'll get there.

Go on with Tanya.

I'll find it.

- One pack? - But get your jacket first.

He looks like you.

58,40.

Here's your change.

- For you? - Three packs of starch.

- Here's your change. - Thanks.

A loaf of bread, please.

Here you are.

And your change...

Thanks.

And you, boy?

A pack of Prima...

and a pack of Marlboro.

Here.

Thank you.

What grade are you in?

None.

Come on, really?

Really.

You're not in school?

No. We moved.

Are you tramps, then?

No. We are moving to Koktebel.

Dad teaches me everything.

He's got a higher education.

So how old are you?

11.

And me?

I can see everything from above.

Look.

This is where we stand.

It's not a pit there. It's a barn.

He said, turn right.

That's what we're doing.

Dad, what's that?

Where?

That's some sort of a falcon.

He's not flapping his wings?

He's got very good aerodynamics.

He finds an ascending current and circles looking for prey.

And now, he's starting his dive.

Then folds his wings and dives.

He ran out of the air current.

Right,

he can't soar for too long.

Unlike the albatross that can glide many kilometers.

Albatross?

It's a sea bird.

I know.

It's got a huge wingspan.

About your height, or even more.

Are there albatrosses in Koktebel?

Not in Koktebel. They only live by the ocean.

Ring once more...

Hello.

We are traveling to Crimea.

Sometimes we stop to earn some money.

They said you need your roof repaired.

What?

Your company doesn't pay travel expenses?

No.

It's a long story...

This is my son.

I can show my passport.

- Can you fix the roof? - Roof!

I used to build airplanes. The roof is a piece of cake.

We know how, right?

All right. But I won't pay much.

And we are not asking for much.

All right.

Come on in, you are soaking.

Your quarters.

There are magazines you can read.

It will be a long day tomorrow.

Watch out!

That's it!

No, thanks.

Not for me.

How come?

Thanks, but I don't drink.

Why not?

I can't, you understand?

Just five cardiac drops.

"Yet there is one more desire.

"I cannot speak.

"My soul's on fire!"

"As one threatens, or beseeches,

"So his two arms forth he flung.

"Crayfish black, and loathsome leeches,

"Round his swollen body hung!"

I've got books up there in the attic.

Some of them illustrated.

Where?

Up the stairs.

Where's the switch?

At the top of the stairs.

The fridge needs a fix.

"Crayfish black, and loathsome leeches,

"Round his swollen body hung!"

The structure of the albatross's body

enables this bird to soar for hours

with almost no effort.

Carried by air currents,

the albatross can cover vast distances

with just one flap of its wings.

Albatrosses were spotted many miles away from the coast.

I'm telling you... we repaired the roof just in time.

It was completely ruined.

The ceiling would've fallen.

- Where's the flashlight? - Over there.

Let the crowd

blame or mock,

Proud stands

the granite rock!

Mikhail Alexandrovich is tired.

Go read your books.

Mikhail Alexandrovich is not tired at all!

He is in good spirits

and will show you a joke.

The elephant!

Here's

the elephant's right ear.

Here is

the elephant's left ear.

And where is the elephant's trunk?

The supper without which you suffer.

Come on, meet Mr. Omelet.

Take it. We already ate.

Take it now!

Alexanych!

What?

Do we have any vodka left?

Check the cupboard.

I did.

What time is it?

Nine thirty.

Then go buy some.

And the money?

Where's the money?

- None left? - No.

Right,

we've spent it all yesterday...

There's got to be more.

Maybe some small change...

There should be a lot left.

There isn't.

You said you're going to take some from the bank to pay me.

I did.

When?

Yesterday.

You were too drunk to make sense.

I went to the bank!

Listen,

I'm serious.

You stole it.

Don't be stupid.

You stole it, bastard!

Don't be stupid.

Listen, maybe you can borrow...

Thief!

...some booze from the neighbors.

Give me the money, you scum.

Listen, Sanych...

Forget it! Just tell me...

Turn out your pockets!

Idiot.

- Turn out your pockets! Do it! - Look!

Idiot!

- Thieves! - Want to see an elephant?

Thief!

You're crazy!

Come on.

OK, I understood.

That's good.

- Mikhail... - That's good.

When you'll sober up, you'll remember it all.

Mikhail...

Listen, Mikhail...

There must be someone around here...

neighbors who...

Go on,

because here, I...

You thieves! I knew it. You robbed me.

Are you nuts? Calm down.

Get your rascal and let's go.

- Pull yourself together! - We're going to the cops!

Calm down, Sanych...

Get your rascal!

Don't you dare!

I'm going to...

Don't you dare!

Get down here!

We didn't take your...

Move on.

You bastards will go to jail. I'll turn you in.

Bet you've got a record.

Enough.

It's delirium you've got. Give me the gun.

I'll shoot!

Don't be stupid.

I'll count to three. One.

Hand it over.

Calm down. Just think.

Two!

Two and a half...

Don't shoot my Dad. He didn't steal!

lt'll be fine.

Dad, let's go.

Come.

Higher!

Like that...

This one on top. Right.

Go on...

Tie it up. Damn!

- What are you doing? - Tying it.

Not in a bow! Tighter!

Like this.

- We need to go to hospital. - We can't.

Then what we gonna do?

I don't know!

- Are you a doctor? - Good Lord, what is this?

I'm looking for a doctor. My dad is in the forest, wounded.

Hold on. I will get dressed.
