Original subtitles

When we were too few left to fight,

we packed our tents

and went down to Pine Ridge.

There were already many Lakotas,

and many soldiers there,

facing each other in two rows.

Pointing their guns,

and we went between those two rows.

And this is how it all ended.

When I look back from the high mountain of my old age

I can still see the slaughtered women and children

piled up along that twisting ravine.

Silence! You are offending America.

The United States of America

Look at us, long hair...

We are the United States of America

This sky, this grass belongs to us, as it belonged to our ancestors.

Nonsense, we bought it from you.

You can take back your coloured beads.

I offer this as a sacrifice.

Look at my action with kindness.

The day of the sun has been my strength.

The path of the moon will be my cloak.

A sacred praise I make.

A sacred praise I make.

We cannot tolerate this violence and this looking anymore.

We cannot and we must not.

We will not surrender to an irresponsible minority of rebels

who try to destabilize authority.

We will take all the necessary measures,

to punish whoever supports violence.

And to re-establish order.

Look out! There's a police car coming!

Let's go!

Come Valentina!

The limit of these political newspapers

is that they can only reach very few people

who in any case already know about the issue

they agree with it

or they pretend to be.

Anyway,

with your work you've fully demonstrated

that even with a comic strip,

one can contribute

to make a revolutionary statement.

Even Snoopy himself is a subversive.

Where were you?

What a race!

You know, Sandro let me try his Suzuki.

Well, lets say that I gave in to violence

You are adorable.

I want to take a picture of you:

Naked in a corn field.

OK

Let's talk about it in the summer.

You got it wrong, brother.

Valentina Rosselli takes her own pictures.

- Ciao Arno - Ciao

A photographer?

Oh she only does fashion, advertising, arts, politics, reportage...

Ever heard of Cartier-Bresson?

What's Cartier-Bresson got to do with it?

It is one of the pseudonym of Valentina

Well, it's easier for you: Paper and ink

don't cost you much!

But if you made films, like I do,

costs escalate to millions!

It is not necessarily so.

Your friend Godard for example

demonstrated that it not always the case.

Well Godard is always Godard,

don't you think Valentina?

I don't know, I still prefer Laurel and Hardy

And as far as your idol is concerned

I think he reached his peak with "Pierrot le Fou"

You don't understand anything!

Are you going back to Milan tonight?

Yes, with Giorgio, if I manage to drag him

out of that mount of cartoon comics.

Could you give me a lift?

Yes, but I am driving the convertible,

you will have to sit on Arno's knees.

No.

Why not?

I feel like walking.

Thank you for the lift, Giorgio. Good night.

- Ciao Valentina. - Ciao Arno.

Wait for me.

Be reasonable, for goodness sake!

Walking from here to your house

it takes at least half an hour.

It's already three o'clock in the morning.

I like the night.

Also, it is really cold!

Cold is my drug!

Now you know it!

And if you bump into somebody?

At least let me come with you fora while.

Listen to me.

I don't feel like making love with you.

Not tonight.

Ciao.

And run home!

At this time at night...

...all the boy scouts are asleep!

Ciao!

Taxi.

So?

How did it go?

She is crazy like a horse.

And who are you?

The Big Bad Wolf?

What are you doing out so late?

You've got to go home, you know?

What a strange mark.

You are funny,

you look like a cuddly toy.

'Night, doggy.

Careful!

I am really sorry, miss,

I cannot understand how it could happen.

It's nothing.

It was my fault.

There was a dog in the middle of the street...

Please! Get into my car.

Let me take you home.

Thank you but I live close by.

Please.

After giving you such a fright.

It's the least I can do.

Don't say no.

All right.

It wasn't a dog.

I beg your pardon?

I was going very fast.

I knew something was about to happen.

We were destined to meet.

But,

how do you know that I live here?

There are many things

that you can't understand,

At least for the time being.

Perhaps I will be able to explain them to you,

And I will do it gladly.

But first...

First I have to be sure...

- Do you mind? - Whatare you doing?

Here we are.

You will forgive me.

But I needed something that belonged to you.

Don't worry.

I will give you back tomorrow.

Good night, dear.

And don't forget my name.

My name is

Baba Yaga.

Yes yes. I got it.

Yes, yes, I am coming

Good morning.

I am your National Health doctor

Oh go on, what's the time?

You'll think it's unreal but nearly midday.

I'll make you some coffee, OK?

Thank you

Did you go to bed late last night?

Yes, but it's not that.

What is it, then?

I had weird dreams.

And then last night...

Last night what?

Nothing.

Did you bring the paper.

What's new?

Not much.

Your left wing friends

Keep occupying the schools in Milan.

You are a fascist

And you are delusional

Let's go!

Let's go!

Go Valentina, I can't stay like this for very long!

What? Oh, right. I'm sorry.

What are you doing? We've finished for today.

We'll finish tomorrow.

Good morning, my dear.

I hope I am not disturbing.

No, we have just finished.

Come in.

Bye bye Valentina.

Bye

Bye. See you tomorrow.

Well my dear.

I have come to give you back

that delightful little thing

I have taken from you last night.

Can I put it back?

Live me alone!

You can't...

I am not wearing a suspender belt.

What a shame.

Last night you said that ours

wasn't a chance encounter.

What do you mean?

It's too early, Valentina.

Too early.

Do you always use this camera?

Yes...

...I often do...

...it depends

The eye immobilizes reality...

Well,

now I must go

Come and see me.

Can I count on it?

Well, I not sure,

I am very busy these days.

Take my advice.

Come and see me, Valentina.

My house is very old.

I am sure you will find it interesting.

Here,

I'll leave you my address.

So, can I count on it?

I will try to come.

Good.

Yes?

Valentina? This is Arno.

How did it go last night?

It went very well.

Very well?

I made a hundred thousand with an old gentleman.

Then I was robbed by a pimp who beat me up.

Then I ended up in jail,

whilst there I was raped by a thief.

Is it enough?

That sounds great!

I am glad you had fun!

Listen, I am in the suburbs, shooting an item for TV

I need some stills,

would you come over with your camera?

Where are you?

Wait a second. I will ask.

Madam, where are we?

Where do you think we are? In Milan!

Piss off!

I know we are in Milan, what's the address here?

Via Moncucco 22

What stupid question. Everybody knows it!

Via Moncucco,

as you come out from Porta Ticinese follow the Naviglio.

Let me get changed and I will be with you in half an hour.

What's he doing?

I got it! I got it!

Look, look atit!

What do you think you are doing with that rat?

Wait and see.

Come, come pal!

Is it ok here?

A little to the right...

- Ok. - Don't move.

A nice close up!

Careful not to include my finger.

Don't worry.

Action!

What's going on?

It just got stuck.

What did you do?

No, everything seems all right. But it doesn't work.

Don't worry, it doesn't matter, it means that tomorrow

- you are coming back to finish. - All right.

Listen, I only managed three or four shots

That's enough.

If you take me to your place,

I can take the underground from there.

Ok, but you drive.

What do you want to do with the close up of the rat?

I don't know, I might leave it on the cutting room floor

Or I can edit it next to

some big cheese from the industrialists lobby

And do you think that that is allowed in TV?

Of course not.

But at least I will have a director's cut print

that I can show it in the alternative film circuit.

So, in other words

your message will not reach

ten million middle class viewers but only

ten thousand so called intellectuals.

And it will not benefit ecology

as you meant, but only your vanity.

If you don't use the means that the system offers

What other possibility have you got?

The revolution!

Oh Yes? And who will do it, the Unions?

Or intellectuals,

writers, directors.

Don't make me laugh.

We are worst than all the others.

Take me for example

Today I shot a documentary on ecological issues

Tomorrow I am directing a commercial for some washing powder.

You are just an old whore!

Of course I am. Who isn't?

The difference is that I admit it

whilst all the others are selling themselves too

but they make themselves look as they were messiahs.

Believe me Valentina,

it's a big mess, a big game,

and contradictions are the number one rule.

In any case contradictions are the only hope.

Of course! And you should know it!

Because as far as I am concerned

you are a contradiction yourself.

Really? Why?

For example in a while

you will stand me up in front of your house.

To be coherent

you should at least ask me in for a drink.

All right. Come up.

What did you say?

I didn't want to disturb you.

No trouble atall.

Arno, Toni

Who is she? Some kind of cowboy?

With a little spray we send the fat away!

When I saw that dragon yesterday

I though you had jumped onto the other side!

What do you mean?

You didn't notice?

She's madly in love with you!

Shut up stupid!

What are you talking about?

Nothing.

Shall I put the bullets in?

All right, so you are more in character.

Ok.

Shoot!

Toni! What's wrong?

Tell me!

I can't breathe

What's happening to her?

Be careful.

What's happening to you?

I don't know Valentina, I feel sick

Do you want to go home?

Will you be all right on your own?

If you want I'll go with her

It is better.

I am calling a taxi.

Hello? Please send a taxi over.

I am sorry Valentia, I made you waste yourday.

No problem. I will find something else to do today.

Just try to get better.

The taxi will be here in a moment.

Thank goodness.

Will you be at home later?

I don't know

- I'll call you. - All right

- Bye. - Bye.

I am glad to see you.

I was sure you would come.

Well... I

I have to take pictures of some jewels so,

I thought that perhaps you would have let me do it here.

Of course.

My house is at your disposal.

I am a little lazy.

I will not come with you.

Do as you like.

You can...

...go into any room.

And take all the pictures you want.

Thank you.

Oh what lovely necklaces!

I would be grateful

if you let me see them.

Nice to touch...

And even nicer to feel...

Leave that hole alone, Valentina.

That corner needs some repairs.

Upstairs, perhaps, you may find

Some interesting things

for your pictures.

Valentina

Valentina

Aren't you feeling well, dear?

Is there anything I can do for you?

No, thank you.

I had a moment of dizziness.

You are very kind

Oh, nonsense.

I am always so alone here.

Your visit has been a pleasure.

In fact,

I want to give you a present.

Here.

This, is Annette.

You must never separate from her.

She will protect you from evil threats.

What do you mean?

What evil threat?

You never know, my dear.

You never know.

Of course...

You can't answer.

You are only a doll.

GOD IS DEAD

GOD IS DEAD NOW YOU KNOW IT

I DON'T LIVE HERE ANYMORE

GOD IS DEAD NOW YOU KNOW IT

WHY ARE YOU STILL GOING TO MASS?

What 's going on, Carlo?

Carlo? Carlo?

Quick come over, quick!

Give me a hand to get him up

Do something, quick!

Is there a doctor?

Hello?

Bon jour, Valentina!

Hello!

Am I too early?

Oh dear, I had totally forgotten.

Thank goodness,

Romina hasn't arrived yet!

She mighthave been delayed.

Atthe University there is a meeting about Third World problems

How irresponsible!

A student's meeting might make the Third World problems worse!

They are not going to solve them!

And what possessed me to trust Romina's punctuality!

Hi guys!

Hi Romina.

What do we do today Valentina?

Sex and civil rights!

A demanding and interesting programme.

And this?

Underwears Loup: No more taboos!

No more hypocrisy, no more racial prejudices.

Wow! This is real political commitment.

Take your shirt off.

Keep your trousers on.

But try to forget that you have an education

And live with civilized people!

We didn't learn that at university.

Very witty!

At least

you could try and look rough.

Or like those ancestors

you know, those who used

to eat missionaries.

What a great doll!

Don't touch it!

What's wrong?

I don't know,

but there is something strange about that doll.

Where did it come from, Valentina?

I don'tknow,

it was given to me.

If you are ready

we can start.

That's it

Next time we could make love for real.

If not she'll kill us

Ah for me it's fine. How about now?

No, thank you.

The Third World's future is in your hands.

- Run! - Ok.

Bye Valentina.

Bye

Bye Romina. Whenever you want!

What's going on?

The light is back on. I should check the wiring.

What's wrong Romina, are you all right.

No, nothing...

I must have had a dizzy spell.

How strange.

And then something pricked me. Look.

It's not bleeding.

I wonder what it was.

- Does it hurt? - No, not really.

It stings a little.

I'm going. I feel a little weird.

Call me when the photos are ready.

Bye

Tonight or tomorrow.

Arno

I need to talk to you. Now.

I am waiting for you, Valentina.

Fantastic!

How did you do it?

Zoom in...

It was easy, darling.

With Netto,

the new washing power

with instant action

which, in few seconds

eliminate any trace of grease.

Stop.

- How is it for you? - Good.

I would do anothera little less tight.

Lets do another one!

This was the third. Do you want a list of the good takes?

You are good and that's enough.

What number should I put?

The same, preceded by an A.

This is unexpected!

Excuse me a second!

Valentina, what are you doing here?

I've got to talk to you.

Something wrong?

Not just something. Everything.

Arno, we are ready, are you coming?

Can you take care of it? Everything should be like the one before.

All right.

Lets go.

Your dreams aside,

and a few coincidences,

it seems to me that all you have is this lady

who would like to introduce you to the delights of Sapphic love.

You don't get it.

Baba Yaga...

...is different.

As if she were from another world.

A world that obeys different forces... Her eyes...

Ah, Valentina the world is full of people with strange eyes.

Not like that.

There is something different.

Something I don't understand. That I can't even imagine.

This is what I find scary.

For example that doll she gave me.

It seems alive.

And that hole in her house...

it is bottomless, you see, it ends nowhere.

Now you are going to say that it's Hell's door,

And that your Baba Yaga is the witch at the entrance.

Well, why not?

You are crazy!

We are in the twentieth century!

We can do heart transplants, we can go to the moon.

Witches don't exist anymore!

This is medieval stuff!

If anything, hell is in this world.

Believe me Valentina, if hell existed,

I mean the classic vision of it with the damned and the flames

Well, if it ever existed today they would turn it into a supermarket.

If only I could...

You see today, when the light went off

Something happened.

I don't know what, but there is...

there is a detail that escapes me.

But it might be helpful to understand.

Even though I am afraid to understand.

But what are you afraid of?!

You meet an old dyke, your friend has a headache,

and you believe there is a spell. A witch.

She's pale.

Her hands are cold.

Listen, I have an old aunt with teeth like these.

But she's not Dracula.

You don't seem to be all there.

You should go out more.

Why don't you come with me to a cineclub?

- Now? - Yes.

What are they showing?

German expressionist movies.

What fun!

Better than staying at home.

Let's hurry.

Look who's here.

Hi!

- So, you are going to see the film too? - Yes, tonight I must celebrate.

What?

I sold my comic strips characters to a big publisher

They want to make books from them

Do you know what it means?

It means no more small underground magazines.

But a big public finally.

And also loads of money!

But will they let you carry on with your ideas?

Your anti-capitalist message?

Well... I will have to clean up a few things.

Change some words.

I'll have to make it a bit more commercial.

But it's a price worth paying, don't you think?

Are you crazy?

Nothing... I am sorry.

The time has come! The stars are favourable to the spell.

The art of giving life to dead things

I obtained the terrible life-giving word from the Dark Powers...

Now I am going to give life to the Golem!

Let's go.

- What? - Don't waste time. Let's go

What's wrong? We have just...

Damn...

So, are you going to tell me what is wrong with you?

I have remembered the detail that I couldn't recall.

When the light went off the camera was on the table

In its case. But when the light came on again it was on the floor

Next to the doll, out of its case.

So what?

Don't you understand? Someone used it.

Someone took some pictures with it.

Whilst the light was off.

It cannot be. It's absurd.

I know.

Look, the film has all been used.

Are you sure it wasn't you?

Sure. I put in a new film whilst talking to Avojubi.

Then I thought of all the coincidences:

Toni's illness, your camera's problem, that hippy's death.

I thought this camera was jinxed.

So I used the Canon, to avoid bad luck.

What are we waiting for, let's develop it...

It was dark when they were taken.

They might not come out.

Are you sure?

No.

Come on then.

Eh, is this Annette?

Yes.

Not bad.

If it were a real girl, call me, I'll talk to her.

It's impossible!

What's Romina's phone number?

Hello? This is Arno Treves

May I speak to Romina?

I'm a friend of Valentina. It's urgent!

What?

I am sorry.

Arno...

She is dead isn'tshe?

Two hours ago.

Hello?

Good morning my dear.

I am sorry to have woken you up.

I just wanted to tell you that your camera is atmy place.

Come and get it now.

Don't wait until your friend comes back.

Now. You understand?

Valentina.

What do you want from me?

Don't be afraid.

The wiring is very old.

It often happens to have black outs.

Your camera.

Why did you kill that hippy guy?

Why did you kill Romina?

Me?

I didn't want it to happen.

This doesn't mean anything, my dear.

Ther eare forces

which can strike at any moment.

These forces use us.

And there is nothing we can do about it.

I will do something.

You are very arrogant

Like most of your people.

You think you have conquered the moon,

but you don't even know the secrets of your planet.

You will come with me, Valentina

I will teach you the secrets that men

have tried to discover during the centuries.

You will become rich!

Powerful!

You belong to me

don't you forget it.

I have demonstrated

that I can do

whatever I want with you.

No.

I don't care about power,

about cosmic secrets, oreven about money

I do what I want with my life.

And I haven't got any intention of making love

with an old lesbian like you!

What you want to do has no importance.

You will come with me,

whether you like it or not

Go upstairs, into the room

Valentina!

Valentina!

Where are you?

Arno!

Annette!

Annette!

No!

No!

What are you doing here?

Here they are...

It's a long story.

There is a lady living here...

What are you talking about?

Stop telling lies!

What lady?! There is nobody living here!

This house is abandoned.

Abandoned?

Yes, dear!

It's been abandoned for a long time.

It belongs to the council which doesn't have the money to pull it down.

There is a "For Sale" sign outside! Understood!

No!

Found anything in there?

Yes. A lot of dust!

Old furniture, bricks and rubble.

There is also a doll's head.

I am a photographer

I needed some picture of a location like this

At night?

I will leave it for the time being.

Tomorrow come to the police station.

We'll certainly come tomorrow, thank you.
