FACTORY SOUNDS

THE SOUNDS OF HAMMER STROKES

A guy lived in a barracks house. No one remembered how he got here.

At least he wasn't from here.

No one knew his real name.

It was called Bryndza.

He lived in a cottage with his two children.

The boy was 12 years old, the girl was younger.

CRICKETS CHICKING

The boy was taking care of his sister.

Dad, I'm sorry. NO...

You damned shit!

Dad, I'm sorry!

A MAN BEATS A BOY THE BOY IS SCREAMING AND CRYING

I told you!

Dad, please! I won't anymore!

If you don't learn now, then you will never learn.

Daddy, please don't!

Dad...

Come back! Come back!

Holy crap!

Come back! Dog blood!

Cholera.

The boy never came back.

Shit. It's a fairy tale for children. It was supposed to be a bloody horror movie with dead bodies.

This is some tearful crap.

This is a true story. Dad told me.

Narka, faggot. And don't pee yourself out of fear.

- Dad, aren't you afraid to come here? - What should I be afraid of?

Ghosts.

You can only be afraid of people. And they are not here.

- People? - Bad people.

- I'm scared sometimes. - There's nothing.

I prefer to come here with you.

You have to learn it yourself.

I prefer with you. Unless I had a dog.

Dad, are you crying?

You have to learn and walk this path alone.

You have to.

If you pass, you'll get a dog.

- Will you try? - I'll try.

But it's terribly empty here.

But it used to be different.

Tell me.

I already told you a thousand zillion times.

Only a hundred zillion times.

There used to be a big factory here.

There were lots of houses there where people lived.

Everything was spinning. There was work, people had money.

Great, they're murdering kids. Now it will begin.

Nobody said they were murdering. She just didn't come home.

Bright. The seven-year-old had a party and she forgot that she had to go home.

Raped and killed. Or vice versa.

My father told me that once upon a time people they caught kids and took their blood.

- It was called "Black Volga". - This is a fairy tale for idiots like you.

I don't know if it's Volga or some other shit

but there's a cart driving around our town. Black and no one knows what brand it is.

- Apparently it's a hearse. -What?

A car for transporting bodies, idiot.

I heard there was a black limousine once she stopped near the bar.

The bar was closed, but Cepiel was standing there.

He got out of the limo man dressed all in black.

He even had a black hat. And he asked Cepiel about the time.

Cepiel replied: "Twelve o'clock."

- So what? - And the next day he died.

Cepiel was sick. He could turn over at any moment.

But the body disappeared.

- Why? - Because he was the devil.

- That's why I don't wear a watch. - I don't wear them either. Yes, by all means.

-Aty? - I have a watch.

Then hide it if you don't want to. to make your corpse disappear.

Recently, a hyena escaped from the zoo. I heard it on TV.

Hyenas only eat carrion. But this one kills and buries,

It's not a horror movie, it's a fairy tale and we are not children.

Some psychopath is murdering in Żerniki, and you're talking about some drunkard.

- But no one yet murdered e.g. - Naive.

What's here? Get out!

I knew she wouldn't make it out alive. Raped and killed.

- Maybe it's just an accident. - Stop dreaming.

Yesterday evening I went to listen to him howl.

I heard a scream and then laughter. I almost went crazy with fear.

Does that mean the hyena raped you?

He's a guy who turns into a hyena.

He's pretty fucked up.

I watched a show about a guy who turned into a wolf.

- Big one, come to me, I'll show you something. -What?

- I dug up an old cartridge. - It's pouring on him.

- We'll throw him into the fire. - Turning your ass around.

It's a useful animal. It only kills the weaker ones.

When someone is sick or weak or something.

- And bad people? - There are too many of them.

Arak is weak and sick.

What did he do to you?

He could track you down. No one would regret having a hyena...

People say Arak is hanging around near your house.

He's probably looking for a wife.

People say your man he killed himself! He didn't save anyone.

You probably are as crazy as him!

- Keep your mouth shut. - Shit, I'll say whatever I like.

Be careful, because I know someone who will fix you up.

You can kiss me.

It was all rotten.

I don't feel like eating.

I wonder who will be there next carcass for the hyena?

Probably Little. He walks through the Dead Field.

Why didn't you want to? go to the Dead Field alone?

You have to go this far so that we don't see you.

They undergo periodic examinations. If someone is sick, they get a pension.

The hyena finished him off.

Of course it is. Too many people are dying lately.

He was old. It's getting weaker he pedaled. His heart skipped a beat.

The hyena has babies and now he needs to get more meat.
