00:00:52God, my God, how cowardly I am to come to you, whom I have offended so many times.
00:01:01How unworthy I will be to ask you to come into the abode of my heart.
00:01:06Multiply my humility and let me into your kingdom, O Lord.
00:01:10How can I get there?
00:01:12See me sinful and lift me from the dust of the earth.
00:01:15I want to pierce your pierced legs, wounds, red, to pierce myself.
00:01:19I want to be at that time a smooth and fragrant petal of a rosy rose.
00:01:24And then to burn like a firefly and as a blue smoke from the hand of an angel to rise before your face.
00:01:30And for now, I boldly say Amen.
00:01:33Amen.
00:01:35A hundred times Amen.
00:01:37You should give your old father some of this holiness.
00:01:40Then let dad go to confession himself.
00:01:42God is far away, a thief is close, as they say.
00:01:44But don't worry, I'll go someday.
00:01:47I even went out these days, but I swear I'll go someday for sure.
00:01:52I'll go to the pub.
00:01:54Quiet.
00:01:55Are you going to judge your father's actions?
00:01:57Where am I judging, dad?
00:02:00You see, daughter, I'm already an old, sinful man.
00:02:03I just want no one to pay attention to me.
00:02:06In an old man, he can accumulate so many neglects, sins, nastiness.
00:02:10And what about me?
00:02:12Another thing with you.
00:02:14My child is always pure, always sinless and always innocent.
00:02:18Just like today.
00:02:20For me, for myself, for my mother, for my sister, for all of us.
00:02:26But if dad stopped going to that pub, he would be even more loved.
00:02:31It would also be easier to get a job.
00:02:34You're talking nonsense.
00:02:36Understand that I have to be among people.
00:02:40Day by day.
00:02:42And how much does it cost?
00:02:44And how much does it cost?
00:02:46How long does it take to get out of bed?
00:02:48How can a mother stand it?
00:02:50I'm trying my best.
00:02:52There's nothing but exaggeration.
00:02:54Constant operas, tragedies, hyperbole.
00:02:56And dad will say to himself, hyperbole and that's it.
00:03:00We live as if nothing ever happened.
00:03:03Well, don't teach me how to act in life.
00:03:06Your mother taught you to talk and you talk.
00:03:09In the end, what is allowed to a mother?
00:03:12What is not allowed to you?
00:03:18Open it, I can't.
00:03:20It could be a believer.
00:03:22If it's a believer, say I'm not here, unless it's someone from the pub.
00:03:25I can't lie, because I was at a confession today.
00:03:27And I can't open it, because it could be a believer.
00:03:30I can't also not open it, because it would be disrespect.
00:03:32And disrespect is a sin.
00:03:34You answered yourself, child.
00:03:36I'll open it.
00:03:37If I'm something, and if I'm not, I can't.
00:03:41Is there a room for rent?
00:03:42Yes.
00:03:43Can I see?
00:03:44Please.
00:03:48The window goes to the south-east of the room.
00:03:50It's very warm in winter and we fly.
00:03:52Price?
00:03:5315 rubles.
00:03:54Payment from the top?
00:03:55Yes.
00:03:56With a deposit?
00:03:57Without.
00:03:58Serving?
00:03:59Of course, it's serving.
00:04:0015 rubles, right?
00:04:01Yes.
00:04:02Can I stay here for the night?
00:04:04Of course.
00:04:06Excuse me, I'd like to register.
00:04:08My dad runs registrations in the tenement house.
00:04:10We can do it by hand.
00:04:11Excellent.
00:04:13Dad!
00:04:14Dad, we have a new tenant!
00:04:15Let me introduce myself.
00:04:16I'm sorry, I didn't do it before.
00:04:18Łukasz Niepołomski.
00:04:19Pobratyńska.
00:04:20This is my dad.
00:04:22Łukasz Niepołomski.
00:04:23Welcome.
00:04:24Pobratyński.
00:04:25Nice to meet you.
00:04:26Me too.
00:04:27My passport.
00:04:30I see you're from Wilczej.
00:04:31From Wilczej.
00:04:33It's quieter, although it's also the city center.
00:04:35Do you prefer noise or silence?
00:04:37I don't care.
00:04:39That's good.
00:04:40That means you're in good health,
00:04:42since nothing bothers you.
00:04:44Now so many neurasthenics,
00:04:45white, bad, black, bad.
00:04:48I see you're married.
00:04:51Yes, I'm married.
00:04:52Does your wife live here too?
00:04:54No.
00:04:55Because when it comes to the scarcity of premises,
00:04:56regarding the second bed...
00:04:57I'm getting a divorce.
00:04:58My wife won't live with me.
00:04:59In that case...
00:05:06I sympathize.
00:05:08Divorce is a hard nut to crack,
00:05:10especially in our Catholic Church.
00:05:13You're right.
00:05:14I know a bit about it,
00:05:15because when you're looking for a job,
00:05:16you learn about different things.
00:05:18You're looking for a job?
00:05:20For over a year now.
00:05:21In what field?
00:05:22I'll take everything from A to Z,
00:05:23as long as it's for a living.
00:05:25I really don't have many relationships here,
00:05:27because I study abroad.
00:05:28What do you study?
00:05:29Anthropology.
00:05:30At this age, you still want to study?
00:05:32We learn until we die, right?
00:05:34Well, yes.
00:05:35Just to have something out of it.
00:05:36Now, an old man is less important than a young one.
00:05:39It's nothing.
00:05:40Experience, expertise in work.
00:05:41They only hire young people,
00:05:42because they're young.
00:05:43If you want, I can write you a letter of recommendation.
00:05:45To my friend,
00:05:46Wiktor Kraft.
00:05:47We studied together,
00:05:48Mr. Ferpi.
00:05:49He has a great industrial interest,
00:05:50he needs experienced people.
00:05:51I would be greatly obliged to you.
00:05:54Here's your passport.
00:05:55Thank you.
00:05:56Good will means a lot today,
00:05:58Mr. Niepołomski.
00:05:59I'm glad we'll see each other more often now.
00:06:02If you have any questions,
00:06:04my daughter will explain everything to you.
00:06:14Why are you divorcing your wife?
00:06:16Because I hated her.
00:06:18Your wife?
00:06:19Yes.
00:06:20Why?
00:06:21Because she's stupid, mean,
00:06:23rebellious,
00:06:25evil.
00:06:26Is that enough?
00:06:27Why did you marry her?
00:06:29I must have made a mistake.
00:06:31Yes, you probably did.
00:06:33But you loved her, didn't you?
00:06:35I don't remember.
00:06:36It was a long time ago.
00:06:38What if you get ahead of yourself
00:06:40and only hate her?
00:06:42Hatred makes me feel relieved.
00:06:45Hatred is against my faith
00:06:47and my nature.
00:06:48We got married in Lutheranism.
00:06:50My wife was a Protestant.
00:06:51So that I wouldn't get a divorce so easily,
00:06:53she converted to Catholicism.
00:06:54And because we're Catholics,
00:06:56my fate doesn't belong to me,
00:06:57but to a man in a black dress.
00:07:00I didn't give her the fortune
00:07:02to get ahead of herself.
00:07:04Not even a bit.
00:07:06Do you understand me?
00:07:08Because of her,
00:07:09I'm nothing,
00:07:10a social outcast.
00:07:12What's worse,
00:07:13I can't see a way out.
00:07:14But there is always a way out.
00:07:16You just have to forgive.
00:07:18Then I'll have to move out
00:07:19and it'll be hell.
00:07:20It's hard,
00:07:21but you have to forgive.
00:07:23I'd rather die.
00:07:25You look terrible when you say that.
00:07:28I was at confession today.
00:07:29Tomorrow I'm going to Holy Communion.
00:07:30I'm talking about hatred,
00:07:31about death.
00:07:32Maybe I shouldn't be here.
00:07:33No, no.
00:07:34You're wrong,
00:07:35but in a different way.
00:07:36You don't go to confession, do you?
00:07:37I never go to any priest for anything.
00:07:39Then I'll pray for you.
00:07:41But it won't help anyway.
00:07:43I remember the Mayan worship from childhood.
00:07:46I remember the fear of confession,
00:07:48the confessional,
00:07:49the fat cheeks of the priest.
00:07:50I remember it all.
00:07:52But I don't exist anymore
00:07:53as that man
00:07:54who used to go to church.
00:07:55Long ago, as they say,
00:07:56the subject has turned into an object.
00:07:59I look at him now with longing,
00:08:01with resentment,
00:08:03with disgust.
00:08:05You were at confession today, weren't you?
00:08:06Yes.
00:08:07I assure you,
00:08:08I'm just sure
00:08:09that you are a hundred times more sinless
00:08:10than that priest
00:08:11who confessed to you today.
00:08:12It's you,
00:08:13not him,
00:08:14who should confess to people,
00:08:15because it's you who is innocent.
00:08:16If I can confess to you,
00:08:17I'll never confess to the priest.
00:08:18Mr. Bluzny!
00:08:19I can't confess to you.
00:08:21You can tell me everything,
00:08:22but I can't let you sin.
00:08:24My confession would be short.
00:08:26It would be a confession of reason,
00:08:28not of stupidity.
00:08:30Spinoza once said
00:08:31that if the triangle had a free hand,
00:08:32he would tell us that God
00:08:33is nothing else
00:08:34but a perfect triangle.
00:08:36So I ask you, what is love?
00:08:38If it is God,
00:08:39then it was created
00:08:40in the likeness of man.
00:08:41God!
00:08:42God is love,
00:08:43it is man who was created
00:08:44in the likeness of God.
00:08:45The field in which I delve,
00:08:46and therefore anthropology,
00:08:47speaks clearly.
00:08:48In the wild,
00:08:49cut off from civilization,
00:08:50the existence of the idea of God
00:08:51was not noticed at all,
00:08:52nor any other religious idea.
00:08:54Only a part of humanity
00:08:55created God
00:08:57in its likeness
00:08:58and out of fear.
00:09:00People use people
00:09:01in mines,
00:09:02in stables,
00:09:03in houses,
00:09:04on the streets,
00:09:05in factories.
00:09:06People torture people,
00:09:07people kill people,
00:09:08and above all
00:09:09there is a beautiful
00:09:10Te Deum Laudamus.
00:09:12How can you so shamelessly
00:09:13and blasphemously
00:09:14talk about God and religion?
00:09:15How can you so senselessly
00:09:16repeat what the priests
00:09:17say about God?
00:09:18This is not their friend,
00:09:21if there is at all.
00:09:22You are scaring me.
00:09:26I only have the courage
00:09:27to wander the world alone.
00:09:29I do not accept any authorities
00:09:30until I reach
00:09:31something with my own mind.
00:09:33So if I die,
00:09:34I will blame myself.
00:09:36My happiness
00:09:37will depend solely on me.
00:09:40I repeat,
00:09:41you are scaring me again.
00:09:43Wonderful.
00:09:45This means
00:09:46that I do not leave you indifferent.
00:09:48I will say more.
00:09:49If after talking to me
00:09:50you will have so-called
00:09:51secular thoughts,
00:09:52let you still go to Communion.
00:09:55I am sure that the hands
00:09:56that will put a patch
00:09:57on your lips
00:09:59will be a hundred times
00:10:00more sinful than your lips.
00:10:07You did not come to Communion today,
00:10:09although you were at confession yesterday.
00:10:11I had sinful thoughts.
00:10:16You are beautiful
00:10:17like a lily flower,
00:10:18like a twig,
00:10:19or like a young rose.
00:10:20God the Merciful
00:10:21gave you one,
00:10:22the only thing
00:10:23that He refused
00:10:24to a thousand women,
00:10:25immeasurable beauty.
00:10:26And no one will understand
00:10:27why He did so.
00:10:28It would be a terrible,
00:10:29terrifying and shameful thing
00:10:30if you despised
00:10:31this heavenly gift
00:10:32and made it your own.
00:10:35Your beauty
00:10:36does not belong to you
00:10:37but to God.
00:10:38Your body is the Church
00:10:39of the Holy Spirit
00:10:40which is in us
00:10:41and which we have from God,
00:10:42because we are not
00:10:43for ourselves.
00:10:44Remember,
00:10:45you did not contribute
00:10:46to your beauty.
00:10:47It was given to you
00:10:48by the Most High,
00:10:49so respect it.
00:10:50Never conduct
00:10:51light-minded conversations
00:10:52and do not lead
00:10:53your thoughts
00:10:54to temptation.
00:10:55Create in yourself
00:10:56an angelic soul
00:10:57and stand
00:10:58in the likeness of an angel.
00:10:59Never think
00:11:00about things
00:11:01that are charming on the outside
00:11:02and hideous
00:11:03and plump on the inside.
00:11:04Let satan's temptations
00:11:05dwell in you.
00:11:07Walking down the street
00:11:08you certainly feel
00:11:09men's gazes on you.
00:11:10It is certainly
00:11:11not unpleasant for you.
00:11:12They certainly
00:11:13arouse in you
00:11:14joy.
00:11:15This is very bad.
00:11:16If you feel
00:11:17joy in yourself,
00:11:18it is time
00:11:19that these gazes
00:11:20will not please you
00:11:21and for nothing
00:11:22you will have everything
00:11:23that takes
00:11:24its beginning from the body.
00:11:25I forgive you
00:11:26your sins,
00:11:27but remember,
00:11:28stand in the likeness
00:11:29of an angel
00:11:30and do not sin
00:11:31anymore,
00:11:32because sin
00:11:33is the image of God.
00:11:47Where did you come from?
00:11:49From the church.
00:11:50From the church?
00:11:51Did you have holy thoughts?
00:11:53I had different thoughts.
00:11:57Do you know
00:11:58what I was thinking about
00:11:59all morning?
00:12:00How could I know?
00:12:01I was sitting here
00:12:02and thinking about you.
00:12:03What did you come up with?
00:12:04I was wondering
00:12:05what your name was.
00:12:06What do you need it for?
00:12:07For further thinking.
00:12:08What do you need to know?
00:12:09You'll make up some rumors.
00:12:11What rumors?
00:12:12Rumors about my name?
00:12:13Rumors about your name.
00:12:14I swear
00:12:15by the word of God
00:12:16that I will
00:12:17carry this name
00:12:18deep in my heart.
00:12:19Fucsia Pelargonia Tulip.
00:12:20What do you prefer?
00:12:21I prefer brightness.
00:12:22Brightness suits your name.
00:12:24Then close your eyes
00:12:25and see the darkness.
00:12:27That's all?
00:12:28Then I'll write
00:12:29my name on the snow.
00:12:37Can I open my eyes now?
00:12:38Yes.
00:12:40Eva.
00:12:41In Hebrew,
00:12:42Jeve.
00:12:43And Jeve in Hebrew
00:12:44means to exist.
00:12:45Eva is the existence
00:12:46that was, is and will be.
00:12:48It's beautiful what you say,
00:12:49but I have to go.
00:12:50Where?
00:12:51Home and then to the office.
00:12:52You work in the office?
00:12:53Yes, in the office of the department
00:12:54of transport.
00:12:55And what do you do
00:12:56in the department of transport?
00:12:57I add, subtract,
00:12:58but above all,
00:12:59I write 9 articles,
00:13:0040 columns,
00:13:01a total of 250 lines
00:13:02per day to be written.
00:13:03You write?
00:13:04Yes.
00:13:05I really like to write.
00:13:06Can I write to you?
00:13:07I don't understand.
00:13:08Letters.
00:13:09I'll send you letters to the office.
00:13:10You don't have to read them.
00:13:11You don't have to answer
00:13:12to those letters.
00:13:13You will only receive
00:13:14letters from me.
00:13:17But how not to read
00:13:18and how not to answer?
00:13:19If you write to me,
00:13:20I will read and answer.
00:13:24First of all,
00:13:25betrayal is common,
00:13:26like a breath.
00:13:27And in your eyes,
00:13:28like in the pure hearts of 9,
00:13:29of which St. John says
00:13:30you have no betrayal,
00:13:31only happiness can come
00:13:33to this soul,
00:13:34stand before these eyes
00:13:35and say,
00:13:36I am you.
00:13:37Did you notice
00:13:38that I always dress
00:13:39in black and white or gray?
00:13:40It was my old habit.
00:13:41It was me
00:13:42as a little girl.
00:13:43And now I want
00:13:44to be surrounded by
00:13:45joy,
00:13:46pinkness,
00:13:47blue and azure.
00:13:48The fact that I could
00:13:49turn my eyes away
00:13:50from eternity
00:13:51and see the chaos
00:13:52and harmony of life
00:13:53filled with
00:13:54an exquisite amazement.
00:13:55Let me write my letters
00:13:56with leaving
00:13:57a margin in the middle
00:13:58so that one day
00:13:59I can put all your letters
00:14:00in a book
00:14:01to which I will look
00:14:02every day.
00:14:03The second letter
00:14:04envies the coffee
00:14:05you drink,
00:14:06envies the bread
00:14:07you spread with butter,
00:14:08envies your hair brush,
00:14:10envies the handle
00:14:11you touch
00:14:12with your gloves
00:14:13on a cold day,
00:14:14but even more envies
00:14:15your glove.
00:14:16I was just about to write
00:14:17to you when
00:14:18two wild pigeons
00:14:19appeared in a clean
00:14:20square window.
00:14:21They flew
00:14:22one next to the other
00:14:23under the clouds
00:14:24until they disappeared
00:14:25in a clear blue sky.
00:14:26Do you think
00:14:27it was an ordinary phenomenon?
00:14:28Letter 3,
00:14:29letter 4,
00:14:30letter 5,
00:14:31letter 6,
00:14:32letter 7,
00:14:33letter 8,
00:14:34letter after letter,
00:14:35word after word,
00:14:36sentence after sentence,
00:14:37longing after longing,
00:14:38feeling after feeling,
00:14:39desire after desire.
00:14:40Letter 9.
00:14:42I didn't touch your lips
00:14:43with my lips,
00:14:44I didn't even touch
00:14:45your hand with my lips.
00:14:46I was allowed
00:14:47to do only one thing,
00:14:48to press my lips
00:14:49to the cold wall
00:14:50behind which you
00:14:51rest in your sleep.
00:14:52Tonight I did it
00:14:53for the last time
00:14:54because I can't
00:14:55marry you,
00:14:56because I have a wife
00:14:57with whom I am bound
00:14:58to the moment
00:14:59when she will stop living
00:15:00or when she will stop living.
00:15:01Yesterday
00:15:02my divorce took place.
00:15:03I lost her
00:15:04shamefully
00:15:05with Kretes,
00:15:06even now I dream
00:15:07of a divorce.
00:15:08I love her
00:15:09but I won't see her
00:15:10anymore.
00:15:12I saw despair
00:15:13and bitterness
00:15:14in your mother's eyes
00:15:15because I thought
00:15:16that you would be
00:15:17the last Wajdak
00:15:18if you didn't leave now.
00:15:40Łukasz Niepołomski
00:15:41left?
00:15:42He did.
00:15:43He left Warsaw
00:15:44completely?
00:15:45He left
00:15:46completely.
00:15:47Was it his farewell?
00:15:48It was.
00:15:49When did he leave?
00:15:50Today.
00:15:51Where to?
00:15:52He didn't say.
00:15:53He didn't say anything?
00:15:54He didn't say.
00:15:55And who cares
00:15:56where such a guy goes?
00:15:57It's none of your business.
00:15:58It's none of yours, either.
00:15:59I've been waiting
00:16:00for him for a long time.
00:16:01I've been waiting
00:16:02for him for a long time.
00:16:03I've been waiting
00:16:04for him for a long time.
00:16:05I've been waiting
00:16:06for him for a long time.
00:16:07I've been waiting
00:16:08Yours neither. He's not the right man for you.
00:16:11It's not up to you to decide, Anielu.
00:16:13You'd better find a decent man, not a scoundrel like him.
00:16:17Why do you have a grudge against me?
00:16:20Just because I give you nipples?
00:16:22You're just a quokka walking around where your husband tells you to?
00:16:26You think I didn't see you looking at him?
00:16:29I feel sorry for you.
00:16:31Whenever your husband looks at you, you die of fear.
00:16:34You quokka!
00:16:37There should be peace.
00:16:39And not this word.
00:16:43I'd like to remind you that my fate depends on your fate, Mr. Niepołomski.
00:16:48A short letter from him will suffice, and I'll lose my job at Kraft.
00:16:52And we can't afford that in any case.
00:16:56Aren't you ashamed to say such things, Father?
00:16:59That a man like him should decide about your fate?
00:17:02It cost me too much blood to ruin everything with a stupid word.
00:17:07Too much blood.
00:17:09Now I have to suffer because of your...
00:17:12moods.
00:17:14It cost you, Father?
00:17:16You were after him from the beginning.
00:17:18He wanted to buy that job for you.
00:17:20He doesn't care about you at all.
00:17:22You should know that he was after you, and no one is after you anymore.
00:17:26And that's what hurts you.
00:17:28When you give birth to three children, you'll get nipples, too.
00:17:31I don't repeat such words in my house or in my company.
00:17:35I'm appealing for respect.
00:17:37For an old man.
00:17:40And who does Father pay attention to?
00:17:42If Father...
00:17:44You won't decide where I should be.
00:17:46Get out.
00:17:48Both of you. You and Father.
00:17:50I said, get out.
00:17:53I've announced that Niepołomski's room is to be rented.
00:17:57I disagree.
00:17:59If Mother rents this room to someone, then...
00:18:02Then I'll go out on the street and give myself to the best.
00:18:06You have to forget about him, otherwise you'll die.
00:18:09Then I'll die!
00:18:11Does Mother think it's such a fear to die?
00:18:14For me, dying is like this.
00:18:16He...
00:18:18Does Mother think it's such a fear to die?
00:18:20For me, dying is like this.
00:18:22He'll never get a divorce.
00:18:24Then let him not get it, I don't care about it.
00:18:26And what do you care about?
00:18:28Think about it for a moment and tell me.
00:18:30What do you care about?
00:18:32I don't want anything from you.
00:18:34He'll never come back to you.
00:18:36But I'll never forget him.
00:18:38Even if he beat me, even if he kicked me, even if he dragged my hair on the floor,
00:18:43even if he kissed me on the arms, on the legs, so that I could only see him, do you understand?
00:18:48You're talking nonsense.
00:18:50You have to think about yourself day and night.
00:18:52If it weren't for me, you wouldn't exist at all.
00:18:55I gave you into this world.
00:18:57I gave you the life you're living now.
00:18:59Then let Mother take it, please.
00:19:01I felt it at night when you were a little baby.
00:19:04And what, do you want it all now?
00:19:07You don't know about life as much as I do.
00:19:09And Mother doesn't know what I feel.
00:19:11Yes, I know that too.
00:19:13I used to be in love with a girl too.
00:19:16Fortunately, it's all over now.
00:19:20But Mother didn't love like I did.
00:19:24How do you know that?
00:19:26Because if Mother loved like I did,
00:19:30she wouldn't be standing over me like a cat.
00:19:33A terrible, pitiless, insensitive cat.
00:19:38I kicked Mother out of my care, because it was more convenient for her.
00:19:42How can Mother go through the throat of words,
00:19:44you have to forget him, forget Łukasz.
00:19:47Child, I'm not telling you anything.
00:19:51I just want to push you away from the abyss.
00:19:54Because you're standing in front of the abyss.
00:19:56And you don't even see it.
00:19:57Maybe I want to jump into that abyss.
00:19:59Maybe that's my choice.
00:20:00Everything passes.
00:20:02One day you'll understand.
00:20:03You're just like everyone else,
00:20:04but you don't know it yet because you're too young.
00:20:06Such love like mine, no one...
00:20:08Husbands forget about their wives.
00:20:11Wives forget about their husbands,
00:20:13to whom they gave their bodies.
00:20:16But there are also those who will never forget.
00:20:18And the Church?
00:20:20And sin?
00:20:22You didn't forget about respect for yourself and your body.
00:20:26No, I didn't forget about that either.
00:20:30What do you want?
00:20:35I want to take his room.
00:20:37You know what I advise you to do?
00:20:40Don't forget him completely,
00:20:42but don't remember him too well either.
00:20:44I'll pay for that room.
00:20:45I want to live in his room.
00:20:47The money is thrown away.
00:20:48You won't lose it.
00:20:49These are my money.
00:20:50I want to live in his room.
00:20:52Do what you want.
00:20:54I won't help you anymore.
00:21:05It was here,
00:21:07you put your lips to this cold wall
00:21:09when I didn't know anything about it.
00:21:12Instead, you kissed me, cold concrete.
00:21:16It was here you dreamed of me
00:21:18when I was sleeping right behind the wall,
00:21:20dreaming of you.
00:21:23Why didn't I wake up then?
00:21:25Why can't I sleep now?
00:21:28I don't know anything about this world anymore.
00:21:30Everything seems to me to be a coincidence.
00:21:32Everything in this world seems to me to be random,
00:21:35fleeting, evil.
00:21:39Will I ever be able to pray in this state?
00:21:43But how can I pray
00:21:46if I would like to pray to you?
00:22:03What can I do for you?
00:22:06I've been trying to contact you for a few months now.
00:22:09I'm a student from Paris.
00:22:11Nice to meet you, editor Bogaczewski.
00:22:13Pobratyńska.
00:22:14I promised a friend of mine who studies with me
00:22:17that I would get her the address of her teacher,
00:22:19Mr. Łukasz Niepołomski.
00:22:21As far as I know, Mr. Niepołomski writes to your newspaper.
00:22:23Yes, he does.
00:22:24Sometimes it's the Department of Anthropology.
00:22:26Unfortunately, Mr. Niepołomski has recently changed his address.
00:22:28He lives somewhere in the Lublin province.
00:22:31But I don't know exactly.
00:22:33We haven't been in touch lately.
00:22:35And Mr. Niepołomski has his own property there.
00:22:38You can see right away that you are straight from Paris.
00:22:40A Polish literary scholar and his own property.
00:22:43He is a teacher at a count's house.
00:22:45I know the shape of his children.
00:22:47Please visit me in a week or two.
00:22:49And when Mr. Niepołomski writes to me,
00:22:51then I will know something more.
00:22:53In any case, I will be happy to help you
00:22:55if I can.
00:22:57Does Mr. Niepołomski visit Warsaw at all?
00:23:00He used to visit quite regularly.
00:23:02But lately, he's been rather quiet.
00:23:04But as soon as he talks to me,
00:23:06I'll let you know right away.
00:23:08Maybe we'll even arrange a meeting in my office.
00:23:11I'll probably have a good wine or champagne.
00:23:14Do you like my idea?
00:23:16I don't know if I'll be in Warsaw then.
00:23:18It's more likely that I'll be in Paris.
00:23:20I forgot that you study abroad.
00:23:22It's a pity.
00:23:23Because even if you were looking for an internship,
00:23:25as a secretary,
00:23:27I could offer you this and that.
00:23:30I mean, of course, a job.
00:23:32To be honest, they pay me well.
00:23:34Thank you very much,
00:23:36but I'm not looking for a job right now.
00:23:38But you helped me a lot anyway.
00:23:40I do what I can.
00:23:41I can't do much.
00:23:42But please believe me,
00:23:43I would like more.
00:23:44Please greet Mr. Niepołomski from my friend.
00:23:46Does that mean you won't visit me anymore?
00:23:48Maybe someday, when I come to Warsaw.
00:23:50Goodbye.
00:23:51I cordially invite you to coffee, cognac, good wine,
00:23:53about this and that.
00:23:56I see that Niepołomski is a very lucky man.
00:24:19I'm very sorry, gentlemen.
00:24:21It's my first time in Puławy.
00:24:23I'm looking for a count.
00:24:24I forgot his name.
00:24:25My friend lives with him.
00:24:28There is one such count here.
00:24:31Szczerbic, I think.
00:24:33Szczerbic.
00:24:34You can tell by his lips.
00:24:36Maybe.
00:24:37As I said, I don't remember his name.
00:24:39But if there are no more count here...
00:24:41But he's not lying with you now.
00:24:43He's in the hospital now.
00:24:45They shot each other with one teacher
00:24:47and both of them ended up in the hospital.
00:24:50With which teacher?
00:24:52With some guy.
00:24:53That's what people say.
00:24:54Apparently, he was teaching his children
00:24:56and they shot each other.
00:24:58But I'm sure it was about a woman.
00:25:00It's always about a woman.
00:25:01Probably, yes.
00:25:02And where is this hospital?
00:25:03Behind the park, two kilometers straight.
00:25:05Yes, straight, straight.
00:25:06Thank you very much.
00:25:07But wait!
00:25:08Yes?
00:25:10Are you going to make a career in this hole?
00:25:12No, no, honestly, I wasn't going to.
00:25:14Because we can have fun together.
00:25:17I'm sorry, but I don't have time for fun.
00:25:20You must be from Warsaw, right?
00:25:22Yes, yes, from Warsaw.
00:25:24I recognized right away that you're from Warsaw.
00:25:26My friend and I are also from Warsaw.
00:25:28Just for a moment, because we're doing business here.
00:25:31I'm very pleased, but I'm really in a hurry.
00:25:34Ma'am?
00:25:35I'm listening.
00:25:37Straight.
00:25:38It's there.
00:25:41Wait!
00:25:42We just wanted to say a compliment.
00:25:44You're a nice woman, but we're not worse than other guys, are we?
00:25:47Of course, we're not worse.
00:25:49Look, money is like ice here.
00:25:51If you wanted, we could have fun together for a week.
00:25:54Give me a break, Daria!
00:25:56Wait.
00:25:57You'll have to ask for it yourself.
00:26:00Countess.
00:26:01They'll leave you.
00:26:02It's some Montecucu.
00:26:04Two cuckoos, Moniusz, Countess.
00:26:07How did you find me here?
00:26:09I asked where I could be, you disappeared so suddenly.
00:26:12God, I'm sorry.
00:26:14I'm sorry for the sudden disappearance and I'm sorry for the silence.
00:26:17I had an argument with my employee.
00:26:18I know, I heard.
00:26:19Someone stole your letter.
00:26:20There were rumors, I couldn't stand them, I was pissed off.
00:26:22Then the argument came out of it.
00:26:24I'm sorry, I'll fix everything.
00:26:26I'm sorry.
00:26:27I'm sorry.
00:26:28I'm sorry.
00:26:29I'm sorry.
00:26:30I'm sorry.
00:26:31I'm sorry.
00:26:32I'm sorry.
00:26:33I'm sorry.
00:26:34I'm sorry.
00:26:35I'm sorry.
00:26:36I'll fix everything.
00:26:37You can fix everything.
00:26:38I was afraid I'd never see you again.
00:26:40The doctor said I could die.
00:26:42I'll take care of you.
00:26:43I don't have enough money to support myself.
00:26:45We won't be able to live on it.
00:26:46I'll work.
00:26:48But you're beautiful.
00:26:50And good, but you have a family, a job in Warsaw.
00:26:52You'll get the highest salary here.
00:26:54I don't have anything, Łukasz.
00:26:55I don't have a family, I don't have a job.
00:26:56Tell me why you wrote that terrible letter.
00:26:58I had no choice.
00:26:59Your family, your mother, your sister forced it on me.
00:27:03I came to Warsaw once.
00:27:04I walked under your windows at night.
00:27:06I couldn't even see your shadow.
00:27:08Łukasz, what's going to happen to us?
00:27:10I heard that in Rome you can get a divorce by the right means.
00:27:13I'll go there and in two, three months I should be free.
00:27:17I'll find a flat for us.
00:27:19We'll live there under one roof like a husband and wife, but next to each other.
00:27:23Until you get a divorce.
00:27:33There used to be a Jewish district here.
00:27:37Here were the best and the cheapest apartments in the Jewish district.
00:27:42You could pay from the top for a year.
00:27:45It was cheaper.
00:27:47The best and the cheapest apartments were always in the Jewish district.
00:27:52Away from the Christian eyes,
00:27:55from your beloved brothers and sisters in the church.
00:28:10Mrs. Niepołomska,
00:28:12why do you live like you're divorced?
00:28:16Your husband sleeps in one room,
00:28:19and your wife is very far away in the other.
00:28:22It doesn't fit.
00:28:24My husband is sick. He needs peace and quiet.
00:28:28Well, where is it written that a husband should necessarily be disturbed by his wife?
00:28:34My husband can't sleep when there's another person next to him.
00:28:38I'm not surprised at all.
00:28:41If I were him, I wouldn't sleep very much either.
00:28:46Please leave me alone. I'm at work.
00:28:49Yes, of course. Of course, work is a holy thing.
00:28:57What's this? A new one?
00:28:59Some girl from Warsaw, apparently.
00:29:01She came to us to make a career.
00:29:03In a factory.
00:29:04They threw her out of the capital.
00:29:06She came to us.
00:29:08She takes such good care of herself.
00:29:10You see what a beautiful daughter she has, Laluńa.
00:29:13And Laluńa.
00:29:15When I work, my daughter gets worse.
00:29:28How was your day?
00:29:30As usual. I brought food from the canteen.
00:29:33Ewa, why should we behave like scruples?
00:29:37Because we're not husband and wife. Eat.
00:29:40There's only one happiness, not a million.
00:29:42Why shouldn't we go against this one, if it's the only one for us?
00:29:46Because we're not husband and wife. Eat.
00:29:49Do you think what I feel for you is bad?
00:29:51That's why I didn't say it.
00:29:53I've had enough of it.
00:29:55You're pulling my hand. I feel like you're further away than ever.
00:29:58Łukasz, until you get better, we're not leaving.
00:30:01These emotions are unnecessary.
00:30:03Why are you so afraid? Like a little, timid dove.
00:30:06Why are you trembling so much?
00:30:08Are you afraid of a hand stroking you, a heart that only wants to beat for you?
00:30:11Why?
00:30:12We're not...
00:30:13In Japan, women bathe in the company of men without any embarrassment.
00:30:17On the Polynesian islands, people walk around naked, like animals.
00:30:20They don't feel shame.
00:30:22And we're far from nature, that's why we're unhappy.
00:30:24Because we're civilized people.
00:30:26Łukasz, what are you doing?
00:30:27What is civilization?
00:30:28Civilization is stress.
00:30:30We're only stressed and deprived of the right to happiness by people
00:30:33who were given the sense of guilt instead of freedom.
00:30:36Why should I feel guilt for you? Because we want happiness for ourselves?
00:30:39You don't respect marriage, you don't respect the institution of marriage.
00:30:42I love you.
00:30:43More than my life and my views.
00:30:45And I'll do everything to be with you.
00:30:46How do you know you love me? Where is it written?
00:30:48I feel it.
00:30:49Why are you afraid of a hand stroking you, a heart that only wants to beat for you?
00:30:53Why?
00:30:54Then I felt my hands quickly, like a madman, untie, tear her dress,
00:30:57tear off light-colored sleeves, tear off ribbons, tear off skirts.
00:31:00And happy days of love flowed by.
00:31:02And garden gardens were created.
00:31:04Kisses entwined bodies, bodies had no secrets for themselves.
00:31:22The tenth letter.
00:31:24I couldn't describe the devastation I'm experiencing with words.
00:31:27I sat here in this hotel room to write.
00:31:29But what can I write?
00:31:32For a moment in the car it seemed to me that I went crazy.
00:31:35Yes, I went crazy because I left you.
00:31:37Existence only for you and because of you.
00:31:39And I just left you.
00:31:41But I swear on my love for you that as soon as I get a divorce, I'll come back.
00:31:45I'm coming back to you like on wings.
00:32:02And where did your husband go, Mrs. Niepołomska?
00:32:07He cured her and ran away right away.
00:32:10He left.
00:32:12Ah, such a beautiful wife, and her husband is leaving.
00:32:16He left for a while, he'll be back soon.
00:32:19Because it happens differently.
00:32:22When a man gets what he wanted, he doesn't always come back.
00:32:28I don't know what you're talking about.
00:32:30Men are not like that.
00:32:32I don't know what you're talking about.
00:32:34Mrs. Niepołomska, you are a good woman.
00:32:39But you are alone.
00:32:41It's hard for you to be alone.
00:32:44You would be useful to a man.
00:32:47But not the one who is far away, but the one who is close.
00:32:52Please leave me alone, I'm at work.
00:32:55As you wish, Mrs. Niepołomska.
00:32:57I just wanted to keep company.
00:33:00I thought you were alone.
00:33:02It's sad to be alone.
00:33:10Marshal's daughter got tired.
00:33:12Look at her belly, she's pregnant.
00:33:15Our pretty girl is pregnant.
00:33:17Because a pretty girl is sick in the belly.
00:33:19Yes.
00:33:21A pretty girl is sick in the belly.
00:33:23Yes.
00:33:44Does Mrs. Ewa Pobratyńska work here?
00:33:47Yes, it's me.
00:33:50I'm here on Mr. Łukasz Niepołomski's orders.
00:33:53Do you know where he is?
00:33:55Yes, in Rome.
00:33:57More precisely, in a Roman prison.
00:33:59Oh, Jesus.
00:34:01But don't worry.
00:34:03He's fine.
00:34:05He got involved in a small scam.
00:34:07He was working for the Austrian embassy.
00:34:09He withdrew some money from there.
00:34:11He was caught.
00:34:13He asked me as a friend
00:34:15to give you some money
00:34:17for his return.
00:34:19But to be honest,
00:34:21I don't know when he's going to come back.
00:34:25And who are you?
00:34:27Count Zygmunt Szczerbic.
00:34:29You shot at Łukasz.
00:34:31Yes, I did.
00:34:33I shot at him because I had a matter of honor with him.
00:34:36But now I received an order from him
00:34:38and I'm getting rid of it.
00:34:40Here you are.
00:34:42Here's 50 rubles for you.
00:34:47Thank you.
00:34:52But I don't know if I'll have anything to give back.
00:34:55It's a matter between me and Mr. Niepołomski.
00:34:59If I could be of any use to you,
00:35:01please write to me.
00:35:03I'll be at your disposal.
00:35:05Łukasz
00:35:07asked me to be your guardian.
00:35:13Thank you.
00:35:17You're welcome.
00:35:26He sent me his money like some whore.
00:35:29Here you are.
00:35:31And be quiet.
00:35:33You did your thing.
00:35:35Here you are.
00:35:3750 rubles and shut up.
00:35:39You betrayed me.
00:35:41You left me for someone else.
00:35:43What am I going to do now?
00:35:45What am I going to do with this child
00:35:47who has no place in this world anymore?
00:35:49What am I going to do?
00:35:51Am I going to return to Warsaw with him
00:35:53and put myself and the child in danger
00:35:55and humiliate those who supposedly
00:35:57once wished me well?
00:35:59God
00:36:01God, give me a sign.
00:36:03Give me any sign.
00:36:16The moon was shining that evening.
00:36:19A terrible pain spread
00:36:21from the inside to the floor.
00:36:23It seemed to her that the pain
00:36:25would split her bones and break her legs.
00:36:27She felt something hard in her spine.
00:36:29She had the impression
00:36:31that her half-belly was cracking.
00:36:33One more, second pain,
00:36:35as if she was being struck by lightning.
00:36:37Using her hand without knowing
00:36:39what she was doing,
00:36:41she rubbed the child's head.
00:36:43The newborn, lying in the fetal ointment,
00:36:45slid out between the thighs.
00:36:47She probably didn't know what was going on,
00:36:49she only felt animal relief.
00:36:51But then a cry spread
00:36:53among the bloodied fetal thighs.
00:36:55Then she stood on her feet.
00:36:57Warm streams of blood
00:36:59flowed down her knees and calves.
00:37:01From one swing, she rolled
00:37:03four corners of a rag
00:37:05and grabbed the whole bunch
00:37:07with a baton, a spacer and a rope.
00:37:09She quietly approached the door
00:37:11and looked at the haystack.
00:37:13It was quiet. She ran out.
00:37:15She didn't know when she found herself
00:37:17on the stairs leading to the cloaca.
00:37:19She came in quietly, like a ghost,
00:37:21soundlessly.
00:37:23Suddenly she looked
00:37:25at the liquid, wrinkled surface
00:37:27in front of her eyes.
00:37:29And with all her might,
00:37:31she threw the rag into the bottom hole.
00:37:33She turned her face over
00:37:35and spied with her eyes what was going on.
00:37:37She looked at how the canvas
00:37:39and the small handles,
00:37:41similar to tulip dusters,
00:37:43opened and closed quickly.
00:37:45Her stomach was strained.
00:37:47Her small knees were bending
00:37:49more and more,
00:37:51and she only heard a squeaky,
00:37:53mournful cry, like an earthquake.
00:37:55Then she threw herself into the hole
00:37:57with her arms outstretched to save.
00:37:59To save.
00:38:01God knows everything.
00:38:03To save.
00:38:05But there was nothing there.
00:38:07Only in the place where she saw
00:38:09the rag covered with black spots
00:38:11and the legs and arms
00:38:13pulled by the rattle,
00:38:15there was a slight deepening.
00:38:19As if a crouched grave.
00:38:31The lady has returned.
00:38:33Is the mother at home?
00:38:35No.
00:38:37And the father?
00:38:39He's not here.
00:38:41Where is he?
00:38:43He should be in the pub.
00:38:45There's no place for chickens in my house.
00:38:49I haven't yet become
00:38:51the person
00:38:53whose mother gave me
00:38:55in the name of mercy.
00:38:57But maybe from now on
00:38:59I should think, who knows?
00:39:01Be quiet.
00:39:03You've made a choice.
00:39:05You've chosen a place
00:39:07in the world on your own.
00:39:09So now it's up to you.
00:39:11I didn't come to my mother,
00:39:13only to my father.
00:39:15Then look for him in the pub.
00:39:17He's not here.
00:39:21Where is the lady going?
00:39:23I want to see his room.
00:39:25But there's a new location there.
00:39:27I just want to see his room.
00:39:29Good morning.
00:39:33Good morning.
00:39:35I know who you are.
00:39:37Adolf Horst.
00:39:39A philosopher.
00:39:41I've been living here for a few months
00:39:43and it just so happens that I know your history.
00:39:45So I already have my own history.
00:39:47In this house, yes.
00:39:49If you were interested,
00:39:51I would have a proposition for you.
00:39:55I wonder what proposition.
00:39:57Would you like to meet
00:39:59Mrs. Niepołomska?
00:40:01Who is she?
00:40:03Mrs. Łukasz Niepołomski's wife.
00:40:05Why are you offering me
00:40:07this acquaintance?
00:40:09Because perhaps you would learn
00:40:11something about your good friend.
00:40:13Something you haven't heard
00:40:15or known so far.
00:40:17I'm not interested in your proposition.
00:40:19I'll just take a look at the room
00:40:21if you don't mind.
00:40:23Of course, please do.
00:40:25I don't know if I should,
00:40:27but my friend runs
00:40:29a very nice confectionery.
00:40:31And it just so happens that she's looking for employees.
00:40:33So if you were interested,
00:40:35at least temporarily.
00:40:37I'll think about it.
00:40:39I'm very glad
00:40:41that I met you, Mrs. Ewa.
00:40:43You are very beautiful, you know that, right?
00:40:47You're right, Mr. Horst.
00:40:49It's my business who I am
00:40:51and what I do.
00:40:59I knew right away
00:41:01that it was you.
00:41:03Who?
00:41:05That poor woman
00:41:07that my husband lost.
00:41:09You feel like
00:41:11a betrayed woman, don't you?
00:41:13No, no.
00:41:15Why would I feel that way?
00:41:17What did you want to ask me?
00:41:19Do you still love him?
00:41:25I left
00:41:27all my loved ones
00:41:29for him,
00:41:31and then I was left alone
00:41:33because my brother, my parents
00:41:35all died and he got bored of me.
00:41:37He wanted to leave me.
00:41:39I defended myself,
00:41:41I defended myself in all possible ways,
00:41:43but you must have been talking about it.
00:41:45He likes to talk badly about me,
00:41:47and you were his new
00:41:49beloved flower, so you probably...
00:41:51Yes, he was talking about you.
00:41:53So he was talking badly?
00:41:55It doesn't hurt me anymore
00:41:57after what I went through.
00:41:59You didn't answer my question
00:42:01if you still love him.
00:42:05No.
00:42:07Not anymore.
00:42:09So why don't you want to divorce him?
00:42:13Look,
00:42:15if he would have
00:42:17treated me like a human being,
00:42:19with respect, calmly,
00:42:21he would have probably found
00:42:23But I assure you,
00:42:25nothing like this has happened recently.
00:42:27And I am also a human being,
00:42:29and you have to talk to me like to a human being.
00:42:31He is now
00:42:33in prison in Rome.
00:42:35You can't even address him like that.
00:42:37What did he do?
00:42:39He stole.
00:42:41He probably didn't have enough money for a divorce.
00:42:43Poor man.
00:42:45Poor man.
00:42:53I have
00:42:55his photo from his youth.
00:42:57Do you want to see it?
00:43:09Do you see
00:43:11those eyes?
00:43:15Those hair, so lush.
00:43:19They are still lush.
00:43:21He is very young
00:43:23in this photo.
00:43:27I can see
00:43:29that you love him very much.
00:43:37Can you stop
00:43:39these photos
00:43:41if you want to?
00:43:43Thank you.
00:44:09Thank you.
00:44:23My fellow-writers,
00:44:25who watch the world
00:44:27through the earpiece,
00:44:31you must know one thing.
00:44:33You will name Koutoun.
00:44:35Koutoun and human darkness
00:44:37will not help us.
00:44:43It is bad.
00:44:47It is especially bad for us,
00:44:49intelligent people.
00:44:51Why only intelligent people?
00:44:53It is bad for everyone.
00:44:55It is because all the ideas
00:44:57that an intelligent person believes in
00:44:59are trampled upon in this country
00:45:01by the officials,
00:45:03journalists,
00:45:05and the media.
00:45:07What society needs
00:45:09is a thought,
00:45:11an idea.
00:45:13Because without an idea
00:45:15and a thought
00:45:17there is nothing.
00:45:19There is no human,
00:45:21there is no reason.
00:45:23There is only a cattle.
00:45:25A cattle that wants to eat,
00:45:27sleep and go far.
00:45:29That is why we need
00:45:31a higher element.
00:45:33The rest, of course, is not needed.
00:45:35You do not talk
00:45:37to strangers.
00:45:39It is a pity.
00:45:43You are my inspiration.
00:45:45When I look at you,
00:45:47my thoughts run 100 times faster.
00:45:49I only work here, Mr. Horst.
00:45:51I know you work here,
00:45:53but maybe after work you could
00:45:55talk to me about coffee and cookies.
00:45:57Don't you think that the sugar worker
00:45:59dreams of eating coffee and cookies
00:46:01I don't know.
00:46:03But I know what I dream of.
00:46:05All my dreams have you in them.
00:46:07Mr. Horst, I only work here,
00:46:09and after work I only dream of getting some sleep.
00:46:13Please remember me.
00:46:15To remain in your memory
00:46:17is a great honor for a modest philosopher
00:46:19like me.
00:46:21Please remember me.
00:46:23My proposition remains
00:46:25current all the time.
00:46:31Ten thirty.
00:46:33Do you remember me?
00:46:35Yes.
00:46:37I was looking for you.
00:46:39For what reason?
00:46:41I am your guardian, don't you remember?
00:46:43You did not inform me
00:46:45about the change of accommodation.
00:46:47I did not feel obligated.
00:46:49I am a free man.
00:46:51I just wanted you to know
00:46:53that I was there.
00:46:55I paid that Jew
00:46:57a lot of money.
00:46:59And I threatened him
00:47:01that if he said a word
00:47:03I would crush him like a dog.
00:47:05A word about what?
00:47:07I don't know.
00:47:09I didn't think about it,
00:47:11but I arranged everything.
00:47:13Why did you interfere?
00:47:15Because I am your guardian.
00:47:17Do you still want to know
00:47:19what is going on with him?
00:47:21Yes.
00:47:23Can I speak openly?
00:47:25Yes.
00:47:27So all of this
00:47:29is not an idea.
00:47:31And you already came to such a conclusion.
00:47:33I was not sure,
00:47:35it is difficult to be sure
00:47:37in my situation.
00:47:39Yes, I sympathize with you.
00:47:41Uncertainty in matters of feelings
00:47:43is a terrible pain,
00:47:45but I have good news for you.
00:47:47I am going to Riviera.
00:47:49If you want, maybe
00:47:51I can also be in Rome.
00:47:53I can visit him.
00:47:55But what will it give?
00:47:57If you want, maybe
00:47:59you can go with me.
00:48:01We will go to Rome.
00:48:03We will visit him in prison.
00:48:05I will arrange for you
00:48:07a permit for regular visits.
00:48:09Are you kidding?
00:48:11I am just a cashier
00:48:13from a confectionery.
00:48:15I have a lot of debts.
00:48:17I don't even have much
00:48:19where to live.
00:48:21I will pay for everything.
00:48:23I wanted to ask you
00:48:25where does your kindness come from?
00:48:27It is my fault.
00:48:29Besides, you suffered a lot.
00:48:31You deserve happiness.
00:48:33I already took money from you once.
00:48:35That's good,
00:48:37because I have money.
00:48:39Please tell me honestly
00:48:41if you are only interested in me
00:48:43because of Lukasz.
00:48:45No, I cannot give the word of honor
00:48:47that it is only like that.
00:48:49You are beautiful, but you know it.
00:48:51And you should
00:48:53sit on the throne.
00:48:55I would like to take you
00:48:57out of this community.
00:48:59I will look at you.
00:49:01I will admire your beauty.
00:49:03I will enjoy your happiness.
00:49:05But people will say
00:49:07that I went with you
00:49:09because no one believes in your kindness.
00:49:11So what do you choose?
00:49:13Do you prefer good opinion
00:49:15in your little world
00:49:17or happiness next to your beloved man?
00:49:19You are more important to me.
00:49:21His wife gives him permission to divorce.
00:49:23He does not know about it yet.
00:49:25I can give him good news.
00:49:27I will stop you.
00:49:29But you will not leave me.
00:49:31Me?
00:49:33I am your guardian.
00:49:37Okay.
00:49:39I will go with you.
00:49:41From now on, I am in your hands.
00:49:49I will protect you.
00:49:51And I will love you.
00:49:53I will look after you.
00:49:55I will love you.
00:49:57I love you.
00:49:59I love you.
00:50:01I love you.
00:50:03I love you.
00:50:05I love you.
00:50:07I love you.
00:50:13I just picked up the news
00:50:15that he was released from the prison
00:50:17I don't know where he is.
00:50:18No.
00:50:19But apparently in prison he said he has to play.
00:50:22Maybe he's somewhere here.
00:50:23Or maybe he's somewhere in Poland.
00:50:25Maybe.
00:50:26Did you play?
00:50:27No, no.
00:50:28I don't want to risk my life.
00:50:29And I won, and that's not a small thing.
00:50:32Don't despair.
00:50:33Maybe he wanted to see you so much that you parted.
00:50:36If only we had left a week earlier.
00:50:38I'll go back to Poland and ask.
00:50:39Maybe he was with me, with your parents, or with that Jew.
00:50:41Are you sure he's looking for me at all?
00:50:43Are you sure?
00:50:45No.
00:50:46I don't know what to think anymore and I don't know what to do.
00:50:49Let her stay here for a while.
00:50:51It's a good atmosphere.
00:50:52You will need a rest.
00:50:54Just leave me the address and I'll pass it on to him as soon as we meet.
00:50:58Mr. Count, I'm just a cashier at a confectionery.
00:51:01I don't have money for such expenses.
00:51:12It's not true.
00:51:13You have.
00:51:16Are you kidding me?
00:51:17It's 5,000 francs.
00:51:20Yes.
00:51:21I worked very hard for it.
00:51:23Look around and see how hard it is.
00:51:27I can go to any of these tables in a moment and lose everything in a few seconds.
00:51:32Why are you looking at me like that?
00:51:33One day you will turn to me, or you, or him.
00:51:35Please tell me who he is.
00:51:37I don't know.
00:51:38I don't know who this Mrs. Niepołomski is anymore.
00:51:42All I know is that I love him and I can't belong to two men at the same time.
00:51:46You have to know that.
00:51:48But I'm just your guardian.
00:51:52That's good.
00:51:53Where are you going?
00:51:54The sea is not far from here, is it?
00:51:56Yes.
00:51:57Behind the casino.
00:51:58But be careful.
00:52:00The nights are cold.
00:52:12God, God, God, God.
00:52:15How beautiful you are, how right you are, how healthy you are.
00:52:20How faithful you are to yourself and worthy of your praise.
00:52:24I would give you my wounded soul so that it would take itself and hover over its fans.
00:52:32I would give you my naked body so that it would take itself forever.
00:52:37My body is beautiful and I despise it.
00:52:41God,
00:52:43if you could wash my head of these terrible,
00:52:46fleeting thoughts, these terrible memories.
00:52:51It came into the world thanks to me and I didn't want it to be born.
00:52:57God,
00:52:58if you could bring me back to the time when I didn't know myself, I didn't know men.
00:53:03There is no longer that Eve and there will never be.
00:53:07I killed Jesus.
00:53:08God, I didn't kill you.
00:53:26What are you doing?
00:53:28Stop it, it's not funny.
00:53:35I don't say it is.
00:53:38I lost all my wealth and I have no one in this world.
00:53:41Not only that I have no one in the world, I also lost my wealth and so on.
00:53:47A writer writes not only to himself, but to people.
00:53:50And where are these Polish readers?
00:53:52Where is this dreamy, intelligent and sensitive recipient?
00:53:55Are you a writer?
00:53:57Rudolf Jaśniak,
00:53:59a Polish poet.
00:54:01Temporarily only inactive professionally.
00:54:04Ewa Pobratyńska,
00:54:05a cashier in a confectionery.
00:54:07Temporarily also inactive professionally.
00:54:10You don't look like a cashier.
00:54:12And you look like a writer.
00:54:14It's hard to say it's a compliment.
00:54:19Do you wear slippers?
00:54:23I have slippers on me, but I don't think that's what you're asking about.
00:54:26I'm asking about slippers,
00:54:28because I would like to know if one of them hides a husband.
00:54:32Because if I were your husband,
00:54:34I would sit happily and quietly under your slippers,
00:54:37you cashier in a confectionery.
00:54:41I have slippers on me,
00:54:43but under none of them hides a husband.
00:54:46I would be honored if I could hide under your slippers.
00:54:51You would have to play in a casino first.
00:54:54You are so memorable, you remember that I have nothing.
00:54:56I can lend it to you.
00:54:58Seriously?
00:55:00Seriously.
00:55:02I have 5,000 francs, you can play.
00:55:04Are you sure?
00:55:06Yes, I'm sure.
00:55:08But you play, not me, I'm not lucky.
00:55:10And if I win?
00:55:12Then we'll split it in half.
00:55:14But there is one condition, Mr. Poet of Poland.
00:55:18I'm changing my mind.
00:55:20You play only once.
00:55:22All right.
00:55:23All right.
00:55:25Then you choose a number, I'll choose a color.
00:55:27Number?
00:55:28Six.
00:55:29Why six?
00:55:31A close name consists of six letters.
00:55:33All right.
00:55:35Let's bet on a black six.
00:55:47Amazing!
00:55:50I'll play just one more time.
00:55:51No, you promised.
00:55:53I'll bet only my half.
00:55:55You promised it would be the second time.
00:55:57I have to be lucky.
00:55:59That's why you have to stop.
00:56:07Then promise me that you will come with me to Corsica tomorrow.
00:56:13You treat me as if I were your wife or...
00:56:17Lover.
00:56:19No.
00:56:21I will not love you.
00:56:23I will not even bow to you.
00:56:25My days are numbered.
00:56:27I'm a loafer.
00:56:29So what?
00:56:31Will you come to the coast tomorrow at five?
00:56:33I don't know yet.
00:56:35I have to do something first.
00:56:37I'll be waiting for the time of departure of the ship.
00:56:42How much am I to blame?
00:56:44I would have to count.
00:56:46I don't know.
00:56:48Did you win?
00:56:50I won!
00:56:52Bravo!
00:56:54If I had to count, maybe even less.
00:57:00Please take everything.
00:57:02They belong to you.
00:57:04And if you don't want to have believers,
00:57:06then after the count, please give me or Łukasz the rest.
00:57:09You speak as if we were not to see each other anymore.
00:57:12I don't know. I don't plan anything.
00:57:14And let you come to my room tonight.
00:57:19So this is the end of your care for me?
00:57:22Be mine.
00:57:24Stay mine.
00:57:26I beg you.
00:57:28I will give everything to you.
00:57:30Country, family, religion.
00:57:32Surrounding with Bydgoszcz.
00:57:34I will sell the property.
00:57:39We will live in Paris.
00:57:44You will love this city.
00:57:46You will love this city.
00:57:49Or not.
00:57:51If you choose Neapol, we will go to Neapol.
00:57:54We will be happy.
00:57:56You will be too.
00:58:00This is treason.
00:58:02What you have just done is treason.
00:58:04But you have suffered so much.
00:58:06I will compensate you for everything.
00:58:08We will not care about anything.
00:58:10Convenance, codex, religion.
00:58:12Come with me to my room.
00:58:14You forgot, Mrs. Hrebia.
00:58:16Please leave me alone.
00:58:18We will buy a villa in Paris.
00:58:21You will dress up as the best designers.
00:58:24You will perfume yourself with the most expensive perfumes.
00:58:30After all, I now think about you from corner to corner at night.
00:58:34I dream about you. Do you understand?
00:58:36Your one smile must be enough for me all day, all night.
00:58:40And I love you. I love you more than life.
00:58:41Come with me to my room.
00:58:47You forgot, Mrs. Hrebia.
00:59:11You forgot, Mrs. Hrebia.
00:59:27What are you thinking about?
00:59:29Probably not about me, right?
00:59:31I think that no one gives money for free.
00:59:35It is very possible.
00:59:42Do you like to experience human deeds?
00:59:45I can hardly cope with my own deeds.
00:59:48And you asked me about other deeds.
00:59:50You do not have to look outside.
00:59:52The history of humanity is fulfilled by each of us.
00:59:56Each of us is a deed of sin and redemption.
00:59:59It is easy for you to say, because you ...
01:00:03You do not know what the loneliness of a woman is.
01:00:06You do not know what the loneliness of a woman is.
01:00:11I would love to listen.
01:00:14I will find out.
01:00:18It's like being ...
01:00:23a lonely sailor
01:00:25on this great sea that surrounds us now.
01:00:29You are sailing like us at the moment, but alone.
01:00:32And it's on a leaf,
01:00:34and the sea does whatever it wants with you.
01:00:37Do you know that instead of sitting here with you,
01:00:40I could dry the diapers and hang them in the attic with my sister?
01:00:43You can also hang diapers on the Corsica.
01:00:46Do you see these people over there on the shore?
01:00:49This is part of their life.
01:00:51And by the way, it's unusual.
01:00:54People like them can only be found on the Corsica.
01:00:57Or maybe in our Kielce.
01:00:59Or maybe in our Kielce.
01:01:01The same faces. Please pay attention.
01:01:05I am sometimes ...
01:01:07terrified that others will come for us,
01:01:10they will recognize this world as their own,
01:01:12and no one will remember us anymore.
01:01:14The world will feel just as good with us
01:01:17as without us.
01:01:19We are cut like grain and eaten like meat,
01:01:21and I am not afraid of that, sir.
01:01:23That we will become manure?
01:01:25Yes.
01:01:27We were nothing before we got here,
01:01:29and I have to tell you who I am.
01:01:31Why? I don't want to know.
01:01:33But I have to.
01:01:37I killed my own child.
01:01:59Oh!
01:02:01Do you see that street over there?
01:02:05Napoleon was born in that narrow street.
01:02:08Just think how many people
01:02:10this heroic man killed
01:02:12to complete his work.
01:02:14If you ever come to Poland,
01:02:16please visit me in Krakow.
01:02:18I will be happy to see you
01:02:20if I am still alive.
01:02:22Look at her.
01:02:24She's pretty.
01:02:26Drink, or you'll faint.
01:02:28I wonder what underwear she's wearing underneath.
01:02:31The way the dress is on top,
01:02:33the underwear is soft to the touch.
01:02:35Lacquered slippers,
01:02:37and underneath a delicate gas tank.
01:02:39And what kind of t-shirts she must have,
01:02:41what kind of two-piece t-shirts,
01:02:43what kind of boots,
01:02:45what kind of ponchos,
01:02:47what kind of panties,
01:02:48what kind of perfume.
01:02:50Would you go out with her?
01:02:52Not once, not twice.
01:02:54Drink, or you'll faint.
01:02:56She would need someone like our Nepołomek.
01:02:58He'd sit quietly,
01:03:00and when it came to it,
01:03:02he'd give us the best party.
01:03:04I don't want a wedding.
01:03:06A better adventure than a wedding.
01:03:08Italian or French, what do you think?
01:03:10I like Spanish there.
01:03:12Or maybe Balkan?
01:03:14I prefer Italian.
01:03:16Most women here are French and Italian.
01:03:18Drink, or you'll faint.
01:03:20French and Italian.
01:03:22In order.
01:03:24Polish.
01:03:26You're Polish?
01:03:28What's so strange about it?
01:03:30Nothing.
01:03:32We didn't know.
01:03:34Otherwise, you wouldn't say what you think, right?
01:03:36Probably, yes.
01:03:38Only honest.
01:03:40You're just...
01:03:42Beautiful.
01:03:44That's why you have to humiliate me.
01:03:45You mentioned a certain man.
01:03:47Nepołomek.
01:03:49Yes, what's his name?
01:03:51His name is Łukasz Nepołomski.
01:03:53We called him Nepołomek.
01:03:56Who's his wife?
01:03:58You know her better.
01:04:00Mrs. Rylska from home.
01:04:02Half-Russian, half-Polish.
01:04:04She had a millionaire father.
01:04:06A very rich one.
01:04:08Maybe you've heard of Fabrykant Rylski?
01:04:10No, I don't remember hearing that name.
01:04:12I was a witness at their wedding.
01:04:13They got married in a Catholic church.
01:04:15And Nepołomek is of the same faith.
01:04:17Can you prove it?
01:04:19Of course.
01:04:21I have a document in my cabin,
01:04:23signed by Nepołomek, his wife.
01:04:25Show me the document.
01:04:27Yes, of course.
01:04:29I invite you to my cabin.
01:04:31Gentlemen, excuse me.
01:04:36Please.
01:04:44This is it.
01:04:47You know, our Nepołomek
01:04:49at first was a bit...
01:04:51a bit down-to-earth,
01:04:53a bit on the side.
01:04:55He just sat quietly in the library
01:04:57and read books.
01:04:59Until it suddenly turned out
01:05:01that he's getting married
01:05:03with the richest party in the city.
01:05:05Are they still here?
01:05:07No, they went far away,
01:05:09to New Zealand.
01:05:11He's an anthropologist
01:05:13doing research
01:05:15somewhere in the archipelagos.
01:05:17He always wanted to study
01:05:19the wild people,
01:05:21our Nepołomek.
01:05:23He's smart, smart,
01:05:25quiet,
01:05:27and then it turned out
01:05:29that he was in a Roman prison
01:05:31for theft.
01:05:33I'm sorry,
01:05:35maybe I have a pleasure
01:05:37with Mrs. Nepołomska.
01:05:39Am I blabbering?
01:05:41No, no, no.
01:05:43With Mrs. Nepołomska.
01:05:45I haven't seen them for a long time.
01:05:47I was wondering what to hear from them.
01:05:49Yes, you see,
01:05:51Nepołomek got married.
01:05:53As far as I know,
01:05:55he was waiting for a divorce for a long time.
01:05:57He got it, he got it.
01:05:59His wife helped him with it.
01:06:01Which wife?
01:06:03The current one.
01:06:05She just bought him this divorce
01:06:07and that's it.
01:06:09Today, if you have money,
01:06:11you can buy everything.
01:06:13No, nothing.
01:06:17I'm sorry, maybe
01:06:19maybe I shouldn't,
01:06:21but you are so beautiful.
01:06:24Besides, you know about it,
01:06:26your eyes, your hair, your voice.
01:06:29I've just never met
01:06:31someone as beautiful as you.
01:06:33Do you want to have me?
01:06:36Excuse me?
01:06:38I asked if you want to have me.
01:06:44What kind of question is that?
01:06:46Everyone would like to.
01:06:49But are you asking
01:06:51seriously?
01:06:54Seriously.
01:06:56Now?
01:06:58Now.
01:07:14Oh!
01:07:26Are you done?
01:07:28Yes, it was
01:07:30it was wonderful.
01:07:32You are beautiful, like an angel.
01:07:35I asked if you are done.
01:07:37Yes.
01:07:39Then come down with me.
01:07:40I didn't want to.
01:07:42Come down!
01:08:10Amor.
01:08:20Are you here?
01:08:22As you can see, Mr. Count.
01:08:25Alone?
01:08:27Unlike you,
01:08:29you won't introduce me to the ladies of your heart.
01:08:32These are my French cousins.
01:08:36I spend my solitude with them.
01:08:38But I'll send them away
01:08:40because I'd like to talk to you.
01:09:01Do you know where I can buy a horse?
01:09:04How am I supposed to know?
01:09:05Would you like to have one?
01:09:08I'd like to buy a horse.
01:09:10I'll punish him like a night with an oxamite comb,
01:09:12bloody eyes, and a little beard.
01:09:14I can ask.
01:09:16How long will you stay in Paris?
01:09:18I don't know. And you?
01:09:20I don't know yet. Maybe I'll stay permanently, who knows.
01:09:22I'm sorry if I'm rude,
01:09:24but have you met him?
01:09:26No.
01:09:28That's strange because I had a horse.
01:09:30I only know you.
01:09:32I know from him that you were looking for Niepołomski in Warsaw.
01:09:33No, I wasn't.
01:09:35Right after we left the country,
01:09:37we passed each other very unhappily.
01:09:39As it turned out,
01:09:41Niepołomski was at his parents'
01:09:43and that horse told him that you went with me to Riviera.
01:09:45He told him that you were with me.
01:09:47Can you imagine what Niepołomski felt then?
01:09:49He threw himself at that horse,
01:09:51he wanted to beat him.
01:09:53As a result, there was a huge scandal.
01:09:55The next day, Niepołomski disappeared.
01:09:57And so much was seen of him in Warsaw.
01:09:59So he thinks I'm your lover.
01:10:03Now at least I know that he was honest.
01:10:05At least he was.
01:10:08And do you know that he is now in Borneo?
01:10:11In the wild.
01:10:14He went there with his new wife.
01:10:16He learns morality from those women.
01:10:18Do you know what morality is?
01:10:20Because I thought it was God's law
01:10:22given by God to people,
01:10:24but now I think
01:10:26that it is a communal custom
01:10:28and a kind of temporary agreement
01:10:29forewarned by a certain number of families.
01:10:31Nothing more.
01:10:33And my father says,
01:10:35live until you are full,
01:10:37you will sleep in the coffin.
01:10:39Jerzy, one more time, please.
01:10:41He betrayed you.
01:10:43He married another woman
01:10:45because he believed that you were evil.
01:10:47It was easier that way.
01:10:49And why can't you love me
01:10:51like I love him?
01:10:53What am I worse at?
01:10:55We are not for you, Mr. Count.
01:10:57You are very close to me.
01:10:59Your eyes are terrified,
01:11:01as if they were killed,
01:11:03but when I said about him...
01:11:05Mr. Count,
01:11:07I don't need you for anything,
01:11:09and I don't need you either.
01:11:11But it's not true.
01:11:13I still have the impression
01:11:15that I can only dream about the future.
01:11:19In the past I had illusions,
01:11:21I had dreams,
01:11:23and now I have nothing.
01:11:25Is there a religion
01:11:27that allows you to believe in something
01:11:29that you don't believe in?
01:11:31Will you go to Poland with me?
01:11:33We'll go together, I invite you.
01:11:35You know everything about me, right?
01:11:37Yes.
01:11:39I know what your love did to you.
01:11:41He stole, you killed.
01:11:43My father says,
01:11:45God is far away, evil is close.
01:11:47Maybe we, people,
01:11:49should be closer to the looser and the thief
01:11:51than to God, don't you think?
01:11:53I think
01:11:55that even the worst card
01:11:57can still be turned around.
01:11:59What are you talking about, Mr. Count?
01:12:01Because you don't hold
01:12:03the worst card in your hand.
01:12:05You only have aces, Mr. Count.
01:12:07You don't want to make use of them,
01:12:09you don't know that much about me.
01:12:11But I swore
01:12:13that I would never hurt you.
01:12:15Don't you really see
01:12:17in me anything shameful, disgusting?
01:12:19Maybe if you saw it,
01:12:21you would heal me from this sick love.
01:12:23But it's not that simple.
01:12:25Because in you is everything that is mine,
01:12:26all my passions,
01:12:28dark, clear thoughts.
01:12:30I have a lot of resentment
01:12:32for myself.
01:12:34At the same time,
01:12:36I even love your love for Łukasz.
01:12:38Mr. Count, stop it.
01:12:40But you still love him, don't you?
01:12:42Yes.
01:12:44You would give him up
01:12:46as soon as he appeared here, right?
01:12:48I can't cut my soul
01:12:50like some men can
01:12:52and cut something
01:12:53that I've wanted for years.
01:12:55I can't.
01:12:57So you still love him?
01:12:59Yes.
01:13:01I can give up to the best man on the street,
01:13:03but not to you.
01:13:05Why?
01:13:07Because it's your fault.
01:13:09You shot him.
01:13:11I left everything for this.
01:13:13I left my whole life to save him.
01:13:15It's your fault.
01:13:17You want to take revenge on me
01:13:19because you can't punish him, right?
01:13:21Fine.
01:13:23But you can't take revenge
01:13:25on any other woman.
01:13:29I swear.
01:13:31And that all your thoughts
01:13:33and all your passions
01:13:35will belong to me.
01:13:37I swear.
01:13:39In that case, I swear to you
01:13:41that I will always be
01:13:43your sister-in-law.
01:13:45What a disgrace.
01:13:47No, what you just swore to me
01:13:49is unimportant.
01:13:51You are free.
01:13:53You don't need me.
01:13:55But it's not true.
01:13:57It's true!
01:13:59I have the feeling
01:14:01that something is following me.
01:14:03That someone is following me.
01:14:05Or someone is following me.
01:14:07I don't know what it is.
01:14:09Maybe it's me?
01:14:11I don't know.
01:14:13It's not you.
01:14:16Could I...
01:14:18Could I kiss you
01:14:20once?
01:14:21Just once?
01:14:23I'm leaving tomorrow.
01:14:25Nothing happened here.
01:14:27I have the feeling
01:14:29that everything happened.
01:14:31I'll buy a horse in another city.
01:14:33And it's better
01:14:35to buy a horse in Vienna.
01:14:37Yes.
01:14:39That's a good idea.
01:14:41I'll buy a horse in Vienna.
01:14:51I'll buy a horse in Vienna.
01:15:09You haven't been here before, have you?
01:15:13It's strange,
01:15:15because I ordered a single bed.
01:15:18I'll have to call the conductor.
01:15:21Where's the money?
01:15:23Here.
01:15:24How much?
01:15:2520,000.
01:15:26For what?
01:15:27For Frank.
01:15:28Give me everything.
01:15:38Get undressed now.
01:15:41I beg you.
01:15:43Will you do it voluntarily or do I have the power?
01:15:46If you touch me, I'll scream.
01:15:48You'll try to pee,
01:15:49but I won't let you.
01:15:51I've been looking at you for a long time,
01:15:53but patiently.
01:15:55Now we'll love each other.
01:15:57You won't pee on me.
01:15:59I'm your master.
01:16:01And you're my servant.
01:16:03And wherever we go,
01:16:05you'll say I'm your husband and master.
01:16:07Got it?
01:16:09Now your master will undress you.
01:16:12Your master will undress you,
01:16:14and you'll be naked.
01:16:16I'll make it.
01:16:17You'll make it.
01:16:19Your master says you'll make it.
01:16:48Ah!
01:16:51Ah!
01:16:53Ah!
01:16:55Ah!
01:16:57Ah!
01:16:59Ah!
01:17:18Ah!
01:17:20Ah!
01:17:30Who are you?
01:17:34Why do you want to know?
01:17:37I'm your master and you're my servant.
01:17:39The rest is none of your business.
01:17:41I've been all over the world.
01:17:43From America to Vladivostok.
01:17:45Nothing will surprise me.
01:17:47I followed the war.
01:17:49Where there's a war,
01:17:51you can always make money.
01:17:53Besides, I play cards, roulette,
01:17:55I travel from Paris to London,
01:17:57like your Count Szczerbic.
01:17:59I'm just like him, a great man.
01:18:01Do you know Szczerbic?
01:18:03Yes.
01:18:05I know everyone I need.
01:18:08Tell me your name, at least.
01:18:12Guess.
01:18:14If you guess, I won't deny it.
01:18:15You must have
01:18:17a waiter's
01:18:19or a carpenter's name.
01:18:21Probably Vitek,
01:18:23Valek,
01:18:25or Wojtek.
01:18:27Or Łukasz.
01:18:29My name is Łukasz.
01:18:36You know everything about me?
01:18:38No, even you don't know everything about yourself.
01:18:40I know enough.
01:18:42Tell me, where's your Kruszynek?
01:18:43Kruszynek?
01:18:45What did your beloved Łukasz leave you?
01:18:47At my mother's in the mountains.
01:18:50Maybe at your mother's in Szambu.
01:18:52Don't be afraid.
01:18:55You're just like me,
01:18:57a wanderer.
01:18:59You'd like to travel,
01:19:01but you can't play yet.
01:19:04What do you mean?
01:19:06You'll see in time,
01:19:08what I've seen in my life.
01:19:10Boots without shoes,
01:19:11nipples on the top,
01:19:13tits like targans.
01:19:15People only kill themselves,
01:19:17eat with their nipples.
01:19:19And in today's world,
01:19:21a man can't live without a knife,
01:19:23so it's good you did it.
01:19:25You'd just waste your life.
01:19:28But if you try to escape me,
01:19:30I'll be the first to forgive your sins.
01:19:32But I'm a coward, aren't I?
01:19:34On the one hand, I scare,
01:19:36and on the other hand, I sin.
01:19:38But such vicars as religion,
01:19:39look, I don't do anything,
01:19:41but I still have money.
01:19:43You'll end up with four walls sooner or later.
01:19:45I don't care about four walls.
01:19:48Four walls are four walls.
01:19:51It will be what it will be.
01:19:53And you'll be in even narrower four walls.
01:19:56And what?
01:19:58Aren't you afraid?
01:20:00You're afraid.
01:20:02You're afraid.
01:20:04And I'm not afraid,
01:20:06because I've been there and I know what's there.
01:20:07Look here.
01:20:09Zesłany, Siberia.
01:20:12I've had enough of all this human mess,
01:20:14all this human filth.
01:20:16And I've come out even stronger.
01:20:19Your Count Czerwiec, what's his name,
01:20:21does he have any money?
01:20:23I don't know.
01:20:25You know, but you don't want to talk.
01:20:27He plays cards, right?
01:20:29He plays roulette.
01:20:31Roulette, it's for cross-eyed mobsters.
01:20:33It's good in French, right?
01:20:35Yes.
01:20:37In every language there's something beautiful,
01:20:39but interests require details.
01:20:41And from that you'll be my wife,
01:20:44to help me in my interests.
01:20:47We'll go to Vienna,
01:20:49we'll master our passports
01:20:51and we'll go to conquer the world.
01:20:53And what if they catch us?
01:21:00Don't be afraid.
01:21:02No one will catch me.
01:21:04I came out of the cathedral like a thunderbolt.
01:21:08I know where I've met you.
01:21:11In Ulawa, I met you with a friend.
01:21:14And what?
01:21:16You've been watching me since then.
01:21:18You've been watching Czerwiec, right?
01:21:24Why should I tell you?
01:21:26What?
01:21:28Are you mad at me?
01:21:30Honestly?
01:21:32Not the worst.
01:21:34Did you feel relief?
01:21:35You've met someone worse than you, right?
01:21:37I felt it.
01:21:39I knew it.
01:21:41You'll rest with me.
01:21:43I'm telling you, little one,
01:21:45if you live well with me, it's good,
01:21:47but I need to listen.
01:21:49And remember,
01:21:51I gave you one sin.
01:21:53Where will you find another one like that?
01:21:56Probably in heaven.
01:21:58That's right.
01:22:01Orchestra!
01:22:05Orchestra!
01:22:28You'll see, I'll teach you how to have fun.
01:22:31I'll show you all the best,
01:22:32the most expensive dresses,
01:22:34diamonds,
01:22:36not diamonds,
01:22:38the biggest balls,
01:22:40restaurants,
01:22:42you just have to listen to me.
01:22:44Waiter, come here!
01:22:46Humara, langouste and caviar on one plate.
01:22:49And the most expensive champagne.
01:22:51And paella with rice bread,
01:22:53because I like it.
01:22:55We'd like to order humara, langouste and caviar,
01:22:57all on one plate,
01:22:59with champagne and black bread on top.
01:23:01Would you like a toast?
01:23:03Yes.
01:23:05And how do you like your new life, pigeon?
01:23:07I like it.
01:23:09You'll like it even more.
01:23:11God,
01:23:13you have such a pretty face.
01:23:15You have such a pretty face.
01:23:19And he's mine.
01:23:21Mine.
01:23:23He's mine.
01:23:31Wait a minute.
01:23:33A friend of mine will join us.
01:23:36We're doing business together.
01:23:39Mrs. Pobratynska voluntarily gave me
01:23:42the letters of Count Szczerbica.
01:23:45I have to say they're personal,
01:23:47but they give a good idea
01:23:49of the style of our Bawidanka.
01:23:51And that's good,
01:23:53because we'll be doing business together.
01:23:55And who will recognize you?
01:23:57You, treasure.
01:23:58You, treasure.
01:24:00I don't intend to.
01:24:02Oh,
01:24:04and where does this determination come from?
01:24:06Where does this determination come from?
01:24:09Maybe it comes from the fact
01:24:11that you drowned your own child in the swamp?
01:24:13You have no proof.
01:24:15We have no proof.
01:24:17And have you heard about Żydek?
01:24:19We've been talking for a long time
01:24:21with comrade Żydek.
01:24:23And as for Count Szczerbica,
01:24:25I'll write a letter to you
01:24:26asking him to come to Vienna
01:24:29and take all his money with him.
01:24:32Everything's in cash.
01:24:34Tell him
01:24:36that you'll go to America together,
01:24:38to Klondike,
01:24:40for even more money,
01:24:42that he has a friend there.
01:24:44You just need to put in a lot of effort.
01:24:46Well,
01:24:48and you need to tell him
01:24:50about love, about attachment.
01:24:52Because without that, Bawidanek won't come.
01:24:53And how do you know that he loved me?
01:24:55Maybe he just wanted to sleep with me.
01:24:57It doesn't matter.
01:24:59In any case, he should think
01:25:01that he'll get what he wants.
01:25:03Then he'll come.
01:25:05But don't worry,
01:25:07you'll get a syringe
01:25:09with a disinfectant
01:25:11from us
01:25:13and when you already
01:25:15feel better,
01:25:17you'll inject a disinfectant
01:25:19into Count Szczerbica's body.
01:25:21Then we'll go in
01:25:23and we'll take the rest.
01:25:25Just let him take the money
01:25:27because otherwise
01:25:29there's nothing to worry about.
01:25:31Why a disinfectant?
01:25:33Well, we're doing business together.
01:25:35It's just normal banditry.
01:25:37Why the enthusiasm, my dear?
01:25:39Why the enthusiasm?
01:25:41The lady is ready to write.
01:25:43I won't write anything.
01:25:45You won't write?
01:25:47I'll write!
01:25:54And I got sweaty.
01:25:56What for?
01:25:58What for?
01:26:00Couldn't you have agreed right away?
01:26:02The lady is ready to write.
01:26:04I'll be giving out the letters.
01:26:06It'll go like this.
01:26:10My dear,
01:26:12shout it out.
01:26:14I'm in Vienna, period.
01:26:16With joy and enthusiasm
01:26:18I thought about seeing Vienna
01:26:20without realizing why.
01:26:22Period.
01:26:24Since I've been here
01:26:26I know well what it means.
01:26:28Period.
01:26:30Everything here is you,
01:26:32a dream about you.
01:26:34Period.
01:26:36Did you come up with that?
01:26:38I have a friend who's a stylist.
01:26:40Anyway, write it yourself, word for word.
01:26:42We'll check it later.
01:26:44Post scriptum.
01:26:46I think that if you sold
01:26:48everything you own,
01:26:49we could escape from here forever,
01:26:51cost another life,
01:26:53live for ourselves somewhere in America,
01:26:55just for ourselves.
01:26:57Take everything you own
01:26:59and come, come, come.
01:27:01I'm waiting for your Eva.
01:27:04Tell me, were you faithful to me?
01:27:06I was.
01:27:08All the time?
01:27:10Yes.
01:27:12Will you go with me to America?
01:27:14Wherever you want.
01:27:17So you have money?
01:27:19Yes.
01:27:25I have.
01:27:27In cash?
01:27:29Yes.
01:27:31Did you sell everything?
01:27:33Eva, you've never been like this.
01:27:35Like what?
01:27:37We've never talked about money like this.
01:27:39You see, a lot has changed.
01:27:41I have a fiancé.
01:27:43Did you write?
01:27:45No, no, no.
01:27:46But every time something happens,
01:27:48I think only about you.
01:27:50Why didn't you say it right away?
01:27:52Because it was the last thing that came to my mind,
01:27:54the last rescue board.
01:27:56He wants to take me to America, you know?
01:27:59There may be a lot of gold in it,
01:28:01but we need your money,
01:28:03and I have his address.
01:28:05We can make contact.
01:28:07Then you thought about me right away.
01:28:09Right away, right away, about you.
01:28:11And do you still love Łukasz?
01:28:13No, no, I understood that it was only about you.
01:28:14God.
01:28:16You're so mean, so evil.
01:28:18You're not.
01:28:20Although, no, I don't know you.
01:28:22No, you don't know me.
01:28:24No, no, I know, I know.
01:28:26Otherwise, I wouldn't fall in love with you.
01:28:28Eva, tell me, what are we going to do now?
01:28:30Now we're going to fall in love.
01:28:44No.
01:29:02Curara, the best remedy.
01:29:04Paralyzes the brain,
01:29:06the scream is impossible,
01:29:08the nervous system is wrong,
01:29:10the paralyzed movements are also impossible.
01:29:12And most importantly,
01:29:14it leaves no trace.
01:29:33Get a hold of yourself.
01:29:36I can't stand it here.
01:29:38Where are you going, little dove?
01:29:40In the dark night?
01:29:42Without a companion?
01:29:44Nowhere.
01:29:46Do you want to play with us?
01:29:48You have nothing to lose.
01:29:50Who pays?
01:29:52Do you need the money?
01:29:54Yes, I need it.
01:29:56You must have some dreams.
01:29:58Do you want to buy something?
01:30:00I don't have money for a ticket.
01:30:02And I want to leave here.
01:30:04And where do you want to go?
01:30:05I want to go to Poland, to Krakow.
01:30:07I have someone there.
01:30:09A lover?
01:30:11A friend.
01:30:13I don't have a lover anymore.
01:30:15The more you want to play with us,
01:30:17you have nothing to lose.
01:30:19And for the ticket you get?
01:30:21For the hotel?
01:30:23You will have at least four nights in the hotel.
01:30:25Every night one of us will be dedicated.
01:30:27Because we are four, we are the four riders.
01:30:29I don't know if I should ...
01:30:31Gentlemen,
01:30:33we empty our bags,
01:30:35now it's your turn.
01:30:37Is the money for me?
01:30:39Yes,
01:30:41yes,
01:30:43for you.
01:30:45But you don't deserve it yet.
01:31:05I want to go to Poland.
01:31:36In Krakow, Ewa did not find Jasniach.
01:31:39He died a few months earlier.
01:31:41Being there alone, she became a public woman.
01:31:44At first she lived in a hotel.
01:31:46Then, having collected some money,
01:31:48she rented a separate apartment.
01:31:50As her evil friends used to say,
01:31:52a charming studio.
01:31:54She had crazy luck.
01:31:56She could dress elegantly,
01:31:58eat luxuriously, even party.
01:32:00She went to guest performances in Lviv.
01:32:02Krakow took her away.
01:32:04But the summer season of passers-by began.
01:32:07She met a friend from Warsaw a few times on the street.
01:32:10She became more afraid of the pursuit of a bodyguard,
01:32:12who could easily look for her in Krakow.
01:32:14She was afraid to meet Horst.
01:32:17She decided to go to the kingdom,
01:32:19not to Warsaw, but somewhere in the province.
01:32:21With ease, through a relationship,
01:32:23she made a passport in the name of Anna Winter.
01:32:26And with a suitcase, as big as a dresser,
01:32:28she left,
01:32:30missed, hit,
01:32:31to some city,
01:32:34Kielce.
01:32:36And here she turned the whole world upside down.
01:32:39All the hiding places, gubernias, palaces, palaces,
01:32:41courts of all kinds, all kinds,
01:32:43bourgeoisie,
01:32:45civil state, military state.
01:32:47In a word, a male-female city.
01:32:49She ruined herself on it to the end.
01:32:52Debts were drawn,
01:32:54the spirit of the Jews was sold
01:32:56just to sit down
01:32:58the appropriate currency to get the grace of Winter.
01:32:59A charming,
01:33:01catholic city,
01:33:04with grotesque teeth,
01:33:06at the sight of a beautiful,
01:33:08as if more and more beautiful,
01:33:10unruly woman,
01:33:12walking in the most exuberant robes
01:33:14in the city garden
01:33:16and in a seductive way
01:33:18walking under a shawl.
01:33:20She was always followed by a swarm of passers-by
01:33:22with the mention of the most charming girls
01:33:24from the most beautiful families in Kielce.
01:33:26It came to the point
01:33:27that there were knights,
01:33:29doctors,
01:33:31well-known far-away Kielce mercenaries,
01:33:34dear citizens,
01:33:36and also,
01:33:38for pity's sake,
01:33:40let it stay between us,
01:33:42the priests of the canon,
01:33:44and also the provosts.
01:33:47The hot August day was to the west.
01:33:49People were walking like sleepy flies
01:33:51on the scorched stones of the ash.
01:33:53Ewa, in the clothes of the vagrants,
01:33:55in a gas blouse,
01:33:57and, to put it bluntly,
01:33:59she fell apart on a separated bench
01:34:01in the city park.
01:34:03Suddenly, a man appeared
01:34:05on an empty alley.
01:34:07He was tall,
01:34:09grey-haired,
01:34:11with a short, trimmed beard.
01:34:14What is your name, parrot?
01:34:16Anna Winter.
01:34:18Is it real or just a disguise?
01:34:20A disguise.
01:34:22And is it real?
01:34:24How should I know?
01:34:25You look like a delusional monster.
01:34:27Maybe this monster
01:34:29doesn't want to talk to you.
01:34:31How much do you usually take?
01:34:3425 rubles.
01:34:36We'll talk for 25 rubles.
01:34:38Shouldn't it make a difference
01:34:40what you do when you get paid for it?
01:34:42Maybe I don't want to talk to you
01:34:44or know you.
01:34:46Then undress, I paid.
01:34:49Do you see how difficult it is
01:34:51when someone sees a man in you?
01:34:53Will you tell me your real name now?
01:34:55Ewa, but I won't tell you my name.
01:34:57Maybe it's better.
01:34:59There's no need to say your father's name.
01:35:01You have beautiful eyes,
01:35:03beautiful cheeks, beautiful hair.
01:35:05You have everything beautiful.
01:35:07How long have you been doing this job?
01:35:09Long enough.
01:35:11Would you rather be an office worker?
01:35:13This job suits you better.
01:35:15I didn't ask anyone for a job.
01:35:17But I'm offering you a job.
01:35:19You'll get a flat, a permanent pension.
01:35:20I have a big farm in my village.
01:35:26You want to change me.
01:35:28You want to take me for your maintenance.
01:35:30What's the difference between what I do now?
01:35:32I don't want to sleep with you.
01:35:34I go to bed with the women I love.
01:35:36I don't want to use you.
01:35:38I want to help you.
01:35:40I want to give you a chance to change your life.
01:35:42If you like it, you'll move on.
01:35:44If you don't like it,
01:35:46you'll go back to Kielce
01:35:48and do what you do best.
01:35:50You'll go back to Kielce
01:35:52and think,
01:35:54I took great beauty out of the mud.
01:35:56If you knew everything about me,
01:35:58you wouldn't judge me.
01:36:00I don't judge you.
01:36:02God knows everything.
01:36:04Does he even exist?
01:36:06I'm talking about him.
01:36:08Does he even exist?
01:36:10No one knows.
01:36:12I don't know either.
01:36:14Some people carry him in their hearts
01:36:16and say he exists.
01:36:18If you don't feel it,
01:36:21come to the Polish hotel tomorrow
01:36:23and ask for Bodzanta.
01:36:25Sell your fatalities
01:36:27and you'll get something decent from me.
01:36:50Change your fate.
01:36:53Give us strength,
01:36:55give us power.
01:36:57Change, change your fate.
01:36:59Ma'am, it's Nova.
01:37:01Nova?
01:37:03From Warsaw.
01:37:05No, not anymore.
01:37:07I'm Jadwiga.
01:37:09I won't tell you my name,
01:37:11there's no need to mention my father's.
01:37:13What do you think,
01:37:15would we have the right to live like this?
01:37:17I think we would.
01:37:18If someone knew my life,
01:37:20he wouldn't be surprised.
01:37:22You're surprised.
01:37:24No, I haven't been surprised for a long time.
01:37:26A life like everyone else's, right?
01:37:28I don't know, I only know mine.
01:37:30Me too, but I've seen more than one in my life.
01:37:32Besides, who would lose out
01:37:34on me sleeping with Tyloma?
01:37:36My body is mine
01:37:39and I can do whatever I want with it.
01:37:42Because ignorance is the worst.
01:37:45When a person doesn't know anything,
01:37:46he regrets not doing this,
01:37:48not doing that.
01:37:50Only the poor regret.
01:37:52Don't you think so, ma'am?
01:37:54I don't know, maybe.
01:37:56We confess publicly here,
01:37:58although there's really nothing to confess about.
01:38:00Doctors work here,
01:38:02all of them for free.
01:38:04They help people as much as they can.
01:38:06They get them out of drugs, diseases.
01:38:08Everyone is helped here,
01:38:10but you have to work
01:38:12because without work, people are ruined.
01:38:14Beautiful people come out of here,
01:38:16but a lot of people run away from here.
01:38:18You can leave here at any moment.
01:38:21And sometimes girls leave.
01:38:23Sometimes,
01:38:25many gentlemen come here.
01:38:29Friends, admirers.
01:38:32Who would fall in love with someone like that?
01:38:34Many of them went straight to the altar.
01:38:37And I don't know,
01:38:39for me it doesn't matter
01:38:41if it's one or a hundred.
01:38:43A woman
01:38:44is always the worst.
01:38:48And a family
01:38:50is the worst.
01:38:53And you,
01:38:55did you have children?
01:38:57No, I didn't.
01:38:59And I didn't want to.
01:39:02And you?
01:39:04Neither.
01:39:06Did you want to?
01:39:10No.
01:39:12I don't think so.
01:39:14I don't think so.
01:39:20You'll be fine here.
01:39:31Wouldn't you feel sorry
01:39:33to give such a beautiful property to people?
01:39:36If you give up your property,
01:39:38the whole world will belong to you.
01:39:42And I have nothing.
01:39:44I don't feel happy.
01:39:46I used to believe in good,
01:39:48in God,
01:39:50in people,
01:39:52in the Church.
01:39:54And I killed my own child.
01:39:56And no one ever helped me without my own interest.
01:39:59Did you know Zygmunt Szczerbica?
01:40:01I knew his father.
01:40:03I know who you're talking about.
01:40:05He died in Vienna.
01:40:07I killed him with my own hands.
01:40:09Don't think about condemnation.
01:40:11Think that you always have a choice.
01:40:12What choice can there be?
01:40:14I don't know. It depends on you.
01:40:16I'd like to believe it, but...
01:40:18Ewa, you're so beautiful.
01:40:20Stay my lover.
01:40:22No one will ever find out. I promise.
01:40:24And you said...
01:40:26I fell in love with you.
01:40:28I don't care if someone finds out.
01:40:30But it will be better.
01:40:32It's better for those women
01:40:34that no one knows us.
01:40:42Give us strength, give us power,
01:40:44Give us light, give us night.
01:40:46Give us strength, give us power,
01:40:48Give us light, give us night.
01:40:50A frog came right over the water,
01:40:52Where the ducks are sitting.
01:40:54I knew sooner or later
01:40:56one of you would find me.
01:40:58All the whores in one place
01:41:00and this is called help for the poor.
01:41:02I'm not a whore.
01:41:04I'm a whore.
01:41:06I'm a whore.
01:41:08I'm a whore.
01:41:10I'm a whore.
01:41:12I'm a whore.
01:41:14I know this Bossa.
01:41:16We went to America
01:41:18to get interested in love.
01:41:20He thinks the same as we do.
01:41:22He thinks he can change anything.
01:41:24Biggest problem is that
01:41:26he'll change himself.
01:41:28It is not easy to change a man.
01:41:30I've changed.
01:41:32What, how long?
01:41:34Weeks, 2? 3?
01:41:36I don't know.
01:41:37I don't know that.
01:41:38You see, you don't see, you see, you don't know.
01:41:40No, I'm not going to philosophize, it's not for me.
01:41:44I'm here on behalf of Mr. Łukasz Niepołomski.
01:41:50I have a letter from him.
01:41:52Did he give it to you himself?
01:41:54Himself.
01:41:57Will you come with me?
01:41:58Where to?
01:41:59To Niepołomski.
01:42:01Do you know where he is?
01:42:02How should I not know? He's my best friend.
01:42:05We do business together, he's a very rich man.
01:42:09He doesn't want to see me, really.
01:42:11Well, if he writes that he wants to, he probably wants to.
01:42:15How do you know what he writes?
01:42:17He told me.
01:42:19No one invited you here.
01:42:21Every man is free.
01:42:23And no one and nothing will change that.
01:42:25Even you.
01:42:27Ewa, don't listen to this man, please.
01:42:29You always have a choice, remember that.
01:42:31I'm free.
01:42:32I've always been free.
01:42:34But this is not the way.
01:42:36So what?
01:42:38Old fool.
01:42:40I've had enough of your bullshit.
01:42:45If you cost your life,
01:42:47no one and nothing will change that.
01:42:57So you are a dove in my humble threshold.
01:43:03You see, I got a little sick.
01:43:05I coughed a little, I did a little under myself.
01:43:09But I'm alive.
01:43:11It's not so easy to finish me off.
01:43:13Under another name, but I'm alive.
01:43:15And what's your name now?
01:43:17Stanisław Kozielski, respected.
01:43:21And I heard that you turned your own interest.
01:43:24Okay, okay, I'm not saying it's bad.
01:43:27I'm just wondering why she does it herself.
01:43:30She could do the same under my wings,
01:43:33but a hundred times better.
01:43:35And she would still have protection.
01:43:37Where did you get this letter from?
01:43:39It's his letter, I recognized it right away.
01:43:40What do you mean? We're talking about interests.
01:43:43I already know your interests.
01:43:45And what's wrong?
01:43:47Where will you earn so much?
01:43:49And you heard that your mommy is dead?
01:43:53Your daddy died?
01:43:55No.
01:43:56And we had to keep our hands on the pulse.
01:43:59I thought you'd at least come to the funeral,
01:44:01but I see that your family has completely turned away from you.
01:44:05There was only one philosopher there.
01:44:07Horst.
01:44:08Oh, he believed me with beer,
01:44:10how much he loved you,
01:44:12how inaccessible you were to him.
01:44:15And I tell him, ma'am, she was already letting go then.
01:44:18With the whole hoof.
01:44:20He wanted to hit me in the face.
01:44:23Who would have thought that she was so tender since birth?
01:44:28If you're nice, maybe we'll do it with your beloved interest.
01:44:33Where am I supposed to go?
01:44:35We'll go to 305 Marszałkowska Street,
01:44:38to the house where they recently finished it,
01:44:41there are such nice offices there,
01:44:43freshly painted.
01:44:45And you'll go first, we'll follow you,
01:44:47so that we can't be seen,
01:44:49but we won't take our eyes off you.
01:44:51The point is that when they let in a kind lady,
01:44:53let the kind lady stand at the door for as long as possible,
01:44:56so that they don't close the door in front of us.
01:44:58Then we'll come in,
01:45:00we'll kill the interest and we'll go.
01:45:03But nothing will happen to Łukasz.
01:45:05Well, that depends on him.
01:45:07We can't hold hands with a man.
01:45:09We don't know if he'll be gentle or gentle.
01:45:11I don't know, I'm not going anywhere with you.
01:45:13And why are you so stupid all your life?
01:45:16If you don't go, I'll shoot you,
01:45:18but not from the hand, but from this.
01:45:23Here you are.
01:45:25My life is worth nothing.
01:45:29And his?
01:45:31Do you think we can't go there alone?
01:45:34Only then will the boy die on the concrete wall.
01:45:36And so you can save him.
01:45:38You can save him.
01:45:40There's only one thing we don't like then,
01:45:42you and him kaput.
01:45:44So you want...
01:45:46Yes, that's what we want.
01:45:47And do you know why?
01:45:49Because we have you in a handful, little dove.
01:45:53How good it is that you didn't lose it at birth.
01:45:56Well, Mother Nature keeps her cool.
01:45:59It's good, it'll come in handy.
01:46:01Where should I go?
01:46:03First straight, then left.
01:46:07You'll go straight, straight.
01:46:11And you'll turn left.
01:46:13You'll get to the gate, there'll be a horn.
01:46:17You'll press the button and you'll introduce yourself nicely.
01:46:21You'll say that you came to Mr. Łukasz Niepołomski.
01:46:25The door will open, you'll enter the stairs happily.
01:46:30I guess he'll come out happy himself to meet you.
01:46:35You'll pamper him a little on the stairs so that we can get inside.
01:46:41And then...
01:46:42Łukasz, run away, I'll kill you.
01:47:21Thank you.
