00:003,000 Leagues in Search of Mother
00:19Mom, do you really have to go away? Mom!
00:25Yes, dear. But don't cry. I will be back soon.
00:34Once upon a time, a boy named Marco lived in a little port city in Italy.
00:40His father was ill and his mother had to work very hard to pay his medical bills and support the family.
00:47They were still very poor and in a lot of debt.
00:51Now, Marco's mother had to go to Argentina to look for work there.
00:55Don't worry about me. I will bring back money to pay our debts.
00:59Take care of your father! Mom!
01:08Look, Dad! It's a letter from Mom!
01:15Oh, let's see.
01:17Here it is!
01:21Marco, I'm doing well. I was able to find a good job through my cousin.
01:29I am working for a rich family.
01:33Marco, my baby, I think of you and miss you every day.
01:38Every day Marco waited impatiently for a new letter.
01:42The letters stopped coming, and Marco hadn't heard from his mother in months.
01:51Marco and his father were worried, so they went to talk to the people at the consulate.
01:57They couldn't find her anywhere. She had gone missing.
02:02Dad, I have to go look for her!
02:07You are too young, Marco. And Argentina is very far away.
02:14Well, you are ill, and brother has to stay because of work.
02:20Marco, it isn't safe.
02:24Please let me go. I know I'm the only one who can find her. I know it. Please.
02:32Marco managed to gain passage on a ship heading for Argentina through the help of his father's friend, a captain.
02:41Bye, Dad! Bye, brother! I will come home soon with Mom!
02:49Take care, Marco!
02:52The journey lasted for a month.
02:55Marco had nothing to look at on the ship except the endless expanse of the ocean
03:00and the dolphins that leapt beside the ship from time to time.
03:09One night.
03:12You are wasting your time, Marco. Your mother is dead!
03:20No! That's not true! She isn't dead! I will find her! I will find her! I will find her!
03:35It was only a nightmare.
03:42Every night, when everyone went to bed, Marco was tormented by frightening dreams.
03:48He refused to believe in them and swore that he would find his mother no matter what.
03:53I miss you.
04:01Oh, a land! It's Argentina!
04:05Argentina!
04:11Finally, Marco was in Argentina. Soon he would see his mother.
04:19Everything seemed strange and new, but Marco was not afraid because he knew his mother was here somewhere.
04:30Wait! Stop! That's my money! Please! I need that money to find my mom!
04:42Now Marco was alone in an unfamiliar country with no money and no friends,
04:47but he refused to give up. He was on a mission.
04:51Maybe I should ask for directions.
04:56Finally, just before sunset, Marco reached the house of his mom's employer.
05:01He had nothing to eat all day since he had lost his money, but that didn't matter now.
05:06All he wanted was to see his mother.
05:10Is anybody in? Mother! It's me, Marco!
05:18Who are you?
05:20I'm Marco. I've come to find my mother.
05:25I'm sorry, but we only moved in a few months ago.
05:29Your mother must have left with the previous owners.
05:33Then she isn't here?
05:37I'm afraid not. Well, maybe I can write a letter for you.
05:41Someone there might know where she is now.
05:48The gentleman gave him a letter and a loaf of bread for the journey, and Marco continued his search.
05:57He walked for miles.
06:01The sun was scorching hot and his feet hurt, but he couldn't stop.
06:05There was nothing he wanted more than to see his mother again.
06:11He arrived at the address written on the letter, and a butler opened the door.
06:16Your mother's employees have gone very far from here.
06:20You will need to take a train for three days and then walk for ten.
06:25Of course, it will be less if you take a coach. Two days, maybe.
06:29Now, off with you!
06:33Marco understood that he wouldn't find his mom there either.
06:38Disappointed and alone again, Marco stopped in the square to cry.
06:44What do I do now? I have no money for the train, or to get something to eat.
06:50Mom!
06:54Suddenly, a nice gentleman came up to him and said,
06:59I'm sorry, but we only moved in a few months ago.
07:04Suddenly, a nice gentleman Marco had gotten to know on the ship saw him sitting there.
07:10Oh, Marco! Marco, is that you?
07:15Yes, it is.
07:18But haven't you found your mother yet?
07:22No.
07:25The old gentleman's generosity meant Marco could take the train now.
07:38Thank you so much!
07:42As the train sped on, Marco watched the scenery rushing past
07:47and imagined his long-awaited meeting with his mother.
07:52After leaving the train, Marco got lost on his way to the village.
07:58Night fell, and he had to sleep in the forest surrounded by the howls of hungry wolves.
08:08Oh, Mom!
08:12I'm so sorry!
08:17Oh, Mom!
08:22Marco's shoes were worn out from walking, there were blisters on his feet,
08:27and legs were as heavy as lead, but he pushed on.
08:31He couldn't stop until he had found his mother.
08:35He was very tired, and his steps grew slower.
08:39Mom!
08:44Mom!
08:48Until he collapsed on the road.
08:56A passing peasant chanced to see him there.
08:59He felt sorry for Marco and gave him a drink of water.
09:02Poor child!
09:06Marco told him where he was going, and the man promised to take him there in his wagon.
09:13One more day, and we will be together at last!
09:19Marco couldn't sleep that night.
09:22He gazed at the pale full moon and thought of his mother.
09:25Mom, please be alive! You have to be alive!
09:35Meanwhile, Marco's mother had fallen very ill and couldn't get out of bed.
09:41She's fading, I'm afraid.
09:43What can we do?
09:46She has been away from her family for too long. She is homesick.
09:52Will I get better, Doctor? Please tell me.
09:58Listen, Josephine. You must be strong. Keep fighting! Don't give up!
10:06I just wish I could see my little Marco one last time.
10:13Oh, Josephine, don't say that! Don't give up! You'll be all right!
10:22Exhausted and worn out by his long journey, Marco still ran through the forest, knowing his mother was near.
10:29As he left the forest, a large mansion appeared before him.
10:33That's where my mom is! That's where she is!
10:41Mom! Please, please, let my mom be there! Let her be okay!
10:51Marco prayed and hoped with all his heart. Then the door opened.
10:56What?
11:01When Marco followed her in and saw his mother lying in bed, he burst into tears.
11:07Mom! Mom! Mom!
11:12Oh, Marco! Mom!
11:17Marco! I can't believe it's you! I missed you!
11:23How on earth did you get here? Are you here all by yourself, Marco?
11:28I missed you so much, Mom! I missed you!
11:33Oh, my darling! Oh, Marco!
11:38Oh, your face!
11:41I'm okay! Everything is okay now!
11:45Please, don't ever leave me again! Let's stay together, always, Mom!
11:51I promise, Marco!
11:53Strengthened by the love of her son, Marco's mother recovered quickly.
11:59They returned home together and lived happily ever after.

13:16Then she isn't here?
13:20I'm afraid not. Well, maybe I can write a letter for you.
13:25Someone there might know where she is now.
13:35The gentleman gave him a letter and a loaf of bread for the journey, and Marco continued his search.

16:03What do I do now? I have no money for the train, or to get something to eat.
16:10Mom!
16:15Somewhere…
16:18Wait! Stop! That's my money! Please! I need that money to find my mom!
16:32Now Marco was alone in an unfamiliar country, with no money and no friends, but he refused to give up.
