Aurora
3
00:00:57,250 --> 00:01:00,480
Ooh! Wow!
4
00:01:03,130 --> 00:01:05,460
What's that written on your hat?
5
00:01:05,540 --> 00:01:06,970
Hat?!
6
00:01:07,260 --> 00:01:08,790
You must be kidding!
7
00:01:08,810 --> 00:01:10,350
This isn't a hat,
8
00:01:10,390 --> 00:01:12,180
it's a sailor's cap.
9
00:01:12,260 --> 00:01:13,870
- Sailor's cap?
- Yeah
10
00:01:15,070 --> 00:01:17,030
It says:
11
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,640
Aurora.
12
00:01:19,690 --> 00:01:22,010
- Got it?
- Got it.
13
00:01:22,820 --> 00:01:24,800
- And these are streamers.
- Streamers...
14
00:01:24,860 --> 00:01:28,820
Yeah. When there's a storm at sea,
sailors tie them together.
15
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,080
- Tie them together?
- Look.
16
00:01:32,690 --> 00:01:34,780
Here. Like this.
17
00:01:34,780 --> 00:01:35,740
Got it?
18
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:37,040
Got it.
19
00:01:38,110 --> 00:01:41,440
...and you're only 20.
20
00:01:42,100 --> 00:01:46,180
Sailor, love me with all your soul...
21
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,650
What will you answer me?
22
00:01:49,670 --> 00:01:51,680
On the seas, on the waves.
23
00:01:51,750 --> 00:01:53,720
Here today, there tomorrow.
24
00:01:53,830 --> 00:01:56,650
On the seas, the seas, the seas, the...
25
00:01:56,910 --> 00:01:58,850
What are you writing?
26
00:01:58,940 --> 00:02:01,670
"Hero". What about it?
27
00:02:01,770 --> 00:02:04,760
There was no such cruiser! That's what.
28
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,630
If there wasn't, now there will be.
29
00:02:08,570 --> 00:02:10,340
- Give me the chalk!
- No!
30
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,260
Give me the chalk, I say!
31
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,490
I will write: "Aurora".
32
00:02:14,550 --> 00:02:16,870
There IS such a cruiser.
33
00:02:16,940 --> 00:02:19,690
It was she who signalled
the attack on the Winter Palace.
34
00:02:19,750 --> 00:02:21,570
From her forecastle gun.
35
00:02:21,640 --> 00:02:23,780
- Now give me the chalk!
- No, I won't!
36
00:02:24,220 --> 00:02:26,190
Tell us about the cruiser.
37
00:02:26,250 --> 00:02:27,840
Tell us everything about it.
38
00:02:27,900 --> 00:02:31,050
He... She...
39
00:02:31,750 --> 00:02:34,100
I don't know anything more.
40
00:02:34,260 --> 00:02:36,630
- You don't know?!
- I don't.
41
00:02:36,710 --> 00:02:38,970
And you were going to write her name...
42
00:02:39,070 --> 00:02:40,820
All aboard!
43
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:58,990
On the seas, on the waves.
44
00:02:59,140 --> 00:03:01,150
Here today, there tomorrow.
45
00:03:01,210 --> 00:03:04,820
On the seas, the seas, the seas, the seas.
46
00:03:04,900 --> 00:03:08,230
Hey, listen, are there songs
about the Aurora?
47
00:03:08,310 --> 00:03:10,400
Songs?
48
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,830
I don't know.
49
00:03:17,580 --> 00:03:21,120
Com - po - ser.
50
00:03:42,110 --> 00:03:45,180
- Hello.
- Hello-o-o.
51
00:03:47,270 --> 00:03:49,390
Please tell...
52
00:04:02,260 --> 00:04:04,180
Please tell me...
53
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,160
are there songs about the Aurora?
54
00:04:07,330 --> 00:04:10,320
- The cruiser Aurora?
- Yes.
55
00:04:12,070 --> 00:04:14,400
You know, little one,
56
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,030
there is no song about the Aurora.
57
00:04:17,410 --> 00:04:21,200
But do you know anything
about the cruiser Aurora?
58
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,850
Sure. Of course I do.
59
00:04:23,890 --> 00:04:28,000
She signalled the start
of the assault on the Winter Palace.
60
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:29,970
Didn't you know that?
61
00:04:30,090 --> 00:04:32,100
I did know that.
62
00:04:32,140 --> 00:04:35,990
But... what else do you know about it?
63
00:04:36,050 --> 00:04:38,540
What else?
64
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,220
Nothing.
65
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,320
Really.
I know nothing else, little one.
66
00:04:50,060 --> 00:04:53,330
You see, I need to know everything
about the Aurora.
67
00:04:53,410 --> 00:04:57,300
And also... I really
need a song about her.
68
00:04:57,380 --> 00:04:59,450
I see, my friend.
69
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,620
Oh! I remember. I remember!
70
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:07,740
There's a museum on the cruiser.
71
00:05:16,150 --> 00:05:17,930
The museum is not yet open.
72
00:05:17,970 --> 00:05:21,400
But we really need to go there.
73
00:05:21,550 --> 00:05:26,070
Wait, wait... "Aurora."
74
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,390
Well, that's quite another matter.
75
00:05:28,450 --> 00:05:29,750
You may pass, sailor!
76
00:05:29,790 --> 00:05:31,220
You, comrade, wait here.
77
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:33,350
- He's with me.
- I'm with him.
78
00:05:33,410 --> 00:05:36,010
- Together, then? - Yes.
- I see.
79
00:05:36,070 --> 00:05:38,900
You may also pass. Together.
80
00:07:03,630 --> 00:07:05,560
Armed revolt in Petrograd,
24-25 October, 1917.
82
00:07:08,770 --> 00:07:12,820
To cruiser Aurora, from the
Central Executive Committee of the USSR.
83
00:07:22,410 --> 00:07:27,410
More than 100 years ago,
during the Crimean War,
84
00:07:27,580 --> 00:07:31,890
the sailing frigate Aurora
fought gloriously in battle.
85
00:07:35,940 --> 00:07:40,200
In 1903, a powerful cruiser was built.
86
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:48,020
In the memory of an old heroic frigate,
it was named Aurora.
87
00:07:49,590 --> 00:07:54,000
In 1905, during the Russo-Japanese war
88
00:07:54,340 --> 00:07:58,120
Aurora took part in the Battle of Tsushima.
89
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,330
The battle was hard for the
Russian squadron.
90
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,590
The Aurora heroically defended
91
00:08:07,810 --> 00:08:13,220
and together with the cruisers "Oleg"
and "Zhemchug" was able to escape the pursuit.
92
00:08:15,010 --> 00:08:18,060
But one of the enemy shells
pierced its armor,
93
00:08:19,130 --> 00:08:23,920
and killed the cruiser's commander,
Captain 1st rank Yegoryev.
94
00:08:25,830 --> 00:08:29,800
From that piece of armor
and burnt deck planks
95
00:08:30,130 --> 00:08:35,110
sailors made a frame for the portrait
of their beloved commander.
96
00:08:38,190 --> 00:08:43,050
In 1914, the First World War began.
97
00:08:43,530 --> 00:08:46,350
The Aurora also took part in it.
98
00:08:47,220 --> 00:08:53,600
Defending Petrograd, she reliably guarded
the approaches to the Gulf of Finland.
99
00:08:54,570 --> 00:08:58,820
The harsh years of war
did not spare the Aurora.
100
00:08:58,900 --> 00:09:01,130
Major repairs were required.
Therefore,
101
00:09:01,470 --> 00:09:08,980
In November 1916 the Aurora was sent
to one of the Petrograd shipyards.
102
00:09:10,100 --> 00:09:14,660
Many of the shipyard workers
were Bolsheviks.
103
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:19,680
And Aurora's sailors
also became Bolsheviks.
104
00:09:19,950 --> 00:09:24,910
So when in February 1917
the people dethroned the tsar,
105
00:09:25,030 --> 00:09:31,030
Aurora's sailors were the first
on the Baltic fleet who raised the red flag.
106
00:09:33,540 --> 00:09:37,910
But the reigns of power were taken
by a bourgeois temporary government.
107
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:42,620
The Bolsheviks led by Lenin
were preparing a revolt.
108
00:09:55,390 --> 00:09:59,690
On the morning of October 25,
Aurora's radio-station
109
00:10:00,170 --> 00:10:04,600
transmitted Lenin's appeal
"To the Citizens of Russia".
110
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:15,920
On the evening of October 25, Aurora's
forecastle gun fired a blank shot.
111
00:10:17,150 --> 00:10:20,970
This was the signal
to attack the Winter Palace.
112
00:10:23,630 --> 00:10:28,040
After the Revolution,
the Aurora became a training ship.
113
00:10:29,770 --> 00:10:34,530
In 1941, our homeland was attacked
by the fascists.
114
00:10:35,390 --> 00:10:39,240
Sailors removed the legendary cruiser's guns,
115
00:10:39,380 --> 00:10:44,680
and placed them on the periphery
of the besieged Leningrad.
116
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:56,370
Here on Voronya mountain, near Leningrad,
117
00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:01,650
Aurora's sailors undertook
their final battle.
118
00:11:11,110 --> 00:11:15,270
Comrade, stay and read!
119
00:11:17,910 --> 00:11:22,120
At this place, in 1941,
120
00:11:22,570 --> 00:11:27,570
stood the gun from the legendary
cruiser Aurora.
121
00:11:29,470 --> 00:11:34,140
A group of sailors led by Lt. Smagliy
122
00:11:34,470 --> 00:11:38,960
firmly fought here against
the fascist masses
123
00:11:39,170 --> 00:11:43,440
and died the death of heroes.
124
00:11:50,300 --> 00:11:52,810
Good song.
125
00:11:53,940 --> 00:11:55,380
Let's go.
126
00:11:56,340 --> 00:11:58,110
Come on, let's go!
127
00:11:59,050 --> 00:12:00,640
I'm all wound up.
128
00:12:00,740 --> 00:12:03,170
Never mind. Let's go!
129
00:12:18,100 --> 00:12:21,030
Hey... "Hero"!
130
00:12:21,150 --> 00:12:24,320
Hey, all of you! Listen to the song
about the Aurora.
131
00:12:48,090 --> 00:12:54,870
The northern town sleeps quietly.
132
00:12:55,270 --> 00:13:01,370
Low sky over your head.
133
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:08,150
What are you dreaming of, cruiser Aurora
134
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:14,310
When morning rises over the Neva?
135
00:13:29,870 --> 00:13:34,900
Maybe again, in the shaggy clouds
136
00:13:35,560 --> 00:13:40,780
You see gunfire in the distance?
137
00:13:41,740 --> 00:13:47,090
Or as before, in black jackets
138
00:13:47,780 --> 00:13:53,980
Your patrols pace sternly?
139
00:14:06,530 --> 00:14:11,950
High waves, grey storms -
140
00:14:12,810 --> 00:14:18,530
this is the destiny of all ships.
141
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:24,710
Their fates are somewhat similar,
142
00:14:25,460 --> 00:14:30,810
Somewhat similar
to the fates of people.
143
00:14:44,930 --> 00:14:50,920
Open spaces breathe in the salty wind,
144
00:14:51,650 --> 00:14:57,840
Lightning crosses the stormy gloom.
145
00:14:58,770 --> 00:15:04,980
What are you dreaming of, cruiser Aurora
146
00:15:05,890 --> 00:15:11,620
When morning raises over the Neva?
147
00:15:34,300 --> 00:15:38,440
Here, take the chalk.
148
00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:40,020
Write.
