00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:09,940
present

4
00:00:11,616 --> 00:00:13,910
We live in Russia.

5
00:00:14,060 --> 00:00:17,550
The peoples of our country
are hospitable.

6
00:00:17,660 --> 00:00:22,200
Today we've been invited
to visit by the Lithuanians.

7
00:00:22,383 --> 00:00:24,964
Let's visit the Maslenitsa* Museum.
*(Pancake Day, Mardi Gras, Shrovetide)

8
00:00:25,189 --> 00:00:28,283
This nice house, furniture, utensils

9
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:33,310
and even the wooden shoes
are made by a master's skilfull hands.

10
00:00:33,310 --> 00:00:36,200
As, of course, are the
masks for Maslenitsa.

11
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:38,600
There are funny characters
from fairy tales --

12
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:43,440
The Devil and the Gendarme,
Fatty Glutton and Skinny Lenty.

13
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:48,550
And on an old wheel, in a threadbare
dress rides Mare - old lady winter.

14
00:00:48,550 --> 00:00:52,420
Watch out!
There you go - straight into the fire.

15
00:00:52,460 --> 00:00:56,510
People have always liked everything
to arrive at its proper time.

16
00:00:56,996 --> 00:01:00,850
After winter - spring,
after spring - summer.

17
00:01:01,563 --> 00:01:05,390
Now it's our turn to tell a tale.

18
00:01:05,916 --> 00:01:12,110
Lithuanians have many, and each one
is like a precious gem.

19
00:01:15,183 --> 00:01:20,403
Mountain of Gems

20
00:01:34,637 --> 00:01:39,310
When a bird sings, my soul feels lighter.

21
00:01:40,143 --> 00:01:44,843
Spring is coming to us.
We've waited long enough.

22
00:01:45,763 --> 00:01:50,463
I'll gather firewood,
chop some branches.

23
00:01:51,263 --> 00:01:55,770
It's nice in the woods.
I love spring.

24
00:02:08,243 --> 00:02:12,937
I'll light the hearth.
Put a pot into the stove.

25
00:02:13,996 --> 00:02:18,822
There'll be bread in the house.
There'll be boiling water.

26
00:02:19,696 --> 00:02:21,650
White meadows.

27
00:02:22,613 --> 00:02:24,490
White hills.

28
00:02:25,410 --> 00:02:27,570
Spring has come to us.

29
00:02:28,070 --> 00:02:30,290
We won't freeze.

30
00:02:44,503 --> 00:02:48,236
The Lumberjack's Little Acre

31
00:02:53,900 --> 00:02:59,010
What have you done, you wretch?
Have you gone completely blind?

32
00:02:59,540 --> 00:03:03,440
How could you take a man's
very last bread?

33
00:03:03,610 --> 00:03:05,420
Did we feed you poorly?

34
00:03:05,662 --> 00:03:07,399
Are you completely starving?

35
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:11,280
Or, perhaps, you've never
seen bread before?

36
00:03:11,300 --> 00:03:15,620
Get out of here, get out of here,
out of here, out!

37
00:03:15,630 --> 00:03:19,380
Get out of here, get out of here,
out of here, out!

38
00:03:19,383 --> 00:03:23,700
For hundreds of years we've scared people,
kept our region safe.

39
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:27,820
Maybe tomorrow they'll arrive here
with a whole battalion?

40
00:03:27,820 --> 00:03:31,610
You have disgraced us, brother,
our whole glorious clan.

41
00:03:31,740 --> 00:03:33,740
Witless ne'er-do-well!

42
00:03:33,810 --> 00:03:35,243
And a freak, as well!

43
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:43,400
Get out of here, get out of here,
out of here, out!

44
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:47,000
Oh, what a despicable thing
you've decided to do!

45
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:51,680
Stole a crust - and neither your brothers
Nor your sisters did you ask!

46
00:03:51,682 --> 00:03:55,123
You now have to work it off --
that's what our law says.

47
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,770
Now get you away from here,
to the lumberjack's to make amends!

48
00:03:58,944 --> 00:04:00,829
[N. Gogol
"Viy"]

49
00:04:00,860 --> 00:04:03,430
Get out of here, get out of here,
out of here, out!

50
00:04:03,430 --> 00:04:05,620
Get out of here, out!

51
00:04:05,643 --> 00:04:07,943
["Peas."]

52
00:04:22,476 --> 00:04:30,180
Oh, unfortunate, unlucky me.
My kinfolk have turned their backs on me.

53
00:04:30,546 --> 00:04:38,510
They say I stole some bread.
They say I've tarnished my biography.

54
00:04:45,830 --> 00:04:49,604
What should I do?
How should I live henceforth?

55
00:04:49,943 --> 00:04:53,810
How can I make amends?

56
00:04:54,016 --> 00:04:57,830
I'd like to fly into
the sky like a bird.

57
00:04:58,043 --> 00:05:02,330
I'm ready now to burn with shame.

58
00:05:09,343 --> 00:05:13,230
Oh, why did I do that thing?

59
00:05:13,483 --> 00:05:17,250
My family chased me away.

60
00:05:17,609 --> 00:05:21,437
Oh, how difficult my upbringing is...

61
00:05:21,621 --> 00:05:25,714
I must work to make amends for stealing.

62
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:38,260
Hello, uncle.

63
00:05:38,940 --> 00:05:41,280
Who are you? A hare's son?

64
00:05:42,100 --> 00:05:43,960
You want some? Here, have a nut.

65
00:05:44,376 --> 00:05:46,906
I'm a forest brother.

66
00:05:47,383 --> 00:05:50,560
You must forgive me for my sin,
this offence.

67
00:05:50,883 --> 00:05:54,300
If you like, I'll bring you
a whole load of logs.

68
00:06:03,037 --> 00:06:06,280
That wasn't hard for me,

69
00:06:07,396 --> 00:06:10,176
Give me a harder task.

70
00:06:11,223 --> 00:06:14,550
What, tell me, can't you do yourself?

71
00:06:15,150 --> 00:06:18,036
What can't you do in seven days?

72
00:06:19,116 --> 00:06:22,310
Anything you wish, I'll do.

73
00:06:23,211 --> 00:06:26,576
And I'll pull off whatever you want.

74
00:06:27,423 --> 00:06:30,636
Tell me what you dream of.

75
00:06:31,323 --> 00:06:34,197
I'll dive into fire for you.

76
00:06:42,856 --> 00:06:46,480
We've recently got a car.
There's a nasty git in it!

77
00:06:46,863 --> 00:06:50,460
Looks like a bedbug, a spider,
a millionaire greedyguts.

78
00:06:50,830 --> 00:06:54,476
This parasite has taken
all of our land.

79
00:06:54,850 --> 00:07:01,110
They're probably up there sleeping,
with their reins laid down.

80
00:07:06,630 --> 00:07:10,463
He's gotten himself a swamp
that's of no use to anyone.

81
00:07:10,460 --> 00:07:14,620
I'm thinking of starting
a vegetable garden there.

82
00:07:14,620 --> 00:07:18,680
How can that swamp be drained?
How can a field be ploughed there?

83
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:24,180
Is that something you could help with?
Is that in your power?

84
00:07:33,016 --> 00:07:38,063
Good day, honourable sir!
Good health to you!

85
00:07:38,363 --> 00:07:40,850
We have an agrarian plan.

86
00:07:41,130 --> 00:07:43,530
We're going to start today.

87
00:07:43,697 --> 00:07:46,690
If you, sir, will let us sow

88
00:07:46,830 --> 00:07:49,336
rows in the swamps.

89
00:07:49,438 --> 00:07:52,031
For one sack of given grain --

90
00:07:52,143 --> 00:07:54,570
a hundredfold return.

91
00:07:54,703 --> 00:07:57,323
"It's a hellhole of a land."

92
00:08:00,590 --> 00:08:05,556
Who are they? This whole thing's
suspicious.

93
00:08:06,231 --> 00:08:10,870
These new peasants nowadays,
unforgivably brazen!

94
00:08:11,443 --> 00:08:16,510
I'm not sorry for those swamps
and unseeded seeds.

95
00:08:16,857 --> 00:08:22,071
Let the fools be punished
by the transience of time.

96
00:08:22,316 --> 00:08:27,436
I want entertainment,
I want a neat spectacle:

97
00:08:27,631 --> 00:08:33,103
Let those people sow their rye
in the winter snowdrifts.

98
00:08:45,164 --> 00:08:48,713
Eh, swamp water, dark water.

99
00:08:48,886 --> 00:08:52,589
How many fairy tales, it seems,
it still holds.

100
00:08:52,903 --> 00:08:56,130
One must remove the cork from
the earth, not unlike a carrot.

101
00:08:56,630 --> 00:09:01,063
Grandpa's best kept secret
is an old rope.

102
00:09:03,237 --> 00:09:09,550
Summer, in a hurry, has woken up.
A new life is dawning.

103
00:09:10,150 --> 00:09:16,369
The lord's rye is now in bloom,
and we here are glowing.

104
00:09:17,356 --> 00:09:23,296
Help me out, you forest folk:
everything is out of order.

105
00:09:24,110 --> 00:09:30,235
Pig nose, hooves and tail
are a pass to evolution.

106
00:09:45,050 --> 00:09:51,303
Oh, what a miracle of miracles.
the rye is already swaying!

107
00:09:52,251 --> 00:09:58,377
The maiden quails are
touching it with their wings.

108
00:10:04,560 --> 00:10:08,290
What the hell is that?
He is sleeping on my land!

109
00:10:08,290 --> 00:10:12,120
He drained my swamp
and planted seeds in the darkness.

110
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:15,290
We'll figure it out, we'll figure it out.
I cannot see very well.

111
00:10:15,290 --> 00:10:19,823
If such things are now possible,
the rye's mine, the land's mine!

112
00:10:27,140 --> 00:10:30,860
Better, uncle, give me
a little sheaf of rye.

113
00:10:30,860 --> 00:10:34,340
I want to live richly
among palm trees in the tropics.

114
00:10:34,340 --> 00:10:37,680
What are you, little one:
A mouse or a tit?

115
00:10:37,680 --> 00:10:40,858
Hey, open up for him,
let him get rich.

116
00:10:41,170 --> 00:10:46,750
Well, I'm feeling kind today,
I won't hide it from you.

117
00:10:47,436 --> 00:10:53,376
Whatever you can carry in one go,
I'll give it back gladly.

118
00:10:53,689 --> 00:10:56,876
The millionaire, it looks like,
will live in the capital.

119
00:10:57,095 --> 00:11:01,282
He is gonna beggar me,
so as not to go bankrupt.

120
00:11:24,930 --> 00:11:27,890
The sun is rolling around.
A strange phenomenon!

121
00:11:28,043 --> 00:11:31,423
Wait! Where are you...? That is mine!
What is this performance?

122
00:11:56,868 --> 00:12:01,788
How did it turn out like this,
turn out so, so strangely?

123
00:12:02,103 --> 00:12:07,263
It's as if it wasn't me.
It was like a dream.

124
00:12:07,453 --> 00:12:12,533
No swamp, no problems.
No impassability.

125
00:12:12,833 --> 00:12:17,920
And in the village there's no more
evil or injustice.

126
00:12:18,119 --> 00:12:22,959
A tear falls from the eyelashes
of the aged parents.

127
00:12:23,483 --> 00:12:28,440
The world today's borderless.
Full of new discoveries.

128
00:12:28,746 --> 00:12:33,869
And all seems to be going well,
All that's in this new world.

129
00:12:34,023 --> 00:12:39,256
But the swamp is still sometimes 
remembered with fond words.
