The New Year's Adventure of Two Brothers

00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,453
Give it to me, it's mine!

10
00:00:39,493 --> 00:00:43,733
Children, the New Year is coming, 
and you are quarreling as always.

11
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:45,246
- Then where are the toys?
- Where's the candy?

11
00:00:45,300 --> 00:00:47,946
- The gingerbread?
- The nuts?

12
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:53,226
Boys, we live in a big forest,
because Dad's a forester.

13
00:00:53,346 --> 00:00:55,960
Such a beautiful New Year's
tree he brought you!

14
00:00:56,333 --> 00:00:58,946
But for sweets we have
to go to the city.

15
00:00:59,013 --> 00:01:02,546
If we sent Mom out, wolves
would eat her on the way.

16
00:01:02,586 --> 00:01:06,426
If I went myself, I wouldn't know 
how to find my way around the shops.

17
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,786
And we can't very well go together.

18
00:01:08,986 --> 00:01:13,586
You are brothers, yet you quarrel
every day as if you were strangers.

19
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,280
You, the elder brother, always
have it in for the younger.

20
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,786
Dad, I won't hurt my younger brother.

21
00:01:19,148 --> 00:01:21,359
We'll keep the house in perfect order

22
00:01:21,506 --> 00:01:24,133
until you and Mom return
home from town.

23
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,320
- You give me your word?
- I give you my word of honor.

24
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:31,800
Good. it's now early in the morning.

25
00:01:32,506 --> 00:01:36,866
We will come back in the evening around
8 to decorate the New Year tree.

26
00:01:36,933 --> 00:01:39,386
In the meantime,
I'll put it into the hall.

27
00:01:39,430 --> 00:01:41,960
I will be back in time to
bake a delicious cake,

28
00:01:42,050 --> 00:01:43,973
and we'll meet the New Year
in good spirits.

28
00:01:44,050 --> 00:01:45,373
Hooray!

29
00:01:45,530 --> 00:01:48,080
Until our return you will
be the master of the house.

30
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:52,160
But don't you forget to throw wood
into the furnace. And to have lunch.

31
00:01:56,946 --> 00:02:00,506
Take this box of matches.
If the fire goes out,

32
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,813
you'll be able to rekindle it.

33
00:02:02,973 --> 00:02:06,680
You are responsible for the house, and,
most importantly... for your brother!

34
00:02:06,910 --> 00:02:10,293
You will be like a father to him.
See to that!

35
00:02:14,199 --> 00:02:15,340
Mom.

36
00:03:03,986 --> 00:03:05,720
Lunchtime!

37
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,360
"Sinbad the Sailor. An Arabian tale"

38
00:03:40,973 --> 00:03:42,880
Look at these!

39
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:51,240
Play with me, please!

40
00:03:51,350 --> 00:03:54,266
Leave me be! I'm at the
most interesting spot.

41
00:03:54,514 --> 00:03:58,441
Above Sinbad's ship appeared
a huge roc bird.

42
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,253
It carried in its claws
a stone the size of a house.

43
00:04:02,449 --> 00:04:04,449
Will it ruin our tower?

44
00:04:04,620 --> 00:04:07,826
Let's first construct it
with these blocks.

45
00:04:11,301 --> 00:04:14,794
Play with me,
please play!

46
00:04:16,288 --> 00:04:18,140
Leave me in peace!

47
00:04:18,413 --> 00:04:23,733
What are you doing? You promised to
be like a father to me. Let me go!

48
00:04:24,333 --> 00:04:25,880
Okay, okay.

49
00:04:25,973 --> 00:04:29,360
I'll just read 5 lines
and then I will let him back in.

50
00:04:29,613 --> 00:04:32,946
Nothing will happen to
him in the meantime.

51
00:04:39,298 --> 00:04:41,673
What is this?
What have I done?!

52
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:46,120
Junior is out there in the cold.
On his own! Without proper clothes!

53
00:04:47,853 --> 00:04:51,986
Where are you? 
Forgive me!

54
00:04:53,346 --> 00:04:58,106
Our parents will return soon!
Ah, if only I could turn back time,

55
00:04:58,407 --> 00:05:02,400
I wouldn't have thrown my brother
out the door, and we'd be standing
side by side, happy.

56
00:05:03,574 --> 00:05:05,457
Junior, where are you?

57
00:05:06,210 --> 00:05:09,746
Where are you hiding?
Come out!

58
00:05:12,013 --> 00:05:14,520
Children, where are you?

59
00:05:14,690 --> 00:05:16,997
My boys, oh where are you hiding?

60
00:05:17,026 --> 00:05:19,786
I see footprints.
Did you hurt yourself?

61
00:05:19,780 --> 00:05:22,800
I... I cannot find my younger brother.

62
00:05:22,850 --> 00:05:25,680
Where is he?
Where is your younger brother?

63
00:05:25,813 --> 00:05:28,520
Why did you run out into the yard
without a coat?

64
00:05:32,226 --> 00:05:35,040
- Where's Junior?
- He was bothering me

65
00:05:35,140 --> 00:05:38,466
and wasn't letting me read 
about Sinbad the Sailor.

66
00:05:38,750 --> 00:05:42,693
I pushed him out of the door
for only a few minutes,

67
00:05:43,250 --> 00:05:46,600
to finish reading the
most interesting part.

68
00:05:47,093 --> 00:05:50,880
Nothing would have happened
to him in that time.

69
00:05:51,106 --> 00:05:53,893
Nothing would have happened...
if I...

70
00:05:54,303 --> 00:05:57,772
I remembered about him only when...

71
00:05:58,173 --> 00:06:01,880
...the clock struck 8.

72
00:06:02,093 --> 00:06:03,640
He vanished,

73
00:06:03,986 --> 00:06:06,080
God knows where.

74
00:06:06,266 --> 00:06:10,853
As if... as if he was
taken by a roc bird.

75
00:06:12,506 --> 00:06:15,280
I'll find him, I'll find Junior!

76
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:22,770
- Junior!
- Children!
- Boys!

77
00:06:22,971 --> 00:06:25,588
- Junior!
- Children!

78
00:06:26,039 --> 00:06:27,336
Junior!

79
00:06:27,824 --> 00:06:29,761
Junior!

80
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,346
Am I the only one yelling now?

81
00:06:32,493 --> 00:06:33,980
The roc bird?

82
00:06:39,021 --> 00:06:39,998
Junior!

83
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,106
How did I get here

84
00:06:52,893 --> 00:06:54,746
in only one night?

85
00:06:54,820 --> 00:06:58,346
After all, from the house to the
mountains takes 7 weeks of riding.

86
00:06:59,146 --> 00:07:01,040
I've found Junior!

87
00:07:01,666 --> 00:07:04,306
And father will drive
after me in the sledge,

88
00:07:04,373 --> 00:07:06,773
to take me home!

89
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:12,053
But those (sledge)bells aren't
coming any closer...

90
00:07:12,547 --> 00:07:16,000
And they never ring
so delicately and evenly.

91
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,333
But it isn't just ringing in my ears!

92
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,653
I'll go and find out
what this ringing is!

93
00:07:26,733 --> 00:07:29,026
The earth in this forest,

94
00:07:29,303 --> 00:07:32,342
completely frozen,
has turned into a skating rink.

95
00:07:32,813 --> 00:07:35,413
There's such a terrible frost here.

96
00:07:36,562 --> 00:07:38,054
Why don't I feel cold?

97
00:07:38,547 --> 00:07:40,430
I arranged for it;

98
00:07:40,910 --> 00:07:44,560
the cold will cause you no harm

99
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,280
for the time being.

100
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,920
Do you know who I am?

101
00:07:49,090 --> 00:07:51,186
You're Grandpa Frost.*
*(Santa Claus)

102
00:07:51,306 --> 00:07:53,700
Not at all.

103
00:07:54,306 --> 00:07:56,611
I am Grandfather Permafrost.

104
00:07:57,554 --> 00:07:59,046
The old man of ice.

105
00:08:00,333 --> 00:08:04,280
And that is quite a different matter,
my young friend.

106
00:08:04,535 --> 00:08:05,847
Follow me.

107
00:08:26,417 --> 00:08:27,495
Follow me.

108
00:08:27,590 --> 00:08:31,506
- But I need to look for my brother.
- Your brother's here.

109
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:44,413
Sit down beside me,
let's be cold together!

110
00:08:45,106 --> 00:08:48,773
You drove your younger
brother out into the cold,

111
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:52,293
because you wanted him
to give you some peace, you said.

112
00:08:52,426 --> 00:08:55,880
Such an act pleases me.

113
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,106
You love peace as much as I do.

114
00:08:58,146 --> 00:09:02,746
You shall stay here for many ages.

115
00:09:03,270 --> 00:09:06,066
- Got it?
- But my folks are waiting for us at home.

116
00:09:06,133 --> 00:09:09,306
You shall stay here.

117
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:12,093
For many ages.

118
00:09:12,567 --> 00:09:15,778
These fidgety creatures
even in winter

119
00:09:15,922 --> 00:09:18,881
don't leave me in peace.
- Are they dead?

120
00:09:19,095 --> 00:09:21,661
I have calmed them down,
but not completely.

121
00:09:22,058 --> 00:09:24,084
They should be rotated in
front of the oven

122
00:09:24,250 --> 00:09:28,440
until they turn completely
transparent and icy.

123
00:09:29,133 --> 00:09:32,933
Occupy yourself immediately
with that useful job.

124
00:09:32,965 --> 00:09:35,863
- I'll run away.
- You will not run anywhere.

125
00:09:36,348 --> 00:09:38,684
Your brother is locked
in a neighboring room.

126
00:09:38,893 --> 00:09:44,000
For now he will keep you here,
and later you will get used to me.

127
00:09:44,613 --> 00:09:46,653
To work!

128
00:09:53,550 --> 00:09:54,560
Ready.

129
00:09:55,146 --> 00:09:57,320
Now do the next one.

130
00:09:59,338 --> 00:10:02,457
- Your hands are not freezing?
- No.

131
00:10:02,799 --> 00:10:07,545
I ordered the cold
to not cause you any harm.

132
00:10:08,133 --> 00:10:12,720
But remember! If you disobey me...

133
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,653
...I will freeze you.

134
00:10:16,210 --> 00:10:18,780
Stay here and wait for me.

135
00:10:29,426 --> 00:10:33,933
It's time to retire to bed.

136
00:10:40,102 --> 00:10:43,296
Go to the pantry,
and bring breakfast.

137
00:10:44,253 --> 00:10:47,226
It is on shelf number 9.

138
00:10:49,626 --> 00:10:51,786
It's all frozen.

139
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:57,173
And all this must be nibbled
and sucked on, like hard candy.

140
00:10:57,306 --> 00:11:00,600
I'm heading off to work.

141
00:11:02,506 --> 00:11:06,520
You may roam everywhere
and even go out of the palace.

142
00:11:07,706 --> 00:11:11,826
Goodbye, my young apprentice.

143
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,133
Junior!

144
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,813
I have come for you. Are you here?

145
00:11:18,493 --> 00:11:21,653
How can I break this ice door?

146
00:11:22,285 --> 00:11:23,535
Oh, with this!

147
00:11:25,253 --> 00:11:27,773
It bounces back as if it hits a stone.

148
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:35,773
No, I was not mistaken about you,
my young friend.

149
00:11:36,226 --> 00:11:37,960
You're a quiet one.

150
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:43,240
"Leave me in peace!"
What great words!

151
00:11:43,386 --> 00:11:48,320
With these words people are always
pulling down their brothers.

152
00:11:48,453 --> 00:11:51,200
These great words

153
00:11:51,306 --> 00:11:53,653
will one day establish

154
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:57,933
eternal peace on earth.

155
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:03,306
Oh, how peacefully I lived
back in the ancient times

156
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:07,613
when glaciers covered
almost the complete earth.

157
00:12:07,786 --> 00:12:11,426
I was then young and full of energy.

158
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,333
What does your absurd behavior mean?

159
00:12:14,853 --> 00:12:17,080
I'm heading off to work.

160
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,080
Quickly, to the living forest.

161
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:46,733
Aha!

162
00:12:47,266 --> 00:12:51,680
But this icy door
is still as hard as a rock.

163
00:13:00,746 --> 00:13:05,960
Hello! You just wait, Grandfather
Permafrost, we still have some living to do.

164
00:13:13,893 --> 00:13:17,893
My brother is hidden there
behind that door.

165
00:13:20,433 --> 00:13:21,441
Where are you?

166
00:13:21,841 --> 00:13:25,942
If I catch you again,
I will freeze you!

167
00:13:26,954 --> 00:13:27,844
Sleep!

168
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:33,786
We sensed the danger and managed 
to hide in the corners of the hall

169
00:13:33,786 --> 00:13:36,906
where it was darker.
We'll help you.

170
00:13:39,616 --> 00:13:41,647
Leave me in peace.

171
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:45,653
But where, where is the keyhole?

172
00:13:55,622 --> 00:13:57,317
Let's run, I beg you, let's run!

173
00:13:57,986 --> 00:14:01,306
Mom is waiting for us.
Let's hurry back home.

174
00:14:08,434 --> 00:14:11,364
Boy, boy, stop!

175
00:14:11,904 --> 00:14:15,246
The boy is freezing up.
Hurry, we must warm him up!

176
00:14:18,883 --> 00:14:20,292
Stop!

177
00:14:46,506 --> 00:14:49,453
Look - a snowdrop!

178
00:14:50,088 --> 00:14:52,666
Do not worry, father
knows how to do everything.

179
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:56,733
He'll bring you back to life.
Probably bring you back to life...

180
00:15:04,693 --> 00:15:11,040
That's right, you can't
escape me that easily!

181
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,850
We will collect Junior's pieces

182
00:15:13,906 --> 00:15:17,133
and warm him up with our fur.

183
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:25,533
- Junior!
- Ah, it's you.

184
00:15:25,746 --> 00:15:31,333
- What time is it?
- We must hurry home to mom and dad.

185
00:15:34,666 --> 00:15:37,173
How loudly the birds twitter today.

186
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:41,413
They're happy because it's warm.
Because it's spring.

187
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,706
- Do you hear that?
- No. What's the matter?

188
00:15:44,866 --> 00:15:47,200
- Someone's running toward us.
- No.

189
00:15:47,226 --> 00:15:51,480
I also imagined that all winter long.
No-one will come here.

190
00:15:51,544 --> 00:15:53,146
- Children!
- Mom!
- Children!

191
00:15:57,197 --> 00:16:01,042
Mom, Dad, you've become young again.

192
00:16:01,533 --> 00:16:05,853
- Children, we'll always
treat each other well now!
- And be happy!
