01:30It's a no.
01:49Who is there?
01:54I've come for Grażyna.
01:56Grażyna, open the door. It's me.
01:59We don't have anything to talk about.
02:01Grażyna, don't be stubborn.
02:03We're going back home. You know we're invited to Łukasz's for dinner.
02:06Go to your Łukasz yourself. He's been willing to talk for two years.
02:09All right, I'm giving up the lambs.
02:12You're giving up the pigs too?
02:14And the wolves, and the donkeys, and my neighbor's wife too.
02:17And the Teresa you're breaking off contact with?
02:19You won over Teresa with my friend's wife!
02:21All right, all right, enough of your stupid jokes. Go back home.
02:24And you?
02:26Dad, please take him away.
02:28Can't you play such scenes without me?
02:31It's not very pleasant.
02:33We have nothing to hide.
02:35I want to provide the best conditions for my family!
02:38That's the point!
02:40And Mrs. Jemka would go to Yugoslavia to lie on the sand, right?
02:43Yes, but I can also go to the village.
02:46To the village? Are you crazy?
02:48You're making me angry.
02:50No, no, no. Why? I really like to rest in the village.
02:53So go to the village and I'll go to Spain.
02:56And that's the difference.
02:58I can go to the village and you have to go to Spain.
03:01Go away!
03:03Because I'm really going away.
03:05That's what I'm asking of you!
03:07I'm going away!
03:18Breakfast is ready.
03:35And now what?
03:37I have to give up a small town.
03:39It has already devoured you. It's a terrible force.
03:42What do you advise me?
03:44How can you advise a woman?
03:46You don't know anything about reason.
03:48You'll see.
03:50I'm sorry, dad, for everything.
03:52I'll go.
04:20I'm sorry.
04:43Isn't this Sucki's coat from the Jews, like Trotsky's?
04:50Yes.
05:04Here.
05:06Let mom read the dedication of the translator of this work.
05:09When did I take my glasses?
05:12To the glory of the Almighty Lord,
05:14Francis on the piers of Piłsudski,
05:17the cellar of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania,
05:20the elders of Wierzyński,
05:22the Cavalier of the Order of God's Obedience.
05:25The book was published in 1776.
05:28Enough?
05:30And he's definitely one of them?
05:33In a straight line.
05:35The first family in Lithuania.
05:38In a straight line.
05:40The first family in Lithuania.
05:42Well, he's got a good name.
05:45He doesn't believe in God.
05:47He got married in the church.
05:49But he became a mason.
05:51He was never a mason.
05:54But in his clique there's a lot of Jews.
05:57Even the tsar.
05:59The tsar is a Jew?
06:01How could a Pole be called a tsar?
06:05When the Bolsheviks were going to Warsaw in 1920,
06:09the tsar was talking to Trotsky on the phone
06:12from the cellar of the Grand Duchy on Saska Square.
06:15He was teaching him how to beat the Poles.
06:18Piłsudski himself was talking about it.
06:21What is my mother repeating here for stupid rumors?
06:24You can go crazy!
06:27And let my mother stop with these Jews at last!
06:36I'm sorry, son.
06:38Don't repeat this nonsense again.
06:41Piłsudski deserved to be a great Pole.
06:45And he's a man of action.
06:48He doesn't change his clothes or his words.
06:52Yes.
06:54You can't deny it.
06:56He's a man of action.
06:59He doesn't change his clothes or his words.
07:03Yes.
07:05You can disagree with his policy.
07:08But you can't throw mud at him.
07:11In Poland, anyone who grows above the average
07:14immediately creates battles of enemies.
07:16It grows out of tradition.
07:18The nobility always preferred to have a weak king
07:21than a strong leader.
07:23And to rule the Poles is worse than to pound a stone on the road.
07:27In general, it would be best to die quickly
07:30Listen to this.
07:33Here it is.
07:35Jealousy and envy are common in Poland
07:39not only among the nobility,
07:42but also among the nobles.
07:44Those who are distinguished by something
07:46do not seek admiration or recognition,
07:48but common hatred.
07:51They try to find out whether the merit or success is small.
07:54After all, this is one of them.
07:56And there is no right to be better than the other
07:58if the foreigner gets recognition and applause.
08:00Because the other speaks the language
08:02and then, even when he shows his cowardice,
08:04the hated Pole is a masterpiece of thought or art.
08:07And who wrote this, daddy?
08:10Jesus Christ of France.
08:12The father of Amadeus Baza,
08:14who visited Poland in the 70s of the 18th century.
08:17Even before the partition.
08:20Yes, in Poland, the hero does not refer to success.
08:24The hero suffers
08:27and dies.
08:29If Piłsudski fell under Warsaw,
08:31we would put a giant monument to him.
08:33And so?
08:35We throw him in the mud.
08:52Open up, old fool.
08:54I know you're there.
09:14Hello?
09:15Krysia?
09:16Yes.
09:17Once again, all the best.
09:18Likewise.
09:20Your ex-husband is standing at the door.
09:23Don't you think it's my idea?
09:26Don't you know what interest he has in me?
09:29He thought you were the only obstacle to his happiness.
09:33And I am.
09:36If I let him in, he's ready to beat me.
09:38I would be very happy.
09:41Say hello to Justyna, darling.
09:43If I go out whole, she'll fall in.
09:47Look, it's the first day of the holiday.
09:50You have to dress up like this.
09:52Mr. Brzozki must be in the church.
09:54Yes, he's in the church.
09:56Antichrist.
09:58He doesn't open because he's afraid to look into the eyes of a poor man.
10:02Do you know what he did to me?
10:04He stole my diamond.
10:06Impossible, Mr. Brzozki.
10:09Such a decent man.
10:11I would entrust the whole apartment to him.
10:13He stole my wife, my chinos.
10:20What did you steal?
10:26Ladies and gentlemen, this gentleman doesn't want to be cured.
10:29If you hear my scream, run to save me.
10:31I won't lock the door.
10:33All right, all right.
10:51I'm starting a new life.
10:54I'm taking on a responsible job.
10:57And I won't tell you where, so you don't disturb me.
11:00But I welcome your decision with the greatest joy.
11:11You're the last obstacle in my way of stabilizing.
11:15Thanks to you and Krystyna, we can't reach any conclusion.
11:19Should I kill myself?
11:21No, no.
11:23You just have to tell her not to count on you.
11:25Because you're old, you're standing over the grave.
11:28And in the will you can write down your savings.
11:31Here you are.
11:33To get drunk? I'll think about it.
11:36Can you give her happiness?
11:38I can.
11:40The child wants to have a father.
11:43Father, child, husband, wife.
11:47And if I don't get rid of Krystyna?
11:51I'll kill you.
12:08Here you are.
12:10Krysia, Marek took me as a hostage.
12:14Either you and death, or separation and life.
12:18I choose separation and life.
12:20I guessed you'd make such a choice.
12:23My intentions towards you were never honest.
12:27I never counted on your honest intentions.
12:30But you can't count on me.
12:32I don't even have the moral right to touch you.
12:35And sometimes I like it when you touch me.
12:38Krysia, we shouldn't meet anymore.
12:42I give you back your freedom.
12:44You never took it.
12:46I've decided not to stand in the way of your life anymore.
12:51Goodbye.
12:55Are you happy?
13:00You're a coward.
13:02She's leaving you as a dry son.
13:05But I'll save her anyway.
13:08She also wants to save you.
13:10Such a hopeless mission always attracts women.
13:13Maybe some water?
13:15What for?
13:17Anticochalant pills, of course.
13:27It's a pity to kick you.
13:30I won't take water to my mouth.
13:35And that you know I'll get a ticket for a small Fiat.
13:39I'll take my daughter and my wife all over the country.
13:43Maybe even abroad.
13:59Before the war, he was a madman.
14:03He was a madman.
14:05He lived with John the Baptist.
14:08And here?
14:10An old man.
14:12He didn't know anything.
14:15Why did he hurt you?
14:18Did you hear that?
14:21Every word.
14:25My son says that in the new apartment
14:28he'll have to put up a ceiling and a wall.
14:32He'll even have to raise his voice.
14:35When I get married,
14:38it's not like that at all.
14:41The whole corridor will be covered in secrets.
14:47And again, some foreign curse.
14:52Let's not talk about that.
14:54I'd like to wish you the best of luck.
14:57Thank you, but...
15:02You and I have nothing to wish for.
15:06Everything is behind us.
15:09And the most important thing is that we don't catch pneumonia.
15:14And that we leave this world in a Catholic way
15:18and without unnecessary suffering.
15:21Like Mrs. Kalina?
15:24A bad death.
15:26When they find a person by accident.
15:29A bad death...
15:32God bless our children and grandchildren.
15:36And may they close their eyes to us.
15:42Amen.
15:52God bless you.
15:56I'm going to the pub.
15:59Come on, it's Christmas.
16:26Hi.
16:28Hi.
16:34Indyk, you were at home?
16:37You deserve a Christmas dinner.
16:39You know, sometimes I'm glad I have a daughter.
16:42In the vicinity of Christmas.
16:45Good luck.
16:55Grażynka.
16:59I want to ask you
17:01a strange question.
17:04What is your first memory, from your childhood of course,
17:08related to me?
17:12I remember
17:14you brewing yourself a mouthful of hot soup.
17:18I see a table, a book on the table,
17:21you're sitting, eating your soup, and you call your mother,
17:24Marysia, you know I don't have a moment's time.
17:27I don't have a moment's time either.
17:29You didn't have time all the time.
17:31And we didn't have money, and a flat.
17:33I remember my mother crying.
17:35Why?
17:37We took the tram for a long time,
17:39and my grandmother said,
17:41such times, daughter, such times,
17:43others are even worse,
17:45at least he wants to achieve something.
17:47Then my mother burst into tears,
17:49she asked about my corpse.
17:51I was doing my doctorate,
17:53my mother was ill.
17:55I couldn't discuss a number of topics with you
17:57because, well,
17:59I didn't want you to say anything strange.
18:01You were worried about your career.
18:03I wasn't worried at all,
18:05and your time, 1954.
18:07I know what times those were.
18:09Anyway,
18:11times have never been easy in my life.
18:15Do you remember our stay in Międzyzdroje?
18:19You taught me how to swim,
18:21there were just the two of us.
18:23It was 1956.
18:25You were six years old.
18:27You kept running to the newsstand
18:29and shouting,
18:31my God, they're writing about it.
18:33Because I couldn't believe
18:35Jesus,
18:37how happy I was in those Międzyzdroje.
18:39I had my doctorate in my pocket,
18:41no one was bothering me about the past.
18:43The fate of the country
18:45was drawn in pink.
18:47We were going to set up a business.
18:49Listen, I was waiting impatiently
18:51to throw myself into the whirlpool of work.
18:53You were naive like me
18:55twelve years later.
18:57With this joy, you started to seduce a lady.
18:59She told me to call her aunt.
19:01Aunt Ivona.
19:03I couldn't stand her,
19:05because you started to leave me alone at night.
19:07And you took revenge
19:09by telling everything to your mother.
19:11After that,
19:13I never did that again.
19:15Little children are nature's communicators.
19:17They see the world as simple and pure.
19:19It seems to them
19:21that you can tell everything to everyone.
19:23I learned how to lie later.
19:25Rather tactfully.
19:27We were supposed to talk about you,
19:29dad, what do you mean?
19:31Do you want to show your image in my memories?
19:33It's not worth it.
19:35Anyway, there are many worse fathers.
19:37I beg you.
19:39I remember
19:41how you sat for hours over the books
19:43when you were writing down piles of papers.
19:45I had to get to something.
19:47I also remember
19:49that you didn't drink too much,
19:51you didn't beat your mother.
19:53Grażyna, you are reckless.
19:55I'm sorry.
19:57I also didn't hear
19:59what you wanted to say.
20:01As for Garbaty, I was quite simple.
20:03Have you been Garbaty since you were born?
20:05No.
20:07A storm of history brought me to the ground.
20:09I would rather call it the right of mimicry.
20:11I know it was about survival.
20:13I'm not accusing you of that.
20:17I have many more claims to myself.
20:23When something hurts you,
20:25you write down memories.
20:27It's true.
20:35Grażyna, open up!
20:37I don't know where you are!
20:39It doesn't make any sense!
20:41In a moment, all the neighbors will come out.
20:51Stop harassing my father, do you hear?
20:53I'm sorry, but she lost her mind.
20:55Goodbye, father.
20:57I think your father could help.
20:59She has lost her mind!
21:01Help you?
21:03You'll be fine on your own.
21:05Go away!
21:25Our dear homeland!
21:27Our dear German land!
21:31Stop it right now!
21:35Don't you like the Germans?
21:37Stasio fought on their side
21:39and praised their valiance.
21:43First of all,
21:45in the 7th Legion,
21:47I fought only for two months,
21:49in September and October of 1915.
21:51Then I was wounded.
21:53How did you get wounded?
21:57We jumped out of the trenches to attack.
21:59We, the people of Warsaw,
22:01wanted to show the Galileans
22:03that we could do something.
22:07I was wounded in the chest
22:09near the village of Kukle,
22:11in the clearing.
22:13Although it was a Russian-Austrian expedition,
22:15our people conquered the village
22:17because our neighbors were good Germans
22:19from Bavaria, not Austrians.
22:21Did you receive a German order?
22:23The day before,
22:25I took off my German shoes
22:27because I was already dead.
22:29It was better than all orders.
22:31Didn't you have your own shoes?
22:33They fell apart during the march
22:35from Warsaw to Wola.
22:37Some of them didn't even have pants.
22:39Stasio is telling the story.
22:41Yes, yes, my dear mother.
22:43We were going to attack in pants.
22:45White pants were sticking out of my undercoat.
22:47They turned gray.
22:50Many soldiers fought for Napoleon
22:52in white pants.
22:54I have pictures.
22:56And what was this village, Kukle?
22:58Small and miserable,
23:00like all the villages above Styra.
23:02But in the positional war,
23:04every meter of the ground
23:06was covered with a barrel of blood.
23:08Yes, many of our people
23:10were killed
23:12by this village.
23:20In my memory,
23:22many times and slowly,
23:24my father fell somewhere
23:26on the Volhynia River,
23:28near the Styra River.
23:30He was thrown there
23:32into the fight
23:34between the troops of the Three Partisans
23:36with the hope
23:38that something from this
23:40would result for Poland's independence.
23:42In this fight,
23:44we could only count on the Germans.
23:46They fought well
23:48against the Russians.
23:50But when in 1918
23:52the revolution broke out in Russia,
23:54we immediately turned against the Germans.
23:56Because now they were occupying Poland.
23:58Do you know that I had the pleasure
24:00of defeating the Germans
24:02in Warsaw in 1918?
24:04I am very proud of you.
24:06You gave the children your rifles
24:08because they were already in Bolshevism.
24:10How do you know?
24:12Mother was sitting quietly in Kiev.
24:14Quietly?
24:16I don't even wish it for Stas.
24:18And in 1920,
24:20Piłsudski came to Kiev.
24:22Then my mother could return to Warsaw.
24:24He came by tram,
24:26especially for me.
24:28What do you mean by tram?
24:30They entered the city by tram.
24:32He wanted to go to Kiev.
24:36He returned from there quickly.
24:46In this place, son,
24:48we stopped a German car.
24:50We disarmed an officer.
24:52He was a soldier.
24:54I wouldn't be able to disarm myself
24:56if I were an officer.
24:58Remember, they didn't have much to do.
25:00They wanted to escape to Holland.
25:02And we were really dangerous then.
25:04Our eyes were burning.
25:06You don't know what real enthusiasm is.
25:08Yes.
25:10In 1918,
25:12the Germans entered Poland.
25:14Yes.
25:16In 1918,
25:18the whole of Warsaw went crazy.
25:44But history doesn't repeat itself.
26:02I left the uprising
26:04disarmed by the Germans.
26:14Yes.
26:26Please.
26:28Krystyna,
26:30would you like to go for a Christmas walk?
26:32You can't sit at home like this.
26:34I can't.
26:36Doesn't your husband let you?
26:38My husband is gone.
26:40Did you throw him out?
26:42I'll be right back.
27:10Did you go for a walk?
27:12Yes.
27:14Marka took him after he was ready.
27:16He cut his veins
27:18when I took Justyna to a friend's house.
27:20It's very dangerous
27:22with his drug.
27:24They put two liters of blood in him recently
27:26and now he's letting it out.
27:28Let's not talk about it.
27:30But you're going to think about it all the time.
27:34I hate Christmas.
27:36Maybe we should go to the cinema?
27:38No.
27:42I'm leaving.
27:44I'm going to work
27:46in the industry.
27:48I have an offer.
27:50Let them kick me out.
27:52First you kick out a few people.
27:54Where would you go?
27:56Do you want to go with me?
27:58Not a bad idea.
28:00You're so cynical.
28:02I don't even know
28:04if you'd like to take me to the station.
28:08What about the apartment?
28:10I'll rent it out.
28:12What about Justyna?
28:14She'll go with me.
28:16It's the same school as everywhere else.
28:24Who was your grandfather, Krysia?
28:28I had two grandfathers.
28:30Tell me.
28:40Hello?
28:50I'd like to speak to the doctor on duty.
28:52I'm talking about a patient,
28:54Mark Grabi.
28:56He was brought in two hours ago
28:58with cut veins.
29:02Yes.
29:04Yes.
29:14He's bleeding.
29:18He knew I'd be back soon.
29:22He'll be released in a week.
29:24I won't be here anymore.
29:28I don't know how to make you happy.
29:30Should I propose to you?
29:32I don't know how to propose to you.
29:34My grandfather was gay,
29:36just like my father.
29:38They took him to the Austrian army.
29:40In 1917,
29:42he died on the Italian front.
29:44He drowned in a river.
29:48What was it called?
29:50Piawe.
29:52Yes.
29:54I'd like to go there.
29:56You see...
29:58I'll submit
30:00$150.
30:02I'll get support from the Ministry
30:04and I'll go hitchhiking
30:06with a bag of canned goods on my shoulder.
30:08To see Piawe
30:10and die.
30:12I've only heard about my grandfather
30:14from my grandmother,
30:16who left him with two children.
30:20What do you mean?
30:22And your grandfather,
30:24from your mother's side?
30:26He was a low-income man.
30:28My mother made a career.
30:30She married a forester
30:32and never left.
30:36And the forester...
30:38The forester allowed
30:40my parents to survive the war.
30:42The forester was dangerous
30:44during the war.
30:46I was born in 1944
30:48and the first uniform I remember
30:50was a green policeman's uniform.
30:54But I know...
30:56I remember
30:58my father
31:00during the war
31:02kept the partisans
31:04and even shot himself twice.
31:06Who were the partisans?
31:08Who supported Algajówka?
31:10I don't know.
31:12I didn't ask my father.
31:14You can ask your mother.
31:26I don't know.
31:34My father went to war twice.
31:36In September 1939
31:38and in February 1945.
31:40The second time
31:42he didn't make it to Berlin.
31:44He broke his leg on the way.
31:46Why do you care
31:48about my father's military service?
31:50You don't care?
31:52The war is a misfortune.
31:54He had to go.
31:56But my mother cried when he came back
31:58without his leg.
32:00Can you imagine a forester without his leg?
32:02Why don't you ask me
32:04how my father guarded the forest?
32:06How he set up schools?
32:08How he hunted wolves?
32:10You're right.
32:12I'm sorry.
32:14What did you start writing?
32:16Stories about the partisans?
32:18I'm studying the history of my fathers.
32:20And the fathers
32:22I'd like to go
32:24to the place
32:26where you were born.
32:28I've been there
32:30with Mark.
32:32He wanted to drink my mother.
32:34I envy you
32:36that place.
32:38Where do you want to go?
32:40I don't like
32:42when you retire.
32:44You're young
32:46but healthy.
32:48You'll live a few more years.
32:50Old-fashioned sentiments?
32:52You should find a job.
32:54Half a stage
32:56in a grocery store
32:58so they don't close it so early.
33:00I know you stopped loving me
33:02when I retired.
33:04But is it my fault
33:06that I was born a wolf?
33:08It's very convenient.
33:10You don't have to go back to old age.
33:12Missing the place
33:14of birth is a great feeling.
33:16How much pain
33:18grows in a man
33:20when he can't go back
33:22for various reasons.
33:24And what about me?
33:26This house on Wilczej
33:28burned down in the uprising.
33:30It was quickly renovated.
33:32The facade of the banal
33:34Częszówka remained.
33:36The street is almost the same.
33:38I don't have to breathe
33:40or miss anything.
33:42I even walk by
33:44with a certain reluctance.
33:46To the forest, Krysia
33:48Gajowianka.
33:54And what if you were born
33:56in Cuchlanka's barrack?
33:58It would be at least
34:00a title to be praised
34:02and a leap to a career
34:04like being born in Magnacki's palace.
34:06A tenement house
34:08on Wilczej doesn't help.

34:52I envy them.
34:54Thank you
34:56for your good intentions.

37:16The man in the white shirt is me, 6 years old.
37:21And this is Stasio, son of Major Błaszyński.
37:27And these are his wife and mother Stasia, Cavalier Order Virtuti Militare.
37:32In the interwar period, I didn't hear about a single woman who was wearing this badge.
37:37I thought it was contrary to nature, but I admired it even more.
37:40Apparently, she took part in some dangerous action of blowing up railway tracks.
37:45At that time, I listened to it like from a fairy tale.
37:47But I envied the mother of Stasia the 80% the most.
37:53I was surprised that she stayed at home at all,
37:56instead of constantly traveling the country in the first class compartment.
38:01Why is daddy late?
38:03Apparently, something had to stop Adasiu in the citadel.
38:08We never know what order Adasiu will receive from the officer.
38:11But he's already an hour and a half late.
38:15How are we going to get out of this mess?
38:17Oh, my dear.
38:19He'll come for sure.
38:22Oh, he's already here.
38:24Oh my God, what happened?
38:26Major was found in a ditch on Śmiała Street.
38:28I think his leg was broken.
38:31Here's a wounded fighter taken out of the battlefield.
38:34Will he die of bloodshed?
38:36Suddenly, Śmiała Street was filled with pictures of war.
38:40I let go of the explanation that someone was drunk in the citadel,
38:43and that father got drunk and hurried to us.
38:46He fell into an open ditch, because it was completely dark.
38:49He couldn't get out.
38:50Only the lieutenant's men heard his whining.
39:31I'm sorry.
39:49It means that Kozłowski wants to get rid of you.
39:52He's using only the pretext.
39:55What did you tell him?
39:58I told him that we're going to close the political opponents' fortresses.
40:04This is a terrible lie.
40:08Don't exaggerate, Stach.
40:09They were disturbing your marshal's reign.
40:13They're scoundrels.
40:16Who knows?
40:18Maybe that's how we avoided anarchy or civil war.
40:22Are you defending them?
40:27I can't be a lawyer, Diabła.
40:29You said that a strong government is necessary for Poles.
40:32I don't agree with such methods.
40:36Go to Sławek. He'll help you.
40:39Maybe I should go to Piłsudski?
40:42Sławek was your commander.
40:43Thanks to him, you got the independence.
40:46That's enough.
40:48Don't you understand?
40:49I understand, but the situation is exceptional.
40:52Sławek is a decent man.
40:54He's involved in Brześć. I won't ask him for anything.
40:58So you'll let him get away with it?
41:03That's my face.
41:10Oh, I'm glad you're not sitting.
41:14They were making a local vision, but they let me go again.
41:18The lieutenant understood that I wouldn't kill a hen that lays eggs.
41:22That's what they say, right?
41:24Golden eggs. In this case, divisive.
41:27You liked Mr. Kaliński.
41:29He's a good man.
41:31He's a good man.
41:33He's a good man.
41:35Golden eggs. In this case, divisive.
41:38You liked Mr. Kaliński, but you wanted to get rid of him.
41:42Let's have some tea.
41:44Please, please.
41:46I didn't like him at first, because I don't like old men like him.
41:50They make a mess everywhere and they're always angry.
41:54But then I started to like him, because he was very obedient.
41:58He never chased me.
42:00He never got angry.
42:02He had two cups.
42:05As he said, they were 200 years old.
42:08Indeed, they were worn out like after washing.
42:13And I took them from the closet, because I didn't want to wash them.
42:16And in general, he never got angry, he ate like a duck,
42:19so I didn't even have to stand in line for him.
42:23He smiled often.
42:25And he spoke very politely to me.
42:28But you know, such an old man is an old man.
42:30And when he spoke politely, I sometimes got goosebumps.
42:35I understand.
42:37Please, take the cups.
42:44Is the boy still in jail?
42:46He's still in jail.
42:48But they also locked up three others.
42:50I don't know them personally.
42:52But they went to the cafe next to the bazaar and drank wine there
42:55together with those who repair the roofs and have been sitting there for a long time.
42:58There was a stock exchange nearby.
43:00I mean, they were selling addresses.
43:03And maybe they sold Mr. Kalina for a bottle of pevniak.
43:06Tell them that I don't keep anything at home.
43:09You're not that old.
43:12They like to jump on pevniak, and you have a phone.
43:15Besides, you don't give out bonuses.
43:17It's not worth being a whore nowadays.
43:21That's why I feel sorry for Mr. Kalina.
43:24Now I'll find another one who hates me and pays bonuses for holding my hand.
43:31If only I were pretty and well-groomed.
43:34But you are pretty and well-groomed.
43:37Nonsense.
43:38How much would you give me?
43:40I can only serve kindness.
43:44Exactly.
43:47You know,
43:49when Mr. Kalina held my hand,
43:52he often closed his eyes, even though he didn't see much.
43:55And then I thought,
43:58maybe it's stupid,
44:01but that he thought he was holding someone else.
44:04Maybe a wife, maybe a daughter,
44:07or maybe some other lady.
44:10And that he remembered how it used to be.
44:13He was married, wasn't he?
44:15His wife died during the war.
44:18Fortunately, his daughter is alive.
44:21If it wasn't for her, Mr. Kalina would have lived a few more years.
44:26I don't know if he would.
44:29He once told me that his time had come,
44:32because he can't read books anymore, so he shouldn't live any longer.
44:36He couldn't watch TV either.
44:39But I saw the TV there.
44:42A colorful Japanese gift from his daughter.
44:45But he never turned it on.
44:47I wish I could look at myself in color,
44:50when he held my hand like that.
44:53He only listened to the radio.
44:56He said he had read 25,000 books,
44:59and that he couldn't read more in his life,
45:02unless he didn't sleep at all.
45:05I read maybe 50,000,
45:08and that was mostly in the laundry, when there were few people.
45:11I've lost everything, sir.
45:14But every day can bring changes.
45:17Maybe tomorrow a handsome young man will come to the laundry,
45:20and he'll hold your hand and never let go.
45:23You'll make me happy.
45:28I'll go now.
45:30Oh, and I'll wash the dishes.
45:44Good-bye.
45:51Good-bye.
46:10Hello.
46:12It's none of your business.
46:14It's very much my business.
46:16Today we can give peace to lies.
46:18Have you described your grandparents?
46:20And my grandmother. I'd like to see you, though.
46:23Are you happy that you're getting rid of me?
46:25How am I getting rid of you?
46:27It's you who doesn't like pensions.
46:29You'd like to be an active, fighting, successful partner.
46:32But you know that I don't like you.
46:35I read the truth even in your voice, Adaś.
46:38Good night.
46:42Good night.
47:13Andronik likes to weave gorgeous things.
47:17For example, he claims that
47:20once a pension meant
47:25being deserved.
47:28Once it meant, now it doesn't.
47:30The old concept has lost its way.
47:33It's not a reason for despair,
47:35but a beautiful sign of progress.
47:38A sign, a sign.
47:43Kiedyś kiełbasa była z mięsa
47:48Cukier rozpuszczał się, klej kleił
47:53A jak sen przysiadł ci na rzęsach
47:59Nie zasypiałeś bez nadziei
48:04Dziś jest pan na przedwczesnej ręce
48:09I są kłopoty spore z panem
48:14Pan w czarnej skrzynce swej pamięci
48:19Za dużo ma zapamiętane
48:24Po co pamiętać panie Brzozki
48:27Jakąś nadzieję cukier klei
48:30Tak przydałby się łódź z kleroski
48:32I żyłoby się panu lżej
48:35Lżej, lżej
48:40Dobranoc panu, panie Brzozki
48:45Jeszcze niby pana sen dogoni
48:50Niech pan posłucha ciekawostki
48:56Zauważonej bez ironii
49:01Pan nie wie, patrząc z mieszkiem w lustro
49:06Nie myśląc, jak mi kiełbasa brzydła
49:11Że jedną nocą czarną pustą
49:16Mogą wyrosnąć panu skrzydła
49:22I wiatr wesoły panu świśnie
49:28Że trzeba frunąć, trzeba żyć
49:32Niech się te skrzydła panu przyśnią
49:37Dobranoc panu, spać panu ić
49:42Dobranoc panu, spać panu ić
49:48Dobranoc panu
