Bravo!

Bravo!

Emilia, Emilia!

I'm sorry

I. I couldn't help it, I.
I love the theater too much

So you did it Thank you

Bravo!

You think it's brave to go out there and set
yourself on fire like that? A real feat, right?

So what do you suggest?
Selling out the way you did?

OK, fine

You don't care about the theater,
about us-you don't give a damn

But you.. Think about yourself!

They could lock you up in the nuthouse!

And they definitely won't let you stay in the
theater Do you at least understand that?

I'm not staying here.

So you're betraying us again

Let's go, let's go

Good, good Emilia, careful.

Emilia, do you remember
how we used to play theater?

So today we're going
to play again, OK?

Do you remember when
we were at the theater?

There were a lot of men there
And they all talked really loud, right?

Remember, it was
even a little scary

So now I really want to ask you to play
the part of the bravest girl in the world

who's not afraid of anything at all

You brave little girl
You little hero of mine

Now I'm going to hide you
Don't be afraid of anything.

May 1972 Kaunas, Lithuania

Blame only the regime for my death.
Romas Kalanta

Mom! Look!

You'll get your bath,
and coffee, and cocoa

- You know, maybe a little bit - A little bit? The
guys say I'm the spitting image! I could act!

- Would you like to?
- No way, what kind of job is that?

Raise your arm, lower your ass,
raise your leg

But this-the collective farm.
now that's a job!

- Well I'm going to act in the theater
- Get out, seriously?

- Seriously
- I've never been to the theater

- Never?
- Uh-uh

Then I'll invite you, definitely

I think for the average
Soviet man, the theater

But everything there is
so exulting, so pure!

Yeah, pure- and there I am,
with these dirty boots of mine, right?

I'll suffocate, oh, I'll suffocate
Those black walls crushed me

- Oh no, stop, stop, please don't!
- Those black walls. The spirit of God does not exist in the world

- I can't hear you I can't hear you - I'll
suffocate, oh, I'll suffocate Those black..

Stop, stop, stop!

So you'll find that theater of yours?

Will you find your garage?

- Emilia.
- Yes?

- Will you invite me to a show?
- I'll think about it

Take care!

Freedom for Lithuania!
Freedom for Lithuania!

- Excuse me, let me through, let me through - Hey,
you're going in the wrong direction Come with us.

- What? Where?
- Come with us, it's more fun.

Just look around,
everyone wants freedom

- I have to go to the theater!
- Where?

- To the theater!
- What are you doing? Stop!

OK, let's go
To the farmstead, get moving.

Let's go!

- Hi Leon
- Hi.

Hold on.. I have one of
yesterday's for you

- How many did we get yesterday?
- Four hundred.

And where did they put them?

Eight are getting time, and they shaved
the other hippies bald and let them go

- Here They gave one over to us
- Why?

They said it's your field,
anti-Soviet literature

Here, read it

- What's his name?
- Her name. Some actress.

What are you standing there for?

Sit down

What's your name?

Emilia

So, an actress

I've been appointed.
To the theater

From the conservatory

So you'll have to invite me to a show

Sit down!

What is this, you've decided
to try and scare me?

And in general

young lady, maybe there's
something you want to tell me?

Let me go To the theater

Please

Of course, this is no dormitory,
but I understand

how hard it is these days
to find a place to stay. Wow

So.

No roaming around
the theater at night.

No monkey business,
no boys, no drinking.

What happened to your face?

- I fell.
- Hm.

This one's yours
This is for the stage door

Thank you

Rehearsal is at 10:00
Actors aren't late here

Welcome

Comrade Ceslovas, this isn't just a table

He's seating us here
like apostles at the last supper

and hoping that we won't understand anything.
Or that we'll pretend that we don't understand!

So maybe he'll make us sing
some religious hymn to finish it off?

This is an artistic solution
They're fanatics of their idea-apostles!

Right, apostles

I can smell that nationalistic
underground of yours a kilometer away.

Kil-AH-meter

A kil-AH-meter too!

Guys, come on

- Ceslovas, all this over some stupid table
- Yeah, really

This isn't about the table.

This is for Lithuania

Excuse me.

They already brought the bones.

Come on, they're here!

Let's go

What's this now?

Hi, it's good you're here
I need some with more meat, with meat.

Yeah, yeah, that one.
Give it to me, give it to me

This is mine, mine
I got here first

- How many did you take?
- I was first and I need it

Bones?

The Meat Combine takes care of us.

We give them a better play,
and they give us better bones

Have you settled in?

How is it?

- I just expected it to be totally different.
- The theater?

- It always seemed so.. You know, so..
- Magical.

There's nothing magic here

- It's a quagmire
- The theater?

This whole damn
system is a theater..

You're neither sobbing
nor quarreling

We're neither returning
nor coming back

As long as we have the road,
we're moving forward

As long as we have our hearing,
we're listening to the song

We all sang as well as we could
We all.

I want to welcome

the newest addition to our tight-knit
family here at the theater

- the young artist. Elena?
- Emilia.

Emilia!

Each person who has consecrated his
life to the theater is, in truth

renouncing himself completely

This is how he gives all of himself

to the playwrights, the directors,
his partners and the audience

And I have no doubt that our theater is
the perfect cherry orchard, where

- Orchard-more like a collective farm
- A garden

where the talent of a
young artist can blossom

So, my dear Emilia

I'm sure you will manage to feel at
home with this group and this stage

and that you will one day shine brighter
than some of our theater's veterans

- I welcome you
- Thank you.

And now a word from the
future living classic

future People's Artist of the USSR
and the Lithuanian SSR-Emilia!

- Poem
- Poem, poem.

Poetry

It is a hymn to the warriors
and the unknown soldiers

who come to rape
our mothers and sisters

To the temples of gods

whose altars have been exchanged
for a fat stomach hundreds of times

It is a hymn to papa Caesar, whose lucid
mind leads us into the bright distance

where we perch, free, behind bars

sucking the foul air into our chests
as if it were the spirit of freedom

and feeding each other lies, and singing
the hymn to the god of betrayal

who is soiled with the
blood of white lambs!

Not bad Just..

I didn't have time to do that then

Rehearsal tomorrow

- is at nine
- Eleven, director.

Nine.

Bravo, bravo, bravo.

You know

whatever kind of ideas

he's trying to carry out, he doesn't
have the right to break an actor's back.

An over-ambitious director, he
stifles both the playwright's idea

Director?

Yes, director

He stifles both the playwright's
idea and the actor's talent

Director

So we actors

we have to stick together and
resist this directorial despotism

And you were great.

Way to go.

You got up and, how did it go

we're feeding each other lies, and
singing the hymn to the god of betrayal

By the way, who's the author?

I'm telling you,

they can access your papers, but

they never go and look themselves

The authorities give the order..

And I bring it to them

And your file, believe me..

There's a layer of dust that thick
it's been lying there so long

Don't get me wrong,

but maybe you have paranoia or something?

You could take a vacation, relax

I'm serious

Wait, maybe it's not our guys
checking you out, huh?

Then I have no idea

You have a cornflower in your hand,
completely differently than after the war

Wonderful times have come

Pearls of dew are hanging in the forest

From happiness, not a hangover,

You would drop into a floweryley

And above the native forest border,

A small breeze drives a cloud away.

All together now

Join in.

- Not now
- Another verse

You listen to a song that

scares a hare at the far end of the field, and you write
perfect lines, that you can shove wherever you want

Comrade Ausra, excuse us please

So it turns out you really are an actress

So, what is it, what?
I cannot understand

So many horrors surround us
and so much senselessness

Who gave this to you?

WHO?

My dad.

My dad wrote it

And who might dad be?

An enemy of the people

This is the last time
I'm asking nicely

Who.sent.you?

No one sent.

There is one step between
a hero and a traitor.

- I'm not a traitor
- A simple question

A simple. Answer

- No one sent me I was sent here from the
conservatory - Don't you try my patience!

- I.
- Quiet!

- I don't.
- Answer me, now!

- I don't know anything.
- Simple and clear, or

- I don't know anything.
- One

- No one sent me I swear I
don't know anything - Two

I need the procedural room

Bring Kostas in

No one informed me

I'm informing you, now.

Leon, but after last time I.

- Shhh.

- Leon

A dark night in late autumn.
Bearers of freedom settled there

Bearers of freedom

He's a good poet WAS

The poems he wrote for children

Only no one knows that in '49 he wrote
songs for bandits in the forests

Leon!

Leon!

Leon!

They arrested Cornflower, Leon
They tortured her!

Just look what the fear of
death does to a person

You can't love the fatherland when
you're rotting somewhere in the swamp

- Please, don't

We promised him a comfy life that every fucking
Little Octobrist would recite his poems

But he betrayed everything
Every last person he knew.

He was a faithful dog
Just the alcohol.

His conscience woke up

Look how heroes of the people die Look!

Get out of here.

Go home, mother

No!

Come on, pick him up!

So, are you going to keep
playing the hero, or what?

You think I'll see this
and shit my pants?

You think you're going to scare me?

I'm the one who does the scaring here
Got it?

This is all I have left of my family.
I don't have anyone to betray

I never have

I. I don't have anything.

We all have someone to betray

Alright, I see it's not funny
Hi there

What's wrong?

Emil.

Right

Is there anything I can. Do?

I...

- You sit.
- I'll wash them.

Come on I.

- It's fine, I'll do it myself.
- I'm sorry It's my. I'll wash them then.

Oh, right OK.

- Could you not stare?
- Oh, yeah. I can

Wrath, vexation, you say
And love?

Love has come, perhaps for
the first time, to those

those old blackened halls, where only
spite and pain had built a nest before

Now love has come.

We cried, like children from joy that
first day when we were alone together

I was looking for you
and I found you

I have been looking for you
from the day I was born

I wanted to challenge death

But I summoned With all my heart,
I summoned life

I want to comprehend
my incomprehensible fate

Wait a minute You wrote this?

- My dad wrote it
- And dad is...?

An enemy of the people

Emilia.

Kristina!

Kristina!
Wait. Wait up

Kris Kristina

I just. Stopped by

Kristina.

Oh, Lithuania! Lithuania!

My love, punish me if there is even
a drop of blood among the diamonds

Save me if there is love shining
for you in the diamonds

Be free, oh Lithuania, for ever and ever
And be just and good to all!

So. What do you think?

While no one is talking, I'd like to
ask a question, if that's alright

Who stole the manure?

- What?
- The manure.

I called the collective
farm yesterday and

they said that they loaded
a truck of manure for us.

So where's the truck?

Listen, we're talking about
the play, about Lithuania

Well we're talking
about the manure

He's right, it's time to
fertilize the garden

Hey, hey, so when did you
sell your actor's soul?

And what did you get? That ration
coupon for a washing machine?

You try washing shit-filled diapers
every day with bloody knuckles,

I'd like to see that

Come on everyone,
just look what material we have

Hold on, hold on

What material?

This isn't material-this is.
the devil only knows what this is.

A woman leading a revolution

And against who-the Great Russian nation!

So what do you have against
women, huh, Julius?

Jonas, you're the director
Say something already!

What, Julius?
Against tsarist rule

Against class inequality

Emilia Plater
The first female revolutionary

But yeah

Obviously. The text is tricky

Exactly, exactly
That's what I'm talking about.

Women!

A female revolutionary!
Like Maryte Melnikaite.

And at the Ministry

it'll breeze right through.

Oh, I've got to go Watch it now.

Before you came,
we had everything

We went on tour, we
performed at the Kremlin

They were going to let us take
our plays abroad To Poland.

What, were the plays any worse?

By the way, they have
a good theater there.

- In Poland?
- At the Kremlin

You idiot

They have a snack bar there where you can
get bananas, and peas and mayonnaise.

I don't like mayonnaise

Learn to make compromises
So it works for them and us. Understand?

No, Julius, I don't understand

I am Severiute from Uzpaliai Village,
Where the railway turns to the south,

Where along the tracks I walked barefoot, Like
a pregnant laundress driven out of the house.

Like the last one, at the big table
set out There was no room for me

Behind my back, without me
hearing, you talked, you talked,

Behind my back, without me
hearing, you talked, you talked,

Behind my back, without me
hearing, you talked, you talked

I was not a sister to you,
I just wove the linens

I raised my third mute
brother by myself

I wept in the wooden
bed of my dead father

And did not blame you.

I walked through the frozen earth like through
knives, and plodded through the mud of the village

I lived far from you, from
Uzpaliai Village, miles away,

At night of a small white-headed
baby, white-headed baby

I would talk with the grass

The little hunchback who died the year
before last played the accordion for me

He said he would clothe me in
beer and shoe me with a scythe,

He said he would clothe me in
beer and shoe me with a scythe,

He said he would clothe me in
beer and shoe me with a scythe.

No! No!

- Just give it a try.
- I'm not wearing these rags

These aren't rags

These are costumes for the
play-get used to them

I said no.

Kristina, we already discussed
what this play is about

That this play is about us, about you,
about me, about freedom

About creative freedom that we don't have.
And the freedom to be a person

Yeah, well I also don't understand
what that madhouse has to do with it?

Listen, she's leaving everything
Her parents, her home, her privileges. You

She's rounding up the
men and going to war.

You see, she's sacrificing
herself for freedom

She's giving up her life

And you-you take the shirt,
well, like a dress.

A wedding dress-you see
where I'm going with this?

And it's as if.
It's like the death of freedom

Like this?

And you know,
I thought that maybe

maybe you can stick me in a box
and make me read my lines from there?

There, you got it

Do you understand that I am not a thing
that you can stick in some box!

To read my lines from there!

I'm an actress, understand?

You can't shove an actor
around like a pawn!

You're doing everything
you can to kill the actor

But I want to express my thoughts freely Without
all those bells and whistles And without a fuss

So if these rags cover up your talent, then
maybe there isn't any talent there at all?

Go to hell with that
talent of yours, got it?

I'm not playing this shit

So don't!

You don't have to

I don't think you even could!

What are you looking at?
Rehearsal is over

You can't act like this

Don't tell me what I can and can't do!

I don't get it,
what can't you do here?

What's the big deal? How can you
go out in front of the audience

if you can't even tie a simple knot?

Tie it!

Come on

You tie it, tie it
Come on, tie it!

- You can't?
- Marius, easy

- Why?
- Calm down

What for?

You can't!

You can't

I can

Excuse me, but where
can I find Antanas?

What's this?

An invitation to the theater
I got a role

Emilia, wait

Kristina wrote Korsakas a complaint

What?

Can you imagine, the bitch?

She wrote all kinds of stuff
That Marius is ruining the actor's talent

that his artistic decisions aren't
in line with the spirit of the times

that he's putting on an anti-Soviet play.

How do you know that?

I overheard it
You know how she screams.

- So what's going to happen now?
- I don't know

But I'm afraid that she's not
going to leave it at that

So if anything happens, just say so,
because we're all behind you.

Thanks.

Kids, buy some pastries, they're good
and fresh, with cabbage or poppy seeds

- Do you have any with meat?
- With cabbage or poppy seeds

- With cabbage
- With cabbage And one with poppy seeds

- Thank you
- Enjoy

- And come by tomorrow, we'll
have some with meat - OK!

Get up

Say your lines.

Say your lines.

- Say them now
- What, sir, do you want?

It's just a little nothing
Let me in your blouse

Is that all?

I will open my heart to you,
and the gates to freedom

I don't need freedom if it is given
to me by someone else's hand.

I don't need freedom if it is
given to me by someone else's

So what do you see in this scene?
Who do you see when you look at me?

What's going on in this scene?

We discussed this-
Kablukov is your fiancé

But he's scum

You hate him, right?

You can't stand him

His every touch, his every word,
his every gesture

He's pallid, fat, blemished.

He collapses on you every night
with that big, white stomach

and smelly armpits.
He licks you.

Think about a person you despise.

One specific person

Unleash something Get mad at yourself Someone
from your most detestable nightmares

When you wake up in the morning
and can't wash it off

You can't wash it off because he's sticky,
slimy, clinging, like, like a leech

Like. Like a tick embedded in your
skin that you can't brush off

he just lurks inside every second
like a disease, like pain, like. Cancer

Come on! Come on!
Squeeze him out of yourself!

No!

You louse!

Give me the other one

Poetry! It is a hymn to the
warriors and the unknown soldiers

Who come to rape our mothers and sisters,
leaving only blood and the seed of Satan

To the temples of gods

Whose altars have been exchanged for
a fat stomach hundreds of times

It is a hymn to papa Caesar

to papa Caesar, whose lucid mind
leads us into the bright distance

where we perch, free, behind bars sucking the foul air
into our chests as if it were the spirit of freedom

and feeding each other lies, and
singing the hymn to the god of betrayal

who is soiled with the blood of white lambs

Not bad

It's the right direction

I want to tell you a story
about an actor.

There was this actor he
wasn't bad, talented

- The audience loved him.
- I'm not saying anything

I'm not asking you anything.

That actor got an assignment.

Like always-what to do, how to do it

But you see, that actor
decided to play the hero

Suddenly, one day everyone remembered,

how those artists, poets, actors.
They just keep killing themselves.

And

themselves

There's going to be a play

Based on this

Who told you to?

It's going to be about the struggle of the
working people against tsarist oppression.

You still don't understand
who you're dealing with?

Here, you see this?

Now we have it, and suddenly, it's gone

Emilia's gone.

- What, didn't your mom tell you?
- I don't have a mom

And I don't have a dad. I don't
even remember what they look like.

I don't have anything

Anything at all

You're afraid of me

YOU'RE afraid of me

Of a little girl who you can't take
anything away from because people like YOU

have already taken everything.

But you are such a whore

- Kristina, if.
- Bitches in heat like you come here in throngs

You think you just spread
your legs and what?

A star.

Now Marius is screwing you, and then
someone else will, and then someone else

So go ahead and be that star.

For now

Then someone younger will come along and
they'll throw you out into the street.

That's the kind of career
we have here, kid.

And when you give Marius..
Just don't puke, OK?

What, hey, wait!
What is this?!

To the right.

Left.

Coffee, cake

You said you live alone

This is Brunhilda!

Brunhilda, this is Emilia
Please be acquainted

She's my dad's He brought her home
when they closed the university.

He said she's his second love

- What does you mom think about that?
- Mom was already dead

My father planted these apple trees
I was just a little kid

I learned how to prune them.
It's actually about time I did

Everything is overgrown
How overgrown everything is

But after the harvest

Marius, aren't you afraid?

Of what?

At the theater they're saying that
we really went overboard this time

- that they might ban the play
- When have they ever said anything else?

When we have a drink after the play, it's all
"Marius, here at the theater we're like a family,

we're like a fist that can strike
a blow against the system"

But when the time comes to do
something, no one's there

And then Korsakas is like, "Marius, you
have to learn to make compromises"

I can't I can't I don't know how

When they came for my father, they
gave us a few minutes to say goodbye.

He kneeled down next
to me and said,

"Son, now everyone's going to tell you that
I'm a criminal, an enemy of the people

Everyone will lie They'll lie shamelessly, to the
entire world And the entire world will believe it

But not you"

And then they took him away

I never learned to live
with a full stomach

I never learned.

And you never will

That's enough lying around

Get up!

Now you're going to prove it to me
What, are you scared?

Darius! Darius!

Darius.

Help!

Those actors they just
keep killing themselves

So what are you doing?
What are you doing?

- What am I doing?
- I'm asking you

What are you doing, Leon?

We don't work like that

We haven't worked like that in a long time. It's not
1951. Do you understand what I'm saying to you?

You asked if they're digging stuff up
on you, and well, my dear, they are

And they're digging deep

I don't know what you're up to, and to
tell you the truth, I don't want to know

If you're drowning, then drown on your own.
Got it? On your own

You shouldn't have strung that kid up

And you know what the
most important thing is in all this?

To stay alive

To survive

They always let us in to
watch the dress rehearsal

Madam, you misunderstood

Go look for those madams
of yours in America

- Ma'am, can students get in?
- No! The authorities said no

So what kind of authorities are they?
Afraid of the voice of the people?

Madam, we're not afraid
of authorities like that.

Not afraid. When you freeze your rear end
off in Siberia, then you'll be afraid

They're not afraid.

They're not letting people in the theater

They're afraid that people
will find out what they're banning

Did you see?

- Did you see who came to the rehearsal?
- Who?

I guarantee it -they're
going to ban our play.

Julius,

what are you worried about? You're a
communist-nothing will happen to you.

You can always say that I threatened
you, that you had no choice

And a drunken soldier brought
a girl to the stable

where his friends were making merry

and gave her vodka
all night, until sunrise

The earth filled with terrible guilt

Moonflowers, stinging nettle and creeping
thistles sprouted up in an ugly place

And the girl lay there,

no longer calling on God for help

And the people didn't see her
for three days and three nights

First you will destroy love, because that
is the connection that is hardest to break

And after renouncing your friends and family
loving no one and detesting everything

- So, are you ready?
- My stomach is full of butterflies

Butterflies?

Butterflies are good Cockroaches
would be bad, but butterflies are good

Emilia, you're on

You will go to look for a place for
your grave, the beginning of true life

Emilia

Emilia

Emilia

I have come to greet you,
as your betrothed

I know you have not
yet made a vow to me

but you are already able
to accept my gifts.

From overseas?

And what is wrong with your own village,
which is not adorned by foreign beauty

Where plain rue nestles to the ground,
and intoxicates our hearts oh, so sweetly

Can a gift take the place
of a beating heart?

I will drink water from my own well"

So.

The director has shown
all of his visions

Indeed, we have a remarkably artistic picture
of the struggle of the people against tsarism

Go ahead, comrades Please

Well

I would like to say that
I liked the play.

But I did not like the
performance at all

Yes, but we all have to admit
that this is a working version

Maybe I could see a few
small mistakes too

But you have to agree that

Well, we can always revise it. We can always
adjust something, solve the nuances, problems.

And what am I supposed to make of
the excessive use of blood in the play?

Especially when the blood is not being
portrayed as that of a sacrifice

It is the symbol not of blood that
was shed in the fight for something

but of senseless cruelty

Crime

And for some reason, this crime is directly
identified with the red flag of communism

Comrade Korsakas,
I want to ask you,

In the name of what is this
play being staged, huh?

We have to educate the people according to
the concept of internationalism, correct?

And what is this?

This is. This is blatant nationalism

Comrade Simkus, you're exaggerating
Exaggerating!

Yes, you would have to be completely blind and
deaf to not understand what the play is about.

In my opinion that is,
in our opinion

this is clearly the unenviable work
of a young, ideologically immature

artist who is still completely
undeveloped in terms of creativity

One who has obviously succumbed to the influence
of anti-Soviets and various dissidents

So what's the point of this whole carnival?
You condemned everything In advance

Those artists are sensitive. Let's forgive
him for losing his temper like that.

I can change a few scenes I can.
I can revise some nuances

That's exactly what
I'm saying, Marius!

See, I can feel that we're
about to reach a compromise.

That compromise, it's haunting me.
Compromise, Communist, Komsomol.

Are they going to ban the play?

- Komsorg, Kom..
- Marius, yes, yes.

We'll make a compromise.

We?

We

We!

We already strangled
this whole thing

We!

We killed this entire business
We killed the truth

We made ourselves some stupid hunting
trophy out of it and call it the truth.

When in fact, we're living every day,
every second, in some sort of lie.

He's going to get burned,
honest to God.

- Compromise!
- He's going to get burned

Compromise!

This entire society has rotted
because of this whole compromise

We're soaking in this swamp,
and what's keeping it going?

No, not the belief in a bright
tomorrow, not going to church. No,

not the army or security forces No! It's every decent
Lithuanian's fear of losing his cracked trough!

And what has all this made us?

Traitors We betrayed Lithuania

They laid their heads to rest in the
forest, and we betrayed them

You and I

Take that off

Take that off, you'll freeze.

Love has come perhaps for the first time
to those old blackened halls.

Don't go.

Marius, please don't go

Marius, I'm begging you

They didn't give me a choice

- This is my fault.
- No, it's not

I want to tell you

You know what they said to me?
They look me right in the eyes and say

Don't you feel a sense of
despair, meaninglessness?

Don't you think about suicide sometimes?
After all, you artists, you're always

They threaten you They're cowards
- they're more afraid than we are

What's going to happen now?

I'm not going to fell the Taiga

To Siberia

There's a theater there.

To exile

Don't be dramatic-people
have come back from there too.

A handful.

I'll come back

I promise.

Hurry up, we're about to go.

You wanted to run away
without saying goodbye

This is like a business trip

What are you lying to me for?

- Passenger, are you coming?
- Yes Just a moment.

Take care of Emilia

Which one?

Both, take care of them both

What the.?

Read it out loud, so
everyone can hear.

Soviet Lithuania is going through
a period of acute class struggle

Our theater is harboring activities
of bourgeois and nationalist elements

directed against the consolidation
of the Soviet system in our local culture"

So it's because of you, you bastard,
that they banned the play

- You denounced Marius!
- I didn't denounce anyone For the love of God!

You're a communist,
you don't believe in God

Where should I put this?

What is it?

What do you mean what?
It's blood for your play

Marius said that paint won't do

What?

Fucking blood for your fucking play

There's not going to be any play,
they banned the play!

You know what,
go shit yourself, OK?

Now you won't even be able
to take a shit in peace.

You'll be scared that
someone's watching you.

So who's the traitor? Hm?

Maybe it's you, my dear?

Not you?

No, not you

This is like a game,
let's look for the traitor.

So, maybe it's you?

- No, not you.
- Stop messing around

What's wrong?

- So maybe you're the traitor, huh?
- Go to you know where

I am

Why?

I had to.

Wait, Emilia,
please, say it isn't so

I'm begging you,
say that it wasn't you

It was me, Andrius, I wrote it

I'm begging you, say
that it wasn't you

Just lie, dammit!
Emilia, come on!

It was me

After the war, the French
used to shave fascist whores bald.

Miss, miss, miss!

They brought her in unconscious
But now she's come to

By the way, we found this
scrap of paper in her coat pocket.

It had a telephone
number on it so I.

Please, come in.

Heroism, you say.

What kind?

To rot in the forest?

Or to survive?

To stay alive

Build houses, write books

Bring up children.

That's enough lying around

Get up!

You

Know how long being a partisan lasts?

Six months.

Six fucking months!

I'd already spent
three months in the bunker

Three

And I wrote during all three months

Like a madman

And I only had three months left to live.

Three months

Now you're going
to prove it to me.

What,

Are you scared?

I'm here about the play.

Oh, right

But there won't be any play

There's no director

And no lead actress

We don't have them.

They fired the theater director!

- And the authorities banned the play
- I'm the authorities to you!

I'm not deaf

I'm just saying that
there isn't going to be any.

Now listen carefully

This is a state order, got it?

Yes, yes Of course.

Excuse me, but perhaps
you have a spare ticket?

I can't

I'm counting to three

One

But I did everything, everything!

- Two
- I betrayed everyone

I betrayed everyone, you hear me?
What else do you want from me?

And now you're
an enemy of the people

- I can't. I'm not like that
- Do it!

I can't Please.

Good boy. Leon
Good boy

There's no horror left, no fear.?

Come in. Come in, comrade, come in

We replaced the blood with water.

And of course we got rid
of all those double meanings

Right, but what about that nationalism?

No. The word "Lithuania"
was removed everywhere

And a drunken soldier
brought a girl to the stable

where his friends
were making merry

and they gave her vodka
all night, until sunrise

and then they unveiled her chastity
as the sun came up, one by one

The earth filled with terrible guilt.

Moonflowers, stinging nettle and creeping
thistles sprouted up in an ugly place

And the girl lay there

no longer calling on God for help

and the people didn't see her
for three days and three nights

And you will isolate yourself from
your friends and family

and then loving no one and detesting everything,
you will leave your village or town

to look for a place for your grave
the beginning of true life

What is she doing?

Emilia

What's going to happen now?

EMILIA!

I have come to greet
you, as your betrothed.

From overseas?

And what is wrong with your own village,
which is not adorned by foreign beauty?

I didn't want to die

Can you understand?

I didn't want to die

I betrayed them all

I betrayed them, I killed
them with these very hands!

So how does it feel
when you understand

that you've been clinging to the words of
your father's killer your entire life?

When you've read every single
line a thousand times?

When you were really just soaking
your hands in your father's blood.

How does it feel?
Huh? Huh?

Leon! Get over here!

And there is no martyr or prophet

And nothing is concealed
that will not become known

What you are doing in the dark
will be visible in the light

What you whisper in private

will be proclaimed from the roofs

And you will come back.

You will come back permanently.

Thoughts and all my being, at the source, where Your
passion and pride have begun for your near suffering.

Ceslovas!

What are you doing?

We have to, Jonas. Just look-
people are hanging on every word

So what?
Who's better off because of it? Huh?

Lithuania

- Lithuania will be better off
- There is no Lithuania.

They shot it, deported it,
drowned it in drainage canals

Jonas, I'm begging you, let's be amicable
I'll answer for it myself

Get out of my.

Poetry! It is a hymn to the
warriors and the unknown soldiers

who come to rape our mothers and sisters
leaving only blood and the seed of Satan

It is a hymn to papa Caesar, whose lucid
mind leads us into the bright distance

where we perch, free, behind bars,
sucking the foul air into our chests

as if it were the spirit of freedom, and feeding each
other lies and singing the hymn to the god of betrayal

who is soiled with the blood of white lambs

The hymn to the god of betrayal who is
soiled with the blood of white lambs

No one will understand it

Too many intricacies

They'll understand

The women in the audience
will break into tears

and the men will act
like they don't care,

but they'll cry anyway

Lithuania will be free.

And then you will realize that
the dagger which you raised

above the head of you brother
has infected your blood

That the poison that you put in
their food has paralyzed your liver

And you will rage like rabid animals until you fall
to the ground when you see the terrible mistake

and the Earth will not take you in

You cannot protect yourselves, leaders,
by hiding behind borders and guards

When you lose vital contact with your brothers
you will lose flexibility in your joints

your cooling blood will
stop feeding your brain

and you will start to rot like a
fish or a state-from the head down

Everyone! Look!

The crown It shines,
dazzles, intoxicates

I despised the crown and
hungered for it as salvation

I will look again to make
sure it is not bloody

It seems not.

And what is within it?

Justice?

God?

There is no God,
nor is there justice

So what, then? Rubies, gold?
Or the power of control?

I wanted to challenge death

But I summoned
With all my heart, I summoned life.

Be free, oh Lithuania, for ever and ever
And be just and good to all.

Bravo! Bravo!

Emilia, Emilia

I'm sorry, I had no choice.
I love the theater too much

Young lady, where are we off to?

- To Novosibirsk.
- Oh! Not Sochi?

No. I need to go to Novosibirsk

So that means Moscow

You'll go to Moscow
and switch trains there.

Oh, love.

When everything is frozen
through the iron frost

There are always those
who come alone

They scratch their hands through
the ice until they feel the pain

They punch a hole, so that
the others could bathe

Everything is burned,
they walk through the ashes

There are always
those who come alone

Hands have burned in the
fire a thousand times

Until a well is dug, so that
others may drink from it

Are you the One?

The one with the injured hands

Are you the One?

The one with the injured hands

Pain will flow as honey, there
where we are reborn to seek hope

Blood will flow as honey, there while
we are alive, again will seek new hope
