Well, that's just great. lt's me who has to leave!

You throw me off my land!

No, l don't! What about the land? The people?

l put my life into that village

- Sasha, this isn't the place for that - lt's the place l was given

Now look here

all the farmers already signed off on it

So what?

You have to sign too

We understand you. But you have to understand us

You have no rights to this land

Your papers were not registered. Not in proper way.

- You used to say it's not a problem. - Now it is.

You'll get the compensation which is actually a big favour

We had a special meeting to discuss this, all ofus

So what are you waiting for! Take it while you can!

You get moneyfor nothing! What else do you want?

We'll pay off your credit. We'll return your downpayment

Take it and go, Sasha

lt happens now all around here. lt's nobody'sfault

lt's not our fault, and it's not your fault, Sasha

Forget it, guys, l'm not sorry at all

To be honest, l'm glad

We've tried everything, but l can see nothing's working

l moved here from the city forwhat? For a bullshit

Always asking and begging

When l need a harvester you never give me one

Fine, l don't need your harverster

Thing is, we're doing things nobody needs!

300 roubles l pay to myworkers!

Would you work your ass off for 300 roubles?

For God's sake, what are we talking about?

What should l fight for?

Nobody needsthis farm to go on

What about the winter?

Sasha, it's all true you say. you understand everything

So go ahead, sign the papers,

and we'll right away apply the demand on your compensation!

A LONGAND HAPPY LlFE

What are you staring at?

Get the buckets and run to the river!

Girls, go home, quickly, get more buckets!

Girls, go home, quickly, get more buckets!

You two, grab these buckets

You idiot, stay out ofthe fire! You'll catch on fire!

Quick, form a chain!

Hurry up!

Sasha, you stink ofsmoke

The neighbour's housewas on fire

You camefrom a fire, why you're freezing

l'm going to take my compensation and get the fuck out of here

l was looking at flats for sale on Kuybyshev Street

They only have two left in building five: numberfive and twelve, and that's it

Aretheythe ones on the ground floor?

With you, l can live on the ground floor

So then, Denis Sergeyevich got in a real panic

Really?

That's good

They've already earmarked money from the fund forthe land

We have to include it in the plan

-The development plan? - The so called development plan

Nowthey have to bribe you, as Denis put it

But they'll makethe money back anyway

They were complaining thatwe're not profitable

So they'rewelcometo pay

Since it's betterwithout us

Sasha, soon you'll live the life you deserve

You'll move to the city You'll start a normal business

Yet we still have to harvest the potatoes anyway

l don't want to move with no money

There's still so much work...

Shit, if l'd knew l'd never take this farm

Well, you met me here

Aah, so that's what it's all for!

OKthen

Now they are all scared of me, these department bitches

Even Denis Sergeyevich

l'll finish the harvest soon. The snow falls, l'm off to the city

- Where is your watch, lost it? - Gave it as a gift.

That's it, money cost you no labour

You don'tfucking valuethem

Why, l do

Whatever, it's all bullshit. Let's go, l have the harvest waiting

Look, your diggers are already here, can smell their lord master coming

You're a master yourself

l'm not a master! You're the master

No, Volodya, you'rethe master. Thank you forthe lift

We're stacking potatoes into piles right now... the ones for storage

Should we save some potatoes for seeding?

- How much we keep for seeding? - Don't keep itfor seeding for now

l'll tell you after l get back from town

Still calculates something

Fuck him, l don't care

Well, Sasha! l can congratulate you

The compensation for you is approved

- But? - But...

You have to move from the land beforethefirst snow

Once you sign the papers, the agreementswill go into effect

Right, so where arethe papers?

We'll draw up the papers, don't worry about it

The general decision has already been made

So congratulations!

Here, read this for now

Miss, which part do l have to read?

Help me out

Let's see... right, here...

And here...

lt's what you should read

Our farm is shutting down

l didn't want to tell you until l beat compensation out of them

Now, l'm telling you: we're driven off this land

We have no legal right for it anymore, we are squatting here

Sowe have to end with it all

We'll harvest and sell the potatoes

l've got fine buyers

The storage is to be dismantled

We'll discussthe details later

The most important ofall isthat everyone gets money...

Asmall victory for us all

So l congratulate you

lt could be much worse for us considering the timeswe're in

No, we're not leaving anything!

lt's not up to us anymore

They didn't even think of us! What are we supposed to do?

Peoplejust want to keep working

- What arewe supposed to do? - We are to fight!

We have until thefirst snow to finish the harvest

ltwas either close it down or close it down with compensation

That was our only choice.

ltwas a done deal What do you proposeto fight?

- Let'sfight!

-They'll buy us up, they'll eat us alive, Sasha

You're leaving, but we're still here

ls this supposed to be fair? Are you the master orwhat?

They have official documents- how do you propose we fightthat?

Let's fight! Let'sfight! -This is our land!

-We'll keep working and not give in and we'll prove that we can do it!

-Stand up for ourselves!

So you saywe should fight? - Ofcourse!

Exactly!

-They can'tjust marry us off without our consent!

When l leased the farm l married you off without your consent too

but our marriage didn't really work out

- l enjoyed working with all ofyou!

When wewere starting out, we had a lot ofideals

And l still thinkthat our business plan

forthis land was realistic: realistic and promising

- So what are you talking about? What compensation?

Today we have compensation, but what about tomorrow?

What are we supposed to do, sell ourbodies?

We don't need their compensation!

- We have to fight! l vote for self-defence

-That's ok, we were all in the army - What army?Are you insane?

-They'll eat us alive, the bastards! We'll meetthem byforce!

and any scumbag that tries to come nearwill eat lead

and any scumbag that tries to come nearwill eat lead

- We'll takethis to the district council! They don't havethe rightto shut us down!

This is ourfarm, and we're not going to abandon you

We'll shut down their highway... they'll fucking choke on it!

Guys, whatweapons do we have? We're all hunters here!

l thinkwe shouldjust split up, and some ofus should

go back to the harvest

and some should guard the farm,

and some should work on the equipment, fix it up

Am l right? -Yeah!

And you can concentrate on your chicken coops

We wanted the chicken coops, right? They won't even dare step foot here!

Am l right, people? -That's right!

- We have the people; we have the land

- We shall work hard, - We'll fix up the equipment!

- We're not giving up the land, it's our land!

- We'll take up arms to defend it! - Don't you worry, there are plenty ofus!

- Don't give us up, Sasha!

Anna?

No, l'm not sad

No, you don't have to come over

Anna, it's...

Anna, it'sjust...

Yes, we'll move to KuybyshevStreet you and l, yes...

Sowhat, l'm rich now

He's signing the same agreement as you, forhis Oktyabrsky farm

- Yeah? - Yes, Sasha, take a seat

They're giving out cash

Things have happened since we...

Sort of... sort ofa mini-revolution

Sure, l don't mean revolution

Just my people decided they really want to...

You know, really want to get to work

Sasha, the decision has already been made

l know, but they're like kids! Happy and understanding nothing

Aren't you worried about what will happen to them?

That's not our problem!

That's not our domain anyway- we're in charge ofland here!

And it's not your problem either. You already said yes!

l know

- So, l mean, now l just wait? - Justwait

The fund has already issued the money. You just have to sign

One copyfor us, one copyfor you, and you can take the money!

ls that so bad? l thinkthat's pretty good

Yeah, pretty good, right

Actually, l'm turning down the offer

What am l supposed to do in this situation?

Got to at least cool offthem

How about this: screw the compensation, l'm staying

How about this, Sasha

Why don't you go, take a walk somewhere,

think about it - but think carefully, and then come back

Becausewe're not going to change the decision

We can always send the money back. You understand?

l've thought about it. l'm not coming back

l'm busywith the farm. We have... tons ofwork...

And we have to get readyforthe winter

- Sasha, hello, lovelyto see you here - Here on business

l thought you wanted to consultwith me

Well, get yourselfa consultation room,

l'll be happyto consultwith you all day

lndividually

How about it?

Unfortunately, l have to liquidate the Oktyabrsky farm today...

l saw him, he's inside

Do you know what just you did?

You've comdemned yourself

Hey!

- What the hell are you doing up there? - l'm standing watch!

Hey guys!

Look, Sasha, we got an engine

Where from?

Found it in Kozhruchey

And it can work

Good

Hey!

Whose rifle isthis?

l've taken it from him, so he doesn't go shooting things

lt's mine, l got a license for it

He's waiting for them

Look at him - see, he wants blood

Atrue hunter

You keep crying and threatening...

l didn't do it against you,Anna

So come over here, like before

Just back to the way things were

Anna! Anna

Anna

So, guys!

Shall we build the chicken coop?

Because once l get it out, we won't be able to get it back in

- Sure, of course - Excellent!

Ok... where does this go?

One, two, three, four... here

-Thank you - Listen, ladies, let's...

let Sasha through

Sasha! Go ahead!

Sasha, go ahead!

Come on, Sasha, go ahead!

What'sthe big secret? Don't want meto see what you're buying?

l'll have a pack ofnoodles... One pink soap

and a pack ofwaffles

And a Snowflake, ifit'll keep until Friday

- Grab some biscuits, l'll come overfortea

- How much? - Hundred and thirty

See, that's betterthan having towait!

Thank you

Thank you!

Assembling the chicken coop...

Assembling, not connecting...

Connecting what?

That's secured

One, two, three, four...

We should winterize it...

We need towinterize it. Use the money from the first harvest

Maybe it's good that we're starting the assembly so late?

Maybe it will work!

Be good ifit works out

Amazing...

And those idiots were planning on coming here

Let them come

As long as no one starts shooting

Doesn't bearthinking about

My guys are great

Greatwork. Staying strong

l didn't even knowthey had it in them

Guys!

Thank you so much

Thank you for standing strong

l really, l...

didn't even know you had it in you

l didn't help you out enough

- So, actually, l wantto help out... Sort of, any way l can

lfanyone needs the bus, then...

You're always lending the bus to someone

Sasha

About helping out

Alka's parents have a bit ofa problem

They banged up a guy... you know, a car

Gotta borrowfifteen thousand

Fifteen thousand? What kind ofcar is it?

- ls it completely totalled or something? - No, it's...

scratched up orsomething

He's not from around here,

and the car is expensive

Can you swing it?

Actually, Zhenya, l don't have that kind ofmoney right now

Let's maybe do it afterwe sell the potatoes

Well, at least the first harvest

Listen, l'm sorry, l can't do it

Sasha, they're not coming before Friday, right?

l thinkthey were planning to start on Friday

l think l'll leave the rifle with you

Zhenya is a pretty good shot - Hold this

l just really need to go to the mountainswith dad

What are you doing? Hold it down

- Where? On five

We're going fishing, actually

You know l'm the best fisherman!

So go, what's the problem?

l can't

lt's like l'm abandoning you here

- So you're abandoning us. Cancel your bloody fishing trip

You're afarmhand, not a savage

But my dad, you understand

-You know,Aliabyev,

hunting and gathering isthe mark ofa primitive world

Then l'll ask the guys or,

you know, somebodyfrom thevillage

But what if they start shooting?

Then l'm... getting kids involved. Shit

Listen. Fisherman!

Go! Go ahead, l promised

Go ahead, go, fish

- l'm sorry! You'll just have to get along without me for a time,

- and then l'll be back on watch

Put another fifteen thousand in

Don't ask mewhy,just include fifteen thousand!

Thank you, Volodya, you really saved my neck

When do you need it back?

You can pay it back when you get your compensation

Sasha, theywant to see you in the office right away

You know, Anna, looks like my guys made a different decision

What guys?

You know, my colleagues, the villagers

What did they decide?

You know, we're doing you afavour by giving you anything at all

You don't haveto give us anything, we're staying

l mean, the people want to stay. Sowe can keep the thing we started

We have huge plans. We haven't done much, but we have plans

The district will see returns

What are you implying?

l'm not implying anything, l'm just saying...

oncewe get everything working, we have a profitable farm,

we'll be creatingjobs, and everything will be great

We can organize rural tourism. After all, we have the road

You wantto organize rural tourism?

What does that haveto do with you?

What did you say in the application - poultryfarming?

And on September 5th you rememberwhat you said?

That you were fed up, that you didn't want any ofit

Are you in your right mind? - l'm perfectlyfine!

My guys decided, and that'sthat

l'm not leaving

What do you mean, you're not leaving? We'll take you to court

Fine. Take me to court

Great, we'll take you to court, then

You're doing the rightthing, Sasha

Volodya, l'll pay you back without their... stolen money

You know me, l'm good for it, l'll pay it back withoutthem

Just keep thetrack on your score

Keep your people in strain

This social stuffis your chance, atrump card in this game

You can raise the price really high Just don't miss a right timeto stop

What's going on? You're sleepwalking

l said you'd get it ready on time, right?

Move it, move it! l'm in a hurry! Guys, do you not getthis?

- l told you yesterday that l'd be in a hurry

Why put them here? How are you going to load it?

l don't like riding with you, Volodya, when you're on berries sale

Why, something wrong with me before the sale?

There's nothing wrong with you - it's yourvodka

Keeps clanking, l can'ttake it

l just can'ttakethe clanking. Pull up here

- You're all jittery, Sasha

What?Are they coming?

Here

What'sthis?

Fifteen thousand. ls this ok? Will it be enough?

Sasha, l don't even know what to say

-You're a saviour! -That's it

We should leave the ceiling alone -You think so?

Zhenya, we haveto do thefloor, but we can leavethe ceiling

- Sasha said not to botherwith it -The roofwill hold

Then we haveto calculate

how many cubic feet oflumber...

Zhenya, what cubic feet? We don't need anything at all

We just have to flip these ones, the undamaged ones, over;

We just have to flip these ones, the undamaged ones, over;

and the ones that are rotted through - the logs, the beams-

we can use the lumber from another section

Yeah, just make one section out oftwo, that's it

What did Sasha say?

Just that - we'll make one section out oftwo

Ok then, that'swhatwe'll do

That's what we'll do

Then we have to see which ones are undamaged

and which ones are rotted through.

Take it all up We'll have totake it apart

Toss the rotted stuff, let the good ones dry and...

laythem down

- Right, so how many pigs can fit in here?

Well, in the Soviettimes, herewas athousand head

-Athousand? Fine enough -Wait- now you're doing pigs?

-Yeah, sure

-This'll need major repairs

Asolid flooring to lay down

Probably to change a thousand metres ofwiring

Light fixtures, wall outlets... tons of work here!

l think we should start with three hundred head

Zhenya, three hundred is the bare minimum

What did you think: buy a thousand and go bankrupt?

- What about the development?

The development is fine: we'll built a small meat factory,

and our own store, no problem

Bitches

Damn it, Sasha, it was a mess

- We didn't tell them a thing - They kept implying shit...

Camewith the police -

the cop waswaving his gun, targeting us... actually

l think he was off-duty

because ifhe'd been on duty how could he target us?

Calm down

They have no right to do anything until l sign

- Sasha, l wanted to talk to you about further developments

l finished thetractor

That's great!

- Give me my share ofthe compensation

When you divide it up for everyone,

give me what you think is fair, what you think l deserve

l'm not taking the compensation Why would you think that?

Well, l demand my share

You don't have a share because other partners are against it

Yeah?

Then l'm out

Fine

We'll call a meeting

Bythe time you call a meeting,

all the property will be confiscated

That'swhy l propose, Sasha, let's do it amicably:

l takethetractor, and weforget about it

-What a bastard

Serezhkawas always rotten

- He's afucking scumbag

No, he's good set ofhands... just he's rotten

Ok, whatever

it'sjust atractor

Sasha, it's all for good. People like Seryozhka are shit

Nowthey help us purging from them

Ok, forget Serezhka

We had a tractor, and now it's gone

He did the right thing

- l don't know how to explain to you that you're wrong

You're loud, theyjust fell asleep.

- But you know you're wrong - No, l don't

Maybe l am wrong... But all ofyou are putting Sasha in a mess!

You knowwhen a cottage town Was built of Kolva river,

the agronomist told them of law that they break building by shore

They camewith the cops and said We'll burn you to the ground.

We've got the river to put thefire out.

you see, Kolva river, water protection zone

you see, Kolva river, water protection zone

Just understand: this farm

Will be our children's bread

He did the right thing

He did what we should all do- made a tough decision

Sasha onlythinks about himself

You don't, but Sasha does

You told me: Sasha is greedy,

Sasha never gives anything to anybody,

Sasha is a Jew;

Sasha is a Jew;

doesn't let anyone into his house;

he's seeing the chick from the council,

and they probablyfixed all this up, you said

You told me a long time ago: that blondie keeps coming over,

you wait and see,Alka, you said, they'll sell us all down the river

-Yourwords, l remember - l did

-Yes, you did - Ofcourse l did

But l didn't thinkwe'd haveto lose the farm because ofthat

Well, try

Well, try

Try and explain

Anyway, tomorrow is a new day

Well, that does explain everything

Hey, Zhenya, hi there!

l broughtAliabyev's rifle, l can'twait for him,

tonight l'm going away, to Karelia Mind giving itto him?

What happened, Zhenya?

- Why the hell are you going to Karelia? - Sasha, it'sjust...

MyAlka found ajob.

lt's an chance, a lumber camp, they almost never hire here

But l got in

Why not stay on the farm?

lt's my last chance to hire, soon winter is coming

and how can l help you, why must l help you?

- Plus, l must earn somewhere to pay you backthe 15,000

- Give the rifle to Alyabyev, Sasha

- Come up here! Belotsky -Anatoly

- See, l really don't wantto leave

And the people are behind me

Sasha, what do you want me to say?

They'll clear yourcredit and give you compensation too

l don'twant my credit cleared! l don't need their compensation

-You tell me, may l stay on the land? - Not on this land

They have other plans for this land

Do you know the people who buy it?

- Why do you care? - You knowwhy l care

Let's go see the buyers, you and l, let's talkto them

Maybe l can pay them rent?

lt's mewho buysthis land

What are you looking at?

l'm the one

How about we do it this way: l'll keep the poultry, pay rent

l'll be paying you, Volodya

l'll get you a goose for Christmas, l'm building a coop right now

- Sasha!

Listen, chap, you should go

What can l do to help?

l'm just gonna hide in the mountains! Or maybe...

You should hide in the mountains, and l'll stay and talkto them for you

What are we supposed to do, Sasha?

We can't shoot them, they'll shoot us dead.

We shouldn't fightthem, it'll make things onlyworse

And no point killing them personally, because it's somebody,

it's somebody else... sitting up there...

in St. Petersburg, orfarther away... in Murmansk...

They have the law on their side, and we're breaking the law

Sasha!
