BLOODSHED AT THE WEDDING

Based on true events, by the play of Vojdan Cernodrinski.

Directed by Trajce Popov

Spase?

Cveta!

Wait!

I want some water.

Let's sit under the shadow.

I'm scared, they're shooting across the swamp again.

Bey is shooting on impaled melons.

He has spare time while others are working for him.

Let me talk to your father. Harvest will be over, weddings are about to start.

He doesn't see us as adults.

Still, weddings are coming.

There, it must me close.

Don't listen! We came here to bend our backs.

Where to? Duko, I'm talking to you!

They are judging someone again.

Who is? - Osman Bey's people.

Can you hear? Our man is dying there.

Look in front of you. You can step on a snake.

You're scared of me too?

There's no reason, Orhan.

There's no reason for me to be betrayed.

Everyone with a fez is same as Bey to you.

Stop it! There's no traitors here. You talk to much, godfather.

He's afraid that I'll betray him.

It's more rest in the harvest. Bowed heads won't be cut.

You were shot at?

They shot bad! If they could, I'd be lying in a swamp like a dead fish.

If they find you among us, we'll lie there too.

I don't need you to hide me. I want water.

Thank you for the water. Goodbye.

You're wounded. You won't make it alone.

Duko, come back. Bey knows how many of us is in the harvest.

If they find him here, they'll kill him.

He's leaving blood. He won't escape easily from Arslan.

Get back to sickles, I'll help him.

Go back, they don't know that I'm here.

Take it, dress his wound softly.

Cveta!

Sing like nothing happened!

Mother's beautiful boy...

Why are they chasing you?

I wanted to go in into Bey's harem.

Among women?

Kamen is my name.

Do I look like someone who will die for someone else woman?

Maybe this is the wrong way?

I that harem 5 weeks ago, by force has been brought

my sister.

You're welcoming me with singing?

You're grateful for taking bread from my field?

On you knees peasants! On your knees!

Like in your barn with icons. - Leave them!

Where did you hide them?

Or was I chasing one of you?

Maybe it's you?

Or you?

Or you? Huh?

We don't know who are you looking for.

You know! I know you do!

No one came here.

And you didn't see anyone?

No one is watching anyone here Beg effendi.

We are harvesters, not dog trails.

You are Turk! Why aren't you speaking turkish?

I want everyone to know what am I saying.

So tomorrow no one can say I'm a traitor.

I asked where is it!

Stay still! Think about a runaway!

You're keeping me here so he can run away further?

Release Arslan. Bring him to me dead or alive!

There...

What's your name brother? - Spase.

If I stay alive, I won't forget.

Goodbye.

Show him Heriman, show him!

Get him!

Kill him, kill him!

Wind. Our Lord, water this soil.

Rain. People to bring you what ever you want, our Lord.

Go away, among other women, so he can't see you.

What's your name? - Cveta.

Young name, for the spring. And the dry will wither you.

I'm used to. We're used to.

We're born at the harvest.

I know where are you born, and I know who should live where.

Cveta... Real spring name.

Wash your face, honest Bey.

She's your daughter is it? - She's mine.

She's a child, Bey. - She's not a child!

She's young.

What does he want?

I wish him rock on his head and bed in the ground!

He knows that that's the way to check the knife, before slaughtering.

Bring water.

I'm thirsty.

Your mother is scared for you? Are you scared?

And if I open the door of my house for you?

I was raised on matting. I'll live what ever is my destiny.

Women's destiny always depends on others.

You didn't submit? You know what I want to say.

Jasar! Get ready!

And we stay silent. Me, you, everyone! What kind of people are we?

I'm not silent, my son. You just can't hear me screaming.

Bend over your bundle.

If we hadn't bundle, Bey wouldn't be above our heads with whip!

This dog was killed by another dog!

Up there is your man is it?

It's not Spase's fault, he's in the mountain!

Spase?

Don't be dishonest Bey, it's not our fault.

Everyone pays for something these days.

I with this, and you... Take her to harem!

Stay here, he'll shoot a child! - Let me go!

No Bey, leave the child. Shoot me! Slaughter me!

Not the child, no!

Listen to me peasants! I'm not a beast!

Stay where you are, and nothing will happen to the child.

Release my daughter, she's a child too.

Aznan, bring me my horse! What are you waiting for? You want to bear this on your soul?

Cveta! Cveta!

Get back!

Cveta! Cveta! Cveta!

Peasants, God damn you!

Damn you!

Thousand years of slavery is not enough for you?

Damn... Damn you! - Godfather, godfather...

Tell Selim to come to Bey at once.

He's praying. Wait here. - Alright.

Selim effendi, Osman beg is calling you.

For anything good, or is it bad as usual?

He'll tell you.

Because of the girl, peasants can attack the harem.

Couldn't you refrain?

If I could, I would.

That's why I called you.

They'll attack, I know it. I'm sure!

Our indigent people are with them.

Can you bring your dervishes tonight to defend harem?

They are just dervishes, not soldiers.

They are Sultans men, like you and me.

How should I tell them that?

With rattling.

With rattling? I don't understand.

That's for them, and for me?

What do you want Selim?

Good night, I wish you good sleep.

Stop! Sejh Rami baba doesn't love me? Is he?

He only loves the Prophet. Dervishes are listening to me.

Stay well!

Hey, housekeeper!

Uncle Josif! Open, uncle Josif.

Open, it's me, Spase.

Open it.

Good evening.

What happened with a runaway?

I don't know. Let's hope for the best.

You're a herbalist uncle Josif, help the dog. - Wolf?

No, not wolf. Wound are from Beys dog.

That Bey will see.

Come here Hariman.

You came here because of the icon?

And to what God should I pray after disaster?

Bey took Cveta. - Cveta!

Cveta was taken? With all of you there?

With all of those sickles?

They had guns. That's why are Mojso and Duko collecting villagers.

We are waiting them here.

Not here in the barn, they should go to harem, and we should go with them!

And you with us.

Maybe you'll trust me more if I change my religion?

No one is asking that from you.

If they found out that you're with us their revenge will be greater for you

then for us..

I alone am not trouble for them. They're afraid of all of us together.

Because... - Why?

Bey won't be easy to fight with the whole village.

We're not together. No one came except you.

Village is afraid of Bey.

They don't believe that we can do anything.

Then, we're alone brothers!

We'll sell the goat cheap, Mojso. - We'll complain to the judge.

You still believe that there's justice for you!

You're hoping that the judge will join you?

He's spilling our blood, and we're on our knees!

What else can we do?

Spase, wait!

What about us?

He'll come back when they start shooting.

If he comes back.

Orhan is not here anymore? - He went to get guys.

With them or in front of them?

You're afraid that Bey bought his soul?

Sometimes we're afraid of our shadow.

Help us, if the village rises we might do something.

I'm not a Komita, Mojso. I have a house full of children.

They all wait food from this hand.

Eftim, where all go, we go.

If everyone is going to the grave, I'm going too.

I'm working here in secrecy from Turks, and I'm going blind slowly.

And what am I drawing? Saints. And those saints have our faces.

Plowmen, harvesters. Maybe you're the Saint George, Eftim.

And why? Because my whole life Lord taught me that among us, enslaved,

his sons are born!

Alright

If others don't cancel,

We're going.

Yes, That's it Eftim!

If pries Damjan calls them, they'll come.

And you, uncle Josif?

I'm already blind, I'll be on your way.

Let's hurry up brothers!

Lord, be with them.

They are frolicking. Maybe there’s no guards in the yard.

Bey didn't forget that he took our girl.

He'll be careful. - We'll be quiet.

Stay here. Stop Hariman from barking.

Help me. Alright.

Is it pretty?

I don't understand. Who? - The night, the moon.

Cheer up. You are now Beys fourth wife.

You'll live rich.

You're sad because of that hungry village?

Silk! Jewelry!

You're refusing? - Let me go.

My life is there where are my parents.

Get dressed, you're here.

And you'll stay here!

I'm a peasant, daughter of a poor man. Even if you kill me, I'll still be that!

Get those rags off of you! - Never, never!

Why didn't you stay where I left you?

I'll help you to change clothes!

Wait! Wait! - Let me go!

Wait, don't scream! - Let me go!

Let me go! - Hold on, peasant!

Let me go!

Damn you, damn you!

Damn you! - Help! Help! Help!

Jasar, Ramo, what is going on?

Someone got in the harem, effendi - Search for him, find him!

I'm late. - They found us, it's too many of them.

Where is Hariman? - He's here. - He'll follow us.

Our people are guarding Bey. They're paid, are they Rami baba?

You can't buy dervish with gold. Selim said that peasant will burn tekas too.

It's possible.

Our faith is in Prophets hands - That's right, what will happen now?

We can shorten the legs of the empire.

Banging. It's not good. God, save us. - Don't be a bad luck, priest is calling us.

If it's not good we'll run away. - Don't go. - I will go.

I'm not old, I'm not walking with a cane.

Spase! Duko!

Turk?

Why is unbaptized coming here? What's with them

They tried to kill one of Beys man.

Where are they now? - At my place.

Mojso, one man will go to town to ask for consuls help.

Who will go? - You will. - Now? Tonight?

On every market day you go to see Russian consul.

You're his man. That's his present for evil times.

Take my horse. Go now.

I prefer to be here with you. - You will, when you come back.

Alright...

You all know what happened today.

And you're still hiding in the barns, covering your heads with ashes.

Bey wants that exactly!

That's why I invited you!

Gentleman, I'm your shepherd, I'll teach you some of God's wisdom.

Grab whatever you can. Pitchforks, axes. Old men, go away. That's right!

On earth you need thieves, not saints!

Come on, pries Damjan said that old men should go away.

Let them go away, and priest with them.

Kico, bring the sticks.

We'll chase badgers to their holes. That's right.

Lord, be with us. - Lord, be with us...

Let's go brothers! - Don't!

Lord, be with us. - Lord, be with us...

Women, take off your kerchiefs and let's pray for our husbands!

Lord, be with them. Lord, be with them.

Lord, help them.

Lord, be with us. Lord, be with us.

Are you sure that they're coming here?

There's no doubt Bey effendi. They all have torches in their hands.

Find Selim, as fast as you can! - Yes, lord.

Men! Men!

Men, I'll lead you. Lord is with me.

Get this crazy old man out of here.

Where do you want to lead us, uncle Josif?

Where Lord have showed!

What about icon?

He'll put peasants in doubt, they believe that he's the man of the God.

Lead us then, father Josif.

Our salvation is in our sacrifice. Saint is on fire, he'll be our power!

I know how to make the peasant to say that she came to you by herself.

Price?

Later, Bey.

You can get dressed now.

What is this?

Villagers, they'll burn the harem.

We're locked, we are going to burn.

You Thessalonikian stay if you want. I will save myself or I will burn!

You can burn without me, I'm young. - Slave is slave, young or old!

Then you'll all burn!

No! No, stop!

Bey! Then you will burn with us!

Put down the lamp, we can all burn from its flame.

What is it? Why are you screaming? - I don't want to burn, Bey.

Bey!

It seem that you're the only one who's not happy because of them!

Save me, Bey!

She will save you. If she say that she came her with her own will.

Never!

Think about it. If you don't want blood from many people on your hands.

Look in the yard!

My brother, Kamen!

Your brother? That's even better.

What do you want from him? He's not fault for anything.

He tried to enter in harem!

Leave him alone!

I'll let him go if... I already told you how he can be saved.

Both him and you - Never!

Then start counting dead right away! Start from that one in the yard!

They'll kill him!

Begin!

He's a tough dog, doesn't beg!

I only have him!

You too is asking me to send them back?

He's my brother...

Why did you stop?

He passed away. He's maybe dead.

Awake him! - Yes, Bey.

We need him alive!

Bey, Bey! Hear us!

The whole village came for honor! Open yourself to the Lord!

Bey, don't try to shoot us. There's too many of us.

You don't have that much guns. Release Cveta, and we will go back.

Tell them that we will blind him.

First we will blind him, then we will kill him!

You decide what is more expensive. His life or your honor.

Tell the villagers to go away! He'll die!

I prefer to see her in fire then as his wife!

It was written for her... - No one read what was written.

We are harvesters, we know. You harvest like you sow.

You're harvesters. Why shouldn't fate be scared from your sickles?

Brothers, it's the voice from the Lord.

Nightingales sing all the time so he don't know when it's night

and when it's day, we'll blind them with burning needle.

We came to this world to save, and to die.

Villagers!

That's Cveta.

Quiet brothers!

Villagers, your efforts to save me are in vain!

Stop!

I came here without anyone’s fault. And I'm not going back to the village.

That dog! He forced her!

Cveta, listen to me! It's me, Spase.

Tell everyone that you were taken!

Cveta! Tell them!

Leave villagers! I already said!

I'm sorry for thinking only about me.

Now I'll tell you my price.

I owe you.

Lord turn his back on us.

Are you with him or with us?

Eternal darkness has come.

Can you see me, uncle Josif?

It's all dark sonny, you too.

He's blind!

Come on uncle, let's go to the village.

Villagers, who wants to stay, can stay.

Now I'll be your leader. That's right.

Cross yourselves and follow me. Violence has only one brother. Violence!

I don't think they're asleep. Be careful.

Bring her, it's time.

They'll wait you in the ambush.

I don't see other way.

I'm leaving harem in your hands. Guard it well.

It doesn't depend on my hands. Look they're empty.

Did you promised me sister this one?

Are you blackmailing me? - I just want promised, Bey.

Give me.

Come on.

Get up there!

Your services are expensive, Selim.

It wasn't expensive last night. You made a promise.

Alright, when I come back, I'll keep it. - Very well, I'll wait you Bey.

Why did you try to save me?

You know that no one got away from here.

Smear his wounds. I'm not like Bey. - Are you going to release him?

I'll put my head under Beys revenge.

I know what you want. I'll pay.

I don't want to be saved with your honor.

My honor doesn't belong to you or me.

I'm Beys wife, Kamen.

Saddled horse is mine.

Only he can take your brother to freedom.

Let me go! - Let her go, you dog!

Thief from the swamp! - They captured him.

Stay here. Keep dervish on gunpoint.

Don't be scared, we're alone. My dervishes are sleeping in the barn.

Dog! The most disgusting dog among all dogs!

You forgot about the burning needle!

I won't forget it as long as I'm alive. Or you and Bey!

Needle is still burning. - Dog!

Bey has left in the city with the girl. What is she to you?

My sister. Spase is my friend. - I'll help you.

We'll try by ourselves. You and your sister save yourselves.

You'll need it. I'm used to using knife.

Faster! City is far.

No one will follow us there with fire and threats.

Clear the way!

Don't shoot!

Your bother is locked in harem! If I die, he'll be blind.

You pray to your good we will pray to ours with pitchforks and axes!

Leave! You heard her last night!

We don't believe in that. We know, even without Solomons wisdom, that you took her!

Six bullets. First one is for her, other five are for you, the nearest!

Let her repeat the she wanted to come with you,

so I can both kill you with pitchforks!

He'll shoot her, we can't do it by force.

It's better to die, than to leave her people!

If anything happens to me, even your cribs will be destroyed!

Let her go. You see that you're outnumbered.

You're selling your religion. You're with them. I'll remember that.

And you want to be defended by these fools?

And Lords will was, Bey, to show our power.

And your six bullets are not enough for me!

I carry that much already in my flesh, like a wild boar!

Forward brothers, forward brothers! In death too, people are born! Forward!

Who close the road? - Come here, caus effendi.

At your service, Bey.

Clear the road from non believers. Go!

Faster! Come on!

Our last hope are consuls! That's right.

Have a nice trip, effendi.

Peasants, go back to your village. There are laws in thin country!

I couldn't save you for the third time.

Who will help me to dig his grave?

Are you watching your law? Dead men are everywhere!

Come on, follow me!

Gina, Gina!

You heard? It's maybe Gina.

If she'd know how to shoot, I'd be dead.

Speed up the horses, don't save them!

Bitola

Come in gentleman.

This is a happy day for my humble home.

In the name of His majesty, the emperor of Russia,

supported by English and French governments,

I want to hear from you, did one girl

from a village Stradilovo, a christian girl, was taken by Osman Bey?

Gentleman, I don't know anything about that.

Could it be possible that that's just a provocation?

Provocation? By whom, judge?

By the rebellions, sir.

Come in mister Judge. Pardon.

They are accusing.

You're thinking that the girl is in town?

Gentlemen, maybe she came with Bey by her own will.

We want to hear that from her.

Please gentlemen, organize a tribunal.

And who should be on trial? - Evil, sir.

Please, believe us like we believe you.

Yes, mister count.

And today, mister judge. We're counting on that.

Yes...

Goodbye, gentlemen.

We're boiling in deep kettle, Bey!

She said before the villagers that she wanted to come with me.

Will she say that in front of the consuls?

You don't want to help me? - How?

Think of something.

I'm not almighty, Bey.

So, the trial?

I'm warning you villagers, not to interfere with a tribunal.

Anyone who doesn't follow the law will be punished.

Mister consuls, we'll skip the usual formalities.

Proceed.

Cveta Kuzmanova, under oath to your god I'm asking you to tell the truth!

We know people that say that they never paid for a woman, not eve with flowers.

Does Osman Bey knows that?

What is it?

Sir, Turkey has produced many poets.

You heard about Mevlana and Fuzuli.

And about flowers, you know that France produced

Baudelaire with "Les Fleurs du mal".

Please gentlemen, have trust in this court and in myself.

That's Turkish law. They blinding him because nightingale sings all day,

our Russian father.

Continue.

Since when are you in Beys harem? - Since yesterday.

You came there by your own will?

Cveta, tell them what happened yesterday at the harvest!

He doesn't have a permission to talk! Stop him!

Duko, I thought you were lock in the harem cellar!

Gentlemen, people are witnesses for what happened yesterday.

There's Turks among them!

Be kind, and hear them.

Christians, you were at the harvest yesterday. Repeat that the girl was stolen.

Our benefactor is asking us. Was Cveta taken by force?

Yes she was, she was taken. And we were prevented to save her, with guns.

We are all witnesses, we can all swear on that.

Stop it! I'll order to kick you out from here!

You say it too.

Leave me alone!

Wasn't there enough blood spilled for these two days?

No ones blood will be spilled anymore.

Will you stay with Osman Bey?

Save me, Bey was threatening to blind my brother.

I was scared, he killed one of his wives!

You heard her, gentlemen!

Your Bey is very wicked, honorable judge.

You were at the harvest yesterday. I was, I saw it with my own eyes.

They're talking about a murder. I'll request an investigation.

Yes, but later. First, the girl must be saved.

I don't want to be with Bey, even when I'm dead!

Wait Mojso! Wait!

Your bomb can be death for the innocents.

Don't do anymore stupid things! It's enough!

You're free to go wherever you want.

Turkey really produced poets for the world.

Thank you, gentlemen.

You're looking well, Bey!

Rats in the village are feasting. Sit down, Rami baba.

Things not blessed by Allah shouldn't

be taken as a defeat.

Forget about that jilt, Bey.

I want swans song in my soul. I'm embarrassed, do you understand?

Consuls are on their side, and for their countries

this small country has great importance.

I don't need pity, I need help!

You shouldn't have cause a rebellion.

Since Karpos rebellion... - Karpos was loyal to the Sultan.

That's why our people impaled him. Like this!

Ask your dervishes to help me. Our religion commands that!

People, people. The godfather brought some music!

It can be useful!

It's my wedding, I don't want to think about Beys blood. - Think about you, Spase!

Thank you Orhan, it'll be useful.

What is it? - Please.

Why can't judge come her and ask?

Consuls want investigations about murder.

How do they know? - They have their own men.

Yes, they really have their men among our!

I don't want to see you, get lost!

I don't drink, I came for something else. - It's wedding, I don't baptize today.

It's not time for joking. Bey can come here too with his men.

Let him come, my rope is trembling with fear!

Villagers are bear handed. We're vulnerable.

Orhan, I don't keep mace under the gospel just to defend newlyweds.

I'm not worried about this under my hat, priest.

My head is not more expensive then yours.

I know without you Orhan, that he'll revenge. I don't know when.

Look, seih Rami baba.

Look, Orhan didn't lie.

He knows something! - Unless is not a trap.

Go back, or you'll have bloody wedding. - It's too late.

What is it? Are you mute?

Song brothers, and let's go where we started to.

You've done enough Bad things, Bey. Now get of the road.

You were a hero to save a friend from my harem!

And to send one of my wives to kill me!

Now clear your road!

Daughter-in-law, bring me a gun under the door step.

He wants from me to clear the road.

Come on Bey, I'm waiting for you!

Spase!

Cveta! Cveta!

Daughter!

Get them brothers! Let them pay for all those miseries!

Strike them!

Our father... I'm sorry.

Orhan!

Drink for the soul, priest.

And don't forget my children.

Your black friday has come, Bey!

We're cursed, Lord!

And now brothers? Where to?

'Only tree when its cut, it's blooming'. From the Bible.
