All language subtitles for Goluboy portret (1977).en

Winter.

I don't remember which one it was.

Snow covered the fields.

Where is that road?

The village.

The trail.

Where is it all?

The house is still the same,

only the windows are
boarded up for the winter.

And aged a little.

So after all,
I have not become younger since then.

How old was I then?

12 years old?

Yes, maybe 12.

Everything is still here.

The dry Ivy...

...the verandas.

The same chairs on the veranda.

And a portrait.

And yet...

When was it?

Claims.

Is it really with me?

What are you doing?

Nothing.

Get out of here.

Oops!

Idiot.

Where do such people come from?

You could have easily hurt me.

Got it.

And yet you wouldn't even know who
she is.

What's your name?

Alyosha.

Alyosha.

You can call me Tank.

I like it that way.

Good.

I will call you Tank.

- Are you from around here or what?
- Well...

So we've met.

Was it a nice meeting?

Yes.

Well, I'll leave.

Well, Shishko.

It's good that you can't
see it under the hair.

Listen, why do you need these sticks?

I need them.

Don't follow me.

Okay?

Whatever.

Yosh!

- What?
- How old are you?

- 12.
- Yes?

I'm 12, too.

Why are you so small?
You look like you're 10.

Or maybe I'm not growing on purpose?

How?

What for?

I need to.

"I need to."

It's like there's no other word.

Come on...

Look if there's any blood.

No, there's nothing.

Look here.

What?

Look.

Nothing here either.

Yes?

What is this?

A rail car.

Whose is it?

It's mine.

And your trail?

And my trail.

Yes?

And if you want to know

only England had
its own railways.

There are no private roads
in our country.

Even under the tsar,
all roads were state-owned.

- What?
- State-owned.

I have read about it.

Are they not crazy?

What makes you say that?

Yes, I remember the tsar.

You're the one who's crazy.

Only a crazy person would hit someone
on the head with a bulldozer like that.

Where are you going?

Yosh!

Release the cadres

to the arena.

Matador Don.

Diego Maria José Fernando,
better known by the nickname

Diego the Magnificent

is greeting the audience.

Deadly number.

The car.

Attack!

Ahhh...

And so the collective farm runs smoothly.

We'll let you get a little closer.

You...

You know the answer!

Only for one year

said the turtle.

Drop the stick.

You'd better stay away.

I've seen this.

You again?

Again, right?

Let's go.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Okay, let's go.

Your punishment will be harsh.

Good morning, my dears.

Mom!

What is it again?

- What again?
- Well, can't you paint your cute pictures

- at home, or at least in the garden?
- Ah, Valentin

there's no poetry in you.

Look at the weather today.

I just have to go out.

Monet wouldn't miss
such an opportunity.

Monet would sit at home at your age.

What does my age matter?

Everyone in the village laughs at you.

It's a usual thing that artists
have always been laughed at.

Well, yes,
they laughed when they were young

and in old age they
became respected people.

Why came that idea

of becoming an artist
to your mind in old age?

Not true.

I was fascinated by it when I was young.

I just didn't have time.

And now I decided
to become an artist.

It's never too late.

You could be one, too.

One artist is enough in this house.

Clever.

Okay, I'm off.

Have a good time.

- Work hard Valentin, work hard!
- Thank you.

Tatyana.

Where are you going?

Where are you going?

- Grandma.
- Yes?

Is Vitka's grandfather a general?

A retired general.

- Was our grandfather a general, too?
- No, our grandfather was a colonel.

You wanted to go somewhere.

Urgently.

Then go.

And what about you?

What? Nothing, go.

It's not too hard for you?

No, go ahead.

He came.

I'm here.

But what are you doing here?

Me?

Well...

Walking around.

Is that the Milky Way?

What about the Milky Way?

And what is this all about?

Development peat.

The swamps are inaccessible there.

I don't recommend walking alone.

I won't be alone.

I will be with you.

What?

Did you make this mesh?

I made the mesh by myself.

Has anyone seen a mesh like this?

I've seen it, I've seen it.

- So is this your barn?
- Well...

Then put it in order
and hang these on the wall.

Why are you so pushy?
I've never seen these on a wall before.

And you won't see any more of these.

Professor Bogaevsky.

Introduction to astronomy.

Astronomy is one of the
oldest sciences on our planet.

A man from a very early age attracted
by the distant light of stars...

...and the very first steps
of mankind on earth.

He strove to understand
the mystery of the night sky.

The science of the stars,
of celestial bodies

has come a long way.

From the first astrologers
to the first satellites.

But only these days

people were able to reach
the threshold of their star home.

But hardly anything
comprehends the art of flying,

there will immediately be
enough settlers

of our human race.

Not only ships sail,
fit for the celestial winds.

And then there are daredevils who,
without trepidation,

will go to very visible spaces.

From a letter by the astronomer Johannes
Kepler to the astronomer Galileo Galileo.

Well, do I look like an Indian?

That's okay,

it will become a good balloon.

It's a shame what's behind it.

And I know where else to get it.

Where is your beard?

Not growing yet?

I'll wait.

Why don't you have any friends?

Why?

In the village near the station.

I rarely go there in summer.

Only in winter,
when I live in a boarding school.

The guys and I are
engaged in an astronomical circle.

Yes? I do gymnastics.
Do you want me to stand on my head?

I want to.

Right now.

Look.

And oops!

A gymnast.

Don't let your head fall off.

You know,

as the satellite was launched.

I immediately wanted to go somewhere.
I wanted to fly away.

At least to Sochi.

Have you thought about flying in a balloon?

I always wanted to fly.

For as long as I can remember.

I started getting ready early
before the satellites.

- Where did you start?
- I decided to eat less to stay small,

otherwise the ballon won't rise.

Are you serious?

Quite seriously.

Jesus, you're still very small.

Yosh.

Are you going home?

No.

We could go for a ride.

On the hay.

Come on.

Hop!

Hay for the cow?

It's for her.

Why do you and Yosh live alone?

It happened that way.

What about in winter?

What's in winter?

Cows like the winter.

Sitting at home, knitting stockings.

Generally, it's bad when men
are alone.

Why are you laughing?

Am I not right?

You're not right.

Should we go?

No, we're not going.

You get in there.

Hey,

look who is with your bike.

Seems to be the collective farm in person.

Tank's on the cart.

So what?

To whom you can do nothing.

Is the bike still yours?

It's mine.

Hello.

Hello, Pavel Kuzmich.

Hello, hello.

Where is Vitka?

Vitka?

He's at the garage

with his bike.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

- Hello.
- Hello.

So look, the death of a cockroach.

Go home.

Why?

Eight.

Give all kinds of things here.

Listen.

Where have you been?
We didn't see you at home.

I just got home.

I saw it coming.

Do you understand, Vitek?

We're making something there.

What?

I can't say for sure,
but something like a satellite.

What?

What do you mean?

And a man will fly on it.

Guess what for.

He will have a man in front,
a pilot will fly.

What are you angry about?

Nothing.

You didn't show up for the watering.

Couldn't you wait?

There's nothing to be late.

I'm a girl, I'm allowed.

You're the one who have to wait.

I wonder how your
cow doesn't get lost.

She's smart.

She goes off into the woods,

and when the rain stops,
she comes out on her own.

You don't even have to search.

Why didn't you give them?

Didn't think.

And then she doesn't
go to the herd by herself.

So why to them?

Why do they call you
Mank... Tank?

Tank.

I saw it on a card.

What card?

It was one with stars on it.

But it's beautiful.

I could have given myself a female name.

It's a name for a boy, not for a girl.

Yes.

Actually, that's right.

But I like it.

- How long have you had her?
- The cow?

When Mom left...

there was only Dad and me.

First he brought a cat.

The cat isn't seen or heard.

It'll pop up somewhere.

And then he brought a calf.

The patient was given to him.

The eyes were so big and sad.

Strange.

For some reason, when an animal is in pain,

it looks like a human being.

Yes.

I once met a sheep with a broken leg.

It seems that there can't be something
more stupid than a sheep in this world.

It looked at me in such
a way that I had to cry.

Did you love your mother?

Yes, and I still do.

I don't like mine very much.

Why?

I don't know.

She often makes me angry.

If she will be not here anymore,

you will love her.

How long has yours been gone?

For a long time.

It's been five years now.

Five years.

It's almost half a lifetime.

Yes.

What are you afraid of?

Come here.

All right, I'll go upstairs and throw
the curtains out of the window for you.

- What if someone sees you?
- Nobody will.

Everyone went to look at the satellite.

- What satellite are you talking about?
- The satellite launched with bow and arrow.

It's in here.

Don't get upset.

Maybe we'll still have time to see it.

You.

Well, I think so, too.

What are you looking for?

For curtains.

For curtains?

Why do you need them?

You see, there is a boy waiting for
me downstairs who wants to fly away.

And for that you need curtains.

Silly.

Boys always want
to go somewhere.

Most of the time nothing
comes out of this venture.

This one will do.

Yes?

It's good that you believe it.

Let this one work out.

But why does he want
to fly on my curtains?

- Don't you think this is a strange idea?
- It's not.

They're not silk.

Good.

But why does he
want to fly on silk curtains?

Why not something more simple?

Grandma, because
all balloons are made of silk.

Yes?

That's reasonable.

So he's flying in
a hot air balloon.

Well,
then he really needs my silk curtains.

Get him in here.

No, I'll invite him myself.

Boy.

He sank into the night.

And his trace was gone.

How?

It looks like, yes.

He's shy.

- But how will he fly?
- Aren't you mad at me?

For what?

Because of the curtains.

No, I'm not.

- If it's for business.
- What's wrong with you?

I'm tired.

And my heart hurts.

That's why I stayed home.

You smoked a lot again.

You're getting too old.

That's it.

It's time to finish.

Summer is already ending.

What if I don't fly this summer?

Then?

Hold on.

You are told to wait.

Well...

Poor guy.

Listen,

I have a favour to ask you.

What is it?

Don't come near Tank again.

Understood?

- And then what?
- You will get horns.

Let's go.

Can you imagine?
He doesn't touch you.

You don't understand these things yet.

You'd better tell me how late it is.

Five minutes to the whistle.

Who is it?

That's Grandma.

We were walking.

It's a pleasure.

Can I?

- Am I not bothering you?
- Come on in.

Oh, thanks.

Come on in.

Yes.

Well, what a beautiful place, isn't it?

The Milky Way.

- I told you.
- What?

- Did I tell you or not?
- What? - Nothing.

Oh, grandma,
you can't smoke here.

Well...

I didn't know.

I'm sorry.

You have no idea how
much we need a grandmother.

We'd be screwed without her.

So why do we need her?

First of all, she gives us
curtains.

What?

Really?

Absolutely true.

And secondly,

I have a sewing machine.

We shall measure.

Take it.

Hold it.

Hold it, hold it!

Come on.

Go on...

Keep it that way.

20.

35.

Everyone knew that they did.

Russia.

Two masters.

About fencing.

Well...

What do you want?

So...

I want to put on a little show.

Of course, unless you refuse.

Who's here?

It's me.

Ah, it's you.

What do you want?

I'm afraid.

What are you afraid of, silly?

They are so stupid.

Who?

Vitka.

And your...

Olezhka.

They'll be fighting upstairs.

- Are you sure?
- Yes.

Watch out.

There are bolts everywhere.

Here they are, you see?

Ouch.

What's wrong with you?

My stomach.

Suddenly it hurts.

- What's the matter with you?
- Nothing. Go away.

Don't be a fool.

We need to keep things to be fair.

What are you doing?

Hold on, I'll take you.

Please.

Now.

- Look out!
- I'm going to fall!

- Careful, Tank.
- We'll get you.

- Hold on.
- I'm scared.

Be careful.

Tank, hold on.

Stronger.

Hold on tight!

No need.

Now.

Carefully!

That's it.

Why are you like that?

What have you done?

Why are you so mean to each other?

Tell me, that you will never do it again.

What you've done.

How many do you want?

Two.

Autumn.

The birch bark is probably heavy.

Yes.

It's been a long time since
you've been to the station.

Come.

We're are loading a freight train today.

The track needs to be unloaded.

Maybe I will come.

Valentin.

Why did you climb so high?

I'm picking cherries.

Will alone counts.

Yes, yes.

One in the house.

Or maybe the whole world.

Lovely!

They have already digested.

- Don't let the sparrows peck.
- No.

I love them so much.

Come on, come on, come on, come on.

I've got a spinning wheel.

You need bigger wings.

I'd kick you out with wings like that.

Hello.

Hello.

Do you want cherries?

Go ahead.

Where did you get them?

Dad picked them.

Cool.

I want to ask you something, Vitek.

- What?
- Will you come with us?

No.

You have your own business,

I have mine.

I thought you were going to.

No.

It's a pity.

What are you doing?

Nothing.

Don't follow me.

Okay?

I...

What?

I won't.

Well, that's good.

See ya.

Tank!

Tank!

Look.

I won't fall.

Just don't get your hair caught.

Now take it all off.

- Are you cold?
- No.

Maybe it's the last time
you went swimming.

What is it?

Yosh, what is it?

The next year.

Strange, it's also readable from my side.

It's one like that.

- That you can read it from both sides?
- Yes.

What would that mean?

We'll see.

Maybe nothing.

In any case, there won't be
another year like this in our lifetime.

That's Grandma.

Taniechka.

Alyosha.

Well, everything looks fine to me.

Do you like it?

Wow, great!

And you have plenty of room here.

I don't want to go anywhere.

- Listen, how do we trail it?
- I know.

We need such a net in
which balls are carried.

Only a very large one on top.
You have to put it on the balloon,

and hook it to the bottom of the basket.

That's right.

When you fly away,

- how do you get back to earth?
- I don't know yet.

Strange.

Why aren't there any manuals

for people who want
to make big balloons?

Try to publish such a guide,

and everyone will sit
in a balloon and fly.

Yes.

I am sure about that.

And I'm sure they are no fools,

because everyone wants to fly.

You know, maybe you're right.

To be honest, I'd like to fly too.

You need some kind of gas as well,
if I'm not mistaken.

That's true. How are
we going to inflate it?

What's this?

Hydrogen.

- Liquefied.
- From where?

From a camel.

Well, really, Yosh?

I got it by chance last year.

I prepared myself thoroughly.

Tell me, aren't you scared?
What if you'll fall down?

I don't know, maybe I'm scared.

I often fall in my dreams.

And when I'm dreaming,
I don't know that it's a dream.

So I'm used to it.

Did you also fly in your dreams?

Well, you're growing up.

Look, maybe we can cancel
this before it's too late and forget it.

No way.

Sweetheart.

It's even faster now.

You go.

That reminds me of a suspended road.

Hello.

Ah, hello!

What are you doing?

Come and help me! We have to finish.

Paper underneath it.

Like this.

I'm doing it on purpose.

The cigarette seems to be the same, but
I put less tobacco.

That there's less nicotine,

otherwise Grandma will get
tired if she smokes too much.

And smoking a lot is bad for you.

That's what I always hum.

Where are your parents?

In town?

They only come on Sunday.

It's just me and my grandmother.

We can't fly yet.

We don't have a net yet,
but I already know where to get one.

From where?

Company secret.

- With your permission.
- Go ahead.

What's up?

Well...

What is this portrait?

The Lady in Blue?

Yes.

This is an old portrait.

A good artist painted it.

Why did you ask?

Well...

I don't know.

Okay.

Put the key under the porch when you leave,
as always.

What's this album?

I wanted to tell you something.

I've never told someone before.

When I was little I was like Tank now.

I knew a boy and
he really wanted to fly away.

There he is.

And he flew away.

He managed to get his way.

Although at the time it was 100
times more difficult to achieve.

When people just started flying.

I only received two
letters from him in all my life,

although the second
one is not even from him.

In the first letter,

I have this picture since
we haven't seen each other.

I got married with your grandfather.

My son Valentin was born.

And he was flying.

I know it for sure

because the first letter
had only two words.

"I'm flying."

I didn't know that there
was nothing else to write.

And what's that?

Ah!

This photo has been
in the second letter.

I received it after many years.

These are his comrades.

He crashed in the Arctic.

This is his grave.

And there was another
photo in that letter.

Which one?

Here.

And who is this?

It's me.

It's a strange story,
like made up.

I have never heard it before.

Your grandma never told you?

Yes.

- Do you know why I asked about the portrait?
- Why?

This woman looks like my mother.

Is that what you think?

Yes.

No, you just forgot.

Isn't she like that at all?

No.

That kind.

Tank!

- Where are you going?
- To the station.

Let's go.

Let's go.

I'm not going.

Let's go.

No, I'm not going.

As you want.

Why didn't your gentleman come with us?

Because he's a fool.

There was a granny who
said the forest was on fire.

The firefighters have
already passed through.

Somewhere in our country.

I can smell the smoke.

- Let's go.
- Let's go.

Scared?

Pavel Kuzmich,
stop, please, stop.

Where do you want to go?

Well, stop it.

Thank you.

Where are you going? Isn't your grandmother
waiting for you?- Here's her gas.

Get up.

Let's go home.

Now, let's go.

Why are you sitting there?
You might catch a cold. Let's go.

Now, let's go.

Let's go.

Tank, help me!

Everything will be fine.

You will see.

We will help you.

Let's go.

It's okay, I'll do it myself.

Let's go.

Well, how is he?

What's wrong with him?

His heart, because of Mom.

How often does that happen?

Since Mom left.

She also left in August.

We had hunters back then.

She left with them.

Didn't say goodbye to us.

Do you remember how she left you?

You were little..

Do you understand?

She left you, when you were little.

And you love her.

How can you love her?

I would hate her.

I still hate her for you now.

I hate her.

If she had met me, I would have
said it to her.

You wouldn't say anything.

You should see how good she is.

My father never once
said a bad word about her.

- And do you love her?
- Yes.

If you want to know about the ballon,
I told her first.

And she agreed.

She said, "You will fly,
Yoshenka, you will fly".

You love her?

Yes.

Where is she? Where?

Why are you alone?
Why is everything like this?

Because she lied to you.

You were still small then,
and small people are always lied to.

So she lied to you.

You will fly, Yoshenka will fly,

and you got excited and at night
you couldn't sleep.

Before that, you didn't understand.

You don't understand this even now,
because you are still small.

Do you get it?

You shouldn't do this.

- You don't know her at all, do you?
- No, I know...

I know very well.

I can see what she's done.

And you're all lying.
You're lying to yourselves.

So figure out what you're suffering and
which is actually not there.

And you're fooling yourself and him.

And even Grandma.

Well, made up stories and made up flights.

You won't fly anywhere.

Why?

Yes, because it is simply impossible.

No, it's possible,

and I'll fly.

Yes, you will never fly.

The forest is on fire!

Don't go there...

...don't go there.

Move.

Yes.

It's horrible.

War, fire.

Now it's pouring.

A real storm.

Shakespeare.

Why Shakespeare?

Too much of everything.

I'm sure that Tanka...

She...

I wanted you to come so badly.

Honestly.

She got hurt.

Luckily,
the firefighters arrived just in time.

Yes. Valentin is here. They arrived.

Without him everything
would have been fine.

It didn't take long there.

Why not long?

How was it?

Everything's okay.

Lie down and rest.

It's okay,
it's just a waste of time in bed.

We're leaving.

When?

We have to stay a few more days.

Daddy is very angry.

On me, on my grandmother,

and at you.

He said I can't stay.

When will you leave?

There will be no cars today.

Will you come tomorrow?

I'll come.

Maybe we won't leave tomorrow either.

That would be good.

Okay, I'll go.

Yosh.

Yes?

Do you know what it is?

A toy made like a helicopter.

No, it's a helicopter made like
this toy.

This toy dates back to the 14th century.

And then in its likeness

Leonardo da Vinci
invented the helicopter.

Then the helicopter
was invented again.

So whoever came up with
this children's toy,

he's the genius Leonardo.

You know all this?

Honestly.

Honestly.

Vitka told me all this.

He came this morning.

Okay, I'll go now.

Yosh.

Yes?

I'm sorry.

I am.

Okay...

Please forgive me.

Okay,

and not telling the truth then.

I know it's not true.

I don't know.

Now, I don't know.

Maybe this is true.

Isn't it time for us to go?

Dad.

Well, Dad!

Well, Dad!

For some reason I
thought it was you.

What's this?

Where?

This is a hammock.

I collected them from the dachas.

I see.

For the balloon.

For the balloon.

You must agree,
that wasn't a bad idea.

Didn't you get a chance to say goodbye?

Why?

I could see her.

In the car on the road.

That's good.

She saw you.

I don't know.

Well, that's okay.

I thought of everything.

What?

You see,
you don't have to go up in a balloon.

All you have to do is just
to start up one of these.

All the boys I told you about

were launching balloons

made of tissue paper.

It's true. It was fashionable then.

They were called

IOC Golf Yars.

And now?

I thought...

If you don't let the balloon launch now

you will never fly.

You just don't want to fly anymore.

It would be horrible,

if you never want to fly again.

But how will it fly?

We don't have gas.

Very simple.

With hot air.

You know, I've got alcohol...

We'll hold it over the heat.

And the balloon will
fly away with hot air and

will fly for a long time
until it cools down.

Then, when the air cools down,

the ballon will slowly fall to the ground.

Great.

Too bad that Tank isn't there.

We'll think that Tank is with us.

We'll launch this balloon
early in the morning.

All the grass will be in icy in Russia.

Sidorova will shine

like the milky way

strewn with stars.

Yes.

Yes, you can.

We have something to do here.

And they're leaving tomorrow.

Come in.

So, how's the glider?

It's okay.

Too bad it all burned down.

Yes.

And I knew what
you were doing there.

- Where is it from?
- You wouldn't think it's from Tank.

It's a genius sniff.

And I didn't tell anyone.

Don't get upset.

We have almost everything ready.

You will see wings in the garage.
And there's nothing left to do at all.

Yes, nothing.

There's been more doing.

The fuselage.

Maybe next summer.
we could try it together.

Dibs on me flying.

I am lighter than you.

Nothing will ever get you up.

And I'm in my third year of not growing.

So what? Let's run it.

Let's give it a try.

Maybe this would be a good place.

We forgot the matches.

I took the matches.

How many years have passed since then?

How my balloon took off.

And flew away.

Right now.

No.

It hasn't disappeared.

It is flying.

After all.

'Cause what we
dreamed about as kids

will always be with us.

With me.
