H-8... Page #3

Synopsis: A bus and a truck are moving towards each other along a two-way traffic highway on a rainy day. At the very beginning we learn that a reckless driver of another car will cause them to collide while trying to pass the bus; we even learn what seats will spell doom for their occupants. The rest of the movie follows two streams of events on the bus and on the truck, getting us to know and like a wide variety of characters, wondering which ones will end up being casualties and holding breath for our favourites. The epilogue brings some more surprises...

relative and not a husband.

I know:
It was your fiance!

"You are unbearable!" Excuse me.

In a few seconds we will

inform you the exact time.

The exact time is 19 hours.

We offer to listen to light music.

Also what there can be?

Look at the light.

Dad, ask him for a newspaper!

There is a page for children.

No.

"It's not proper to ask."

Well, dad!

It's 19:
20.

A minute ago, the truck

driver Knez asked his son:

"Son, is not it time for us to eat!"

And the son replied: "This is the first

time we will have dinner together."

Father added:
"At the same time we

will drink and forget everything."

It was at the station

Slavonski Brod.

"What shall we eat?" "Anything,

but not pasta and cabbage."

- You that only this and fed?

- No, there was something better.

But they always pestered

me when the food was bad.

- Why? Were you a cook?

- No.

But the tutor said that

if we had no thieves,

then we would have

lived much better.

And then everyone looked at me.

"We agreed that we will not remember this."

Yes, we will not, dad.

Everything was and has passed!

But if you get caught again,

they'll send me there again.

"It will not happen again."

Are you sure? Yes.

This is Dox! A worthwhile thing!

Waterproof! [Doxa is a Swiss company.]

Here it is written: Waterproof.

You can throw at least in the water!

"Give me a glass of water!"

"Take this one."

Like this! Floats in the

water like a fish! Listen!

- Ticking?

- Yes.

And the wine is spoiled!

Only for you - 3,200.

You would have seen his face

when he started to eat!

He said:
"No, not

at all salted, no."

In Zagreb you will have

new friends, you'll see!

Only choose those with

whom you will be friends.

Nobody likes being

called a coward,

but do not give in if you are

made to do stupid things.

Well, agree! I give you 400.

Imagine this! They can not be

removed, even when you wash yourself!

"I wash so rarely that it does not matter."

Wait!

- And where will we live?

- This is another question.

At the beginning we will

live with my friends.

Then I'll try to

find a good job.

Others did not waste time

in these three years.

And who will cook for us?

"Do not worry, we will not stay hungry."

"Dad... do you want to get married again?"

I do not know.

Well... and how do you think?

You know, Dad, I've been thinking

about how it's gonna be.

So what?

You know, Dad, you

better not get married.

- Yes, but who will farm?

- Dad, I'm not like some children.

I am obedient.

And I can do everything.

- Look! - That's great! How do you do it?

- Try it!

Well hello!

For your return to us, honest people!

Everything is over!

"Have not you forgotten your

comrade friend yet?" - Score!

Look at him!

Here to you and gratitude. And this is

for everything I taught him in prison.

Score! "What's the rush?"

Let's drink to a meeting!

It's time for me - I'm going to Zagreb.

"To Zagreb?" So I also need to Zagreb.

"I was just thinking who would take me."

I can not with me is a child.

Listen, give me a lift.

I'm without a penny.

Let's make it up.

Way long, let's talk...

Where are you going?

"Why did you think he was my father?"

He seemed quite old to me.

"Did it upset you?"

Now I do not care.

But sometimes, even what does not

matter to us is frustrating.

What reason? Is this the reason?

Do you think the flowers

will be produced by my old

man some kind of impression?

"But not forcibly..."

You must tell him

that you married,

we are waiting for the child

and only he can save you.

Yes! Not bad for a start!

And then I take out the gun, put

the barrel to my head and say:

"Your one word can save

my life." Not bad?

And he will say:
"Well,

my son, get yourself

killed, if that's

what you want..."

"I have no money.

You can not live at my expense."

I can not believe it.

You do not have to give up.

Explain to him that it's not your

fault that you can not work.

It will not work for him.

I feel sorry for myself,

I hate my old man and...

Well, you have a family!

You found a good job!

No one really knows what

you're driving there.

Approaches, for example,

someone and asks:

"Do not take a couple of boxes? ..

"Everything is between us..."

Do you understand?"

And you are calm, like a rock.

But if I agree -

stretch out your hand.

He gives you 3,000.

And you do not even stir.

He gives you another 1,000 -

but you're not in the right place.

And then he begs: "Well, come on!

Five thousand is a lot of money!"

And in the end he pays -

he does not have a choice.

Do you understand what

opportunities you have?

"And what is the joy of money in prison?"

Do not worry about that!

Why do you need your head!

"No, I will not go back there."

"People live in prison, too."

The first time there is hard,

but then you get used to it.

Kid...

Ask your dad to buy you a watch.

They are inexpensive.

"Take them away!"

- Look at him!

How many years he had not seen his son!

Well, decide!

"I'll give them to you inexpensively."

Get out. It's time for him to sleep.

"I do not want to sleep, Dad!"

"Tomorrow we will have a difficult day."

"Or maybe it's a lucky lottery ticket."

No.

They know that I

have a weak heart.

Then, maybe a school report

card with bad grades?

No, they are not like that.

Coughing on the bus -

it's unhygienic.

I cough because I'm sick, and

not because of too much health.

"You have beautiful

hands." "Since my work is

connected with them,

they must be beautiful.

And! .. And what do your hands

know how to do? - I'm a pianist.

"And will you ever play this way?"

"My professor says yes."

- And he can be trusted?

- I think yes.

This is just what he plays, with

the Philharmonic Orchestra.

"So you're in good hands."

Maybe.

This is the person who saw me off.

A wonderful thing!

- Yes, this is "Rolleifleks"

automaton with a lens 3.5.

[Rolleiflex]

"It must be very expensive."

- Yes, they are sold for

a hundred and twenty - one

hundred and five thousand.

And if used?

The used one is about

one hundred thousand.

- Want to buy?

- No thanks.

One eighty-two-year-old artist

married his twenty-year-old student.

"But I do not even know..."

"What would you like to know?"

A five-year-old girl is

seated at the piano.

And at a time when other children are

playing, she learns the etudes of Cherni.

And when it's time to fall in love,

it turns out that the only man

she knows is her teacher.

And he is a great artist,

very educated, witty,

and besides - very attractive -

Well... and what's so surprising?

"Why am I telling you this?"

I do not know.

- What?

- I don't know.

Excuse me, are you Dr. Shestan?

- Yes. What's the matter?

- Nothing. I am a journalist.

Everything is fine.

I check my memory.

The outfit is out of turn!

Where is your needle and thread?

And you will not have a match?

Soldiers at all

times are the same.

(- Is it time to tell him our address

and phone number?) - Dear...)

Ways-ways! .. Who are you?
