You don't believe me?

Quit slobbering on the boots!

You are not as drunk as you act!

If you had drunk as much,

you'd be dead!

But, as you can see, I'm alive!

Is Kiir dead?

Maybe. I left him behind.

Which one was it? A boy or a girl?

- Boy, dammit!

What's his name?

- Kolumbus.

Kolumbus?

- No...

It wasn't Kolumbus.

Peni or Pennu...

- Peni for kid's name?

I guess there were two of them.

One was Peni

and the other Kolumbus.

You're making it up.

- Why should l?

You don't have to believe me.

- T urn the light off.

Tnisson?

Are you sleeping?

- Yes.

I want to tell you something.

Well?

You see, I am really sad.

Teele used to walk home

with me, but now...

Let her be with whomever

she wants. Don't mind her.

I can't, I do mind.

My heart is aching

as if I lost something.

You'll get over it.

- I'm not sure I will.

Of course you will.

Are you sleeping?

- No, go on.

There is an old willow by our road.

When my grandfather was young,

he stuck a small branch

in the ground, just for fun.

The twig started to grow

and now it is a huge tree.

Did you notice,

when you came to my place?

I will get over it.

What's the matter?

- I feel sick.

Why?

- That damn wine...

What did papa say?

- He said he'd kill you!

Come along.

Take your clothes off,

climb up and start whisking.

I can climb on the bench,

but the clothes?

Take them off,

you'll get sober.

I am sober. I just feel sick.

Well, then you won't.

Take them off.

Get your pants off and climb up.

Soon it will be warm.

It will heat up in a minute.

Damn, the dampers were shut!

Isn't it warmer already?

- No.

It seems to be getting colder.

I'll just get dressed.

Fool! You're almost sweating

and now you get dressed?

I can't sweat here.

- You sure will.

It's really healthy.

I told you.

Is it hot enough already?

No, it's freezing!

My butt is stuck against the bench.

Not even now?

- Maybe just slightly.

Get down then and wash

yourself with cold water.

Go to hell, I haven't even started

sweating yet. Look at me!

What's there to look?

- I'm all blue!

Toots, wait.

Wait up!

Joosep!

Wait!

Toots!

God has created you

in a fit of rage,

to punish mankind

for their sins.

Just as He sends us famine,

hail and heavy rain,

the same way has He created you

as a terrible example,

how low a child can fall,

if he does not

take care of his soul!

If we were to count all the pranks

you have played here

in these few months,

the sun will surely go down,

before we would reach

the end of that list.

Tell me,

what am I to do with you.

See, now you are quiet.

You don't have

an answer to that question.

Neither have l.

But I have to think about it...

And I will try to reach a decision.

Oh, Judas!

Arno, wait!

Are you in a hurry?

No, I thought you...

- What did you think?

Just admit, that you are

too proud to walk with me.

Teele! I am not proud.

But I thought

you want to be with I melik.

Me with lmelik?

When have l

ever wanted to be with I melik?

What nonsense!

Teele!

Teele, don't be mad.

Let's start coming to

school together like before.

Shall I wait for you

under the willow?

Wait, if you want to.

But will you wait for me?

- We'll see.

Isn't it strange. Everybody dies.

Be it young or old.

It has always been that way

and I don't think it will ever change.

Why is it that way?

Well, go figure...

A man is born.

It is as if he comes

to a joyful celebration.

Whatever good he did,

he did it to himself.

All the evil

he also did to himself.

And quite a lot

was still left to be done.

Perhaps others would like

to ask him to forgive

for all the evil

they had done to him.

Who knows how much

we all owe to each other.

But one thing is certain.

It is better to be sad

when leaving this world,

than to make others sad.

Because he

who comes to take us away,

he is not going to wait.

He just puts his hand on your

shoulder and says, "Come with me."

Because the time

that you were given...

...that time is up.

It is over.

And it will never ever come back.

Kuslap!

Kuslap, I am sorry that I hit you.

I won't ever do it again.

Forgive me, Kuslap.

I have to show

my homework to I melik.

Whatever!

Show him, if you want to.

Just, don't be angry with me.

I'm not angry.

We shouldn't go. We'll get

into a fight like last autumn.

What are you afraid of?

I already left the poker in the oven.

We can just watch.

You should have pulled

the raft out yourselves.

Pull, Lible!

Pull! What should I pull with?

A raft isn't a bundle of twigs

that the hook would sink into.

Out of my way!

Dive under water,

push the stones away

and the raft will rise up.

- Is it possible?

Why not?

T ake your clothes off.

Dive like little otters.

Stick the hook into the raft,

tie a rope around it and pull...

Help!

Goddamn bastards! They are

asking for it. - Let's help him.

The great battle

under the gates of Leipzig!

Give them hell!

Attack, boys of Kentucky!

Let the redskins have it!

What doesn't stick,

you just make stick.

What doesn't stick,

you just make stick.

What doesn't stick,

you just make stick.

Attack, boys of Kentucky!

Let the redskins have it!

Punish them devils!

Just don't kill them.

Come on.

The churchwarden is coming!

The churchwarden! Go now!

And you, buggers, as well!

Get lost.

The churchwarden!

Go on!

Goddamn!

Farewell.

Good bye, girls.

- Bye.

Let's take a walk

in the churchyard.

Haven't we walked

there enough already?

You don't want to come anymore?

- I don't think so.

What do you want then?

- T o go home.

What a baby!

He wants to go home!

Toots, will you return

to school in the autumn?

The devil only knows, what I'll

be doing. The world is wide.

Guys, I have some stuff.

If you want it, you can have it.

Arno, I promised to give you

that picture of an Indian.

Here you go.

- Thank you.

Show me.

Tnisson, here's a storybook for you.

When do I ever have time to read it?

- Take it!

Lesta... Where is Lesta?

For you, little Lesta,

I will give this silk ribbon.

se it as a watch chain.

But I don't have a watch.

No watch?

What kind of a man are you?

You can buy mine.

- I don't have any money.

No money as well?

There's no choice then...

Take it for free.

- Thank you!

Shake hands with the kind man.

But who will you give the globe to?

Right, the globe.

I should give the globe to some girl.

Imelik, you are courting Teele.

Give it to her.

- Oh, do shut up.

Where would she go with that?

Like a ball of fire. - Go on!

Then again, why not.

I'll tell her it is from you.

One shouldn't look

a gift horse in the mouth.

Jorh...

To you, Jorh...

To you I would really like

to give a good beating.

You sorry little bugger!

Always telling on me!

Remember what

you did at the christening!

Whatever!

I'm going to beat you up.

Well, then.

Good bye, little Lesta.

Try to grow a bit

in the summer.

Farewell, Tnisson.

God be with you.

Come back for at least

one more winter, if possible.
