- Did he tell stories?
- Wait a second, how did it go?
- All the birds got together, and
went to find Simurg. - Simurg?
The king of the birds, their
savior. Something like that.
They walked for years and years, face
to face with hunger, disasters, wars,
and conflicts. In the end
only thirty of them reached
lived. And what did they see
But that there was no savior
there. Nothing, no one.
Neither the king or Simurg.They waited
for months, years, but there was no one.
They looked down at the water and saw their
own images. One day someone emerged from
a midst the birds ans said, "We're Simurg.
Simurg means thirty birds. We're Simurg.
We're the saviors. What are we waiting for?"
You know, your father used to come here.
He used to say, now this is where I came to
know Simurg. In this valley. I have no use.
For worldly power, he used to say.
I'm leaving for the other world.
May I kiss you? May I kiss your elbow?
- What'd you do to my house? It looks great.
- Do you like it?
I'm really impressed.
Really! You even cooked.
- Did you come here to tell me this?
- What'd you say?
Nothing, where have
you been all this time?
It's a good thing for me to
disappear from time to time.
Not so, you can't just go off like that.
Where were you, I said?
Where were you? Aren't you
going to tell me? I'm asking you.
- Aren't you going to stay? - What's gotten
into you? - You really got me worried.
- You couldn't have called. - Come on,
don't act like all those boring husbands.
you again, that I lost you.
- Please, don't touch me.
- Don't you want me any more?
I don't. Don't touch me. I said, lay
off, lay off me. Don't touch me you ape.
I don't want you. I
don't want you any more.
- When are you going back?
- You want me to go back?
Don't be ridiculous.
Who would want you to go
back? I was just asking.
I don't know I'm going to return. I
can't do it before I find my father.
What about everybody there? Your important
work, it before your important house,
- your important wife.
- Baby, was this your big problem?
- It's time for you to get your
ticket and go back. - I don't get it.
Why don't you just go? I've found
someone who knows where your father is.
- What'd you say?
- Don't ask too many questions.
It's a Mafia boss. He's
expecting us tomorrow.
You don't have to say a thing.
I did this because I wanted to.
Come on, say something nice to me.
- Maybe we could set up a farm here
together. - You mean a fish farm?
All kinds of animals.
Fish, horse, birds, giraffes.
- What about kangaroos and elephants?
- If that's what you want.
- I'd like that. Just like in a fairy tale, right?
- Just like a fairy tale.
Receptors begin to from in
- heroin receptors.
- And?
The receptors constantly need to be
supplied with heroin. They're permanent.
- You've done the same thing to me.
- I don't exactly understand.
It just occurred to me
that way... Animals, a farm.
A fairy tale isn't it?
Just like a fairy tale.
At one point they came to me. They were
really in a hurry. I didn't know who they were.
They tried to get me to
convince him to return home.
But he was after his
father like a tornado.
But he wasn't able to find him.
The men were insisted that he return.
But it was like he was being hurked around
inside a labyrinth with no ending. It
was like he had chosen his father's path.
He was desperate. The more he understood
his father the more he began to resemble him.
I had told him that a person returns
with fresh when he journeys into himself.
He laughed.
- Welcome. - Hello.
- Have you found your father?
That's why we're here. They say
that the gentleman knows quite a lot.
- But he doesn't want to see you,
to talk with you. - How's that possible?
He was your father's prison mate.
They told you he had a lot to say.
There's nothing I can do about
it. I can't interfere in his work.
Please go and speak with
him, help us. Please...
I told you, he doesn't want to talk.
If you'd like we could sit down
and have something to drink.
I don't want anything to drink, I don't
want anything. I'm not budging from here
until I find out where my father us.
I'm not moving. I'm here until morning.
I love you.
Now I'm really convinced
that you want to find him.
He left this letter for you.
Thought you might come one day.
My driver will take you to him.
Those were the best days of
my life and I lived them fully.
Maybe I flowed through life to be able
to say with such ease that I really lived.
I passed quickly, really quickly
through villages still in the stone age,
through supposedly civilized cities where
deceit was the order of the day, through
friendships, treachery, and
through the traps set by women.
If you ask me whether all of this had any
meaning for me, I'd say, with some anger:
For God's sake, wouldn't you think so?
I'd like to repeat this three times.
My son, my son, my son... I never
dealt with my mistakes or my defeats
with bitterness. I always tried
with intelligence. How could a
father be so alone, so didactic?
Maybe it was just because of this
that my time on earth has ended.
Have you ever noticed the way cats disappear
with such grace when they're ready to die?
This really made me laugh. Well,
I really had a good laugh, I guess.
Maybe I should laugh at myself like
that now, at least I should try.
Those were the best days of
my life and I lived them fully.
Some day in some future never to
come, life will tell us who we are.
I hope at some unforeseen time, when life
confronts you and tells you who you are,
that it will also let you know who I'm.
Are you looking for someone?
Do you need something?
A tourist, I guess.
My life has told me who you are.
I'd been following them since
the big city. They were fugitives.
At first, I didn't understand why
they were coming to this seaside town.
Your father had been involved
in some covert work for years.
That's why the organization
kept a close eye on them.
It'd been six months since I began
the assignment. I was a real novice.
I spent those six months doing absolutely
nothing. Then one day they called on me.
I was really nervous. You see, your father
was my first job. They assigned me to watch
your father. He was considered
dangerous from the start.
You wouldn't know; you
weren't around then.
It was winter, January or February.
The town was completely deserted.
What if I lost sight of
them, even for a few minutes.
How would I explain that to my bosses?
I constantly lived with that fear.
Did you know your father did that to me?
I followed him for thirty-five years
and sent in reports to headquarters.
Them I retired. But I couldn't
leave him. I moved in with him.
I took care of all of his business, we
became friends. How could I have know then
