Bring it here.

Easy, easy...

Here, here...

Wait, move away.

Stop. Watch your feet.

A real one, huh?

- Let's play a game.

- Move it, kid.

We'll all play.

Get the balls.

- The balls?

- Get them, come on.

I've put them here somewhere.

Let me look for them.

Don't tell me

we brought this table for nothing.

Damn, I can't find them.

Did you see where I put them?

F***in' balls!

Calm down, kid.

I'll calm down

when you find them.

It's hard, but you can't lose

your self-confidence.

- Let me go!

- I can help you.

I will help you!

A great misfortune has befallen you,

I know that.

Many of you lost

many years of work overnight.

I know it's hard,

but it will be even harder for you

if you lose your will

and self-confidence.

If you do, you won't be able

to gather the force

to begin a new life.

I've come to help you.

I haven't brought blankets or food,

but I can help through

suggestion and autosuggestion.

Hypnosis.

Can your hypnosis

raise a ruined house again?

A house can't be raised again,

but a new one can be built.

For that, you must believe

in yourselves.

I cure people from depression,

I give them back

hope and faith in life.

- No one can help us.

- You're wrong. It'll get better.

My house was destroyed.

The water carried away everything.

We've already been here two weeks,

people and livestock together.

The Red Cross comes,

they bring help. Essential things.

You know what they say?

They say they'll build us new

houses.

And what do we do till then?

We wait.

And what are we waiting for?

We hardly have a place to sleep.

And I can't even sleep anymore!

Ma'am,

you mustn't be fainthearted.

I'm sure that you'll soon fall asleep

and after that, be able to sleep

whenever you wish.

People,

gather around. Come closer.

Thank you, sir.

People often imagine

that they can't sleep.

They want to sleep, but they can't.

Why? Because their fixed idea

is stronger than their fatigue.

Understand? Their desire says,

' I want to sleep!"

but their stamina replies,

' I can't!"

Where is this lady

who cannot sleep?

There you are.

Sit down, please.

Thank you, sir.

On this chair.

Don't be afraid.

I will show you

how you'll be able to sleep

whenever you wish.

Sir, would you be so kind

as to help me?

Sit down, ma'am.

Don't be afraid.

Relax.

Relax your arms and legs,

relax your whole body.

Your tension is disappearing.

Put aside all your daily worries.

Look into my eyes.

Open your eyes wide.

Your eyelids are becoming heavy,

heavier and heavier.

You close them very slowly.

After three exhalations,

your eyes will be tightly closed.

You'll be

sleepier and sleepier.

You'll sleep tight.

Listen to my voice, only to my voice.

Nothing bothers you anymore.

You are in a deep, refreshing,

and peaceful sleep.

When you wake up,

you'll be refreshed,

well-rested

and in an optimistic mood.

When you hear my voice again

and only my voice,

I'll count to three

and you'll wake up

relaxed and refreshed.

Sleep...

Sleep.

You see? Very simple.

You can talk now, you can laugh.

She doesn't hear you.

She hears only my voice.

Why are you giving

these poor people false hope?

Hope is just what these people

need.

Boss, I didn't find the balls.

You must think

positive.

Repeat every day to yourselves:

' Everything's so great

that it can't be better."

And now I will wake her up.

Listen to my voice, only to my voice.

One, two,

three.

How do you feel?

I feel great.

Great!

Now I will hypnotize you all

in the same way.

You will be fresh,

happy and well-rested.

Repeat every day to yourselves:

' Everything's so great

that it can't be better."

Let's say it together.

Everything's so great

that it can't be better.

Once more!

Everything's so great

that it can't be better.

That's right!

That's right, people!

Hey...

Who's paying you to do this?

Why does one always

have to pay for everything?

Why can't one do good for free?

Right, people?

Right!

Let's ask this lady

if I asked her for money.

- No.

- You heard her.

And look how happy she is

after only one treatment.

Look over here.

I'll show you an exercise

in togetherness and solidarity.

An exercise which will

make us all much stronger.

Come closer, people,

don't be afraid.

Come closer.

Let's all be together, because

we're much stronger together.

Raise your hands slowly...

raise your hands...

Like this.

Friends... That's right!

We must be united.

Raise your hands. This exercise

will make you so strong

that you'll be able

to start your life all over again.

Now join hands with your neighbor.

Come closer.

That's it.

Squeeze your fists tight.

Do you feel the strength

flowing through your hands?

- Do you feel it?

- Yes, we do.

That's it!

Feel the strength!

Now you're strong, more powertul.

We're united

as one great strength!

- Right?

- Right!

Clench your fists

as hard as you can.

Everybody, squeeze

your fists tight, tighter!

That's it, people! Yes!

Do you feel a great energy

flowing through your hands?

Great positive energy?

Go on, clench your fists!

Through your hands the negative

energy goes into your legs

and disappears into the ground!

Do you feel the strength?

We're stronger together, right?

- Right!

- Right, my friends.

And now...

Listen to my voice, only to my voice.

I'll count to three and you

let go of each other's hands.

One, two...

Golub!

Look, I'm not sure...

I think someone's stolen my wallet.

Stop the hypnosis!

Let go of your hands.

Nobody move!

Am I under arrest?

Was I arrested just because...

I helped these people?

Better tell me where the wallet is.

I haven't taken any wallet.

There's been a state of

emergency declared here.

I came to help people.

First and last name!

Professor, that's how they call me.

Professor Gavrilo Nastassievich,

if you prefer.

OK, Professor, now tell me

where you've hidden the wallet.

I haven't hidden it.

But perhaps I can tell you

where it is.

Just a moment, let me concentrate.

Sit down!

Sit!

There hasn't been a theft

in this village in 20 years.

Recently, stuff has gone missing:

1 car, 1 tractor, 3 television sets,

1 0 wallets with altogether

around 30,000 dinars...

and some billiard balls.

I've just come today.

- Don't lie!

- I'm not.

I could help you find the thief

if you want me to.

Oh, f***. Golub,

bring me some hot water

and a Burrow's solution compress.

Listen,

I've been on my feet

for 1 0 days and 1 0 nights,

and you're f***ing me around!

I can help you.

Better help yourself.

If you would allow me

to hypnotize you...

Accept the hypnosis.

I could help you reduce your pain.

Believe me,

the pain is all in your head.

- Is that so?

- Like everything else.

And the outside world is,

as the lndian sages would say,

"maya", or deception.

Is that in your head?

Is it?!

Golub, what would I do

without you, my boy?

Nothing.

Careful, you're scalding me!

I can help you.

Your pain will stop, for sure.
