That spring 1 k. potatoes
cost 0.6 zloty in Warsaw...
-1 I kerosene. 1.20;
Parsley, 0.15.
It was Warsaw 1 943
in the wartime Poland...
... deep in the teeth
of German occupation.
With my friends from the rity cafe
before the war...
... we'd now meet in an apartment...
... only to drink and still try to be
artists. writers. and thinkers.
What brings you here
Frederick?
A cold. arctic wind...
or maybe a warm one... I forget.
No kidding?
Earnest as can be,
I've got four hare pelts
Anyone interested?
Thanks.
Counsellor Lipszyc.
Baron von Ordo's daughter.
Mr. Leleniewski; composer;
deep into the esoteric East.
Painters. writers.
and poets who survived.
The best blue blood in town.
What more can you want?
Just a match. please.
- Where have you been?
- Stop it.
- Where have you been?
- Stop it!
the shamelessly bandied
words;
"God.- art; theatre. nation.-
proletariat..."
as if the war was of no
concern to us.
was in flames.
Then Frederick arrived;
sat down and said little.
he'd get me involved
in the strangest story
of my life.
Am I handsome?
You look young.
But am I handsome?
You have a striking face.
But we don't
call it handsome.
Youve got carried away; huh?
But I like you anyway.- my
dear Witold.
I'm not handsome
but you know what?
I'm beautiful.
Let's go.
In the next months.
as we got close...
... he turned out to be
quite refined...
... experienced in theatre.
film; and circus art.
One day my old friend
Hippo lit S. from the Sandomierz region...
with my new friend.
"its peaceful here.- but
for some bands of marauders."
"The countryside isn't safe."
"Come.- both of you.
The more the merrier."
What's in there?
What's in there?
- Something.
- What?
- Nothing.
- Meaning?
Everything.
Everything?
Will you take the boy
to the manor...
... with a heavy bag of onions?
Sure.
Karol!
There they are.
Thank God
you've arrived.
This must be Mr. Frederick.
- Welcome.
- Welcome.
I know..- you wrote...
theatre.- wrestling bouts...
... romancing
all those chorus girls; right?
Right.
I wont ask anything.
- Let me take your case.
- No; thank you...
Ive grown fat.
Devil only knows why.
Because of everything.
And you're following in my footsteps.
And that's Mary.
My wife... my dear Mary.
They burned Sieniechw. In Rudniki.
they broke the overseer's legs.
I had refugees
from Poznan.
No news from Ostrowiec or
Bodzechw whatsoever.
Everybody's waiting.- all ears...
It's peaceful for the time being.
But wait till it bursts
when the front line gets closer.
It'll be a bloodbath... an
explosion.- a riot...
Like I say...But the worst thing is
there's nowhere to run.
...pray for us now. and
in the hour of our death. Amen.
Hail Mary. full of grace;
The Lord is with thee...
... blessed art thou among women
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.
- Hello. Iie-abed!
- What time is it?
- Oh. it's late.
- I promise to improve.
And here's Henia.
my beautiful one...
... the most beautiful
in the whole world.
Mom is ready
and the horses are too.
It's Sunday; were off to Mass.
You may join us if you like.-
but we won't force you.
Truth is the church burned down
and Mass is in the coach house.
You may find it
quite interesting.- gentlemen.
stars on Your head...
I didn't understand
what moved Frederick so much...
Must've been someone
he saw. or remembered?
- What's your name?
- Veronika.
Are you sure?
And that's Henia...
My little Henia...
Karol. son of the overseer
of Ikana.
Now. a handyman
in Hippolit's care...
A flaxen-haired god.-
daring partisan...
and a reckless whippersnapper.
His appearance tipped
the delicate balance...
... between us and them.
There was too much youth now.
Something pert about Henia
lording it over us. unawares.
Her youth wasn't meant for us...
Karol's youth was for Henia.-
and hers was for him...
But the whippersnapper
and the silly goose didn't know it.
Siemian and his men.
Must've shot someone.
Let's go to sleep.
I saw.
A nice couple.
God willing, she'll get
engaged one of these days.
Someone local?
Yes. a neighbour.
Vaclav Paszkowski of Ruda...
a very decent man indeed.
His mother runs the estate;
a saintly woman.- but... a widow.
Henia's young...
No better suitors around.- though.
Attorney-at-law.- responsible.-
talented.- and very well-read.
I see,
Why so sad?
There's something cheeky
about youth; don't you think?
What?
Everything.
Didn't you see
they're made for each other?
I didn't spy on them.
No mutual attraction at all.
What's lacking
is the chemistry of love.
- What?
- The chemistry of love!
No power can join them.
Rather than power.-
it only takes a few tricks...
Like housebreaking a dog.
- Give them a push.
- What?
- Give them a push.
- Right away?
Now.
Do you know
what you're abetting?
You really don't.
You want it?
I do.
Want to make a bet?
- What's at stake?
- Exactly...
- What's at stake?
- I don't know.
How. about... everything?
Meaning?
You'll see.
Wait.
rolled specially for you.
Brown-nosing, huh?
Are we intruding?
No. I've had it with
these potatoes.
Would Miss...
care for a... stroll?
I sure would.
Closer to the socket.
Karol!
The trouser leg!
Roll it up.
Wait!
Lether do it
Why me?
Do it for him.
So... Lets go.
The suitcase.
Vaclav...
the captivating lawyer...
Henia's fianc... and yes...
Frederick's future victim.
I got it instantly and felt
my sympathy for him grow.
Welcome aboard. friend.
Mr. Frederick; it's terribly sad.
Sad?
Away with it!
Gone!
Play a happy tune; please.
Happy?
Please.
Bravo!
So talented... Is there
anything you can't do?
Many things.
Like what?
Well; I can't take you away
from Vaclav. try as I might.
No one can do that...
in the whole world.
No thanks.
Hans...
Good girl.
... to beware of
those dangerous Poles.
Hans!
But they're such nice folks.
Hans!
Eggs! Eggs. for f***'s sake!
Eggs! Capish?
Eggs!
Mr. Myszynski!
- Should I give them eggs?
- Yes. And f*** them!
Good morning!
Good morning! They don't
understand a f***ing word.
Lock the horses in.
With the cows.
- Eggs.
- Yes; eggs.
Wait a minute.
Here are your eggs
My pleasure.
A gift from
our chickens and cows.
Zoska. the milk!
Here you are.
Here.
- Thanks.
- Good day.
Andres... eggs!
- Here.
- No; thanks.
Good bye.
Good f***ing riddance!
Don't ever come back again.
I get drunk...
... when I'm afraid.
