Silent Wedding Page #2

Synopsis: An enigmatic, so-called Mayor of a deserted village somewhere in Romania, commissions a small film crew specialized in documenting unexplained paranormal events, to make a brief documentary on his village, before the next elections. On their way to the place, the friendly and light-hearted atmosphere, gradually started giving its place to a more serious one, as strange sightings of women dressed in black appearing from the ruins, paired with an eerie apparition of a woman in white, began to manifest. What had happened to this once peaceful and colorful village, with its happy and down-to-earth inhabitants? Did it have something to do with the event of Stalin's death, when a seven-day international mourning was declared, strictly forbidding all popular events? Is the Mayor hiding something and what is his link to the village's past?

Yes, but there's music too.

There's a problem.

There's no electricity in the village.

Not my problem.

Watch your step

or I'll report you...

...for obstructing

the People's enlightenment.

Watch yourself Gorgonea,

I've done it before.

Wait... Lancu...

...the night has already

claimed your mind and soul.

You will go wandering, Lancu...

...but without your body.

Say what you have to say

Persuade?

To Hell with persuasion.

Threaten, scare them,

or I'll skin you alive!

We tried a democratic approach.

Democratic?

Watch it, I'm changing the strategy.

If you haven't brought

anyone by Tuesday...

...you're back at the factory.

Do you believe in it,

at least?

Yes, we do.

Do you really?

Yes.

In what?

In God?

Get out!

Get out,

you damn bastards!

What's up Vrabie?

Did you miss us?

Ulcior?

Give me a brandy!

I thought you had died.

Go f*** yourself

with your stupid jokes.

Why, what's wrong?

Are you upset?

No, I'm happy.

I'm celebrating the six month

anniversary of having my land...

...taken by the communists.

I should have drunk it away

when I could.

Drinks all round on me.

God bless you, Vrabie I

And may we drink more.

when they've

taken away what's left!

At least, I had something

to be taken away from me.

Oh, I mustn't forget,

have you got any lamp oil?

You can't drink it!

No, not right now.

Grigore wanted some, too.

When they bring it

I'll save some for you.

Rotten kidl Like father,

like son!

Always playing the field!

Why is your son

playing around with my Mara?

What he did to Smaranda

wasn't enough?

Dumb Man, tell him

what he did to your daughter.

So what?

Did I spread their legs?

Hey, moron,

watch your mouth!

What?

You're drunk. Calm down.

Why don't you keep your ox

in the cow shed?

Why do you leave your cow

in the fields?

Good Morning!

Hey Dad,

did you get lost?

Uncle Ulcior,

have you got any lamp gas oil?

Lamp oil? What's it

with all of you? No!

Lancu, come over here.

Have you been drinking

since this morning?

What's it to you

when I drink?

F***ing my daughter

means we're friends?

Why don't you marry her,

you bastard?

Well, I do take her

don't I?

Tell him, don't I?

He does.

Listen to me, you punk...

...don't you take me for a fool

or I'll kill you.

Who the hell do

you think you are?

You marry heror

you leave her alone.

Or I'll kill her

with my own hands.

I gave her life,

I'll take it away.

And have another one.

Like you did before.

Why don't you mind

your own business, you bastard?

Hold on!

Hold onl I'll marry her!

What did you say?

I'll marry Mara.

Do you mean that?

Yes, I do.

My in-law!

- My son!

- Father I

Drunkard!

Midget!

Ok, enough,

Ulcior, bring on the fuel!

She'd better be a virgin

or you take her back.

Go to hell Short-Arse!

the wedding on Sunday.

The Circus

will be here on Sunday.

Next Sunday, then!

No, next Sunday is Lent.

Thursday?

Done! We'll do it

next Thursday.

Very good!

Wait!

We should check.

...it's okay for Father Razor

on Thursday.

Him?

If I gave him a lamb

he'd marry me to the midget!

You're not my kind of guy.

Get lost, you idiot.

Go and tell Mara.

Right.

Come on, dad.

No I'm staying

with my new in-law!

Maybe they'll bring

lamp oil.

Marinela,

shall I pay you a visit tonight?

You freak...

...do you have

a tomcat for my p*ssy?

Try me. You could slot me in between

those two lovers of yours.

What two lovers?

You hurt my lip,

you fool.

Gogonica.

Yobs!

Squadron, Stand!

Straighten up!

Today, we are going to execute

a Cultural Activity.

What are we executing?

Culture!

Right. Sit down.

This is another example of how

the Communist Party thinks for us.

Starting tomorrow...

I'll be waiting for you

at the Town Hall to join the Party.

It must be tough

to be stupid!

No daout.

Hey, Carnulel

I know it's you!

You've got

a nasty laugh.

Go to Hell!

Comrade Sandu,

"Dear sister-in-law

Anastasia"

"I hope my letter

finds you happy."

"I want you to know

I'm well."

"We, the recruits,

are getting ready"

"and I don't know if

we shall meet again in this life."

"With God's will

I might be safe,"

"Wait for me."

"I embrace you

a thousand times."

"I, the brave soldier"

"What if he doesn't

come back?"

"They say it's hard!"

"I haven't seen him

for so long."

"What should I do?"

"Go to the city

and visit him."

The Circus is here.

People! Roll Up! Roll Up!

The Seven Wonders of the World

for only two pennies.

The Boa snake measures

two meters from head to tail...

...and three from tail to head!

People, people come closer!

The Bearded Lady!

Draw upl Draw up!

Sile, do you wanna see me fly?

Buy me some fruit cake

and I'll fly away.

You buy it for me

and I'll fly!

Look at Sile!

He's found his

other half.

Would you like

to try the maze?

How much is it?

One penny, but for you

it's free.

Come!

Come!

The grown-ups

have reasons to be sad.

It's better for us,

children forever.

Then why do kids

want to grow up?

They're fools.

The Russians.

We pray to God Almighty.

Who overcame

both Death and the devil...

And has given life to the world...

Lord...

May her soul rest in peace,

in a green and peaceful glade.

Where is no sorrow,

no pain...

May she rest in peace.

May she rest in peace.

You've still got the older one.

Susana,

bring some more red wine.

It was very good.

And how about you?

Are you ready?

Only one day left.

My father is going to kill

a calf and two pigs.

I hope there'll be enough booze.

If Father Razor stays on...

What's the matter?

Nothing.

Tell me!

Nothing!

You still don't want

to tell me about this mark?

It's just a mark.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Professor,

be careful with your wings!

You'll damage the decor!

Angels are advised to leave

their wings at the entrance.

So, Professor, how would

I look dressed as a bride?

You look better naked!

Silence, silence!

Dear assembled, may I invite you...

...to go through to
