So what does logic tell us?

Your 36 are a different team.

Excuse me.

- Yes?

Do you want some?

- No. No, thank you.

What is it then?

- What was that music you played yesterday?

Did you like it? Sit down.

Hold that.

Glad you liked that music.

Gimme.

I forgot to pack some salt.

Now I have to swap two pair of socks for it.

You would like to hear it again, wouldn't you?

- Yes. Please.

I rewound it with my finger.

You have to do that too, understand?

Georges! Over here!

Get up! Get up you bastard.

What do you want?

- Shut up!

Get outside, before I put a bullet in your head right here.

What's going on? What did my husband do?

Shut up!

- Did he commit a crime?

Let him go! Let him go

- What did he do?

Are you insane? I asked you what he did to you.

Listen, smart-ass!

It's none of your business, but anyway:

Your nice foreign buddy and his brood...

they steal everything they can get their hands on.

And not only since we are here.

Ain't it so?

I know you, my dear fellow.

Back in my village he killed a farmer and stole his stuff.

That's not true. I swear that's no true.

Certainly! You want to accuse me of killing that farmer? Filthy pig!

None of that is true.

What's going on?

Have you all gone mad?

I have been robbed. Meat, water and a goat are missing.

We just found out. I'm sure he took it.

Since we are on our journey, no one ever stole anything from us.

That's not true. My husband was here all night.

Where should he out your goat. That's ridiculous!

You should have kept your eyes open.

Who was on night watch?

Maybe Koslowski knows where the things have gone.

That's too low. Do you want to accuse me?

Maybe it was the boy.

- What boy?

She knows him. He stole some spectacles before.

Why did you do that?

I thought you would stick with us, when we travel on.

I never said that.

- Really?

Great! So now everything is fine!

Because of you they almost killed the foreign man.

They need the milk for their children.

I don't find goats every day.

You don't care what people say, do you?

Don't you care about anyone?

Generally no.

What is it?

I'm sorry!

The girl killed herself.

Why?

I thought you could help me?

- With what?

With everything.

But you destroy everything.

Your dog...

Now it works.

- You think that will fit?

Those are my daughters clothes. Maybe they fit your children.

Thank you.

Would you help me to bury my daughter?

Im sorry. I can't do it on my own. It's too much.

Ok. I'll make my round.

What's going on? What are you doing there?

Are you mad? Are you completely insane?

What are you doing?

Get over here, please. Please?

I won't harm you. Come here.

Please believe me. I won't harm you.

The horses! The run into the flames.

No!

- Calm down. Everything is alright.

Let go of me!

- Stop it. Calm down.

Let go of me! Let go of me!

Calm down! It's alright!

What in God's name did they tell you?

You can't believe all those things they talk about.

He's getting on our nerves too with his nonsense.

That razor-blade-idiot.

Probably he believes in it himself.

You got guts.

Tell me, where are your parents?

Where are they?

Why do they let you run around at this time?

You would have walked into the flames. That's for sure.

But believe me, the fact that you wanted to...

that's enough. You are brave.

Everything will be alright.

Probably tomorrow a car arrives...

a fast racing-car, you know?

You like those, don't you?

And a man jumps out and tells that everything is alright again.

And water runs into your mouth,

and the doves fly. And maybe the dead come back to live.

It's enough that you really wanted it.

I'll tell everyone, how brave you are.
