that the father sells spirits?

That is my legal right.

When the people drink the fathers spirit

and break the ten commandments,-

-hasn't the person breaking the commandments,

damned themselves to hell, father?

You're the one under interrogation, not me.

In the presence of these men

I forbid you to preach.

and if you continue your criminal practices,-

-you can be brought up in front of a court

and sentenced to fines or imprisonment,-

-and the third time you can

be banished from the land.

The father still can't banish

me from the Kingdom of God.

Despite the warnings Danjel Andreasson

continued his preaching.

Then father Brusander excommunicated him :

Danjel was banned from the communion and the

fellowship of the church.

Jesus Christ, Whose body you are about to receive,-

-keep you for eternity.

Jesus Christ, Whose blood you are about to receive,-

-keep you for eternity.

Jesus Christ, Whose body you are about to receive,-

-keep you for eternity.

Jesus Christ, Whose blood you are about to receive,-

-keep you. . .

Dear Danjel. Don't open.

Our Lord, Jesus Christ, is with us.

We have nothing to fear.

Who are you that disturbs

the piece at night?

It is sheriff Lnnegren. Open !

Who is the officer seeking at this hour?

You, Danjel Andreasson.

Now open this door, in the name of the law!

I do not obey the laws of humans.

If you won't open it is my duty to

kick this door in. Open !

The good officer should not increase his sin-

-through brute force against the Lord.

What are all these people doing here in the middle

of the night?

-We are gathered for a meal of Love.

-You are defiling the holy sacrament.

-We are enjoying the sacraments.

Here you can see Danjel Andreasson

distributing the holy communion.

-Have you given communion?

-Not to everyone. The officer interrupted.

No one who is not ordained, can give communion

The priest has explained this.

I do not follow the priest,

I follow the holy scriptures.

and nowhere in the scriptures does

it say that Jesus Christ was ordained a priest.

-Don't argue with that hair-splitter.

-Take down the names of everyone here.

I have forbidden you to preach.

yet you continue. therefore we have no choice

but to punish you according to the letter of the law

I beg you to think of your immortal souls.

Anyone who repents their sins/ confusion

are welcome in the church.

Move aside, priests! you stand there

black and evil as the devil himself.

Your mind is not improved. still you take

the blood of Christ in your filthy mouths.

-I dare for you !

-Are you harassing the priest, Ulrika?!

-I'm harassing the deacon as well.

-You should wash your mouth.

-With priest-spirit or priest-piss?

-Quiet, whore!

whore?! Did you say whore?

A whore to you, Per Persson !

If I'm a whore, then your a punter!

Do you remember when you came with riksdalers

in one hand and your dick in the other-

-and asked me to lie on my back for you?

Then you behaved.

-Ulrika, be quiet.

-and what about that horehound !

No one denies him communion in church.

He is friends with those fat priests.

those comfortable lard bodies living

living in their fat flesh !

By the power of your authority you

ought to disperse the gathering.

I forbid you to continue the communion.

The father cannot banish the Lord

Jesus Christ from the house.

You think these are revelations from God,

but they are from the devil.

Get out of here, damn flesh-priests!

Out, I say!

Silently I must listen to my accuser

and innocently go

and forgive and forget

safe in the knowledge that God will judge justly

Judge at the spring court the year 1849.

Danjel Andreasson : 200 daler silver.

other participants at gathering : 100 daler silver

or 28 days in prison.

Jesus Christ, Whose blood you're about to receive,-

-keep you for eternity.

-Can I have some porridge?

-No, not now.

You will get some tonight,

when your little brother is baptised.

-I want porridge.

-You can't have any! Go to grandma.

You will get porridge tonight, when we're

having guests. We are baptising our little boy.

-The kids are here again.

-I don't suppose they've found much.

Anna ! No. . . get away!

Shame on you !

There, get out! There!

It was a shame to have to send them away.

Couldn't they have stayed at home?

We haven't got more than that?

You can't eat that.

-Mother is boiling soup on it.

-Take this. Run along home now.

Is it dads little helper coming?

You're not cold are you?

Run in to Mother now.

Anna ! Anna !

Anna !

Anna !

Oh no, child. . .

-Soon everything will be alright.

-Little Anna.

Let me dry you off a little.

The stomach is completely swollen.

Don't you think we have to get Berta from ldemo?

Let see how the little girl is.

Yes. . . she's very poorly.

The grains in the porridge have

swelled to twice their size.

They might have burst the stomach,

in which case there is nothing I can do for her.

We'll have to see how she is tomorrow,

if things take a turn for the better,-

-but if they don't, I'm afraid

God will take this little girl with him.

Yes, I think so.

But we have to believe it might turn.

Nobody knows what might happen.

You've been sitting here all day.

Won't you let me make the coffin?

Listen.

Won't you let me make it for you?

Now I'm no longer opposed to moving to North-America

Don't touch the washing with your filthy fingers!

Leave the washing be. Don't make it mucky

now that we've gotten it clean.

We can bring that along too.

There, yes. Let grandpa keep that.

"on roads like these one travels

at great speeds."

"two to three miles an hour,

yes, sometimes even faster."

"many large wagons are bound together

and are pulled by a steam engine."

"on the road is lain powerful

cross beams made of wood,"-

-"and the metal bars used to guide the

wagons are attached to these."

"each wagon is so comfortable it makes

disembarking unnecessary."

"these railroads, where one through the

bower of steam can enjoy a comfortable journey,"-

-"have reached a length of 8000 English miles

in America."

The grass grows so thick that one has enough for

winter fodder for a cow in just two days.

Does the railroad lay on the ground unguarded

night and day?

Doesn't the iron get stolen?

In America there is such an abundance of iron

that no one steals as much as a track.

It's the same with silver and gold.

In America they will hang a thief immediately,

often before he has time to confess.

Americans are the most honest people in the world.

they must have a bastard or two even they.

-You have some people with you.

-Six.

You will be more. Your family will

be bigger than you can imagine.

You haven't asked the council of your children

or grandchildren.

-I am thinking of my children.

-I am thinking about mine.

Since he's been able to button his own trousers

he's never once asked our council.

and no one wants un-requested advice.

Is your ear hurting?

It will be OK once we get to America.

Vilhelm Moberg

Karl Artur Vilhelm Moberg (20 August 1898 – 8 August 1973) was a Swedish journalist, author, playwright, historian, and debater. His literary career, spanning more than 45 years, is associated with his series The Emigrants. The four books, published between 1949 and 1959, deal with the Swedish emigration to the United States in the 19th century, and are the subject of two movie adaptations and a musical. Among other works are Raskens (1927) and Ride This Night (1941), a historical novel of a 17th-century rebellion in Småland acknowledged for its subliminal but widely recognised criticism against the Hitler regime. A noted public intellectual and debater in Sweden, he was noted for very vocal criticism of the Swedish monarchy (most notably after the Haijby affair), likening it with a servile government by divine mandate, and publicly supporting its replacement with a Swiss-style confederal republic. He spoke out aggressively against the policies of Nazi Germany, the Greek military junta, and the Soviet Union, and his works were among those destroyed in Nazi book burnings. In 1971, he scolded Prime Minister Olof Palme for refusing to offer the Nobel Prize in Literature to its recipient Alexander Solzhenitsyn – who was refused permission to attend the ceremony in Stockholm – through the Swedish embassy in Moscow. Moberg's suicide by self-inflicted drowning also drew much attention. He had had a long struggle with depression and writer's block. more…
