I'll be speaking the language

of my old country.

We're living in beautiful time.

An unattainable standard.

Man, that beautiful and

smart creature,

Has invented everything,

everything he wants, all he needs.

We're living in a world

without problems,

it's peaceful everywhere,

people are liking each other.

Everything is good, good.

Beauty and wealth have

changed people.

There's no more good and evil,

all people are good, and smart.

But I'm not going to talk about that,

you know that yourselves.

I'll show you pictures from that awful

times when my grandfathers father

came from Europe.

Everything electronic. There in Europe

is one big mountain, Kosmaj in Serbia.

There's one place there where's no

houses even where there is houses.

Form where my grandfathers father

came to the west.

It was awful in old country.

The Turks, wars, kings...

Instead corn and bisons,

paprika grows there.

I got this photo album from my poor

grandfathers father,

and one small device,

they call it slingshot.

You put stone here and

then hit in the head.

And one big gold mine that

my grandfathers father

earned with this small slingshot.

I'll be talking about how

he became real man.

My poor grandfathers father from

Theresnohouses.

GOLDEN SLINGSHO Starring:

Writer and director:

This is happy town

It was somewhere in the middle

of great wasteland

that was in that time, in the last

century, simply called the west.

It was a happy town until they were

hoping to find gold nearby.

And then they started leaving it...

Only respected citizens have stayed.

Merchant,

He was not exactly respected...

The judge.

Gamblers.

Saloon owner, the pianist,

sheriff,

But don't look at those people.

My grandfathers father hasn't arrived yet.

With the group of his countrymen

he's still traveling across the America

to that promised land - Happy Town.

Kreza, If only we could find

some shade here

to lie down a bit so I can rest

from this difficult traveling.

Important thing is that we got away

from all that Serbian fuss. - You're right.

Our priest Simeon is a smart man.

- He is.

"Follow me children", he says.

"Enough with all these Turks. "

"With all Karadjordjevic and Obrenovic,

enough with rebellions and mutinies. "

"Let's go to peaceful world,

to look for some peace. "

Our priest Simeon is a smart man!

- What's that? - I'm saying you're smart!

Drive more carefully, don't jerk

that much, my kidneys will go off.

No use, oxes are pulling like mad.

Another month or two, and we're there.

Be careful not to confuse the roads.

- Don't worry, minister has explained it.

Mister? - Minister.

Mister? - Minister!

Kreza, you're such a fool.

How do you say in american?

Is it mister or minister?

Mister.. Minister!

Small head, small intellect.

Sharo, you have the biggest head!

You should watch the road, that we don't

stray. We should go properly.

That Kreza's mister has explained

it to us.

He says:
"Immigrants, straight

forward, then left,

and Happy Town is there. "

And I wouldn't like if we stayed

in those New Yorks. - Why?

It's crowded, noisy... I don't like that.

I like it in silence, then I

put my hat on the side,

and then I start one dance...

No time, we're late! Let's go!

Get in!

- Let's go!

But while grandfathers father travels to

Happy Town, his destination,

he lives diverse and cultural life.

I'll introduce you with

more Happy Town residents

that are important for this story

and grandfathers father.

This is fat Sam. The richest man

in town and all around.

Unusually meticulous and sensitive.

His servant Laki - Lucky, was mute.

And because he was quiet all the time

he was the best servant.

Business mans were called gunmen

in that time.

These are Sam's guards, Blacky and Smoki.

Boss man Sam had very simple way

of running the business,

and he managed to convince all small

farmers nearby to give him their land.

Everything was, slowly but certainly,

in Sam's hands

Everything except the most

important part of land

that contained forgotten Indian mine.

No one knew about the mine

except Sam.

Even the owner didn't know anything.

Bill called Moljac.

But he didn't want to give the land

because of malice.

He didn't care about the land.

He didn't care about the money either.

But he was Irish. Sam was English.

And because of that he didn't

want to give him anything.

And so that last part of free

land, golden land,

because of malice, waited

for my ancestor Sibin.

But that's the other part of the story.

For now, grandfathers father is

still traveling.

Is she looking?

- Who? - Stanija.

Nope, she doesn't.

- She'll look, or my name's not Sibin.

She'll look at me like icon.

She'll pop her eyes like

a bird when she sees a worm.

What are you talking about? Here, you

have to win a girl with kindness. - True.

Serbs are used to get them by force.

Just to get there...

I'll give her wallflower and I'll say:

" Here Stanija, with love. "

If it's not enough, I'll pick it all day

long, even if I'm all pricked off.

Serbs were smart enough to bring

women and girls with them

because on the west it was big lack

of that... what's it called...

Article, yes.

That's why is no surprise that arrival

of poor Julie triggered that reaction.

The fastest one of all candidates

was Long Joe.

He just said:
"Allow me miss, this is

my son, this is my house, I'm Joe widow.

And he took her before judge for marriage.

Happy newlyweds.

That's how Julie lost her first husband,

and got her first house in

heritage, and first child.

Second husband too, Short Jim,

had a house,

and a child from some marriage.

On the west, of course, life was fast.

Rich and dynamic.

Julie had some experience,

if she lost her husband,

she'll have a house

and a child.

Oh yes. People were able

to love back in the days.

The one that is most in love is also

the most careful one.

Boss man Sam will not rush, because

he doesn't like public standoffs.

Only in fast development countries

you can get married 6 times in one day,

get 6 houses and 6 children

and stay unmarried.

What she's doing now?

- She's drinking schnapps.

Stop! Why are you lying?

She's eating bacon.

Don't be afraid my dear!

You know Kreza, how angry and grumpy

I am. I would fight for a woman.

You?! - Me, I swear!

- Don't embarrass us among these nice

american people. - I won't, I'm just

saying. There's no need for fighting.

I'll win her with beauty.

Lucky for you Sibin, that you're my blood

brother, otherwise I'd show you beauty.

You're beardless! - Beauty is not in big

head and beard! It's in man power!

If it's not too much trouble for you,

go back home and ask Radojka...

What's Sibin like... Come on priest

speed up those oxes

to finally get in that peaceful country

to rest from Kreza, and this suffering.

I'll introduce you with the

Happy Town sheriff too,

before the real story starts.

Once this sheriff was the fastest

gun of the west.
