00:01:27 Russian Ark
00:01:41 I open my eyes and I see nothing.
00:01:49 I only remember
00:01:54 Everyone ran for safety
00:02:00 I just can't remember
00:02:15 How strange. Where am I?
00:02:17 Marie, I must tell you something.
00:02:18 Judging by the clothes,
00:02:22 Where are they rushing to?
00:02:33 What if we are denied entry?
00:02:35 I've never been so frightened!
00:02:41 Don't forget,
00:02:43 Where are you all going?
00:03:01 It's cold! Close the doors!
00:03:33 Quickly!
00:03:35 Move ahead!
00:03:47 I went looking
00:03:52 Those officers don't know the way.
00:04:05 Can it be that I'm invisible?
00:04:41 Can it be?
00:04:47 Am I expected to play a role?
00:04:58 What kind of play is this?
00:05:03 Let's hope it's not a tragedy.
00:05:28 What does it all mean?
00:05:30 - Where should we go?
00:05:33 No, it's there.
00:05:37 That man in black...
00:05:41 He nods to me but goes away.
00:05:46 Pardon me for speaking
00:05:49 What city is this?
00:05:52 What city? Well,
00:05:55 I so hoped this was chambord
00:06:02 - What language are we speaking?
00:06:04 Russian?
00:06:06 How strange!
00:06:11 What are they doing in there?
00:06:17 Shall we enter?
00:06:18 - Where? There?
00:06:21 No, I have to find out
00:06:24 These wanderings about,
00:06:26 I want to leave.
00:06:29 Could all this be theatre?
00:06:32 Farewell!
00:06:35 Our paths must part.
00:06:38 Farewell.
00:06:39 You have answered all my questions.
00:06:42 - Farewell then.
00:06:46 What a pity.
00:06:49 We will never meet again.
00:06:58 He was obviously a foreigner.
00:07:02 Why would he be so rude otherwise?
00:07:41 It's best...
00:07:42 not to get involved in this.
00:07:47 Let's not disturb them.
00:07:53 In any case, it's much too late.
00:08:07 Sir, sir! I'm here.
00:08:16 My russian cicerone!
00:08:20 - Yes, let's go together.
00:08:23 Yes, but not my century.
00:08:27 I think I saw peter the great.
00:08:29 I hear delight in your voice.
00:08:34 Yes, very interesting.
00:08:37 Really.
00:08:39 In asia, tyrants are adored.
00:08:41 The more terrible the tyrant,
00:08:45 Alexander the great, timur...
00:08:48 and your peter the great.
00:08:50 You're wrong about peter.
00:08:51 He taught russians
00:08:56 A spiral staircase.
00:09:01 I see. But why?
00:09:05 What's so interesting up there?
00:09:08 You'll see...
00:09:12 peter ordered his son's execution.
00:09:15 The same man who taught the people
00:09:20 I thought you knew
00:09:24 He built a european city
00:09:26 He introduced order
00:09:30 - Where are they going?
00:09:33 To a party.
00:09:35 They were taught to have fun.
00:09:39 And the officer and the lady?
00:09:41 - At the party.
00:09:43 They've gone to the underworld.
00:09:48 And they are no more.
00:09:53 Be careful.
00:09:56 Thank you. I can see.
00:10:04 Do you see where we are?
00:10:08 No, I don't know yet.
00:10:38 Sir, be careful!
00:10:40 Don't betray our presence.
00:10:43 No need to remind me.
00:10:47 Do not forget I brought you here.
00:10:50 Please don't get involved
00:10:52 And you, do not get too close
00:10:55 Bend towards me.
00:11:01 - Do you remember?
00:11:04 Good.
00:11:28 - Why are you pushing me?
00:11:37 - Why is she pushing me?
00:11:42 What an impressive orchestra!
00:11:46 They must be europeans!
00:11:49 No, they're russian musicians.
00:11:51 No, europeans!
00:11:53 Italians!
00:11:55 They're russians, for god's sake!
00:13:07 So?
00:13:10 I say it's good.
00:13:14 Very good!
00:13:18 I need to piss!
00:13:33 I can't hold it in anymore!
00:14:11 No, no, don't, don't...
00:14:17 ah! Yes, yes.
00:14:23 Sir, sir!
00:14:27 Don't yell!
00:14:28 - Where are you?
00:14:33 Follow me!
00:14:38 I love the 18th century.
00:14:44 I would have to agree with you.
00:14:47 - Never contradict me.
00:14:51 Where's the empress? Gone!
00:14:54 Russia is like a theatre. A theatre.
00:14:58 Careful!
00:15:00 I think I know where we are.
00:15:04 How pretentious they are!
00:15:09 Don't lag behind, sir.
00:15:12 I'm not.
00:15:16 No matter.
00:15:19 I'm careful.
00:15:24 Theatre... what actors!
00:15:36 Thank you, sirs. Thank you.
00:15:39 They can't see me.
00:15:49 This seems like the vatican.
00:15:58 Those reliefs are painted,
00:16:01 What naturalism!
00:16:04 Weren't those decorations inspired
00:16:09 Raphael, yes.
00:16:14 Better than the vatican.
00:16:17 So they're copies?
00:16:18 Your authorities don't trust
00:16:23 Russians are so talented at copying!
00:16:27 Why?
00:16:30 Because you don't
00:16:33 Your authorities don't want you
00:16:38 In fact, they are as lazy
00:16:44 Lazy!
00:16:46 There was a painting gallery here.
00:16:49 - On the upper floor.
00:16:54 - But not the best masters.
00:16:59 The Tsars were mainly russophiles.
00:17:07 But sometimes
00:17:09 Wasn't the hermitage created
00:17:14 - Raphael isn't for you.
00:17:17 - For italy.
00:17:19 - It's warm there!
00:17:28 What beauty!
00:17:36 The small italian gallery...
00:17:48 who are these people?
00:17:52 Of which milieu are they?
00:17:55 Do you see that vase?
00:17:57 Yes! Empire style is everywhere.
00:18:00 - And those voronikhine lamps.
00:18:06 empire, empire, empire!
00:18:07 I have no enthusiasm for it.
00:18:15 Don't forget
00:18:19 Then it became fashionable here...
00:18:21 to the point of
00:18:26 to the detriment of its originality.
00:18:28 We battled Napoleon,
00:18:31 Who are they?
00:18:34 Petersburgers, of when the city
00:18:39 It's better that way.
00:18:43 an ancient city like Moscow.
00:18:48 - Who are these people?
00:18:50 - Only if it's not impolite.
00:18:55 Oleg Konstantinovich,
00:18:58 Lev Mikhailovich, actor.
00:19:00 Shouldn't they rise?
00:19:03 My European friend,
00:19:05 - My pleasure.
00:19:12 Medicine is a fine profession.
00:19:15 I haven't spoken for years.
00:19:19 Aside from my new accomplice.
00:19:22 Such a long time...
00:19:25 Odour?
00:19:27 A curious odour.
00:19:29 Have you been
00:19:32 Yes, for one hour.
00:19:34 - And you came straight here?
00:19:38 You must love art!
00:19:41 Are you interested in beauty
00:19:44 No, marquis.
00:19:47 "Marquis"?
00:19:49 How do you rest?
00:19:51 Today, we've come together.
00:19:55 It smells of formaldehyde.
00:19:57 Formaldehyde.
00:19:58 Marquis,
00:20:02 These men are emitting
00:20:05 Marquis, look at
00:20:09 The marquis smells of formaldehyde.
00:20:13 No, it's you.
00:20:17 I know this painting.
00:20:22 It comes from paris,
00:20:25 Catherine II acquired it in 1772.
00:20:30 One of the earliest pieces
00:20:33 Such information is for specialists.
00:20:38 For us, detail is more interesting.
00:20:41 Look closely here.
00:20:43 A chicken and a cat
00:20:48 They are symbolic figures.
00:20:51 The chicken represents greed,
00:20:54 the cat, cynicism and cruelty.
00:20:58 Cynicism and cruelty... the cat...
00:21:00 they are both
00:21:03 How interesting.
00:21:05 Why is he dressed like that?
00:21:12 Cleopatra, for example...
00:21:16 Massimo stanzione...
00:21:19 cleopatra is on the same wall...
00:21:22 as the circumcision of christ
00:21:26 - What bothers you?
00:21:30 Right next to saint cecilia?
00:21:35 By carlo dolci!
00:21:37 And next to eastern still life!
00:21:40 - Why does that bother you?
00:21:44 As a catholic, that shocks me.
00:21:49 What do you think of wagner?
00:21:50 Who is wagner?
00:21:53 Oleg, he doesn't know wagner!
00:21:56 Wagner is that child
00:21:59 with my best friend, meyerbeer.
00:22:04 I have never listened to wagner.
00:22:06 - Broaden your horizons!
00:22:10 - But I'm not sick!
00:22:15 Sir, why are they badly dressed?
00:22:18 My friends, how could I think...
00:22:21 that you would get along so badly?
00:22:24 I'll tell you one day.
00:22:28 Why quarrel with everyone?
00:22:32 If you do, we will never discover
00:22:35 Such clothing kills
00:22:41 Why do you find it necessary
00:22:46 For what reason?
00:22:49 Why borrow also europe's mistakes?
00:22:54 My god! What is all this?
00:23:02 Mother!
00:23:13 Canova!
00:23:15 What an elevated approach to art!
00:23:18 What feel for the material!
00:23:22 How wonderful!
00:23:27 He is a true heir
00:23:31 Canova almost married my mother.
00:23:34 Was your mother a sculptress?
00:23:37 Yes. In rome.
00:23:39 In rome?
00:23:43 in this canova collection,
00:23:49 that Tsar Alexander
00:23:52 of napoleon?
00:23:54 Yes. It was 1815,
00:23:58 What were you doing there?
00:24:00 - I was a diplomat.
00:24:03 This collection was the object
00:24:08 Look where we are now!
00:24:12 Is this a dream?
00:24:15 Maybe, maybe.
00:24:20 I don't know about you,
00:24:26 it's amazing how well i speak Russian!
00:24:29 Yes, quite well.
00:24:34 Who was that small man?
00:24:41 - Good day.
00:24:44 Is that your great poet?
00:24:47 I read him in French.
00:24:51 Sir.
00:24:52 My god, how touchy you are!
00:24:56 Pardon me!
00:25:00 I'm sorry if i've offended
00:25:04 What is that, nationalist sympathy?
00:25:13 What's that there?
00:25:15 - Please...
00:25:18 Please don't rush.
00:25:20 All alone, without an escort?
00:25:22 It would be wiser
00:25:28 Don't bother her.
00:25:32 Let's move along.
00:25:45 Excuse me, madam,
00:25:51 Thank you for your concern.
00:25:55 Of course. Do you work here?
00:26:00 Not at all. I'm here to admire the works
00:26:08 Would you accompany me
00:26:12 To see the flemish masters?
00:26:19 With pleasure.
00:26:23 - 140 paces, straight ahead.
00:26:29 How many are left?
00:26:35 Watch your step.
00:26:38 - One cannot be so intrusive, I told you.
00:26:43 It's all your fault.
00:26:49 - You are compromising me!
00:26:53 How dare you! Quiet!
00:27:11 - We're here.
00:27:15 Can we go closer to that painting?
00:27:18 Would you like me
00:27:22 The virgin with partridges
00:27:26 Catherine II acquired it.
00:27:30 Tell me about this painting.
00:27:33 Please, tell me.
00:27:36 See the calm and serenity
00:27:40 - Joseph, yes.
00:27:44 There is no doubt
00:27:48 The apple tree represents life.
00:27:52 On the upper right,
00:27:55 - They're flying away.
00:27:58 angels dance and play.
00:28:01 So many other symbols
00:28:03 Sir, leave her. She's an angel.
00:28:22 Why have you gone quiet?
00:28:25 The partridges, the children,
00:28:32 thank you, madam. Thank you.
00:28:36 I highly value your opinion
00:28:43 You'll definitely be interested
00:28:46 Be very careful!
00:28:48 A rubens.
00:28:51 Sir, do not disturb me!
00:28:58 The feast in the house
00:29:00 The pharisee...
00:29:03 I don't see it.
00:29:08 Where is it?
00:29:11 Thirty-six, thirty-five...
00:29:25 no, that painting isn't here.
00:29:35 Not part of the Tsar's collection.
00:29:41 Yes, it's here.
00:29:44 That particular rubens is not here!
00:29:48 Yes, it was from
00:29:52 like the virgin with partridges.
00:29:54 But that rubens isn't on exhibit.
00:29:57 But it's here.
00:30:10 - Where are you?
00:30:13 The scent of oils...
00:30:18 sir, let's leave here now.
00:30:23 No, let's stay a while.
00:30:28 What wonderful paintings!
00:30:33 What are those men counting?
00:30:39 You were right. I found it.
00:30:44 Let's take a closer look.
00:30:47 There it is.
00:30:51 We're almost there.
00:30:57 There it is.
00:31:02 Yes, there it is.
00:31:07 - Something to say about rubens?
00:31:11 Rubens considered Van Dyck
00:31:16 You know, there was a time
00:31:20 were placed much higher
00:31:23 The Tsar himself supervised
00:31:27 - Who are you?
00:31:31 - Insignias.
00:31:34 The Tsar visited his collection
00:31:38 He personally saved all this...
00:31:40 during the fire.
00:31:44 - Which fire?
00:31:51 so you are asking me?
00:31:53 Enough, let's go.
00:31:59 It's time for me to go.
00:32:01 May I accompany you?
00:32:04 What a pity.
00:32:07 I must ask you to leave.
00:32:11 The museum is closing.
00:32:13 Please see yourself to the exit.
00:32:18 Quiet. Close the door.
00:32:24 The museum is closing.
00:33:40 - How was my scene?
00:33:45 I was joking.
00:33:50 Joking...
00:34:10 - do you hear music?
00:34:25 Russian music makes me break out in hives.
00:34:31 That has nothing
00:35:00 Why do you look at me like that?
00:35:19 - Rags... a dog...
00:35:23 - eternal people...
00:35:28 live and go on living.
00:35:33 - You'll outlive them all.
00:35:44 what are you doing?
00:35:52 Are you interested in painting?
00:35:59 What nice little hands!
00:36:06 Stay away from me!
00:36:42 Amen. Amen.
00:36:46 - Beautiful, isn't it?
00:36:51 - Are you catholic?
00:36:56 Why do you ask?
00:37:00 It seemed to me that you were deep
00:37:03 while admiring the images
00:37:08 I don't know.
00:37:14 You were not...
00:37:16 do you know that
00:37:22 Yes, that's what I heard.
00:37:25 That's what you heard. And so?
00:37:36 I looked at them
00:37:39 You like them...
00:37:42 - one day, all men...
00:37:46 ...will become like them.
00:37:51 How can you know
00:37:59 if you don't know the scriptures?
00:38:16 Why aren't you saying anything?
00:38:27 Look at their hands.
00:38:34 The hands are beautiful. And so?
00:38:44 How can you know what will become
00:38:47 if you don't know the scriptures?
00:38:50 For you,
00:38:55 - Just flesh.
00:38:58 from their long road to appear
00:39:06 - What happened?
00:39:09 How can you know their character...
00:39:12 if you have not read the gospels?
00:39:14 How can you know all that?
00:39:17 Sir, why are you frightening him?
00:39:21 He's not afraid.
00:39:24 Leave him alone.
00:39:26 Better to appreciate the scent
00:39:30 - It smells good.
00:39:43 You need not fear.
00:39:45 So strange to hear those words.
00:39:50 Now I understand.
00:39:54 Yes...
00:39:58 I understand.
00:40:01 We're in the Tsar's gallery...
00:40:03 near the portrait
00:40:07 Where have we wandered to?
00:40:13 That music was good, after all.
00:40:18 - Glinka.
00:40:21 a Russian.
00:40:22 No, he's german.
00:40:26 All composers are german?
00:40:43 El greco.
00:40:55 Very nice.
00:40:57 Looks like a rembrandt.
00:41:03 El greco... dust from the roads.
00:41:07 What dust from the roads?
00:41:16 Nice, very nice.
00:41:18 - Something you don't like?
00:41:20 - It's nice, very nice.
00:41:23 more flesh... very nice.
00:41:32 These are nice paintings.
00:41:36 Nice paintings...
00:41:38 they're getting better and better.
00:41:52 There's an angel.
00:42:30 Pardon me for addressing you
00:42:34 To whom was that directed?
00:42:40 Do tell.
00:42:41 - I'm speaking to the painting.
00:42:46 How interesting!
00:42:48 - I must speak my mind.
00:42:52 And so you talk to the painting.
00:42:56 Would you like to try?
00:42:59 Must I try? Very well.
00:43:06 - Like that.
00:43:10 Now, like this.
00:43:13 Now a turn.
00:43:25 Sometimes
00:43:31 This painting and I...
00:43:36 we have a secret.
00:43:40 Really?
00:43:42 - Yes.
00:43:45 That's all, gentlemen. Good-bye!
00:43:51 Where are you going, madam?
00:43:56 She's offended.
00:44:13 Hi!
00:44:16 Good-bye!
00:44:24 Farewell, gentleman!
00:44:26 How charming!
00:44:30 She's offended. But so charming!
00:44:42 Where has she gone?
00:46:54 Marble...
00:46:57 a white stone...
00:47:00 very white.
00:47:04 Rather cold, isn't it?
00:47:06 When you first came here,
00:47:10 That was just after the fire.
00:47:13 I have been here before,
00:47:16 What luxury!
00:47:22 What is that?
00:47:24 It's under the convention that
00:47:28 you don't know 20th-century Russian history.
00:47:32 Our convention lasted 80 years.
00:47:36 A real revolution... very sad.
00:47:41 What kind of system is there now?
00:47:45 I don't know.
00:47:48 I have never believed
00:47:51 for a country as large as russia.
00:47:54 You europeans are democrats
00:47:57 - You are French, is that it?
00:48:04 Excuse us, we're lost.
00:48:06 - Please be on your way.
00:48:09 - Remaining here is forbidden!
00:48:13 Who forbids it?
00:48:16 What language!
00:48:19 It's better not to argue.
00:48:23 We're going, we're going.
00:48:27 I know where we can hide.
00:48:29 I suddenly feel afraid.
00:48:42 - Not that door, sir!
00:48:47 - Such a beautiful door!
00:48:58 Why is it so cold?
00:49:00 I told you not to enter.
00:49:03 What cold! Frames...
00:49:10 where are the canvases?
00:49:13 Let's go back, I beg you.
00:49:17 - Who's there?
00:49:19 - Why have you come here?
00:49:26 - Come closer.
00:49:28 Maybe you need help, kind sir.
00:49:34 Who is the "kind sir"?
00:49:37 Me... you...
00:49:40 not here, not there.
00:49:42 There is no one.
00:49:44 Only coffins and corpses.
00:49:49 - I'm coming.
00:49:52 - Your coffin?
00:49:55 Why that strange tone, kind sir?
00:49:59 Why coffins in the hermitage?
00:50:02 "Kind sir"!
00:50:06 - It's my coffin.
00:50:10 - He looks well-fed!
00:50:14 Why do you ask "where"?
00:50:16 He looks well-fed!
00:50:22 - What happened?
00:50:27 Which war? Against whom?
00:50:29 - Against germany.
00:50:34 The unified state of the germans.
00:50:37 In the 20th century,
00:50:42 The germans surrounded the city.
00:50:45 But the city did not surrender.
00:50:47 More than 1 million dead.
00:50:51 - More than 1 million?
00:50:52 That's a high price to pay.
00:50:57 Saint petersburg
00:51:02 In russia, it is said that
00:51:05 A very high price.
00:51:07 But maybe not.
00:51:09 But it has already been paid.
00:51:11 I was wrong, by the way...
00:51:16 when I criticised your Tsars...
00:51:19 for all this beauty and opulence.
00:51:24 Even if they all were...
00:51:27 tyrants.
00:51:30 Quieter, please.
00:51:36 But it is beautiful, isn't it?
00:51:41 What do you see? Who is it?
00:51:47 Maybe Catherine II,
00:51:53 Nothing could be less certain.
00:51:58 That's enough! Lisa,
00:52:02 Don't go too near to her.
00:52:04 If it is Catherine,
00:52:14 like this.
00:52:19 Lower, lower!
00:52:22 That will be all.
00:52:26 The candles, the candles.
00:52:31 It's stuffy in here.
00:52:38 - There.
00:52:51 That's it.
00:52:56 But it's cold outside.
00:53:02 That's it.
00:53:27 Sir!
00:53:30 Where are you?
00:53:33 I hear your footsteps.
00:53:44 Mortals must not chase royalty.
00:53:52 You won't catch up anyway.
00:54:27 I hear your footsteps.
00:54:30 I hear them.
00:54:35 Sir, what are you doing? It's cold!
00:54:41 - Come this way.
00:54:44 - She disappeared.
00:54:47 - She disappeared again.
00:54:50 - Do you know where to go?
00:54:56 Let us through. We are allowed.
00:55:00 Where is the door? Where is it?
00:55:04 Greetings!
00:55:06 Don't be shy. Come.
00:55:10 Thank you very much.
00:55:16 What beautiful hair you have!
00:55:22 Tea! Would you like tea?
00:55:27 I don't either, but they insist.
00:55:31 We're in a hurry. Where is it?
00:55:33 - I know I'm beautiful.
00:55:37 What do you want me to say?
00:55:43 - Come on!
00:55:47 What is that?
00:55:48 - Did you write this book?
00:55:53 Neither he nor I.
00:56:00 Follow me.
00:56:04 Sir, what are you looking at?
00:56:07 What do I see?
00:56:12 Some people are obviously waiting
00:56:14 Let's proceed with caution.
00:56:20 They liked your hair.
00:56:22 Of course, good writers always have
00:56:26 - Be more careful and quiet now.
00:56:30 - Close the door quickly.
00:56:38 When I was last received here
00:56:43 it was being renovated
00:56:50 - The parquet doesn't creak.
00:57:02 - the ambassador of persia!
00:57:07 Sir, let's go.
00:57:13 The ambassador
00:57:20 prince Khozrev-Mirza...
00:57:24 the son of the future shah,
00:57:27 - Do you know what is happening?
00:57:33 We are witnesses.
00:57:35 Nicholas i received an apology from the persian emissaries...
00:57:41 regarding the murder of Russian diplomats.
00:57:45 Griboedov was one, I think.
00:57:48 How interesting.
00:57:52 Are you able to see?
00:57:55 What uniforms!
00:57:58 Luxury, empire...
00:58:02 power...
00:58:04 look over there. Higher.
00:58:10 Can you see?
00:58:14 Yes, I see now!
00:58:16 One must not trust this world.
00:58:30 Beware, court officials are cunning.
00:58:35 Some of them are mediums.
00:58:37 They could sense your presence.
00:58:40 Thank you for your advice.
00:58:45 I'll move ahead.
00:58:49 Good luck. I'll find you later.
01:00:02 Mighty sovereign emperor!
01:00:05 The peaceful nature of persia
01:00:10 among his majesty and the shah
01:00:14 Under its power,
01:00:17 committed unheard-of acts of evil.
01:00:19 the resulting victim was the Russian mission.
01:00:22 The honest heart of Fetkh-Ali-Shah...
01:00:25 was horrified by the idea
01:00:29 might destroy our peace and union.
01:00:32 His majesty the shah has sent me,
01:00:38 to request that you, sovereign...
01:00:40 erase from memory this event.
01:00:43 Let the world know that,
01:00:48 two wise monarchs,
01:00:51 speak openly
01:00:54 With the greatest joy,
01:00:57 your imperial majesty.
01:01:01 I carry out my grandfather's will...
01:01:04 that we strengthen peace...
01:01:07 between our two peoples.
01:01:32 His imperial majesty...
01:01:35 commands me
01:01:39 of his pleasure
01:01:45 as well as the righteous plea...
01:01:49 of your sovereign.
01:02:47 I've been observing you.
01:02:50 - You have no business here.
01:02:53 Then you must leave at once.
01:02:58 Off you go, sir! Away!
01:03:01 - I had no intention of staying.
01:03:04 This ceremony will continue
01:03:11 As a former diplomat,
01:03:14 A terrible boredom
01:03:20 Leave me alone!
01:03:22 - And what is that?
01:03:32 I adore luxury
01:03:37 Stasov wasn't a bad architect.
01:03:43 He loved discipline,
01:03:52 We cannot stay here.
01:03:54 The ceremony will finish.
01:03:58 My god!
01:04:02 Sevres porcelain, my weakness!
01:04:08 - Beautiful.
01:04:12 - Inimitable!
01:04:15 This is the cameo service?
01:04:21 Yes, it is.
01:04:29 Not so close, please.
01:04:39 What gold!
01:04:42 Sir, it's awkward setting the table
01:04:48 You can admire it later
01:04:51 What pure tones!
01:04:53 The blue and gold are enchanting.
01:04:58 And the wine-sediment colour!
01:05:02 Always such marvellous cooks here
01:05:07 Do you recall the taste of food?
01:05:10 No, I have forgotten.
01:05:11 You've forgotten...
01:05:18 visit the other salons while waiting
01:05:23 - That blue!
01:05:34 There's dancing. Come on.
01:05:36 Let's leave here.
01:05:37 - We're being chased away.
01:05:42 it's so dark here.
01:05:50 Heavens!
01:05:53 I see you have never seen a Tsar...
01:06:00 nor grand princes
01:06:04 - Monarchy is not eternal.
01:06:09 don't I have the right
01:06:14 We are free, you and I.
01:06:16 There's someone here.
01:06:29 Sir, don't you hear them?
01:06:32 No, I don't hear anything.
01:06:40 Look, someone is moving there.
01:06:44 Where?
01:06:51 Mr. Orbeli, I don't understand.
01:06:57 You and my father know:
01:07:02 - It's made of silver and treated oak.
01:07:06 I'm very worried.
01:07:09 See that velour from lyons.
01:07:13 - We'll restore it. Be patient.
01:07:16 You're right, Boris.
01:07:21 You won't ever see him again.
01:07:25 Speak!
01:07:27 He's your son.
01:07:31 What difficulty are they having?
01:07:37 What do you expect?
01:07:40 You descend from the heavens...
01:07:42 and no longer know how to behave.
01:07:46 Your son is hermitage director.
01:07:50 Like you and I before him.
01:07:52 The wars ahead... terrible wars.
01:07:54 But we managed to preserve all this
01:07:58 I can't hear anymore.
01:08:01 And you?
01:08:02 Yes, I hear. But not very clearly.
01:08:06 What are they saying?
01:08:09 The elder piotrovsky is asking...
01:08:13 whether the director's telephone is
01:08:17 His son tells him, "forget that.
01:08:20 "I would prefer telling you
01:08:25 "They are still here..."
01:08:32 there are so many people
01:08:34 Ten years have passed.
01:08:40 But everyone speaks well of you.
01:08:42 Your books are still in print.
01:08:46 That's particularly admirable.
01:08:48 The dead weep with joy
01:08:51 Especially 37 years later, Mikhail.
01:08:55 Is something still troubling you?
01:08:59 Is it the authorities?
01:09:02 They want acorns from oak trees.
01:09:05 They are not interested in knowing
01:09:09 But it will be their doom
01:09:12 Then there will be nothing left.
01:09:15 Mr. Orbeli, what awaits us?
01:09:22 - I'm coming!
01:09:25 - Listen, Mikhail...
01:09:28 You're completely alone.
01:09:36 They won't tell him anything.
01:09:42 I am asking you...
01:09:45 everyone can see the future...
01:09:48 but no one remembers the past.
01:09:52 Look how handsome they are!
01:09:57 Beautiful uniforms,
01:10:05 You didn't answer my question.
01:10:16 Nothing, you know nothing.
01:10:33 Sir! Wait!
01:10:37 He doesn't hear me.
01:10:40 I must apologise.
01:10:43 They said other things.
01:10:46 I could hardly hear them.
01:10:49 I made it all up, about orbeli...
01:10:54 - Only god can judge you.
01:10:57 We are free, you and I.
01:11:07 Please, don't run.
01:11:10 Run! I can't keep up with you.
01:11:17 Little birds.
01:11:25 Children!
01:11:28 Anastasia, where are you going?
01:11:33 They are...
01:11:36 so light!
01:11:38 You're always watching me.
01:11:46 I have a bad feeling.
01:11:48 Don't be alarmed.
01:11:50 Pray. And I shall pray for you.
01:11:53 Did you hear that?
01:11:58 - Did you hear shots?
01:12:07 I think someone is following us.
01:12:11 calm down, Alexandra.
01:12:13 If only alexis could run...
01:12:17 doctors are good for nothing.
01:12:21 It's my fault.
01:12:23 Children!
01:12:26 Children, behave yourselves!
01:12:28 Sorry, excuse us.
01:12:30 Come here, Anastasia.
01:12:35 I looked for you all morning.
01:12:36 We were playing.
01:12:39 Let's go.
01:12:43 Where is Alexei?
01:12:58 - Thank you, I can manage.
01:13:01 - Are you in pain?
01:13:05 Move your chair forward.
01:13:10 You are late for tea.
01:13:14 Forgive me.
01:13:20 What do you think?
01:13:22 Anastasia won't do it again.
01:13:24 It looks like it's not your fault.
01:13:30 Good-bye.
01:13:43 Fly away, my little angels!
01:14:08 And here's their cage.
01:14:16 They're all here, of course.
01:14:18 There haven't been so many guests
01:14:27 Good evening.
01:14:32 Look at that strange fellow.
01:14:53 But...
01:14:57 where has my European gone?
01:15:04 Where is he?
01:15:25 There he is!
01:15:31 He doesn't see me.
01:15:35 I should go up to him.
01:15:40 Otherwise he will be offended.
01:16:05 Sir! He can't hear me.
01:16:09 But I'll see him later.
01:16:36 Wouldn't it be nice
01:16:53 You know...
01:16:54 aristarkh konstantinovich
01:17:05 What a tiger!
01:17:50 Your mother has trained
01:18:01 Don't be shy! You are doing very well.
01:18:10 you are doing great.
01:21:57 Thank you.
01:21:59 Saint petersburg has the best balls
01:22:03 Everyone is so easygoing.
01:22:11 There must be over 3,000 people.
01:22:16 Maybe less.
01:22:32 I've forgotten everything!
01:22:34 I dance so poorly!
01:22:44 But it's all coming back to me!
01:22:50 Good, very good!
01:25:03 Bravo! More! More!
01:25:25 Where were you? I lost you.
01:25:28 I'm here.
01:25:33 I lost you.
01:25:40 Lost...
01:25:42 I'm sad.
01:25:56 Let's go.
01:25:57 To where?
01:25:59 Where? Forward.
01:26:04 Forward...
01:26:10 what will we find over there?
01:26:11 Over there? I don't know.
01:26:14 I'm staying.
01:26:26 Farewell, europe.
01:26:42 It's over.
01:26:52 You might say I grew up here.
01:26:56 But I'm not quite myself.
01:27:01 It's as if
01:27:30 Listen up! Look here!
01:27:37 Poor man, your lady has gone away!
01:27:42 - Flown away like a bird!
01:27:48 in a flash!
01:28:23 Shall we dine together?
01:28:28 I'll wait downstairs.
01:28:31 Have our coats brought up.
01:28:57 When we return to kursk,
01:29:02 Just before lent, for example.
01:29:26 I think we should invite your nephew
01:30:18 Nathalie!
01:30:20 It feels like we're floating.
01:30:23 It seems all this is but a dream.
01:30:29 But you have found her!
01:31:08 Custine!
01:31:26 Let me pass!
01:32:46 Sir, sir...
01:32:51 it's a pity you're not here with me.
01:32:57 You would understand everything.
01:33:02 Look.
01:33:05 The sea is all around.
01:33:11 We are destined to sail forever.
01:33:16 To live forever.
