00:00:36 Once there was a guy like you
00:00:40 A septic-truck driver, Kalcho.
00:00:44 He got sacked from the Waste
00:00:48 The guy was married,
00:00:51 He was green-eyed jealous.
00:00:55 One day she goes out to eat
00:00:59 Kalcho follows her secretly.
00:01:03 but a pastry-cook, racy as
00:01:09 She does the dirty with him -
00:01:12 he lives on the ground floor
00:01:17 Kalcho drives up the septic truck,
00:01:19 throws the hosepipe
00:01:23 and pumps out
00:01:27 Three tons of feces.
00:01:31 Kalcho drives off - shitless.
00:01:37 The police get on his stinking trail
00:01:41 The investigation report shows
00:01:43 two and half tons of fecal matter
00:01:48 and half a ton more pulverized
00:01:53 A trial begins. They call in
00:01:59 The prosecutor asks him:
00:02:02 ""And so you're going home to get
00:02:06 you open, and... shit!
00:02:10 Didn't you feel sickened,
00:02:12 The prosecutor, you see, is trying
00:02:17 not only the material ones.
00:02:20 ""No, I didn't.""
00:02:23 ""Just like that, comrade prosecutor.
00:02:26 If it were a turd or two,
00:02:32 but two and a half tons of shit
00:02:39 The point is simple:
00:02:42 the bigger the shit,
00:02:50 The moral damage,

00:05:59 Sound Mind in a Sound Body
00:06:36 Sixteen o'clock.
00:06:39 I'm leaving Sofia Penitentiary
00:06:42 The plan, as the Soviet saying goes,
00:06:47 The release date has come.
00:06:50 The plan is simple:
00:06:54 then make off for the tropics
00:06:57 I was jailed before
00:07:01 They let me go long after it. I'm not
00:07:04 except that The Bible was replaced
00:07:09 It was only with the Thaw of '56
00:07:13 and we began to fraternize freely.
00:07:16 before I split, I need to visit
00:07:20 I never saw him.
00:07:22 He was born
00:07:24 I got the news
00:07:28 before they locked me up,
00:07:30 I lived in the seedy
00:07:33 I barely remember my parents.
00:07:37 enlisted in the Foreign Legion
00:07:43 I never found out
00:07:45 or because he was fed up with us.
00:07:48 Around that time my mother died.
00:07:52 I wasted my youth in the can
00:08:01 Moth, let's go.
00:08:09 They dubbed me Moth
00:08:13 I used to hide in closets
00:08:17 Once you get a nickname,
00:08:20 Sometime after '44,
00:08:22 I began to exercise vigorously
00:08:25 I read through
00:08:27 to get to the bottom of things
00:08:31 when I'd have to embrace
00:08:35 I'm the push-ups Tsar of the prison.
00:08:38 I'd go watch Dan Kolov
00:08:43 Those who haven't seen Dan Kolov
00:09:06 The zift released its flavor
00:09:11 And that was how
00:09:15 walked out to my freedom.
00:09:17 I got paroled
00:09:19 for introducing communist
00:09:23 I launched a propaganda campaign
00:09:26 and thoughtful idea.
00:09:28 In the corner of the canteen
00:09:30 I stockpiled all sorts of
00:09:33 including plowshares,
00:09:35 The idea suddenly dawned on me,
00:09:38 brand new civilian clothes, a pair of
00:09:42 They said I was reformed,
00:09:44 and let me go before my term was up.
00:09:49 Unfortunately, on my way out,
00:09:51 I bumped into that shit-face
00:09:56 I couldn't let him pass without
00:10:06 I unbuttoned my mouth
00:10:10 ""The end starts at the beginning."
00:10:12 ""The end starts at the beginning."
00:10:13 That thought I picked up
00:10:15 so I can say it when
00:10:18 I wanted to give the moment its due.
00:10:21 You can't let such moments
00:10:23 one leg after the other
00:10:26 Crossing the threshold is
00:10:28 Iike walking under the rainbow
00:11:20 The car reeks, a funky mixture
00:11:25 The private behind the wheel
00:11:31 Who?
00:11:33 Who?
00:11:35 Private!.
00:11:36 Step on it.
00:11:46 Where are we going?.
00:12:01 Where are we going?.
00:12:12 Who are you?
00:12:56 The public bath.
00:13:03 Seventeen o'clock.
00:13:09 Ladies
00:14:16 What do you want?.
00:14:19 I want you naked.
00:14:22 butt-naked.
00:16:14 During my first year in prison
00:16:20 He was soft and gentle on the inside,
00:16:23 We always took our meals together.
00:16:28 One day, during meal-time,
00:16:30 the Mutant, an asshole and
00:16:35 came up with his personal slave,
00:16:38 and they stood behind our backs.
00:16:40 The rickets took out a sheet of paper
00:16:42 and started reciting at the top
00:16:45 Valentine's love letter
00:16:48 To my master,
00:16:50 brother and dear friend,
00:16:54 my man most of all,
00:16:58 the first and last one
00:17:01 I can never be your bride,
00:17:05 but I love you with
00:17:10 Valentine.
00:17:25 It was then my former cellmate,
00:17:28 advised me not to write any letters,
00:17:32 because they were looking
00:17:34 to pick up a fight with me
00:17:37 Van Wurst-the Eye had a glass eye,
00:17:39 which would often pop out,
00:17:48 Van Wurst, Van Wurst, Van Wurst...
00:18:04 Chew him up.
00:18:35 Kill him!
00:18:47 Yes!
00:19:14 After dinner, before the bedtime
00:19:20 At first, Van Wurst
00:19:23 but with time
00:20:02 You look at the sky, and it looks
00:20:07 You're one dangerous man. With all
00:20:10 being dangerous keeps you safe.
00:20:13 If you're not dangerous in the can,
00:20:16 Is that why you poked your eye out?
00:20:21 No. That was an accident.
00:20:25 I lost it
00:20:29 The jewels were hidden in
00:20:34 I fumbled with it,
00:20:37 but the clock struck midnight.
00:20:40 The spring leaped
00:20:45 It ran out right there.
00:20:48 In Barcelona?
00:20:51 And they locked me up
00:20:54 a panopticon.
00:20:58 This eye here on the top
00:21:01 Panopticon?.
00:21:03 That's right. A round prison.
00:21:08 There was this watchtower
00:21:11 And cells all around it. No doors.
00:21:16 The wardens see everything.
00:21:20 Pan-opticon.
00:21:24 The eye that sees all.
00:21:28 The eye is the fastest thing, Moth.
00:21:31 Once you cast a glance,
00:21:34 it travels with the speed of light.
00:21:37 To hide from it,
00:21:40 you have to exceed that speed,
00:21:43 which is impossible by nature.
00:21:53 There I understood
00:21:58 On the way out of the panopticon,
00:22:01 ""Abandon all hope, ye who enter here."'
00:22:04 Ha. You get out of the can
00:22:09 Yes, Moth. Hope is a bird
00:22:14 If you let it free, it dies.
00:22:18 There's no hope
00:22:21 You have one?.
00:22:23 What is it?
00:22:25 When you take off for the tropics,
00:22:29 know that corals
00:22:31 They die when the filthy
00:22:36 I need peace.
00:22:39 To find peace, Moth, you have to cut
00:22:44 Especially with women.
00:22:46 Especially with the Woman.
00:22:50 Know that: man is a living coral,
00:22:54 until he's touched by the Woman.
00:22:56 When the Woman touches him,
00:23:01 Hell has already touched me.
00:23:05 In Hell or Paradise,
00:23:10 I fell in love with Ada
00:23:13 A tight-fitting,
00:23:16 the aroma of raw milk,
00:23:21 pupils of jet,
00:23:26 The crotch - invitingly loose,
00:23:32 Her thighs parted shyly,
00:23:40 Her eyes lingered on me,
00:23:52 Her voice was soft and silky
00:23:58 she pulled a hidden trigger
00:24:38 Did you come?
00:24:41 I unloaded,
00:24:46 So began our romance.
00:24:50 Moth, have you heard of
00:24:56 When they wire you up
00:24:59 Yes.
00:25:01 They wire you to a dynamo.
00:25:04 If you lie,
00:25:07 Lies turn the dynamo
00:25:11 The inventor of that wire
00:25:15 used to draw a comic series
00:25:19 who enslaved men
00:25:24 So, the comic-book guy
00:25:26 gave a scientific twist
00:25:31 and came up with the lie detector.
00:25:55 Slug.
00:25:58 The diamond, Moth.
00:26:01 My dick, Slug.
00:26:11 Stand still!.
00:26:15 Where did you hide it, boy?.
00:26:18 You hid it.
00:26:23 Fucking asshole.
00:26:27 Sir, yes, sir.
00:26:30 You found it.
00:26:33 You found it, you piece of shit.
00:26:48 Yes. I shoved it up my ass.
00:26:53 Is that so?
00:26:56 Go ahead. Search me.
00:27:06 Stick it inside.
00:27:09 We'll fix your memory circuit.
00:27:21 I bought a praying mantis in a jar
00:27:28 I wanted to buy a pair,
00:27:32 but the woman warned me that some day
00:27:38 So I dropped the idea.
00:27:42 On my strolls by the Canal,
00:27:46 I'd take her out of the jar
00:27:49 and regain her sense of freedom...
00:28:03 I gave the mantis to Ada
00:28:05 as a proof that I was crazy about her.
00:28:08 She fell in love with the insect.
00:28:28 Moth and Mantis - that's how we
00:28:32 among the local gangs.
00:28:38 I was good at boxing and won
00:28:42 Ada liked to watch me fight,
00:28:44 so we could make love
00:28:47 Fighting turns women on.
00:28:50 For a while we fooled around in
00:28:52 among refuse and excrement.
00:28:55 get our own place
00:28:58 but we needed money.
00:29:02 but dropped out of school
00:29:05 I dreamed about making it big
00:29:07 and writing an autobiography,
00:29:15 We got tattooed by a barber, an old
00:29:21 I asked for a large moth
00:29:26 she wanted a mantis
00:29:35 After that Ada decided
00:29:55 I'm pregnant.
00:29:57 I ripened on the spot.
00:30:00 We decided to rent an apartment.
00:30:03 We needed cash, so I took a day job
00:30:09 but for Ada, we had to see the Slug,
00:30:14 He found odd jobs.
00:30:21 He sent Ada off
00:30:24 His name was
00:30:26 a former white-guard.
00:30:30 He lived close
00:30:33 Slug had a plan.
00:30:35 Ada had to work for Bijou until
00:31:00 The safe is in the wall of the lobby.
00:31:02 The valuables are not in there
00:31:07 How did you find that out?
00:31:10 I eavesdropped.
00:31:13 Spit it out.
00:31:18 Where?.
00:31:25 An African statuette.
00:31:28 You kidding?.
00:31:31 Ever since he got the statuette,
00:31:34 when I tidy up
00:31:37 How big is it?
00:31:41 And the penis?
00:31:45 Is it heavy?.
00:31:47 How come the negro doesn't tip over?
00:31:50 So there's something hidden
00:31:52 That's what I was saying.
00:31:54 The other day I took it in my hands
00:31:59 bijou bristled up, told me
00:32:02 and I shouldn't get anywhere near it.
00:32:11 We'll lift it.
00:32:14 There's a way.
00:32:16 bijou goes
00:32:21 You have two days
00:32:25 In two days, tell me how?
00:32:28 Mount him.
00:32:31 You mount him.
00:32:36 bijou doesn't have a wiener.
00:32:39 I'm not. He told me so.
00:32:41 He told you?.
00:32:44 He was born in Odessa with a wiener.
00:32:46 His sister saw him naked
00:32:48 She asked about the thing
00:32:51 They told her it's something
00:32:54 The sister took a pair of scissors
00:32:58 That's an old story. I've heard it
00:33:03 You watch out they don't tell it
00:33:06 I'll be watching, Moth.
00:33:10 I'll be watching.
00:33:21 The day before the heist, Ada took
00:33:25 On his way out,
00:33:29 and rushed to the toilet,
00:33:39 That same Friday
00:33:41 we waited for Ada to signal
00:33:45 Aside from the statuette, we had
00:33:50 so it would look like a random
00:33:52 and Ada wouldn't be a suspect.
00:34:35 You sing and you live.
00:34:38 Or you float in the jar.
00:34:42 I don't know that song.
00:34:46 The police found the negro's
00:34:52 Empty. I didn't see a penis there.
00:34:56 You found it. There's nobody else.
00:35:00 There was no diamond.
00:35:04 I can make your life a living hell.
00:35:07 Don't push me. Don't.
00:35:11 There was no diamond, Slug.
00:35:15 Dinner.
00:36:29 You're hungry?
00:36:48 You finish it, insect.
00:37:27 Why didn't you rat me out?
00:37:31 Generosity?
00:37:33 I don't give a shit about you, Slug.
00:37:38 Where did you hide it, Moth?
00:37:51 You're finished.
00:38:04 You'll be out soon. What's the plan.
00:38:07 Simple.
00:38:10 I don't want to.
00:38:12 So what's your goal?.
00:38:15 Not to leave this time.
00:38:18 What do you mean?
00:38:21 Don't ask, you won't get it.
00:38:51 Moth, I want to give you something.
00:39:01 He gave me a postcard
00:39:02 with a savage-looking female,
00:39:06 Someone wrote on its back:
00:39:11 For them fornication is a travesty
00:39:15 You wrote that?.
00:39:19 I copied it down from an old book,
00:39:21 ""The Witch Hammer".
00:39:32 You look at the sky and it looks
00:39:38 Those were his last words.
00:39:42 the night before
00:39:45 The same night, I was digging
00:39:48 where the mummified leader and
00:39:50 Georgi Dimitrov,
00:39:54 I found the glass eye the next day.
00:39:56 Van Wurst had left it in my mattress
00:40:00 I still remember his words:
00:40:02 ""Moth, for the soul the eyes are
00:40:05 Iike peas under a princess's
00:40:10 They don't let her rest.
00:40:13 Van Wurst-The Eye was and remains
00:40:19 His real name was
00:40:23 After he took his life
00:40:28 there was no one left for me to leave
00:40:36 You drank enough poison
00:40:36 You drank enough poison
00:40:40 Slowly but surely.
00:40:43 So why did you have to poison me?.
00:40:48 Listen carefully, Moth.
00:40:52 This poison has an antidote.
00:40:56 And guess who has it?.
00:41:01 I do.
00:41:04 Did you think that up with your ass,
00:41:11 Instead of thinking with your ass,
00:41:13 why don't you play
00:41:17 Mockery of the people's anthems?.
00:41:23 Listen, Moth.
00:41:25 You tell me where you hid the stone,
00:41:29 and you leave this shithole alive.
00:41:34 Otherwise you stay
00:41:38 until you start cramping
00:41:58 Leonid, or Leo, as she called him
00:42:02 died of lockjaw.
00:42:05 Sounds terrible.
00:42:32 Moth?.
00:42:35 Raycho?
00:42:37 Raycho-The Skin - that's
00:42:40 We were great friends.
00:42:42 You're in deep shit, buddy,
00:42:46 very deep.
00:42:49 They told me to rub you sore
00:42:50 and throw you in that barrel
00:42:54 His dream was to become
00:42:56 When he got Snow-White and the Seven
00:42:59 he won the respect of all the kids
00:43:01 One day Raycho disappeared.
00:43:03 He was banging a gypsy girl
00:43:06 and rumor had it, her relatives
00:43:10 It turned out,
00:43:14 I was his best man at the wedding.
00:43:16 Get out of here, man.
00:43:22 Where?.
00:43:26 Run. Get lost.
00:43:30 Hit me with this bench,
00:45:22 Moth.
00:45:25 Enough.
00:45:40 Enjoy you bath, you filthy Moth!
00:45:46 The sergeant major's bosom
00:45:54 Nineteen o'clock.
00:45:59 Well, comrades,
00:46:10 Welcome to the hood.
00:46:53 Whoops, the chewing gum.
00:47:41 Give me some pretzel, comrade.
00:47:44 I need to deliver milk
00:47:59 Twenty o'clock.
00:48:01 Tobacco-stained female voices
00:48:06 Doctor's Office
00:48:12 A heady smell of cheap tobacco,
00:48:23 Comrade, are you drunk?
00:48:27 No.
00:48:30 We're rehearsing "Under the Yoke""
00:48:33 I'm playing Ognyanov,
00:48:36 Ognyanov?.
00:48:41 Look, that's the approach.
00:48:45 Stop shitting me.
00:48:48 Jolly as an old tart.
00:48:52 I mean it. We were rehearsing
00:48:55 Now I feel nauseous.
00:48:57 Ognyanov...
00:49:08 Her gaze scratches
00:49:13 That's one lame story.
00:49:15 We'll need to test you for alcohol.
00:49:20 Nicotine phlegm
00:49:25 Nurse, drain out Ognyanov.
00:49:29 Take his blood sample.
00:49:31 And urine sample.
00:49:34 Let's see
00:49:42 The nurse ogles me,
00:49:47 Follow me into the manipulation room.
00:50:01 You got a medical record?.
00:50:03 You don't think?
00:50:06 I recently moved into this
00:50:10 and now I work in the packaging
00:50:13 ""Malchika"?
00:50:32 You've got a large vein, comrade.
00:50:39 We urinate in the glass.
00:50:42 I'll do my best.
00:50:44 You're lucky the lab guy will process
00:50:49 He's an awfully sweet person.
00:50:51 And frankly, it wouldn't hurt at all
00:50:57 Did you hear
00:51:00 Who's that?
00:51:02 The one with the big boobies?
00:51:04 Yes.
00:51:06 who plays
00:51:08 In February she goes skiing.
00:51:11 She climbs the trail
00:51:15 but all of a sudden she needs to pee.
00:51:18 takes down her pants, and squats,
00:51:21 She loses her balance. The skis start
00:51:27 and Stomna goes flying down
00:51:30 She falls and breaks her ankle.
00:51:33 but manages to pull up her pants
00:51:36 and keeps her dignity. Otherwise -
00:51:40 A national actress
00:51:44 Yeah, right. As if I believed you.
00:51:47 A national actress
00:51:58 The Grey Horse
00:51:59 ""You are my mermaid,
00:52:03 I'm your drowning sailor.
00:52:07 You are my mermaid,
00:52:11 I'm your drowning sailor.
00:52:19 Weep, heart, oh weep,
00:52:22 weep for your alma
00:52:26 that nowhere else in the world
00:52:30 there are blue eyes
00:52:34 and blond hair like hers. "
00:52:46 Waiter, rum for the young fellow here.
00:52:50 Chug!
00:52:52 They smell of mastic and earwax.
00:52:55 Shit.
00:52:58 Who are you?
00:53:01 Grater
00:53:07 Listen up, buddy, I'll tell you
00:53:10 There was this big time embarrassment
00:53:14 So, Grater stuffs himself full
00:53:16 of fried beans, pickled cabbage,
00:53:19 His little wife
00:53:21 She grabs him at the door,
00:53:24 Ieads him into the dining room,
00:53:29 There's a knock on the door.
00:53:31 She goes to answer it,
00:53:33 Grater is full to bursting,
00:53:37 waiting for the surprise,
00:53:39 He shifts
00:53:42 comes off the chair,
00:53:48 To disperse it, he takes one side
00:53:52 He feels relieved for a moment.
00:53:54 And again... grrr, grrr.
00:53:59 And so he keeps on grating,
00:54:02 takes off his blindfold,
00:54:06 All around the table sit the guests
00:54:12 Imagine the embarrassment.
00:54:17 Have a bite. Have one.
00:54:22 Chug!
00:54:32 Twenty-one o'clock.
00:54:36 Hey, man.
00:55:00 A buddy of mine, Badjo,
00:55:05 He takes it for a test ride
00:55:07 but the front wheel jams.
00:55:11 The bike makes a somersault,
00:55:13 badjo flies off, and crashes into
00:55:22 He's slashed all over,
00:55:23 and... goes straight to the ER
00:55:26 Meanwhile, his wife soaks up
00:55:29 that has spilled on the floor
00:55:32 and throws them into the outhouse.
00:55:35 badjo gets home all bandaged up.
00:55:39 He takes a shot of brandy,
00:55:44 He lights up a cigarette...
00:55:48 and straight back to the ER.
00:55:51 Out of the dark bosom of Chaos.
00:55:54 What a thought!
00:55:57 I'll have it inscribed
00:55:59 and give it to my wife
00:56:02 Take it easy with the 8th of March,
00:56:07 Lom?
00:56:11 Hey, Emko, give them the scoop.
00:56:15 Last year on the 8th of March
00:56:21 a black cat
00:56:25 Down the street comes a truck
00:56:30 The driver sees the cat,
00:56:34 and enters the intersection
00:56:38 but at that moment, kindergarteners
00:56:41 and he rams on the brake.
00:56:43 A metal sheet goes flying out,
00:56:46 breaks the window glass
00:56:51 and chops off an entire row
00:56:56 The driver freezes in horror,
00:57:00 A group of shock-workers
00:57:03 having their hair done
00:57:07 Poor creatures.
00:57:13 Do you know what iridium is?.
00:57:19 Get me the report.
00:57:22 The poison is in your blood.
00:57:26 Do you have an idea when and how
00:57:30 Do you understand how serious this
00:57:33 There's no antidote for this poison.
00:57:37 You have been murdered!
00:57:40 Don't move.
00:57:43 Twenty-two o'clock.
00:57:47 The murdered one is still alive.
00:57:54 I'm done with.
00:57:56 I dash for
00:57:59 I was baptized here.
00:58:01 Ada and I exchanged vows here
00:58:06 Father Todor became our witness,
00:58:11 She wanted me to pledge my love
00:58:45 Man can't leave this place
00:58:49 As the soul takes her due
00:58:52 but leaves the body in return.
00:58:57 I was seized with shame.
00:59:00 Father, I didn't come here to take,
00:59:04 with his crooked finger
00:59:07 No! Whatever's taken stays taken.
00:59:27 You've fallen, son,
00:59:30 You've perished.
00:59:34 What path did you take
00:59:38 He recognized me.
00:59:42 You recognized me, father.
00:59:47 Of course, I recognized you.
00:59:49 It was this hand that baptized you.
00:59:53 Why did you come here?
00:59:57 To repent, father, for I am a goner.
01:00:00 We are all goners.
01:00:03 Where do you come from
01:00:06 I got my freedom today,
01:00:10 I'm going to die.
01:00:15 You talk in riddles. Something's
01:00:20 Confess and you'll feel better.
01:00:26 I have one sin only, which I've been
01:00:29 That sin will finish me.
01:00:33 but I swear I'm not a murderer.
01:00:35 The murderer is another
01:00:36 Why? Who tied your tongue?.
01:00:39 Nobody. It was for her.
01:00:42 She was pregnant. I needed to protect
01:00:46 boy, you're delirious.
01:00:49 I have atoned
01:00:53 The time for reckoning has come.
01:00:57 Tonight I'll draw the bottom line.
01:01:01 You're feverish.
01:01:04 Please, father, tell me where she is.
01:01:07 Give it up, boy.
01:01:09 After the communist coup
01:01:15 of a commissar.
01:01:20 Tell me, father, tell me.
01:01:24 With that slimy guy,
01:01:30 and then came out of the underground,
01:01:32 put on a uniform
01:01:38 The truth, father, say it.
01:01:40 Ah. You can't get to the truth, son.
01:01:45 Your truth is not her truth.
01:01:50 Where can I find her?. Where?.
01:01:52 At the cocktail lounge
01:01:56 Malko Tarnovo?.
01:01:59 The steep alleyway behind the palace.
01:02:03 You'll find it.
01:02:09 God be with you, Levo.
01:02:13 Live!
01:02:21 Death and the people's government
01:02:28 when suddenly I saw the city center
01:02:36 I said to myself:
01:02:40 Up there, on top of the world,
01:02:43 the red star shines in the heavens
01:02:47 The words of the prison-cell radio
01:02:51 Iight has conquered darkness.
01:02:55 I notice that I cast no shadow.
01:02:57 Am I dead,
01:03:02 Or am I standing
01:03:06 I feel elated, class conscious.
01:03:14 The mausoleum!
01:03:27 I fall prostrate
01:03:29 the gaps filled with
01:03:34 ""The Dictionary of Foreign Words""
01:03:36 helps me grasp the gist
01:03:39 mummy comes from the Arabic word
01:03:45 The Leader's mummy
01:03:48 so that I can taste it
01:03:52 receive it like a blessing,
01:03:58 The mummy -
01:04:14 What shall it be?
01:04:16 White slave?. Just right
01:04:21 Who's singing tonight?
01:04:24 Gilda. The girl in the photo.
01:04:28 She's got one more act
01:04:42 The bar looks dejected,
01:04:47 Cheers.
01:04:51 A bowtie on a bare neck?
01:04:55 No. I lost a bet and now
01:05:00 A bet?. What kind?
01:05:02 With a major from the military
01:05:05 He comes here because of Gilda.
01:05:07 We discuss, how should I say,
01:05:51 ""When the Kalirakra earthquake
01:05:56 I was still a young girl.
01:06:01 A great wave split the coast.
01:06:12 We're wicked, people say,
01:06:17 but I don't believe them.
01:06:23 The moon is to blame,
01:06:29 the full moon.
01:06:33 The moon carelessly plays
01:06:39 by the notes of lunar jazz.
01:06:45 The moon is to blame.
01:06:50 The mad moon.
01:07:27 When they killed the boy in Varna
01:07:32 who was in love with me,
01:07:37 they told me
01:07:43 I was a hopeless bitch.
01:07:48 You're wicked, people point at me,
01:07:53 but I don't believe them.
01:07:59 The moon is to blame,
01:08:05 the full moon.
01:08:09 The moon carelessly plays with us
01:08:15 by the notes of lunarjazz.
01:08:21 The moon is to blame,
01:08:26 the mad moon."'
01:08:39 There's this book called ""Candide"".
01:08:43 It asks
01:08:48 to drift around the world
01:08:52 and be raped
01:08:54 or to sit down on your warm butt
01:09:00 What is the human thing to do?
01:09:02 Hmm, you don't get to choose.
01:09:04 Man squats down in life's
01:09:07 but only after he's been raped
01:10:07 Coming in?.
01:10:19 The criminal always returns
01:10:23 Who owns all of this?
01:10:29 Slug?
01:10:33 Yes, but he doesn't live here.
01:10:35 Men don't live in parlors -
01:10:39 Did you sleep with him?.
01:10:44 To cover your rent?.
01:10:53 He believes the stone is here.
01:10:55 That's why nothing gets touched.
01:11:10 White slave.
01:12:26 The praying mantis.
01:12:30 She seems to be praying, while
01:12:37 When in heat, she takes on
01:12:40 and remains exquisitely still until
01:12:50 A little before the male ejaculates,
01:12:56 The beheaded male
01:12:59 in fact, his potency is enhanced.
01:13:01 Copulation is the reverse
01:14:24 Suddenly,
01:14:28 with the smell
01:14:39 I"m losing my mind.
01:15:01 Tell me about Leo.
01:15:04 Leo's gone.
01:15:09 Let's run away from here.
01:15:17 We'll need money. I'll take some from
01:15:22 There's no need. I know.
01:15:26 Where the stone is.
01:15:30 The diamond.
01:15:33 Where?.
01:15:36 In Bijou's grave.
01:15:43 So there was a stone after all.
01:15:46 Yes.
01:15:50 Slug had already
01:15:53 There wasn't a trace
01:15:56 A little before
01:15:58 my eyes fell on Lolushikin's ass.
01:16:03 The penis was in...
01:16:10 Slug had shot him in the chest.
01:16:13 He was in his death throes and
01:16:18 The penis fell out.
01:16:21 Just before they stormed in,
01:16:28 They were already knocking off
01:16:30 and Lolushkin was breathing his last.
01:16:34 I dropped the stone inside.
01:16:37 He swallowed it convulsively
01:16:40 And then?
01:16:43 I came to myself in the hospital.
01:16:47 Didn't they ask about the stone?.
01:16:49 No one suspected there was a stone.
01:16:52 Or that I had accomplices.
01:17:26 Gravediggers. Living Quarters.
01:17:26 Gravediggers. Living Quarters.
01:17:27 ""Death solves all problems -
01:17:31 Come on, come on.
01:17:32 Wait, wait.
01:17:38 Give me a good one.
01:17:42 Good evening. Who's in charge here?.
01:17:47 Peter Raychev. Deputy gravedigger.
01:17:52 The stench of rubber boots,
01:18:04 Over there.
01:18:06 First we visit the grave of our son
01:18:15 The grave is fresh.
01:18:16 Leonid
01:18:18 Someone was
01:18:21 The obituary says:
01:18:23 ""The dark years
01:18:26 were the death of his mother
01:18:32 I'm pregnant.
01:18:34 This is not my son's grave.
01:18:40 If this Leonid's mother
01:18:45 the fraud
01:18:49 I've never had a son.
01:18:53 She was lying to me all along.
01:18:57 She brought me
01:19:14 Moth.
01:19:18 I feel sick.
01:19:21 as if death wants to remove me from
01:19:26 and is now screwing it
01:19:30 Slug is standing next to Ada.
01:19:33 It doesn't matter anymore.
01:19:37 I'm looking at her,
01:19:39 the most volatile variable in life -
01:19:45 the female variable.
01:19:57 To bijou's grave, Moth.
01:19:59 Vladivostok Dmitrievich Lolushkin
01:20:52 Vengeance makes you feel good,
01:21:01 That was the last time I saw her.
01:21:08 The mantis is a special creature,
01:21:12 by which Nature prays
01:21:14 to forgive the fall of man.
01:21:29 It's butt-warm inside.
01:21:35 I overstuffed myself with shit,
01:21:39 It's time for me to go.
01:21:42 Don't worry, man.
01:21:45 The bigger the shit,
01:21:52 The moral damage,
01:21:57 You're a good man,
01:22:00 as earnest as Lenin.
01:22:05 I have one last wish.
01:22:09 Pass me the zift from the pocket,
01:22:12 so I can get a fresh taste
01:23:11 The moth.
01:23:16 Picture him flying.
01:23:20 He doesn't fly,
01:23:26 If you try to map his flight,
01:23:30 you'll get an inscrutable drawing.
01:23:35 My life was something of the sort,
01:23:44 Moth, who lived by chance
01:24:57 Six o'clock. Good morning.
01:25:04 ""Where are you,
01:25:07 where are you my homeland?
01:25:11 In front of us - Bulgaria,
01:25:14 behind us - the Danube.
01:25:18 In front of us - Bulgaria,
01:25:21 behind us - the Danube.
01:25:25 We've traveled many leagues
01:25:28 over water and land,
01:25:33 but our Soviet fatherland
01:25:35 we have not forgotten.
01:25:46 And under Balkan stars
01:25:49 we persistently recall
01:25:53 the Yaroslavl, Rezanski,
01:25:57 and Smolensky places.
01:26:07 We recall the brown eyes,
01:26:11 the quiet voices, the merry laughter.
01:26:14 Bulgaria is a nice country
