00:00:06,131 --> 00:00:11,778
THE DREAM OF A RIDICULOUS MAN
based on a story by F. Dostoyevsky

2
00:00:14,328 --> 00:00:15,969
A. Petrov

3
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:49,061
Everything was like in our world

4
00:00:49,291 --> 00:00:52,290
but glowed with majestic glory

5
00:00:53,609 --> 00:00:56,864
In our world, I have never seen
such beauty in Man

6
00:00:57,904 --> 00:01:01,349
Perhaps only in our children, in the
very first years of their age

7
00:01:02,982 --> 00:01:05,776
From my first glance on their faces,
I understood everything.

8
00:01:05,982 --> 00:01:06,565
Everything!

9
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,903
It was a world, not corrupted by
the sin of the Fall.

10
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,811
The people who lived there were
innocent

11
00:01:15,308 --> 00:01:17,401
I saw them myself, I understood them.

12
00:01:17,401 --> 00:01:18,418
I loved them!

13
00:01:18,634 --> 00:01:20,384
I suffered for them afterwards...

14
00:01:20,755 --> 00:01:23,143
A dream, my dear,

15
00:01:25,042 --> 00:01:28,416
is nonsense, hallucination.

16
00:01:42,100 --> 00:01:43,686
But how to create paradise...

17
00:01:44,500 --> 00:01:45,693
I don't know

18
00:01:47,005 --> 00:01:49,154
Because I can't express it in words

19
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:52,771
But it's all so simple

20
00:01:52,771 --> 00:01:54,356
In one day, in one hour

21
00:01:54,605 --> 00:01:56,779
Everything came to place at once

22
00:01:57,555 --> 00:01:59,684
The most important thing

23
00:02:00,045 --> 00:02:01,698
is to love others like yourself

24
00:02:02,253 --> 00:02:03,388
That is the most important thing

25
00:02:05,009 --> 00:02:06,831
Except that, you don't need anything.

26
00:02:13,054 --> 00:02:15,663
The truth became clear to me last November

27
00:02:15,663 --> 00:02:17,247
Namely, third of November

28
00:02:17,735 --> 00:02:20,166
I remember every instance of that day

29
00:02:21,462 --> 00:02:23,275
I aimed to kill myself that night

30
00:02:23,699 --> 00:02:25,290
And would have defiantly shot myself

31
00:02:25,408 --> 00:02:26,945
If not that girl

32
00:02:26,945 --> 00:02:27,574
Mister!

33
00:02:29,148 --> 00:02:29,881
There

34
00:02:30,566 --> 00:02:31,815
Mama

35
00:02:34,150 --> 00:02:35,374
Mister!

36
00:02:38,444 --> 00:02:39,404
Mister!

37
00:03:00,911 --> 00:03:02,701
It means nothing to me now

38
00:03:04,213 --> 00:03:06,308
In an hour or two all will end,

39
00:03:07,028 --> 00:03:08,884
And then what do I care of this girl,

40
00:03:08,884 --> 00:03:10,338
or the whole world.

41
00:03:11,734 --> 00:03:15,189
I will become null.

42
00:03:16,948 --> 00:03:19,097
Absolute null!

43
00:03:22,705 --> 00:03:23,711
Bugger off!

44
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:39,274
Null...

45
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,351
Absolute null!

46
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,671
You were denied your tea,
for you're a debtor.

47
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:49,754
Look at this lodger!

48
00:03:55,152 --> 00:03:56,427
Who'd that?

49
00:04:08,670 --> 00:04:10,869
Now, life and world depend on me

50
00:04:12,162 --> 00:04:13,852
I shoot myself and the world is gone

51
00:04:13,852 --> 00:04:15,124
at least for me

52
00:04:16,937 --> 00:04:19,999
I also thought; what if I lived on the
moon or Mars before

53
00:04:19,999 --> 00:04:22,838
And would have done there some
dishonest deed

54
00:04:22,838 --> 00:04:25,718
Would I care about it from here or not?!

55
00:04:29,524 --> 00:04:31,013
And that point I fell asleep

56
00:04:32,565 --> 00:04:34,323
Slipped into sleep unnoticed

57
00:04:34,787 --> 00:04:38,171
continuing to ponder at the same matter

58
00:05:21,045 --> 00:05:24,363
Seems there is life after the grave...

59
00:06:10,562 --> 00:06:12,812
Could it be that this Earth is the same as ours?

60
00:06:13,649 --> 00:06:16,264
How can such a repeat be possible?

61
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:17,895
And what for?

62
00:08:18,577 --> 00:08:21,050
They were in love with one another

63
00:08:21,894 --> 00:08:24,438
All was whole, all was shared

64
00:08:33,259 --> 00:08:35,111
They had love, children were born.

65
00:08:35,893 --> 00:08:40,117
But never have I noticed urges of that
cruel pleasure-seeking

66
00:08:40,117 --> 00:08:43,012
which afflicts almost all inhabitants of
our Earth

67
00:08:43,688 --> 00:08:45,122
Each and every one.

68
00:08:45,538 --> 00:08:51,035
And serve as almost the sole origin
of humanity's sins

69
00:09:27,300 --> 00:09:29,813
Is it really important if it's a dream or not,

70
00:09:30,068 --> 00:09:33,331
If this dream showed me the truth

71
00:09:37,321 --> 00:09:40,487
How could me small heart, and capricious
insignificant brain

72
00:09:40,487 --> 00:09:44,286
Rise to such a revelation of truth?

73
00:09:47,290 --> 00:09:48,765
I saw them myself!

74
00:09:51,021 --> 00:09:53,213
I understood them and was convinced.

75
00:09:53,593 --> 00:09:54,820
I loved them!

76
00:09:55,526 --> 00:09:57,293
I suffered for them afterwards

77
00:11:09,605 --> 00:11:13,136
They mock me by saying it was just a dream

78
00:11:16,407 --> 00:11:21,182
But what does it matter that it was a dream,
if it showed me the truth

79
00:11:22,007 --> 00:11:23,441
I saw the truth!

80
00:11:24,321 --> 00:11:27,920
I saw it, and now I know people can be
wonderful and happy

81
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,558
without losing the capacity to live on earth.

82
00:11:32,750 --> 00:11:35,582
And they laugh at this belief of mine.

83
00:11:40,849 --> 00:11:42,871
Maybe, it wasn't a dream at all

84
00:11:43,511 --> 00:11:45,000
Until now, I hid it,

85
00:11:45,547 --> 00:11:47,526
but now will tell also that truth

86
00:11:48,007 --> 00:11:49,178
The thing is, I...

87
00:11:52,017 --> 00:11:54,399
corrupted them all.

88
00:16:41,850 --> 00:16:47,875
Let us be evil and unjust,

89
00:16:47,875 --> 00:16:49,907
as long as we know it

90
00:16:50,053 --> 00:16:52,499
But we have science

91
00:16:53,019 --> 00:16:54,827
And through it

92
00:16:54,827 --> 00:16:57,560
We will find the truth again

93
00:16:58,175 --> 00:17:01,548
But this time, we will accept it consciously

94
00:17:01,664 --> 00:17:04,724
With knowledge, which is higher than feeling

95
00:17:04,724 --> 00:17:09,026
The knowledge of life is higher than life

96
00:17:09,539 --> 00:17:12,780
Each one is part of the whole

97
00:17:12,780 --> 00:17:15,877
And the whole is part of each one

98
00:17:46,812 --> 00:17:48,304
Who's there?

99
00:17:48,678 --> 00:17:50,989
Who's there?

100
00:18:31,148 --> 00:18:34,447
WHO'S HERE?

101
00:18:49,876 --> 00:18:53,429
Dream, child's nonsense, hallucination

102
00:18:54,015 --> 00:18:57,044
A dream. What is a dream?

103
00:18:57,884 --> 00:18:59,601
What? Life is not a dream?

104
00:19:00,496 --> 00:19:02,006
Let it be a dream!

105
00:19:02,807 --> 00:19:05,141
But this life, that you esteem so highly

106
00:19:05,141 --> 00:19:06,821
I wanted to snuff out by suicide,

107
00:19:07,451 --> 00:19:08,603
but this dream

108
00:19:10,278 --> 00:19:15,653
showed me a new, greater, rejuvenated life

109
00:19:52,568 --> 00:19:55,160
THE END
