The Stronghold (2017) - full transcript

The Stronghold is a Ukrainian adventure/fantasy film based on the same-name book. A present-day schoolboy Vit'ko goes a thousand years into past.

Oh! That s Vovchyk.

I won t go.

The next solar eclipse
won t come anytime soon.

There are mountains there.

Heights.

Once your dad dragged me
to the same mountains.

Very high. I felt dizzy.

Maybe that wasn t
because of heights.

Maybe.

But I used to be very
easily frightened.

So your father
hugged me and said:



Don t be afraid! I am here.

You know, I feel
he s still here.

Always.

I know.

Where are you? The bus
is already there.

- I m almost out.
- Sandwiches!

It s waiting only for you.

I m coming, coming.

- Okay, Vitya, we ve just left.
- Your plane!

Vovchyk, I am outside.

O, Ancient Spirits!

The Stone of Power is near.

I know.

Help me to find it.



And to put the whole
world on its knees.

It s flying!

Look! So cool...

Nice stuff. Where
did you buy it?

Dude, what do you mean, buy it?
Vitya made it himself.

Dude, what do you mean, buy it?
Vitya made it himself.
Seriously?

Seriously?

Vitya, tell him.

I made it myself.

Good. Geniuses. Hah!

Now up to the mountain,
without stops.

Or somebody wants to miss
a cool solar eclipse

happening once every one
hundred years

No! No...

No! No...
So move it!

So move it!

Vitya, look at this thing.

And I took my sunglasses.

Let me...

Here.

Nah...

When the sun hides,
that will be it!

So why am I dragging all these
crackers with me?

Quiet!

When apocalypse comes
we ll put up some fireworks,

that s gonna be a cool party!

Zombie party! Zombie Vovchyk!

This is real apocalypse.

Hey, everyone! Attention!

There is a hanging
bridge in front of us.

There s nothing complicated,
but remember some rules:

Follow me one by one, and don t
look down! Any questions?

No!

Let s go!

Now you re gonna fall
down and get killed.

Go then! I ll follow you.

Careful!

Oh, oh, oh! Don t do that!

Follow me! It s not
scary, ho, ho, ho!

I looked: the height
Oh, ohis ridiculous. that!

I won t go I guess.

What I m
telling you, there s nothing to
be afraid of.

Dude, you ll make it.

Enough drinking!

You go forward, and
I ll follow you.

I ll be your lifeline
just in case.

Hey! What s happening there?

All cool! We re coming!

Are you okay there?

What happened

Phew. Okay then.

The expedition is canceled:
our genius has wet himself!

Are you stuck there or what?

Are you gonna watch the
eclipse over there?

Vitya! Where are you going?!

Forget those idiots!

Vitko! Roger!

Base calling, roger.

We are cool guys,

and who doubts it
will get a punch in the face!

Really!

Let s beat those idiots up!

I ll be holding them, and you...

The sun...

What is this?

Looks like an earthquake.

Help us please!

Heeeeeelp!

Your hand! Give me your hand!

THE STRONGHOLD

Vovchyk!

Here.

Heeeere!

Rosanka...

Here!

Rosanka...

Everyone follow me!

Guys, come here.

Don t be shy.

Some to this one...

To this one...

And to this one...

Now go quickly to your mom!

Take him!

Veles!

Go, go!

Halt!

It s always like this
with these cumans.

They see water, they
jump in to bathe.

And you are tough!

You didn t get scared.

Go! Hop!

Who is he?

Well... He saved me
near the Gloomy Rock.

What... have you
left the stronghold?

Uncle Ilko...

I forbid you to leave the
stronghold on your own. Heard
me?

Well, I...

Done something again,
you curly misfit?

Tell me.

Ah! Well, I rode out and went up
to the Gloomy Rock, just by
chance...

Then I looked around and saw
such great flowers!

Uh-huh. Flowers...

Flowers! And the cumans were
trampling them.

And I got so angry,
listen, so angry...

I take one cuman like this,

the second, the third one and
threw almost all of them away.

But here suddenly...

It s... Andak himself!

Andak!

Well, this cuman khan.

And he s like this, and
I m almost, you know...

And this one rolls down
from the mountain, hooch!

Vovchyk?!

Huh?

Not Vovchyk.

You, move away from him!

Oh. Who are you?

Where am I?

Is this some kind of a joke?

He s got a funny
way of speaking.

Could he be a cuman spy?

Spy! Beat him!

That s enough talking.

Veles will show
everything tomorrow.

Aha. Get him to the marshes.

Hey, hey... heyyy... Where
are you dragging me to? Hey!

Great khan?

Your spirits have let me down.

What happened?

Wasn t that Rymov guy in
the place I pointed out?

He was. But a guy in strange
clothing prevented me from
killing him.

A strange guy?

Did he have a sign
like this on him?

Yes. A dragon.

He had the same one on his back.

Great khan, he has finally come!

This is the messenger from the
spirits to give us infinite
power.

Hey!

Why have you come?

I brought you some milk.

Who are you?

Olenka.

I saw Oleshko bring you,

and grandfather told me to
check on you in the marshes.

So... are you gonna
have milk or not?

Where am I?

Probably in the barn.

What place is this?

Rymiv.

Rymiv?

This is the name
of our stronghold

defending Rus from the cumans.

Rus?!

Which year is this?

You are weird.

1120 AD.

1120...

Dang!

What kind of spy are you?

I am no spy!

That s what I am saying,
you are a lousy spy.

And I am saying I am not a spy.

And I am saying I am not a spy.
Look at him: just arrived, and
he already has girls running
cirlces around him.

Look at him: just arrived, and
he already has girls running
cirlces around him.

- Hm!
- Hm!

You are...

I have...

come to say thank you.

I have to come back home.

My friend might die there...

You... Don t be sad!

If you make Veles's check,
everything s gonna be alright!

If Veles has let you go alive,
you re one of us.

Here s your bag!

What is your name?

Vitya.

And I am Illya,

this is Dobrynya, and this is
our wise man, grandfather Ovsiy,

and you already know Oleshko.

Tell me your story.

First I was flying somewhere in
the darkness, and then there was
a flash!

Everything froze, as
if the time stopped.

Suddenly something crashed
and I flew out of that rock.

The guy got hit big time.

This is called a megaphone.

I brought it from my world:
from the future.

Wh

This is plastic. Chinese
are making those.

So you re saying you re
from the future?

I live a thousand years ahead.

And I really have to come back.

To find a way how to do it.

What will you say, grandfather?

What is there to say?

We have to think.

For now you ll live
at Milanka s place,

my sister s, and then we ll see.

I ll take him there!

Don t sneak around in my garden.

What are you talking
about, grandfather?

I know what, misfit.
Tread lightly.

Well, let s go.

Ah... Good day to you!

Uncle Ilko sent him to you.

To live here for a while.

Come in, sonny.

You ll call me aunt Milanka,

and this is my daughter Rosanka.

And what is your name?

Vitya.

Come on, let s eat
Rosanka s dumplings!

She s made some good ones.

Let s go, let s go!

Oleshko! Call Illya and Dobrynya
and come for supper.

We will!

Well?

Khm...

this is for you...

Rosanka!

Stopping halfway again?

Orlyk, looks like
you re always hungry!

Well

Hush! Quiet, Vitko
is sleeping there!

And I am eating instead of him!

May I?

Grandfather Ovsiy, come in!

Here, I ve gathered some.

Oh, look at them apples!

I can take care of
the trees alright...

Chinese make those...

Put it back!

Are you out of your
mind, grandfather?

And who broke my
apple

He s been walking around my
garden for three nights in a
row, the filthy thief...

Rosanka, tell him I didn't come
for apples, okay?

Shut up, Oleshko.

You re thick, that s
all I can say.

In our sleep and waking hours

we have to keep our land safe...

And in the darkest times

we won t fall down
under black rain...

- We'll stand side...
- Great.

- ...by side...
- This is our favorite.

- ...with our swords and
shields. - We sing it when we
feel good.

Or when it's really hard.

I've been to see Veles today.

I've found out something.

When there's a sign on the sky,

and night comes to visit day,
the hole will open up

and take you to the same moment
you came from.

When will this
eclipse happen then?

Who knows: maybe tomorrow,
maybe in a hundred years.

Veles also said you can open
the hole by force,

but only the magi
know how to do it.

It s hard to find these magi,

and if you do, they ll check
you in and out.

It s not hard to find them!

I know a place...
With tons of magi...

So... let s go there?!

Now you can t leave Rymiv,

because the steppe
is full of cumans...

Cool...

Boo!

Oleshko!

You told me you knew where
to look for a magus.

Well... I did.

I want to...

I need to get there.

You can get there, it s just...

there s no point in doing it...

Why?

All people know the magus won t
say anything if you don t pass
his tests.

Which tests?

What do you mean?
Test of sword, arrow, mind...

I would try.

We can try.

Gift!

Don t be so scared!

This is Tugaryn. He s a cuman.

He s a bit... He-he.

I caught him!

Why are you standing there?

Jump onto the horse! Go!

Gift.

You re a great rider!
How?... Oh!

And now we have to aim here.

Stronger...

Hop!

Oh!

Well! As you can see,

you haven t passed the test.

Oleshko, can you teach me?

I don t know...

That meganome of yours, or what
you may call it, do you really
need it?

If you help me with lessons,

the megaphone is yours.

So we ll start tomorrow!

Okay.

Okay means good.

Everything is okay, dude!

Dude?!

Dude.

Dude!

Dude.

One, two!

One, two, three!

Cool photography!

Cool!

Oooh yeah!

Oooh yeah!

It s burning! Can you see it?

Wham! Wham! Wham!

Hold tighter!

Have you seen how
big this sword is?

Wow!

Here.

Oh! You re...

Sorry!

Right onto my leg...

So how do I wave this thing?

Murovets likes it.

Murovets

Our uncle Ilko.

He was born in Moroviysk...

Wait, wait... isn t Dobrynya
Mykytovych by any chance?

Mykytovych, that s right.

Are you kidding me?
Where s Alyosha Popovych then?

Alyosha, Kalyosha!

You can call yourself that.

So it s you?

I am Popovych, no Alyosha.

Oleshko, you won t believe it:
everybody knows about you in our
world!

They tell fairy tales about you
to children.

So am I known in your world?

You are! You are a knight
from a fairy tale!

I am a fairytale knight!

Cool! I should
tell Rosanka that.

So that she knows who
she s dealing with.

Looks like the guy has gotten
the hang of it...

This was awesome!

Dude! You hit it well!

I told you I d teach
you, so I did.

So where s my meganome?

Orlyk. Orlyk.

Turn it on. See?
It s written there.

So are you gonna
show me the way?

Hm...

So this is Rymiv.

Here s a field.

There s a forest behind
the field. Here...

That s all.

Why do you...?

I need a pen.
I use it to write in a notebook.

Notebook?

Forget it.

But not a word about
this to Illya!

Rosan... Rosanka...

Turn it on...

ROSAN...!

Who s there? Come on!

- Mom...

Probably grandfather Ovsiy came
up with something again.

Go to bed...

Hey! Rosanka!

Are you crazy?

Why are you shouting
all over Rymiv?

Can you imagine?

I am a fairytale knight! Huh?

Uh-huh... Fairytale.

When are you gonna
use your head?

I do. I...

I am...

Look!

Wait.

How does it work like that?

Shall we go to the
lake? I ll tell you.

- To the lake...
- Ah! Ah!

- Coming! I m coming!
- Come back to the house!

Let s go. I ll tell you.

I won t wander around the lakes
with you, don t even bother to
ask me!

You are our eyes. We ll see
when the time comes to act.

What... what s up with you?

I could shoot you!

What s up? Nothing.

I am gathering mushrooms,
what about you?

I am going to the magus.

I have to go home. Understand?

By the way. Do you...
do you know where this is?

Well... looks like
we ve arrived.

Who!

This is...

This is me.

Are you the magus, mister?

Why have you come?

How do I get back home?

To my time?

Without waiting for the eclipse?

Knowledge for free?!!! ...

Then test me! I am ready!

Reveal your fears!

The most secret ones!

If you tell me the wrong thing,

you ll stay in my world forever!

Your time has started...

Once we went to the mountains
with my parents...

There was a very
high bridge there...

There was an accident and...

our car fell down.

And we were falling...
and I was screaming...

screaming... screaming...

I am still scared.

I am very afraid of heights.

And that is why I
didn t save my friend.

There is a Perun
stone in the world.

It is able to lead you
between centuries.

But not every mortal human
is able to find it.

And where do I look for it?

Where the wingless
make their nests.

You ll see it when you
straddle the wind.

Only someone able to touch
another heart with his own

can do it.

But remember: that ancient force

spreads misery and evil around.

Where is he

What do you mean?
We are alone here.

How much time have
I been absent?

What? You are
standing next to me.

Let s go. Let s go
away from here.

He said I have to find
some Perun stone.

And I am to look for it where
the wingless make their nests.

And I ll see it when
I straddle the wind.

What does this hodge

Where the wingless
make their nests...

We have a village! It s
called the Stork Village!

Cool.

And it seems it s warmer here.

So this is Stork Village.

People here are kind
and a bit weird.

They cannot get angry or
jealous, they don t go to war.

They are like children.

They say they are
descended from storks.

That was a very long time ago...

But... how do we
find the stone here?

We need to...

What?

Straddle the wind.

Great.

- Great.
- Follow it!

Is it cold?

It s not a Stork Village, it s
some kind of a Walrus Village.

I ll try to go deeper.

Got it!

The little devil found
something we need!

Cumans! CUMANS! Run
for your life!

Stork Village is burning!

Dobrynya and I will enter from
the other side.

And you, Oleshko,
will stay here as a boss.

Oh yeah!

Follow me!

Ho-ho!

Just look how nicely we got in.

Hot... I ll take this
piece of iron off.

What is there s an arrow?

If I get an arrow in
the head, so be it.

These are ours.

Boo!

Oh yeah!

Look!

One, three, seven, twenty...

Seventeen...

There s gonna be a little scar.

Eighteen.

Dang!

You were told not to!
Why have you come?

Grandpa, we have, you know...

I ll show you grandpa !
I ll show you!

Okay, grandfather, let
the children eat.

Eat and come back to the house.

And you are not to leave it
for three days!

Grandfather, we have to return
the guy to his place.

You ll go to the Gloomy Rock
tomorrow at dawn.

I hope Perun stone helps you.

Lord, we haven t made it in
time. The Rymiv people arrived,
and the guy...

Lord, we haven t made it in
time. The Rymiv people arrived,
and the guy...
Shut your face!

Shut your face!

Have you lured me into a
trap set by Rymiv people?!

I don t know everything, lord,

but Raven saw a guy
with a stone there...

I lost a whole unit of my
warriors because of you!

I am sick and tired
of your mistakes.

Without me, the power won t come
into khan s hands.

I ll bring the stone to you.

Or maybe I...

Shucks. Doesn t work.

There s some trick here.

Magus was also saying
about some hearts.

To release the power.

But how?

There is no power in it.

There is an idea.

There is an idea.
Perun is a master of thunder
and lightnings.

Perun is a master of thunder
and lightnings.

We have to wait for
a thunderstorm.

Maybe it fills the Perun
stone with power.

What about me..? Let me hold it.

Okay, I ve changed my mind.

The stone hasn t worked.

Okay...

Don t go there!

There s no point in wandering
around until you re done
sorting!

You ll know better next time
to disobey grandfather.

Ah! It s you.

I wanted to say that you
shouldn t have punished Olenka.

I cajoled her into
showing me the way.

Hah, you cajoled her
into showing the way,

and I, into sorting beans!
Maybe that ll do her good!

Can I look?

There s nothing for
you to look at!

But these wings
here are not right.

You cannot fly using those.

Why so?

Here! Look.

How did you manage it?

Very simple: aerodynamics!

Is this some kind of magic?

No, this is science.

I want to make wings

so that our guys drop like
vultures on cumans heads.

We can do that, but you ll have
to fly off the mountain.

Off the mountain?

The tower looks
different from here.

Was it really named
in honor of a knight?

There is a legend about it.
Do you believe in legends?

I used not to, but now...

It was a long time ago.

There once lived in our land
a knight named Tverdynya.

And there was a girl
who he loved, Zoryana.

They decided to get married.

But on the very same day

Zoryana went to a dark
forest and never came back.

Tverdynya looked for her in
the thicket for a long time

but didn t find her.

Pain and desperation
filled his heart.

So he ripped it out from his
chest and threw it into the
wilds

so that it was closer
to his loved one.

And in the same moment he turned
into a stone fortress.

And his heart also
turned into a stone.

Who finds that stone heart

will meet his true love.

Or find a lost one.

How?

Well... Nobody knows.

But I believe that it exists.

This is for you.

Vitya, you are...

you are special.

Stone of power, make
your way towards me.

I am calling you! Come!

If somebody told me I d be
making this stuff...

This stuff meaning?

This stuff! The
device for flying.

Delta-delta-nape!

Delta plane.

Ah.

Since childhood,
I ve wanted to see a human fly.

First I tried it myself:

I made wings from planks and
feathers and jumped from the
trees.

Oh! See?

Oh. Oh.

Wow. So was this after the fall?

Not after the fall,
after the flight!

A short flight.

Hello.

Uncle Ilko has been calling you.

He told you to come immediately.

Why so quickly?

I don t know...

What happened?

We took a hostage.
And we ve found out something.

It turns out, they didn t attack
Stork Village by accident.

They were looking for...

a guy with a stone there.

How do they know about me?

This I don t know.

But if Andak himself
is hunting the stone,

he doesn t need it for good
deeds, that s for sure.

We have to hide the
stone somewhere.

Let me hide the stone!

Or... I can go hide...

Do so. Let s go.

Guys! Come eat some nuts.

No time.

Ah. Whatever...

It s not there.

- The stone has disappeared!

Are you out of your mind, woman?

This is a magic artefact.

Heard it? A magic antiduck.

And you crack nuts with it...

Ah... Well...

We have to hide it better.

It should be a place

so that Milanka, cumans

or other wrongdoers
never get to it.

There is a place like
that. Over there!

Come with me.

I won t go there.

That place is the safest.

So hide it yourself.

Fear favors the lonely.
It overcomes them easily.

And when you re
afraid of something,

just imagine there are friends
next you, friends you love,

and the fear will disappear!

You are not alone here, sonny.

The whole Rymiv is with you.
All of your land.

Onwards!

We are there!

Hello, grandfather!

What is it, stuck down there?

Hush! Or you ll get stuck!

My hand is still strong!

Will you be able to come out?

Well

Scared, but not that much!

I hope the stone gets
filled with power.

It needs a thunderstorm.

The time has come.

The thunderstorm comes, finally!

Vitya, remember grandfather
didn t let me leave the house

and told me to sort
beans from peas?

Uh-huh...

Maybe they are
better off together?

And I am dividing them apart.

Yes, Olenka, that s some real
tragedy: the parting of beans
and peas.

You re a cold, rude and
disgusting creature!

I used to be special
not that long ago...

Hail...

Wait a second...

You re very brave.

Halt! Halt, or I ll shoot!

Tugarkan!

A gift.

Alive?

Brother!

I see you haven t changed.

Get your hands off me.

Brother!

These are gifts for you.

Enough! Go away.

Servant!

Take him away, I don t
want to see him.

And change his clothes!

The gods have turned
their backs on me.

No, great khan.

Gods are with us.

With us, my lord!

Uh-huh. Now!

What happened?

Perun stone has disappeared.

How?!

Looks like Tugaryn
has stolen it.

So cumans have the stone?!

And how do we take it back?

What do you mean, how?
We steal it by night.

Oleshko, I m not into
jokes at the moment!

Spread some mud over
your face and steal it.

Oleshko is right, though
he s still a misfit.

Right?

You can t really make it
to cumans camp...

But if you use a delta plane...!

What about the face?

We ll fix your face!

We have to finish the delta
plane as soon as possible.

Okay! What do I do?

Don t get in the way.

I can do that.

That s some delta plane!

Cool...

We only have to paint it black,

so that it s not
visible by night.

Tomorrow Olenka and I will bring
some mud from the marshes,

and you and Oleshko should take
the flyer to Tverdynya.

We ll paint it there.

And that s all for today.

So where s the promised power?

Oh great khan, power has to be
breathed into the stone.

And only the one who found it is
able to do it.

Oleshko, all covered in mud

will fly right into the tent
and steal the stone.

So will Vitya come
back home then?

He will...

Should I gather some berries
for him, for the road?

Go ahead.

Hey!

Well, misfits, are you tired?

Oh, you misfits!

Stooop!

Faster.

Grandfather is there!
They brought him, he s wounded!

Grandfather!

She was taken away.

Who was taken away, grandfather?

Olenka?

Yes.

Now we...

Guys, come on!

Grandfather, we ll take you
to Milanka: she ll heal you!

Don t!

Leave me be.

This is...

this is my time.

Save Olenka!

I couldn t. I didn t manage.

Save her,

so that I could sleep better
on the other side...

Vitya!

Too bad I won t see

how our guys fly like vultures.

And you have to
overcome your fear.

It s no good dragging it after
you for your whole life.

Grandfather, grandfather...

forgive me:

I took your apples...

You son of a bitch.

When are you gonna
grow up, misfits?

I forgive you...

Grandfather...

Grandfather?..

Grandfather!

We ve caught him!..

Who are you?

Me?.. Olenka.

Lord, she had a sign...

Don t!

Take him away!

Don t! Don t.

What?

Vitya?!

Vitya!

I ve got a plan.

And grandfather!

Where is grandfather?

No!

This can t be! No!

The human dragon did
the right thing!

Hold it!

Little devil,

fill the stone with power!

Do it!

Okay, okay...

But I need my backpack...

Bag. I need my bag.

Give it back.

Now I m gonna do magic...

What does he have in mind?

This is some sorcery...

London is the captial of
Great Britain

Who is absent today?

Don't worry, be happy

Either you do what
is to be done,

or she dies.

I grant you another attempt...
the last one.

I ll do it.

But promise you won t kill us.

If you bring the stone to life,

I won t kill either
you or the girl.

I give khan s word.

Happy now?

How...

How do I bring you to life?

Quick!

Magus.

What was he saying?

That s it! Time is up!

Vitya, come on...

Heart to heart...

Stop!

Heart to heart.

Heart to heart.

Power is in the stone.

Finally.

We only have to
thank our guests.

You gave khan s word
you won t kill us.

I won t kill you.

Call Tugarkan!

Greetings, brother!
Can you help me?

Tugarkan help.

I gave my word

not to kill these two ones.

And khan s word is the law!

So do it for me...

Kill them!

Tugarkan no kill.

Tugarkan...

You don t want to make
your brother sad, right?

This will be your
gift for me, brother.

Gift...

Yes. Gift.

Don t let me down.

Gift...

Now the whole world
will be at my feet!

Vitya!

Tugarkan!

Forgive me!

Quick!

Quick!

Quick! Quick!

Quick!

This is for you...

A gift.

Gift...

Gift...

How did you dare?!

Brother!

Gift, look, gift!

You ve betrayed me!

Gift.

Looks like we ve run away.

We can have a rest...

Come on.

How are you?

Thanks for coming to get me.

I couldn t leave you there.

Oleshko?

And we were just on
the way to save you!

I wanted to do it
like this hop!

I don t know what it was,

but the noise was spectacular.

That was something big.

Then we ll have to fight
not only cumans...

We ll prepare serious weapons.

We ve got little time.
Let s get to work.

Holy mother...

The time has come!

What is this monster?

This is a golem.

A huge stone warrior.

Onwards!

Where do we hit it?

Keep calm. We know
how to greet it.

Fire!

A fiery dude alright!

More!

Got you, skyscraper?!

To the hiding place!
Everyone to the hiding place!

Can you swim, you
piece of stone?

We have to get people out.

No need to get anyone out:
I ll do everything.

Oleshko! What are
you going to do?

Oleshko! What are
you going to do?
Oleshko!

Oleshko!

I ll go on my own now, Orlyk.

And you, if I don t manage...

tell Rosanka I love her!

You ll tell her in some
horse language of yours.

And now go to the stronghold.

The fairytaile knight

from Rymiv

goes into battle!

Against...

Are you a boy or a girl?

Missed!

I am here!

What if I do this?

Dude! You are not
trying hard enough.

Friend, maybe we should
come for his rescue?

No, wait...

I think I understand what
he s trying to do.

Hey there!

Move your stones!

Veles, are you here?!

Golem is done.

Daughter!

Oleshko...

I ve come.

You called me to
come to the lake...

and I did...

He died like a real knight.

Somebody died?!

Oleshko?

Oleshko!

Alive! Alive, thank God!

A cool one, for sure!

Fairytale knights don t die!

And stone idiots do!

Look, a flower!

Vitya!

The sun...

This is a celestial sign!

Yes! This is the eclipse!

You have to come back!

Hurry to the horse!

This is a good sign. Get ready.

Olenka,

I wanted to tell you...

Here, take it.

Well... this is it.

What about the cumans?

We ll deal with them. At least
we brought the giant down.

Goodbye...

Come on, hey, hey, hey!

Don t be sad, child...

It has to be so.

Goodbye...

They noticed there was no gate!

To the stronghold!

Oleshko! To the mountain!

Shields!

Brothers, truth is behind us!

Yeees!

Power is behind us!

Yeees!

God is with us!

Yeees!

Because we re on our own land!
We ll stand!

Yeees!

Here!

Oh, that one flew out alright.

Go back.

Go back. Go back!

What, have you torn
up their saddles?

Yeees!

Golem.

He has risen!

He has risen!

Oleshko, take children and women
to grandfather s cellar:

that stone won t reach
them there for sure.

So, friend,

have we served Rymiv well?

We have, friend.

God has seen everything.

We ll serve it for
the last time.

Everyone to grandfather s
cellar! Here...

Quick, quick.

Come on, girls, come on, ladies.

- Everyone there... everyone
will fit... - What s gonna
happen now?

Vitko?

Stop! I ve got an idea!

Oleshko, help me.

I m not here alone.

I am not here alone!

All of Rymiv is with me!

I am not here alone!

I am not... here... alone!

- Go, go, go...
- Oh my God, look!

This can t be!

I am flying!

Cool!

Oh dear God...

Careful!

On this land, which
has always been ours,

We live and love.

Give it, my God,

An angel with powerful wings.

And when the hard times come,

We won t fall down
under black rain.

We will stand side by side

With our shields and swords.

Olenka!

That was cool, right?

Give me the stone back.

Give it back and
I ll let you go.

Come on.

Fetch!

You!

I ve hardly managed
to climb here.

Almost fell twice.

Andachyk!

Listen, your Golem went all
to pieces there.

Go assemble it back.

I ll kill you.

I agree. That stone
was loads of fun.

Rosanka said, Use your head.

Oh! That was good advice!

You re done, skyscraper!

Oleshko...

I need to get to the
Gloomy Rock immediately.

No problem, dude!

I am a fairytale knight! Yo!

Come on, Vitko...

Hop!

Swinging dude!

Bye, Oleshko.

The coolest one among
fairytale knights.

True that.

Well, take care.

And you know what,

tell Olenka...

Vitya!

Vitko, the hole, Vitko!

I ll be waiting for you.

Even if you never come back.

I will.

Look, he s gonna fall now!

Someone! Help!

Come on!

I thought you got
scared and I m done in.

First I was scared...

And then I was sucked in...

And it started...

I met the knights...

I was checked in the marshes.

We found Perun stone.

Then cumans burned
Stork Village down.

We barely escaped.

Grandfather was killed,

Olenka kidnapped,

we brought the stone to life,

and golem appeared.

We burned it,

drowned it, but it
still got out of the marshes.

And then I jumped
from the tower...

on a deltaplane.

I threw the stone
into the water,

ran into the hole,

and you are here.

What about me?

Help me! Save me! Quick!

Eh, Vovchyk.

What s up with you?!

We did it!

Cool!

Great job!

One year later.

Mom, not now.

Mom!

But you have to return it
tomorrow morning.

I...

I ll manage in a
couple of hours!

And don t forget to have dinner.

Mother, you re cool!

Who finds that stone heart

will meet his true love.

Or find the lost one.

Olenka...

Vitko...
