Kozijat rog (1994) - full transcript

Middle Ages. Bulgaria is under the Ottoman Empire. Somewhere, far in the mountains, goatherd Karaivan lives with his wife and little daughter. One day, while he is away, Turks burst into the house and rape the woman before the eyes of the kid. She dies and the girl is shocked into growing dumb. From this moment on, Karaivan is obsessed with the sole thought of taking revenge. He moves with the girl into a cave high in the mountains, raises the girl as if she is a boy, trains her to fight and draw a bow. Deep in her heart, the girl has no hatred, but a craving for love. She meets a young Muslim shepherd and falls in love. The father is unable to swallow it and kills the young man, thus killing his own daughter.

IT BEGINS WITH VIOLENCE

Give the bag...
A flower... Well done!

Come on Come on!

Let's go...

Go to your mum!

COME on... come... on... on

Let's go... go... go... go

Come on!

Come... come... come...



Gee.

Ge-e, come...

No-o!...No-o!

No!

No... no... no!

No!

No!

No!

Mothe-e-e-er!!!

Stay here.

I'll make a man out of you or
I'll give you to the dogs, you know...

There's no place for women
in this world!

NINE YEARS LATER

NINE YEARS LATER

Hold it! Hold it tight!

Up! Left!...Here... Hop...
Hop... On the head!

I'm turning!...Move away!

You have to hit them
or they'll get you.

Hold!

Come on... come on... gee!

Halt!

Why aren't you shooting?
- Well...

Again!

There's nothing left!
Wait a minute!

The fur!

Why did you let it go? Why... Why...
Why did you let go of the horn? Why... Ah?

Why did you let it go?...Why?
Did you get scared? Did you?

Why? Why didn't you kill him?
I'll kill you, you hear?

It's better to kill you myself.
Do you hear?

There's no pity for them! No pity!
Do you understand?

Who?

Who?

I'll search the stables. I'll barricade
the roads. Nothing will ever get through!

Come on!

Hold there! Pull!

Come on! Come on!...

A9a... We!...

Are you still here?

Who are you?

I'm looking for my ox.

I'm here with the boy. I'm playing
the pipe, so they can hear us.

Why are you playing the pipe
instead of shouting?

Well... the pipe can be heard
from further away.

I see... You, fool!

Get lost!...

Get lost!...

011-0!

Here!

Keep your eyes open!

Are you alone?

I'm with Avram, with Adam,
with tails and hoofs ha-ha-ha!

Come on-come on!

E-e-e... Gee!

Come on.

Gee.., l-lup!

Halt! Halt!

Why don't you stop when I tell you?

Didn't hear!
- Didn't you!...Get down!

Let go of the horse! Let go!

Why don't you do as you're told? Ah?

You want me to chop your head off?

Come! Come! Come here... come here!

Why did you do it?

It's too close here. They'll find us.

I can't stand by while he kills, can I?

I'll tie you up!

Oi, what are you doing there?

I'm looking!

Well, keep looking then!

The water!

Move! Move out of the way!

Ready. Did you see how it's done?

Take it! Have some!

Eat! Eat up! Good!

And you, where're you off to?
- It's late!

Aren't you hungry?
I've eaten, pears.

Wait!

Why are you so undressed?
Go and put something on. At once!

Go!

No, "Q, no, no!

Harder! Pull with your hands!

Well done!

Why didn't you shoot?

He's not here.
He's gone somewhere.

Let's bathe, ah?

Nah...
- Why?

The water's too cold.
- It's not. Look.

I don't think so. It's freezing.
- Come on!

Why are you late?

I had to chase away a wolf. It took me
ages to gather the cattle again.

Good.
They must be breeding like mad rats,

if they started attacking
even in the summer.

How long are we going to wait?

Ah?...How long?

OK. I'm going, but afterwards
you leave me alone. You hear?

I'm sick of it!

Zeinel!

What's going on?
What's happened?

Tell me!

Nothing! It's nothing!

Nothing at all!

Maria... Maria!

Want some?

No!...
