Levoton Veri (1946)

So, so, so, so, so
Stop kicking, girl

I would, but
it tickles so nicely

That's good, the foot
will soon get better that way

Doesn't this feel good?

Yes, it does

That's what I thought,
it will be fine

Now we'll put the foot to rest

Oh, the doctor is so good,
taking care of poor me

Is it, is it
going to be shorter now?

I don't think so but
we'll have to perform -



a small operation
later in the autumn

We have agreed that
you will travel to Leipzig -

to Doctor Grin.
He will fix your foot

The doctor
is so terribly cute

Cute, really? No woman -

has ever
called me that before

But you are not a
woman yet, are you?

Excuse me!
Aren't I a woman?

Not yet

Well, almost anyway, -

or what
does the doctor think?

Fi-fiuuuu!!

You may be right, woman

And such a pretty one, too



Yes, other boys say so, too

Well?

Well?

Isn't the doctor
going to give me a kiss?

You'll be fooling
lots of boys yet

I think that's fooling, -

when you call a woman
pretty but don't kiss her

But you are not
quite a woman yet -

so, put those kisses out of
your mind and have a rest

If you are really good you
can get up in the afternoon -

to try out your chair and
maybe even play a little

Oh, how nice you are

There's the kiss after all

But I don't regret it, not at all

Not many women do

Tell me, dear doctor,
after the operation, -

can I, can I still dance?

Absolutely,
I promise you that

Good bye, little woman,
I'll come back soon

Bye, bye Doctor and thank
you so very much about

So very pretty,
nearly a woman

Ouh, what a pig

Well, what
did the doctor say?

Oh auntie, auntie,
he was so terribly nice -

and so terribly
kind and so terribly...

Listen auntie, can
I ask you something -

between us women?
- Well?

Listen, has
anyone ever told you -

that you are very pretty?

But dear child, what
are you talking about?

That would be terrible.
- It itsn't

And then he said, that
I can try the new chair

Where is it? Oh, there

Well? Isn't it great?

Hilja helps a little

Can you? - Yes, yes

I'll just go around the room

You are a wonderful woman

Did you hurt yourself?

Yes

Oh dear, a little scratch

You must take care of me,
you are a doctor after all

A beautiful foot, just as
beautiful as your sister's

Oh, it's not nice to say
so to another woman

I am jealous of you
even to my own sister

Are you?

Yes I am

Hi, Outi

Hello, little mother

Isn't life wonderful, the sun
shines and the birds sing?

I'd like to take the whole world
into my arms and kiss it

Oh dear, forgive me,
I didn't remember -

you cannot
enjoy this summer

Nonsense, I am
as happy as a lark

Soon I can
walk with crutches, -

and then I go abroad -

and when I come back I'll
be as healthy as anything

And then I
can dance and love

But I let it slip after all

What? - This love

I am terribly in love

What are you talking about?
Our little one in love?

Don't be silly, it was only

What do you mean?

A-ha, you are in love as well

Oh, how nice. Listen,
don't you think it's great, -

when it churns in your
stomach, that love, I mean, -

and rises up into
your heart and further up -

into your mouth
and ears and eyes -

and finally it's in your head
so that you feel giddy

Love is wonderful

So very wonderful

Who is he? - Who?

Well, your...
- You say first

I cannot, you say
orl'll show you

There. - Oh no? But it is

That's right.
Listen, isn't it fun?

Yes, it's fun

Listen, tell me the truth,
did you guess anything?

No, no I didn't

He is terribly handsome

But we are terribly ashamed

Listen, don't tell anyone.
- No, I won't

What about yours?

I lied to you, there's nobody

You poor thing, you
must get someone soon

It should be easy for you,
being able to move about

To move about, just think, -

In a couple of weeks
I'll be able to move, too

It's going well already

And soon, soon
I'll be dancing

Well, I don't know just yet,
but perhaps when you return

You will come again tonight
before you go?

I cannot, I still have to pack

Listen, I'll come and help you

What about auntie?
- Oh, auntie!

Come and get me,
when she's asleep

I'll be waiting

I'll be waiting for you Valter,
I'll be waiting

Are you still thinking of only him?

Yes

But my dear, it cannot be true

Tell me, tell me dearest,
that it is only silliness, -

innocent dreaming.
I can't stand this

It is not silliness

I know that I'm childish, -

but this is really true

Just believe me, little mother

But you know, -

you know that all women
fall in love with their doctors

I know, that's exactly
what I've done

But you don't know, -

this is impossible,
quite impossible

Impossible, how can you say
that, you are in love yourself?

Do you know who
I'm in love with?

With him

You mean Valter?

Yes, with him

It is best that you know it now

But I'm in love with him,
we cannot both

He, he... Valter loves me

He has said so to me

No, little Outi,
he loves me

He promised to meet me
tonight, do you understand?

It cannot be true

Don't cry, dearest,
you are so young

It will pass

It's him, Valter.
He is waiting for me

He is here for the last night.
He'll be traveling tomorrow

It is him, I must go

This way, auntie may wake up

At the moment coming...

You have trodden on...

Behind you back... you can
not avoid... happens to you

Well, that's gipsy
women's nonsense

You'll see

You'll have success,
money, lots of money

Good, good, money is
always welcome

Here you have two ladies, -

two blond admirers, -

who are near to your heart

Both are equally
near to your heart

You face a difficult choice

You are near to happiness now, -

near the right card

No, it's the queen of
diamonds, which is my card

Yes, she is in love with you, -

because you are an
older, experienced, a man

And you are her doctor

This is the doctor's card

And it is only
childish daydreaming

She is
much too young for you

She is not the woman for you

What about this other one?

Are you sure she
would be better for me?

Yes, she is a grown woman, -

who loves you
with mature feelings

She longs
for life and children, -

children with you

She will do
everything for you

She loves you, Valter

And you love her

You'll do it Valter.
I love you

And I miss you

I am your woman

Darling Sylvi

Auntie! - What has
happened, dear child?

Sylvi has gone,
she has disappeared

I'm afraid.
- Where has she gone?

I don't know, left with Valter

Oh, auntie!? - Oh dear

This is dreadful

Forgive me, little mother

Don't cry, dear Sylvi,
have I been unkind to you?

No, not you

But you are crying

I myself have
been a little bad

I feel that I am so...

Don't cry,
we love each other

Yes, I love you

I am so happy

Sylvi, shame on you

I am responsible
for my deeds

Sylvi will be my wife

All right, everything looks
different now than a month ago

Touch and go,
but we succeeded

And now you are
completely healthy

Isn't that so, little man?
- Yes

Yes, indeed

Thank you, doctor,
you have given me -

the biggest gift of my life,
the life of my son

Yes, a child is the greatest
gift anyone can receive

Shall I pay the doctor now, or...

You can pay again,
when it suits you

Let's be happy
that the child is healthy

Thank you, doctor,
good bye

Good bye,
good bye, little man

Here is your next patient

Coughed a little at night.
Would you listen to his chest?

Well, I don't suppose
It's so dangerous

1 will look after this boy,
like my own eyes

Let the whole world crumble, -

but I won't allow even a
single hair in your head break

His lungs work like an engine

Just think, this is our son

It is wonderful to think, -

that we live again in
this adorable creature

My son, my own son,
soon you'll grow into a man

Mother's little piglets, all of us

All of us, all of us

Mother's little piglets,
all of us

All of us, you and I

You and {

I am not a pig, dad is a pig

We are both.
Think, five year old

And now, soon we'll go
and do men's work, -

but for now, let's go and make
pigs of ourselves with that cake

What do you say?
- Yes, yes

And now everyone to
bed, young and old

Not me. I don't want to go
to bed, I want to be a pig

Oh, but we
are so tired already

But now Martti will blow out
the candles on the cake

All right, blow. - Yes

And now a kiss for dad and a
kiss for mummy and then to bed

My father's music box...

Now my son's

Didn't we have
a lovely birthday party?

Yes, very nice

And Liisa looks good, too,
with her new thing on her head -

and even silk stockings

Everything I have is made
of silk. Good night, doctor

Good night

Good night, madam.
- Good night, Liisa

Come to bed

What a shame,
but I have to go -

to the laboratory to do some
work, but I'll be back soon

One more kiss for daddy

Daddy is going to earn cake
money for Martti and mummy

Now you both go nicely to
bed, dad will follow soon

Bye, bye

Bye, bye

One more wave to daddy.
- Yes

And now for a wash
and then to the sandman

Dear God, bless father
and mother, Martti and Liisa

Sleep, my dear, sleep well

Well, at last. - Forgive me,
dear. I didn't want to stop

There's this German
who's done an experiment -

and I wanted to check it.
- Talking of Germany, -

isn't it strange that Outi stays
abroad all these years?

Yes, her foot should have
got better ages ago, -

but I guess music studies
take their time, too -

and, anyway, who knows what
a young lady will get up to?

Come on, I miss you

It is so warm
and lovely near you

Shall I put the lights out?
- Not yet, I'm afraid of the dark

Afraid of the dark? There are
no other bogeys than me here

No, I'm not afraid of bogeys, -

but somebody stealing
you from me in this darkness

Don't be afraid, I'm never
going to give you up, never

Don't ever give up

Good morning, dear

Hello. - Hello

May I see that
hat in the window?

Yes, thank you.
- Here you are

What was that?

Valter, Valter!
- Oh my God!

Martti, my son,
what is the matter?

No, no, no,
it's impossible, -

impossible, -

he's gone

How is this possible?

I was buying a hat and Martti
slipped out into the street -

and then a car!

You were buying stupid
fineries for yourself -

and let the boy
run into his death?

There we have a mother,
this is your fault

I hate you

I hate you more than
anything in this world

I will never forgive you, never

Couldn't you forget?
It was a long time ago

No, I cannot help it

But you know how
I have suffered

Isn't that enough to expiate
what you call my crime?

Yes, yes, I know all that,
my reason knows it, -

but my feelings blame
you, and I cannot help it

My love, you
must be able to forget

But I cannot

You know what the
child means to me

He was my son,
my only son -

and if but you cannot
have a child any more

Don't torture me!

Don't you think that I am just
as bitter about it than you are?

That is why I need you
just now more than ever

Don't leave me alone

Come on

This cannot go on

We must find each other again

We must start living again

No, I cannot, not yet, anway

Perhaps one day

Brandy, double

Another, please

Two more

Out...

Out I say!

Crazy man

Martti, Martti...

Do you remember what
it was like here before?

Cozy and warm

And now

You have gone
away and he...

Do you remember how I used
to be afraid of the dark?

I was afraid that someone
would take you away from me, -

and now you have gone

You left me

Please, take me back again

Take me into your arms,
caress and keep me warm

I miss all of this so much
that I'm going crazy

What does the doctor want?
- Vichy-water

It's in the fridge, I'll bring

Thank you,
I'll take the bottle

Oh dear,
the doctor looks tired

I am tired

Good night, doctor.
- Good night

I am so bloody tired

Do you mind, girl

May I sit down?

Of course, doctor

I am so lonely, -

so completely alone

You are a good, kind girl

I have admired you for
long, you and your youth

You could make me happy, -

much happier than

Oh, what am
I talking about?

I suppose it'll
be all right one day

You are a good girl,
good night

What was that?

Sylvi!

Valter, Valter,
what is the matter?

I cannot see, nothing,
although my eyes are open

Tell me for God's sake,
tell me

Oh my God

Blind

Withered

Withered like me, -

but maybe you come
back to life one day

Perhaps I have also won
something by becoming blind

I cannot see, but maybe
he sees me now

Good morning, dear, I have
good news for you. - Good?

I am afraid of all news

But everything is all right

Not so well that
it couldn't be better

You know doctor Brauner
- Who?

Brauner, that famous
eye specialist?

He is on his way
here via Sweden, -

and I, the smart guy that I am,
called him in Stockholm -

and made him promise
that he will see you

If anyone can help you,
it is him

I am completely blind, I don't
believe anyone can cure me

And I am not sure if I
want to be cured, either

What kind of talk is that?

Remember how I used
to be afraid of the dark?

I was afraid that someone
steals you. - Darling

But now that I am in darkness,
I am no longer afraid

I have great light, -

your love

Darling, you
and I belong together

Nothing can separate us

Now I must go
to the practice again

You'll be alright?

Yes, I'll be fine,
I'll do some work, too

Where did
I leave the duster?

Here. - Thank you

Are you sure?
You won't get too tired?

Not at all, I must learn
to move and live like this

Bye. - Bye, bye

One, two, three

four, five, six

seven, eight, nine

Good afternoon, good afternoon.
- Good afternoon

Greetings from Paris

After seven years, in my
home country and at home

Is Madam Sylvi at home?

Is it you, Valter,
didn't you go to work?

Listen, I have
something to say

I have been thinking
about our life

Perhaps, after all, I am
asking too much of you

I am a burden to you

You are young and ambitious, -

life is open to you
and I, I am like this

Sylvi, Sylvi,
what is the matter?

Who are you? - Don't you
remember me, little mother?

I am Outi

Can't you see?
- No. I am blind

Oh my God,
what has happened?

I took some
poison by mistake

Oh Sylvi, dear Sylvi.
This is terrible

Not any more, I have got used
to living in my dark world

But are you sure nothing helps?
Oh, this is terrible, terrible

Perhaps there
is a small chance, -

when Dr. Brauner comes.
Please don't. Put your head up

I am not crying
any more, either

Or Valter. You spoke
so strangely of him

It was nothing, let's forget it

And no more talking of me

I'd rather you told
me how your foot is

It has been well
for a long time already

That is wonderful,
no problems then?

No, nothing at all

Now you will stay
with us, little Outi, -

and take very
good care of us all

But auntie, I think
I'll go and see her now

What about him, Valter?

Does he want me
to stay here with you?

Of course, he has
always liked you

And I liked him

I liked him as all
patients like their doctors

Bye, bye, I'm going
upstairs to see auntie now

Bye, bye, be
sure not to frighten her

And the queen
of hearts there

But little girl,
dear little cripple

Cripple? I'm not cripple,
not in the foot or heart, -

I am healthy,
joyful and happy

But you naughty girl, why
did you stay away for so long?

Convalescence
took a long time

And now you are
completely healthy?

Yes. Yes ll am. I am
healthy as anything

But she... Sylvi

That is right.
Now she is a cripple

Hello Sylvi. - Hello

I have something
very interesting for you

I have ordered
this specially for you

What is it? - A book

What do I do with a
book, I cannot see?

No, but you can feel.
Give me your hand

Do you feel anything?

Yes, I can feel dots

Can you feel, here is
one dot? It is A

This is two dots.
This is B

This is C

And here is D

But this is easy

So it does

This is G, this is H

This is I.
This really is easy

Don't you recognize
me, Valter?

No

It is Outi

My goodness,
are you little Out, -

who wore short skirts and
had freckles on her nose?

Welcome, we have waited
a long time for you

And your foot... Is it
completely healed now?

Yes, yes it is.
I could even dance, -

as you once promised

Look, like this, and this

Don't I manage well?
- Yes, very well

Forgive me, Sylvi,
I have been stupid

Well, where were we Valter

I didn't quite get it yet

This wasthis was I,
here is U

This is K

And this is J, and again A

Reading. Hurray, it won't
take you long to learn to read

Let's continue: -

D-0-G,

dog

This is easy

L-1-F-E-

life I - S, is

W-0-N-D-E-R

F-U?I

Wonderful.
- Life is wonderful

That's not true,
but never mind

T-H-E

The sun

I- S

S-H-1-N-1-N7G

is shining

The sun is shining

What are you doing, Valter?

I'm - I'm just admiring -

this beautiful evening sun

Good morning, Miss

What are
you talking about here?

No - no, I'm just
talking to myself

Listen, Valter, tell me, -

what does Outi look like
after all these years, -

I cannot see her?
Well, Outi you mean?

Outi. - Well, she has become
a real little dame, -

curly hair and pretty eyes, -

and her mouth, her mouth
is like it was made for kisses

And her figure, her
figure, I must say, -

that her figure is
extremely well developed -

and her legs, her legs
is pedigree, pedigree legs

All together very agreeable

You seem to have had
time to study her closely

With a professional eye,
I mean as a doctor

Could I have the salt,
please?

Salt, please?

Why are you so quiet,
don't you like the food?

No, the food is good
and the world is wonderful

I have somehow
began to live again

Yes, you two can enjoy
light, life and colors

Perhaps you'll be back
in the world of light soon

Let us wait what
Dr. Bruner has to say

I am used to darkness,
I don't miss company there

Don't say that, I, too,
have lived in the darkness, -

but now I'm going to fight
my way into the sun

Be careful not to burn
yourselfin the sun

It's ten o'clock and
the doctor is waiting

I'll take you.
- No, I don't want you to

Of course, I will.
- Thank your, but I'd rather -

hear the verdict alone.
And you have your practice

What are you reading?

That was not nice
in the bathroom

I thought
it was very beautiful

Why did you caress
my hand just now?

Because I like you

You must not
like me that way

Not any more

Well, it doesn't look
very promising, -

but if you continue the treat-
ment for another two years, -

your eyes may
get slightly better, -

so that you can see a little,
but you won't be able to read

There is another possibility,
but it is dangerous

I could try an operation and
you could get your sight back -

immediately, but the
operation is complicated, -

it could fail, and then you'd be
blind for the rest of your life

It is much safer to continue
with the slower treatment

I can't wait. It's terrible to be
blind, when life passes by

People grow and get on

They don't wait for me

May I think about it?
- Of course

But remember, that the
operation is dangerous -

and you would have to travel
with me to Switzerland, -

because I don't have my
special instruments here -

which are necessary
in the operation

Don't worry, it will be fine,
rest and sunshine to you

Thank you, good bye.
- Good bye

Where did you get that from?

Oh, you remember

Do you remember then,
in that summer, -

you were whistling this and
Sylvi came to you in love

And I

You?

Poor me, I was laying
in my bed crying

Crying?

Yes, crying out
of love and jealousy

Jealousy?

Were you jealous?
- I must have been very silly

I loved you with a
little girl's whole heart

I loved you like a little
cripple loves her doctor

You cannot imagine,
how my poor heart suffered

And every evening I had
to hear about you from Sylvi

It was horrible

I loved and suffered like
only a little school girl can do

You, you didn't even notice
the adoring heart at your feet

Are you so sure about that?

That's how silly I was then

Finally I decided to run away,
to get away from you

Did you?

I think I did

What about now?

Then it was just silliness,
now it's plain impossible

What is impossible now?

N-no, nothing

We were just talking
of old summer memories

What did the doctor say?
- Yes, what did he say?

There is not much hope,
it can take years with my eyes

Oh, dear Sylvi,
lam so sorry for you

Don't be pessimistic,
everything will be all right, -

as long as you manage
to keep your nerve. - Yes

You seem nervous today,
Outi? - Yes, I am

I'm worried about their fate

After all, we
were so happy then

Sylvi was
beautiful and Valter...

Yes, he has always
been very handsome

Maybe too handsome

There is something in him

It seems that he has too
much of that something?

What are you studying?

I was waiting for you to tea

The table is set

There we are,
everything is ready here

There is some tea here

Outi, come and
have some tea

No, thank you, not just now

But then you can give
us a small tea concert

It's a long time since
you last played to us

It's a pleasure

Play something that
I, too, can understand

Why did you stop?
Please continue

What is the matter with Outi?

I don't know. - Aha!

That's where you are

Outi, I have
something to say to you

Come, I have thought
about you and me

I also wanted
to talk with you

Is that you, Valter?

This is a dangerous game.
- What do you mean?

You know very well.
- What do you mean?

You must have guessed
and Sylvi knew, -

why I stayed away
for so long. Didn't you?

It was a little girl's
love, but it endured

It took me a long time
to get back to normal

And I want to stay that way

Do you understand?

Everything was a mistake
from the beginning

Yes, perhaps, but now
you must remember, -

that Sylvi is your wife and
I am only your sister-in-law

Do you understand?

Yes, I understand

So, that is what
I wanted to tell you

I must get my sight back

I am ready to
risk anything for that

It is very dangerous.
- I know

You must operate.
- But that is not wise.

Wise or crazy,
I want to try one last thing.

If it fails, I accept my fate.
- All right

So, we will
travel to Switzerland

But blame yourself,
if disaster happens

I already blame
myself for everything

Good bye, doctor.
- Good bye, Madam Sora

This is crazy. What if you
loose your sight for good?

I'm living through
the darkest time now

I must find the light

But I cannot even
be with you then

I have promised to take care
of Dr. Lehtinen's patients

Someone has to take you to
Switzerland and take care of you

Me of course, and if I were
Sylvi, I would do the same

Perhaps it will be all
right without the operation

I doubt it. It won't be all right

More light

A little more

More

Careful

More light

That's enough

Do you see anything?

No, nothing

More light

Oh my God,
how that hurt my eyes

Hurt, do you see something?

Yes, I seel seelight

Tell me, for good's sake,
was the operation successful?

Keep your eyes closed
and the black bandage on

I cannot promise anything yet,
but there are possibilities

Well, my darling,
how are you today?

I don't know yet

Have they written?

Yes, yes, almost every day.
Outi is so worried for you

What about him, Valter?

He sent you flowers

Here you are

Oh, roses

They must be dark red

I wonder if he
will remember me?

Of course he will

ll can see

ll can see

Well, well, well,
what is happening here?

You must remember
that you must use -

still use dark glasses
at least a year -

and be
careful of harsh light, -

because it can affect
your nerves so that -

you may become blind,
or even mentally ill

Have you told them at home
about the operation's success?

No. This will be a
surprise for everyone

All the time I feel
that I am doing wrong

I feel Sylvi's accusing
look on my face

And still, I am
so happy, so happy

I wanted this short time of
complete happiness to myself

I want to feel you
this close, my darling

This must end
when she comes

No, no, you belong to me.
I will never let you go

Just think if
she gains her sight

She will see everything

I cannot think of that now

You, you are here

Sylvi. - You
came back already

Oh dear Sylvi, how did
the operation go? - Well

Tell me, tell me quickly

It failed, ... for good

Sylvi, you are crying

No, my dear, I was
just rinsing my eyes

They have been hurting again

Oh, dear Sylvi,
I feel so sorry for you

Don't feel sorry for me,
I don't like it

I'd rather hear how you are,
what has it been like, -

while I've been away?
- Wonderful, we have...

I have been swimming,
playing tennis, -

and running myself
tired every day

What about Valter, has he
been good? - Like an angel

He has been serving
on me like a child

I mean, whenever he's
had time from his work

Where have you slept?

In my own room,
of course, upstairs

What about him? - Who?

Valter

In the corner room, I think,
I don't know for sure

It has been very nice here

I can believe that

Has he kissed you?

Kissed, who? - Valter

You are crazy

No, but I know men

Forgive me. Stupid.
- Sometimes I hope -

that he'd find another woman,
who would care for him

But not you, you are not for him,
or what do you think, Valter?

You have not learned to
move quietly enough yet

I was just passing.
- I know

Take me to bed

Valter, this is a bit difficult.
Could you help?

Valter! - What?

Nothing

All right, that's it

Valter

What, my love? - Come

What did you say?

Nothing

Good night, my dear

Sleep well

Good night

Valter!

Did you call me?
- Where are you going?

I'm going to bed, my dear.
- Where?

In my own room, of course

Good night, my darling

I cannot stand this any more.
You are always near me, -

and yet so far away

Valter, don't you think
I also suffer?

It is terrible to deceive her

All the time I feel the
accusation in her blind eyes

But it is even worse
to deceive oneself

I have imagined that I would
some day be free of you

I thought that you'd
be happier with Sylvi

This is all a deceit

Now I know that I'll
never be free of you, -

and I also know that you
are happy in my arms

The two of us
belong together

That is the truth.
- It is the truth

Valter, I can bear it no longer

Come

Get up!

Good morning, dear Outi

Did you have a good night?

I hope you slept well
without nightmares

You look so pale

How can you know that?

I just feel it, Outi dear,
I just feel it

Goodness, have you
started to smoke?

Sometimes in the evenings

Please don't, it is very
dangerous, very dangerous

Whose watch is this?
Valter's watch

How come it's here?

I don't know. He may
have forgotten it sometime

Yes, Valter forgets
sometimes actually too much

And they were bound together
like with invisible chains

There were three of them and
they lived under the same roof, -

three people who loved
and hated each other

They were sisters, Kaarina
and Lea and between them -

had come a man, a man
who belonged to Kaarina, -

and whom Lea lured to her
with deception and sin, -

as there is no greater sin,
than deceiving one's sister

It is the work of a thief
and adulterer

But when night came the man
crept from his conjugal bed -

and went to his wife's sister
and sin united them

Then they forgot the one
who was alone and suffered, -

suffered terrible pain, -

suffered enough to lose
her mind, which she did

But one day something
terrible happened

Perhaps I am boring you, maybe
you don't want to hear more

Where did you
get a book like that?

From the library, of course,
it is very educational

One must not play with
sin, it's dangerous, -

very dangerous

What happened to them?

Them?
- The people in the book?

What happens when the
conscience starts to fester -

day and night, dig
and gnaw, tear and bite?

The nights are sleepless.
Fear and terror enter the soul, -

nerves start to break
and there is no way out

They want to escape,
escape at any cost

But where and how?

And they did the only thing
that could free them

What did they do?

They killed themselves

They killed themselves.
Oh my God, forgive us

She knows. She
suspects, that you and I

She cannot know
she is blind after all

But then, why did
she read that story to us?

I am afraid
of her blind eyes

The way she
stares at me is awful

Almost as if
she is be able to see

Where are you going, you
cannot leave me alone here?

I'm going to work,
you go to your room

Nothing is going to happen.
- Don't go, don't go

This cupboard,
it is my old acquaintance

Those bottles.
In here there is blindness

No, no, blindness
would be too easy

This, he must drink from this

They killed themselves

They killed themselves

This would also free me

Shall I drink, shall I drink?

You, why did
you come just now?

Why wouldn't 17 Do you
have something to hide?

Do you have a bad conscience?

Can't you tell everything to your
little mother, like you used to?

You are moving along
dark paths, Outi

It is dangerous. Be
careful not to fall in the dark

Glass, what is in it?

That is... juice

Juice?

I am thirsty

No, no, no

You! Why are you here?

You know that you
are not to come here

They suspect
us too much already

Go away.
Do you hear me, go away!

I don't want you messing
me up here as well

What are you staring at,
are you mute?

I am expecting a child

Your child

Child?
She is expecting a child

You are expecting
a child, my child

You and I, we are
going to have a child

God bless you

Valter, you are not sorry?

How could I be sorry?

A child is the
biggest wish of my life

My love, my love

We are going to
have a child, you and I

Think, just think about
the eyes of the child, -

the little hands, the
sweet sounds of a child

We'll see it grow and develop

We'll see our own
lives continuing better -

and more beautiful

Now we have
something to live for -

and something to fight for

Oh my love, my love

Thank you for helping
me over the worst

What shall we do now?

She must release us

She will never do that.
- Never!

There must be a way.
I will force her

You will force, who, are you
talking to yourself, Valter?

How did you get in here?

The maid let me in,
she went to the shop

Well, how did
your experiment go?

I don't know yet, it takes time

I suppose so. You must be
ex-perimenting with perfume, or what?

You forgot your hat, Outi.
Don't let me disturb you

Not at all

I just came to... - Well

Yes, you see, Outi has been
complaining of her nerves -

and it was my
intention to examine her

All right, how nice. And
have you examined her?

Not yet. - In that case
you can do it right away

We'll see what is the matter with
her nerves. Take your coat off

I thought
I should go to Dr. Salonen

Take the coat off
and your blouse

You needn't be shy in
front of your brother-in-law

I think you have slep
very restlessly at night lately

Is there
something the matter?

No, nothing

Sometimes I fancy I have
heard you cry in your room

Surely you are not in love?

I am really worried about you

You must take care of
your nerves - No, no, no

Valter will cure you.
He is the specialist

Cough once... more cough

Breath in... cough... breathe

More, breathe

Look, she sees

Do you see?
- What should I see?

My glasses just
pressed on my nose

Well, Valter,
did you find anything?

No, no I cannot
bear it any longer

Neither do I

Put your glasses on.
- No, I can see better without

Oh dear, you are wearing
such an ugly tie today, darling

Sylvi, you can see

Yes, I can see

Don't you think that's
fun, my darling?

Oh Sylvi, Sylvi
that's wonderful

It's no fun to see everything

What about the operation?

The operation didn't fail.
I have been able to see -

and I have watched
already a long time

But then you must know?

Yes, I know very much

Oh God, this theatre, -

but now it must end

I have waited
for this a long time

By the way,
I must congratulate you, -

you play lovers
very convincingly

We are not acting

Outi and I,
we love each other

How romantic

And here's me thinking
that you are just playing about, -

as you always have...
in my house

But you are not asking, -

whether I love, or
even if I have loved

I did love and I suffered

I suffered so that it nearly
made me mad and and I did

Hate and revenge burned
in my veins day and night

In my desperation
I tried to kill myself, -

but didn't in the end

I decided to kill you, -

but it would have
been too easy for you

Live and suffer, suffer
like I have suffered

Then I decided
to torture you, -

torture you until one
day you yourselves...

Decided to commit suicide?

You guessed right,
my dear friend

And I swear that you all -
the all of you will do it

All three

What do you mean? - Exactly
what you were thinking

You three. Not me

So you know?
- Think about it, I know

So you know that
I shall be a mother?

You will not be a mother

Valter is a doctor

What do you mean?
- Exactly that

You are a doctor

Remember that

Valter, Valter, did you see
her eyes, that murderous look?

I am afraid, afraid

Ah-a, there the lovers come

There is a letter for you,
I put it on your table

It is time to take the masks
off, Outi. You are a thief

You have stolen my man
and lived in sin with him, -

and you have stolen
a child from me, -

which I would otherwise
carry in my womb

I hate and despise you, Outi

And you, my faithful husband

You have lived
faithfully with two sisters

You are married to one, and
are having a child with another

This could mean a scandal, -

labeling you
for the rest of your life

I demand that
the child must die, -

or I will stir up such a storm,
that it'll break Valter's career -

and I'll torture you, Outi,
until you are as crazy as I am

There is another option.
There is a pistol in my drawer

Choose

I wish you a pleasant
time together, -

until I return day after tomorrow.
Your loving sister, Sylvia

Oh my God,
what a terrible person

What are we going to
do now, what shall we do?

I don't know, but one thing is
sure, our child is not going to die

You are guilty, you alone

Are you going to kill
their child as well? No, no

Outi and Valter,
you both dear people

Forgive me

I am sick and crazy,
my nerves are finished

It is not always easy
to stay stable, -

but now I understand clearly, -

that it is time
for me to step aside

I am only a shadow
of a certain past

You still love each other

Life and future belong
to both of you

And 1, for myself
I want finally peace

Be happy and love each other

Forgive me, if you can
