(voices of small vendors)

(birth pains)

-(ZOE) What are you doing here, you big head?
-(RAFAEL) I'm going to the roof.

-Why?
-I don't want to hear the mother.

Is this the first time you've heard her give birth?
Go down and give water to the ox.

-You go.
-Go and don't listen to the mother.

(EULOGIA) Help me, Mother of God!

-Why doesn't he help her?
-Because you're sitting on top of her like a scarecrow.



(screams of pain) I can't!
I can't stand the pain!

Listen , my little Hajichristina,
what your daughter-in-law says. "I cannot:".

(MIDWIFE) Your first is my child
and you can't?

Come on, give it a push to get it out.

(screams of pain)

Come on...

(cries of pain, crying)

What are you sitting down for? Make a prayer for it to get out.

(cries of pain, crying)

-Come on big head get down!

-No, I'm scared.
-Are you afraid to get off?

Are you afraid of the birth? Are you the one in pain?

-Aren't you afraid of it?
-Do you know how many goats I've delivered?

Come on, I want to see the baby.
coming out!



-No!
-Get down, I'll pull the ladder.

(baby crying)

There, I missed the birth.
Let me give you a...

-Did she give birth? Is it over? Is that it?
-That's it, you big head.

-(RAFAEL) Boy?
-Girl!

-Boy?
-Boy, my precious.

(MIDWIFE) Let me get this.
and I'll give it to you.

(baby crying)

Boy! My mother gave birth to a boy!

Boy! My mother gave birth to a boy!

(cackling)

Aunt Despina my mother gave birth!

-Blessed be! What did she had?
-Guess!

What am I supposed to guess? I see it.
in your face! A boy!

-Yes!
-I told her it would be a boy.

Since her belly
was like a standing watermelon.

A standing watermelon!

Come over here when I'm done with the oven,
we'll take the bread home.

(RAFAEL) Make me a bagel!

(breath of joy)

Now this... which one is it?
The eighth? The ninth?

I've lost count.

Two are in the sky.

Zoe, Maria,
Raphael, Amalia, Charalambos...

And this one.

(dramatic music)

(bell ringing)

(WORK MAN) What is it, chairman?
Are the Chetas here?

Boss, what are we doing?

We are crossing our fingers.

(Bells ringing)

Hajiefedi!

Hajiefedi, your prayer.

From the top.
they say they've appeared Chetas!

-No, my blessed.
-And what's that ringing?

Are you asking me, Prodrome?
I thought you were the one doing it.

Why would I hit the bell,
Hajiefedi?

I don't know.
I say he's crazy.

That's what I am, but I don't ring he bells
for no reason.

Save your breath, let's go see
what's going on.

(bell ringing)

(exclamations of pain)
Let me

Leave you what?
Take them off, Father.

-Pull them out a little more.
-Who's gonna pull them for us, Prodrome?

Bless us.

The Lord bless us.

What a feast we have today
and you're ringing the bell?

-I don't know, I had a vow.
-What kind of vow?

If the mother gives birth to a boy,
I'm going to hit the bell.

What else I will hear to, my goodness!

And what's up with the bell?
to hit it whenever you feel like it?

-(FATHER) Prodrome...
-Excuse me, Father, but the children...

I wish we had their unmaliciousness.

-Did the mother give birth to a boy?
-Yes!

Blessed be. You're done
with the vow to bless the baby?

"Yes, I am finished.
-The whole village is waiting for you.

(WORKER) Tell them about the vow and
hope you don't get some slaps.

They are need too, Hajiefedi.

Yes, Prodrome, they do. We
who deserve them, who will give them?

Your blessing, my father.
What happened? Why was the bell ringing?

You had a son, blessed one,
that's why it was ringing.

-Did Eulogia give birth?
-Who else do you want to give birth?

Take the horse and give it water. Let's go,
Father, bless did you the son?

Can I come too?
I'll water it later, Father.

- Come on, come on.
-You should see some eyes he has!

-He looked at me with such a gaze...
-Come on, he looked at you, he was just born.

(RAFAEL) Really, Father,
he looked at me!

-Did he tell you to ring the bell too?
- Let him go, blessed one.

Did you beat the bell?

Let him go to Eulogia.
We have joy!

(FATHER) Prodrome, bring the orarion.

(HAJICHRISTINA) Will you read the service
for the Eulogia, my Hajiefedi?

Don't worry, Hajichristina.
I will.

Raphael is right.
Look at the this gaze!

Thank God he was born strong, Father.
Thank God!

-Strong and boy.
-Joy, that Raphael had!

-What if it was a girl?
-We'd have more trouble.

Why don't you go to the fountain and help?
help your sisters fetch water.

-And don't talk unless you're asked.
- Let him go.

He needs to understand that...

The man is the head of the house
and of the woman.

Know that, Raphael, that the woman too
is the neck that holds the head.

Can there be a head without a neck? No.

In wisdom God made all things.

Go to the fountain,
and help your sisters.

Bless you sayings, my Hajiefedi.

(tenderly) My little boy...
Bless him.

Bless him to find
only the good in his life.

(HATZICHRISTINA) And Lord Christ
always by his side.

Amen. Didn't you prayed for that?

I did, Father. But my
prayers don't compare to yours.

Your prayers support your son,
your bride and their home.

That's right, Father.

Every day I thank God...

Prodrome! Thank God for the
for the wife and children he has given you.

-Your mother is about to depart.
-That's what she keeps telling me.

(door creaking)

-Confidence, Father. I brought the orarion.
-(FATHER) Come in, Prodrome.

May he live long.
Give thanks to the Lord.

Thank you, Prodrome.

(FATHER) In the name of the Father and
Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

(FATHER) Lord Almighty,
God of Powers,

Whom made heaven and earth
and the sea and all things therein.

He who created man from dust...

So, what are you telling us now, Jordan?

What am I telling you? What we feared has happened.

What's that? What happened?

Speak clearly, man.

We are the last,
they're taking us for exchange.

Kemal.
He doesn't want us to stay here.

Which means?

Which means, old-Homer...

They're gonna bag us on a boat

And they will take us to Greece.

Why? Why, Jordan?
And what's here? It's Greece, isn't it?

I'm not going anywhere!

What are they gonna do to me, man?
Are they going to kill me?

Oh, I'm scared now!

(traditional music)

(end of music)

(happy voices)

(ZOE) Calm down, let's go to sleep.

Charalabe, stop jumping around!

Everybody stop, you're going to get a beating!

Grandma, look what they're doing.

Leave them, my little Zoe.
They're happy.

-They got another little brother.
-Yeah, we had a few.

What did you say, my Zoe:

Tomorrow you confess
to the Hajiefendi.

Every baby
that comes into the world

Is a great blessing
that God sends!

-Bless us, Grandma.
-Bless you.

But the day after tomorrow, you'll have children too.
Whatever God sends you.

What will you say? They are few, they are a lot?
Or why didn't you send me?

No! You're gonna say "what your holy will
wants, this be done."

Grandma? Why doesn't God do something to
keep the Turks from coming to our village?

Let us pray to God, my child.
and what is His holy will be done.

Kill all the Turks.
and all the evil ones.

Wow, what a stupid thing that
Raphael just said!

Hey, when Christ was
on the cross, what did he say?

"Father, leave them.
They don't know what they do."

"Leave them" he said! Bravo!
He didn't say "kill them."

I'll pull your ear.
I can't listen any more about killings. I can't!

My Zoe, go clean up,
I'll tell them a story.

(all together) Hooray!

(baby crying)
Don't cry, my boy.

Mommy loves you.

Are you listening, my little angel?

(dramatic music)

How I love you, my blessing!

Every day I thank God for the gift
that he has given to me, a sinner.

I pray that he has you well.
Every day on my knees I pray to Him.

Take care, my husband. The Chetas
have their eye on you, take care.

Fear not, Eulogia. I have the blessing
of the Hajiefendi. Nothing will happen to me.

And for Father Arsenios I pray.

God bless him,
give him strength.

-Look... what eyes he has!
-Your eyes.

- Husband, can I tell you something?
-How can you not?

I love you more than my life.

(end of music)

And the tree grew
And it flourished,

and it became so beautiful that
It was the envy of the other trees.

And the little birds chose it
to build their nests.

And they were all happy and cheerful.

In the morning when they woke up,
there was a celebration of singing,

until one day, suddenly, there a noise.
Some knocking, far away in the woods.

The birds paid no attention.

But as the days went by, they got more and more
louder and louder the bangs sounded.

And closer.

So close that they woke the wise
owl sleeping in the hollow.

"What are you doing here? What are you waiting here for?

Lumberjacks! Lumberjacks are coming!
Can't you hear them?"

And flew away.

The lady sparrow gathered around her
her children

And she said to them "My little children,
we must go."

"Where shall we go?" said the sparrows.
"This is our home."

The poor little sparrows,
where would they go?

-Why did the lumberjacks come?
-They came to cut down trees.

Grandma, did they cut down
the big beautiful tree?

Wait. The lark that was
on the highest branch of the tree cried out,

"My friends, the time has come
to defend our nests!"

He didn't have time to finish his sentence
and there was a loud thump.

The first axe on the tree
had hit.

The little birds were startled, stood up
in the air and flew off tweeting.

A second and a third axe
fell on the tree.

"Get them!" shouted the lark.

He turned around, looked around,
but saw no one.

The birds were all gone.

Soon the wounded tree
made a creaking sound.

A strange creaking sound as if it were
a cry of many centuries, many years, many years,

and fell.

(dramatic music)

What about the lark?

The lark is said to be hanging around there.

and every morning the dawn weeps
inconsolable.

And he waits for when it will grow up again,
the tree

and when the birds will return.

Have the other birds left?
All of them.

All of them, my daughter. So we too,
we must leave our nest.

What nest?

-This one.
-What do you think, Grandma?

-(MARIA) And go where?
-To Greece.

And our home? What's going to happen?

What about it? Our house will be
always our home. Just like the tree.

The lumberjacks cut it down,
but its roots are there

and it will sprout again.
And it will grow again

And the little birds will come again
to build their nests.

Until he grows up again and grows
branches, the little birds will die!

Ah... Their little children will come.

How will they come? They'll know.
which is the tree?

The tree itself will show them.
the way.

-And the lark will show them.
-Good. And the lark, of course!

(EULOGIA) What do you say, Prodrome?

After a joy,
comes a sorrow, my Eulogia.

What you are telling me is not a solution,
it's...

How do we leave our house?

It's not the first time you've heard it.
We're the last ones.

Think about when the others left
Smyrna, Aibali. And what happened to them there.

Didn't you know that
it was going to happen at some point?

I had a secret hope
that something would change.

I thought they would tell us
"You will stay."

Where are we going, Prodrome?
with six children?

-God provides.
-Did they said where are they taking us?

-No.
-And when do we have to leave?

Please tell me.

Hajiefendi says
until the Dormition of the Virgin Mary.

Until the Dormition of the Virgin Mary?
But it's in two weeks!

What do you say, Prodrome?
How will this happen?

Our baby has just been born!

(crying) Jesus, what have we done?
Why?

-Why? Why?
-Don't say that again, Eulogia.

I didn't expect to hear that.
that from you.

Forgive me. My sins, forgive me.

No forgive me. You're tired.

I am not.
I am ungrateful. Ungrateful.

So many blessings God gave us,
and I ask the reason.

-You are human Eulogia.
-Yes, I am human.

And that's something I must never forget.
I am His creation.

Come, my husband, let us pray.
to Christ our Lord. He will not leave us.

Jesus, my sweet Jesus,
do not leave us.

Leads us where You will.

Cover us with Your grace.

And give us strength
to endure the trials.

Forgive me...

(end of music)

(speeches of fellow villagers)

It can't be done, chairman.

They were going to free us, he says, and there you go.

Where did the brave lads go?
They ran away.

Father Arsenie,
tell them it can't be done.

-We can't leave so quickly.
-What will become of our livestock, chairman?

Who put that order out now?

We're not going anywhere. They will
take me only dead from my house.

Excuse me, and if we go to Greece.
What will they provide us?

I don't know what they will provide us.
What are you asking me now?

We are asking, your Honour. We leave here
our livelihood.

To take what? They're gonna take with joy
the Turks will take up our houses

And we don't know where we're going,
whether we'll have a home...

And say they give us a house?
How are we going have a life there?

Where are we going to work? How are we going to live?

What I'm thinking about is how
we're going to get to Greece alive.

-Let's get there first and God help us.
-What will happen to our livestock?

-We'll take them together? -We'll take them together?
-Where, bless you? On the boat?

-And what will happen to them? I'm asking you, chairman.
-I'm worrying what will happen to us.

We have 150 kilometers of road.

To get to Mersina and from there
take a boat to Greece.

-And you're telling me about the livestock?
-I understand, chairman.

But don't worry, I know what I'm going to do.

I won't leave my livestock
to be looted by the Turks.

Wait, Theodore!

What am I waiting for, my priest?

They're taking us out of our homes,
driven from our land.

They steal our livestock
and you tell me to wait?

Wait for what? For God to come down?
Let him come down!

Let him come down and tell us
What justice is this.

How you talk to our priest like that,
Mr. Theodore? Have you forgotten what he did for us?

Prodrome, go and light
the candles.

-I've lit them, my Hajiefendi.
-You didn't light them all. Go!

Now, Prodrome.

Bless us.

He came down, Theodore, and we crucified Him.

Tell me what righteousness is this!

(FATHER) Another is the justice of men
and another of God.

We all share the same pain,
but don't let your pain

to do injustice to Prodromo.

Because beyond the houses,
our possessions and our livestock

Prodrome has to think about
guarding the lives of all the villagers.

The Chetas are everywhere,
we may find them on our way.

Prodromos has a lot to worry about.
as the chairman in all of this.

And me as your priest,
I have other things to worry about.

Let's all get there safely.
as Prodromos said,

and not lose our souls
on the way.

We must all prepare ourselves
for this journey.

Those of you who have not confessed,
confess and receive communion.

And for those of you who have unchristened children
after the Savior, let us baptize them all.

Let no child go unbaptized!
Now drag yourselves to your homes

And tell your wives
and your children to get ready

And do what I told you.
God bless us all.

Father.

Yes, Jordan.

If a Turk dares to approach
my house before we leave.

I'll kill him even if they hang me
in the yard of my house.

No one's coming, Jordan.
before we leave.

They better be.

-Thank you, Father.
-What do you thank me for, blessed one?

For the help, Father.

I'm an old man,
What help can I give you?

Beg God to help you
to get you through this.

Only with His help and
and His strength will you get through.

I wish the Saint Prodromos was
at your side as your guide and support

Come on, with my blessing.
You have a lot of work ahead of you.

(dramatic music)

We had a birthing yesterday.

Our bride gave us our eighth.

Two of them are close to you.

Boy, yes.

We'll call him Chris.

Now it came my little precious,
at this difficult time.

I brought you from your basil,
father.

How do I not have it? He rooted.
You should see how he grow...

How you liked it, father!

And how handsome you were when
when you put it at your ear and danced!

Mama, I told the children the story
about the tree.

But you know how I feel? Like a tree
that's being uprooted.

Where can you transplant me now?
The old, crippled tree?

I wanted... to be here, next to you.

To lie down, to sleep near you.

But...

The little one is here now,
how can I abandon it?

How can I abandon it?

You were telling me, Mama, that God doesn't
gives us a bigger cross to bear.

Than the one possible for us to bear.

Wishing for me strength
to bear it.

I love you.

Thank you for what you did.
for me.

Wish me to be a good daughter
until I am near you.

(humming)
It smells like basil in here...

(end of music)

(RAFAEL) Mana! Mana!

Did Hajiefendi say to baptize
all the unchristened babies in the village!

-Mama?
-What are you shouting?

-Where's the mother?
-What do you want her for?

-We're going to baptize the baby!
-What?

-We're going to baptize the baby!
-Should we leave it unchristened?

-We're gonna baptize it now!
-Now? Are you out of your mind?

-What is it, Raphael?
-We're going to baptize the baby!

-And, what? We're gonna leave it unchristened?
-That's what I told him.

Now we're going to baptize it,
after the Transfiguration.

-What do you think?
-Now, said the Hajiefendi.

But it'll only be thirteen days old.

(Eulogia) Bless you, my life.

If Hajiefendi said it.
Blessed be.

-Mother, what name shall we give it?
-Grandfather's name. Christos.

Forgive me, Hajichristina.

You want to name someone
after grandpa,

Should I wish to have
a monk after me?

(baby crying)

(FATHER) The servant of God is baptized
Arsenios,

in the name of the Father

And of the Son

And of the Holy Spirit.

Amen.

(chanting)

God, bless it.
Light its way,care for it and provide wellbeing.

Take, mother, your child.
Bless with Chrism, and baptized.

The holy angels above bear witness,
Below, sinful men.

As this candle is lit.
I wish it would shine, be lighted

And illuminate the people.

(FATHER) Take care of it and t
grow it in the fear and admonition of the Lord.

And you, godmother, next door. You've got a great
responsibility for his spiritual advancement.

Together you will admonish him and
and lead him in the way of Christ.

Amen, Father.

But now that we're leaving
from our homes, we're going to lose everything.

Don't lose Christ, Anastasia.
and our souls.

Everything else is done.

Forgive me, Father,
but it's a great pain.

And God is greater.
What did he tell us?

"Anyone who wants to come with me,

Let him take up his cross
and let him follow."

We will lift him up, Anastasia.
our cross.

With His help we will bear it.

We will go to Greece,
but we won't all stay together.

(FATHER) We will scatter in different places.

What do you think, Father?

Let's all be together.
Why should we scatter?

(FATHER) We're going to an island.
Temporarily you'll stay there.

Why do you say "You're going"? What about you, Father?

Pray for me, a sinner, too.

(FATHER) Go on, live long.
the new convert.

And shine like a bright light
before the throne of God.

(dramatic music)

-Come on, Prodrome, let's go.
-I'm not going anywhere.

What do you say, blessed one?

If you don't say that where we will be
you'll be with us, I'm not going anywhere.

The disobedient Prodromos.

I am disobedient, but wherever Father Arsenios is,
there is the Prodromos.

I didn't say it, the despot did.

And if the despot said so
you cannot refuse.

Where will you go and we won't be together?

(end of music)

(Eulogia) How do I get you down from here?
Tell me.

Oh, my Saint George, talk to me.

Care for us. With your horse beside us
be with us on the journey.

Holy Mary! Our mama!

Help us, please. Not even as far as
until your feast day, they let us stay.

What is this? Fourteenth of the month
we have to leave.

Why should we not celebrate thee, O Holy Mary
and then go?

He says we won't make the boat.
Can't the boat wait?

We are going to a foreign country.

Don't leave us!

Have mercy on your children,
don't leave us, Holy Mary.

My daughter!

My daughter, my Eulogia.

The blessing of our home
you are my daughter.

She will not leave us. Wherever we go,
she will be with us.

(dramatic music)

Nor the feast of Her
they won't let us have.

We'll celebrate her wherever we go
wherever we be.

We carry it in our hearts
Our Lady.

Where will they take us, Mother? Where?

Our Lady was a girl when she had
little Christ and they left for Egypt.

Herod's soldiers were coming.

You think she thought about what she'd take
and what to abandon? And where will she go?

Ah! She lived through the pain too
of uprooting.

She knows she won't leave us.
until we come back.

Are we coming back, Mum?

I told mum.
And father.

I'm leaving, they'll bury me somewhere else

but your grandchildren
and your great-grandchildren will come back.

A hundred years from now,
they will come.

(continuation of dramatic music)

Mother, when is the carriage coming?

I hope it never comes.

-Prodrome, are we all?
-Now, Father. They are being counted.

(THEODOR) Get out!
Go away, I tell you!

Go away or they'll find you here,
I hope God's curse will find them!

Scatter! Run for your lives!

Get away! Get out!

Get away, get away!

Father, Theodore is missing.

Where has the blessed one gone?

(Go away, I tell you!
