Elle, it's not her, right?
Elle, it's not Katya, right?
The hell is this?
Dog heads looks like.
What do you mean...
So this is typical around here, or what?
— What do you want to hear?
— Well, this is some…
Someone's killing dogs, chopping their heads off.
So it figures.
Why the hell would anyone even do that for? Who?
Fuck if I know.
Some kind of sadist.
Or some aspiring naturalist.
I mean, if you've got people going missing
around here, and now this.
We've got far more than this around here, boy.
Yeah? Well it might be a serial killer,
practising here on doggies first,
and then goes this like...
Nah.
I liked the naturalist option better.
Me too, what's all this about serial killers suddenly? Let's get out of here.
I don't get it...
Are you playing on his side now?
They never admit if there's a serial killer.
Just write it off as domestic abuse...
anything to avoid a serial investigation.
And so enters comrade Zheglov?
Well, you just sit on your ass here
and can't even accept a report.
Have you thought of the fact that
my ass alone has to cover
two thousand square kilometres, huh?
People are capable of shit here
with no need for serial killers.
Look, please, how hard can it be
for you to file a report?
My sweet girl…
Fine, I'll do it.
But note in the papers that
she went missing earlier.
and not yesterday.
Say you've waited for a time period required by law.
M'kay?
Yes, all right.
And haul out of here today out of harm's way.
— You got that?
— Yes, yes, we got it.
But we need gas to haul out of here first.
We've got what? This is nonsense, Denny!
What do you mean?
We'll scram and he's going to put this under wraps!
There's someone out there.

Stop!
Hey, stop!
Stop!
Max!
I will shoot.
Motherfucker!
Ellia!
Max! Where are you?
What the hell is this?
Hey, guys!
Guys, I'm in here!
What the…
Guys, I'm in here!
Hear that?
Denny!
It's Max.
Max!
Guys! Hello!
Coming from there, it seems.
There. Eat it!
Where's Katya?
Who's Katya?
You think I won't shoot, motherfucker?
Guys! Hey!
— Hi there!
— Wow.
You ok?
— I'll live, I guess.
— Where's Ellia?
Further up, went after him.
Go after her…
— Why me?
— Oh, go on, go.
Here. Come on. Come on.
Grab it. Grab it...
Come on, hold on to me.
Come on, come on, come on.
Come on, hold on, hold on.
— Careful!
— No, no, no!
— I'm sorry, I'm sorry...
— Who the hell dug this up?
— Old habits again?
— I'm sorry.
Shit.
Just who are you?
That's Ellia.
I'm — Denis.
Hi there, dudes.
Hullo. Look, reinforcements.
Lousy.
Hey, put the gun on the ground, quick!
I said, put the gun on the ground,
and my friend will come get it.
I'm not going to get anything.
You can't enter the circle anyhow,
so don't even think it.
— You'll be goners then.
— Says who?
Says the master.
The master is one for all here.
Well now, had your fun, tracker-scouts?
Maybe I should just bury you in there
and that'd be that?
Are you crazy?
So many issues could be resolved at once.
Are you retarded, captain?
That's a joke.
And you know what, how about some respect.
What the shit is going on here, man?
In your own fucking neighbourhood?
No one's allowed in the circle, but us.
Break the rule and your days are done.
Wait, wait, easy, easy now. What're you doing?
Why the tomatoes?
Excuse me, kids, this is urgent now.
We'll come get you later.
Hey, what the actual? Where're you off to?
Sorry, dudes.
Put the gun away.
Have you seen our Katya?
Hey, put the banger away!
We don't know any Katya.
Told you it's forbidden! Are you fresh?
You smoke?
And who left the dog heads?
Have they pilfered his sack?
Imagine, and tossed the heads out.
Now they're goners for sure.
That sack was the master's,
you shouldn't have touched that.
What kind of shit is this? Who the hell are you?
We're the gated.
Released on parole. We are settled here.
All's proper, got papers too.
So you're convicts?
Told you, we're gated.
Freed years ago.
Why hang around the woods then,
if you're gated?
Not the woods,
the circle.
And this master of yours is Beelzebub?
The fuck, you city folk, looking for around here?
We came for the monastery.
And who brought you here?
Well, I did.
Then why you're asking these dumb
fucking questions?
What's he going on about?
No idea.
Hey!
Who fired?
Come here. Here.
We need to make ourselves
scarce before he finds us.
Why the hell is that?
How are you going to explain your gun to him?
What the hell, they have a gun too.
What are you thinking? You need a mirror?
You think he cares who's right or wrong here?
He'll bring in who he can and shake just as much cash.
Let's move.
Wait.
They know something, surely.
We'll come back here later.
I've placed a mark on the phone.
Thanks.
— Bye.
— You don't mind, do you?
Go on, bodgies, get the fuck out of here.
Bye.
Look, she has probably left already,
and so should we, while we can.
Who was firing?
There're some convicts, they have a rifle.
Convicts?
Yeah. They have a shack over there, two of them.
Didn't you know about that, captain?
Oh, those are the gated ones. I have them on file.
So that's who you chased after?
Well, yes.
Listen, you need to question them.
And search that lodge of theirs, right away.
Search the lodge…
What the hell for?
What the hell for?
Captain, are you in your right mind?
Because they may have Katya in there.
I'm telling you, they definitely know something.
All right, you go on out of harm's way,
I'll question them.
Who knows, convicts... armed.
Go on, now, go, go.
Militia's at work here.
Your friends got themselves in a dungeon there.
Take care of that in the meantime.
They were talking about some master.
Said that everything here is his.
Talking, walking.
We'll sort it out.
He brushed us off.
— The cop.
— Aha.
He's not going to question anyone.
You hear me?
Do you not care about anything?
No, damn it, I'll go see
how he is dealing with them.
Me too.
Where to? You've got a strap in your purse.
Go find the guys.
Tinker! Chump!
Come out!
Hey, listen, we need to talk!
Come on, you...
Thank you.
You know, in Angarsk, cops were
filing serial killings under domestic stuff too.
And in Novosib, the killer turned out
to be a cop himself.
As I said, I've checked everything there.
Your Katya isn't there.
They wouldn't have dared anyway.
They're both on parole,
I've got their balls right here.
What's this about the master then?
The poor sods are drinking themselves
silly and spout nonsense.
And who's digging these pits up?
Heck if I know who digs them.
There're many things in this world, Pinocchio,
which you shouldn't stick your nose in.
Oh, ok, let's go then.
Hey-hey, what are you doing? We need the village!
Why get back to the village?
I have your report.
I'll dispatch a telegram to Onega,
they'll send people to investigate.
And there's no need for gas,
I'll just drop you at the train station now.
— Stop the car, mister.
— Watch it.
I'm staying here.
Until I've figured out what the hell
is going on around here, I'm not going anywhere.
— So am I.
— What can we do anyway, guys?
I actually need to get back to Moscow already.
— What's up? Are you bitching out?
— What do you mean, bitching out?
I mean, you dragged us out here,
a girl went missing, are you nuts?
Are you just not fucking bothered at all?
I am bothered.
— Pull over, we're not leaving her.
— Get your hand off me!
I'm on duty.
And you're suddenly so concerned about her
you, presstitute?
Smelled a gutter story?
That's enough, please.
Whoop dee do.
And whose would this be then?
We came out here on it.
So yours then?
No, there was a driver.
He took off at Mudyuga.
— So you were coming here purposefully?
— Well, yeah.
So he took off and left the ride to you,
is that how it's looking to be?
Looks like it. We've had a deal,
we'd get there ourselves, and he just...
Vanished.
So what do we have here:
one more missing person, it would seem, yes?
Yes! Fucking yes!
All right…
Oy!
You can stay.
Look around for your own.
This is getting to be too much for me alone.
I'll be back tomorrow.
Comrade captain.
What now?
Are you Mudyuga bound?
Why?
I just need to get back to Moscow, gimme a lift?
Nah,
I can't.
Need to question folk.
Stay with them a while.
Well then, we could still figure something out, right?
You need money?
I have it.
This enough?
It's not?
Have it all.
Kid, you think you can just buy anything
in this world don't you?
I still need to find my own guy.
Your own guy?
My colleague disappeared with
his uniform and service weapon.
That's no noble damsel, mind you.
Went to see his grandma,
and never returned.
Guess I'll have to raise up central for this.
Boy, am I going to get slapped.
Go on now, go.
"Stay among us little boy,
as our king forevermore".
So, what'd he say?
Says there's another cop missing here.
Get out!
I have told you, man.
There's some wild shit around here.
A serial killer.
It's all right. Don't you worry though.
We'll bend them all over yet, right?
Now that's what I call real work.
Not some digging through somebody's soiled laundry.
— I suppose you have been?
— I'm not going to.
I wasn't bred for that stuff.
What for then?
For decent work.
Dude.
You do know, there's nothing decent
in your line of work.
— Oh yeah?
— Of course.
You think I haven't read your "Moska"?
And you think people go to study journalism
so they could learn to lie and kiss ass?
No, man, they want to make this fucking world better!
The shit just sticks to the shovel over time.
Come on, dude, you won't change a thing.
Fuck "Moska"!
It's going to be a rep for "Meduza" or even
Channel One, depending on who the killer is.
Hey, you're just shitting your pants.
Don't be a pussy, come now, don't fret.
Come on, you can't fix the world if you're afraid?
You weren't afraid with the feds.
The whole country watched breathless
while you told them to fuck off.
What's this got to do with it?
We all have our moment of glory.
That's what.
Lassies!
You want to love me - love me then,
the way you love your mother
You want to touch me - touch then,
but I'm just a hologram
Go on then search for treasures
in the true depths of my soul
But all who've ever been there
perished in a monster's maw
Nobody ever saved themselves
from my eternal nightmares
The keyholes hold a current
come and see if you survive it
The height becomes the low
where edelweisses grow
Get up there if you want,
be careful not to fall, though.
...like me. Home alone, mom alone.
Sink deep where mdma is my own.
I own home alone, mom alone.
Dig deep by mdma I'm owned.
I'm soaring over hills
and over mountain cliffs up high.
The shining you can see
cuts up the fabric of the sky.
You'll find the void more solid
when you touch it easily.
Let's make a deal: be gentle when you handle me.
I'll open bare for you to see
and tear the stitches wide.
All those who ever mended me
have left something inside
Be sure and sterilise yourself for immersion.
Let's watch together as you mess this up with emotions.
and I'll remain alone, on my own, mom alone.
I sink deep where mdma is my own.
I own home alone, mom alone.
I dig deep by mdma I'm owned.

Uchcuduq - Three Water Wells
Let the sun shine above it.
You're a circle of saving grace in the desert, Uchcuduq.
You go on home.
I need to have a word with someone here.
With whom?
Well, there's this girl. She's just shy.
Not fond of strangers.
But I seem to have tamed her.
Hey, would you go bring water?
And I'll make you some tea.
It's tough hauling it by myself.
Fine, it's all right, let me bring it.
I wanted to talk.
Then talk.
To talk or to gawk?
We've met convicts in the woods,
while out searching for Katya.
They say you have somebody around here…
some master.
Would you know whom they mean?
Cause, you see, I work for a big media outlet
in Moscow, as a reporter... Specializing in this
sort of stuff. High profile cases.
Cops tend to shroud these, and I...
Well, that's mighty good of you.
You have a serial killer here, right?
And that turncoat of yours lets it all slide.
If you're afraid out here,
maybe we can talk inside?
You don't need to go inside our house, trust me.
Trust me, I do need to.
I need this a lot.
Well, you've been warned.
Hello.
Excuse me!
I'm so sorry, sorry, excuse me...
Have you seen a girl? This is her scarf.
It's so good.
A girl?
I have seen her. I have.
Really? Where?
Just as I see you now.
I have seen you before, a long-long time ago.
Where have I seen you?
I'm sorry, but we haven't met.
Right.
I was still young then, a hundred years ago.
We were friends, remember?
I'm so sorry, I am in a hurry…
Do... do you know where I live?
I need to leave here, I have to.
Can I have the scarf back?
Hey, you can't have it! It's my scarf!
You can't have it, it's not yours, you snake! Go away!
Go away! It's my scarf, snake!
"I'd learn Russian solely because
this was the language of Lenin" M. Gorky
Mother!
That's enough!
Put that away.
Away, I said.
Turn your head here.
Your head, look at me.
Go on.
One more.
Drink it, God damn it.
You're awesome.
When I first saw you, I thought: just a teen.
And you have this to deal with.
It's fine. We get by.
Mother gets decent retirement benefit,
with 200% bonus from the combine.
— The combine?
— Yeah.
Porozhsky Combine,
it's fuming away over there.
She worked there for ten years,
until there was an accident.
Industrial.
And after the accident she's like this.
What are they making over there
art this combine then?
I don't know.
Go and ask her yourself.
Who's that there?
It's me, Ana Petrovna.
Oh, Venny, Venny dear, look you've got
your crosswords all over the place.
Hi.
So have you found your lass?
We'll keep looking until we do.
Well...
It's another thousand then,
since you're staying and all.
And it would be good to add some for the table.
— This enough?
— Hungry?
I'll fry some potatoes for ya.
Then wanted to go to church.
I feel tired.
I'll go lie down.
Arina.
You're still just a kid.
Are you actually going to stay
here your whole life?
This is mad!
Who cares if it's 200% or not!
Do you even know what Moscow actually is?
Yeah, I've seen on the telly.
Nightclubs, bars,
cinemas, restaurants,
garms and shit, shopping malls.
Listen,
are you getting to fuck me?
Nah, well, what's this got to do with it?
Look, mister.
Don't even try to sweet talk me.
I won't give it to you.
You think you can prance in here,
investigate around a bit,
spin a field romance,
bloody Leftenant Rzhevsky,
and then go back?
Yeah, me and mom live in all this.
And we're just fine, we're used to it, mind you.
So don't try and buy me with your
fairy tales of Moscow.
Saddle your horse and ciao.
Eat up your tallow slabs.
Yeah…
You've seen plenty on telly, all right.
So will you tell me anything about this master?
You mean all that bullshit and wooing were for this?
Just so you could sniff something out?
Not really.
You're…
You're very…
I liked you a lot.
Like you.
Even despite the…
Even more so actually.
It will get dark soon.
We go to bed early around here.
You never know who walks the night.
Mother!
Cut this out now.
That's enough, stop it.
Stop it, I said!
Stand up, stand properly and go to bed!
Go to your room.
Move.
Go home.
And stay out of this.
You won't get anything from it,
you'll just get in trouble.
Will you be here tomorrow? I…
Can I come over again?
I'll always be here.
So... I can, then?
I'll take it as a yes.
Should I wake him up then?
He'll sleep through supper like this.
Let me try maybe.
Come, let the lad sleep.
Dead tired, no doubt.
There, he wakes.
Come join us, sleepy head.
There's still plenty left.
Go on, lad, take my place then.
I've had my fill.
I thought you were dead.
Well, now.
And I thought you were.
Nah, I'm alive.
Oh really...
Come again?
You didn't just get here normally.
Ok, fine, so...
There was an accident,
the driver vanished,
and we're all ok.
It's either that, or the other way around.
I think it's the other way around.
Sony.
Sonya!
Why do you play along with the dead?
He is dead.
I've seen his grave at the cemetery just now.
I took a pic even.

So where are we then?
In the afterlife.
What afterlife?
It's something like a harbour
or like a detention centre.
Following along?
Not following.
That's all right.
No one does straight away.
Why am I even listening to you?
You talking bollocks.
Some kind of afterlife.
Anyway,
I've no time,
need to get back to Moscow,
I have urgent matters to settle.
My mom is waiting.
This is exactly what afterlife is for,
so you'd realise, finally, that you died.
People die, and don't even realise.
Fussing and fretting.
Keep wanting to settle some affairs, you see.
Cool off a bit, lad,
there is nowhere to rush.
Listen, dude, I'm alive.
I can feel everything.
My head is basically splitting, you understand?
Do you know how much cut off legs hurt?
Denis, don't be angry
and do not fear.
It's good you brought us here.
Don't you ever miss the dead?
Sonya, what's up with you?
I want to be with the living.
You don't even have a scarf, do ya?
Here.
Hold this.
Lord, have mercy on this servant of yours Ana,
for a sin of great grievance...
Gran Noora, let us go back.
The guys will be looking for us.
We'll get back before dark.
Why have I agreed to come at all?
Agreed you have.
Came all this way and there it is,
right here... go back, you say.
So he wasn't there. You've missed him.
All the more reason to come.
Gran Noora, what am I going to tell him?
Enough! Please!
Tell him, what you have come with.
Of your sister. Of your sorrow of heart.
Of what's left unsaid, didn't get time for.
Of missed funeral.
And what would he give me?
He's the one who took her!
— Don't talk like that.
— Why did he take her?
Can you explain to me, why? Why?
She just wanted to.. live, to love,
to live normal life, like an ordinary girl.
Not in this swelter of yours.
— Come now. Why do you resist so?
— Gran Noora, enough already.
- Why do you resist!
- I said, I won't go. There's no one there!
No one there at all! If there was,
he would never do something like that!
Why are you such a spoiled brat!
Bow before him. Ask.
I've prayed mine away, and you'll pray for yours.
I said, I won't go!
Where is everyone?
Everything ok?
I don't know.
I just woke up.
Not bad, man. You're a sleep champ.
Where were you?
Ah, here, around.
Where'd they get to?
I don't know.
They weren't here when I came.
Then I got kind of woozy,
as if I fainted or something.
So, this may seem a little weird...
Get this, I just had a dream:
So, there's this old man,
well, he's here, and it's all for real.
He sits at the table,
we're having dinner,
and he says, you guys are all dead.
Our whole gang.
That's baloney,
but yeah, creepy I guess.
I just thought, maybe,
that truck, you know...
What?
We were actually killed.
What is your name?
— Sophia.
— And your sister?
What's it matter?
Who shall I ask for?
There's no need to ask anything.
Pride is a mortal sin.
Everything is sin to you.
This, that.
Can't make a single step without sinning.
So what?
God and the devil don't shy away from mundane.
Read up the Old Testament.
First few chapters especially.
Goats, sheep, all these family quarrels.
Mundane as can be.
That's God playing checkers
with the devil for human souls.
Well if he does so...
punishes…
Just because... before marriage.
And they had true love.
Not some, whoring around, if you pardon me.
What happened?
Crash. On a motorbike.
No.
He does not punish like that.
The old man said, people
need time to realise they've died.
Maybe there is no old man at all.
Granny's just bonkers,
buried him and misses still.
Plenty of grannies like that in Russian villages.
We haven't even seen him once.
We've heard him.
Well, he's in that room there,
let's check it out, why not.
Let's go.
Can we come in?
I beg thee, Lord,
for the deceased servant of yours, Elisabeth.
You can say here.
Say what?
What you hadn't said to your sister in time.
I just didn't get to say goodbye.
Well then.
Forgive me.
Forgive me, for leaving you alone with him.
Lisa?
How much dew of the sky
In this river of acid
How long dog remains frightened
Or remains loyal
What is up with these scales
Both their panes seem endless
So my life became damaged
And there's naught to be done with it
I no longer belong. be alone.
all my memories are shattered
of the one I lament without comfort.
you no longer be long
and if you can discover your place
would you tell me the truth,
whom do you serve?
I no longer belong.
How long? I don't know
Elle, it's not her, right?
Elle, it's not Katya, right?
The hell is this?
Dog heads looks like.
What do you mean...
So this is typical around here, or what?
— What do you want to hear?
— Well, this is some…
Someone's killing dogs, chopping their heads off.
So it figures.
Why the hell would anyone even do that for? Who?
Fuck if I know.
Some kind of sadist.
Or some aspiring naturalist.

We've got far more than this around here, boy.
Yeah? Well it might be a serial killer,

Nah.
I liked the naturalist option better.
Me too, what's all this about serial killers suddenly? Let's get out of here.
I don't get it...
Are you playing on his side now?
They never admit if there's a serial killer.
Just write it off as domestic abuse...

And so enters comrade Zheglov?
Well, you just sit on your ass here
and can't even accept a report.
Have you thought of the fact that

People are capable of shit here

Look, please, how hard can it be

We'll scram and he's going to put this under wraps!
There's someone out there.

Stop!
Hey, stop!
Stop!

I will shoot.
Motherfucker!

Max! Where are you?
What the hell is this?
Hey, guys!
Guys, I'm in here!
What the…
Guys, I'm in here!
Hear that?
Denny!
It's Max.
Max!
Guys! Hello!
Coming from there, it seems.
There. Eat it!
Where's Katya?
Who's Katya?
You think I won't shoot, motherfucker?
Guys! Hey!
— Hi there!
— Wow.
You ok?
— I'll live, I guess.
— Where's Ellia?
Further up, went after him.
Go after her…
— Why me?
— Oh, go on, go.
Here. Come on. Come on.
Grab it. Grab it...
Come on, hold on to me.
Come on, come on, come on.
Come on, hold on, hold on.
— Careful!
— No, no, no!
— I'm sorry, I'm sorry...
— Who the hell dug this up?
— Old habits again?
— I'm sorry.
Shit.
Just who are you?
That's Ellia.
I'm — Denis.
Hi there, dudes.
Hullo. Look, reinforcements.
Lousy.
Hey, put the gun on the ground, quick!
I said, put the gun on the ground,
and my friend will come get it.
I'm not going to get anything.
You can't enter the circle anyhow,
so don't even think it.
— You'll be goners then.
— Says who?
Says the master.
The master is one for all here.
Well now, had your fun, tracker-scouts?
Maybe I should just bury you in there
and that'd be that?
Are you crazy?
So many issues could be resolved at once.
Are you retarded, captain?
That's a joke.
And you know what, how about some respect.
What the shit is going on here, man?
In your own fucking neighbourhood?
No one's allowed in the circle, but us.
Break the rule and your days are done.
Wait, wait, easy, easy now. What're you doing?
Why the tomatoes?
Excuse me, kids, this is urgent now.
We'll come get you later.
Hey, what the actual? Where're you off to?
Sorry, dudes.
Put the gun away.
Have you seen our Katya?
Hey, put the banger away!
We don't know any Katya.
Told you it's forbidden! Are you fresh?
You smoke?
And who left the dog heads?
Have they pilfered his sack?
Imagine, and tossed the heads out.
Now they're goners for sure.
That sack was the master's,
you shouldn't have touched that.
What kind of shit is this? Who the hell are you?
We're the gated.
Released on parole. We are settled here.
All's proper, got papers too.
So you're convicts?
Told you, we're gated.
Freed years ago.
Why hang around the woods then,
if you're gated?
Not the woods,
the circle.
And this master of yours is Beelzebub?
The fuck, you city folk, looking for around here?
We came for the monastery.
And who brought you here?
Well, I did.
Then why you're asking these dumb
fucking questions?
What's he going on about?
No idea.
Hey!
Who fired?
Come here. Here.
We need to make ourselves
scarce before he finds us.
Why the hell is that?
How are you going to explain your gun to him?
What the hell, they have a gun too.
What are you thinking? You need a mirror?
You think he cares who's right or wrong here?
He'll bring in who he can and shake just as much cash.
Let's move.
Wait.
They know something, surely.
We'll come back here later.
I've placed a mark on the phone.
Thanks.
— Bye.
— You don't mind, do you?
Go on, bodgies, get the fuck out of here.
Bye.
Look, she has probably left already,
and so should we, while we can.
Who was firing?
There're some convicts, they have a rifle.
Convicts?
Yeah. They have a shack over there, two of them.
Didn't you know about that, captain?
Oh, those are the gated ones. I have them on file.
So that's who you chased after?
Well, yes.
Listen, you need to question them.
And search that lodge of theirs, right away.
Search the lodge…
What the hell for?
What the hell for?
Captain, are you in your right mind?
Because they may have Katya in there.
I'm telling you, they definitely know something.
All right, you go on out of harm's way,
I'll question them.
Who knows, convicts... armed.
Go on, now, go, go.
Militia's at work here.
Your friends got themselves in a dungeon there.
Take care of that in the meantime.
They were talking about some master.
Said that everything here is his.
Talking, walking.
We'll sort it out.
He brushed us off.
— The cop.
— Aha.
He's not going to question anyone.
You hear me?
Do you not care about anything?
No, damn it, I'll go see
how he is dealing with them.
Me too.
Where to? You've got a strap in your purse.
Go find the guys.
Tinker! Chump!
Come out!
Hey, listen, we need to talk!
Come on, you...
Thank you.
You know, in Angarsk, cops were
filing serial killings under domestic stuff too.
And in Novosib, the killer turned out
to be a cop himself.
As I said, I've checked everything there.
Your Katya isn't there.
They wouldn't have dared anyway.
They're both on parole,
I've got their balls right here.
What's this about the master then?
The poor sods are drinking themselves
silly and spout nonsense.
And who's digging these pits up?
Heck if I know who digs them.
There're many things in this world, Pinocchio,
which you shouldn't stick your nose in.
Oh, ok, let's go then.
Hey-hey, what are you doing? We need the village!
Why get back to the village?
I have your report.
I'll dispatch a telegram to Onega,
they'll send people to investigate.
And there's no need for gas,
I'll just drop you at the train station now.
— Stop the car, mister.
— Watch it.
I'm staying here.
Until I've figured out what the hell
is going on around here, I'm not going anywhere.
— So am I.
— What can we do anyway, guys?
I actually need to get back to Moscow already.
— What's up? Are you bitching out?
— What do you mean, bitching out?
I mean, you dragged us out here,
a girl went missing, are you nuts?
Are you just not fucking bothered at all?
I am bothered.
— Pull over, we're not leaving her.
— Get your hand off me!
I'm on duty.
And you're suddenly so concerned about her
you, presstitute?
Smelled a gutter story?
That's enough, please.
Whoop dee do.
And whose would this be then?
We came out here on it.
So yours then?
No, there was a driver.
He took off at Mudyuga.
— So you were coming here purposefully?
— Well, yeah.
So he took off and left the ride to you,
is that how it's looking to be?
Looks like it. We've had a deal,
we'd get there ourselves, and he just...
Vanished.
So what do we have here:
one more missing person, it would seem, yes?
Yes! Fucking yes!
All right…
Oy!
You can stay.
Look around for your own.
This is getting to be too much for me alone.
I'll be back tomorrow.
Comrade captain.
What now?
Are you Mudyuga bound?
Why?
I just need to get back to Moscow, gimme a lift?
Nah,
I can't.
Need to question folk.
Stay with them a while.
Well then, we could still figure something out, right?
You need money?
I have it.
This enough?
It's not?
Have it all.
Kid, you think you can just buy anything
in this world don't you?
I still need to find my own guy.
Your own guy?
My colleague disappeared with
his uniform and service weapon.
That's no noble damsel, mind you.
Went to see his grandma,
and never returned.
Guess I'll have to raise up central for this.
Boy, am I going to get slapped.
Go on now, go.
"Stay among us little boy,
as our king forevermore".
So, what'd he say?
Says there's another cop missing here.
Get out!
I have told you, man.
There's some wild shit around here.
A serial killer.
It's all right. Don't you worry though.
We'll bend them all over yet, right?
Now that's what I call real work.
Not some digging through somebody's soiled laundry.
— I suppose you have been?
— I'm not going to.
I wasn't bred for that stuff.
What for then?
For decent work.
Dude.
You do know, there's nothing decent
in your line of work.
— Oh yeah?
— Of course.
You think I haven't read your "Moska"?
And you think people go to study journalism
so they could learn to lie and kiss ass?
No, man, they want to make this fucking world better!
The shit just sticks to the shovel over time.
Come on, dude, you won't change a thing.
Fuck "Moska"!
It's going to be a rep for "Meduza" or even
Channel One, depending on who the killer is.
Hey, you're just shitting your pants.
Don't be a pussy, come now, don't fret.
Come on, you can't fix the world if you're afraid?
You weren't afraid with the feds.
The whole country watched breathless
while you told them to fuck off.
What's this got to do with it?
We all have our moment of glory.
That's what.
Lassies!
You want to love me - love me then,
the way you love your mother
You want to touch me - touch then,
but I'm just a hologram
Go on then search for treasures
in the true depths of my soul
But all who've ever been there
perished in a monster's maw
Nobody ever saved themselves
from my eternal nightmares
The keyholes hold a current
come and see if you survive it
The height becomes the low
where edelweisses grow
Get up there if you want,
be careful not to fall, though.
...like me. Home alone, mom alone.
Sink deep where mdma is my own.
I own home alone, mom alone.
Dig deep by mdma I'm owned.
I'm soaring over hills
and over mountain cliffs up high.
The shining you can see
cuts up the fabric of the sky.
You'll find the void more solid
when you touch it easily.
Let's make a deal: be gentle when you handle me.
I'll open bare for you to see
and tear the stitches wide.
All those who ever mended me
have left something inside
Be sure and sterilise yourself for immersion.
Let's watch together as you mess this up with emotions.
and I'll remain alone, on my own, mom alone.
I sink deep where mdma is my own.
I own home alone, mom alone.
I dig deep by mdma I'm owned.

Uchcuduq - Three Water Wells
Let the sun shine above it.
You're a circle of saving grace in the desert, Uchcuduq.
You go on home.
I need to have a word with someone here.
With whom?
Well, there's this girl. She's just shy.
Not fond of strangers.
But I seem to have tamed her.
Hey, would you go bring water?
And I'll make you some tea.
It's tough hauling it by myself.
Fine, it's all right, let me bring it.
I wanted to talk.
Then talk.
To talk or to gawk?
We've met convicts in the woods,
while out searching for Katya.
They say you have somebody around here…
some master.
Would you know whom they mean?
Cause, you see, I work for a big media outlet
in Moscow, as a reporter... Specializing in this
sort of stuff. High profile cases.
Cops tend to shroud these, and I...
Well, that's mighty good of you.
You have a serial killer here, right?
And that turncoat of yours lets it all slide.
If you're afraid out here,
maybe we can talk inside?
You don't need to go inside our house, trust me.
Trust me, I do need to.
I need this a lot.
Well, you've been warned.
Hello.
Excuse me!
I'm so sorry, sorry, excuse me...
Have you seen a girl? This is her scarf.
It's so good.
A girl?
I have seen her. I have.
Really? Where?
Just as I see you now.
I have seen you before, a long-long time ago.
Where have I seen you?
I'm sorry, but we haven't met.
Right.
I was still young then, a hundred years ago.
We were friends, remember?
I'm so sorry, I am in a hurry…
Do... do you know where I live?
I need to leave here, I have to.
Can I have the scarf back?
Hey, you can't have it! It's my scarf!
You can't have it, it's not yours, you snake! Go away!
Go away! It's my scarf, snake!
"I'd learn Russian solely because
this was the language of Lenin" M. Gorky
Mother!
That's enough!
Put that away.
Away, I said.
Turn your head here.
Your head, look at me.
Go on.
One more.
Drink it, God damn it.
You're awesome.
When I first saw you, I thought: just a teen.
And you have this to deal with.
It's fine. We get by.
Mother gets decent retirement benefit,
with 200% bonus from the combine.
— The combine?
— Yeah.
Porozhsky Combine,
it's fuming away over there.
She worked there for ten years,
until there was an accident.
Industrial.
And after the accident she's like this.
What are they making over there
art this combine then?
I don't know.
Go and ask her yourself.
Who's that there?
It's me, Ana Petrovna.
Oh, Venny, Venny dear, look you've got
your crosswords all over the place.
Hi.
So have you found your lass?
We'll keep looking until we do.
Well...
It's another thousand then,
since you're staying and all.
And it would be good to add some for the table.
— This enough?
— Hungry?
I'll fry some potatoes for ya.
Then wanted to go to church.
I feel tired.
I'll go lie down.
Arina.
You're still just a kid.
Are you actually going to stay
here your whole life?
This is mad!
Who cares if it's 200% or not!
Do you even know what Moscow actually is?
Yeah, I've seen on the telly.
Nightclubs, bars,
cinemas, restaurants,
garms and shit, shopping malls.
Listen,
are you getting to fuck me?
Nah, well, what's this got to do with it?
Look, mister.
Don't even try to sweet talk me.
I won't give it to you.
You think you can prance in here,
investigate around a bit,
spin a field romance,
bloody Leftenant Rzhevsky,
and then go back?
Yeah, me and mom live in all this.
And we're just fine, we're used to it, mind you.
So don't try and buy me with your
fairy tales of Moscow.
Saddle your horse and ciao.
Eat up your tallow slabs.
Yeah…
You've seen plenty on telly, all right.
So will you tell me anything about this master?
You mean all that bullshit and wooing were for this?
Just so you could sniff something out?
Not really.
You're…
You're very…
I liked you a lot.
Like you.
Even despite the…
Even more so actually.
It will get dark soon.
We go to bed early around here.
You never know who walks the night.
Mother!
Cut this out now.
That's enough, stop it.
Stop it, I said!
Stand up, stand properly and go to bed!
Go to your room.
Move.
Go home.
And stay out of this.
You won't get anything from it,
you'll just get in trouble.
Will you be here tomorrow? I…
Can I come over again?
I'll always be here.
So... I can, then?
I'll take it as a yes.
Should I wake him up then?
He'll sleep through supper like this.
Let me try maybe.
Come, let the lad sleep.
Dead tired, no doubt.
There, he wakes.
Come join us, sleepy head.
There's still plenty left.
Go on, lad, take my place then.
I've had my fill.
I thought you were dead.
Well, now.
And I thought you were.
Nah, I'm alive.
Oh really...
Come again?
You didn't just get here normally.
Ok, fine, so...
There was an accident,
the driver vanished,
and we're all ok.
It's either that, or the other way around.
I think it's the other way around.
Sony.
Sonya!
Why do you play along with the dead?
He is dead.
I've seen his grave at the cemetery just now.
I took a pic even.

So where are we then?
In the afterlife.
What afterlife?
It's something like a harbour
or like a detention centre.
Following along?
Not following.
That's all right.
No one does straight away.
Why am I even listening to you?
You talking bollocks.
Some kind of afterlife.
Anyway,
I've no time,
need to get back to Moscow,
I have urgent matters to settle.
My mom is waiting.
This is exactly what afterlife is for,
so you'd realise, finally, that you died.
People die, and don't even realise.
Fussing and fretting.
Keep wanting to settle some affairs, you see.
Cool off a bit, lad,
there is nowhere to rush.
Listen, dude, I'm alive.
I can feel everything.
My head is basically splitting, you understand?
Do you know how much cut off legs hurt?
Denis, don't be angry
and do not fear.
It's good you brought us here.
Don't you ever miss the dead?
Sonya, what's up with you?
I want to be with the living.
You don't even have a scarf, do ya?
Here.
Hold this.
Lord, have mercy on this servant of yours Ana,
for a sin of great grievance...
Gran Noora, let us go back.
The guys will be looking for us.
We'll get back before dark.
Why have I agreed to come at all?
Agreed you have.
Came all this way and there it is,
right here... go back, you say.
So he wasn't there. You've missed him.
All the more reason to come.
Gran Noora, what am I going to tell him?
Enough! Please!
Tell him, what you have come with.
Of your sister. Of your sorrow of heart.
Of what's left unsaid, didn't get time for.
Of missed funeral.
And what would he give me?
He's the one who took her!
— Don't talk like that.
— Why did he take her?
Can you explain to me, why? Why?
She just wanted to.. live, to love,
to live normal life, like an ordinary girl.
Not in this swelter of yours.
— Come now. Why do you resist so?
— Gran Noora, enough already.
- Why do you resist!
- I said, I won't go. There's no one there!
No one there at all! If there was,
he would never do something like that!
Why are you such a spoiled brat!
Bow before him. Ask.
I've prayed mine away, and you'll pray for yours.
I said, I won't go!
Where is everyone?
Everything ok?
I don't know.
I just woke up.
Not bad, man. You're a sleep champ.
Where were you?
Ah, here, around.
Where'd they get to?
I don't know.
They weren't here when I came.
Then I got kind of woozy,
as if I fainted or something.
So, this may seem a little weird...
Get this, I just had a dream:
So, there's this old man,
well, he's here, and it's all for real.
He sits at the table,
we're having dinner,
and he says, you guys are all dead.
Our whole gang.
That's baloney,
but yeah, creepy I guess.
I just thought, maybe,
that truck, you know...
What?
We were actually killed.
What is your name?
— Sophia.
— And your sister?
What's it matter?
Who shall I ask for?
There's no need to ask anything.
Pride is a mortal sin.
Everything is sin to you.
This, that.
Can't make a single step without sinning.
So what?
God and the devil don't shy away from mundane.
Read up the Old Testament.
First few chapters especially.
Goats, sheep, all these family quarrels.
Mundane as can be.
That's God playing checkers
with the devil for human souls.
Well if he does so...
punishes…
Just because... before marriage.
And they had true love.
Not some, whoring around, if you pardon me.
What happened?
Crash. On a motorbike.
No.
He does not punish like that.
The old man said, people
need time to realise they've died.
Maybe there is no old man at all.
Granny's just bonkers,
buried him and misses still.
Plenty of grannies like that in Russian villages.
We haven't even seen him once.
We've heard him.
Well, he's in that room there,
let's check it out, why not.
Let's go.
Can we come in?
I beg thee, Lord,
for the deceased servant of yours, Elisabeth.
You can say here.
Say what?
What you hadn't said to your sister in time.
I just didn't get to say goodbye.
Well then.
Forgive me.
Forgive me, for leaving you alone with him.
Lisa?
How much dew of the sky
In this river of acid
How long dog remains frightened
Or remains loyal
What is up with these scales
Both their panes seem endless
So my life became damaged
And there's naught to be done with it
I no longer belong. be alone.
all my memories are shattered
of the one I lament without comfort.
you no longer be long
and if you can discover your place
would you tell me the truth,
whom do you serve?
I no longer belong.
How long? I don't know
