...So many stars.

Why are they twinkling?

My father told me that stars

are the dust of good people.

Than that blue one

must be my mother..

And the one near by

must be my father.

And those two are

Jalvatik and Belakhatik.

And a bit further away

that must be Kumush.

And what about you, Farukh?

Do you have someone up there?

My father and my mother.

And what about you, Khabib?

the same.. mother and father.

It means we don't have

anyone and anything.

And no home either.

How are we going

to live then?

Are we staying here

for winter too?

We had our own house

up in the mountains.

And a cow too.

Don't cry Gulcha, we'll

stay here only until winter.

And then we'll go to Khiva.

We'll start to work and

you will serve us dinner.

Of course I will.

I'll get to all the

household chores.

You've seen the angels of life,

it means you will be happy.

Gulcha, look

what we've got.

Now we'll see no trouble.

That will be a good meal.

Look, there's plenty of it.

Hold it firmly.

No.. Not like that..

firmly I said.

really big ones..

slippery one..

Gulcha, bring some salt.

Right away.

I need a rod..

like that..

give me one too..

there you go..

You see, that is the way it's done.

There you go.

I saw a man there.

He looked so scary and..

bad.

Don't go anywhere alone.

Only with us.

Yes, be careful,

Gulcha.

Don't hurry, Gulcha.

A lot of bones there.

Not bad.

Tastes good.

I'll sell this and buy Navai's verses

for Farukh and a dress for you.

You're so kind, Khabib.

Gulcha, if me and Farukh

would be drowning in a river,

who would you save... first?

You, of course.

And why so?

Because you saved me,

when I was drowning.

I'll save you and then Farukh.

Gulcha!

She will save me first.

It's so chilly.

Yes really chilly.

And dark around

Really dark.

But now, for some reason,

It's hot..

Hot.

Shaikh, Khayyam and Shaikh Jami,

Shaikh Nava'i and Shaikh Saadi

If you see this from your world,

help them.

You spoke so much of love,

and I guess they are in love.

They have no one except you,

help them, help.

Well?

They're here not far away.

Two of them. One left.

Is the girl there?

Yes, she is there, master.

Coward! Despicable man!

Shut up! I wanted to buy the girl

from you, offered the money first.

Now you've got yourself to

blame. She is mine anyway.

You're afraid of me? of a boy?

Tied me to a tree.

I am alone and you've got so many

men. Are you a man after that?

Let's go to the river

and fight there.

Hear me? Or is it so that the

highland customs mean nothing to you?

I'll kill you!

Hey, you!

Untie the boy!

Strange... I'm left completely alone.

What do I do?

Where do I go?
