Cure: The Life of Another Page #3

Synopsis: Linda and Eta are best friends. They are 14 years old and live in Dubrovnik: Eta with her mother and grandmother, Linda with her father, who is a heart specialist at the local hospital and once lived in Switzerland, where Linda was born. The two girls are inseparable, although they often are drawn into fierce arguments. Together, they sneak into discos, fight over boys, and dream about an exciting future beyond their quaint hometown. One of their favorite places is the pine forest of Petka Hill on the outskirts of the city. On the first warm spring day, Eta and Linda retreat to a secret beach beneath the cliffs of Petka Hill. Once again they have an argument, this time with horrific consequences. Eta is left for dead on a rock by the sea, while Linda spends the night wandering aimlessly through the forest. However, the inhabitants of Dubrovnik don't want to know about the guilt and desolation plaguing Linda after her friend's death. The sunny, Mediterranean harbor town now seems sinist

No pain, no gain.

What marks the path to independence?

Wars.

It's hard to achieve.

What was Zrinski's goal?

He fought for Croatia's independence

from the Austrian Empire.

The Swiss were pioneers.

They got their independence

almost without wars.

That's cool.

Yes, but I didn't ask you.

Sweet, soft Linda.

It sounds so close.

It is.

The Bosnian border

is less than a mile away.

Look, there's the Hotel Imperial!

The refugees live there.

My girl-friend worked there.

She just wanted to help.

Sorting laundry with three women

when a grenade hit...

Killed all four of them.

That turns you on.

Really turns on the Swiss Miss,

doesn't it?

Stay on the trail!

There are mines everywhere.

I'm sorry.

Are you having fun without me?

You've got more guts since

you've taken my place.

The stories of war turn you on

and so does Ivo.

What is he up to?

I guess he didn't ask about me.

Do you miss lvo?

He's been hitting on you.

He has, hasn't he.

No.

I haven't seen him.

He hasn't told you the whole truth.

Be careful.

He killed people in the war.

Did you bring my diary?

I couldn't find it.

You promised to bring it.

Come on!

Or should I tell everyone

you killed me?

What are you doing here?

Your father will kill me

if he finds out.

Are you okay?

Come on, let's go inside.

Leave me alone.

Another busload of refugees

arrived this morning.

Show them their rooms and

explain our rules, ladies.

And of course, you too!

The same rules apply to the gentlemen.

Cleanliness, tidiness...

but with a pinch of salt.

Awful weather.

- Isn't she nice, the doctor's girl?

- She could be her daughter.

Marija!

Is that you?

The cold air is killing me.

We had sewing in school.

It looks easier than it is,

doesn't it?

Spin round, wooden doll,

spin round, pretty doll!

Help, save me!

I am gone,

killed by that nice girl.

We'll be done soon.

My angel.

Go.

Go back to where you came from.

Come from!

I just want Jos back.

Please, please don't hurt him.

Read carefully and stop squinting.

I've told you a hundred times, Eta.

Here.

That's what you love best.

You're my only granddaughter.

Turn around.

Oh, it's you.

Sleep well.

Answer, Mom.

Come on...

I know where I can find you,

in somebody's room.

H's the price I have to pay.

You're the big girl now.

Aren't you cold in that thin jacket?

Such a good girl!

I'm not a good girl.

I'm not.

I'm not a good girl!

Read it to me.

I don! believe ii.

Where did you see her?

Do you think

she's gone underground?

Come on!

What is she saying?

She would never do that.

She's heartbroken,

she has nothing to lose.

She has nothing to lose

but she's still got her pride.
