how can I hear you?

What's the point of suffering?

But I'm not suffering!

I want to be with you.

Stop talking nonsense, please.

Christo...

You are everything to me in this life.

And how's that supposed to matter?

Rambo...

What's up? I haven't seen you for a while.

What's your problem?

Blow me.

Are you a fag or what?

What?

I said are you a fag?

An insecure fag.

We must strictly enforce

the laws of our country...

You too?

We will reach this goal with the police,

the gendarmerie and the city.

Unemployed gypsies will not be allowed

to leave their designated areas.

Caravans will be barred

from the streets of Sofia.

Let's have a walk.

Maraba, my love.

Go.

Where to?

Just drive. I'll tell you...

later.

Where do you want to...

Where are you from?

Take this ball.

For the girl from the Sun. A gift.

A ball.

For rolling.

Methadone treatment, but...

it doesn't really work.

I started drinking alcohol.

A couple of shots in the morning,

then at lunch

and after work.

And I want to drink even more.

How did I become an alcoholic?

I don't understand.

Where have you been? I was worried!

I went out for a walk.

Didn't your father tell you not to go out?

Ltso...

What again?

I'm so happy to see you.

Last night I realized

we could be just friends...

and share our secrets.

Let's go and see a movie.

There you are.

Thanks.

I'm gonna see the psychiatrist.

All right.

There's nobody waiting.

Please, don't mix up the bottles.

Don't worry.

I guess...

I left my soul in the fridge.

Yes, you can have that feeling.

But I think that, with time,

we can overcome this.

Slowly, but surely.

I almost want to smile!

I hope so.

I still believe we can make it.

It may take a little while.

I'm so nervous.

Yes, I can sense that.

Quickly, slowly, forward, backward,

upward, downward...

Nervous all over.

Sounds like you have nothing to hold on to.

I feel like I've reached...

the bottom.

Like I'm flat on my back.

Smashed.

And you have no strength

to pick yourself up.

I have the strength,

just nothing to hold on to.

I don't need a cane.

I need some kind of a truth to believe in.

Exactly.

I don't remember if we discussed this...

A study shows

that among the best scientists,

Yes, I know.

At the end of his life, Einstein

proved the existence of God.

Yes, my boy.

Isaac Newton explained

his law of energy at the Sorbonne.

He said:
"I've brought you a new law,

"a law of energy.

"It is just transformed."

Scientists asked him:

"How did you discover this?"

And he said:
"Believe it or not,

"God wrote me the answer

in red letters on the wall.

"And the letters were on fire."

So we should never

lose faith and keep hoping.
