Hanele Page #5

So no-one wants to go?

I will.

Hanele afarov is registering.

Praise be to the name of the Lord.

Is anyone against?

No. Hanele afarov is chosen.

You'll be there all on your own.

Aren't you afraid?

That's the lot of my parents,

to grow old and end up alone.

Hanele! I know you're awake.

I have to see you, even if it costs

me my life.

This is the second night I've come.

I'll wait until morning.

It'll be dawn soon. If you don't

come, I'll do something drastic.

I don't yet know what,

but it'll be for good.

You're making me wait a long time.

I send you messages, you don't respond.

You're leaving soon, to somewhere

far away...

You kept Ostrava a secret!

Where did you get the money?

Quiet! You'll wake dad.

I got it out of my sister in Koice.

You're ashamed that my dad begs

on the streets!

- You betrayed me!

- No!

Let me go!

You betrayed me!

You betrayed me!

But I still love you.

I want you as my wife.

Promise me you'll come back.

That you'll marry me.

- Let me go!

- I can't live without you!

You're beautiful. I saw you.

Ouch!

Hanele...

Forgive me.

Please, don't be angry with me.

Don't be angry with me.

Forgive me.

No, lojme!

I'll find you!

Even if I have to go on foot.

The last Sabbath at home.

Dad smelled the spices

so that he wouldn't forget the

fragrance of the Promised Land.

Then he dabbed spirit on his brow

so that it would remain clear,

on his heart, so that it would be good,

and neck, so it would be sturdy.

Have a good week, father,

have a good week, mother.

- Gite woch.

- Gite woch.

Always remember you are

the daughter of Israel.

If you meet goys, no matter

how rich and powerful,

show them the respect they deserve,

greater than they deserve,

but don't forget that you are a royal

child. A daughter of the chosen nation.

Hanka!

- Haven't you had enough for today?

- Why? It's light work.

They'll leave without us, hurry up.

And don't be so shy.

You're always alone, like a nun.

Have you got a boy back home?

- Who's taken my bra?

- Here it is.

I get so irritated. Don't you?

No. It's too quiet at home in Polana.

- What's going on? Turn the lights on!

- It's after lights out.

You can talk to me.

I know you get letters.

- It's serious, isn't it?

- No.

They were talking about you

at the Critics' meeting.

They said you avoid the others,

that you're not sociable.

Thank you.

Wait!

Slovakia, or Sub-Carpathian Ukraine?

- Sub-Carpathian Ukraine.

- They still waiting for the Messiah?

- Yes.

- When is He coming?

- In the spring, the rabbi had a dream.

- Can I walk with you a while?

- I'm going to have a quick lunch.

- Can I lunch with you?

I go to the dairy for lunch.
