Dzumas...

I used to have a whole

unit of men like him.

I gave them all their ways in life.

And then, imagine,

then grew to not like me.

They said I got on my high horse.

They wanted educated people.

- And they shunned Abakir.

- Everything'll be as before. You'll see.

Kalipa...

What was before, will never happen again.

Everything will be all right.

And in winter, we'll go to the city, okay?

Don't take offence at Kemel.

Let's all be friends.

He'll apologize, you'll see.

And you can teach him to drive a tractor.

You don't understand a damn

thing, you oaf. Go to sleep.

- You indulge him in everything.

- It's Sadabek's fault too.

He indulges him out of habit.

I'd make him knuckle under,

I'd take him down a peg or two.

And look what you're doing, Kalipa!

He'll leave you as he left

his previous family.

No. He loves me, don't you understand?

And we'll get married.

Get married?

And you believe him?

Do you think that's what he wants?

Leave me alone!

I want to know why

I can't work at high speed.

Because I don't like trickery!

- There would be a lot of hectares.

- So what?

The depth of ploughing is too low.

You're ploughing nothing but thorns.

So the depth is too low then? Do you think

otherwise wheat would grow in this dust?

- It would.

- Really?

It won't now. But it will

as soon as there's water here.

I don't see any water here!

It's all bullcrap!

Try and get it.

- There's nothing but sand around.

- Your way of thinking is erroneous.

So you're a lover of truth now?

Why don't you try ploughing

instead of arguing?

You were the first one to praise me

when I set records at high speed.

Don't you dare reproach

me for that, Abakir.

Yes, I did praise you.

That's because I believed in you.

They told me, "Be proud, Sadabek,

you're following Abakir Dzuraev himself."

So I followed you, and I saw

nothing but your back.

But now that you've been

pushed aside, I see a thing or two.

What do you see - steppe, weeds, thorns?

Yes, steppe. But as far as the eye can see.

As far as the eye can see? Have you

got those fine words from that milksop?

Why don't you start composing songs?

When will you understand,

our land is not just Anrakhai.

There will be no harvest here anyway.

But we can at least set the record.

Then others will follow our example.

They will emulate us.

People are like sheep.

A billy goat stands - the flock stand.

It runs - they run. And so will you!

Sheep follow a billy goat

even to the slaughterhouse.

Try leading Kemel. Will he follow?

Sadabek!

Help me to remove

the cauldron from the fire.

This Kemel again...

Well?

- Have nothing to say?

- Enough, two of you!

What idiot has put
