Goodbye, Mr. Shabaty.

Nothing bad happened. Don't

despair Miss Bat-Sheva.

The government does what it

can, good people help.

But Mr. Shabaty, I came to

help you. Neuman, Neuman.

You should be well,

Miss Bat-Sheva.

If you troubles in your heart,

I' m always here for you.

You never disturb me.

What a sociological girl that is.

Forestry!

Next! -Yes. -Name?

Miki Raveh.

T rade? -Dental Technician.

-Forestry.

Is that why I studied

for six years?

I don't care, I also studied

and worked on the roads.

Forestry. Next.

Name? -Kalman Binstock.

Work? -Administration.

-Forestry. -Excuse me.

Nothing. Your like all the other

new people here. Next!

It's your turn Dad. -I don't

want to. I' m scared of him.

Dad, it's for our new home.

Alright, but stay with me,

I won't go alone.

We' re here Dad. -Next!

Salleh Shabaty. -Trade?

Shoemaker. -Forestry.

Thank you very much.

That is excellent, forestry.

No forestry. When I arrived,

I took any work I was given.

I ate grass and slept in the

fields, my friend.

But I want. -I don't care what

you want. Forestry. -Forestry.

These new immigrants are

poor human material.

Right, it's very simple.

As you saw, I dug a hole

about 30 cms deep.

This is the plant, shake and

remove thus, you see?

Put it in the hole, and cover.

Now, press it down and

dig a saucer around it

Smile a little, can't you!

And with that, lets go to work.

Are there any questions?

Yes, what's this for?

We are turning this place

into a forest!

God makes forests.

-Yes, but we help him.

He doesn't need help.

-Comrade, enough. To work.

Is that enough? -Comrade,

no time for frivolity now.

Very nice. -So perhaps

you' II do some now?

Yes, please, this has

to be shaken.

It's all wild. It doesn't want

to be a forest.

Hold it please.

-What are you doing?

You' re hitting it like a

shoemaker. -That's true.

The old man doesn't like

working, does he? -What?

He'd run away if he could.

Do you know him?

Yes. He's my father.

Yes, my Dad also...

So, 30 cms as we said,

and cover the plant.

Please Sir, what is that for?

I' m preparing a sign for the

man who gave the money

for this forest, my friend.

Here's the happy donor.

How do you do?

-How do you do?

Mr. And Mrs. Birnbaum,

this is your forest.

After me please. -Thank you.

No, no...

Go, go on.

What's up?

What do you with me, Sir?

What's going on?

He won't let me go past him.

Simon! -I' m coming.

Where is that driver?

I love working in the garden.

You know, my dream is a

small house and garden.

I' m also learning

to be a cantor.

Comrade, they' re hooting at

you. -I' m not deaf. I know

One day, I' II show you how

I work in my garden.
