Son of Sofia Page #2

- No, he's Russian.

- No way!

- Russia, Ukraine, same difference!

What's your name?

Misha.

Michael!

I'm Victor.

Little Michael doesn't speak

any Greek yet, does he?

He will soon.

I'm giving him intensive lessons.

Is there a doctor in the house?

Yes, right here!

Break a leg!

Are you married?

Do you have a pen?

King, homeland, religion, and family:

These are the cornerstones

of the National Youth Organization.

Call me, if you need to!

Let's do one more take!

Ready and... action!

Misha hasn't fallen asleep yet.

He's going to hear us.

Aren't you doing mine?

You're just a kid.

No one will notice

if your clothes are creased.

I want to go with you.

You can't.

You'll stay home with Mr. Nikos.

I don't want to live here anymore.

We talked about this before.

Enough already!

You're giving me a headache!

It's impolite to speak a language

I don't understand.

We have to stay a while.

Just a minute!

I'll be late for work.

He longed to fill his stomach

with the pods the pigs were eating,

but no one gave him any.

That's when the prodigal son said,

"I'll go back to my father."

The father called his servants and said,

"Bring me the fattened calf!"

"This son of mine was dead

and is alive again."

"He was lost and is found."

Five Olympic Rings.

Five merging continents celebrating

the return of the Olympic Games

to their country of origin.

Stop snacking.

We're going to sit down to dinner soon.

Can't you see

you've been putting on weight?

Why did you stop eating?

I'm not hungry anymore.

How long is this going to last?

About three hours.

When are we going to watch Poor Vera?

We're not. Not today.

Nine-year-old Michael

in his paper boat...

Sturdy, like little old Greece,

no bigger than a dot on the map...

His name is Michael, just like you!

Is Mr. Nikos an actor?

No.

What did he do before?

He used to be a headmaster.

He also had a TV show for kids.

Stop speaking that language

or he'll never learn Greek.

Everything I taught him

will go down the drain.

Where's your wedding ring?

I left it at work.

You left it at work?

Yes.

What about his wife?

She was a housewife.

No kids?

None.

- How come?

- I don't know. Why all the questions?

How old is he?

68... 69...

Grandpa is 62.

Young man,

there are rules in this house.

Since you don't seem to get it,

someone has to spell it out for you.

And if your mother won't, then I will!

Misha, open up!

What's going on?

Please open the door!

How about some pelmeni?

Stop speaking that language!

I have all the ingredients.

We're in Greece! Speak Greek!

Or must I learn Russian?

Mr. Nikos is a good man.

How about oladushki?

Sofia, this is infuriating!
