The Wind Blows Round Page #4

Father Franco went there

to bless the house.

- But they wouldn't let him.

- Are they atheists?

Maybe they had no money

for a donation.

- They can't go broke over a donation.

- Some holy water might do them good,

considering all that dirt out front.

They leave their little girl

in front of the stall,

with all that dung around!

- Everything okay, Father?

- Yes.

- How about some Pastis?

- I'd love some.

But let's bless the house first.

"May the Lord bless this house

and let us understand it,

love it and serve it.

Let us have its peace...

Where's Philippe?

Out in the pasture.

He asked me to take him

to get some limestone.

I'll go find him.

Sorry.

Bye.

- Looking for deer?

- Yes.

- Seen the French guy?

- No.

People have to protect

their own culture to survive

and speak their own language.

Languages prove people

have lived in peace for centuries.

No.

Culture comes from living together.

Day after day.

When I realize that people

have lived here for 900 years

and spoken the Oc language,

and still do,

from here to the ocean

they've spoken the same language

for hundreds of years...

I get so emotional!

What's left of

Occitanian culture?

Nostalgia.

If you're humble,

they say you have no balls.

Imagine

if today's society took notice

of all the people who wake up

unsatisfied in the morning.

To truly rebel you have to change.

Do what you really want to do.

But you're considered crazy

if you break society's standards.

Then I'm crazy

and glad to be!

What's the point of living?

If you're not happy?

You're afraid.

Come on.

I can tell you're afraid.

I used to be too.

Everyone has the same fear.

Not being good enough for life

or what they want to do.

You have to enjoy life.

Congratulations,

you have a beautiful girl.

Congratulations.

Next time it will be a boy.

I have to go back to Turin,

have a nice party.

- Finally a little life around here.

- The first of many celebrations.

- Well?

- I'm here.

Are you really going

to live with Philippe?

I'm helping him out, he's all alone.

Everyone wants to leave this place

but he wants to stay.

He only did what he wanted.

Your father can't stand him.

I've had it up to here

with what my father

and everyone else says...

What they want me to do.

Everyone tells me what to do.

I can't stand anyone anymore.

This was inhabited by Jews,

Muslims, Heretics and Catholics.

They all lived together.

At one point they almost

killed off the Oc culture.

You know why?

They were tolerant.

I don't like the word "tolerant".

If you have to tolerate someone,

it means you there's no equality.

I believe...

that all violence

stems from sexual repression.
