LANDSCAPE IN THE MIS a film by
Theo Angelopoulos
Go to sleep!
When are we going away?
Go to sleep!
Will you tell
me the story?
Again?
In the beginning
was the darkness...
and then there
was light.
And the light was divided
from the darkness...
and the earth
from the sea...
and the rivers,
the lakes...
and the mountains
were made.
And then the flowers
and the trees...
the animals...
the birds...
It's Mummy!
This story will
never finish.
stopping us all the time.
Hullo Seagull!
Seagull!
Hullo, Seagull!
It's going to rain
and my feathers
will get wet.
I'm going away.
Where are you going?
To Germany.
Every day you go away
to Germany.
Alexander, we're late!
Goodbye!
What's Germany like?
In three minutes
Express 290
will be leaving
Come on!
We made it!
We made it!
"Dear father,
We are writing because
we have decided to find you.
We have never seen you
and we miss you.
We talk about you
all the time.
Mummy will be upset
that we've gone.
Deep down inside we love
her, don't think we don't...
but she doesn't
understand anything...
We don't know what
you look like...
Alexander says all sorts
of things...
We miss you so much.
Sometimes on my way home
from school...
I think I hear footsteps
behind me...
your footsteps...
and when I turn to look...
there is no one.
Then I feel very lonely.
We don't want to be
a burden to you...
we just want
to get to know you...
and then we'll go away
again.
If you send us a reply...
do it with the sound
of the train...
tatan... tatan...
tatan... tatan...
here I am...
I am waiting for you..."
Tickets please!
Hey, tickets!
Have you got tickets?
I don't know what
you're going to do...
just sort things out.
Sit down.
Where are you coming from?
Orchomenos?
Clear the track for the 290.
Announcing the arrival
of express 290.
Yes, yes, yes.
At least tell me
where you're going.
Cat got your tongues.
Hell, I'm not going to do
the cops' work for them.
We're going to our uncle.
So you've decided to speak.
Good girl!
Well?
How did you get here?
And is that Alexander?
What's up?
They were found on the
express for Germany...
without tickets
They said they were
coming to find you...
Come here, come here
and tell me what's going on.
Fine then,
everything's settled...
you don't need me any more.
Just a moment!
Look here...
I can't get involved.
I'm not getting involved.
Aren't you their uncle?
Yes... I am their mother's
brother...
but we've been out
of touch for years.
I can't take the
responsibility.
The whole thing's
my sister's fault.
Did she have to tell them that
their father is in Germany?
What father?
What Germany?
She doesn't know
There is no father...
there is no Germany.
The whole
thing's a big lie.
And for what reason?
She didn't want to tell
them they're illegitimate.
And this is the result!
But why Germany?
How should I know?
So that they have something
to dream about.
Look here... don't get me
involved in this.
Notify their mother.
You're lying!
You're lying!
Our father is in Germany!
You're lying!
Our father is in Germany!
You're lying!
Wait here!
It's snowing!
It's snowing!
It's snowing!
It's snowing!
He slipped the rope
round his neck...
He slipped the rope
round his neck...
He slipped the rope
round his neck...
"Dear father,
How were we able to wait
so long?
We've been travelling like
a leaf blowing in the wind.
What a strange world!
Suitcases... freezing railway
stations...
words and gestures
we don't understand...
and the night
which scares us!
But we are happy.
We are moving on."
Damn!
He's dying.
He's dead.
Hello there!
What are you doing
in this wilderness?
The town's still
a long way off.
There's lots of room
back there.
I don't eat children.
You haven't told me
where you're going.
Far away.
Okay, I'll drop you off
in town.
They're stage costumes.
And that one there's mine.
What do you do?
I make people laugh...
and cry.
D'you know how difficult
that is?
What d'you play?
My part.
Seven knocks on the stage...
then three...
and the curtain goes up...
the overture...
and I enter.
"The day dawned and Pleiades
shone in the sky."
What's Pleiades?
It is the morning star...
the dawn star...
which goes out
just before daybreak.
Let her rest, you must have
walked a long way.
Want to see something?
Come on!
- D'you like it?
- Is it yours?
There they are!
They're coming!
What happened?
Nothing... we couldn't get
theatre... Do something!
Orestes, grandfather will die
if we don't find a theatre.
Do something!
Okay,
I'll go to the Pantheon.
I'll meet you back here,
okay?
Did you see them?
They're sad.
Times have changed.
Everything's changed.
And ravaged by time
they wander stubbornly...
And ravaged by time they wander
stubbornly all over Greece...
all over Greece always
performing the same play.
I've got something to do.
Let her sleep...
I'll be back.
Is your name Orestes?
A sandwich please...
D'you have money?
No, but I'm hungry.
Yes, you're hungry, but you
known to eat you need money!
Even I pay when I'm hungry.
Yes, but I don't have any
money and I'm hungry.
I understand.
Listen, if you want to earn
money for your food...
you can clear all the
tables you see in here...
you'll work a little and
then you'll eat. Agreed?
All of them?
Clear them up.
Hey, what's going on here?
Seagull!
Seagull!
Seagull!
Where have you been?
He went by and
didn't see me.
Where have you been
all this time?
See... I earned it for you...
I worked.
You're funny kids,
you know that?
It's as if you don't care
about time going by...
and yet I know that you
are in a hurry to leave.
It's as if
you're going nowhere...
and yet you're going
somewhere.
You do know where
you're going, don't you?
You're funny too.
Me?
I'm a snail slithering
away into nothingness...
I don't know
where I'm going.
Once I thought I knew.
Where am I going?
The only thing I know
is that in a few days...
I'll be going into the army...
to do my military service.
What is it?
Can't see anything.
Look carefully.
Nothing.
Can't you see?
Behind the mist...
in the distance...
can't you see a tree?
No.
Me neither.
I was kidding.
Will you give it to me?
It's yours.
Where are we?
Good morning!
In the meantime the Turks
took Afion Karahisar...
it was in August of l922.
After the Germans left...
in the autumn of l944...
