An unexpected and shocking picture we saw in the school.
:09:08
Who could have made this absurd engraving?
:09:15
We opened at random a book of maxims we found on a table.
:09:18
One of the best students
writes on a slate...

:09:21
...one of the book's maxims.
:09:30
It's the same the world over: "Respect other people's property!"
:09:47
In this relatively fertile valley...
:09:49
...there are some walnut, cherry and olive trees.
:09:54
This is the village of Martilandran.
:09:56
The shapes between the trees,
resembling the shell of some mythical animal...

:10:00
...are just the roof tiles of the village.
:10:07
Entering the village, we are greeted by a chorus of coughing.
:10:11
Most of the villagers are ill.
:10:16
It's a scene of devastating misery.
:10:28
The principle disease here is goitre.
:10:41
Look at this woman with her goitre:
:10:43
She's only 32 years old.
:10:52
We visit the village in the company of the mayor.
:10:55
On an empty street we see a girl.
:10:58
We ask the mayor what's wrong with her.
