A fiddler on the roof.
:02:04
Sounds crazy, no?
:02:10
But here, in our little
village of Anatevka...
:02:14
you might say...
:02:16
every one of us
is a fiddler on the roof...
:02:21
trying to scratch out...
:02:24
a pleasant, simple tune...
:02:27
without breaking his neck.
:02:31
It isn't easy. You may ask...
:02:34
why do we stay up there...
:02:36
if it's so dangerous?
:02:39
Well, we stay because...
:02:42
Anatevka is our home.
:02:47
And how do we keep our balance?
:02:50
That I can tell you in one word:
:02:54
Tradition!
:02:58
Tradition
:03:23
Because of our traditions...
:03:26
we've kept our balance
for many, many years.
:03:36
Here in Anatevka...
:03:38
we have traditions
for everything:
:03:42
How to sleep, how to eat...
:03:47
how to work...
:03:51
how to wear clothes.
:03:55
For instance, we always
keep our heads covered...
