Everything he does
is for other people.

:14:02
But if he did nothing wrong,
he wouldn't be in trouble.

:14:06
Oh, Papa. How can you say that?
:14:10
What wrongs did Joseph do?
:14:13
And Abraham? And Moses?
:14:15
And they had troubles.
:14:17
Yes, but...
:14:20
But why won't you tell me...
:14:24
where he is now,
this Joseph of yours?

:14:30
It is far, Papa.
:14:34
Terribly far.
:14:39
He is in a settlement in Siberia.
:14:46
And he asks you
to leave your father and mother...

:14:51
and join him in that frozen wasteland...
:14:55
and marry him there?
:14:57
No, Papa.
:14:58
He did not ask me to go.
:15:01
I want to go.
:15:03
I don't want him to be alone.
:15:05
I want to help him in his work.
:15:12
How can I hope to make you understand
:15:16
Why I do
:15:18
What I do
:15:21
Why I must travel
to a distant land

:15:26
Far from the home I love
:15:30
Once I was happily content to be
:15:35
As I was
:15:38
Where I was
:15:40
Close to the people
who are close to me

:15:45
Here in the home I love
:15:51
Who could see that a man would come
:15:54
Who would change the shape
of my dreams

:15:58
Helpless now
I stand with him
