:59:02
Is your papa up yet?
:59:04
No, Mama.
:59:05
Enough lessons!
:59:07
Back to the house,
there's work to be done!
:59:09
Go on, children.
:59:11
Another story tomorrow.
:59:18
That was a very interesting lesson,
Perchik.
:59:21
Do you think so?
:59:23
Mmm.
:59:25
Although I don't know if the rabbi
would agree with your interpretation.
:59:30
Neither, I suppose, would the rabbi's son.
:59:34
My little sisters talk too much.
:59:36
And what do you know about him,
except that he is the rabbi's son?
:59:40
At least I know this.
:59:42
He has no strange ideas
about turning the world upside down.
:59:45
Good day, Perchik.
:59:47
You have wit, even some intelligence!
:59:50
Thank you.
:59:51
Perhaps, but what good is your brain?
:59:53
Without curiosity, it is a rusty tool!
:59:56
Good day, Hodel!
:59:57
We have an old custom here!
:59:59
A boy talks respectfully to a girl.
1:00:02
But that is too traditional
for an advanced thinker like you.
1:00:05
Our traditions! Nothing must change.
1:00:08
Everything is perfect as it is!
1:00:10
We like our ways.
1:00:11
Our ways are changing in other places.
1:00:13
In the city,
boys and girls can be affectionate
1:00:16
without a matchmaker's permission?
1:00:19
They hold hands together.
1:00:21
They even dance together.
1:00:23
New dances... like this!
1:00:31
I learned it in Kiev.
1:00:36
Do you like it?
1:00:38
It's... it's very nice.
1:00:56
There.
1:00:59
We've just changed an old custom.
