with irregular timetables.
:01:05
There are more hills here -
:01:08
than anywhere else
in the world!

:01:12
Loose-running kids and dogs -
:01:14
make it impossible
to move in the streets.

:01:16
Like lepers we hide
in the back alleys.

:01:21
We are humiliated
and spat on -

:01:25
as if we weren't free members
of a proud nation.

:01:30
Besides, an evil old woman
kicked me in shin once -

:01:34
only because I opened my
mouth in the wrong place.

:01:39
I'm not a dog.
:01:42
I know that you can also -
:01:45
respect yourselves slightly,
if necessary.

:01:48
That is why we are here
today: no more crying -

:01:52
it's time to leave.
The decision is not easy.

:01:57
Many of us have strong
emotional ties here.

:02:02
Many must sacrifice
their childhood -

:02:05
their memories
and their families.

:02:08
"The branch of a rotten tree must
seek a healthier trunk."

:02:14
We have all heard our
grandparents and our parents -

:02:18
talk of Eira, a place on
the other side of the city.

:02:23
The streets are wide and the air
is smooth and fresh there.

:02:28
That is our destination tonight.
:02:32
Before we move on to
practical matters -

:02:35
I want to be certain that
everyone realises -

:02:38
the dangers and
responsibilities of our journey.

:02:42
The floor is yours, Frank.
- Thank you, Frank.

:02:45
I have organised us transport
to the extreme centre of the city.

:02:49
After that it's every
man for himself.

:02:52
Some will take the southern,
others the northern route -

:02:56
some will attempt a break
straight through the lines.
