:09:02
I'm afraid, Iva.
:09:06
Rejoicing about the child
is best against fear.
:09:10
I didn't want this baby.
:09:14
But if I'd spoke of abortion,
they'd have shot me.
:09:19
-And who could I have told?
-What's wrong with having a child?
:09:24
I'm used to it now.
:09:28
It's inside me, growing,
it talks to me.
:09:33
Maybe I've even begun to love it.
I've even started being afraid for it.
:09:39
I often dream...that we're retreating.
Our soldiers are fleeing,
:09:45
I stay behind and then
I wake up covered in sweat
:09:48
kneeling on the bed, but
not knowing how to pray.
:09:53
Oh, God, we know nothing
about each other.
:09:57
Nobody ever taught me.
Nobody prayed in my house.
:10:03
Tell me about your parents.
:10:06
Mom was a village teacher,
a committed atheist...
:10:09
-...and my dad was a gendarme.
-A gendarme?!
:10:15
-I was arrested by the gendarmes!
-They were just doing their jobs.
:10:19
-You were a Communist and...
-Me? A Communist?!
:10:22
I joined the Party when
I joined the Partisans,
:10:25
forced by the gendarmes!
:10:28
Is he still alive?
:10:32
No, he's not.
:10:34
After Yugoslavia's capitulation,
:10:38
the farmers came to us,
our neighbors,
:10:41
and beat him to death
before our very eyes.
:10:51
OK, tell me how your mother
came to marry a gendarme.
:10:57
She was a village teacher. Who
else could a village teacher marry.
