WARSAW, JANUARY 1942,
400,000 JEWS FROM ALL OF POLAND
THEY HAVE BEEN CONFINED BY THE NAZIS FOR MORE THAN A YEAR
IN A NARROW GHETTO IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CITY,
NOBODY CAN ENTER OR LEAVE YOUR PERIMETER,
OUTSIDE THE WALL, LIFE GOES ON,
INSIDE, ITS INHABITANTS DIE OF DISEASE, HUNGER, COLD,
OR TRY TO REMEMBER THAT THEY ARE STILL ALIVE,
Sorry,
Wait! For!
-To the Fémina theater, quickly, -Two slotti,
-Re crazy? Eighty groszy, -One and a half złoty,
-Eighty groszy, - A zloti,
don't entertain me I'm late, Come on! Come on!
Hey! Do you have gloves?
Do you have gloves?
Wait, Stop,
-You're kidding? We have to leave this place, -Really, Stop or jump,
Runs!
They don't look for women,
is that skin?
It looks like skin,
I'm cold,
You should deliver it,
Someone will report you, they will kill you,
give it to me
I will deliver it for you,
If they kill me, I'll stop being cold,
Back, stand still!
Silence,
You're crazy?
Shut up and don't move, okay?
I don't have anything, I don't have anything,
I'm leaving,
Hide yourselves,
Hide, everyone!
Wherever you are, please hide!
Control?
Control,
Shit,
Dear friend, don't you find out? Be so kind, Go Go,
Come here,
She has fallen, He already knows what to do,
And you, please,
You,
And you,
Funny, right?
Very funny,
Yes,,,
Smile, at least,
That's better,
Let's see those smiles,
I want to see a smile,
Funny?
Yes, Beautiful smile,
We almost have it,
In agreement,
Listen to this:
Yossel goes to the rabbi and says, "Rabbi, I have a problem:
I like two women, mine and another,
Can I be with both at the same time?
The rabbi replies: "No," "Thank you, Rabbi, Very wise,"
After a few days, Yossel returns to the synagogue, very angry:
"Rabbi, I asked his advice and his answer was clear,
but I just found out that he lives with two women,
How does he explain it?"
To which the old man replies: "I didn't ask the rabbi,"
Enough, The show is over,
I know another,
What is the eleventh commandment?
-Which? -You will choose your grandparents carefully,
I should have,
You're late, Stefcia, Where were you?
Better not tell you, one of the two could work for the Gestapo,
Teaching class, huh?
They give me soup,
I wouldn't get fond of those kids, -Give me soup!
-You're late, -There's been a hunt, And a check,
You at least came, Patryk hasn't arrived yet,
Where is the?
Nobody knows,
He's all sold, girls,
It is good that there is no cinema,
-I like the cinema, -"In spring, yes, in spring,,,"
Not now Sarah,
Put powder on your hands, dear,
Sarah, you should read this,
Nyusia,,,
I don't want to see this around here,
Change your boyfriend, it doesn't suit you, You'll get us in trouble,
-It's time to reveal the truth, -The truth is very clear,
-You are crazy! -No, you're crazy,
Now they are used for something,
Okay,,, Two minutes to start, ladies,
Today they will take their hands out of their coats and clap their hands, Let's go there!
Great, Jozek has broken something again,
-Are you drunk? -You will have bad breath when we kiss,
-Edmund also has bad breath, -Is not true!
It seems that love not only blinds,
Eating improves breath, if I remember correctly,
What? What are we laughing at?
Of you, Edmund, and of love,
Ah, love is my specialty, Ada,
"My generosity is immense as the sea, my love, so deep;
the more I give you, the more I have, since both are infinite",
Voucher, To begin with, that phrase is from Juliet,
"Besides, that's the wrong Juliet," -That was going to say,
I don't know what she would be thinking about,
"My generosity is immense as the sea, my love, so deep;
the more I give you, the more
I have, since both are infinite",
You're so silly,
How are you Sarah?
-You have a fever? -No,
-Don't even think about coughing on stage, Don't talk to my sister like that,
She goes back to the dressing room and sit by the stove,
-Romeo and Juliet were idiots, -Sorry?
Who wants to die for love?
We have to go out,
Wait, You have talc on your face,
Go!
If the girl kills the play, she'll hear me,
Enough, You are about to play a happy couple,
God! Where is Patryk?
-Who will raise the curtain? -Jozek,
We won't finish before curfew,
I got this,
-With those hands? -With the feet surely not,
LOVE IN ITS PLACE
Today they will applaud, I promise you,
Its too cold,
We'll see,
Edmund!
-You're hanging Grandma upside down, -It looks better that way,
Give me the hammer, come on,
We can put your grandmother behind the Chopin
bust, She will like having a man around,
-That's not Chopin, it's Julius Caesar, -After a night out,
Patryk has already arrived,
Where was he?
And what do I know?
Are you driving nails into the wall?
Better than windows, dear landlady,
-None of that, or the walls will fall, -They will fall anyway,
What do I do with Grandma?
Ada, we can leave it under the bed,
And use it as a tray when we have views,
-Edmund! -Ada!
-No visits, -How?
No visits!
You may not fear typhus, or you may be vaccinated,
I can't afford it,
-You play the violin? -I use it to catch rats,
Of course I touch it,
In that case, I must say at the outset
that such things are not allowed here,
I already have a character like that,
That guy from the Fémina theater who lives next
door and spends the day banging on the piano,
If only she played some tune,,, But no,
Do you see it? Pure cacophony,
Before there were two whole families and they made less noise,
I only play beautiful melodies,
Do you have a favourite? I'll touch it,
We boil water only once a day,
Do not do the laundry or you will wet the floor,
Do not use the service for more than two minutes or throw paper inside, or it will get stuck,
You better not use paper,
They love what you've written,
And don't break the Napoleon, it belonged to my husband,
It is Chopin, without a doubt,
-We need to talk, -He touches us now,
Now!
We're leaving the ghetto,
-What? -We go, You and me, tonight,
How you and me? And Edmund?
I have no money for him,
I have bribed two SS, They won't shoot us,
-Because they are from the SS, -We will go to my village, I know people,
- Some farmer will hide us, -I'm with Edmund, Patryk,
I do not want to get married with you,
I'm just trying to save your life,
-Where did you get the money? -Do not ask,
Tonight,
What are you doing?
He touches you,
Tonight, after the show,
As a young man he also had more than one suitor,
I married the man who gave me his grandmother's ring,
Bad selection,
Mundy!
Did you put the note on the door?
Sure, with our name and "ring five times,"
Five times?
Of course, I've already learned it,
One ring, Finkelstein, Two, the Goldbergs, Three, the pianist,
Four, the dentist, what's-his-name, I can't stand them,
Five, us,
oh,,,
One,,,
Two,,,
-Three, -It's the pianist,
How good we are going to be in our little room,
No matter
If it's too big or too small,,,
,,,if you don't have outside views,
It couldn't be more pleasant, such a
comfortable home with everything you need,
just for us, for me and for you, For you and for me,
-It doesn't matter what, -It doesn't matter what,
-Laundry in the lobby, -A hat on the wall,
Soup, bowl, broom,
-There's plenty of room, -A place to rest,
I am so happy that I could cry,
No matter,,,
I'm not leaving Edmund,
,,,if he doesn't have a view to the outside,
It couldn't be more pleasant, such a
comfortable home with everything you need,,,
Then you will die here,
Oh!
Excuse me, please,
-I have been assigned this room, -But we live here,
I'm so sorry, If he had known, he would not have accepted it,
Neither do we accept it,
They won't give me another, I spent all the money on bribes,
We can't throw him out, he'll freeze, or they'll
beat him to death, or the other way around,
-A bachelor doesn't need a lot of space, -As if there was so much,
Patryk, can you hold the box for me, please?!
Inside are the dominoes, the iron, the hat and the cactus,
Are you sure you're not too? -Single?
Stefcia?
- Mundy! What are you doing here? -I live here,
Ada, this is Stefcia, We performed together at the Greenspan,
She is an amazing singer,
-I'm sure, Nice to meet you, -The pleasure is mine,
- Do you also live here? -Also?
Didn't you talk to the housing commission?
-I was going to do it tomorrow, -Tomorrow, tomorrow, never today,,,
That's what wise people say, Wisdom is something else!
Didn't find a free room?
The commission thought this one was,
Officials who think, what a contradiction,
-It's my husband's fault, -No, he's from mine,
Why would I want one if I do it all myself?
Very sure!
-When did you get married? -This morning,
-And you? -Yesterday,
-Twice as long! -Yes,
-Congratulations, -Can I suggest something, Stefcia?
-I was going to do the same, -The four of us can live here,
-That's what I was going to suggest, - Let's talk to the landlady,
Let's go!
What's wrong with you?
-I'm fine thanks, -You got lost twice!
-Concentrate, -I do not,,,
I'm being serious,
A happy woman would be the eighth wonder of the world,
Ada,,,
What?
What would you do to get out of the ghetto?
It's easy, if you don't care about being dead,
What would you be willing to do?
Anything,
And you?
Come on, girls, we're not on vacation,
The landlady agrees, We will divide the room in two,
-Excellent, -But you will pay the same as them,
-But it's only one room, -You don't play the violin, do you?
No, I work at the Jewish Council,
In that case, you pay in advance,
-Excuse me, the toilet doesn't work, I told you not to use it,
Here we will be happy,
-We just need another bed, -Oh!
-Edmund! -Ada!
-My God, what are you doing? I hope your God hears more than mine,
-You're stepping on the quilt! -I take it off?
-There's a cigarette butt on the floor! -How? I put it under the bed,
-Edmund! -Ada!
I'll put her on our side,
So there will be no more fights,
Do you know what?
We should be on our honeymoon, not locked up, sharing a room,,,
No sink,
Even if we had money, they wouldn't let us use the tram,
The ghetto is no place for romance,
We Jews have the horse carriage, It doesn't go far, but it's slow,
Is right!
Let's go honeymoon!
We went up on Solna street,
It's crowded and smells bad,
You have to wait for the horse to decide to stop to drink,
After an hour of whistles, shouts and potholes
everyone's hearts skip a beat when the bus does,,,
Everyone shakes,
everyone wakes up,
Hold on and don't talk, it
would be better to go on foot,
Run, little horse, don't stop, He overtakes the carts,
Come on, there's no big deal,
A round of applause for the bus!
And now, the return trip,
We went up on Panska Street,
it smells even worse,
After a technical stop,
the engine slows down,
After an hour of whistling, yelling, squeezing, fighting
and shoving, the hearts of the impatient ones skip a beat,
And there are so many that the Jewish police begin to split their heads,
I haven't enjoyed a trip so much in a long time!
What are you up to, Edmund?!
-And if there are informers in the public? -And that?
The Germans can close the theater,
They don't care if we laugh at collaborators,
Patryk, tell him not to change the text, please,
Leave it alone,
Leave it alone?
Leave it alone,
Have you seen the faces of the police?
They haven't seen it coming, Have you seen the public?
I have broken them!
It is necessary to close the act better, you need another sentence,
They were about to applaud!
-Edmund! -Stefcia!
Patryk wants to elope,
Tonight,
After the function,
Tonight?
-He bribed someone, -To who?
He can't,,, With what money?
He wants me to go with him,
What?
-Since when do you know? I told him I'll stay with you,
-Do you want to go? -Nope!
-Would you like to stay here? -I do not want to be with you,
-Do you want me to go? -No,
I want,,,
I do not know what I want,
-Edmund, -Later, Later,
Could you go slower?
Get out of here,
Is it smart to drink before you go out, Jozek?
Rather wise,
You want?
It's true,
It's okay?
-It's gonna take a while, -Niusia,,,
He stops playing resistance,
I'm serious, not all of us want to die,
,,,can't find a good man,
Stand straight and steady,
Don't think about the public,
sing for you
Proof,,,
not much left
for winter, and
the year will end,
And who knows, who knows,
if May will never return,
Perfect,
Stefcia,,,
Yes?
Why don't you marry Edmund?
We are not allowed to marry,
-Nobody can, -Some do,
How do you know?
Irena,
There are people who do things, yes,
Without anyone knowing, But your brother and I don't need it,
Stefcia?
What?
You were with Patryk before, right?
Irena too?
Whore Irena,,,
Yes,
I was with Patrick,
Long ago,
Before,
did you love him
He took care of me when my father was killed,
-He was by my side, Do you think I'll find someone like that?
Like Patrick?
I know of someone who should have been on stage for two minutes,
Fuck!
Shit!
Shit! Shit!
-You're late, -Do not tell me,
They are improvising, It's like seeing a shipwreck,
Ada will rip my head off,
Stefcia,,, Stefcia! If you were here,,,
-I can help? -I don't know where Stefcia,,,
,,,she has left the,,,
,,,potty,
There are things that one must do for oneself,
What if you try in the bathroom?
I have just been, He is busy,
But I'll try again,
We've been the same for two months, Edmund,
I clean, you dirty,
I clean, you dirty again,
Where is your second sock?
I don't even know where the first one is,
Do you think you are like this all the time?
Do you think it makes me happy to stay? What do I want to die here?
Damn! Still busy!
Does anyone know where Stefcia is?
That girl disappears as soon as you turn around,
Do not touch that!
Calm down, Edmund,,,
,,,Dear,
I think I'll try again,
-If she doesn't let you go, maybe,,, -Maybe what?
Maybe I don't really love you,
And why are you so sure that she won't leave me?
Occupied! Occupied! Occupied!
If the ghetto burned down, you'd sweep up the ashes, Ada,
Did you know? You're right, Leave,
"Nobody standing still in this room?" -I need fresh air!
I gotta leave too!
It is very fast to be official,
- Is it that nobody cares about this work? -Rest, You leave after the duet,
Wake up, Patrick, That train left a long time ago,
Write the next song for someone who cares about you,
Or else me,,,
Last night I dreamed of you,
With me?
It was a strange dream,
We were both in a cart, down an alley,
Everything was dark,
It was scary,
Then, behind us, a light appeared, like a locomotive,
It was chasing us at full speed, as if it
wanted to swallow us up and make us disappear,
And I remember thinking,,,
,,,which would be curfew, and,,,
,,,we shouldn't be out,
Suddenly, I was very scared,
And the locomotive was accelerating,
His light blinded me,
-I wanted to scream and scream, but then,,, -So?
I would have been scared to death if you hadn't been there,
Do you remember her?
He sang it every night,
I remember everything,
All?
The pretty parts,
Everything I've dreamed
of in life is useless if in it,,,
,,,you are not,
Everything I've ever achieved
in life is barren when I'm not,,,
,,,by your side,
All I've longed to say to you fades away
if you do not mind,
All that I have conquered is meaningless
if you're not there
I don't need the sun any closer,
I don't long for the moon,
I don't long for the summer rain,
All I want is you,
Everything I've dreamed of in life is useless if in it,,,
They make a good couple, right?
,,,you are not,
Everything I've ever feared in
life means nothing when in it,,,
,,,are you,
What memories,
Yes, what memories,
-How is Patrick? -Good,
-How is Adam? -Good,
Me,,,
I need fresh air,
Stefcia, wait,
Stefcia!
-Where are you going? -Outside,
-Can you be more precise? -Far!
Let's go,
You go with Patryk, Spot,
-Its my desicion, -I'm not going to argue,
-If you don't go, I'll go, -Listen,,,
-We can all go, -No,
I don't know where he got the money from, but neither you nor I have it,
-And we can't get it, -Yes,
-Yes we can, No, Stefcia,
We are not traffickers or corrupt Judenrat, we are actors,
We can ask Patryk,
-",,,but a drunk yes", -No,
You say: "Two people of different faiths will
never understand each other, but two drunks will,"
I will find a way,
Go,
In agreement,
How are you?
-I'm not going to cough when I sing, -Good girl,
It looks like you've been chewed up and spat out,
It would seem that the public has thrown tomatoes at you,
They have done?
-What have you heard? -Hear?
Not a big deal,
How much is that?
I have heard,,,
,,,that you need money,
Is that,,,
,,,you don't like soup anymore?
You could hand over Niusia to the Germans,
But then maybe,,,
,,,they put you in jail and close the theater, so maybe,,,
,,,there is another way,
You're beautiful,
Stefcia,
And you are an actress,
So,,,
,,,you wouldn't have to do the street,
You could get clients in Poland,
They wouldn't pay you a thousand zlotys, but,,,
,,,you would have a good life,
Okay,,,
A better,
you could eat
And them,
The little girl would not go hungry,
Neither him,
Neither you,
I'd like to help you, Stefcia,
What are you waiting for?
You have to entertain the audience,
He has to laugh at the text, not at you, Jozek,
-It's a hit, Maybe even appl,,, -I know, I know,
With the coming and going of strangers, things disappear,
You can't trust anyone in the ghetto,
If someone hangs up their coat, who knows if they have lice?
Do you prefer coal or electricity for cooking?
We have neither one nor the other,
And please don't make any noise, No parties,
That was not a party,
Mr, Finkelstein lives right next door, He works, He needs quiet,
-Bad aspiration for a Jew, -Not a word more,
Silence, silence, silence,
It's not tuberculosis, don't worry, I shouldn't smoke, But he can afford it,
Do you know what he pays for tobacco with? I would give you more,
-Is there someone at home? -Me,
-What are you doing on that side? Ada invited me to breakfast,
Fake tea without sugar and compote without apple, Made with real radishes,
-And why has she invited you? -Because you weren't,
That woman is worth a potosí,
Although not as much as you,
And she is so neat!
Some friends came and,,,
Ahead!
Apollo, give me strength,
Excuse me, my name is Zylbermann,
-I am sorry, We cannot receive visitors, -I'm not a visitor,
I am the head of the neighborhood committee,
My dear lady,
We are organizing a party for Saturday,
There will be dancing, and a raffle with some wonderful prizes,
He was wondering if I could ask
you to do us the honor of singing for us,
-I'd love to, -He would love to,
Wonderful! He will see, the matter is as follows:
Feinmesser, who lives at 3, is our richest tenant
and pays for most of the neighborhood council funds,
-That's bad? -No, but he has a daughter who sings,
And what does she sing?
He doesn't sing normally,
He sings,,,
What they call "cooladura",
Anger,,,? No, God save us,
-Do you mean coloratura? -Exactly, "culture"!
So I was wondering if you could listen to her?
and tell me if she's qualified to sing so I can tell the committee,
-I'd love to, -He would love to,
-Don't repeat what I say, -I'm trying to help,
-Do not be angry, -I do not do it,
-Are you mad at me, -Is not true,
I know when you're angry,
-I'm not, damn it, -If these,
Now I am really angry!
I can not stand it anymore!
-You can be very touchy, -I've noticed,
Good,,,
Back to the "collector",,,
-To the girl, -It's,
Maybe she knows how to sing, I'm not saying she doesn't, but maybe,,,
Perhaps she believes that zikh a lung is a leber,
Let her confuse,,,
,,,the lung,,,
,,,with the liver,
- Excuse me, I express myself better in Yiddish, -No problem, I understand everything,
-Really? -I even speak it,
Teacher,,,
If you really understand,
then I must be very frank,
if you allow me to say,,,
,,,all these things the Yiddish way,
Zitst shabes, to makhaye,
metsieh, shvartse soss,
cholent mit kishkeh,
meshugener, mazel tov!
That sounds fabulous! Just a few words,
There is another case that I have heard of,
Imagine that you go to the town hall,
how do you get them to answer your call?
Zitst shabes, to makhaye,
metsieh, shvartse soss,
cholent Mit Kishkeh,
meshugener, mazel tov!
That sounds fabulous! But what are you doing,,,
,,,when your Romeo is by your side,
the moon shines and turns its head,
What do you tell him to come to bed?
Zitst shabes, to makhaye,
metsieh, shvartse soss,
cholent Mit Kishkeh,
meshugener, mazel tov!
That sounds fabulous! Now I see,,,
,,,that your Yiddish is provocative,
Now I'm afraid I must go,
I say goodbye to you and wish you a good night,
Zitst shabes, to makhaye,
metsieh, shvartse soss,
cholent mit kishkeh,
meshugener, mazel tov!
You know how to sing in Yiddish!
Josek?
-I know you? -I do to you,
-I have sung in all the bars of the ghetto, And Patrick? Isn't he there?
-You can't know him, he doesn't drink, We are partners on the Council,
Today we have had breakfast here, with Ada and my girlfriend, Niusia,
Do you know Niusia? -And you?
-We are few in the ghetto, -And less and less,
Niusia and I have had a fight,
I want to get married, but she says I have to be sober to propose,
In this world,,,
You love her?
Who knows?
Who is already looking for true love? -Already,
You want?
inspiring, Whoever doesn't die of hunger, we kill with grief,
You finish the acts in a sad way, That way they will never applaud,
We finish with a romantic touch, as we agreed,
-You take humor too seriously, I don't think about me, I think about them,
Where did you get the money from?
-Go change, -From where?
-What difference does it make? -Maybe there's more,
Have you stolen it?
To who?
To whom, Patrick?
Grocher,
Grocher, the dentist?
No, Grocher, the gnome,
Yes, the dentist,
He takes your gold teeth for a pittance
and sells them to the Germans, It's scum,
- Does he know that you have stolen? - Forget it, Stefcia,
He knows?
I hit him,
Have you hurt him?
I hit him,
Have you hurt him?
I do not know,
She fell and gave,,,
I do not know, I do not know,
-Chill chill, -I do not know,
-Nothing's going to happen to you, -I think you can,,,
Does anyone know?
It's okay,
Everything will be fine,
-Everything will be perfect, -Stefcia, Where are you going?
Fuck!
Damn, damn, damn,,,!
-Shit! -Sorry,
It's me,
I didn't want to scare you,
-Are you okay? -Yes,
Take,
Put this on,
So,
What have we done?
What have we done for what?
To live like this,
What would you do for me?
Whatever it was, you already know,
Would you do something bad?
Would you steal for me?
would you kill
What would you be willing to do not to lose me?
I'm not holding you back, Stefcia,
You will not die here,
-You must go with Patryk, -Nope!
Nope,
You know you must,
Nope,
-Stefcia,,, -No,
-Let's go, -No,
Stefcia!
Come,
Stefcia,
I want the money,
-You are crazy? What do you say? -The one you stole, give it to me,
You have to calm down,
-I can not talk now, -I will denounce you,
-You stole it, -For you!
There's nothing between us, Patryk, I'm with Edmund,
-If you really loved me,,, -You've gone crazy,
-If you really loved me,,, -Stefcia!
Stefcia,
-Trouble in paradise? -Shut,
-You're crushing me, -Nothing happens, It's a second, okay?
I'm sorry honey, Keep painting,
Do you like to spy on people?
-Who does not? -To me,
I have loved many men,
Trust me, there is always another,
Go with Patrick,
I don't love him,
What counts here is to be loved, girl,
Not love,
Shit!
It doesn't matter if
she's too big or too small,
if you don't have outside views,
It couldn't be more pleasant, such a
comfortable home with everything you need,
just for us, for me and for you, For you and for me,
Finally, the two of them alone,
Look at the lovebirds, As formal as they seemed this morning,
No no no,
-Patryk is not my lovebird,,, -Let's have a drink, or five!
-Vodka! -Vodka!
-Just in time, -Who's your lovebird?
-It's me, -Nousia?
Stefcia!
I thought Patrick,,,
Let's drink the glass half empty, Health!
-Health! -Health!
-Excuse me, -Our beloved landlady,
Drink with us,
-But,,, -That way he doesn't let us make noise,,,
Well, since they insist,
He just wanted to tell you that,,,
,,,I'm also going to celebrate something very soon,
-For what reason? -Who cares? Health!
-Health! -Health!
-Well, ladies and gentlemen,,, -What?
I am remarried,
Let's drink to the lucky one!
-Health! -Health!
And who is it?
- Mr, Finkelstein, -The one next door?
-A hardworking man, -That he needs calm,
-Peace and tranquility, -Ahead!
Let's disturb Mr, Finkelstein's peace,
Come on, Niusia, Jozek, Come on, home lady,
Let's go make a ruckus!
Watch out, lady landlady, it's going to bring the bust down!
I never liked Napoleon!
He is the president of the Jewish Council, Czerniaków!
-Mundy, why are you so sad? -Because,,,
Because you have a beautiful voice,
-My voice? -It makes life meaningless,
What doesn't make sense is this place, - No, enough of regrets, You are wrong,
You will see,,,
Life is beautiful but it has no meaning,
It's like that, hold on and smile,
You must understand it and not bother,
Sobriety is the worst vice,
Let's drink to it and drink again and
have a third drink and,,, Then what?
Then Steffi, my dear Steffi will give me
happiness and she will give me a kiss,
What are you doing? kiss him
How much desire do you have?
When it's cold and a blizzard is blowing and
the coat you're wearing is worn and tattered,
don't worry too much, because just as
snow is white, sobriety is the worst vice,
Let's drink to it and drink again and
have a third drink and,,, Then what?
Then Steffi, my dear Steffi will give me
happiness and she will give me a kiss,
Stefcia,
Stefcia, why,,,?
That is,,,
And if you catch typhus, it's not that serious,
It's what life,,,
Let's drink to it and drink again and
have a third drink and,,, Then what?
So Steffi, my dear Steffi,,,
Why have you lowered the curtain?
Is it the German that works with the dentist?
Is he looking for you?
-I do not know, -Do not know?
Did you put Stefcia in danger, you son of a bitch?
-What the hell is going on here? -Enough!
She has said enough!
Let it go,
You have to hide now,
They won't look for you at Jozek's sister's house,
We cannot stop the work, the German will think that something is wrong,
-And it is not like that? -We don't know why he has come,
This is what your friends from the resistance bring us,
He could be here for anyone, To see what I have written, By Nyusia,
For you, Irena,
We all have something to shut up,
He is in Hashomer Hatzair,
-What the hell are you saying, Niusia? -Is not true,
Radical fucking,,, We should hand them both over,
I saw you at the print shop, -You lie!
Niusia, are you sure?
-I don't know,,, -I don't know anything about politics,
I'm not even a Zionist, Tell him, Stefcia,
The Germans like being here as much as we do with them,
Come on,,,
Explain to me what you're doing here,
He is alone,
And that?
Maybe he just came to see the play,
You're right, when they come for you they don't come alone,
It is not like this?
Nope?
-We have to go, -Nope!
She will be suspicious, Stefcia is right,
Calm must be keeped,
No one will be arrested today,
Intermission is over,
It's not the fucking intermission!
Raise the curtain,
Yes, okay,
Raise the curtain!
Sorry to bother you so late,
- Are you coming with the girl? Stefcia is not here, No, I'm not here for that, Maybe tomorrow,
-What do you want then? -It is about,,,
Hello!
Is about,,,
,,,donations,
This is a great building, and most of the tenants,,,
-,,,is geyt mit der puter arob, -"They fall on the butter side",
That's what the neighborhood committee is for, Helping the poor is our duty,
-Of course, -Of course,
But wherever I go, people just say:
-See rod gebrokhn, - "I'm broke,"
What's going on?
I never name names,,,
Any,
,,,but Dr, Rodbaum,
who lives upstairs,
he doesn't understand that there are people,,,
-,,,two harts iz zej avek, -"Heartless",
We are not one of those, We will pay our fee,
-And happy to do so, -So shall!
Good! Excuse me, did you say "fee"?
Yes,
-Why? -No, it's "fees",
Do you pay two installments?
How two?
-Twenty two! -Twenty two?
Yes!
For the fund and the community,
For our comfort and unity,
For the mother, the son and the nation, For the sick, a small donation,
For the health campaign and to stay alive,
For animals, for expurgations, for religious celebrations,
For singers, poets and actors,
Of the poor we are benefactors,
Against scabies, for delousing and, in winter, more accommodation,
He has come to see the play,
I've always hated this stupid song,
When the distribution is over, the police keep the rest,
-Do you understand now? -Yes of course!
Let's go! Faster!
For the fund and the community, For our comfort and unity,
For the mother, the son and the nation, For the sick, a small donation,
For the health campaign and to stay alive,
Yeah it's a stupid song,
And who knows, who knows,
if May will never return,
Very nice Sarah,
She's going to be great for you,
I want it to be perfect,
Sometimes if you relax, it works out better,
That's true?
Nope,
Come here, come on,
-You love your brother very much, don't you? -Yes, And you,
But more to him,
-And you want the best for him, right? -I dont know,
What is more important to you, being with me or with your brother and taking care of him?
I don't know,
Let's go,
Rest, German is bored, I don't like it,
-Just the same he wants him,,, -It doesn't matter what he wants,
Not what anyone wants, We need to talk, Outside,
Can't we stay in the dressing room?
Nope,
Wait,
Where has he been?
Far, Let's go,
-Too cold for Sarah, -I know, I am sorry,
Do you want to say goodbye?
-Sarah, Tell Edmund what you said, -The fact that?
-That you prefer to be with Edmund, Stefcia, please,
-That you love him very much and you're not going to leave,,, -Stefcia!
-Go back inside, Sarah, -Can I rehearse?
Yes,
Help you Ada, Go,
What are you playing, Stefcia?
I'm not playing,
You don't need to do this, You know that, right?
You don't need to be angry to leave, not get angry at me
Why is it so easy for you to give up on me?
-How? -Why don't you fight for me?
Why don't you try to hold me back?
-Why is it so easy for you? -Because I don't want you to die!
We are all gonna die!
We are already dead,
They kill us of hunger, of cold,
They give us hope and then they take it away, -Can,,,
We can't do anything, Edmund!
What do you do, except look at me with that face of,,,
,,,"I don't understand you, I love you so much that I'm willing to let you go"?
Is a lie,
Love is doing what has to be done,
Whatever is needed, what do you want?
-I want you to live, -I want to live!
With you!
What do you want me to do, Stefcia?
What I can do? Do you want me to take the money from Patryk?
And leave Sarah, for her to die,
She's going to die anyway!
Then we'll do it together,
What are you waiting for? Leave away,
Take,
-It's cold, -Yes, not a Jew without his coat,
Irena told me that she would bring it to you herself,
but then I couldn't spy on you,
-How does he do it? -Only the invisible survive,
Yes,
They say you go blind, Unfortunately, it is not so,
Do you believe in life after death?
I'd be happy if there was one before,
What do you think?
I know there is,
Convert,
Three generations,
It doesn't matter, for them I'm a Jew,
Mazel tov,
Take,
Do you ever wonder what you would be doing if there was no war?
Never,
Neither do I,
You've got,,,
I don't have anyone, Stefcia,
I know,
-I felt so sorry for you, -Yes, I know,
She was,,,a good person,
We both know no,
It was worth it to me,
I like it so,,,
I liked,
It is good to love someone,
Yes,
love or be loved,
the eternal dilemma,
What is better,
-It's not like you can choose, -Plato! Aristotle!
Last act,
If you are not too busy, the German still appreciates the gesture,
For them,
Stefcia,
Sorry,
The situation is dire,
What I can do? What I can do?
Dismal and unusual,
What can I do?
I live with her, but I love you,
What I can do? What I can do?
The situation saddens me,
What can I do?
I love you, but I like him too,
What I can do? What I can do?
Also, I married him,
What can I do?
Should he stay or should he go?
What I can do? What I can do?
What can we do? It is a quid pro quo,
What can I do?
I should be going? Should I stay?
What I can do? What I can do?
It will be horrible, whatever you do,
What can I do?
-I feel cornered -I feel cornered,
What I can do? What I can do?
-I'm going to lose my mind, -I'm going to lose my mind,
What can I do?
An answer is needed,
What I can do? What I can do?
Why is it so hard to love?
What can I do?
I have a lot to ponder,
What I can do? What I can do?
Too many doubts before you go,
What can I do?
There is something,,,
There's something I have to do, Stefcia,
I have to do this,
-I can not live without you, -Nor me without you,
-You must leave Patryk, -And you to Ada,
She can't stop thinking about you, I can't control my thoughts,
But,,,
But?
Let's go, She continues,
-But we can not, -No,
-We'd be horrible people, -Barbarians,
It's horrible not being able to do horrible things,
-Maybe I should go, -Yes,
Maybe you should,
Hello,
This is Sarah,,,
This is Sarah, I told you about her,
-Nice to meet you, -Hello Sarah,
Miss Sarah,,,
Would you be so kind as to sing for this lady?
-I would prefer not to do it, -Please,
I would love it,
Really,
The tree will flourish, The tree will flourish,
The bird will sing as well as it knows how,
But the lovely girl
can't find a good man,
Little bird, little bird, trills
happily on your branch,
but the lovely girl cries
and longs for a good man,
It's not long before winter,
and the year will end,
And who knows, who knows,
if May will never return,
And good?
He liked it?
It has been beautiful,
Do you want to say thank you?
We wouldn't want to take up any more of your time,
I will not hold you, Stefcia,
-I want to be with you, -I do not know what I want,
Who wants to die for love?
-Would you like to stay here? -Nope!
I know what to do!
-I'm sorry I have to go, -Stefcia,
-Jozek wants to read us something, -I know, yes,
-Stefcia! -I'll be right back,
She has left, She has left,
-You are crazy? -You know I do,
She has left, She has left, She has left,
She has left!
-May I go now? -Yes let's go,
Nerd, Not so fast, Stay and keep me company,
Let's see what Jozek tells us,,,
Maybe,,, Maybe we could,,,
Wait for me here,
",,,at this point, I'm afraid,,,"
Edmund!
Come with me, I need you,
I do not can,
Jozek is reading us a letter from Ada,
",,,I'm afraid our relationship is impossible and I must go,"
You heard it, he leaves you, walking,
-But,,, -Sing!
-Stefcia! -Sing! Sing!
Good, Listen to me both,
-Stefcia,,, -Shut up!
I have loved you very much, Not anymore, She was wrong,
-I have always loved you, -But,,,
-Silence, I've been thinking, -When?
All the time,
You would do everything for me, Edmund, I've seen it, I know,
He moves me, but he would do things that are not right,
And that counts too, -I do not,,,
It's okay, Patryk, I already said I love you,
-Is not true, -If I say yes, yes,
And you love me more than him, -But you love him,
She was wrong! It's nothing personal, honey,
What are you doing there?
-The grand finale is here, -Let Niusia come out in my place,
She can not, She says that the German is looking for her,
Well, you go out,
-It's not my scene, -For the love of God, Adam!
improvise!
Nothing will make what's going on there worse,
You're leaving after the show,
-I'm not leaving, -I am not leaving,
I stay in the ghetto,
I'm not going with this idiot, Who do you Love,
-I love you, -I can't leave Sarah,
Of course not,
That's why she's going with you,
-What do you say? -What?
Think about it, Patrick,
Forget about me!
Forget Edmund,
-Don't you see? -No, I do not understand,
Let Edmund and Sarah go,
Sarah hasn't lived yet,
Edmund yes, -She needs you,
And I will stay,
by your side
We have so much to give people,
They need to laugh,
You will write and I will be your actress,
We'll make them forget the pain for a while,
And who knows? Maybe we'll survive,
Maybe the Russians will free us,
Maybe we can have a long life together,
-Have children,,, -Do you want to have children?
I want to live,
You want me to believe that we can be together, right?
Yes,
You are a good actress,
I know,
You love Edmund more than your own life,
Yes,
And I love you more than mine,
let's do it
-I have nothing to say? -No,
Jozek will play your part, We'll have to remove the character from him,
And you'll do Sarah's song,
- Ada won't like it, -No, she won't like it,
Are you sure about this?
Of course not,
The big end?
The grand finale, come on,
The big end,,,
Listen to me, I have the solution!
We must be honest,
Ada will stay with Patryk,
You will make better use of it,
Not a word, It is already decided, And you, Edmund,,,
If you love me,,,
-Yes I love you, -And I you,
And Niusia and Jozek, together too!
If this idiot leaves the bottle, If not,,,
Thank you very much, Thank you all,
Sorry to interrupt at the best time,
Although isn't it always the best time when we're interrupted?
Not again,
It's the bad thing about starting to shoot, You know when you start, but,,,
It is done,
I'd like to talk to you, miss,
No, no,,, Not you,
Nope,
You have a bad face, are you okay?
Sure?
I'm glad,
Miss, You,,,
If you don't mind me calling you miss, Is she married?
-I was, "It was," she says,
Marriages don't last these days, do they?
TRUE?
Nope,
How right,
Ma'am, I am writing to you because,,,
,,,seems intelligent, someone others would listen to,
I am writing to you because I believe that this way others will pay attention to me,
What nonsense, right?
Very cautious,
I wouldn't say anything in his place either,
Who knows what I want to hear,
But I'm not in his place, am I?
Not even in yours, Or yours,
Or yours,
I am in my place,
I would like you and me, my friends, to
understand each other a little better today,
I understand that you need to entertain yourself doing Jewish things,
Dances,
Prayers,
You work, I really like to laugh too,
Yes!
Very funny,
I came tonight,,,
Are you in the resistance, Edmund?
Not anymore,
-What? -And it is impossible for him to know,
I swear if anything happens to,,,
Silence! Silence!
Silence!
Please!
Excuse me, Otherwise, I'm lost,
I am a reasonable man,
I understand, for example, that they read, Who doesn't like to read?
To me, but what does that matter?
And of course, if there is not much to read, something will have to be printed,
Like little stories
Or some banned newspaper in that funny language of yours,
Y,,,
,,,naturally,,,
,,,an occasional pamphlet,
I am not angry, do not be confused, who am I to judge anyone?
I never,,,
Not again,,,
I have to be careful, right?
If not, I'll run out of bullets,
Though,,,
,,,there are always more bullets,
Those little pamphlets, he said, are not handwritten,
And it's not five or six,
Who would want five booklets? "Five Jews", they will tell me,
But are you only five?
Maybe some day,
Let's not be impatient,
So they will need a printing press,
For the brochures,
And if I hear they have a printing press, I get nervous,
And if I find her, I get more nervous and start asking questions,
Highly strung,
And then I get here, my finger slips out, and bam!
Nope!
Because I'm nervous,
And because it would seem that this rifle has something loose, and that is not good,
So,,,
,,,I leave it here
and I take out this pistol,
which is more solid and reliable,
Just shoot if I want to,
Because I don't care about the brochures, but the printing press doesn't, do you know why?
Because with it you can print brochures,
disgusting propaganda, or safe-conducts,
and I cannot allow anyone to print safe-conducts
that disturb this harmony that we have achieved,
Your people, my people,
You understand it,
Right, ma'am?
She is smarter than her husband,
So,,,
,,,now that my position is clear to all,,,
She is making a mistake,
Please,,,
I have not done anything,
Of course not,
Very funny,
I think we have understood each other,
A fantastic function,
I'm glad I came, Please keep going,
What the hell happened here?
What have you done?
Hey?
What have you done?
I didn't know him,
There are more dissident groups than Jews,
You can't trust anyone,
What do we do?
Any,
- Let's finish the show, -What?
He said to finish the show,
What are you talking about?
We can't continue,
-They just,,, -That's who we are!
What we have left!
If Irena says we're done,,,
,,,we finished the function!
let's do it
-We are actors, -Yes,
Let's get on with the show, -Everybody sit down!
We can finish before curfew!
-We can still have that! -Sit down, dammit,
Let's go!
And you better clap your hands, damn it!
-Let's go! - Patrick,,,
,,,he loves Ada,
And I love you,
What is the drama? Divorce and marry me,
It's not like we're Catholics either!
"You really don't mind, Ada? -If you don't mind that I love Patryk,,,
Kiss Me,
Kiss me my love,
Kiss me, Patrick,
Do you know what?
If Niusia and I get married tomorrow, all six of us will have to live together,
I'll get another screen, But you will pay the same as them,
-It's very generous of him, -Goodbye My Love,
Even though Jozek and I won't be able to go on our honeymoon,,,
Don't be sad, Niusia,
When nothing can be done,,,
There is always love!
Everything I've dreamed of in life is useless if in it,,,
You have to go now, you must reach the wall before the touch,
-I don't want to leave you here, -I know, You must leave,
Bye sweetheart,
-Remember what I told you: firm and straight, -You go?
No, I'm not leaving, You don't die and take care of your brother,
Voucher?
Listen to me,,,
I love you,
If you don't go now, I swear I'm going with Jozek,
Franciszkanska Street, 21,
- Over the wall or under it? - By the wall, Exit through the basement,
Leave away,
Wait,
Was it your grandmother's? -From someone's grandmother, sure,
If I find a way, I'll come back,,,
Run, my love, run,
Bye,
Everything I've dreamed of in life is useless if in it,,,
,,,you are not,
I don't long for the summer rain,
All I want is you,
Everything I've dreamed of in life is useless if in it,,,
,,,you are not,
Everything I've ever feared in life
means nothing when you're in it,
Are you,
Is it so,,,
They are clapping,
They are clapping!
Raise the curtain,
Let's go!
Raise the curtain!
What's happening?
Nothing happens,
Let's go from here,
I don't even know what happened, but tomorrow they will applaud too!
So be it!
Stefcia!
