-sea monster,
forgive my innocent impertinence.
You picked the flower,
you're my prisoner.
I repent, I'm guilty before you.
You see, my youngest daughter asked
me to bring her the scarlet flower.
How could I deny her that?
She's my most loved daughter.
Let me go and bid farewell
to my daughters.
I'll be back, you have my word
of a merchant. Let me go.
All right, go.
But I won't find the way back to you.
Here's my ring,
put it on your small finger.
You are to be back
in three days.
Father!
Oh, father, I have been waiting
for you all day and all night.
Forgive me, father!
Why, you're not happy, daughter?
Why don't you take the flower
you so longed for?
There's nothing more beautiful
in the whole world.
I'm stepping on the grass...
I'm stepping on the grass...
I'm walking in the field...
I'm walking in the field...
Oh, upon that green grass...
I'll be walking on and on...
It's the third day now.
Let's not let our father go
to the beast.
- How can we live without father?
- We can't live without father.
Why don't you cheat the beast?
Drop his ring in a well,
as if you have lost it.
Or we can move back the clock's
hands.
No, daughters, I gave him my word
of a merchant.
Father!
How can you leave us alone?!
No, we won't let you go, father!
Come, come, stop it.
How are you going to get there?
I'll put this ring on my finger,
and I'll be there.
That's all my fault.
Goodbye!
Where are you?
Forest beast!
I brought you the scarlet flower.
You must forgive my father,
but I came instead of him.
Where are you?
Here, take back your magic ring.
Keep it.
Don't be scared of me!
Don't be afraid.
Wait.
Wait, don't run away!
You will never see me.
What is your name?
- What is your name?
- Alyona. And what is yours?
I've got no name.
I'm not a human being.
Don't be afraid.
Did you get lost in our forest?
She's not bad.
Pale complexion, pink cheeks,
a swan's neck.
Not bad, but not to my taste.
Oh God, I'm sick and tired of him
and his guests!
Nobody is asking you, Madam.
- Old fool!
- Old witch!
Aren't you ashamed of enticing
an innocent creature?
- She came here by herself.
- And she will leave by herself.
You can't sleep, can you?
I feel scared here, at your place.
I'm seeing dreams.
I wonder, is it a shaggy beast
you're dreaming of?
At our place you will see even worse
things in your dreams.
Well, go on seeing your dreams
at night.
But don't peek into windows.
In old time guests were received
differently here.
With balls, masquerades,
fireworks!
It's you again!
Who else can it be here?
You won't solve your problem with
a quill, nor will you start a fire.
Warm or cold, what difference does it
make? I don't care.
You don't care!
That is your pride speaking,
Madam.
What can you know, stupid lackey?
You just feel like chatting.
It's so dull here, so desolate.
And it's all your doing.
You may go wherever you wish,
if you're bored.
Nobody keeps you here.
I would, but I can't.
What will happen to them then?
You care about everything.
Why did you put our poor prince
under a spell?
I think it's because you loved him.
What do you know about love,
old fool?
Come to the window.
Where are you?
Show up.
I feel scared in this palace.
I want out.
Talk to me.
Put on the ring,
and you'll be back home.
Where are you?
I will teach you how to tell
fortunes and prophesy.
Then whatever you wish
will come true.
I want to see the one I've come to.
You will see him,
if you wish it so much.
As soon as he finishes knitting that
robe for the beast, you'll see him.
She will see him.
- Is that she?
- Yes, that's her.
She used to be a beauty. In those
times everything was different here.
And what do we have now?
She stamps her foot, she shouts.
And at whom? Just torturing herself.
Come with me,
I'll tell you about her.
Madam, do you love him?
Who? The beast?
- You're not asleep, aren't you?
- No.
Come to the window,
talk to
