and go.
It's my fourth year
without a man.
Last night I hugged
the Russian...
He slept, but I was aching
below the tummy.
You smell bad.
All men smell of iron
and death now.
Yes, lots of midges.
When I was chained on the rock,
I thought they'd eat me away.
Have you got a sauna?
Can I have a wash?
Your skin s white - whiter
than any woman I've seen.
The midges bit you because
you wash too often.
Four years without a man,
and then two at once.
Have the spirits
read my thoughts?
He's got my skirt on! Why're
you dressed like a woman?!
Grinning, Fritz? Won't be
grinning for much longer!
A good knife.
Gerlost, I told you,
the war's over for me.
I don't want to kill, but I don't
want to be killed. Understand?
Go on, finish me off.
That's my husband's knife -
it's mine when he's not here.
Don't go killing each other!
I don't plan to bury you both.
What're you waiting for?
Think I'll kill you? The war's
over, my friend! Understand?
Peace. The war's over.
Lev Tolstoi, War and Peace.
Shoot, scum.
Lev Tolstoi, War and Peace.
Understand?
I understand you're a fascist,
you burnt Yasnaya Polyana.
I'm not a fascist. I'm a Finn.
I was at university, then the
war - I didn't want to fight.
You Idiot! Fyodor Dostoevsky.
The Idiot...
I can't understand a word...
I'm tired of fighting!
Ernest Hemingway -
Farewell to Arms!
I don't know Russian.
I should have studied it.
Sorry, Gerlost.
Abominable and miserable...
It's beautiful here...
I was a condemned man. Chained
to a rock like Prometheus.
But I thought about it, and
saw how to get the chain off.
I could have made fire
without the glasses.
If I'd shot into dry grass, say.
But the glasses were safer...
You don't understand me,
but that's not important.
In this filth and muck it's
an honor to remain alive.
The main thing is we're alive.
You and me.
I hope people will look back in
horror at what they did at war.
Maybe they won't.
Man is a strange being.
Dostoevsky said that.
You can make a lot of
good things with it.
He's cheered up, the fascist.
I never shared the views of
the fascists. I'm a democrat.
Fascist, all the same.
Democracy!
Come and eat.
Let's go and eat.
Worried I'll thump you? I would,
if it wasn't for the concussion.
It's my second. First was
in the winter of '42-'43.
Can I have some more?
You eat a lot. To eat a lot,
you have to work a lot.
Thank you.
Thank you, very tasty.
I don't drink coffee.
But thanks anyway.
Stupid woman.
Got a smoke?
Got a snout?
Bitte eine Zigarette.
If I had, I'd smoke it myself.
Thanks, fascist.
Take it off, I'll wash it.
Take that off as well.
You just love wrapping
yourself up in clothes.
You're not bad.
Girls like your kind.
Fritz!
She seems to like you.
What're you in a dress for?
Take it off, you look silly.
Gerlost!
Gerlost, you're shy. The Lapps
don't understand that.
They live a simple life.
You rabbit a lot. My ears are
ringing from all those words.
She hasn't got much fish ready.
The winter will be hard.
We're just extra mouths to feed.
We have to go quickly.
My eyesight's fine.
I started wearing glasses to
look more serious at university.
My family had difficulty getting
money for my studies.
In Stockholm they
look down on Finns...
So, I started wearing glasses.
Never thought they'd save me.
And she hasn't got
much hay ready.
Maybe just enough for the deer...
Yes, be off, chatterbox!
Let me help!
Don't come near me, or
I get wet and want to shout!
She's angry.
The girl's smitten.
What?
I said she's smitten.
I'll cover the wood in clay...
The wood will burn and make
a chimney for a sauna.
We'll boil or fry them,
then eat them.
You want to go
to the other world?
Drink the broth of toadstools -
those will just make you sick.
Can't be bothered?
Don't worry!
I'll cook them.
The sergeant in my battalion
cooked them wonderfully!
Gerlost's eating mushrooms
to commune with the spirits.
Maybe he
