peace. Let's go.
- What's the matter, Ilya?
- I'm not going to ride.
What are you afraid of?
It's so easy. Please.
I'm not going to ride.
It's silly. Everybody asks you to,
I'm asking you, too.
I'm not going to ride.
I'll help you.
It's such a pleasure and fun.
I'm not going to ride.
Well, Ilya...
Let him be, Olga Sergeyevna,
we'll take a ride ourselves.
Ilya Ilyich, look,
even I am not afraid.
- Andrei!
- Catch up with us!
Ilya Ilyich, catch up with us!
Andrei!
Olga Sergeyevna!
Andrei, wait!
Olga Sergeyevna, wait for me!
Ilya Ilyich, hold me!
Well, it's over?
The next day Ilya Ilyich
moved to the Vyborg side.
Olga wrote to him,
even visited him once,
but they saw less and less
of each other.
Then their relations stopped.
The following year Olga
married Stolz.
Oblomov lived permanently now
on the Vyborg side,
in the widow Agafya Matveyevna
Pshenitsyna's house.
He played with her children,
dined, slept,
and dreamed of going to the country.
Stolz visited him,
urged him to start a new life,
go abroad, to Oblomovka,
but then he gave up.
Soon Agafya Matveyevna became
Ilya Ilyich's wife.
They had a son
named Andrei in memory of Stolz.
Ilya Ilyich made no distinction
between his own son
and Agafya Matveyevna's children
by her late husband.
Thinking about his way of living,
Oblomov decided that he had attained
his ideal of life,
though it had not the poetic setting
and radiance
with which he had once imagined
his life in his village.
Seven years later, Oblomov died
from a stroke.
Zakhar became a drunkard and a beggar,
and kept coming to his master's grave.
Stolz called him to come to his
village, but Zakhar wouldn't go.
The Stolzes took little Andryusha
to bring up,
adopting him as one of their family.
Agafya Matveyevna was left alone.
After Ilya Ilyich's death, there was
nothing more for her to desire.
It was only when she saw Andryusha
that she showed signs of life.
But she saw him rarely, only when
the Stolzes lived in Petersburg
or rented a villa near the city.
Ivan Alexeyevich, will you please
prepare the medicine for me?
It's on the window sill.
Yes, Olga Sergeyevna, I'll bring it.
- Please.
- Thank you.
The nurse says
Olenka was coughing in the night.
Hadn't we better send for the doctor?
I've given her a warm drink
and will keep her indoors for a day.
Play something, Ivan Alexeyevich.
I can't play, Olga Sergeyevna.
I'm sorry, I forgot.
Why haven't you answered
your friend Sonechka's letter?
I waited and nearly missed the post.
This is her third letter
you have left unanswered.
Yes, I want to make haste
and forget her.
- Why?
- It's just so.
Andrei Ilyich,
the village boys are here,
they say your mama is coming!
Make haste and run to meet her!
Mama is here!
Mama!
Mama!
Mama is here!
Reinhold sends his regards.
I saw him at the bank.
He looks fine.
He recovered completely.
He recalled our trip
with great pleasure.
He asked about you and the children,
invited us to visit him.
I promised him to come this week,
but then I remembered we are
to be at the exhibition's opening...
Thou are absolving now
the soul of thy servant, O Lord...
Deliver him from the body
unto repose...
Mama is here!
Mama!

Ilya Ilyich, why are you making
so much noise?
- You'll wake up your mama.
- Mama is here!
- When will Mama be up?
- Soon.
And when did she arrive?
Late at night, my dear.
You were
