STARRING:
ALSO STARRING:
1930's Somewhere in Poland...
Well, that's not fair.
I can't go into water in my shoes.
Why not?
If I were a boy I would have jumped after my girl even into dungeons!
Me too! But... without shoes.
Uh... since your shoes are tastier than girl's kiss then keep the shoes...
"Dear Sister! I have good news. Karol had found a construction job for Yanek.
You are more than welcome if you would like to come to the city too..."
Look.
- We move to Warsaw then! - Are you so unhappy in the country?
With Halina I'm happy anywhere, but country ain't a city.
Yanek has to make some money.
Have to!
Lunch break!
You're hungry again, huh?
That's right. For past hour my guts were already playing a symphony.
Which one?
"The Butterfly Dance"
- See ya! - See you later, bon apetit.
- What you are doing here? - I've brought you lunch.
Zocha had to leave at the morning and I was substituting for her at home.
That's good because I'm hungry like a wolf!
I hope you'll like it... because it's me who cooked it.
Oh... it must be something special!
Karol! It's lunch!
I know it's lunch, but what's for lunch?
Vistula salmon with dills or maybe cow's tongue with beets?
Actually a cabbage soup with smoked meat!
Oooh, if it's with smoked meat then I'm coming right away!
Well, don't say... Love is a beautiful and responsible feelings.
But is it a reason enough to deny lunch to brother-in-law because you're busy with love?
I think it's not nice.
You only think about food all the time.
- Eat, eat, eat... - No, no. I'll go smell roses instead.
Maybe I'll even start loosing weight for your pleasures, that'll be the day.
I'm a full-time brick layer. It's hard work. Of course I have to "eat, eat, eat".
- Very tasty smoked meat. - Smoked sausage.
- How much left there? - I'm almost done. Last row.
- Hurry up. It's almost 4PM. - OK.
Today was a tough day, huh?
Look! Our women are there!
- Your wife and my Halina! - So? What's the rush?
Finally Karol came down too.
- And whose presence have blessed my eyes? - How are you, Karol?
Let's go home.
My Zocha can run upstairs like a wind!
Oh, so now I supposed to kiss a dirty man who still has lime from work on his nose?
You're right. I'll go to my room and wash myself first.
In the meantime...
Isn't life beautiful?
Well yes, it is.
- Halina, give me a hand, please. - Of course.
- Really, Karol? He did praised him? - Yes, and praised him a lot!
And it wasn't only our architect, but also the engineer visiting our construction.
I'm telling you, for good half an hour they were staring at how Yanek is working.
Did you hear, Zocha? The were praising him.
By the look of his I could tell he is smart and hard working.
Wait, wait...!
What is it, nothing left to eat?
Oh, boy! He had 3 portions and he still wants more!
You know what, my dear? Instead of eating more let's all go for a walk.
Great idea!
- Let's go, lazy guy! - What lazy guy?!
My beloved lazy guy!
That sounded much better.
What... what happened?
Zosia... what happened? Why do you feel not good?
- Really, can't you guess? - Oh, shoot...!
Guys! Did you hear it? I'm about to become a father!
- Well, let's go out alone. - Sure, let's go.
Here, have some drink.
- You feel better now? - Yes.
Zocha, I... you have no idea... I just can't believe we will have a son!
Because I'm sure it will be a boy! Like father like son!
I too were a pretty baby. Like an angel.
Yanek... just a moment ago you were about to ask me something.
Me?
I don't recall such a thing.
Too bad then.
I wanted to ask... Do you know how much I love you?
How could I have guessed it... and you... don't show me much affection so far.
You're right.
Now do you believe me?
Now I believe it. But...
- ... how about the important things? - What important things?
- When are you going to announce our plans? - I would even tomorrow.
- But... you see... I don't have enough money.
I already have started saving money and have some in a bank.
Me too!
But it's not enough yet.
By the end of autumn we should be able to afford our own apartment, furniture...
July, August, September, October...
Four long months!
...thus we have to oil our throats or it'll dry up in the dust. And we we're just paid!
Very fancy dress with stripes. Who order such beauty?
I knew it's for yourself right when I saw it. No client would have ordered such dress.
Such a beautiful collar...
I have to look good for my boyfriend.
- You have a boyfriend? - Of course, it's Yanek.
- Look Zocha, how great it fit's on me!
Oh wow, you're such a lady now since you've got yourself a boyfriend, oh no!
I have a date with Yanek tonight. We're going to the movies.
47.11
- ... 45... 2 zloty short, mr. cashier! - I know. Here it comes.
- ... and eleven. Thank you very much. - Why are you in such hurry?
I've got a date.
We're going to the movies.
Bye now. Thanks!
Well, I've got my pay. See you guys!
This much for rent...
This for Zocha for living expenses...
This for cigarettes...
... and 6 zlotys left!
I guess it's for... "culturar-gastrognomy" entertainment?
Let's go for a drink.
Well... I'm against wasting money on booze.
But... one drink on Saturday ain't a sin...
Perhaps I can join you.
- See you guys! - Mr. foreman, here's Yanek.
Yanek, come with us.
Yanek, let's go. Home.
"UNDER THE STAIRCASE" Guys, I really should be going home.
- He's right, they're waiting for us at home. - If they're waiting they can wait bit more!
- I can't... - Come on, be a man! It's Saturday.
Well, Yanek...? He's right too. One drink ain't a sin.
- But Halina is waiting... - Come on, just one drink and we go home.
Guys, I can't... I have to go home.
Come on. Just one drink.
Look Yanek, I'm with you. One vodka and we're leaving home.
Karol... hi!
I'll be damned! Muniek, you're here too? Hi!
Why are you stand here like three stooges? You're teaching this young man bad manners!
- He's my brother-in-law, Yanek Kwiatkowski. - I remember him, he's one of best workers.
- Are we to talk like this to empty glasses? - Right... Mr. blondie, pour 4 glasses please
Bottoms up!
- Barman, give us something to bite after drink! - Guys, let's not stand here like some monuments.
You're right, Muniek. Sitting at the table is much healthier for legs.
Miss Felcia! Don't you have a tiny piece of table for us?
Why only a piece? Please have a seat, there is an empty table!
Music please!
Vitek, hi! You're here too!
Regular or premium vodka?
Give us regular.
Please Miss Felcia... don't wiggle, I won't let you go until you tell us what's on menu.
- How about tomato salad? -No, not tomatoes...
Tomatoes good for girls... we are big guys, we need something more nutritious than that
How about fresh pickles?
That's true. Pickle is more nutritious, very tasty, and goes well with a drink.
Oh... I see mr. foreman had some education in food...
How's everything at home? How is you wife?
Everything's swell, thanks. Actually, I'm about to become a father.
That's great news! Let's drink to the health of the baby!
Let's hope the baby boy will have a rich father!
Ex... excuse me, but I must go home now.
- But, Yanek... Yanek, come on? - You know Halina is waiting...
Don't make me ashamed for you...
Foreman Muniek has treated us with a bottle at his own expense ...
and you want to disrespect him like that?
You want to go home while foreman have just praised you?
You still could walk straight under table when he was already making such tables!
Hold your horses buddy, show some respect where respect is due.
- What time is it? - 8:20 PM
Perhaps something bad happened to them?
Don't worry abot them, my dear. I'm sure colleagues took them out for a drink.
They'd have vodka... while we're waiting for them with dinner.
Well. Sometimes you have to be forgiving.
Oh, yes? Forgiving? When he chooses vodka over me?
We were supposed to go see a movie.
Forrr God sake Yaanek... you're wastiiing a drrrink!
- Be more careful, Yanek - I'm trying
If you drop a diamond you can still pick it up,
but each drop of vodka spilled is immediately lost forever.
♪ Colourful pictures of grey dreams...
Stop croaking!
She can't handle her liquor!
He got drunk again, oh God...
Rent unpaid, children need shoes and clothes yet you're drinking away your wages again!
- You wretched scoundrel, you... - Don't touch me! Go away, woman.
I'm having fun!
If he's having fun then good for him. Never argue with the drunkards.
- Let him have fun... - Gentlemen, you're 6 zlotys short.
- How much? - Six
6 zlotys coming right your way.
Yanek, Yanek... Excuse me.
Children, youngsters and fish have no saying when it comes to check.
We've asked you to come with us and we are paying the bills.
- Barman, our tab is good now? - Yes sir, all is paid.
- So we're good? - Yes, all paid to the penny.
Gentlemen! What are we going to do with the rest of this glamorous night?
- Let's go to "Esplanade" on Montmartre St. - Lead the way!
- Wake up, Yanek! - Gimme a smoke!
How about light too?
- Girls! - I see.
- They're sport not for us. - I want to go home
- Come on fatso... girls! - I want home... - Girls!
Seems like boys had one too many?
In-deeed... I thiiink we had... feeew drinkss too many...
And because of that we are thirsty for female companionship...
...but in a gentleman's way only.
However, I... I won't reject a kiss.
Yanek, come up here. Let me introduce you to this wonderful lady.
This is my young friend Yanek. He's a very nice boy.
- Say hello, Yanek. - I'm Yanek.
Let's go then!
What are you afraid of?!
- What, are you asleep here?! - Yes. I want home.
- Come inside! - I want home.
- Get inside! - I want... home...
You're an ugly drunkard.
You have no idea how much I suffer... morally.
- I feel like retching. - Don't expect pity from me.
Where's your compassion, woman?
Where's your lovely heart?
Know you drunk, that a woman's heart is full of mercifulness, even for drunkard like you.
Say it again, please?
- I've cooked red borscht for you. - Borscht? - Yes.
- With beets? - Yes.
You're my angel!
Where is Yanek?
He's probably ashamed to come now.
I hope he's ashamed!
Such a rascal!
Yanek!
- I'll go get him, he really is too ashamed - Go my dear, bring him over.
How about that borscht for me already?
Who is it?
Your remorse!
Dinner's getting cold.
Nice, another one feeling sick...
Won't you even say hello to me?
I don't dare.
I felt very bad that you've forgot about me yesterday.
But since you feel so bad about it too lighten up, I forgive you.
I know you love me.
- Oh God, oh my God... - Oh don't exaggerate now.
Of course getting drunk with buddies is a very bad thing.
But, after all, it's not a tragedy.
Just don't ever cheat on me, anything else I can handle.
Let's go for dinner.
Borscht is great for hangover!
Come.
Halinka! Come, have a look.
How beautiful! It's like for a doll!
I will add a blue bow here.
Or should I add pink one?
I got an idea. Make it dual color. Pink will suit girl, and blue if it's a boy.
You're a genius!
Zosia, you must be so happy now that you're expecting!
Your own, lovely, little baby...
I am so happy!
So happy!
- Hold it. - Yanek! What's with you?!
Nothing!
Excuse me.
- You're taking leave to a doctor? - Yes.
Number 10!
DON'T DRINK FROM SOMEONE ELSE'S GLASS THAT'S HOW DISEASE IS SPREADING
YOU CAN INFECT SOMEONE WITH JUST A KISS
- What are you doing here? You're sick? - No, of course not!
I'm just waiting here... for a guy. My colleague got sick.
That's good. I though you caught ...
Oh, come on! Me... such thing?!
But what you are doing here?
I just took wrong floor. Are you still going to wait for him?
Ah yes... I'll wait a bit more.
Number 11.
Number 11!
He's gone?
Then next one please.
Yanek, what's with you? Perhaps you have caught it?
Stop it, of course I didn't.
- Let's go. - It's a shame to even be here...
JULY 1 Friday
JULY 2 Saturday
Yanek, why are you so sad lately?
Me? You're imaginating things. I am very happy at this moment.
Even very happy.
It's not true. You're hiding something.
But sweetheart, I'm telling you, I'm happy. I'm not hiding anything from you.
If that's true, then... maybe you don't love me anymore?
How could I not love you?
Believe me, I have never loved you more.
I'm just not sure to deserve you.
Yanek, I'm so happy with you.
Let's have a picture with elephant!
Smile please! 1... 2... 3...
Look, what a beautiful baby bear!
Glass of water, please.
- For you too, Miss? - No, thank you.
Actually, if you're not going to finish it, I'll just have a sip.
DON'T DRINK FROM SOMEONE ELSE'S GLASS THAT'S HOW DISEASE IS SPREADING
- I'm sorry. How much I owe you for the glass? - 20 cents.
- You were out for a stroll? - Yes.
Where's Yanek?
He went to his own place.
Karol!
- What is it? - Look at him.
Something's bothering him.
I worry about him.
I'll have a talk with him tomorrow.
I'll ask what's wrong, we'll fix it and everything will be alright.
- Are you sure? - Of course!
You have secrets from me now?
Come on man, just say what's bothering you!
I'm... sick.
Yanek... does it have something to do with our drunk party with those girls?
Yes
Why haven't you told me right away?
How could I tell about such thing?
Uh, you moron! I'll give you address to a healer, he'll cure you offhand!
- I don't know how to thank you... - No worries, you're welcome.
When I was young, before I got married, I too caught it... and look, now we'll have a baby.
I'm going to be a father.
That means... I still can... I can marry Halinka?
Naturally!
There's no need for wise-ass doctors and waiting in the clinics.
He'll cure you before we build this home.
Give me his address.
I just remember how to get there. You'll take streetcar #7 all the way to end.
At the last stop at Praga, when you get off the streetcar, you'll walk to the...
- Well, I'm here because... - I know.
I understand. Things like this always have to be ...
... kept behind the curtains.
There's nothing to worry about!
You shouldn't fret about it. It's so common and we all get it like measles at childhood.
I understand, sir, doctor, but... but I wanted...
I know, you want to get married and so on... I will give you instant cure.
It's a miracle cure. No doctor has it but me.
It's worth thousands of zlotys, but I ask only 20 zlotys from you.
Disease will disappear almost right away.
Trust me, I'm a Tibetan healer, you're not first, and certainly not last to get it.
Soon I will be healthy again.
- What's so rush, Yanek? Wait for me. - I can't. I'm really in a hurry.
- It must be some hot date? - Yes, it is. With my girlfriend.
See you!
Today morning you said you want to meet me for...?
To tell you that I have already obtained... birth certificate and all documents needed
for our wedding.
Next Sunday we can announce our engament in the church.
It's wonderful!
Yanek, but where are we going to live?
There. Is it nice?
It's beautiful.
But isn't it too small?
It seems small for all of us.
Small, but extendable.
Don't worry, I thought of everything.
The layout of this home is perfect. Look.
Oh, it looks good indeed.
And very comfortable!
Great!
But what is this room for?
This one?
A cold room.
And here we place cupboard...
Chest cabinet goes there...
And here?
Here?
- Yanek, look! Such nice picture. - Yes, it is very nice one.
When we will have our picture together?
Very soon!
Look!
- Very elegant man. - You're nicer.
Yanek, look at this little angel!
- There is another one! - This one seems more happy.
But he is chubby.
I prefer the first one better.
Let's hope we will have one like this soon.
I will become auntie first... You know, my sister Zocha will soon become a mother.
Karol is so happy too.
Now I worry about her.
We left her home alone.
You want to go back home?
Yes. Let's go.
Walk me home?
But of course.
- ...see Mrs. Martha? You never know... - God punished him for sins of the past!
- I only feel sorry for Karol's wife. - Me too.
- Did you hear them? - Oh well... they have to spread gossips.
But it was strange.
Yanek, I have bad feelings about it...
Something bad must have happened!
- What happened, doctor? - Miscarriage.
Infant didn't make it.
I was so happy...
I thought...
We'll have a son...
Oh, God! If that's because of Karol... But me too ... !
- Baby has paid for sins of the parents. - No, for sins of the father...
My dear... I have to tell you something... really terrible.
...why you didn't tell me earlier? We have to save him!
Have you seen Yanek?!
Somebody call an ambulance!
Bandages.
Easy there, big guy.
Why did you save me?!
Anyways I'll shoot myself or jump off the bridge.
Are you crazy?
Is that how a grown man behaves?
That's coward's behaviour!
I'm not a coward!
Yes, you are. You want to run from life.
I must!
Not true!
You must get a cure.
But there's no cure for this!
Yanek!!
Halina!
Let go off me! Let me go!
Halina...
Yanek... what have you done... to yourself?
What have you done to our happiness?
Without you... There is no more of our house...
... which we were planning together....
... nor our baby!
I will never... again...
All gone.
Not true.
Your happiness together still can be saved.
How is it possible? There's no cure!
Enough of this silliness.
All sexually trasmitted diseases are treatable. All of them!
Good God! Really treatable?!
And you wanted to die, Yanek!
Yanek, what's the matter with you!
Yanek, did you hear?! We still can be happy together!
Not only you "can"... but I'm sure you will be happy.
Only untreated diseases become sick person's tragedy
and a plague for society.
Thousands of graves... of those, who fell victim to this plague.
Hundreds of faces... as if eaten by leprosy!
Those are the effects of being unaware!
A man who don't seek treatment is not only hurting himself,
but is commiting a crime against society!
When you turn a blind eye on this supposedly shameful subject
the deseases spread even faster
and such a plague infects new victims.
At dusk thousands of prostitutes show up on city streets.
They draw and lure...
and while they lead to temptation each one of them is pot full of STDs.
Would a wise, rational man ever use a prostitute?
No.
But alcohol clouds one's judgement
that's why most infections occurs
during drunk parties.
The damages done by syphillis
are huge in the society.
In our country alone there are 50,000 miscarriages a year due to syphillis.
The statistics show, that currently there are over 1 million people with STDs just in Poland.
Half of them have syphillis.
Syphillis is a dangerous and very infectious disease.
And you can contract it in many ways.
For example: through kissing,
or sharing a cigarette.
The cause of this disease is a bacterium
bacterium called Treponema Pallidum, a spirochaete,
tiny organism the size of just 12 microns.
It coils itself like a spring, hence "spirochaete" name,
which you could observe under a microscope.
If just one of them, coming from an infected man,
finds a smallest crack in your skin
it will enter into your bloodstream
where it will immediately multiply itself into millions and milliones of copies,
thereby making you infected too.
First symptoms of being infected show after 3 weeks,
in a form of few sores.
First sore appears always in the place where the bacterium have entered the body.
The sore is painless, that's why it is usually neglected.
Within next 9 days a rash appears on the back and sides of the torso.
After that all these symptoms are gone and disease goes into "hidden" stage.
This is the most dangerous stage: the tertiary stage of syphillis.
Syphillis is a very tough disease.
But proper treatment guarantees being completely cured.
Did you hear, Yanek? Promise me you will undergo the treatment!
Swear you will go for treatment!
I swear.
- Let's go now. We must hurry! - Where to?
To Karols! We can't just leave them in the times of misfortune.
Come.
Miss, you are a brave girl.
As a doctor, figthting ignorance and prudeness,
I think I have found an ally in you, Miss!
- With all my heart! - That's good...
...because for true loving heart nothing is impossible!
- Mrs. Cashier... a tip for us. - Accepted.
I've got letter from Karols.
With picture. Look!
I can imagine the mess all those kids did when they were trying to take this photo
Look, Wiesia. Your cousins!
Smile, daughter!
