1
00:00:29,947 --> 00:00:36,953
present

2
00:00:38,122 --> 00:00:42,417
starring

3
00:01:28,088 --> 00:01:33,634
a film by

4
00:01:34,845 --> 00:01:41,684
THE TURIN HORSE

5
00:01:44,188 --> 00:01:49,025
In Turin, on January 3rd, 1889,

6
00:01:49,359 --> 00:01:55,114
Friedrich Nietzsche steps out of the
door of number six Via Carlo Alberto,

7
00:01:55,449 --> 00:02:00,536
perhaps to take a stroll, perhaps to go
by the post office to collect his mail.

8
00:02:00,871 --> 00:02:04,457
Not far from him, or indeed
very far removed from him,

9
00:02:04,625 --> 00:02:08,336
a cabman is having trouble
with his stubborn horse.

10
00:02:09,004 --> 00:02:12,381
Despite all his urging,
the horse refuses to move,

11
00:02:12,633 --> 00:02:17,553
whereupon the cabman...
Giuseppe? Carlo? Ettore?

12
00:02:17,721 --> 00:02:22,391
...loses his patience
and takes his whip to it.

13
00:02:23,227 --> 00:02:25,228
Nietzsche comes up to the throng

14
00:02:25,395 --> 00:02:29,190
and puts an end to
the brutal scene of the cabman,

15
00:02:29,399 --> 00:02:31,734
who by this time is foaming with rage.

16
00:02:31,985 --> 00:02:37,198
The solidly built and full-mustached
Nietzsche suddenly jumps up to the cab

17
00:02:37,407 --> 00:02:41,494
and throws his arms around
the horse's neck, sobbing.

18
00:02:42,079 --> 00:02:44,413
His neighbor takes him home,

19
00:02:44,581 --> 00:02:48,543
where he lies still and
silent for two days on a divan

20
00:02:48,752 --> 00:02:52,171
until he mutters the obligatory last words,

21
00:02:52,923 --> 00:02:55,925
"Mutter, ich bin dumm,"

22
00:02:56,426 --> 00:03:01,055
and lives for another ten years,
gentle and demented,

23
00:03:01,265 --> 00:03:04,767
in the care of his mother and sisters.

24
00:03:05,394 --> 00:03:08,521
Of the horse, we know nothing.

25
00:07:41,670 --> 00:07:47,633
THE FIRST DAY

26
00:21:27,620 --> 00:21:29,120
It's ready.

27
00:27:35,321 --> 00:27:37,113
Go to bed.

28
00:29:18,799 --> 00:29:20,425
Hey!

29
00:29:22,219 --> 00:29:23,719
Hey, you!

30
00:29:25,931 --> 00:29:27,432
What is it?

31
00:29:28,559 --> 00:29:30,768
Can't you hear them either?

32
00:29:33,021 --> 00:29:34,397
What?

33
00:29:35,691 --> 00:29:38,526
The woodworms, they're not doing it.

34
00:29:38,902 --> 00:29:41,612
I've heard them for 58 years.

35
00:29:41,864 --> 00:29:44,157
But I don't hear them now.

36
00:29:52,166 --> 00:29:55,001
They really have stopped.

37
00:30:02,050 --> 00:30:04,427
What's it all about, papa?

38
00:30:06,722 --> 00:30:08,473
I don't know.

39
00:30:09,892 --> 00:30:11,684
Let's sleep.

40
00:30:22,988 --> 00:30:27,033
She lies back and pulls
the blanket over herself.

41
00:30:27,367 --> 00:30:29,744
Ohlsdorfer turns on his side

42
00:30:29,912 --> 00:30:32,455
and fixes his eyes on the window.

43
00:30:32,748 --> 00:30:37,335
The girl stares at the ceiling,
her father at the window.

44
00:30:38,086 --> 00:30:41,714
At times a tile can be heard
crashing down from the roof

45
00:30:41,924 --> 00:30:44,175
and shattering noisily.

46
00:30:44,843 --> 00:30:49,597
The gale roars relentlessly
around the house.

47
00:31:25,676 --> 00:31:31,639
THE SECOND DAY

48
00:42:23,458 --> 00:42:24,875
Come here!

49
00:45:15,338 --> 00:45:17,964
Can't you see she won't move?

50
00:45:36,234 --> 00:45:38,151
Stop it!

51
00:47:54,038 --> 00:47:55,580
Come here!

52
00:48:15,226 --> 00:48:16,893
Fuck!

53
00:57:03,796 --> 00:57:05,296
It's ready.

54
01:02:28,495 --> 01:02:32,164
I've run out of brandy.
Would you give me a bottle?

55
01:02:35,502 --> 01:02:37,169
Give him some...

56
01:02:39,840 --> 01:02:43,509
- Why didn't you go into town?
- The wind's blown it away.

57
01:02:44,678 --> 01:02:46,679
How come?

58
01:02:46,847 --> 01:02:48,639
It's gone to ruin.

59
01:02:51,518 --> 01:02:53,519
Why would it go to ruin?

60
01:02:57,023 --> 01:02:59,024
Because everything's in ruins,

61
01:02:59,234 --> 01:03:01,193
everything's been degraded,

62
01:03:02,070 --> 01:03:07,199
but I could say that they've
ruined and degraded everything.

63
01:03:07,701 --> 01:03:10,244
Because this is not some kind of cataclysm,

64
01:03:10,412 --> 01:03:13,497
coming about with
so-called innocent human aid.

65
01:03:13,707 --> 01:03:15,875
On the contrary...

66
01:03:16,251 --> 01:03:23,090
It's about man's own judgment,
his own judgment over his own self,

67
01:03:23,592 --> 01:03:26,343
which of course God has a big hand in,

68
01:03:26,553 --> 01:03:29,388
or, dare I say, takes part in.

69
01:03:29,890 --> 01:03:32,349
And whatever he takes part in

70
01:03:32,893 --> 01:03:38,189
is the most ghastly creation that
you can imagine.

71
01:03:39,357 --> 01:03:42,026
Because, you see,
the world has been debased.

72
01:03:42,235 --> 01:03:44,361
So it doesn't matter what I say,

73
01:03:44,529 --> 01:03:47,865
because everything has been debased
that they've acquired,

74
01:03:48,033 --> 01:03:52,578
and, since they've acquired everything
in a sneaky, underhanded fight,

75
01:03:52,746 --> 01:03:54,955
they've debased everything.

76
01:03:56,208 --> 01:03:59,752
Because whatever they touch,

77
01:03:59,920 --> 01:04:03,547
and they touch everything,
they've debased.

78
01:04:03,715 --> 01:04:08,302
This is the way it was until the final victory.
Until the triumphant end.

79
01:04:08,470 --> 01:04:10,930
Acquire, debase,

80
01:04:11,139 --> 01:04:13,265
debase, acquire.

81
01:04:13,808 --> 01:04:16,560
Or I can put it differently if you'd like,

82
01:04:16,770 --> 01:04:19,980
to touch, debase and thereby acquire,

83
01:04:20,148 --> 01:04:23,108
or touch, acquire and thereby debase.

84
01:04:23,318 --> 01:04:27,071
It's been going on like this
for centuries. On, on and on.

85
01:04:27,239 --> 01:04:31,450
This and only this,
sometimes on the sly, sometimes rudely,

86
01:04:31,660 --> 01:04:34,787
sometimes gently, sometimes brutally,

87
01:04:34,996 --> 01:04:37,790
but it has been going on and on.

88
01:04:38,750 --> 01:04:40,834
Yet only in one way,

89
01:04:41,461 --> 01:04:43,796
like a rat attacks from ambush.

90
01:04:44,464 --> 01:04:46,674
Because for this perfect victory,

91
01:04:46,841 --> 01:04:49,843
it was also essential that the other side,

92
01:04:50,011 --> 01:04:56,141
that is, everything that's excellent,
great in some way and noble,

93
01:04:56,518 --> 01:04:59,520
should not engage in any kind of fight.

94
01:04:59,938 --> 01:05:02,356
There shouldn't be any kind of struggle,

95
01:05:02,524 --> 01:05:05,025
just the sudden disappearance of one side,

96
01:05:05,277 --> 01:05:10,364
meaning the disappearance of the
excellent, the great, the noble.

97
01:05:10,532 --> 01:05:15,619
So that by now the winners who have won
by attacking from ambush rule the earth,

98
01:05:16,830 --> 01:05:19,456
and there isn't a single tiny nook

99
01:05:19,666 --> 01:05:22,543
where one can hide something from them,

100
01:05:22,877 --> 01:05:26,171
because everything they can
lay their hands on is theirs.

101
01:05:26,506 --> 01:05:30,634
Even things we think they can't reach,
but they do reach,

102
01:05:30,844 --> 01:05:32,636
are also theirs.

103
01:05:33,305 --> 01:05:36,849
The heavens are already theirs,
and theirs are all our dreams.

104
01:05:37,017 --> 01:05:39,643
Theirs is the moment, nature,

105
01:05:39,853 --> 01:05:41,729
infinite silence.

106
01:05:42,856 --> 01:05:45,399
Even immortality is theirs, you understand?

107
01:05:45,650 --> 01:05:48,402
Everything, everything is lost forever!

108
01:05:48,862 --> 01:05:50,154
And those many nobles,

109
01:05:50,363 --> 01:05:54,491
great and excellent just stood there,
if I can put it that way.

110
01:05:54,701 --> 01:05:57,494
They stopped at this point,

111
01:05:57,704 --> 01:06:00,372
and had to understand, and had to accept

112
01:06:00,540 --> 01:06:03,167
that there is neither God nor gods.

113
01:06:03,376 --> 01:06:06,712
And the excellent, the great and the noble

114
01:06:06,921 --> 01:06:11,050
had to understand and accept this
right from the beginning.

115
01:06:11,217 --> 01:06:16,221
But, of course, they were quite incapable
of understanding it.

116
01:06:16,556 --> 01:06:21,560
They believed it and accepted it
but they didn't understand it.

117
01:06:22,270 --> 01:06:25,564
They just stood there, bewildered,
but not resigned,

118
01:06:25,732 --> 01:06:29,401
until something, that flash on the mind,

119
01:06:29,611 --> 01:06:31,695
finally enlightened them.

120
01:06:32,197 --> 01:06:37,910
And all at once they realized
that there is neither God nor gods.

121
01:06:38,370 --> 01:06:41,705
All at once they saw that
there is neither good nor bad.

122
01:06:41,915 --> 01:06:44,041
Then they saw and understood that,

123
01:06:44,250 --> 01:06:45,793
if this was so,

124
01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:49,088
then they themselves did not exist either!

125
01:06:49,255 --> 01:06:50,756
You see,

126
01:06:50,924 --> 01:06:55,219
I reckon this may have been
the moment when we can say that

127
01:06:55,387 --> 01:06:58,597
they were extinguished, they burnt out.

128
01:06:58,807 --> 01:07:00,724
Extinguished and burnt out

129
01:07:00,934 --> 01:07:03,811
like the fire left to smolder in the meadow.

130
01:07:04,270 --> 01:07:06,730
One was the constant loser,

131
01:07:06,981 --> 01:07:09,441
the other was the constant victor.

132
01:07:09,651 --> 01:07:11,985
Defeat, victory,

133
01:07:12,237 --> 01:07:14,613
defeat, victory.

134
01:07:15,281 --> 01:07:19,284
And one day, here in the neighborhood,

135
01:07:20,120 --> 01:07:22,162
I had to realize,

136
01:07:23,248 --> 01:07:26,834
and I did realize, that I was mistaken,

137
01:07:27,001 --> 01:07:29,795
I was truly mistaken when I thought

138
01:07:30,130 --> 01:07:31,922
that there had never been

139
01:07:32,090 --> 01:07:36,009
and could never be any kind of
change here on earth.

140
01:07:36,177 --> 01:07:38,804
Because, believe me, I know now

141
01:07:39,139 --> 01:07:42,808
that this change has indeed taken place.

142
01:07:45,270 --> 01:07:47,938
Come off it! That's rubbish!

143
01:09:51,271 --> 01:09:57,234
THE THIRD DAY

144
01:21:04,777 --> 01:21:06,277
Coat!

145
01:24:15,426 --> 01:24:16,926
She's not eating!

146
01:24:20,180 --> 01:24:21,806
She will.

147
01:24:26,270 --> 01:24:27,812
Eat!

148
01:24:29,982 --> 01:24:32,024
You have to eat!

149
01:29:20,188 --> 01:29:21,522
What's that?

150
01:29:22,190 --> 01:29:23,399
What's happening?

151
01:29:24,526 --> 01:29:26,444
A cart's approaching.

152
01:29:28,530 --> 01:29:29,905
Who are they?

153
01:29:34,202 --> 01:29:36,370
Gypsies, I think.

154
01:29:38,040 --> 01:29:40,207
What the fuck do they want here?

155
01:29:46,256 --> 01:29:48,799
I don't know but they're coming this way!

156
01:29:49,634 --> 01:29:52,094
The stinking rotten bastards!

157
01:30:01,813 --> 01:30:03,439
What shall we do?

158
01:30:04,191 --> 01:30:06,233
Go and chase them away!

159
01:30:08,570 --> 01:30:10,029
What are you waiting for?

160
01:30:10,363 --> 01:30:12,114
Get moving!

161
01:30:58,995 --> 01:31:01,122
There's water here!

162
01:31:01,957 --> 01:31:05,334
Come and help!

163
01:31:14,344 --> 01:31:16,470
Come and help, papa!

164
01:31:19,891 --> 01:31:22,893
Come on, hey! Come and drink!

165
01:31:23,270 --> 01:31:24,895
Hold the horse.

166
01:31:27,107 --> 01:31:28,816
Look.

167
01:31:32,154 --> 01:31:34,613
Here comes the girl. Here's the girl.

168
01:31:34,823 --> 01:31:36,991
Her eyes are like the devil's.

169
01:31:37,159 --> 01:31:39,660
Get away from here! Go away!

170
01:31:39,870 --> 01:31:41,537
What are you doing here?

171
01:31:41,746 --> 01:31:42,955
Get away from here!

172
01:31:43,123 --> 01:31:44,206
Come here.

173
01:31:44,291 --> 01:31:46,083
- Come with us.
- I won't.

174
01:31:46,376 --> 01:31:47,835
I'm not going anywhere.

175
01:31:48,003 --> 01:31:50,045
Come with us to America.

176
01:31:50,255 --> 01:31:51,797
Are you deaf? Let me go!

177
01:31:52,007 --> 01:31:53,716
I'm not going with you!

178
01:31:56,928 --> 01:31:58,345
God forbid.

179
01:31:58,513 --> 01:32:00,306
Come here.

180
01:32:00,473 --> 01:32:02,224
I don't care.

181
01:32:02,767 --> 01:32:04,476
Let go!

182
01:32:04,769 --> 01:32:09,190
Fuck you sons of bitches!
Get the hell out of here!

183
01:32:09,691 --> 01:32:13,068
I'll rip your guts out, for fuck's sake!

184
01:32:13,320 --> 01:32:15,779
Dirty rotten Gypsies!

185
01:32:18,491 --> 01:32:20,868
This is for the water.

186
01:32:21,536 --> 01:32:23,746
He'll kill me! Papa!

187
01:32:23,955 --> 01:32:26,540
Papa! Come on!

188
01:32:31,213 --> 01:32:34,632
Just come over here, you worm!

189
01:32:35,133 --> 01:32:38,719
We'll be back!

190
01:32:38,929 --> 01:32:42,723
The water is ours! The earth is ours!

191
01:32:50,357 --> 01:32:52,066
You're weak! You're weak!

192
01:32:52,317 --> 01:32:56,278
Drop dead! Drop dead!

193
01:34:49,893 --> 01:34:51,393
One.

194
01:34:52,562 --> 01:34:56,857
Since in holy places

195
01:34:57,484 --> 01:35:04,156
only those things are allowed,

196
01:35:05,283 --> 01:35:09,536
the practice of which

197
01:35:09,621 --> 01:35:12,915
serves

198
01:35:14,250 --> 01:35:20,964
the veneration of the Lord,

199
01:35:22,133 --> 01:35:28,347
and everything is forbidden

200
01:35:29,099 --> 01:35:34,937
that is not fitted for

201
01:35:35,313 --> 01:35:41,360
the holiness of the place,

202
01:35:42,195 --> 01:35:44,905
and since

203
01:35:45,115 --> 01:35:50,202
holy places have

204
01:35:50,286 --> 01:35:56,208
been violated

205
01:35:56,876 --> 01:36:03,882
by the great injustice of actions

206
01:36:04,592 --> 01:36:08,929
that have taken place

207
01:36:09,013 --> 01:36:13,851
within them

208
01:36:15,311 --> 01:36:22,317
that scandalize the congregation,

209
01:36:24,070 --> 01:36:27,781
for this very same reason

210
01:36:28,158 --> 01:36:35,038
no service unto the Lord

211
01:36:36,249 --> 01:36:40,127
can be held there until,

212
01:36:40,378 --> 01:36:45,340
through a ceremony

213
01:36:45,425 --> 01:36:47,926
of penitence,

214
01:36:48,803 --> 01:36:55,726
these aforementioned injustices

215
01:36:56,728 --> 01:37:01,482
have been put to rights.

216
01:37:02,650 --> 01:37:09,656
The bishop says

217
01:37:10,909 --> 01:37:16,121
to the congregation,

218
01:37:16,498 --> 01:37:23,462
"The Lord was with you!

219
01:37:24,964 --> 01:37:31,970
"Morning will become night,

220
01:37:34,307 --> 01:37:39,102
"night will be at an end..."

221
01:37:39,437 --> 01:37:43,190
The storm continues to rage outside,

222
01:37:44,067 --> 01:37:48,612
the wind still sweeps relentlessly
across the land from the same direction,

223
01:37:48,821 --> 01:37:54,034
but now there is nothing
in its path to obstruct it.

224
01:37:54,577 --> 01:37:58,956
Only a great cloud of dust
whipped up by the wind

225
01:37:59,165 --> 01:38:02,292
rushes recklessly forward,

226
01:38:02,502 --> 01:38:04,878
bone-dry dust and the ravaging nothing

227
01:38:05,046 --> 01:38:09,049
that the wind rolls before it
as it rages unbridled

228
01:38:09,509 --> 01:38:12,302
over the barren land.

229
01:38:30,280 --> 01:38:36,159
THE FOURTH DAY

230
01:40:53,965 --> 01:40:55,882
- Come!
- What is it?

231
01:40:56,801 --> 01:40:59,511
- Come quick!
- What's wrong?

232
01:40:59,929 --> 01:41:01,596
The well!

233
01:41:48,311 --> 01:41:49,561
Fuck!

234
01:42:07,747 --> 01:42:09,039
Cover it!

235
01:42:58,589 --> 01:43:00,090
And the brandy?

236
01:44:45,863 --> 01:44:47,530
Why didn't you eat?

237
01:45:09,220 --> 01:45:11,179
You're not going anywhere...

238
01:48:10,276 --> 01:48:11,401
Drink!

239
01:48:12,611 --> 01:48:15,071
At least drink a little water!

240
01:48:17,616 --> 01:48:19,033
Drink!

241
01:48:23,414 --> 01:48:24,873
For my sake!

242
01:50:56,233 --> 01:50:59,736
Pack up clothes, dishes, needle
and thread, things like that.

243
01:50:59,903 --> 01:51:01,029
What for?

244
01:51:01,196 --> 01:51:03,072
We're not staying here. Pack!

245
01:52:27,616 --> 01:52:29,117
Blankets, brandy.

246
01:52:51,849 --> 01:52:53,057
Brandy!

247
01:53:08,407 --> 01:53:09,657
Potatoes, too.

248
01:53:32,055 --> 01:53:33,389
Get the handcart.

249
01:56:30,275 --> 01:56:31,609
Come on!

250
02:08:34,916 --> 02:08:40,879
THE FIFTH DAY

251
02:21:19,638 --> 02:21:21,389
What's this darkness?

252
02:21:28,480 --> 02:21:30,398
Light the lamps!

253
02:21:33,193 --> 02:21:35,027
Fuck!

254
02:26:09,177 --> 02:26:11,512
Why didn't you fill it up?

255
02:26:12,013 --> 02:26:13,931
It's full.

256
02:26:41,543 --> 02:26:43,335
Bring some embers!

257
02:27:22,876 --> 02:27:24,752
What is all this?

258
02:27:25,337 --> 02:27:27,087
I don't know.

259
02:27:27,756 --> 02:27:29,548
Let's go to bed.

260
02:27:38,725 --> 02:27:41,185
Even the embers went out.

261
02:27:55,283 --> 02:27:57,701
Tomorrow, we'll try again.

262
02:28:18,598 --> 02:28:23,227
We can hear them groping their way
to their beds,

263
02:28:23,937 --> 02:28:25,980
we can hear them lying down,

264
02:28:26,231 --> 02:28:29,066
and pulling the blankets over them.

265
02:28:30,151 --> 02:28:32,653
We can hear them breathing,

266
02:28:33,405 --> 02:28:35,990
only their breathing can we hear.

267
02:28:37,826 --> 02:28:41,996
Dead silence outside, the storm is over.

268
02:28:42,664 --> 02:28:46,166
Dead silence falls on the house, too.

269
02:28:49,671 --> 02:28:55,009
THE SIXTH DAY

270
02:30:24,683 --> 02:30:26,225
Eat.

271
02:30:50,625 --> 02:30:52,459
We have to eat.
