00:00It was 1924, Karamik, and one of our grandmothers threw it away, and we had to buy a new one.
00:07It was 1924, Karamik, and one of our grandmothers threw it away, and we had to buy a new one.
00:37If you're hungry, you have to bring some food.
00:40We're always waiting.
00:41For kebabs.
00:42And for tea.
00:43And for tea, too.
00:44Will you take the second glass?
00:46Yes, I will.
00:47Then pour it for me.
00:49Good boy.
01:07I didn't choose.
01:17I asked for the unhappiest children.
01:20So they gave me those who weren't hospitable at home, those who were sick, those who didn't
01:27develop well.
01:28I got such children.
01:29I got such children.
01:30I got such children.
01:32When Janka came from vocational school, she was ill with tuberculosis.
01:37At her final stage, her father died, and she had four siblings.
01:43When she came, she was 11.
01:45She was horribly fresh.
01:48She said to me,
01:50''Madam, don't take me off, it hurts!''
01:53So she had those soft clothes on her body and head,
01:57His body was in his legs, and he couldn't take off his headscarf.
02:03I noticed that when I brought Zenek home, he put his finger in his mouth and started to wiggle.
02:09Left and right.
02:11I read his book, Zdrowie.
02:14He had terrible nausea.
02:17There was a small cell in his stomach.
02:23And his brother too.
02:25She walked around all day and left the little ones alone.
02:30I remember Gosia.
02:32When Gosia came here, the child went through a lot.
02:36She was adopted when she was little.
02:39They couldn't deal with her. Supposedly, she was causing trouble in the nursery.
02:44They sent her to work near the clinic.
02:47And there, the child didn't go to school normally,
02:51because he only saw work and work again.
02:54He was treated like an object, not like a human being.
03:03It was about 1956.
03:07The Department of Education came up with an offer
03:12to take care of four children whose mother was a widow
03:18and was going to the hospital for a while.
03:21And that's how it started.
03:23Later, after the four children, I received the children from the Department of Health.
03:27In my opinion, it was like a nursery.
03:30The children stayed for a short period of time,
03:32half a year, a year, two years, four years,
03:35and then either their mother took them or they were adopted.
03:40It worked out somehow, but it took time until Jacek was taken.
03:46I couldn't live with it.
03:48My husband even cried when I came back,
03:51because we loved Jacek very much.
03:54That's when I decided not to take any more children.
03:58The Department of Health does what it wants. I won't give them away.
04:01I'll go and see what's going on with Mika.
04:04And you, Gosia, write well, so that I know.
04:07I have to see Mika.
04:09Andrzej went this way, and Mieszek, too.
04:12I asked,
04:14Gosia, Mika, what are you doing here?
04:16I would like to hear your reading.
04:19Andrzej, too, along with Mika.
04:21He said, what are you doing here?
04:23Wait.
04:25What?
04:27Here you are, Grandma, read it to me.
04:30How does it say?
04:32What's going on here?
04:34Which point? Which is the third one?
04:36What?
04:38I don't understand. Read it.
04:40Questions
04:42and
04:44recommendations.
04:46Please repeat it.
04:48Questions and
04:50recommendations.
04:52That's right.
04:54Gosia.
04:56Wait.
04:58To save, to save,
05:00answered Pęksa.
05:02Answered? No.
05:04How does it say here?
05:06The shepherd who woke us up.
05:08If it's a feather,
05:10I won't
05:12touch it,
05:14not even a finger.
05:16Besides, you need to know
05:18that such a fire
05:20no one
05:22has ever seen.
05:24No, it's not written here.
05:26What is it?
05:28Did you get it right?
05:30He saw.
05:32It's also a dot.
05:34I saw.
05:36Did I see?
05:38What did you eat today?
05:40Why?
05:42I don't like something.
05:44But there is no list.
05:46These are jackets.
05:48Here?
05:50Good, right?
05:52I'll sign for good,
05:54and for two we have it.
05:56Miki, come on.
05:58We'll come to Janusz.
06:00I'll be right back.
06:02Come to Janusz.
06:06Where?
06:08Look.
06:10Look, son.
06:12Put it on the ground.
06:14Look.
06:16Young man, young man.
06:18Don't talk.
06:20I wouldn't say...
06:24Take it, son, for now.
06:26You can still walk.
06:28Robert, do you want these shoes?
06:30Now wait.
06:32Which one do you have written down?
06:34Paweł, five, right?
06:36So I get a raise for taking care of the children.
06:38And I make a living from it.
06:40That's how I organize it,
06:42that's how I divide it,
06:44so that it's for food,
06:46and for paying the most necessary needs.
06:48And I have to go to school a lot.
06:50Sometimes, when I think
06:52that I've already spent money this month
06:54and I don't have any,
06:56sometimes I have to put my pension in,
06:58and there are...
07:00when you go to school...
07:02I have to count quickly,
07:04because there are 14 of them now,
07:06Waldek doesn't go,
07:08so 12 of them go to school.
07:10I bought these notebooks
07:12at the beginning of the school year.
07:14It cost me 500 zlotys.
07:16Now I have to buy a pen,
07:18something for reserve,
07:20so another 500 zlotys.
07:22T-shirts, pens, markers.
07:28They are very much after their husband.
07:30Because they really love him.
07:32Because it seems to me
07:34that I should get their feelings.
07:36It's kind of stupid.
07:38But now I understand it.
07:40I understand that this love is shared,
07:42and that they,
07:44one with the father,
07:46one with me, but for the father.
07:48He only says a word to them,
07:50it's the adjutants,
07:52and they turn around him.
07:54He has these adjutants.
07:57And maybe here...
07:59Wait a minute.
08:01Hide this tissue.
08:03I noticed something here.
08:05With this geography.
08:07With this Polish language.
08:09Andrzej, Andelko.
08:13I don't know what to look at.
08:15You read it yourself.
08:17You say it's good here,
08:19but you make mistakes.
08:21It's so red,
08:23that my skin hurts.
08:25Let's move on.
08:28And you really didn't pay any attention?
08:30I didn't pay any attention.
08:32You really didn't pay any attention?
08:36Here you have...
08:38Aha, it's here.
08:40Twos, threes, twos.
08:42And again...
08:44You read the history,
08:46but you haven't corrected anything yet.
08:48We're doing it in the garden now.
08:50So what?
08:52Four, five.
08:54Physical education.
08:56You have to pay attention to the basics.
08:58Two, four.
09:00You have to correct a bit.
09:02You know what?
09:04I found out that you behave
09:06inappropriately at school.
09:08You flirt with girls.
09:10You know, with girls.
09:12No.
09:14What? Is it true?
09:16No.
09:18When I met your wife,
09:20I told her that you sit there
09:22and you don't report.
09:24Is it true or not?
09:26No.
09:28Really?
09:30Really.
09:32Who should I believe? You?
09:34What?
09:36No, I don't believe anyone.
09:38You sit there so calmly,
09:40because I've seen it a few times at home.
09:44So I don't have an explanation.
09:46I'll be talking to them
09:48for so long
09:50that I'll know what's going on.
09:52Because I want to raise them
09:54to be honest, loyal, truthful.
09:56And they'll be deceived by lies.
09:58And I have to fight with that
10:00so that they don't lie to me,
10:02so that they don't bring me
10:04things that aren't theirs from school.
10:06And at first I had
10:08such cases that
10:10someone comes to me from school
10:12and doesn't have a pen.
10:14Or he has two pens.
10:16One I look at, this one is mine,
10:18and sometimes I try
10:20to use the other one,
10:22but it's not enough.
10:24As Rysiek once said,
10:26it's worse with mum than with Belphegor.
10:28Can I believe you?
10:30What?
10:32Can you really?
10:34Well, that's good.
10:36I won!
10:38I won!
10:40I won!
10:42It was red,
10:44and something else.
10:46A wheelbarrow.
10:48It has a wheelbarrow.
10:50No, it doesn't.
11:06And I don't think
11:08I want to end my life
11:10as soon as
11:12I don't leave them all
11:14alone.
11:16But before that,
11:18I think it will be the army.
11:20To see all their uniforms,
11:22tall, handsome, elegant.
11:24Dad has been dreaming
11:26about it for I don't know how long.
11:28I don't know how much longer,
11:30but to see them with a fiancée.
11:32Then I would like to
11:34take a closer look at their lives,
11:36help them,
11:40and see
11:42my grandson or granddaughter first.
11:46Then I would like
11:48to see and wait.
