:30:00
When I was a boy...
:30:02
...I used to sing a song
in the temple.

:30:06
A true disciple
Knows another"s woes

:30:11
As his own
:30:13
He bows to all...
:30:15
...and despises none.
:30:18
Like all other boys...
:30:20
...I sang the words...
:30:22
...not thinking what they meant
or how they might influence me.

:30:29
I've travelled so far.
:30:32
And all I've done is come back...
:30:35
...home.
:30:47
Wait a minute.
:30:49
You know what you're going to do,
don't you?

:30:50
It would have been uncivil of me...
:30:52
...to let you make
such a long trip for nothing.

:30:57
-Where are you going?
-Come.

:31:00
-Where are we going?
-Back to the ashram.

:31:03
Then to prove to the new viceroy...
:31:05
...that the king's writ
no longer runs in India.

:31:08
Salt?
:31:09
Yes, sir. He's going to march
to the sea and make salt.

:31:15
There's a royal monopoly
on the manufacture of salt.

:31:18
It's illegal to make it or sell it
without a government license.

:31:23
All right, he's breaking the law.
:31:26
What will that deprive us of?
Two rupees of salt tax?

:31:29
It's not a serious attack
on the revenue.

:31:31
Its primary importance is symbolic.
:31:34
Don't patronize me, Charles.
:31:39
In this climate, nothing lives
without water or salt.

:31:43
Our absolute control of it is
a control on the pulse of India.

:31:48
And that's the basis of
this declaration of independence?

:31:52
The day he sets off...
:31:53
...everyone is supposed to
raise the flag of "Free India."

:31:58
And then he walks some 240 miles
to the sea and makes salt.
