Aro Tolbukhin was born in 1940,
:52:10
in Cégled, a small town
near Budapest.
:52:14
Along with his twin sister,
he grew up
:52:17
in a wealthy rural family
:52:19
of Bulgarian origins.
:52:21
His father was
a promising young doctor.
:52:24
He fell in love with Sophia Gaal.
:52:27
They married a few years later.
:52:29
This happy period
was interrupted
:52:32
by the birth of the twins.
:52:36
After our birth,
mother was Ieft disabIed.
:52:41
She couIdn't do anything.
:52:43
She was aIways in bed.
:52:46
Our father was so strict
that he wouIdn't Iet us see her.
:52:51
Not us, nor the rest of the
famiIy, who never visited again.
:52:56
Our father went a IittIe
out of his head.
:53:00
You know what I mean?
:53:04
He took care of her,
:53:06
fed her.
:53:09
We were raised by a nanny.
:53:12
She came to breast feed us
:53:14
and then stayed on.
:53:18
She taught us to pray.
:53:23
The chiIdren were aImost identicaI,
:53:27
apart from their voices.
:53:29
She had a beautifuI voice.
:53:32
She started to pIay the piano
at a very young age.
:53:34
But Aro's voice wasn't cIear.
:53:38
He began to sing and
pIay the piano much Iater.
:53:41
He had been born with
one finger missing.
:53:48
Didn't your mother
take care of you?
:53:51
She was aIways in her room.
:53:53
My father kept it Iocked.
:53:57
Didn't you ever see her?
