He would tell her she was pretty...
1:09:04
...when in truth
she was not so pretty.

1:09:08
I was older, so Mama thought
he should marry me instead.

1:09:13
But he was in love.
1:09:15
She says your grandfather
was in love with Augustine.

1:09:18
They were married on her name day.

When we were kids,
my sister, Safran and I...

1:09:26
...played kissing games
behind the trees.

1:09:30
I can still remember
how I felt.

1:09:33
It was a little like flying.
1:09:36
Tell him.
1:09:39
She remembers kissing
your grandfather...

1:09:42
...and she flew a little.
1:09:45
What is your name?
1:10:01
This is Baruch...
1:10:05
...in front of the library.
1:10:07
He used to sit there
all day long.

1:10:10
He took out more books
than anyone in the shtetl...

1:10:14
...and he could not even read!
1:10:16
He said
he liked to think about the books...

1:10:19
...think about them
without reading them.

1:10:22
He would always walk around
with a book under his arm.

1:10:25
"Nonsense!"
Mama would say.

1:10:29
They said he was insane.
1:10:35
We had this in common.
1:10:38
Leave us.
1:10:45
Leave us alone.
