ICEBREAKER
THE ANTARTIC - MARCH 1985
Leningrad. Attn: Pichugin. Polar Division Chief.
Freight delivered to Rousskaya polar station.
Polar explorers picked up.
Difficult ice conditions impede our progress.
The wind is at 15-17 m/s, with gusts up to 20-25 m/s.
Sleet showers.
Taking measures to reach open water ASAP.
Captain Petrov.
- Here we are! Come on in, guys. - Borya, you feel at home here, eh?
Come in.
Mighty polar explorers out there are nothing else than penguins in here.
- Welcome to your cages. - Then the seamen are shags, right?
- Dyusha, come back! - Lev, what's going on? Get him!
- Dyusha, stop! - We're going to warm up now.
Guys, today is a movie day. We've got "The Diamond Arm".
- Who is coming with me? - No way.
Let's go, guys.
Come on!
Heave up handsomely!
Level out the left side! Tolya, nice and easy!
Engine room, power up!
Aye aye.
Up to 900.
Aye aye.
Dyusha, wait!
Wait, I am...
Dyusha, halt!
I am sorry. He'll never do that again.
Dyusha! Dyusha!
Check in to pawnshops and flea markets.
Try to attract their attention.
Naturally, you'll bear expenses. Here is some money for you.
- No! - A pack of money!
Please, be a pro. 500 roubles.
- Senya, come on. - Take the money!
- No!
What's wrong with your head?
- Dyusha! - Look at him!
- Dyusha! Where are you going? - Stay, I am telling you!
Lev, please!
- You looked just like him yesterday. - Got it!
- Semyon Semyonovich! - Semyon Semyonovich!
Dyusha!
MIKHAIL GROMOV
Pull back the ropes!
Hold them tight!
Who brought this dog here?
- Get out of here! Shoo! - Take the dog away!
Where are you going?
No walking under a suspended load!
- Get out of here! - Let me through!
- Tolya, damn you, hold it! - Hold it tight!
Stay away!
- Is everyone ok? - Shit!
Who the hell is up there? Can't you see he's jerking the winch?
My bad, Comrade Captain! The dog...
came in our way.
Replace the torn ropes and fix the backropes to the left rail.
He should not be doing it.
You mean pulling the ropes?
No problem about that. In fact, it's good he went for it.
However, he should not have fixed the load.
The captain who does all the rigging means what?
What?
"What?"
That he can't keep the distance from his crew.
- Got it. - I give you 30 minutes!
- I will come and check it. - Aye aye.
No way. They taught me that a sailor should be afraid of his captain.
When he sees his captain, a sailor must...
-...tremble! - Comrade First Mate.
- What is it? - We've got an iceberg dead ahead.
Captain to the bridge. It's urgent.
Dyusha!
- Have you seen Dyusha? - No!
Nikolayevich we've got an iceberg dead ahead. It's 5 cable's lengths away.
We'll skirt it on the left side.
Dyusha!
Dyusha, you just tell me. Can't you understand plain Russian?
- Left 20 degrees rudder. - Left 20 degrees rudder. Aye aye.
Dudes, we've got an iceberg dead ahead!
Holy cow.
- Comrade Captain, it's flipping over. - I can see that.
- Stop the engines! - Stop the engines! Aye aye.
- Stop her. - Aye aye.
Holy shit, Semyon Semyonovich!
Stand from under it!
Dyusha!
Get out of there!
Fuck!
Man overboard! Alarm! Man overboard!
I thought something bad has happened. Feel my heart beating.
Can you feel it?
Hang out a rope-ladder! Throw the ropes!
Andrei, we can't stay. It's coming at us.
I say we stay put.
Comrade Captain, awaiting your orders?
- Rope a man down. - Aye aye, Captain!
- How could tha happen! - Boatswain!
Rope Tsymbalisty down to help the man up.
Petrov, what the hell are you doing? It is one man overboard
versus 70 people on board. We'll end up in prision.
Are you afraid of drowning or going to prision?
You will remember my words when they drag us to court.
You will, Petrov. Remember this.
Bridge calling Engine room. Swith to maneuvering mode.
Half astern.
Switched to maneuvering.
You swin over here! You swin over here!
- Full astern, stop left engine - Aye aye. Rudder amidships.
Rudder amidships. Aye aye.
Clear the deck! Move it! What are you waiting for?
Clear the deck!
- Rudder amidships. Meet her. - Meet her. Aye aye.
- Meet her! - Meet her! Aye aye.
- Steady as you go! - Steady as I go. Aye aye.
Engine room, power up.
That's too much!
That's your medicine.
Comrades, what can I say?
I don't want to say anything now.
You know, Lev was... He was a very good person.
Let's drink to his memory.
Open up your mouth.
Stick out your tongue.
It looks good.
We went a bit too far with the alcohol, thought.
And it could have been worse.
He lost his voice. But it will come back.
I hope it will.
- Can yoy say "A". - A...
- And now "O". - O.
We definitely went a bit too far.
Andrei?
You locked the door, didn't you?
I came here to report the damage.
First, we have starboard bulwark stanchion dinged up.
Points 25-43.
Then we've got a dent in the plating. But this is not a big deal.
There's something worse.
The radar antenna is broken.
Keeping silent?
As you wish.
I wonder if you saved this polar explorer of yours, Petrov?
How is he doing?
- He is locked up in his cabin. - I see.
I think we should report it to Leningrad.
- What exactly? - Everything.
Captain Petrov despite the objections of the crew ...
- You mean us? - Right. Us and everyone else.
He took a decision, which periled the safety of the vessel.
As a result, a sailor was killed and we suffered damage.
They should send in investigators.
Ask them to bring some poison, too.
Why?
We've got a rat on board and it makes me sick.
It's absolutely restless.
Comrade Bannik, I think you said that the captain was unfit.
He can't keep his distance. Remember?
I do.
He can't keep his distance.
You are good. You will go a long way.
I will definitely go...
and report it to the authorities.
My dad is a captain.
The ship is so beautiful!
May I hang the picture?
Sure.
You can go and play in the hallway.
MIKHAIL GROMOV
Fedka, come play with Pavlik.
Lyuda.
Lyuda, this...
is why I came.
Is your husband off to sea?
They will stand in Australian ports, won't they?
Did you ask him to buy pantyhose?
That's ok, Lyuda.
- I got it. - Nina!
Nina!
You know, anyone can take my iron.
On this floor or on the upper one.
Nina, we are going to get divorced.
- How come? - Yes, we are.
Lyuda.
Comrades.
Sorry, but I make this announcement right now.
We received a message from Leningrad.
Anatoly Kirillovich.
- Yes? - Will you read it loud?
- Why me? - Please, do.
Weird.
Radio Message.
"Due to the inadmissible management errors"
"Captain Petrov has been dismissed from his position."
"By this order, we appoint an acting captain..."
"Anatoliy Yeremeev..."
Keep reading.
"until the arrival of Captain Sevchenko"
"within 3 weeks."
Take charge of the ship, Comrade Yeremeev.
Let's have some lunch now.
Are you a trainee?
No.
It's my third flight.
Try not to tear off the wheel.
Ah, you are talking about my hands. It's always the same with me.
My brain is overactive. I am thinking too much.
Mostly about the generations to come.
What?
What a great loss they will suffer if we crash now.
- Are we going to crash? - No, I'm a good pilot.
I am just speculating.
Of course, a dead captain is a great loss for the Soviet nation.
But the people will cry for me, too. Especially if they find my diary.
I'm as good as Tsoi.
Have you heard about Tsoi?
Is he a pilot?
No.
He is from "Kino".
- Or "The Movie" in English. - Which one?
Watch where you are flying!
He is a poet.
And a very talented one. Like myself.
- Do you want to listen to my poems? - No.
Come on. Kids will most probably study them at school.
Love... is not my thing.
I am better suited for war.
To fight and to win...
OFF.
Are you playing again?
They published winning algorithms in the Science and Life magazine.
But I thought that using them would not be fair.
- I have to do it myself. - Get busy!
I can see a chopper.
Wow, what a behemoth of a ship!
Gromov, this is 27-200.
I can see you. Inbound for landing.
Nikolayevich! Nikolayevich, wait!
I made an Ossetian pie for you.
- It is still hot. - Thank you, Timur.
Godspeed.
Good luck, Andrei.
Mates!
Thank you for being a great team!
- Hurray to the captain! - Hurray!
Thank you!
Be careful.
CONVERTER FAILURE
Oh, shit!
Gromov, we've got smoke in the cabin!
- Get the fire extinguishers here! - Bring the fire extinguishers!
Come on, do it!
You, aluminum cucumbers farmer...
I caught fire!
Move it, jump out!
Fuck!
Comrade Captain, are you all right?
I am Acting Captain Yeremeev.
You are a shitty acting captain. What a mess!
You've got heating oil all over the deck.
Is this Captain Petrov
who nearly sank the ship?
- We had a man overboard. - Where is this man now?
- We could not rescue him. - This is what I am talking about.
Until they fix the chopper you take up a free cabin.
You will come ashore in Australia. They will wait for you there.
We are going to the bridge now.
Aye aye, Comrade Captain.
Whatch where you are going. The captain is coming!
Come here.
Why are the lamps missing here?
- Where is the electrician? - Don't try to fool me.
I used to be a First Mate too.
Take it to the captain's cabin.
- Get lost. Move it! - Aye aye!
What have you got on the chart table? What a mess! Clear the table!
What is this thing?
This thing is mine, Comrade Captain.
You should keep your things in a kit locker in your cabin, Comrade sailor.
I told you to clear the table!
From now on,
I declare war on anarchy and mess on board this ship.
Any questions?
- None. - But I have questions to ask you.
Attention: Captain Valentin Grigoryevich Sevchenko speaking.
Prepare to move forward. Full ahead!
The seamen welcome their new Captain Sevchenko V.G.
Despite all the hardships the captain reports high morale of the crew.
That means you are not the only one your ex pushed over the edge.
But they will hold him to blame if the ship gets stuck in the ice.
Are they hoping for a miracle or for good weather in the Ministry?
All they want is to cover their asses.
- They couldn't agree on simple things... - Enough of that!
You'd better make a choice.
Is it your husband or the icebreaker you are worried about?
Do you get divorced or do you campaign for your husband?
What can I do?
There's no one I can talk to.
The Ministry is going through reshuffle.
Don't worry.
Your captain will find a solution.
One way or another.
ROSS SEA 2 WEEKS LATER
- Let's back off. - Backing off. Aye aye, Captain.
Let's try and hit it again.
Flank speed ahead!
Aye aye, Captain.
Why are we moving back and forth? How long are we going to do that?
You are sick and tired of it, aren't you? Me, too.
Were it not for this piece of crap I would have been ashore long ago.
I am calling a general meeting of the crew in an our.
Kolya.
I am Kolya Kukushkin.
What's your name?
Victor?
Just like Victor Tsoi. A good name.
I won't bother you any longer.
Are you cold?
Get in from the other side.
Vitalya?
Get in, Vitalya.
Comrades.
This is what I think.
We're growing ice all the time we stand still.
We should move forward.
We are looking for detailed ideas.
- We can't get out on our own now. - Comrade Captain.
I already suggested this.
What about blowing up some barrels of fuel under the keel?
That would break the ice and clear up a waterway.
First, we should know the ice thickness.
Andrei Nikolayevich, my people will do it right away.
Or we can use the marine head.
Emptying it would free up lots of warm stuff.
It would melt the ice from underneath and...
Pops is doing his thing again, right?
He is always talking about the warm stuff.
Comrade Petrov.
Please, leave the state cabin.
This is a general meeting of the crew and you are no longer a member.
You keep me waiting.
Pardon my jumping in,
but Andrei Nikolayevich is not at all a greenhorn.
- So... - Please, sit down.
I am the only captain here.
If you've got any questions or suggestions I am all ears.
Any questions or suggestions?
None.
Then listen to me, comrades. We're not going to blow up any barrels.
Our lives will probably depend on this fuel in a short while.
To cut it short, we don't fool around.
And we wait for an order from Moscow.
- You got it? - Yes.
The meeting is adjourned. All dismissed.
Comrade Captain, May I talk to you?
There's something I want to tell you.
I don't think the crew should know it.
An iceberg may be following us. It's 100 meters high above the water.
We nicknamed it Semyon Semyonovich.
It may drift away with the currents.
But we can't use radars to track it.
I don't think I should tell you who left us blind.
I think we should look for an way out together.
I will find the way out.
And you go to your cabin and stay put there.
Or else I will place you under arrest.
Why don't you shoot me dead right away?
That's a good idea.
Guys?
Have you got any other movies? Other than "The Diamond Arm"?
It's a good one, but I want something different.
They give us one new movie per voyage.
Good it was not the First Mate's choice.
- We would've watched "Lenin in October". - No problem.
I will watch the movies at home. This is my last voyage anyway.
It is your latest voyage, not the last one.
Ah yes, the latest one. I am sorry.
I can't clearly think because of this idleness.
Vitaly, are we going to watch the movie?
Can you turn off the lights?
"Russo turisto, moral charactero. Verstehen?"
Attention: Your captain speaking.
We receveid an order from the Ministry to lie ahull.
A rescue party will arrive to help us out.
Until then we must keep absolute radio silence
and introduce stringent austerity measures.
This is the reason, we're going to cut down the rations.
The power supply to the crew quarters
will be fractioned and scheduled.
The exact schedule is to be communicated later.
You'd better save on sugar, Comrade Bannik.
Why?
They won't forget about us on the mainland.
Help will be on its way soon.
Too many offices on the mainland.
We can grow into an iceberg before they agree on anything.
I see nothing bad about that. We are getting our daily allowance.
I don't mind some delays.
The longer we stay the more they pay.
The more they pay...
You've got it all straight and clear.
Oh, yes.
I am not that universally talented.
Still I am smart enough not to shit where I sleep.
- Is that a dig at me? - Not at all.
Comrade First Mate.
I'd like to ask you something. Out of pure academic interest.
Are you ok?
Any worms of consciente eating you?
Worms?
Well...
Do you still think that ratting on the captain was a good idea?
As a result, we got a new one to enjoy ourselves with in the ice.
How dare you...
Happy first day of the drift, Comrade Yeremeev.
Leningrad - May 1985
- Hi. I'd like to see Boris Sergeyevich. - He doesn't receive visitors.
My husband is on board Mikhail Gromov.
Lady, he doesn't receive visitors.
How can you do it to me? No radio contact for 2 months.
I don't know if he is alive or not.
Look...
Look, I have the right to know the truth.
There...
All the relatives want to know the truth.
I cannot let anyone through. I've got my orders.
I see.
Hey, where are you going?
Did they let her through?
What's wrong with you?
- She needs help. - Call someone! Call on ambulance.
Andrei Nikolayevich.
Hi there, pilot. What are you doing here?
I can't sleep.
I think I heard some birds.
I see.
You'd better go and have some sleep.
I lose my inspiration in the cabin.
- What about you? - I came out to catch some fresh air.
With a flare gun?
With a flare gun.
I can help you if you want.
Yes, you can Kukushkin.
Don't tell anyone that you saw me, ok?
Go and have some sleep.
What are you looking at?
Everything is going to be all right.
You keep silent, got it?
That's ok.
Take it easy, mate.
I know this is your cabin.
I hate unwanted guests, too.
I'm sorry.
- Captain! - Comrade Captain!
Captain!
Will you keep silent and come here?
I am down here.
Camarada Captain!
Hey!
- Hey! - Quiet!
Hey!
I'm here.
Hold on, Andrei.
- Don't you fall asleep. - Move it, guys.
It's all right. He is alive.
Make way. Let's go!
Petushkov, you are dismissed.
How is he?
Well...
He's got frostnip.
First degree.
That's all I can say now. But he will recover...
in a while.
Why did you leave the ship?
I think he tried to find a way to help us out.
- Anyone knew that you decided to go? - No one.
You are lying again! Kukushkin told me everything.
Comrade Petrov. I am the one who gives orders on board.
In this is cabin I give the orders. And I order you to leave the patient alone.
Bugger!
- Just a minute, Comrade Captain. - What is it?
Ivanivch.
I've got something in my sheepskin.
In the right pocket.
A Magic Cube?
- Remember this? - So what?
I was right.
The iceberg is following us.
Would that mean that the iceberg can catch up with us?
Yes, it can, Ivanyvch.
Ok, let's do it.
May I?
We've got a rehearsal here.
I will see you on the helipad.
Anything happened?
You're playing music. That means you've got nothing else to do.
Have you fixed the chopper?
No problem, guys.
I will find you some work you are going to like.
See you by the boatswain's storage in 5 minutes.
Kukushkin, trying to dodge it?
Come on, move your ass.
There's a plane coming!
Clear the deck! Take cover!
Clear the deck! Take cover! Move it!
- Hey, Bob. - Yeah?
You see?
Seems to be a Soviet icebreaker.
Completely dead.
- Report to the base. - Okay, sir!
Wellington Tower. Wellington Tower.
Board C-1934.
On the ice a facility is detected.
Coordinates...
You should not have broken the guitar. The guys will never understand that.
Is that all?
You can keep your advice to yourself.
Let's be honest.
Do you really think they will send anyone to rescue us?
It's been 2.5 months.
You will be the last person I am going to talk,
If I ever want to discuss the orders from the Ministry.
Now you listen to me.
This expedition started later than planned
because they were screwing around in this ministry of yours.
And now the ice is 1 meter thick and we got stuck.
They would have to answer for this incompetence.
Do you really think they want any investigation?
I can bet a box of cognac that no one ever reported it to the minister.
Are you also giving this bullshit to the crew?
I am telling you. You think about it.
Go on the air.
You are an agent provocateur!
Call the Australians.
A captain can break radio silence in a critical situation.
We've got a medical checkup.
This way.
Come closer to the light.
Open the rat trap.
Closed it.
Sailor shirt up.
That's it. We are done.
Vova, why are you so angry?
Don't you get it?
Valya, have you ever thought why you have got no friends?
- Here you go again. - Why?
You are old and grey. And you've got no friends.
Or do you think everyone
is envious of your profound intellectualy?
Or your handsome face?
What the hell are you doing? You've got 70 men trapped in a tin can.
They are on the edge.
An all you can do is crack down on them.
- Captain, my ass. - How is your family doing?
What does my family have to do with that?
Nothing new.
I can't understand why they let you out to the sea with your condition.
Doctors always help each other.
And them...
Everyone has got some condition.
I prefer spending my last years out here.
What would I do ashore?
I'd rather stay here forever.
Spit the bad luck away.
Valya.
Since we are talking about it
here is what I want to ask you.
If anything bad happens to me, please drop me to the sea.
I don't want to stay in the fridge. Please.
- What are you talking about? - Just in case.
We'll go out to sea with you more than once.
You are the one who will bug me to death.
Oh, shit!
What are you waiting for? You must report to the captain!
What?
Run to the bridge! Move it!
There...
- What is it? - is water in the hold.
- Mikhalych, sound an alarm! - General alarm!
- I am going down to the hold! - Attention.
First Mate, lead the repair party to the second hold.
Bring the provisions to the upper deck.
Lady, where are you going?
Stop! I am telling you!
Text Dr. Akulov.
Stop!
Stop the car!
Roll down the window!
You have your surgery tomorrow. Did they tell you?
They did. I don't want to.
Our tests confirmed that you need a surgery.
- You can't have a baby without it! - I will!
Think about it!
You are 42 years old. You've got problems with your heart!
It's your first pregnancy. You are going to die without help.
Are you sure?
I am 90% sure!
Let's go!
- Let's go! - Wait!
Mates!
We lost everything.
No more flour.
No more cereals.
We've got just the beans left.
We'll have to cook bean mash.
The freshwater tanks are damaged.
This is bad!
Nikolayevich.
What are we going to do?
Do not ask me, Mikhalych.
It all started because of me.
- Feeling bored, Zorkin? - It's cold.
Comrade Captain?
What is it?
Petrov locked up in the radio house.
Andrei Nikolayevich, are you there?
Yes, Comrade Captain.
Why did you lock up in there? What are you doing?
I want to listen to a radio show. BBC channel.
About Rock'n'roll.
Do you know Seva Novgorodtsev?
- Sure. Everybody knows him. - That's good.
Bring me the fire axe. Move it!
- Andrei Nikolayevich, you know what? - What?
I reported to Leningrad, that we are in a critical situation.
They are so slow. They must be discussing it now.
- Bureaucrats. - Oh, yes.
Nothing will change if you report to them again.
I don't want to contact them, Valentin Grigoryevich.
Who do you want to talk to, then?
I want to go live on the air. To send a Mayday for the entire world.
Why do you want the entire world to know?
Why?
They enjoy reporting on how bad our life is.
- They would love the story. - Where is the axe?
The Soviet ship is helpless. No one wants to rescue it.
Take it.
You bastard!
Let me go, Zorkin!
Don't you worry that much.
I haven't done anything yet.
We received a radio message.
Congratulations.
We have got a permission to break radio silence.
The rescue mission is underway. Novorossiysk Icebreaker is coming.
- Are they coming? - Yes.
- Easy, easy. - Let go.
- Don't, don't... - Stop, stop... calm down!
Calm down, calm down.
Lock him up until the end of the expedition.
Let me go, Zorkin.
Son of a bitch!
And fix the door!
NOVOROSSIYSK
Hello. I am Vladimir Safonov.
- You can call me Volodya. - Lyudmila Petrova. I am a journalist.
I know who you are.
- Did you meet the crew? - Not yet.
No problem. I am going to introduce you.
Watch your step.
You probably want to ask me many questions.
Not a single one.
You submitted a request to your editor-in-chief and then to my office.
You asked to relieve you of this mission.
Do you want to know why we kept you here?
A KGB order is more than enough for me.
I'd rather take some pictures now. I will have to send my report tonight.
Of course.
See you later.
ROSS SEA - DAY 79
Is that all?
The situation is critical. We are on a diet now.
Have you got anything delicious? I'm sick and tired of this shitty soup.
I wish Novorossiysk arrived soon.
You should not lay high hopes on it.
I served on board Novorossiysk.
It's not that powerful. I'm not sure it can go across the 40's.
The weather is too stormy there now.
Oh, Lyuda.
I came here to talk to you.
Did your son draw this picture?
Very good.
Lyuda, I am sorry if I pry into your private life.
I just can't get it why you want
to divorce your husband.
He drinks, he beats me, and he cheats on me.
I am not sure about that.
I doubt.
Then I fell in love with another man. Does that work better for you?
They told me in the Registry office that the employees were so moved
when you applied to get married.
Why are you asking me all that?
Lyuda.
Dear Lyuda.
Don't misunderstand me.
I want to help you.
- Obviously. - Why are you saying that?
Petrov love you, and you love him, too.
But...
The future you can have with him...
is not the one you wish for your kid.
I am sorry.
But there are other options.
There are other options.
You are listening to the Voice of America from Washington.
This is Human Rights radio show
with Vera Spasskaya.
The Soviet Union is currently going through certain transformations...
What the hell is that?
Dudes, what are you doing over there?
- What is going on? - We could hardly catch him.
Are you nuts?
I can't bear it any longer.
I am going to die on this frozen behemoth.
- Got it? - That's ok.
Let him go. Where do you think you were going?
As far away from you as possible.
Sorry but we can't agree to that.
No problem if you want to die.
- But, wait till I am off duty. - Exactly.
Fuck it all.
Fuck your drifting and your icebreaker
and the ice!
Fuck this!
Fuck this icebreaker!
- Fuck it! - Calm down!
- Fuck you! - Kukushkin!
You go all...
- Kukushkin, stop it! - Get out of here.
Get out of the cockpit!
It's working!
Come in.
Valentin Grigoryevich,
we fixed...
the chopper.
It's...
working!
Dismissed.
125.
126.
Come on, come on. 127! He is about to set a new record.
- Who is the next? - I am!
What are you doing here? Are you nuts?
The power supply is rationed.
I am telling you!
Vitalya!
Don't!
- Are you ok? - Comrades.
Let's keep it cool.
- We are in the same boat. - So to speak.
Today is his birthday.
He exhausted his health on this ship.
Happy birthday.
I am all for it.
But we've got an order from the captain.
We spend fuel for heating purposes only.
I am sorry. I am not a seaman. But I understand that we
cannot sit tight and wait for God knows what.
We must do something. We suggested blowing up fuel
- and freeing up the ship. - You are telling me!
He could at least send out an ice recon mission. I said to him:
"Valentin Grigoryevich, we fixed the chopper."
Did he say anything? Not a single word.
- He was reflecting on something. - He is an ex-military idiot.
If he gets an order to break his neck he will do so.
Should we just get rid of this captain?
We'll do as agreed.
Come in.
What a nice looking cabin our captain has got!
I have served 5 years on board this ship but I have never been here before.
I think you are also entitled to better grub to enjoy yourself in the drift.
Comrade Captain, you are under arrest.
It's simply luxurious.
The man is a black profiteer.
Does it sell well?
Easy.
What a mess you have here, Comrade Captain.
Is that all?
- Who has got a flare gun? - I have it.
Don't let him move.
Let's go.
You see, Rubik's Cube?
I will always win one way or another.
Here we are!
Look at that!
It looks brand new.
Comrade Bannik.
Order the engine room to get ready to start the engines.
Is this the Captain's order?
Mikhalych, all of us are...
You shouldn't ask questions.
An order from the First Mate is enough.
I have been very curious since I was a kid.
Comrade First Mate, you do it.
May I?
Engine room.
- Prepare to start the 4 main engines. - They decided to move.
- And we'll move foward. - Prepare 4 main engines. Aye aye.
Kostya!
Here we are.
Oh, man.
Ready all!
Come on, take over!
What's going on here?
Dudes! Borya! What's happening?
Borya, what's going on?
- We'll do it. - But this is not authorized.
Comrade Captain, may I ask you a question?
You know, I'm not used to talk with armed people.
All right, ask your question.
Is that true that you had 12 people frozen to death
on the ship you served before because you run out of fuel?
- Who is it? - Petrov. Are you all right?
Andrei Nikolayevich?
I thought you would come sooner.
Did you think you'd get lonely in the dock?
You want to take the entire crew along.
Valentin Grigoryevich, I know that you don't like me.
But you are no rock star either.
Let's try and stop the crew before they burn the fuel.
Did you stir up a mutiny?
Take the gun away. You are making things worse.
I will get an award for shooting you.
Valentin Grigoryevich.
He didn't stir up anything. We did it on our own.
- Did they start the main engines? - They did.
Idiots!
Dudes! Dudes, we did it! We'll reach open water soon.
You have got some canned fish left. Bring it here.
- How come? - The guys are going to blow up the ice!
Hey, wait! Don't touch it!
- What the hell are you doing? - Get out of here!
What the hell are you doing?
We are starting to move. Let's celebrate.
First, we go to the open water, then we'll eat canned fish.
What are you doing?
What are you doing? Dudes! The Ossetians are attacking.
- Let's go! - Move!
What's going on here?
- Engine room, full ahead! - Full ahead. Aye, sir.
Get away from the EOT!
I am telling you to get away from the EOT!
- It's going to detonate any moment. - Run!
- Dudes, what are doing? - Run, Ivanych!
- Stop the main engines! - Engine room, stop the main engines!
- Ivanych, are you ok? - Is he alive?
Stop it! What the hell are you doing, mates?
Mates!
Mates, what are you doing?
Mates, the doctor was killed.
Mates! The doctor was killed.
What do you mean?
Take him away.
It's all different now, Lyudmila.
Your husband will be held responsible for the death of his sailor
and damage to the ship.
But, technically, he can avoid the trouble.
If he pleads guilty to incompetent ship handling,
and unnecessary drifting.
I think his contract will be terminated. But that would all.
I know it is quite an unpleasant situation.
But, believe me,
you will smile thinking about it
in your new apartment in Leningrad.
No.
Then let me put it straight.
Look here.
Do you think I'm just kidding?
You don't have much of a choice.
Either he pleads guilty or this will be the end of you both.
Got it?
Valentin Grigoryevich!
Are you sure, we shouldn't take him home?
He is home now.
Let's do it.
The uniform does become you, Anatoliy Kirillovich.
It's so beautiful ou here.
It really is.
Are you sure, you want do do it?
Don't you want to see what happens next?
It will happen without me.
I can go to the sea bottom here.
Or I can go to prison at home.
What a great crew we had!
And now...
both the First Mate and the Captain are two pieces of shit.
Good if they really are.
What?
Shit floats, Tolya.
DAY 133 We cut down heating.
No lights and electrical appliances.
But even if we do that
we will have enough fuel maximum for 3 days.
If Novorossiysk doesn't bring fuel
we are going to freeze to death.
They should make it.
What are you going to do with me?
We will place you under arrest.
Then place everyone else under arrest, too.
That would be fair.
Look. Dyusha.
- What is it? What's wrong? - What is he saying.
I don't get it. What is it?
- A plane? - No, that's something different.
Anything wrong on the deck?
- Enough hypothesizing. - Is Novorossiysk here?
Holy shit.
It's going right our way.
Keep calm.
This is our chance to survive.
Valentin Grigoryevich.
How come?
Do you want to go down the crack?
How can we go down the crack?
The underwater part of the iceberg will be too close.
You want to go in the eye of a needle?
Have you got better ideas?
We've got too little fuel.
We'll start the engines at the very last moment.
If the iceberg cracks the ice field over there, we can give it a try.
I'll take the chopper and look for the best way to skirt it.
I will go.
- Kukushkin, do you mind? - No, Comrade Captain!
- Prepare the chopper. - Can you help me?
Assume the command while I am away.
Thank you for putting trust in me.
I am doing it out of dispair rather than trust.
I am not finished with you.
Well,
I am awaiting your orders,
Captain.
This is 27-200. I am off the ground.
Gromov.
I see a passage in the ice field at 120 to the left.
- Get closer. - Aye aye.
Are you scared?
I am.
You have every reason to be.
Gromov.
There is an ice hole to the right of the iceberg.
The speed of the iceberg may be an issue.
- This behemoth is moving at 2 knots. - Copy.
The ice field is cracking. Prepare to start the engines.
Feeling bored, Comrade First Mate?
Tell Pops to start the engines.
Bridge calling Engine room. Start the 4 main engines.
An order from the captain.
Let's do it.
- What's wrong with her? - She felt bad in the street.
- No diagnosis yet. - I know her.
- I warned you? - Send an intern to help me deliver.
Let's go.
I know you are a professor. If I can't make it,
you'll get into trouble.
- Where is your husband? - He is a seaman.
They are drifting in the Artic now.
We want his contact details.
I got it.
You want to know who will take my body.
You'd better keep silent now.
Gromov, the ice field is much thinner behind the iceberg.
Comrade Captain.
May I ask you a question?
Go ahead.
Aren't you scared, too?
I am.
I am very scared.
My son will be born soon.
Mikhalych, go to the foredeck! Report the distance to the iceberg.
Aye aye.
- Go down this crack. - Go down the crack. Aye, Captain.
- Tolya, go to the EOT. - Aye, Captain.
We are 30 meters away from the iceberg.
20 meters.
10 meters away!
- Right standard rudder. - Right engine in reverse.
Stand from under!
Flank speed astern! Steady!
Take cover!
Come on, my dearest!
Holly shit!
Is everyone ok?
- Tolya, sound an alarm. - Aye aye.
General alarm!
To look sectors!
We did it. Oh, man.
I think we did it. Did we?
- Did we? - We did it.
Comrade Captain,
I am trembling.
Gromov, we are coming back. Inbound for landing.
I am ready.
- We can start. - Where is your intern?
- I will deliver your baby. - Thank you.
Anaesthetizing.
The crosswind is too strong.
It is carrying us to the iceberg.
Kukushkin, keep it steady!
Oh, shit!
- We're going crash in the iceberg! - Keep it steady!
Gromov calling 27-200. Do you copy?
- 27-200! Kukushkin! - Probably, their radio is down.
Try to locate their radio beacon.
Aye aye, Captain.
They are here, behind the iceberg.
It's dragging them along.
Gromov!
Gromov, do you copy? Novorossiysk calling.
Petrov here!
Call your captain. Where is Sevchenko?
I am his replacement!
Are you all nuts over there?
Captain Sevchenko and the chopper pilot crashed close to the iceberg.
We need your chopper. How quick can you arrive?
I won't talk to anyone other than the captain.
You are dismissed, Comrade Petrov.
And I am not going to...
I am sorry.
Manugarov here.
Andrei Nikolayevich, it will take us at least 2 hours to come over.
It will be too late. We'll try rescue them on our own.
Godspeed, dudes.
What do you mean "on our own"?
The iceberg is falling apart there.
Comrade Captain.
If you save Sevchenko
he will prosecute us for the mutiny. You, too.
Get back to the helm.
To the helm. Aye aye, Captain.
We don't even know if they are alive.
They are our captain and our pilot, Comrade First Mate.
We are going to rescue them. Any objections?
- None. - Turn us around.
Full speed ahead. Left engine in reverse.
- Put somebody on lookout at the bow. - Aye, Captain.
Engine room, engines at 800!
He would never risk his ship for no reason.
It's not his ship.
Another captain was put in charge there.
Your husband is allegedly trying to save him now.
Can I talk to my husband?
Is this why you called me?
And keep in mind the things we discussed a while ago.
Here is Gromov, Petrov speaking.
Petrov here.
Do you copy?
Petrov.
- Petrov, can you hear me? - Lyuda?
I am on board Novorossiysk.
What are you doing there?
I... hate you here.
Why can't you live like others?
You always swim against the current.
- And what have you got? - We never look up to others.
You know it.
I'm tired.
I love you.
Saves whomever you have to save. And don't you dare drown.
I won't. I promise you.
You bitch.
You are going to rot in your communal flat.
Damn. Kolya, are you ok?
Kolya!
Are you ok?
Climb out. Come on! Move it!
I can't. My foot is stuck.
- Damn! Come on! - No, I can't!
They won't come to rescue us.
They can't go that close to the iceberg.
I will never be a poet now.
Climb out, damn you!
Come on, get up.
Valentin Grigoryevich!
Cut the umbilical cord.
She stopped breathing. Start the CPR.
Adrenaline!
Man overboard!
Grab it!
- Will you go and have some rest? - Later.
Thank you for your help, Andrei Nikolayevich!
We've got water in the second hold.
I will work on it. You are dismissed.
- Left standard rudder! - Left standard rudder! Aye, Captain!
- Flank speed ahead! - Flank speed ahead! Aye aye, Captain.
This is something for you.
I am giving it back for you to play.
You must be Valentin Grigoryevich.
- That's me. - I am Arthur Manugarov.
- I am glad you pulled through. - Can you give us fuel?
We are preparing the pipeline. You will have the fuel.
- Are you Sevchenko? - That's me. Who are you?
I will tell you later.
I will have to talk to you, but not here.
Who is he?
Oh, man.
Congratulations.
Welcome, aviator!
Did you smell our barbecue?
Why do we want this old paper?
- Did you bring it? - I did.
Read some papers.
What have we got here?
He is the new party leader. Everything has changed now.
What has he got here?
- Go to the third page. - Hey, Kukushkin.
- Andrei Nikolayevich, - Here it is.
The Pravda newspaper published your wife's article.
Look at this picture of Manugarov, Sevchenko and yourself.
And this is me.
- Look there. It's all about us. - Look.
That security guy interrogated us for a whole week.
I think they were discussing what they should do with us.
- Did they take a decision? - Definitely.
There's nothing about the mutiny here. That means Sevchenko didn't sell us out.
- Should we? - Go ahead.
Tsymbalisty. Call the captain.
Fall in!
We do as agreed.
HELLO EQUATOR!
Why did you call me? What's the reason?
We want to thank you.
For what?
For nothing selling us out.
From the entire crew.
I have a son now.
I'd better raise him than go to courts.
A son!
What is it?
My friend bought it in Sydney. Kukushkin brought it here.
Enjoy, Comrade Captain.
Thank you.
One more second.
Comrades Captains!
I am trembling!
Hurray! Hurray! Hurray!
- Well done. - I agree, Valentin Grigoryievich.
