to betray


Lena Olin as Sabina

"But what is betrayal? Betrayal means breaking ranks. Betrayal means breaking ranks and going off into the unknown. Sabina knew of nothing more magnificent than going off into the unknown."

MittelEuropa(2)



Praga, Budapeste, Varsóvia todas arrancadas ao Ocidente, felizmente de volta ao seu lugar histórico.

Prague, Budapest, Warsow all thorn out from the Ocident, hopefully now back to their historic destiny.

The end



"...Mas se o homem perdeu a necessidade de poesia, será que se apercebe do seu desaparecimento ? O fim, não é uma explosão apocalíptica. Talvez não haja nada de mais tranquilo que o fim."

Milan Kundera - A arte do Romance

"...But if man lost all his need for poetry, will he be aware of his own doom ? The end is not an apocalyptic explosion. There may be nothing so quiet as the end.”
