00:00:02,300 --> 00:00:07,050
The Institute of Contemporary Films Studio
2
00:00:09,650 --> 00:00:12,650
as part of the project
"Gorai Manor Park... 200 Years Later"
3
00:00:13,100 --> 00:00:15,500
presents
4
00:00:33,500 --> 00:00:36,550
THE RIGHT TO LIFE
5
00:00:39,155 --> 00:00:42,755
This is where the center was.
6
00:00:43,060 --> 00:00:46,533
Now men have cut all they could.
7
00:00:46,750 --> 00:00:51,422
Tree-lined alleys used to spread out
like rays from the center.
8
00:00:51,733 --> 00:00:54,622
The first alley of trees goes to the road.
9
00:00:55,550 --> 00:01:00,750
Two years ago we cleared
everything here, but it's overgrown again.
10
00:01:01,377 --> 00:01:04,133
One alley goes to the pond.
11
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:06,550
This alley is one of the main ones.
12
00:01:06,850 --> 00:01:11,240
I learned from new sources
that it was lined with spruce trees,
13
00:01:11,466 --> 00:01:13,911
a few of remain to this day.
14
00:01:14,220 --> 00:01:18,622
If the linden trees in this alley had been preserved,
(we're going to walk there now),
15
00:01:18,970 --> 00:01:21,500
only a few spruces remain, they don't live long.
16
00:01:21,850 --> 00:01:23,460
They die after 200 years.
17
00:01:23,866 --> 00:01:28,044
One alley was sort of like that,
there's a path there.
18
00:01:28,577 --> 00:01:31,066
It went out to the other side of the park.
19
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:33,822
Probably the first thing to be done
20
00:01:34,130 --> 00:01:35,644
is to restore this alley
21
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,350
because there aren't any precious trees here
22
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:41,550
and it can be fixed nicely.
23
00:01:42,488 --> 00:01:46,044
These days no one is interested in anything.
24
00:01:48,488 --> 00:01:50,355
The only ones who care
25
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,400
are our teachers who work here.
26
00:01:57,688 --> 00:02:00,560
School students have little interest in this.
27
00:02:02,100 --> 00:02:03,200
–Why?
28
00:02:03,244 --> 00:02:06,355
– I don't know. Maybe they're just not interested.
29
00:02:06,750 --> 00:02:08,250
Why should they care?
30
00:02:09,060 --> 00:02:11,700
Some of them even asked me,
'Why does this matter?
31
00:02:12,050 --> 00:02:14,000
It's not like we go there or anything.'
32
00:02:14,250 --> 00:02:16,050
I tell them, 'Well, you live here!'
33
00:02:16,355 --> 00:02:19,022
It would be wonderful if the park
34
00:02:19,350 --> 00:02:21,020
looked beautiful.
35
00:02:21,288 --> 00:02:23,155
Then you'd want to go there.'
36
00:02:24,220 --> 00:02:28,050
They say, 'We're not going to stay here
until we die anyway.'
37
00:02:28,622 --> 00:02:33,333
After high school, they want to go
to big cities for more education.
38
00:02:33,910 --> 00:02:36,100
They don't want to return.
39
00:02:37,460 --> 00:02:38,950
I don't know why.
40
00:02:48,530 --> 00:02:51,377
[Gorai]
41
00:02:51,820 --> 00:02:54,850
This is the community center.
42
00:02:55,450 --> 00:03:01,650
It was obviously the cultural center
of the Gorai Collective Farm.
43
00:03:01,950 --> 00:03:04,650
All holidays and events
44
00:03:05,111 --> 00:03:08,933
were held at this community center.
45
00:03:09,288 --> 00:03:13,511
There were a lot of young people
and locals in the collective farm.
46
00:03:16,170 --> 00:03:19,350
At one time, a very good manager
ran this community center,
47
00:03:19,700 --> 00:03:22,700
Inna Nikolaevna Nikitina.
48
00:03:22,710 --> 00:03:26,177
She was very neat and everything
was always in order here,
49
00:03:26,300 --> 00:03:29,150
it was in absolutely tip-top
shape and squeaky clean.
50
00:03:29,644 --> 00:03:31,288
We can go in here.
51
00:03:40,488 --> 00:03:42,888
Here you see...
52
00:03:45,644 --> 00:03:47,644
We can go further into the hall.
53
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,244
Here in this alley
54
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:09,066
almost all of the linden trees still remain
55
00:04:11,333 --> 00:04:13,733
from those planted.
56
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,000
Some of the trees have already fallen.
57
00:04:16,711 --> 00:04:19,066
I don't even know how to bring them back to life.
58
00:04:19,377 --> 00:04:21,688
A part is bent over, but at least
59
00:04:22,177 --> 00:04:24,933
it's evident that this was an alley.
60
00:04:25,333 --> 00:04:29,688
If we go down this alley,
we'll come out onto another one
61
00:04:30,170 --> 00:04:36,250
and we'll see a pond and an islet.
62
00:04:37,110 --> 00:04:41,333
There are only three
such islets of solitude in Ostrov,
63
00:04:41,777 --> 00:04:44,133
but two of them can be reached only by water;
64
00:04:44,470 --> 00:04:46,790
but you could reach ours by crossing a bridge,
65
00:04:47,100 --> 00:04:49,150
which unfortunately no longer exists.
66
00:04:49,550 --> 00:04:52,000
In what way is this park unique?
67
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:57,250
It's different from other parks
here in the Pskov Region
68
00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:04,950
because many parks began to be built here
at the beginning of the 19th century.
69
00:05:05,460 --> 00:05:08,550
English landscape gardens were all the rage then
70
00:05:09,110 --> 00:05:13,955
and 95–99% of manor parks
71
00:05:14,300 --> 00:05:16,000
were designed in that style.
72
00:05:16,311 --> 00:05:18,755
This park was designed with Italian elements.
73
00:05:19,280 --> 00:05:22,250
Much hard work went into designing
the terraces here.
74
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:26,110
For example, here is a very complicated
hydraulic engineering system.
75
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,080
In this pond, for instance,
76
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:31,644
lime slabs cover the bottom of it and
77
00:05:32,266 --> 00:05:34,088
this is why the water was very clean.
78
00:05:34,750 --> 00:05:39,900
A system of culverts was built there.
79
00:05:40,310 --> 00:05:42,500
But we must realize
80
00:05:42,850 --> 00:05:45,400
that we are the last generation to see all of this.
81
00:05:45,911 --> 00:05:49,022
Our children won't see it anymore
when they grow up
82
00:05:49,420 --> 00:05:53,350
and reach our age; they'll see
something completely different.
83
00:05:53,650 --> 00:05:56,150
If they're lucky, they'll see a restored park,
84
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,150
but if not, I don't know, anything could be here —
85
00:05:59,450 --> 00:06:02,050
this area could be all built up or just be a forest.
86
00:06:10,100 --> 00:06:12,400
In fact, previously in this spot,
87
00:06:12,750 --> 00:06:15,050
more than 200 years ago
88
00:06:15,350 --> 00:06:18,000
there was a huge estate and a manor house.
89
00:06:19,550 --> 00:06:21,800
There were quite a lot of
90
00:06:22,100 --> 00:06:24,200
famous people who would come here.
91
00:06:24,450 --> 00:06:27,900
It's our history. It happened right here.
92
00:06:28,190 --> 00:06:31,300
We should remember that
and strive to preserve this place.
93
00:06:31,700 --> 00:06:35,950
This is a cultural heritage and
people think about this
94
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,850
because they live in a historic place.
95
00:06:39,450 --> 00:06:41,050
This place, it's...
96
00:06:41,300 --> 00:06:44,400
at one time probably
all of Russia knew about it,
97
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:49,100
but now it's just a regular remote village.
98
00:07:04,450 --> 00:07:09,250
It was built so beautifully!
What architectural style! Only arches!
99
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:14,700
There was a stairway here to the second floor
that led to the clubroom.
100
00:07:15,550 --> 00:07:17,800
This is where the merchants' warehouses were.
101
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:21,500
There used to be a gate there,
but it's gone and everything is destroyed.
102
00:07:21,850 --> 00:07:24,550
There was a stairway here for people to go upstairs.
103
00:07:24,900 --> 00:07:27,350
And there were these —
I didn't know before what "lyasy" is,
104
00:07:27,650 --> 00:07:29,350
people say, "to sharpen lyasy"
(to chatter idly),
105
00:07:29,500 --> 00:07:33,300
and here's a railing with carved posts.
106
00:07:33,650 --> 00:07:36,200
That's exactly what "lyasy" are.
There were carved balusters here.
107
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:38,850
The kindergarten was closed, I guess,
108
00:07:39,250 --> 00:07:42,550
probably in 1995–1996.
109
00:07:42,850 --> 00:07:44,100
We had a nice kindergarten.
110
00:07:44,550 --> 00:07:46,900
A teacher came to teach at our school.
111
00:07:47,450 --> 00:07:51,150
She taught foreign languages before Marina
Viktorovna. Her name was Marina L'vovna.
112
00:07:51,550 --> 00:07:55,250
So, we bought a piano for our kindergarten and
113
00:07:55,500 --> 00:07:59,450
she was the music teacher at our school.
The children sang at holiday events
114
00:07:59,700 --> 00:08:01,550
and performed on Agricultural Workers' Day,
115
00:08:01,850 --> 00:08:04,650
as well as on Victory Day.
116
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:06,600
All of the little children were singing
117
00:08:07,050 --> 00:08:08,800
and the parents were so pleased
118
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:10,800
because their children
were dressed up and beautiful
119
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:12,200
and they sang little songs.
120
00:08:13,300 --> 00:08:14,650
My biggest dream
121
00:08:15,100 --> 00:08:17,650
is to be an editor in a publishing house.
122
00:08:17,900 --> 00:08:22,400
I enjoy analyzing texts and
finding mistakes. It's interesting.
123
00:08:23,150 --> 00:08:26,150
And I want to be a writer myself,
124
00:08:27,950 --> 00:08:31,550
so it really appeals to me, but it's also
125
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:36,900
quite fascinating to learn
the origin of archaic words
126
00:08:37,300 --> 00:08:42,450
and maybe I could seriously
get into that in the future.
127
00:08:44,450 --> 00:08:48,050
– What needs to happen for you to stay here?
128
00:08:51,350 --> 00:08:53,700
– Hmm, that's a good question.
129
00:08:58,650 --> 00:09:02,000
If this school is still around
130
00:09:02,700 --> 00:09:06,950
by the time that I graduate from college,
131
00:09:07,300 --> 00:09:11,800
maybe I could work there as a teacher.
132
00:09:12,750 --> 00:09:14,600
It's possible, I don't know.
133
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,700
I'd really like to stay here, but
134
00:09:24,500 --> 00:09:28,050
to stay here you have to think of something.
135
00:09:28,300 --> 00:09:30,450
Maybe even become a farmer.
136
00:09:30,950 --> 00:09:33,050
And then staying here is conceivable
137
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,150
because there's no other work here
138
00:09:37,350 --> 00:09:39,350
and a person can't survive without a job.
139
00:09:39,700 --> 00:09:41,100
People need to work.
140
00:09:41,500 --> 00:09:44,100
Otherwise, if people don't work,
141
00:09:44,450 --> 00:09:46,400
they themselves will start to die off.
142
00:09:47,700 --> 00:09:49,500
They will just be lazy
143
00:09:50,100 --> 00:09:53,650
and lie around and do nothing
or drink themselves to death.
144
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:56,600
That's not for me.
145
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,450
They say that in this park
146
00:10:07,750 --> 00:10:10,200
especially down this alley
147
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,250
Aleksandr Sergeevich Pushkin
really loved to stroll.
148
00:10:13,500 --> 00:10:15,950
Several sources claim that he was often here
149
00:10:16,300 --> 00:10:21,950
because the Lorer-Rosen estate
was often visited by those
150
00:10:22,300 --> 00:10:24,550
who later became Decembrists
151
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:26,950
and they were friends with him.
152
00:10:27,450 --> 00:10:30,750
So, they say that Aleksandr Sergeevich
was here too
153
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,200
and lindens are considered to have a calming
154
00:10:34,550 --> 00:10:37,050
effect on people and if you hug them and
155
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,750
make a wish, it will definitely come true.
156
00:10:40,150 --> 00:10:44,000
As a matter of fact, linden trees
symbolize love, faith, and hope.
157
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:49,950
I honestly don't know for sure
why we need this park,
158
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,250
but we just don't want it to disappear.
159
00:10:53,700 --> 00:10:55,700
I, for one, just want it to exist.
160
00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:00,100
Because before it... We still have
the original layout of this park,
161
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:03,900
with pictures that show what it looked like.
162
00:11:04,750 --> 00:11:06,600
It was obviously very beautiful.
163
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,350
Many people were here then,
but now there are none.
164
00:11:10,300 --> 00:11:11,900
Everything is overgrown.
165
00:11:16,350 --> 00:11:19,000
The district and our Pskov Region
166
00:11:19,450 --> 00:11:21,950
generally have many such places that at one time
167
00:11:22,550 --> 00:11:26,500
looked very different... 100 or 200 years ago,
168
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:28,750
but unfortunately today they are run down.
169
00:11:29,100 --> 00:11:32,450
And money and machines
at the municipal level
170
00:11:32,850 --> 00:11:36,450
are quite difficult to find
to restore these sites.
171
00:11:37,100 --> 00:11:39,400
To apply for federal assistance,
172
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,450
one needs to put together a plan
173
00:11:43,250 --> 00:11:45,050
of design solutions.
174
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:49,650
Naturally, this should come from
the administration of the Pskov Region
175
00:11:49,950 --> 00:11:53,000
since I guess the municipality on its own
176
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:56,200
can't apply through the Ministry of Culture.
177
00:11:56,650 --> 00:11:59,000
We're considering all possibilities.
178
00:11:59,300 --> 00:12:01,150
There are various funds, for example,
179
00:12:01,500 --> 00:12:04,150
to which a municipality can
submit an application,
180
00:12:04,650 --> 00:12:06,650
but one still needs to find
181
00:12:07,300 --> 00:12:12,600
some investment so as not
to show up and say that
182
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:16,150
we have a manor house. Instead,
we should prepare a full range of options,
183
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:21,200
which also require funding,
decisions about landscaping,
184
00:12:21,450 --> 00:12:25,400
historical and cultural
assessments and everything else
185
00:12:25,750 --> 00:12:28,100
and unfortunately money
is needed for all that too.
186
00:12:28,500 --> 00:12:31,100
– So, you're asking for money now.
187
00:12:31,500 --> 00:12:34,750
– For all intents and purposes, yes.
– To put it simply.
188
00:12:35,150 --> 00:12:36,850
And this doesn't bother you?
189
00:12:39,050 --> 00:12:43,100
– You know, it bothers me a lot,
but, on the other hand,
190
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:45,850
there aren't any other options.
191
00:12:46,500 --> 00:12:48,300
Because other sources don't exist.
192
00:12:48,650 --> 00:12:50,400
So, we have to ask for help.
193
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:56,750
The second thing is that money can
easily be returned to the government later
194
00:12:57,100 --> 00:12:58,950
because I think the park can make money
195
00:12:59,350 --> 00:13:01,950
when it becomes an attractive tourist destination.
196
00:13:02,300 --> 00:13:04,600
It will earn that money back for the government.
197
00:13:05,650 --> 00:13:08,300
And it's not just about the money;
198
00:13:08,700 --> 00:13:10,800
it's about the people who live here.
199
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,300
They want their village to be preserved.
200
00:13:14,750 --> 00:13:19,150
They want to walk in a lovely park
in their village,
201
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:24,550
where everything will look
beautiful and not like a forest.
202
00:13:25,550 --> 00:13:29,300
I'd basically like the park to be restored.
203
00:13:31,450 --> 00:13:35,900
Maybe then more people would
start coming here.
204
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:42,350
Then they'd get the word out
about this area and its people
205
00:13:42,700 --> 00:13:44,700
and talk to everyone.
206
00:13:45,250 --> 00:13:47,500
People would see how gorgeous it is here.
207
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,750
I think a lot of folks would start coming here.
208
00:13:51,450 --> 00:13:55,450
Everyone would be interested. Well...
209
00:13:58,050 --> 00:14:00,100
And besides, I myself would be pleased.
210
00:14:00,500 --> 00:14:03,200
I'd walk around in this park every day.
211
00:14:09,150 --> 00:14:11,500
Most likely, at one time
there were even boats here
212
00:14:11,700 --> 00:14:13,700
and people could go for rides.
213
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,050
There was a small berth and a pier.
214
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:21,100
We'd like to build a beautiful
Italian-style gazebo here
215
00:14:21,300 --> 00:14:23,500
because it was originally done in Italian style
216
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:24,950
and put out a few benches.
217
00:14:25,850 --> 00:14:28,900
That way people can come and feel
218
00:14:29,350 --> 00:14:33,850
the ambiance of past centuries.
219
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:37,050
Obviously, after we clear the growth
220
00:14:37,350 --> 00:14:41,300
we'll need to plant some new trees here;
221
00:14:41,650 --> 00:14:44,800
the kinds that were here originally or
222
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:49,850
similar ones as substitutes
223
00:14:50,150 --> 00:14:52,050
in appearance, shall we say.
224
00:14:53,550 --> 00:14:56,450
Some of our local high school
graduates join us,
225
00:14:56,750 --> 00:14:58,450
our relatives, so to speak,
226
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:02,200
and young people from Ostrov.
227
00:15:02,550 --> 00:15:06,050
A group from the tourism industry came here —
228
00:15:06,450 --> 00:15:11,350
they're students at the Pskov
International Tourism Academy —
229
00:15:11,950 --> 00:15:14,000
and also helped us however they could.
230
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:21,350
I've probably been living here in Gorai
longer than everyone else.
231
00:15:22,450 --> 00:15:25,500
The others... It's safe to say
that the young people are gone.
232
00:15:25,850 --> 00:15:27,700
– Do you have children and grandchildren?
233
00:15:28,100 --> 00:15:29,700
– My son lives in Ostrov.
234
00:15:30,350 --> 00:15:32,200
My daughter lives there too.
235
00:15:32,550 --> 00:15:35,700
My grandson is supposed
to come here and cut my grass.
236
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:43,450
– Is there anywhere to work here?
– No, absolutely nowhere! There's only a meat producer.
237
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:48,650
And there aren't any workers left.
There's no one here to work.
238
00:15:49,100 --> 00:15:51,500
– Do you live off your garden?
– Yes.
239
00:15:52,750 --> 00:15:54,900
All of our food comes from our garden.
240
00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:06,800
We used to have a ton
of young people, but now?
241
00:16:07,150 --> 00:16:09,500
They've all left and are gone.
There's no work here.
242
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,400
The main thing is there's nowhere
here to work. Simple as that!
243
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,250
They often threatened to close our school
244
00:16:19,100 --> 00:16:22,000
and we hear about that all of the time.
245
00:16:22,250 --> 00:16:25,500
Things are tense and it seems
246
00:16:25,850 --> 00:16:27,850
that the clock is ticking
247
00:16:28,050 --> 00:16:30,250
and any minute now the school will be empty.
248
00:16:30,550 --> 00:16:31,650
It's scary.
249
00:16:32,450 --> 00:16:35,450
To be honest, we're not sure anymore
250
00:16:35,850 --> 00:16:40,050
if it will still be here in 5–10 years.
251
00:16:41,500 --> 00:16:45,450
Sure, on the one hand, it's expensive,
252
00:16:45,700 --> 00:16:48,000
but, on the other, we know
that if the school is gone,
253
00:16:48,300 --> 00:16:50,450
two years from now there'll be
an empty space there,
254
00:16:50,750 --> 00:16:53,700
it won't even be an empty space, but it
will simply be dilapidated and ugly.
255
00:16:54,650 --> 00:16:57,750
And all the other young people
and families who live here
256
00:16:58,050 --> 00:16:59,700
will most definitely leave
257
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,100
because taking their children to another school
258
00:17:02,450 --> 00:17:05,600
is dangerous and inconvenient.
259
00:17:07,700 --> 00:17:10,500
I wouldn't say that our government doesn't care.
260
00:17:12,300 --> 00:17:16,400
Maybe it doesn't want to help us
or maybe it can't.
261
00:17:17,050 --> 00:17:22,050
We can find out only by asking
the authorities themselves.
262
00:17:24,750 --> 00:17:30,350
Before the adults arrive today,
263
00:17:30,900 --> 00:17:35,700
the kids with rakes should work with Ivan
264
00:17:36,300 --> 00:17:39,200
and who here likes using pitchforks? Do you?
265
00:17:40,450 --> 00:17:42,800
OK, we have Danechka with us...
266
00:17:43,500 --> 00:17:47,150
I guess you are used to each other.
267
00:17:47,750 --> 00:17:51,100
From those swaths and piles
of grass the girls will rake
268
00:17:51,550 --> 00:17:53,550
and the grass that has already been cut,
269
00:17:53,900 --> 00:17:56,200
make small piles closer to the road
270
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:57,950
so that we can haul them away.
271
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,400
Evgeniy Igorevich will arrive with a trailer
272
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,600
and we'll load everything and haul it away.
273
00:18:03,950 --> 00:18:06,100
To be honest,
274
00:18:06,350 --> 00:18:09,050
it sometimes feels like there's no hope
275
00:18:09,750 --> 00:18:12,250
and we're busting our behinds for nothing.
276
00:18:12,900 --> 00:18:16,500
But then we have a change of heart and
277
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,550
put our best foot forward
and actually we've already
278
00:18:19,950 --> 00:18:24,100
done quite a bit ourselves for this park.
279
00:18:28,050 --> 00:18:31,850
– Watch your step, kids!
280
00:18:45,700 --> 00:18:51,550
When the word got out
that Baron Rosen's treasure
281
00:18:51,900 --> 00:18:54,600
ended up in this park,
282
00:18:55,300 --> 00:18:59,150
many came to dig here,
so it's best to keep quiet.
283
00:18:59,900 --> 00:19:05,350
Car after car come here
day and night with shovels.
284
00:19:05,750 --> 00:19:11,450
If only people were that enthusiastic
to restore the alleys and everything else.
285
00:19:13,250 --> 00:19:18,250
We get sidetracked and stop,
but we have to keep making progress.
286
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:23,450
Otherwise, future generations
won't have anything left.
287
00:19:46,650 --> 00:19:50,100
We have a common problem —
288
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:56,400
collective farms were closed
289
00:19:56,750 --> 00:19:58,550
and now they have fallen to pieces.
290
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,650
Our common problem is that
after losing their jobs,
291
00:20:03,100 --> 00:20:06,150
people left and went their separate ways.
292
00:20:06,850 --> 00:20:09,200
That's the long and the short of it!
293
00:20:10,300 --> 00:20:16,900
And it's really too bad when...
and even shameful
294
00:20:17,100 --> 00:20:19,100
when those who had been here
295
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:24,300
and seen everything before when things were
296
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:28,350
much better, come back.
297
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:32,800
They ask, 'Why did you let it all get
so run-down? What's wrong with you?'
298
00:20:33,250 --> 00:20:35,150
So, whose fault is it?
299
00:20:36,450 --> 00:20:39,150

Gorai Manor Park is a historical and
