The Irony of Fate

Фильмы

The Irony of Fatehe felt lost and lonely.

Everything around was strange:
houses, streets and life itself.

But it’s all different now.

A person comes to a strange city,

but feels at home there.

To think what lengths of absurdity
our ancestors went to,

when they designed different
architectural projects!

Nowadays in every city you will find

a standard movie theatre “Rocket”,
where you can see

a standard film.

- Do you sell oranges?
- Over there.

Everyone come to the fair!
Christmas decorations, fireworks

and presents for everyone.
Here, my friends!

Names of the streets are
not too inventive either.

What city doesn’t have
a 1st Sadovaya or a 2nd Zagorodnaya,

a 3rd Factory St., a Park St.,
an Industrial St.,

or a 3rd Constructors St.?
Sounds romantic, doesn’t it?

Staircases that all look the same

are all painted with a standard
pleasant color.

Standard apartments furnished
with standard furniture,

standard locks cut into
blind featureless doors.

Zhenya, darling,
I have an unusual proposition.

Oh, is that so?

I’m scared already.

Zhenya, let’s see
in the New Year together.

Well of course.
Isn’t that how we planned it?

No.

You don’t understand.
Let it be just you and me.

What do you mean “just you and me”?
I don’t understand.
