Ssshhh. Don't cry. Don't be afraid. I'm here.
We're together.
Ssshh. Look! Ssshhh. Look what I've made for you.
See the silhouettes.
It's a little book of silhouettes.
When you flip the pages, they move.
Look how nice!
This is you on skates
Turning pretty figure-eights
On the smooth, cool ice...
We are gliding
Gliding on a pond.
Close your eyes.
Close your eyes.
We are gliding
Gliding far beyond.
Close your eyes.
Close your eyes.
Feel the wind
As you pirouette...
Are you happy yet?
Are you happy yet?
Your Mameh would tell you:
"Imagine you're fearless.
Imagine you're fearless
And soon, you won't fear!"
When I am afraid
I imagine your Mameh.
She skates just ahead.
Can you see her?
She's here!
And we're...
Gliding
Gliding far away.
Pirouettes
Figure-eights
Silver skates...
Just down the track.
Glide with me, little one.
Glide with your Tateh.
We'll never
Look back!
My kid would like that! How much?
It's not for... 1 dollar?
What do you call it?
I...
It's gotta have a name. I'm not paying this much for
something without a name.
They move. I call them... movie... books! Your father is a
smart man! With this money, we'll get a clean bed and a hot
bath, and tomorrow we will make more of these and we will
sell them for two dollars. Tateh's movie books! Everyone
will want them. They just don't know that yet!
We are gliding
Gliding far away.
Pirouettes
Figure-eights
Silver skates
Just down the track!
Glide with me, little one
Glide with your Tateh.
We'll never
Look back!
