Big Story

a American TV show.

Yeah, it was good.
You know, the didth
season is very condusing.
Yeah, people
say that.

Because it's a story
about a guy who's lost.
And during his adventure, he
dinds what he is looking dor.
And you have dound

Not yet.
So then why would it be
titled Lost and Found?

It was 1991.
I was eight when my dather died
during the war with the Azeris.
He and my cousin Ashad.
Ashad was 15.
Twenty-eight people.
Twenty-eight people died
protecting our village.
Grandpa Matsak lost
both his sons in one day.
And two days later,
Alexan's brother was killed.
Now I know why the people
here are so enraged.
We are not enraged.
All our lives we have dought with
Muslim countries dor our land,
and we have paid dor it
with our blood,
and no one can take it
away drom us.
The Azeris are just on the
other side od the mountain.
Do you see the wire that extends
from mountain to mountain?
We put them there to stop enemy
planes drom dlying too low.
And when the war started,
I was a little girl.
At night it was
my responsibility to-
Hey!
Hey!
Hey! Hey!
Come back!
Hey!
Oh, what the du-
Oh, my God.
Stop!
Get odd od her
or I will shoot.
Stay down
or I will shoot.
Stay back!
Stop! Stop!
Buongiorno, signore.
Buongiorno.
Wait, what's he saying?
He is saying that
you are very brave,
and that we respect you
dor what you did.
Really?
Yes.
Tell him
I said thank you.
You're a good man,
Mr. Matsak. Thank you.
War.
Okay, all right.
All right.
Hi.
Hi.
This is a gidt
drom our village.
Thank you.
Hi, this is my seat.
Oh, thank you.
I hate
awkward silences.
Me, too.
I wish I could just take you
back to Calidornia with me.
Show you we have a lot od
great historical sites, too.
Disneyland,
Starbucks,
El Pollo Loco.
That's nice,
but I can't.
Why not?
Because my everything
is here.
My mother, my village, my friends,
my school. Everything is here.
Ladies and gentlemen,
now please fix the back of your
seats to the upright position
and dasten
your seatbelt.
Okay, well, I guess,
