Short filmTranscript
00:00:01I'm Leonie, and I'm seven. The whole town of Oakhaven thinks I'm cursed. I haven't eaten all day. I just
00:00:11stared at the black bread in my aunt's hand.
00:00:21And she whipped me bloody with a thorny vine. What are you looking at? I gave you a soup last,
00:00:28and you still steal food! You! Good-for-nothing leech! Aunt Grace slammed the heavy farm tool right onto me.
00:00:38Stop playing dead! If you don't finish before sunset, forget about dinner!
00:00:42My hands are covered in cuts, and the broken blisters sting interribly. But I have to work, or I'll be
00:00:50thrown out into the wild.
00:00:53Under the scorching sun, I starved and dragged myself to the field. Passing villagers just pointed and whispered.
00:01:00They said Aunt Grace kept all my dad's military pension from the war, but they only pitied me in secret.
00:01:06No one dared to help.
00:01:07Look at the poor thing. Grace is an absolute monster. She spreads rumors that Leonie is the cursed child who
00:01:14brought the dust storms. Good lord, it breaks my heart.
00:01:18Just then, Mrs. Hannon showed up. She's the meanest, greediest woman in town.
00:01:24Oh, look at this! She just snatched people's seeds. Dirt in Oak Haven is growing its own seeds. Since you
00:01:30don't want them, I'll take them.
00:01:31Ada! You wicked hag! Stealing our seeds? Have you no shame? You dropped them them yourself, and now you're framing
00:01:40me?
00:01:40Mrs. Hannon raised her tool looking so fierce. She scared them away. Mrs. Hanson looked like a wicked witch. Everyone
00:01:48was scared of her.
00:01:49Back off! Don't even think about stealing my seeds! And so was I.
00:01:52I'm sorry, Mrs. Hanson. I'll move over there.
00:01:56But I couldn't run. I had to finish Aunt Grace's work.
00:02:02The sun felt like it was burning a hole in my head. I couldn't hold on anymore.
00:02:08Everything went black, and I crashed into the mud.
00:02:15Hey! You wretched girl!
00:02:29Cold water trickled down my cracked lips. I thought I'd die in that dry mud.
00:02:35But the one who saved me was the meanest, scariest woman in town, Mrs. Hanson.
00:02:40And the two will be.
00:02:41Noooo!
00:02:47So, I'm sorry.
00:02:50Aw, I'm sorry.
00:02:57Cause there.
00:02:58There's some...
00:02:58That's a little...
00:03:00Thisilage...
00:03:01This one has to be fine.
00:03:04This one has to be fine.
00:03:10And I'm sorry.
00:03:10Mrs. Hanson, you dropped your bread.
00:03:13It fell on the ground. I don't want it. It's yours now.
00:03:17I knew she left it just to save me.
00:03:20I held on to that muddy bread tight and prayed,
00:03:22kind people like Mrs. Hanson deserve a reward from God.
00:03:26Right then, Mrs. Hanson accidentally kicked a pile of dead roots,
00:03:30and hidden inside was a massive, golden, dripping wild honeycomb.
00:03:40Mrs. Hanson took her lucky find home.
00:03:43She wanted to save the precious honey for her sick oldest son.
00:03:48Mother, this is too precious.
00:03:50You work so hard every day, you should have it.
00:03:55Are you trying to infuriate me?
00:03:57Arthur can barely breathe from his coughing.
00:04:00Do you want him to meet his mather early?
00:04:03Miss Ella, her second daughter-in-law, is super selfish.
00:04:08Her eyes lit up when she saw the honey, just like a hungry wolf.
00:04:16Arthur's minor lungs are already rotting.
00:04:18It's a waste to give it to him.
00:04:19I'm carrying your only grandson.
00:04:21He needs the nutrition way more.
00:04:27Stop!
00:04:28Mrs. Hanson and Miss Martha stormed out in a rage.
00:04:32But right as she crossed the threshold,
00:04:34Mrs. Hanson tripped over a dark figure in the corner.
00:04:38Curled up in the freezing corner was a ragged, bloody figure.
00:04:43It was me.
00:04:44My God, Leoneni!
00:04:46Why are you covered in blood out here?
00:04:51Since I didn't finish the work,
00:04:53my aunt whipped me bloody and threw me out.
00:04:56Turns out, under all that yelling,
00:04:58Mrs. Hanson's had the only kind heart in town.
00:05:02Grace is a wicked, heartless witch!
00:05:05What a bastard!
00:05:09Why did you come to my house anyway?
00:05:12Out of all the houses in the village,
00:05:13you were I and my honey, weren't you?
00:05:15No, Mrs. Hanson.
00:05:17It's because I know you're a good person.
00:05:26Don't be scared, Leonie.
00:05:28Stay with us tonight and I'll take you back in the morning.
00:05:30Oh my gosh!
00:05:31Miss Martha let me stay?
00:05:33Is this real?
00:05:34No!
00:05:35I don't agree!
00:05:36Get out!
00:05:37But Miss Ella called me a free loaner.
00:05:40Grabbed me by the neck and tried to throw me out to the wolves.
00:05:43It hurts!
00:05:44Mrs. Hanson, help me!
00:05:46Please don't throw me out!
00:05:48I'll do anything!
00:05:50I struggled in despair, wanting so badly to live.
00:05:53Right then, a massive 200-pound wild boar charged like crazy
00:05:58and smashed itself to death against the courtyard wall.
00:06:06Because of the famine, everyone in town only ever ate hard black bread.
00:06:11But tonight we had delicious roast pork.
00:06:14Sweet Miss Martha gave me the best piece of meat.
00:06:16I didn't want to eat it.
00:06:18I wanted to repay Mrs. Hanson for keeping me warm.
00:06:21But just as she went to take her first bite,
00:06:25something weird happened.
00:06:27Get lost, you begging little stray!
00:06:29You don't belong here!
00:06:46Miss Ella, I'm sorry.
00:06:49I won't eat it.
00:06:50You can have it all.
00:06:51I don't know why, but Miss Ella bites into a bone and knocks her teeth out.
00:06:56Her mouth is full of blood.
00:06:59Miss Ella is furious she didn't get to eat the meat.
00:07:01But there's nothing she can do.
00:07:03She just leaves in a rage.
00:07:12Leon, you are a good girl.
00:07:16It's morning.
00:07:17Miss Martha takes me home.
00:07:19As soon as we reach the gate,
00:07:20I see Aunt Grace throwing all my things out.
00:07:23She's kicking me out right in front of all the neighbors.
00:07:25Throw all this trash out!
00:07:26Don't bring bad luck into our house!
00:07:28She says my dad is dead and the military won't send any more subsidies.
00:07:41Auntie, please don't kick me out!
00:07:43I'll work harder!
00:07:45I won't eat!
00:07:46I won't sleep!
00:07:47I'm begging you!
00:07:49Get lost!
00:07:50You cursed brat!
00:07:51You killed your own father!
00:07:53Stay away from us!
00:07:55Aunt Grace wants to kick me out.
00:07:57I cry and hug her leg, terrified that dad won't find me when he comes back.
00:08:02She heartlessly kicks me away, grabs a thorny stick, and whips me hard on the back.
00:08:07I run out of the house into the cornfield, and I run and run.
00:08:16Miss Martha rushes over to protect, but Aunt Grace violently shoves her away.
00:08:20Back off!
00:08:21Mind your own business.
00:08:37Take this dead man's trash and go straight to hell!
00:08:45Dad!
00:08:47Even with the glass cutting my fingers and blood pouring out, I desperately gather the pieces.
00:08:53I have to put the photo back together.
00:08:58Stop it!
00:09:01Stop it!
00:09:02A thunderous roar really comes from the back of the crowd.
00:09:13The thunderous roar shocks everyone.
00:09:17The burly Sheriff Harry violently shoves my aunt away.
00:09:21He drops to one knee in the mud and lifts my bloody body.
00:09:25Mr. Carter, tell me my dad isn't dead.
00:09:27They're just lying to me, right?
00:09:29I beg him in despair, but looking at my mangled hands, Mr. Carter painfully closes his eyes.
00:09:36In that moment, the last bit of hope in my heart completely dies.
00:09:41Dad really isn't coming back.
00:09:46Leone is the child of a hero!
00:09:48How dare you treat her like this!
00:09:50She's a jinx.
00:09:51I won't let her pass her bad luck to my son.
00:09:54She's getting out of my house today.
00:09:55Aunt Grace doesn't just want to kick me out.
00:09:59She wants to steal the farm and house Dad left me.
00:10:02And my own Uncle Thomas just guiltily hides behind his wife, not even daring to look at me.
00:10:08My wife is right.
00:10:10We have a son to raise, too.
00:10:12Mr. Carter takes off his hat and humbly begs the villagers to each chip in a little food to raise
00:10:18me together.
00:10:18But those neighbors, who once received favors from my dad, all make excuses about having no extra food.
00:10:27They even suggest sending me to the workhouse in the city.
00:10:31In that moment, I feel like a dirty rag tossed away by the world.
00:10:36With red eyes, Mr. Carter drags me toward his carriage.
00:10:40I click frantically, digging my nails deep into the dirt, my face covered in blood and tears.
00:10:46I don't want to go to the workhouse! I want to wait for Dad right here!
00:10:50Please don't send me away!
00:10:53Just as I'm about to be stuffed into the carriage, I see a skinny but determined figure burst through the
00:10:59crowd.
00:11:00It's Miss Martha.
00:11:01Enough! Nobody is taking her away!
00:11:04I'm going to adopt Leonie!
00:11:06She snatches me back, ignoring everything else, and holds me tight in her warm embrace.
00:11:18I hide in Miss Martha's warm arms like a drowning cat.
00:11:22Even though Mr. Carter sighs and says the workhouse will feed me, I still grip Miss Martha's clothes tightly.
00:11:29She's the last bit of light I can hold on to.
00:11:34Miss Martha, I'll be good.
00:11:37I'll eat less and work more from now on.
00:11:40I promise to treat Leonie like my own child.
00:11:43As long as I have a bite to eat, she won't starve.
00:11:46How bizarre.
00:11:47Someone actually wants to raise this jinx.
00:11:49Martha, I suggest you prepare a coffin for your sick husband first.
00:11:53Right then, Miss Ella, heavily pregnant, suddenly stormed out.
00:11:58Martha!
00:11:59Are you insane?
00:12:00She's just a freeloading jinx.
00:12:03Where on earth do we have the money to raise a stray?
00:12:05Everyone is saying Mrs. Hanson will kick me out.
00:12:09Martha, your family has no extra money or food either.
00:12:13Your mother-in-law will probably just throw her out again tomorrow.
00:12:16You gutter rat!
00:12:19Is talking trash behind people's backs all you're good for in this life?
00:12:23Mrs. Hanson shows up with a dark scowl.
00:12:26Everyone expects her to throw me back into the wild.
00:12:29But the next second, a crisp slap echoes out and the whole yard falls dead silent.
00:12:42You idiot.
00:12:44Don't think being pregnant makes you untouchable.
00:12:46How dare you come out here spewing lies?
00:12:49Now, get your ass back home now!
00:12:58Taking Leonie in was my call.
00:13:01Anyone else got something to say?
00:13:03I'll shatter your bones with this pole!
00:13:07Mrs. Hanson's words hit like a bombshell.
00:13:10She's actually taking me.
00:13:12Turns out, even in this freezing world, someone is willing to face the backlash for a jinx like me.
00:13:19Ada, you've been a cheap shooter your whole life.
00:13:22You hoard rusty nails, but now you're raising a stray?
00:13:26They're dirt poor.
00:13:28Bet they'll trade her for rations?
00:13:30She's a hero's kid!
00:13:31You'll rot in jail for this!
00:13:33Cowards!
00:13:34When Officer Harry begged for food, it was crickets.
00:13:37Now I step up, and suddenly you've all got an opinion?
00:13:40You want her?
00:13:41Take her!
00:13:42No?
00:13:42Then shut your mouths!
00:13:46Listen up, Leonie.
00:13:47You'll be cold, hungry, and working your fingers to the bone.
00:13:51Can you handle that?
00:13:53I can!
00:13:54I'll wash clothes, gather wood, and take care of Mr. Arthur.
00:13:58When I'm older, I swear I'll make it up to you!
00:14:01All right, then.
00:14:02From now on, I'm your grandma, and Martha is your mom.
00:14:07Grandma!
00:14:10Mom!
00:14:13Not so fast!
00:14:14You want the kid?
00:14:16You owe me rations for my trouble!
00:14:18Are you crazy, Grace?
00:14:19You just refused to take her!
00:14:21You can't shake Ada down for food now!
00:14:23The orphanage is free!
00:14:25But a private adoption?
00:14:29That's a deal.
00:14:30Five pounds of premium flour.
00:14:32Not an ounce less, or she stays put.
00:14:35Okay.
00:14:43I was terrified Mrs. Hanson would back out.
00:14:46Five pounds of flour just for me?
00:14:48That's a whole month's worth of bread for a family.
00:14:50Fine!
00:14:51Deal!
00:14:51What?
00:14:53Ada actually agreed?
00:14:55We're writing a contract to cut all ties right here.
00:14:58From this moment on, Leon has nothing to do with you two animals.
00:15:02Dead or alive, we go our separate ways.
00:15:06Fine by me!
00:15:07Who wants this jinx anyway?
00:15:09Thomas, go right up the contract!
00:15:14Just as Aunt Grace smugly carries the flour inside, she trips over nothing.
00:15:20The flour she traded me for is completely blown away by the wind.
00:15:48See that?
00:15:50God is watching!
00:15:52Leonie, let's go home!
00:15:54For the first time, the cramped cabin feels warm from the fire.
00:15:59Mrs. Hanson curses the whole time, calling the thick wool blanket Miss Martha spent three
00:16:04months knitting a piece of junk, but she tosses it right into my arms.
00:16:08This junk is stiff and stinky!
00:16:10Hurry up and make a bed for this unlucky brat, and don't get my floor dirty!
00:16:16Grandma Ada calls that beautiful wool blanket junk, but she has sick Mr. Arthur tuck me in with it.
00:16:24In this moment, I finally have a home.
00:16:28Mr. Arthur tells me to call him dad.
00:16:38He says until my real dad comes back, he'll protect me with his life.
00:16:43I'm finally not an unwanted kid anymore.
00:16:50Good lord, how could that wicked woman do this?
00:16:55Martha, go sell my wool coat. Use the money to build up her strength.
00:17:01To buy me meat. Dad even wants to sell his winter coat.
00:17:04Grandma slams the table and stops him, because without it, dad won't survive the winter.
00:17:10Mom cries and says the doctor told them a natural hot spring could turn dad's health around.
00:17:15But in Oak Haven, where it hasn't rained in three years, that's impossible.
00:17:20Don't be scared, dad. I'll pray to the angels. You're going to get better.
00:17:26I pray to the angels with all my heart. I'd give up ten years of my life for dad's health.
00:17:32I run to the back hill, wanting to do more chores for the family.
00:17:37With a loud pop, I easily pull a deep-rooted stump right out of the ground.
00:17:42Then, a blast of hot, wet steam shoots into the sky like a giant dragon.
00:17:49Grandma! Mom! Come out quick! I broke the ground!
00:17:55Hearing my scream, Grandma Ad rushes over first.
00:17:59I think I broke the earth and caused a huge disaster.
00:18:04But when she touches the boiling water with trembling hands, she laughs and cries like a kid.
00:18:11It's hot! The water is hot! It's a natural hot spring!
00:18:19The water is hot!
00:18:37A hot spring! It's a real hot spring!
00:18:41Arthur! My son! The doctor said a hot spring could save your lungs! You're saved!
00:18:49Mom hugs me tight and kisses my face in excitement. She says I'm an angel sent by God.
00:18:55It turns out I'm not unwanted trash. I can be someone's salvation too.
00:19:01But when I happily return to the yard, I'm greeted by two icy faces. Miss Ella and Aunt Grace are
00:19:09whispering together.
00:19:10Their glares pierce my heart like poison swords.
00:19:14What rotten luck! We're already too poor to eat and now we have to share food with her.
00:19:19Ella, I'm telling you, stay away from them. That Leone brings nothing but bad luck.
00:19:30But remembering bad spent all his money on medicine. I can't bear to see this family tear itself apart over
00:19:37me.
00:19:38Miss Ella, please don't be mad. I won't fight for anything. I'll help take care of the baby and I
00:19:46won't eat the good food.
00:19:49Miss Ella, please don't be mad.
00:19:49Liar! Are you gonna let her pass her bad luck to your son? Her curse will kill your son!
00:20:03Get lost! Don't touch me with your dirty hands!
00:20:16Aunt Grace screams that I'm a monster who kills families, pushing Miss Ella to attack me.
00:20:23Just as I try to beg again, Ella winds up and slaps me hard across the face.
00:20:32My face burns like it's on fire, but I don't cry. Grandma Ada told me if I'm bullied and oppressed,
00:20:40I have to fight back.
00:20:42Leone, you are a child of this house. When you get bullied, you fight back.
00:20:47Grandma helps me raise my hand and aim at Aunt Grace, who's waiting for a laugh.
00:20:52The stone hits her shoulder dead on. Ouch! My shoulder's hurt! Help!
00:20:57I watch Aunt Grace run away. She used to seem like a giant fence to me, but now she looks
00:21:04like a panicked gray rat scurrying around.
00:21:07Grandma Ada is like a massive tree shielding me from the storm. She publicly announces she's cutting ties with Miss
00:21:15Ella.
00:21:15Leone is my chosen granddaughter. She's no jinx!
00:21:18Mother, your real grandson is right here. Arthur is a cripple, and Martha can't have kids.
00:21:23If you insist on keeping this jinx, we're cutting ties.
00:21:27Fine, I agree.
00:21:28Mom and Dad pull Grandma's sleeves, begging her not to act rashly, but she firmly refuses.
00:21:35As long as this toxic woman, Ella, is around, our family will never have a normal life! I'm kicking this
00:21:43wicked woman out today!
00:21:46Cutting ties is no big deal. But get the best house and the biggest part of the farm! Done!
00:21:54You can have it! Just get out of my sight!
00:21:57Ella, don't hesitate! Cut ties with them! And your husband's money will be all yours!
00:22:06Do you want Leonise to bring bad luck to you and your baby? Don't forget, her unlucky dad just died
00:22:15in the war!
00:22:16My dad isn't dead! He's coming back! He'll come back and make you pay!
00:22:22Stop dreaming! He was blown to ashes long ago! You won't even find his bones!
00:22:29Leonise's bad luck will drag the whole town down! Just watch! Soon you won't even have mud to eat!
00:22:36I'm not a jinx! Grandma Ada says I brought good luck! You're a bad person! Get out of my house!
00:22:49Aunt Grace's laughter suddenly stops as the roar of an engine, where the steel monster shatters the silence of the
00:22:57wasteland, and traces backwards of us.
00:23:00The car door opens, and a tall man covered in metal steps out. I don't even need to see his
00:23:06face!
00:23:07The pounding in my blood give, gives me the answer. Dad!
00:23:19The majestic maid decorated with metals, gives me a solemn salute.
00:23:24I thought God heard my prayers, and brought Dad back. But that cold purple heart, tells me, I'll never feel
00:23:33his hug again.
00:23:40Captain Leo protected our country with his life. This honor belongs to him, and to his only daughter, Leonie.
00:23:47The major pulls out a thick paper bag. Inside is $5,000 from my dad's military pension.
00:23:55I don't know how much that is, but I hear the adults saying it could buy a mountain of bread
00:24:00covered in sugar and jam.
00:24:03Aunt Grace and Uncle Thomas pop out of nowhere. One second they want to throw me into the wild,
00:24:09and the next they put on fake smiles and try to drag me home. Uncle Thomas grips my arm like
00:24:14an iron vis.
00:24:15I know he doesn't want me. He wants that blood money.
00:24:20Grandma Ada acts like a lioness protecting her cub, and rips up my sleeve.
00:24:25Those rotting frostbites and bruises look so layering in the sunlight.
00:24:30Look, sir! Living with these two heartless scumbags,
00:24:32Leonie starves, freezes, and gets beaten every single day! It's absolutely heartbreaking!
00:24:44You! How dare you treat a hero's only daughter like an animal!
00:24:52Aunt Grace is still lying. She points at my bloody wounds and lies with a straight face
00:24:57that I fell while playing. But I see the neighbors shaking their heads. They all know it's not true.
00:25:04Bullshit! I saw you buy new leather boots in the city with the military pay while you made this poor
00:25:08kid gnaw on spoiled potato peels in the snow! Yeah! She even locked a kid in the barn to beat
00:25:13her! We all heard the scream!
00:25:15The major's face is as dark as a stormy sky. He waves his white-gloved hand and orders their arrest.
00:25:21Uncle Thomas is taken away, but Aunt Grace avoids arrest because she has a baby to take care of.
00:25:29Watching the jeep drive away, I don't feel the thrill of revenge. I just think that maybe justice
00:25:34really does come to this desolate life. I thought with $5,000, my new home would be safe. I never
00:25:44expected trouble to come so fast. Miss Ella bursts through the door and her stare at that pile of
00:25:49cash is even scarier than Aunt Grace's. I'm carrying the only heir to this family. We should get half
00:25:57of that $5,000. James keeps his head down. For money, he doesn't even dare look at his sick brother.
00:26:04They aren't trying to steal money. They're trying to steal my last memory of my dad.
00:26:10Nobody is touching this money, including you! From now on, we live our own lives! Get out of my house!
00:26:18For me, Grandma kicks her own son out of the house. She rubs my head and says,
00:26:25as long as she's here, no one will touch a single hair on my head.
00:26:35Grandma Ada locks the money in an iron box under the bed. She tells me that money could buy lots
00:26:42of
00:26:42pretty clothes and candy. But my dad traded his life for it, so we can't waste a single penny.
00:26:51Dad's gut-ranking coughs come from the back room. He begs Mom from his sick bed to stop worrying about
00:27:00him. And to save the last bite of food for me.
00:27:20The cracked earth in the Blackwood Forest looks like countless mouths laughing at our poverty.
00:27:25Starving people have stripped away every chewable piece of tree bark in this hell hole.
00:27:30Mom leans on her stick, wandering the wasteland in despair. Just as Mom is about to collapse,
00:27:38I trip hard over a tree root. In the flying dust,
00:27:46I actually find a few heavy, dirty, weird-looking stones.
00:27:53Mom says they're useless rocks and tells me to throw them away. But right as she reaches out,
00:28:00something weird happens again.
00:28:06The festwick dies on the spot and rolls right to Mom's feet. Aunt Grace called me a jinx.
00:28:13But now, God himself has delivered dinner to me.
00:28:27Mom is finally smiling. When she smiles, the wrinkles around her eyes look like pretty flowers.
00:28:35If good luck is real, I want to give it all to the people who treat me well.
00:28:42But this is just the beginning. I actually dig up some lumpy white roots from the dirt that smell amazing.
00:28:51Mom says they're wild mushrooms. They smell so good. I don't know what they are,
00:28:57but Mom says we can sell them for money, so they must be good.
00:29:03Golden grease bubbles in the pan. The white mushrooms Mom sliced.
00:29:10Release an incredible mind-blowing smell in the heat. Even bed-roan Papa Arthur can't help but sit up.
00:29:23You're clearly an angel bringing good luck, yet they call you a witch-bringing disaster.
00:29:28What a bunch of blind idiots.
00:29:31But the smell brings trouble too. Miss Ella bursts in, drooling so much it almost drips into our pot.
00:29:38She points to the air in her belly and demands the biggest bowl of meat.
00:29:45This time, Grandma Ada doesn't even look back. The heavy, bloody meat-crawber in her hand
00:29:52just flies across the room. With Grandma here, no one can bully us.
00:29:56Take one more step into my yard and I'll chop your feet off. Get lost!
00:30:03This is the first time I've ever had a full stomach. I don't have to shiver in a freezing haystack,
00:30:09and no one is pulling my hair. I eat the delicious chicken, and the air smells like pure happiness.
00:30:23This is the first time I've ever had a full stomach.
00:30:34Papa Arthur says his lungs feel warm and he can finally breathe easier.
00:30:39Mom says those white mushrooms we found will definitely sell for a good price.
00:30:45If we can buy medicine, Papa will be saved!
00:30:50The blowing yellow sand can't hide how run down the market is.
00:30:55Mom and I huddle in a corner, carefully laying out those lumpy white roots.
00:30:59I don't know it yet, but these wild mushrooms are called white gold on the tables of rich city folks.
00:31:06And then she started begging her cousin Mark.
00:31:10She kept pulling on his sleeve and crying.
00:31:13I'm sorry.
00:31:14She wanted Mark Uncle to get Thomas out of jail.
00:31:24Mark is impatiently trying to push her away.
00:31:27Then he notices us in the corner.
00:31:32A Aunt Grace blames me for all her tragedies.
00:31:39Leone!
00:31:41You're the reason my life is ruined!
00:31:47Aunt Grace's face is uglier than dead bark in the Blackwood Forest.
00:31:52For the $5,000 she brought her bully cousin Mark, who works at the town hall.
00:31:58They stare at Mom and me like starving wolves.
00:32:04Mom and I guard our stall. It's our only hope to buy Papa's medicine.
00:32:14But Mark comes right up and kicks our basket over.
00:32:19Mark yells like crazy in the market, framing us for selling deadly poisonous mushrooms.
00:32:24Right in front of everyone, he crushes the white mushrooms we worked so hard to find,
00:32:29just like stepping on trash.
00:32:31Mark grabs the gray stones I've found, calling us money-hungry scammers.
00:32:36With a loud bang, he smashes the rocks onto the ground.
00:32:40The sound of them breaking is the sound of my heart breaking.
00:32:43The crowd believes Mark.
00:32:45They point at us, calling us shameless.
00:32:48Their insults almost drown Mom and me.
00:32:51We're not scamming anyone.
00:32:54These really aren't poisonous mushrooms.
00:32:57That's not true. We're not lying.
00:33:02Mark doesn't care about poisonous mushrooms at all.
00:33:06He just wants the $5,000 Papa left us.
00:33:09He threatens Mom like a snake, saying if we don't pay protection money,
00:33:14he'll make us disappear from Oak Haven for good.
00:33:17To protect my life-saving money, Mom firmly rejects this hungry wolf.
00:33:22But it brings devastating revenge.
00:33:25Mark goes crazy.
00:33:27He flips our stall and crushes the white mushrooms that could save Papa Arthur into mud.
00:33:33I scream and pray for God to punish these bad people.
00:33:36But all I get is Aunt Grace's piercing cacker!
00:33:39You bad people!
00:33:41God is watching!
00:33:42He will definitely punish you!
00:33:45She points at my nose, calling me a naive little idiot, saying even Jesus couldn't save us now.
00:33:53Stop!
00:33:57I follow everyone's gaze and see two men walking in from the crowd.
00:34:02They dress completely differently from the townsfolk and they look incredibly distinguished.
00:34:14What the hell are you blind idiots doing?
00:34:20The old man with glasses kneels in the mud, holding the crushed pieces.
00:34:24His hands are shaking worse than dead leaves in autumn.
00:34:27I can feel how angry and heartbroken he is.
00:34:29At the time, I still didn't know just how precious those crushed white mushrooms were.
00:34:46Mark's face instantly drained of color, too terrified to speak.
00:34:51Meanwhile, Mr. Sterling, with his leopard cane, slowly walks toward the gray stones Aunt Grace smashed.
00:34:58In that moment, I think the sun fell into the stone.
00:35:02Beneath the dull gray surface, a dreamy, deep purple light shines out.
00:35:07Mr. Sterling says,
00:35:09It's an extremely rare, natural amethyst geob.
00:35:12Mr. Sterling goes crazy.
00:35:14He pulls out a thick stack of $100 bills, enough to buy half the town, and shoves it into Mom's
00:35:20hands.
00:35:21He says he'd give his entire fortune to buy all the trash stones I found.
00:35:25Seeing things go bad, Mark and Aunt Grace try to sneak away into the crowd like cowards.
00:35:34But the two men in black suits grab them by the collars and throw them hard into a filthy, stinking
00:35:41mud puddle.
00:35:46Mom's hands are shaking so much, she can barely hold the heavy stack of cash.
00:35:51She can't believe the rotten mushrooms and broken stones I casually picked up in the Blackwood Forest are actually worth
00:35:59more than gold.
00:36:01Mr. Sterling takes off his expensive top hat.
00:36:04He says,
00:36:05I'm an angel blessed by God.
00:36:07The villagers who used to point and gloss up are all shocked silent by this massive fortune.
00:36:14You just found these lying around?
00:36:17Good Lord, this child is absolutely a reincarnated angel.
00:36:22Only someone blessed by God could have such unbelievable luck.
00:36:25Mr. Sterling, I think we have an obligation to help this child get the compensation she deserves and make these
00:36:32scumbags face their punishment.
00:36:34The well-dressed lawyer steps forward. He calculates our damages at $3,500.
00:36:41That's an astrosnomical price. Enough to buy the whole town of Oakhaven.
00:36:47Mark doesn't want to pay the compensation.
00:36:50He tries to run towards a speeding coal train to hop on and escape.
00:36:58The bodyguard quickly drags him back from the train and pins him in the mud. He can't run anymore.
00:37:03The sheriff arrives and tells Aunt Grace that if she doesn't get the money together in 48 hours,
00:37:08she'll not only hand over Papa's farm that she stole, but she'll also rot in jail for the rest of
00:37:13her life.
00:37:20Late at night in Oakhaven, the wind tears at the ground like a mad beast.
00:37:23The old roof shakes. The drafty windows creak.
00:37:26But in the flickering light of the carousel lamp, Aunt Grace is scarier than the storm.
00:37:29I found a picture today. A man in a uniform. I asked who he was.
00:37:33She said it was nothing, just someone who used to live with.
00:37:35The old roof shakes. The drafty windows crink.
00:37:39The $3,500 collection notice chokes her like a noose.
00:37:45Instead of repenting, Aunt Grace just stares at the document with the red thumbprint,
00:37:49plotting to steal the blood-soaked duching money under Grandma Ada's bed.
00:37:55Lightning flashes, lighting up Aunt Grace's soaked face.
00:37:59She raises cold plizers, snips the wire fence, and sneaks onto our farm.
00:38:22It rained so hard that night.
00:38:25The noise keeps me awake.
00:38:27I get up for a drink of water. Having no idea danger is so close.
00:38:40The wind is so strong outside.
00:38:44I'm afraid the rain will ruin the wood floor, so I drag a big iron bucket over and force the
00:38:50window shut tight.
00:38:51I think closing the window will keep the storm out. But I don't notice the old frame is rotten.
00:38:58The second I turn around, Aunt Grace pries it open.
00:39:10I don't know the window is broken and might fall if opened one.
00:39:15Aunt Grace risks her life for that money.
00:39:18She squeezes inside, scraping the skin right off her waist.
00:39:25The metal clangs loudly in the dead of night.
00:39:28Aunt Grace flails like a funny puppet, desperately trying to grab something to steady herself.
00:39:35Please don't fall.
00:39:36But she grabs a wobbly shell.
00:39:43It burns my eyes!
00:39:46Grandma Ada taught me that quick live boils like a kettle when it hits water.
00:39:52Aunt Grace screams so miserably.
00:39:56But she wouldn't be hurt if she didn't sneak in through the window at midnight.
00:40:04Aunt Grace screams, smashes through the back door, and plunges into the terrestrial rain.
00:40:11The quick line boils on her face. The burning blinds her, making her stumble through the mud.
00:40:19Even the farm dog avoids that stinky pit.
00:40:23Aunt Grace used to call me a smelly beggar. But now, even the skunk living in the pit is disgusted
00:40:30by her.
00:40:31Aunt Grace crawls out of the cesspool, her mind still obsessed with the money.
00:40:37When she finds the heavy, locked metal box in the junk pile, her burned eyes beamed scarier than the demon's.
00:40:45A locked box! The money must be inside!
00:40:57The smell of gunpowder overpowers the rain, and Grandma Ada's furious shout tears through the night.
00:41:05Steve! Don't let that animal get away!
00:41:06Aunt Grace actually hits the gas through a hail of bullets.
00:41:09In the pouring rain, Aunt Grace laughs like a dying maniac in a speeding truck.
00:41:19This 5,000s is all mine!
00:41:22She hugs the metal box to her chest, thinking she holds all the wealth in the world and has finally
00:41:28beaten everyone.
00:41:32Grandma Ada holds her shotgun, anxious to chase her.
00:41:36I stand barefoot in the mud and gently tug her wet shirt to remind her.
00:41:41Uncle Thomas told me before that whenever it storms, the wooden bridge over there floods completely.
00:41:55The truck in the storm is like a wild beast out of control.
00:41:59I.E. Grace screams madly in the cab.
00:42:01When she sees the river completely swallowing the bridge, she falls into total despair.
00:42:11The crash shatters the rain.
00:42:14Aunt Grace doesn't die, but she lands somewhere worse than hell.
00:42:18Major Evans' military restricted zone.
00:42:23Money.
00:42:25My money.
00:42:26A dozen black Thompson submachine guns aim right at her head.
00:42:32Major steps forward in his raincoat with a cold face.
00:42:36I told you not to flee.
00:42:37Where do you think you're driving, Ms. Grace?
00:42:47It's over.
00:42:48It's all over.
00:42:52The stench from the truck is more nauseating than a rotting corpse in the black forest.
00:42:58It's the smell of cesspooled water mixed with Aunt Grace's bleed.
00:43:03Even as the MPs drag her into the mud, she clings to the heavy metal box.
00:43:08While Aunt Grace dreams of being rich, Grandma Ada arrives with me on her roaring tractor.
00:43:14Grandma looks at Aunt Grace in the mud and laughs with sheer contempt.
00:43:18Because the real pension money rests safely under the Hanson family's bed.
00:43:27Grandma Ada tells Major Evans the truth.
00:43:30And he pries open the heavy padlock with the dagger.
00:43:34With a loud clang, Aunt Grace's dream shatters completely.
00:44:04My once arrogant aunt and uncle.
00:44:08Now look like two cornered rabbits facing their final judgment.
00:44:14Grandma doesn't carry her scary shotgun today.
00:44:17She puts me in a new lace dress and holds my hand, stepping into the light like a guardian angel.
00:44:25Uncle Thomas' mental defenses completely break down and he roars at Aunt Grace.
00:44:31Facing 20 years in prison, he doesn't hesitate to sign his name.
00:44:44The gavel bangs down hard.
00:44:47The judge declares that the farm and all the wealth Dad left me are finally back in my hands.
00:44:53The judge usually looks so mean and everyone is scared of him.
00:45:06But today, he bends down and smiles at us.
00:45:10Just like the chubby man in town who loves giving kids candy.
00:45:17Aunt Grace used to plug her nose, disgusted by the moldy barn smell on me.
00:45:23But now, she stinks so bad that even I have to turn my head and pinch my nose.
00:45:30Remember that freezing barn you kicked Leonie into on that stormy day?
00:45:35From today on, that broken barn is yours.
00:45:39The guards can't stand Aunt Grace's sour stench.
00:45:42They drag her out, and her screams echo through the hall.
00:45:47The adults surround me, smiling and calling me a lucky little angel.
00:45:52But I don't care.
00:45:54All I know is that Grandma's hand holding mine is big and warm.
00:45:58And no one will ever force me into a freezing barn again.
00:46:04I used to think this dirt could only grow hard rocks and starved bugs.
00:46:09Only today do I realize it can grow so much wheat that looks like pure gold.
00:46:17Grandma laughed so loudly today.
00:46:23Good girl, look.
00:46:24These are all gifts from God.
00:46:27That neither of us notices Miss Ella staring at me.
00:46:30She looks exactly like Aunt Grace used to when she wanted to hit me.
00:46:35Miss Ella yells at James.
00:46:37They want this most fertile land in town.
00:46:40Miss Ella looks at me so fiercely,
00:46:42as if she wants to rush over and eat me alive.
00:46:52If that damn old hack won't give it to us, we'll just take it ourselves.
00:46:57Take it?
00:46:57How?
00:46:58That land is in the name of that little bastard Leonie!
00:47:05Then we'll find a way to switch the deeds.
00:47:08Greedy snakes can never fill their bottomless pit of desire.
00:47:12Blood ties don't bring family love, they just become an excuse to steal.
00:47:22Greedy James brings his dark secrets and knocks on the back door of power, just like a sewer rat.
00:47:33I only learn later that there's a scary magic in the adult world.
00:47:39If you secretly give the mayor a special gift, your wishes come true.
00:47:47James uses tobacco and money to trade for the Fertilile farm under my name.
00:48:05James, your appetite is way bigger than your dying brother's.
00:48:11All right.
00:48:24Let's go for it.
00:48:29I'm sorry for you.
00:48:49Take it, James.
00:48:51With this requisition order, that fertile land is yours by sunrise tomorrow.
00:49:12This morning, a lot of people suddenly come to our farm.
00:49:18It's James, Miss Ella, and the mayor.
00:49:22They look really mean.
00:49:23They use big adult words I don't understand.
00:49:27I just see Grandma Ada shaking with anger because they want to trade a barren wasteland
00:49:32for our golden wheat field.
00:49:37Trade?
00:49:37James, do you think I'm an idiot?
00:49:40Not even weeds can grow on that land.
00:49:43Don't waste your breath on her.
00:49:44Quick, pull up the boundary markers and put ours in.
00:49:47This is our land now.
00:49:48Grandma nailed that marker herself.
00:49:50When it falls, my heart hurts so much.
00:49:54You robbers!
00:49:55I'll fight you to the death!
00:49:58Those two guns are so, so close to Grandma's head.
00:50:02For the first time, I realize a hunting rifle isn't scary at all.
00:50:05Mrs. Hanson, calm down, or we'll arrest you for obstructing justice.
00:50:10No!
00:50:11Don't kill my Grandma!
00:50:12No!
00:50:13What's really scary is when others point guns at us.
00:50:23Just sign it, Mrs. Hanson.
00:50:25You don't want this little girl watching you get taken away, do you?
00:50:28Grandma Ada looks at me crying in fear.
00:50:32She closes her eyes and agrees to sign the contract.
00:50:39I grip Grandma's clothes tight.
00:50:41I'm worried she's in danger.
00:50:43I see her eyes turn red, and my heart aches.
00:50:46But I don't know what to do.
00:50:53Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
00:50:56You old hag!
00:50:58Take this unlucky little stray and get all my property right now!

01:12:55the midday sun. It instantly drives away all the cold and fear in the mine. Dad carefully
01:13:02checks me for injuries. Luckily, Miss Ella and the others haven't hurt me yet. Dad takes
01:13:08me out of the pitch black mine. Grandma Ada and the others find us too. Grandma Ada checks
01:13:14every inch of me. She only relaxes after making sure I'm not hurt.
01:13:20Leonie! My sweet baby, are you okay?
01:13:25Grandma Ada furiously scolds Miss Ella and James. Sheriff Harry arrives and arrests them.
01:13:32The bad guys are taken away. No! Mother, please forgive me! It's over. It's all over.
01:13:39No! And Dad is finally back. I hold Grandma's hand tightly with one hand and grip Dad broad,
01:13:47warm hand with the other. Dad promises me he will come back.
01:13:55Grandma Ada tells me, Dad is going to catch the bad guy. The one behind this whole conspiracy.
01:14:03Dad tells me to stay here and be good. He has to go take care of something.
01:14:21Glane messes everything up. After finding out Dad's identity, he decides to flee immediately.
01:14:30Dammit! Why does he have a military background?!
01:14:40McLane jumps into his car in a panic. But they don't even make it out of the estate gates.
01:14:46Get us out of here. Get us out of here. As fast as you can. Now!
01:14:55My dad blocks their way. McLane gives the order. And the car doesn't slow down.
01:15:01They want to run my dad over. Facing the speeding beast, Dad doesn't panic.
01:15:07He calmly pulls out his gun and shoots.
01:15:16Dad's perfect braking marksmanship flips the bad guy's car.
01:15:21McLane can't escape.
01:15:22Don't kill me! I'll give you 10 million!
01:15:25Keep your money. You'll need it to buy your way into hell.
01:15:31McLane stands in the dock in a prison uniform. Totally stripped of his former arrogance.
01:15:39Dad not only catches McLane himself, but also gathers all the evidence of his crimes.
01:15:46No elite lawyer can save him now.
01:15:51McLane, do you have anything to say?
01:15:53No. I confess to my crimes.
01:15:58In the end, McLane is sentenced to life in prison. And stripped of all his assets.
01:16:15As for Miss Ella and James, they get their due punishment too.
01:16:20Thirty years in prison. They deserve it.
01:16:24All the bad guys are locked up.
01:16:26And I finally have my dad back.
01:16:29A much better life is waiting for us.
01:16:33Dad's hand is so warm, and I feel so comfortable right now.
01:16:38He promises he'll never leave my side again.
01:16:41Tomorrow is Thanksgiving. Our family must have a proper celebration.
01:16:53The fire cracklers, and the smell of roast turkey and pumpkin pie fills the whole house.
01:17:00This is a Thanksgiving dinner I couldn't even dare to dream of.
01:17:06Grandma Ada and the family call me their little angel.
01:17:09They say they have this life now because of me.
01:17:12My dad also thanks Grandma Ada, because she took me in.
01:17:16If it weren't for her, I wouldn't be here today.
01:17:26Even without blood ties, I've considered them my real family for a long time.
01:17:38This is the only thing your mom left behind.
01:17:40She got separated from her family in a dust storm.
01:17:43Her wish was to find them.
01:17:45Now I'm passing it on to you.
01:17:46Mom?
01:17:47I take my mom's belonging, and beside me, Grandma Ada suddenly freezes as if she's been electrocuted.
01:17:57Oh my god! Leonie! Your mother is my biological daughter who went missing 30 years ago!
01:18:04I gave her this pocket watch! You are Margaret's child!
01:18:07Nobody saw this coming. My mom is actually Aide Grandma Ada's daughter.
01:18:16I hug Grandma Aide tight.
01:18:19No, she's my real grandma. She's my actual family.
01:18:22Grandma Ada, you're my real grandma.
01:18:25Yes, my sweet girl. I'm your grandma. Forever.
01:18:29Thank god. We truly are family.
01:18:32Not only do I have my dad back, but Grandma Ada is my biological grandmother.
01:18:37I'm so lucky and so happy.
01:18:39Happy Thanksgivings, everyone! Let's eat!
01:18:46The nightmare is over.
01:18:48Thanks to the oil field, everyone in the village can afford to eat and wear warm clothes.
01:18:55Dad plays with me every day. I feel like the happiest kid in the world.
01:19:02And my Grandma Ada, she no longer needs her mean disguise.
01:19:07She is now the most generous old lady in the whole village.
01:19:11Take a break if you're tired.
01:19:16Grandma Ada!
01:19:20Hi!
01:19:21Grandma Ada!
01:19:24Oh my! My little Leona looks so pretty today!
01:19:31Leona needs to go to school in the city. I'm taking her there myself.
01:19:35Dad, will the city people bully me?
01:19:38Don't worry. Dad will protect you.
01:19:41I am so incredibly happy now. All the misfortunes of the past are gone.
01:19:46I feel so blessed because I finally have a home that will never fall apart.
