- Was school good?
- Super !

Ah, Mathias hit me.

Typed? Where?

It's nothing. He hits everyone.

- I have a surprise.
- A candy!

The apple first.

- "Apple".
- Yes !

- Shall we go see Lenuta?
- I like Lenuta.

- Hello, Lenuta.
- Hello, Clara.

Hello, Johanna.

How are you ?

And you ?

- A coffee?
- I have to go.

Did you call home?

Yes, but no one picked up.

Your father called me.

Ionuţ had to run away,
he is nowhere to be found.

Ionut?

How so ?

I knew it would happen.

I won't call for two days
in five years, and that's it.

You know,
This river runs right to my house.

Is your house on the water?

Non.

I was talking about my village.
Where my family lives.

Ionuţ and papi?

Yes, papi and Ionuţ.

I will have to
go to their house for a bit.

In summer?

No, not in summer.

A little before.

Don't be sad.

It won't be long.

Not long, how? An hour?

Only one hour left.

But I won't stay long.

Come on, let's go.

But I want to stay with you!

Me too, with you.

But I'll be back soon.

Promised.

- Who loves you?
- You !

Ah, you see.

Our secret.

Secret.

Do you want to taste?

It's good.

You don't want it?

That's what I don't want.
No ham!

Hold.

Are we going to the playground?

- Yes.
- Right away ?

- For now, we're eating.
- After ?

- After.
- More on ira?

It's ira.

Hi, Dad.

And what does the police say?

Have you looked everywhere?

Okay, Dad, I'll wait.

All right.

Hello, I'm here!

Dad is home!

Hi, Mom.

You're not eating?

M. Tillmann,
I would like to talk to you.

Clara is coming home tomorrow.

But just for an hour,
obviously.

You have something
planned, Clara?

You can go play.

I have to go home.

When ?

Tomorrow.

I have to go home tomorrow.

Just for a few days.

M. Tillmann,
I never asked you for anything.

I spoke to my friend Lenuţa.

She can go
pick up Johanna from school

and keep it in your absence.

You caught me off guard.

I'll think about it.

Johanna likes him.

M. Tillmann,

My son disappeared from home.

I have to go.

Hold,
so you don't sleep alone.

I love you very much.

Me too,
I love you very, very much.

Mademoiselle !

So put your luggage in the hold.

I would prefer to keep it.

Well, let's see!

This baggage goes in the hold.
Let me do it.

It's good because it's you.

- Where are you going?
- To Dubova.

Is it you whose child died?

Non.

Sorry, I didn't mean to.

Yes, Dad.

Did you find it?

Where?

I'll meet you at the hospital.

Vali's son hanged himself.
He missed his mother too much.

She came back from Germany on purpose.

When Ionuţ disappeared,
Your father was scared.

Fear that he committed suicide,
him too.

I came back this summer.

I couldn't take it anymore
to toil like a mule.

I don't care about their money.

Clara, I have children too.

I came home for them.

A kick in the ass,

a slap here and there,

It shows that you are present.

That they are not...

alone in the world.

You too have left.

For a while, yes.

Not anymore.

Hi, Dad.

Nice to see you.

Ionut.

How are you ?

How are you feeling?

Are you in pain?

He is tired.

Ionut, what happened?

You don't talk to me anymore?

It's tiredness.

It will pass.

What is this crowd?

Patience, ladies,
she's going to arrive.

Is that it, my friend?

Let's see.

Good morning.

Good morning.
Look, your mom is here.

Maybe she'll bring you back tomorrow.

Would that make you happy?

Just a moment, the doctor will arrive.

She will take stock with you,
if she hasn't seen grandpa.

- Can I see her?
- Of course.

Wait for her in front of the door,

She will explain to you.

Maybe she'll let you out,
if it gets better!

Don't just stand there,
We're going to change the bandages.

Get out, we're going to get into a fight,
if she finds us here.

- THANKS.
- But it's not worth it!

Come on !

Good morning.

There you go... everything's fine.
Well, relatively well.

He still failed
lose his fingers.

It remains to be seen how this will develop.

We stabilized it, hydrated it.
What more can I say?

I had already seen your father.

- Thank you so much.
- No, none of that here.

But I insist.

You're going to make me angry.

Really, everything is fine.

Visits from 11 a.m. tomorrow,
the little one is fine.

Madame Lupascu!

I don't know
if your father told you...

People from the police
and social assistance

came to talk to your son.

We'll have to deal with them.

They have already come to take
a child to put him in a home.

How so ?

Take my son from me?

Without parents,
he is considered an orphan.

But I am his mother.

Exactly,
You did well to come.

What are you doing ?

Leave it, it's clean.

Why did he run away?

Why did you call Lenuţa?
and not me?

You know very well why.

Dear listeners, the dedications
in songs continue

on Radio Danube.

From M. Popi de Dubova

for his daughter Maria
who works in Austria,

we listen to "Doïna d'autrefois",

interpreted
by Ionuţ Bogdan Bistrian...

It's complicated
to come to Romania.

I come because I have to.

I'm too scared
to lose my job.

You know that?

People depend on me there.

And I depend on them.

Or rather us.

I'm sorry we're a burden.

What happened?

Why go to the Danube?

Hi, Bogdan. When are you coming?

Pardon ?

No, he's not well.

Honestly, Bogdan.

You want to talk
of our child on the phone?

OK, you'll tell him. Bye.

"Johanna loves Clara."

"Johanna loves Clara..."

What will you offer Clara?
when will she come back?

A beautiful drawing.

What else?

A...

crown.

- A crown, nice.
- A beautiful dress.

And what good things will we cook for him?

- Pasta with cheese!
- Downright.

We miss you very much. Hi!

Thank you for your message,
M. Tillmann.

Ionuţ is not doing too well.
He is in the hospital.

Good morning.

Maria Tudose,
of child protection.

Clara Lupascu.

I have already discussed
with your father in the hospital.

Let's go...

Ionuţ Lupaşcu, minor,
is in your sole custody?

Yes, this is my child.

Reported missing to the police,

then found,
treated in an emergency, etc.

Thank God he is safe and sound.

Was he alone with his grandfather?

Do you work in Germany?

Yes, occasionally.

Occasionally...

How many days a year?

It depends.

But here you get unemployment benefit.

Non.

I lost my teaching job
five years ago.

How many days a year
Are you with your son?

Mrs. Lupaşcu,
We see this every day.

You have to give
custody of the child to your father.

Otherwise, at the next report,

he could be placed in a home.

Do you understand?

You must entrust
custody of his grandfather.

It's the law, don't leave
without signing the papers.

Sir says
that he can support the child.

He is willing and healthy.

That's it, that's all.

Here are the necessary documents.

Here is the notification.
I need your signature at the bottom.

It repeats what I said.

- Is it just a notification?
- That's it.

You recognize
to have been informed.

If you stay, everything is fine.

But if you leave again,

you will have to sign the papers.

GOOD.

I'm leaving.

I hope he pulls through.

I am his mother and he is my son.

No one denies it.

Yes, she did, just now.

You turned him against me!

He avoids looking at me.
I don't recognize him anymore.

What did you tell him about me?

You think he needed that,

after more than a year of absence?

When are you leaving again?

You don't spit on money.

You're very happy
that I send you some.

My difficulties abroad,
you don't care.

Take it with you.

I can't.

I can't.

They call me to the toilet
day and night,

I have no life.

You don't want to, yes!

It's easier without him.

You abandoned him.

You left him here all alone!

I left it with you.

Wait, you tell him
that I abandon him?

So that's it?

You want to take my son away from me!

I take care of him,
I'm reporting you.

No, it's me!

I'm the one who pays
shopping and your clothes.

Who sends him to school? Me.

But no one sees that.
It's a no-brainer.

And we come
call me a bad parent?

You treat me
of a bad mother?

This child,
You almost killed him!

You're not ashamed!

Do you want to know what got into him?

You're as scared as I am.
of the answer.

Johanna ?

Did you hide?

Do you know where my cell phone is?

Ah, you're here!

The Habsburg Empire
supported the wave of emigration,

but this one held above all

to demography
Germanic regions

and impoverishment
of their inhabitants,

logical consequence
of a series of...

Good morning.

Clara ?

My God, it's been so long.

What a pleasure to see you!

And your son?

He's fine,
I brought him back from the hospital.

He's still a little shaken.

So much the better, we were worried.

I would like to talk to you.

- To me?
- Yes.

I'm listening to you.

- One on one?
- Of course.

At school,
Do you have teachers?

Yes, as you see.
But we don't have any more students.

They are rarely in class.

NGOs are making an effort
to make them come,

but it's difficult.

What are you getting at?

You may need
of a contract?

Not even a starter.

I need this job.

Ionuţ needs me here.

I thought I would stay.

At least contractual.

My poor thing,
it's a casual salary,

160 euros gross.

And I have zero positions.

At the time,
I also fired Crăiţa and Dorel.

I really can't do anything.

I understand.

I was making inquiries.

Go see the inspection.

They can send you
elsewhere in the sector.

You have all the qualifications.

The inspector is from my village.

I'll call him.

- Thank you so much.
- I'll keep you posted.

Be kind to her,
it can work.

How are you, champ?

So you wanted to beat
the Guinness Book of Records?

No, but we can
to speak of an exploit.

That's good, you're brave.

Seriously, are you encouraging him?

No, definitely not.
Don't do it again!

She was not feeling very good
on the phone, your mother.

Let's see your war wounds.

Nothing incredible.

I had two big bruises.

You should have seen that!

It will attract girls
like a magnet!

Huh, honey?

I was saying to my son

that these little scars
would be a girl magnet.

Right?

Am I right? But yes!

Do you want to come to our house for Christmas?

We will cut down the tree, between men.
What do you think?

I don't know.

I'll see.

"I'll see"...

Listen, my dear,
you'll have to assert yourself.

- I would come.
- I like that better!

- Is he talking to Bogdan?
- Yes.

So much the better.

It's crazy how he knows how to do it.

The little one eats out of his hand.

This is his father.

You know how it is.

He invited him to England for Christmas.

Very well, let him go.

He will know his little sister.

You're talking nonsense.

Where did his phone go?

When are you leaving?

I don't know.

I know you by heart.

I'm making an effort.

I know.

Look, your boat from Germany.

Stop sulking.

And where is your phone?

Come on, look at me.

I'm trying, you know?

Non.

Non ?

No, I don't know.

Try to understand.

I do all this for you,
I think about you all the time.

- Your father too.
- Let go of me.

Do you want to eat?

- Mom helps you.
- Why are you talking to me like that?

Comment ?

Like a baby.
I get it, you know.

Dad doesn't care.

He has his family, he has Sofia.

Don't talk about your father like that.

- He has his faults, but he loves you.
- Like you, huh?

Only remotely.

You have...

What is her name?

Johanna.

Why did you come?

To give you a clear conscience?

I don't need this.

You should have
leave us alone.

Why are you talking to me like that?

Answer.

Johanna wants to talk to you.

Vas-y.
Do you think that bothers me?

My phone is in the Danube.

I no longer have a phone, because
that he fell into the Danube.

Hello ?

How is my sweet girl?

I am happy
that you have fun.

Yes, Lenuţa is great.

Well done. Brilliant.

A very, very big hug.

Hello!

Hello, Mr. Tillmann.
Everything is fine, finally...

It's not going so well.

I must stay
a few more days.

No. Yes, I understand.

Just a few more days.

I will not disappoint you.

THANKS.

Take it while it's hot.

I'll ask at the bar, at Gil's,

if they are looking for someone.

It's not going well, no.

You won't go to those drunks' houses.

You see yourself
in the middle of these scoundrels?

Where else can I work?

In the fields?

It's not the season.

At the store, at Nita's?

It is not profitable.

You won't find anything in the village.

Even the mayor
works abroad.

For what ?

Otherwise in town,
by taking the shuttle.

There is a shoe factory.

Ask the school instead.

Hello, Mrs. Lupaşcu.

Good morning.

Come on, I don't bite.

I have already passed by
with the papers for custody.

But your father
refused to sign them.

Talk to him about it.

You never know.

Your son did
a suicide attempt.

If he succeeds the next one,
you and I will be at fault.

Please sign the papers
before leaving.

And thank you for the welcome.

It's healing. Are you still in pain?

Before,
I measured your feet like this.

They had to be this size.

Like Johanna's.

I want to go back to school.

Stay here a little longer.
With mom.

What if it's no?

Okay, if that's what you want,

you go-and.

You'll have less to catch up on!

What did they want to know,
these people?

Who is Mrs. Tudose?

Nothing.

If you have abandoned me.

For what ?

Just so you know.

What did you tell them?

I answered.
Did I do something wrong?

I said you got divorced,

that dad works in England,
where he is with my stepsister,

and that you work in Germany.

Did they ask you about the boat?

What did you answer?

"I was playing
and the current carried me away."

Why did you leave?
on the Danube?

I wanted to join you.

I was fed up

that you are not there,

that you left.

Then the cell phone and the oar
fell into the water.

I didn't know what to do.

When it got dark,

I hoped for one thing

that makes you feel guilty,

feel the same as me, alone.

I'm sorry.

Mom, don't scold you.

After at the hospital,

I was told that you abandoned me.

It's over now.

Hi, how are you?

Shall I call you back?

Hello, Lenuta.

I just wanted
to have news.

How is Johanna?

It's Clara on the phone!

Do you want to talk to him?

She sings.

Is she calling you tonight?
There, she doesn't want to.

If you want to talk to him.
She's fine.

Hello.

Did you see?

It's settled.

Sorry.

What ?

To cause you grief.

I'm going to tell you a story.

No, read me a story.

But the book is at your house.

Come on, I'll tell you about it.

She can't read,
The book is here. No problem.

No, read me a story.

Don't be sad, honey.

I wish I had you with me.

Me too.

I will be with you soon.

Look what I have!

A book.

Come on,
make yourself comfortable.

And I'm going to read you a story.

SO...

Once upon a time

a woman who wished very much
have a small child.

But she didn't know
where to take it.

She went to see an old witch

and said to him:

"I would like to have a grandchild.

Could you tell me
Where can I get this?"

“Take this grain of barley.

Plant it in a flower pot.

And you will see what you will see."

The woman went home.

She planted the barley grain

and immediately, a...

Hello, Lenuta.

Johanna has her eurythmy class.
Prepare his slippers for him.

Women.

Don't go
without leaving things in order.

It looks like you've grown up
from sleeping too much.

Eat or you'll miss the bus.

I take him to school.

Do you hear that?

It is necessary
that I use my license.

Come on, eat.

In your eyes I read
all your love for me

You who would be delighted
to hold me close to you

In your eyes I read
all your love for me

You are my whole life,
I can't go on without you...

HI.

Do you have a girlfriend?

She's at school, right?

Come on, tell us.

- Ionut!
- You're lying!

- You're going to leave.
- But no !

Let's go see the inspector,
it'll be OK.

Mom promises you.

Good morning.

Good morning.

We spoke on the phone.

I am Clara Lupaşcu.

From Magda's side.

I told you within a month.

I thought
that you would like to see me.

I'm listening to you.

I am a school teacher.

I speak German,

specialized in conversation.

My former manager says

that you could
find me a job.

And why not her?

She spoke to me
of a restructuring plan.

Indeed, times are difficult,
Madame... Lupascu.

I need this position
to take care of my son.

We all have children.

Ionut.

Wait for me in the hallway.

Madame,
I will be kind to you.

I talked about it with Magda.
We know each other well.

I can't do anything now.

Maybe within a month.

Leave this to me
and I will call you back.

But within a month, or even two.

- A month?
- Is it too late?

Or maybe too soon.

At the start of the school year in September,
we would have more chances.

I want to help you,
but you know the situation,

budgets are tight.

It would be at minimum wage.

I see.

THANKS.

I'm going to leave.

Because of me?

Non,

not because of you.

Because of all this hassle.

And because of me.

Can I come?

Of course.

When you're older,
you will come to my house.

No, not now.
Are you taking me with you?

I can't.

I don't have anything to welcome you with.

I'm going to change jobs
to live alone.

There, you can come whenever you want.

Don't lie to me.

You're leaving for Johanna.

But if you leave now,

you can come back this summer.

I will try.

I promise you.

- When are you leaving?
- Tomorrow.

I have to go,
otherwise I lose my job.

I'll be back in a month.

I will take this teaching position.

I'll save up and we'll get by.

It's up to you.

I have to go,

because if I stay,

I won't be able to leave anymore.

Ionuţ will go to Bogdan's house for Christmas.

It'll be OK.

He's grown into a big boy.

One, two,

three, four.

One, two,

three,

four.

Mom would stay
if she had the choice.

I will come back for sure.

I've heard that before.

I know.

You saw, I drove

without breaking down any fence
nor hit a cow.

I will keep my word.

I have a surprise for you.

We are now equipped.

We might even see each other.

See you in two months!
Until then, we'll talk.

Don't lose it, okay?

Take care of your grandfather.

He will take care of you too.

It'll be OK.

It'll be OK.

Five million Romanians
work abroad,

leaving behind them, in the country,
number of their children.
