Greta!
Greta!
Greta!
Greta!
Greta!
Are you crazy? You can’t just run off!
When I call you, you have to listen.
And get up. Up, up, up, up, up.
Up! Good, and...
There.
Yes.
They’re all unripe. I won’t eat them.
No? – No, I won’t eat them.
Okay. – They don’t taste good.
Unripe apples don’t taste good.
Mama!
Hello. – Hello.
Come.
Bye. – Bye.
Mommy!
Mommy! Mommy!
Mommy!
Mommy! Mommy!
Mommy!
Mommy!
Mommy!
Mommy!
The caregiver had a slipped disc.
I just took him to the bus to Poland.
We need someone to get him out of bed in the morning, wash him.
Ideally from 8:00 to 11:30 a.m.
Yes.
I understand. Still, thank you.
We can’t either. Three are sick.
My father weighs about 80 kilos. Could you transfer him?
Yes, of course. If he cooperates, no problem.
Okay. That’s fine, right?
Yes. – Yes.
And have you, have you worked with stroke patients before?
Yes, with my grandma, with my mom.
I’ve been to Germany a few times.
I worked in Hamburg, in Munich.
Those people had strokes too. – Oh. Okay.
Have you been to Berlin before?
Yes, a few times, but not as a caregiver.
What did you train in? – Mouth shut.
I’m a trained cook. – Ah, cook.
That’s good. – Practical.
Any hobbies? What do you enjoy doing?
Yes, reading,
uh, walking,
uh, biking, fishing...
And of course cooking too, right?
And you don’t have a driver’s license? – Unfortunately not.
I mean, do you have more questions? – No.
I’d like to know: Do you smoke?
Yes, but not much, and I smoke outside.
That’s good. – Not indoors.
And alcohol? Do you drink?
Not at all. – Very good.
How many cigarettes? – How many?
Yes. – Sorry for the question.
How many cigarettes do you smoke?
Up to five a day. If that! – Five at most. That’s fine.
Okay. – Okay.
Did your contract get extended?
I think so. Just waiting on approval from the staff council.
Things look good for me too.
Be glad you don’t have to raise a child.
Who even wants kids? You give birth, they hate you,
and then you die.
Greta, come.
Come!
Will you buy these?
What would I do with them? – They’re real stones.
Flowers?
Don’t need them. Get lost! Don’t you have parents?
Spread it nicely.
Get lost, you little jerks. –
Strange, I didn’t put on any sunscreen.
Doesn’t matter, you’ll buy some there.
Sure... Just strange that I forgot.
This can’t be happening.
It has to be somewhere.
Damn. I forgot my eye drops too.
– It’s my mother.
I’ll run to the pharmacy. Be right back. – Wait.
Sorry.
Why do you still have my suitcase?
Why... Why didn’t you check it in?
I’m flying without you.
What?
I’m flying alone.
I think it’s better this way.
Hang on...
Can you explain what’s going on? – I can’t do this anymore.
I can’t do this anymore, you understand? I can’t keep going like this.
I’m done.
Philippe...
Are you insane? – Enough, enough.
Philippe...
No, Mom, I...
I can’t come. We’re already in Marseille.
Don’t get upset. I’m taking care of it.
I’m taking care of it.
What happened?
I lifted your father and now my foot’s messed up.
And I don’t know how things will go from here.
Where are you now? – I’m in the hospital.
You can’t just leave my parents alone.
I told your father I can’t keep working.
Is Marek there? – Marek, phone.
Marek. –
Marek, if you’re feeling better... My parents are alone right now.
Okay.
The caregiver’s in the hospital... Marek?
Okay, so we’re currently clearing out an apartment.
My uncle’s place. Hold on. Yeah? Okay?
Unfortunately, we’re not able to extend your contract.
Even though you tried to be punctual and organized.
But there’s nothing we can do about it.
We’re not able to keep you on.
But I always took the early shifts.
Yes, but they dumped the costs on us.
We don’t even know how to move forward. Sorry.
Everything’s gotten more expensive.
They said I’d get a permanent position. – Yeah, they told me that too.
But the managing director has the final say.
He has to approve it.
Or not approve it. – And why Claudia?
She got extended. – Claudia’s been here longer.
We can’t prioritize people who’ve been here the shortest.
My hands are tied. It’s all about numbers.
They want results. – What am I supposed to do? I have a child.
Yeah, that makes things, uh... not any easier.
This is Philippe’s voicemail.
Leave a message, I’ll call you back.
Hello. – Hello.
It's pretty dry.
It hasn’t rained in ages.
The water’s never been this low.
Don’t we know each other?
My dad helps your parents in the garden.
Ah, right.
Want one?
No, thanks.
Or maybe.
I don’t usually smoke.
Me neither.
Thanks.
– You can look around.
Here. – Nope.
You can add that. Look, there are more up front.
Really?
I thought it had four leaves.
What did you find? – Hello.
Hello. – Hello.
Greta wanted to give you something. – I wanted to give you this. Here.
That’s sweet. – And a bouquet.
Look what I found.
What? – A snail shell.
Is there anything inside? – No.
You sure? – Mhm.
Greta!
Don’t break it.
Have you been here before?
Uh, a long time ago. Yeah.
It’s nice here.
I’m trying to tidy up.
Did your dad build the furniture too?
Yeah, but only the wooden ones.
These two? – Yeah.
There are more, but they’re not here.
What kind of wood is it? – Cherry.
The lamp’s his too.
He built me a tiny one for my dollhouse back then.
Want something to drink? – Yeah.
The sculptures are by my mom.
Here. – Thanks.
Are you an architect too? – I studied it.
Right now I help people find special apartments.
And you? What do you do? – I work in a kitchen.
In a kitchen. As a cook? – I wanted to be a bookseller.
What do you read? – Crime novels.
Should we sit down? – Mhm.
What’s your name, actually? – Anja.
It’s a Russian nickname for Anna. My grandma was Russian.
And your name’s Isabell? – Yeah.
Beautiful name. I like it.
I used to see you here a lot. Do you remember me?
No, not really. – No?
I wasn’t here much.
After graduation I went straight to France...
Your parents once threw a party in the barn.
You wore a black– and– yellow striped dress.
The mayor thanked your dad for the water pipes.
He really liked your father.
Mom, why are you still giving him solid food?
Mom, I don’t get it. He needs liquid food or he’ll choke.
Where’s Marek?
Come on, Rolf, take a sip. Feeling better?
Yes. – Okay, good.
Mom...
I thought you were in Marseille? – I was.
Yeah, he loves himself.
I mean, recording that and sending it to you...
Now he’s totally losing it.
Look, that cap there.
Oh, here he comes.
Ms. Inge, I’m heading out shopping. – Alright, what are you getting?
All set. – And a laxative for my dad.
Okay. – See you later, yeah? Bye.
This is Philippe’s voicemail.
Leave a message...
This is Philippe’s voicemail.
Leave a message...
And? – Yeah.
– Well, hmm.
Air filter and spark plug are new.
Yeah, you can feel the age.
Everything’s rusting underneath. – That’s not rust.
How low can you go?
I can do 550.
Okay.
Brakes are shot too.
They don’t grip properly. – No problem.
You can tighten them.
300 and I’ll take it now. – Nope.
340, okay? – No.
It doesn’t accelerate properly. – Yes it does. 550’s my limit.
No, it doesn’t. – I’m selling because I have to.
No, I don’t accept that. 350 is fair, right?
No, forget it. – Are you serious?
What now?
I’m not selling anymore. – What’s that supposed to mean?
Hey, wait. Hey! Just a sec, okay?
Dude!
Got enough? – Yeah, come on.
Greta.
Come on! – Greta.
Go! – Hey, what was that!
Man! Who was that? – Hey!
Man, seriously. – Unbelievable.
Fighting continues in Ukraine.
Multiple explosions have been reported...
Greta.
Rent’s going to be late. I need to find a new job.
Again?
Greta, brush your teeth!
Now I’ll get Booti.
Come on, get up.
Ow– ow.
Ow– ow– ow.
Shouldn’t we just sell the house out there, Papa?
I can still go sometimes, pick fruit and check on things...
But if no one’s there, the house will fall apart.
It won’t fall apart. – Well, it kind of will.
Come on! – The house is full of flies.
So what? – I know,
it’s not easy and you don’t want to sell.
No one’s getting it. I’m not selling.
I understand, Papa.
But I can’t take care of that house. Rolf.
That’s your problem, not mine.
Alright, let’s keep going. Where is it? Here.
This is the account ending in 790 you want to close.
You’ll need to sign here. Try the signature once,
see if it works.
Okay. Wonderful.
Then sign here. Is that okay? – Yes.
I’ll hold it for you.
Mhm. Good.
I checked your subscriptions. No one reads those 1000 papers.
Can you help me out? – Like with the gutter?
A few years ago you’d have fixed that in two days.
Now no one does it. The windows are leaking.
– I don’t have time.
That’s my design. I’ll never sell it.
I know it’s your design. – I’ll never sell it.
Say what you want. I won’t sell. I won’t sell.
Hello.
Are you Anja? – Yes.
Uwe.
Shall we go in? – Yes.
Can you work hard, or call in sick often? – No, I can.
Relationship status? Husband? Kids? – None.
Nice and quiet, right? So... –
We open at 4, prep starts an hour before, close at 11. Sorry.
Yes, Delta Bowling?
Mmh.
Yes, 5p.m. Two lanes reserved.
Alright, see you soon. – The ad said morning shift.
4p.m. is the morning shift. Weekends start at ten.
Two days off per week.
Got technical skills? – Yes.
You’ll handle the counter. Payments, shoe cleaning, etc.
And lane care. So:
Clean everything, remove dust, etc.
These lanes are washed and oiled daily.
For protection. Friction creates heat.
When a plastic ball rolls across the lane, it generates heat.
Without oil, the ball burns.
You’ll have to toss it. 200 euros down the drain.
Okay.
André, show the young lady the oiling.
I’ll handle the contract meanwhile. – Yes.
They did it so that what’s meant to be hidden gets revealed.
– As an image?
No, the one it was meant to be hidden from
was supposed to notice it. – Aha.
The secret as an extra thrill. – Mhm.
Want one? – Where’d you find that guy?
Little alcoholic. – Come on, enough. Would you like one?
Now tell me why you should get the job.
I’ve got a great network.
I’ve got a really strong network.
I already know two people looking for exactly this kind of house.
It’s a very special house.
What’s so special about it?
I’ll accept any offer over five million.
Thanks for the trust.
Hello.
If you want, I’ll leave again.
Do what you want. I’m out of here.
Isabell, you didn’t even want to travel.
You don’t like traveling. You only did it for me.
You wanted to stay with your parents.
So now I have to defend myself too? – No, but...
You know...
When I was there, alone in the hotel,
I realized our life isn’t what I imagined.
I asked myself what happened to us.
You want to know what happened? – Yes.
You left me at the airport— that’s what happened!
That’s not what I mean. I mean before that.
I’m talking about our life. That’s what I mean.
Have you ever asked what I want?
Never. – Never.
It’s always about you. You decide.
– That’s not true! – Didn’t you decide we’d live here?
– Excuse me? – You had too few jobs in Paris.
There was more work in Berlin. – Stop it!
That’s why we’re here.
Stop twisting everything.
You always twist things. Do you even notice?
Want to know the truth?
You want to impress your father.
You want to prove to him what a great architect you are.
That’s the real reason.
It’s not my fault things didn’t work out for you.
Can I help you?
Best to put it on the cot back there.
Wait.
That works. Yeah.
Now the...
Maybe put those things with the other boxes.
Want some apple juice?
Yes.
You could build multiple apartments in here.
My parents actually planned that too.
Thanks.
Do you like working as a cook?
The people are nice.
Why didn’t you do something with books? – I barely have time for coffee.
Greta and I once lived on 250 euros a month.
For everything. Diapers, food. I don’t want that again.
I even sold vitamins once.
I took the stuff myself and couldn’t poop properly anymore.
Are you seeing someone? – Yes.
Is he an architect too? – Engineer.
Shall we?
You’re beautiful.
That should go back there too.
Fifty, two back.
Drinks are at the bar, okay?
Yeah? – Hi. Can you raise lane six?
No, it’s only for little kids. – I’ve used it before though.
Maybe for a birthday party. Not for adults.
44. – Too small? Can you give me 44?
Yes. – Go ahead.
– Delta Bowling?
Please. – Thanks.
Until 11 p.m.
Alright, noted. See you later.
I’ll help them out. You okay here? – Yes.
First off, they’re not balls, they’re bowling balls.
In America, all sports use balls. Bullets come from guns.
Bullets come from rifles.
Let’s start with this one— see if the weight feels right.
Sixty...
Here.
Two, five... – One...
– Forty.
Greta, come on.
Faster! Faster!
Got money for ice cream? – Get lost, scram.
Got money? I had my tonsils out, I need to eat lots of ice cream.
Really, it’s true.
One strawberry ice cream. – We don’t have that.
Then vanilla. – Also no.
Then chocolate.
Bye. – Bye.
Mmmh.
Mmmh.
Out, before it drips everywhere. – It’s melting outside.
Out now!
Speed cameras today on the B1 near Lichtenow.
And on the B2 in Freienried...
If you’ve seen anything else, feel free to let us know.
The number is 0331...
7449.
Later today it’ll be...
Should I give you a lift?
Are the tomatoes ready? – Yes.
Can you bring them over? – Yes.
Great. Just toss them into the bowl. – Yes.
And if you could chop the lettuce.
Yes. – That’d be great. And some basil.
A little...
Hey! What was that? –
Hey!
– Catch me if you can!
– Hey! What are you doing up there?
Enjoy your meal. – You too.
I keep a close eye on our customers.
Caught one the other day
trying to pocket two pairs of shoes.
He didn’t want me to call the police,
so he slapped 400 euros on the counter.
Well.
I’ve got to stay morally strong too.
Want me to give you a lift later and explain a few things?
No thanks, I’m good.
And how’s Dad? – He was awake for a bit
and wants to go to bed.
His blood pressure’s really low, around 80 over 50.
That’s very low.
You could just collapse from that.
And...
How’s he doing with eating?
Well, it sort of works.
But...
He just sits there at the table...
It makes me so terribly sad sometimes,
seeing all of this.
Yeah, I believe that. – Yeah.
Mom, do something for yourself.
Now that you're on your own, do something nice for yourself.
Hm?
Yeah.
Not so easy...
How’s the new caregiver? –
Unbelievable. Those filthy pigs pooped in front of my door again.
Anja! Come out here!
Clean up that pile.
Why me? – Because you work here.
Come on, grab the shovel.
Dennis, will you get her if princess can’t move her ass? – Yeah.
Thanks.
What’s this about?
Hm?
It’s not closing time yet!
Did you paint your nails yourself?
Yeah. It’s super quick.
Will you sit with me? – Yes.
My feet look awful.
I ordered shoes too small and keep bumping the front.
I have others, but I like these best.
I’ve got something for you, Greta.
Look. Should I blow it up? – Yes.
One sec.
Turn around.
That’s way too much.
Okay, wait. Give me one arm.
Now the other. Wait. – Greta, are you coming?
Are those new? – Yes.
Ask me first about gifts.
I don’t want her getting something new.
I’ve got a box full of toys. I can give you something from that.
Weird.
On one hand she can do whatever she wants,
on the other hand you control her gifts.
You have no idea.
You think you can buy Greta?
Greta used to bite me when I had to go to work.
She threw things at me.
I had to stay home so she’d calm down.
I couldn’t manage work, even with two shifts.
I brought Greta to the countryside so she’d grow up normal, without consumerism.
Greta! Come out!
No! – Come out!
No. – We’re leaving now.
Come on.
Anja.
I’m sorry.
That was stupid of me.
Would you like to come for dinner tomorrow?
When?
7 p.m.?
Yeah, I’m off then.
Alright, I’ll grab another wine, okay?
Isabell!
Look...
Wait a second.
Isabell... – What are you doing here?
You’re completely drunk! – I just wanted to loosen up a bit.
I wanted to talk to you and say that...
I want us to keep going.
It’s not just my fault.
I’m not saying it is, but...
You can’t stay here now.
Having fun, are you?
You put on makeup. – This isn’t the time.
Tomorrow you’ll feel better. – Tomorrow I’ll feel like crap.
Can I come in?
Ah! – What is it?
What’s wrong?
Wait! I just need to lie down for a moment.
I’m okay.
On the couch.
Lie down!
Can you grab the pillow?
You alright? – Yes.
Thanks. – What is that?
I had a prostate infection. My bladder almost burst.
I had surgery and got a catheter.
The pressure was gone. It’s better now.
That looks inflamed. – Ow!
Wait.
Do you speak English? – Hm?
Yes.
Can you come here?
Do you feel...
attracted to her?
She’s so smart.
That she let me get close...
is a mystery to me.
Do you have kids?
Yes.
How many? – One.
And...
where’s his father?
He’s dead.
Oh... I’m sorry.
Do you have kids?
No. We don’t have children.
In my opinion...
If you really want to care for a child,
you don’t need one of your own.
There are billions of children on this planet.
This expired ten years ago.
Still probably works.
Careful. – Ow!
– Stop! Ow!
You’re hurting me. Stop, that’s enough!
I didn’t know you were so successful with women.
She’s pretty.
I’m going to buy bandages. Need anything? – No.
You seem happy with other people.
Do you really know when I’m happy?
I used to.
Now I’m not so sure.
They’re really comfortable and super absorbent.
They’re great, especially on trains.
The toilets are so filthy there,
you’re glad you can just go in the diaper.
This one absorbs the most.
There’s also a version like pants. Multicare Premium, Maxi Plus.
Depends on her hips.
And don’t open it with scissors, or it’ll leak for sure.
Worked in agriculture before? – At a dairy farm.
Are you available immediately? – Yes.
Are you flexible with hours?
Mhm.
You’ll hear back in a week. Goodbye.
Hey.
Saturdays are really busy for us.
Women like you are gold dust for our team.
It’d be great for us if you came back.
Here. – Thanks.
You’re welcome.
Sorry about last time. But it’s happened too often.
It’s just random guys, and I lose it.
But I’m actually a peaceful person.
Good morning. – Good morning.
Feeling better? – Yeah.
You know, this thing’s pretty handy—
I don’t need to go to the toilet to pee anymore.
How long does it stay on? – No idea.
Two, three weeks, max.
Want some coffee? – No thanks. – Sorry.
Want some bread? – No.
Why are you here? What do you want to talk about?
By the way...
The doctor said...
I can still have children.
Great. – Yeah.
You’re not the only one who’s sad.
What?
You’re not the only one who’s sad. I’m sad too.
Oh really. You drink your beer and walk away.
How do you know what’s going on inside me?
Unbelievable. – No, I don’t. Sorry.
Then stop making assumptions. Just stop!
You were probably relieved it didn’t work out.
That’s not true. – Yes it is. You didn’t want a child.
That’s not true. No, it’s not.
Yes, you said from the start
you couldn’t take care of someone else.
I should’ve listened to you.
Isabell.
Isabell. That’s not true.
When you were pregnant...
I was the happiest person in the world.
The happiest person!
– Calm down! Calm down!
So happy you drove to Hamburg to your construction site.
Calm down!
Calm down!
How many times do I have to say it? I didn’t know.
I thought it was a routine check– up.
I couldn’t have known. Neither of us could’ve known.
We couldn’t have known it was already dead.
Calm down! Calm down!
We have to call the police.
A mate will fix it for a thousand. – Is there a problem?
A thousand? – She caused an accident.
He was driving like a maniac.
No police. Cash.
Yeah? – What?
How much do you want? How much? – A thousand.
Uh...
Wait... uh...
What are you doing? – Getting money from the car. I’ll give it to him.
Why? – It was your fault.
I tried to swerve. – You were speeding.
I was driving normally. – Speeding!
Stop it, he’s drunk. – No.
What? – He’s drunk. Calm down.
I don’t believe this. – 400 euros, okay?
That’s all I’ve got. – Okay.
Alright. Alright!
Man, come on!
Shit!
I don’t get it.
And you even gave him money. – What was I supposed to do?
What if he had a gun and threatened us?
Sure,
he’s threatening us with a gun in this little town.
In Brandenburg. You’re nuts.
It was your fault. I’m done. – I feel humiliated. Because of you.
Humiliated? Because of me?
I’m done.
Hello.
Is your husband feeling better? – Philippe is gone.
Everything’s... shit.
I’m sorry.
No, I’m sorry that... – You don’t need to be. Really.
– Sorry.
I need to take this.
Yes?
What?
I’ll put a cloth on your neck.
Should we call a doctor? –
Here’s some water. – Thanks.
Try to drink.
– Good.
I’m leaving. If she dies, I’m gone. – It was her circulation.
He hit me twice.
How? He can barely move. – He shoved me.
Please stay! I need to find a replacement.
Here.
Thanks for coming with me.
When something’s wrong with my mom, I panic.
If she had to throw someone out the window, it’d be me first
and then herself.
My dad would survive.
I don’t get how he has so much power.
You cook here?
Want to come in for a drink?
I’ll just change quickly. You can sit over there meanwhile.
I’ll be right back.
One white wine for my friend.
The shoes should fit. – Thanks.
Hey. – Hello.
38.
38. And?
43, please.
38 and 43.
You’ll take lane six.
I’d like size 41. – And 43.
41, 43. – Exactly.
Have fun. – Thanks.
Car’s already at the shop. It’ll cost more, but whatever.
Yes? Hello.
Two people. – You’ve got a reservation?
You’re on lane... four.
Delta Bowling, hello?
How many people?
And when?
How long do you want to play?
Okay, got it. You’re booked.
Thanks.
How long have you been here?
Not long. Since I quit working in the kitchen.
Want to work for my parents?
They need help, and I think you’d get along.
You’re very thorough.
Excuse me? – You’re very thorough.
Inge!
Inge!
Inge!
Your wife’s asleep. Can I help you?
What’s that? – That’s a school.
A school? – Yes.
Did you build that? – Yes. I’m an architect.
May I take a look? – Yes.
That’s a school too? – Yes. I built nine schools.
When was that?
1978.
78? – Yes.
Read this. Read it!
Read it!
"On a very cold day, February 22nd, 2003,
I went ice skating on the Wannsee.
The next day, as usual, I went to the office around 8:30 a.m.
I climbed the stairs and felt fine.
I sat down at my desk to get to work.
Then my pencil slipped and fell to the floor.
I tried to pick it up, but my left hand couldn’t grip it."
"A brain hemorrhage was diagnosed."
Yes. – Yes?
That’s how it was.
"My skull was cut open.
The professor said the blood had gushed out."
Yes, that’s how it was.
"In the days that followed, I realized
I had lost many of my abilities.
I could no longer walk alone. Building was over.
No more skiing or sailing either."
You have to turn around. – Hm?
You have to turn around.
You need to turn here.
Turn around? – Yes.
Sorry. You don’t have to do that.
It’s no problem. – Where’s the caregiver?
I don’t know. – Piotr!
Yes. – Can you help my father?
One moment, Papa.
Feet up.
Mr. Rolf? – Yes.
Time to brush teeth.
And otherwise, is it okay here for you? – Mhm.
I used to work in a hospital. It doesn’t bother me.
Besides, he’s not my father.
Are spikes good for grass? – Yes.
Are...
smooth shoes good for...
Are spikes good for indoor courts?
No.
Are turf shoes good for indoor courts?
Turf shoes for indoor courts?
Hey. Hey. Hey!
Move! – Give me the ball!
My dad bought the land cheap back in the day.
I was supposed to build something here, but then he had a stroke.
He always said architecture is the only profession
where you can walk through your own thoughts.
You can walk through what you once imagined.
And who is he writing his life for?
For a grandchild who doesn’t exist.
He even wrote a dedication in it.
My mother’s glad when he writes— then he’s not calling for her all the time.
Good thing that old wreck is finally burning down.
Greta! What is it? What’s wrong?
Oh sweetheart. What happened?
How could she have done that? It could’ve been anyone.
Anja, it’s not just the fire. There were three police reports.
All show that Greta isn’t being supervised appropriately. – That’s nonsense.
Greta!
Greta!
What’s going on?
Greta and some other kids set a house on fire.
Since Anja already lost custody once, it’s complicated now.
They’re both still living with foster parents too.
But Anja grew up here, didn’t she? – No, she’s from Frankfurt Oder.
"Ground stabilization is important everywhere.
But especially here in Berlin.
Berlin was essentially built on marshland.
The Nikolai Quarter and the palace were founded on oak piles.
For my project in the Wet Triangle in Charlottenburg
there was also a very difficult..."
Soil tests showed
that stable ground was only found at 28 meters deep.
A total of 38 concrete piles were driven down to..."
Mr. Rolf?
I’ll take you to bed now.
Hi, Mom.
So... – Write down how much.
Sorry? Oh, how much... – I always forget. How many grams?
Oh, let’s say six...
Mr. Rolf.
What is it? – He locked himself in.
How?
I wanted to brush his teeth. – Papa?
Papa.
Open the door.
Papa?
I can’t turn around.
– I can’t.
Can you get the toolbox, please? – Yes.
I can’t. I’m trying to turn around.
Shit.
Papa.
I thought you were from the village and lived with your parents.
My parents are dead. They crashed into a tree.
Were you following me?
How long are you going to sit here?
It’s pretty far along. – Yeah.
Well.
The windows still haven’t arrived.
We won’t finish before winter.
I still remember my friends...
how beautiful they always thought you were.
You’re still so beautiful.
You can see how far we’ve come with all this.
Good.
I have to go. – My...
My parents act like it never ends.
If it ever comes to that for us, let’s not lie to each other.
You’re the only one I ever wanted a child with.
I didn’t want a child at any cost.
I wanted a child with you.
Now I’m 48.
I’m getting older too. – No.
Not you.
Shall I bring you some coffee?
No, I’m too tired. I’ll go to bed soon.
These are for you. From our garden.
Thank you, that’s lovely.
Anja, I’ve got something for you.
For your help.
Shall I take you to bed? – Yes.
We can lay this over here.
I’m going downstairs for a smoke. – Okay.
Can you help me? – Of course.
Philippe.
Coffee? – No, thanks.
Not now.
My mother’s not doing well. I’ll go get the car.
Okay.
You can use the space in different ways.
The architect just wanted to provide a frame.
You can decide what to do with it.
Mama?
... that’s water.
I thought it was a fish. – No, a bee hovering.
A bee? Then you need to use the pen directly, not your finger.
It only works well with the finger.
Your mother said we can stay here.
Mhm. I like the bird. I’d make a few more.
But there’s no more room here.
No? Sure there is. Look, there’s space right here.
There. – Mhm. He’s diving into the water, right?
Yes. They dive into the water.
