You die.

Me too.

Why do I die first?

Why not?

Statistics, you are a man.

But you smoke. - Sometimes.

You babies. - Foolishness.

You are dogmatic.

You are dogmatic. I am totalitarian.

TRUE.

I thought that eventually you would sleep with me again.

Why don't you sleep with me again?

I told him that his desire for harmony was

pathological, that he left nothing but problems

unresolved and that finally he will have to

stop always turning a deaf ear and wish, smile,

express himself, that he must overcome his laziness...

I'm sorry...

Hey, where are you?

I have my period. - And?

That? I'm not going into the water.

Did something happen?

I guess that means art can't take place

where a vice-chancellor is giving a speech.

Yes, it is possible, right?

But it is not the choice of images, if you are standing in front of them.

No, but there is no art without context.

What are you doing? - Working.

In what?

The static for these cubes, It has to be ready tomorrow.

...Yes I know.

And please stop telling me, After 20 years,

my mother wants to kill you, don't fuck with me

But that's how it is. And before it kills me...

I can't concentrate. - Me neither.

I'm not really seeing, I don't know why.

Maybe because of the movie.

I'm very hot.

God, I'm hot.

It's rather cold here.

I am entering the climacteric spontaneously.

Maybe one day you'll just be too old for the movies.

Why is that? - I swear, we're the only

ones who can't keep up with this shit.

Hey, grandma, grandpa, don't you want to keep fighting in the house?

Do you see it? - I don't see anything!

Wednesday, 3:10 p.m. m..

Simultaneous thoughts,

they arrive without warning.

Half of his attention is focused on what is happening in front of his eyes, or what is said.

The other half thinks something completely different.

In food or animals or holidays or the Asian pattern, whatever. Wednesday, 3:11

p.m. m. You listen to a stem cell researcher named Adam Born and think about.

.. ..

.which is not yet universally defined. Jeff Koons?

Totally ridiculous, Is this a sexual fantasy?

Sexual thoughts in old age rather compensate for

something like: social anxiety during subway rides,

lack of challenge at bad cultural events, or simply

boredom of monotonous lectures, this is something

different, this lecture is not boring, I'm

listening, but at the same time I'm thinking about Jeff Koons.

Shitty cognitive. You think about one thing or the other.

Someone driving a vehicle while making a phone call, or not listening

or, eventually, it will crash into a tree.

Why is someone talking?

...well this is all too technical for me...

So ping-pong: Adam Born vs. Jeff Koons, 1:1.

...they not only remain in the blood, But the unique stem

cells of the transplanted organs spread within the body,

go to other organs and in part differentiate even further.

...a pregnant woman is also a chimera, because we

know that the intact cells of the baby in the womb

They can break the others by very finely filtering the placental barrier.

So it is possible during the months of pregnancy

to demonstrate intact fetal cells within the mother.

How are you, Hanna?

How are you, Volker? - And how is he?

Very good.

I saw your presentation yesterday.

Yes, thanks.

I wanted to tell you something some time ago, well...

I think your permanent selection of Dewey is somewhat inappropriate.

That? I'm not messing with him.

Yes you do!

You're saying that, he says, that aesthetic experience can be experienced,

aesthetic experience itself has, so to speak, an immanent self-reflexivity.

This is not only refuted, It's also completely counterintuitive.

I just have to look at my own ex...

...but it is one of our usual problems, as the Ethics Board, that we

often have to deal with scientific developments in their early stages.

Well, I just want to remind you, that we do not know, what awaits us,

When chimera research in England made the leap,

as indicated in synthetic biology, you can

produce living organisms from inanimate matter,

which appears to be quite adaptable.

What happens next, if these on the other hand are

combined with other, foreign organisms within an organism?

I would say that, that is a very interesting question.

However, the institute has long been working closely with

companies such as Pharmaseidon and Bioxern, which

undoubtedly have a completely different interest in this matter.

Excuse me, What exactly are we talking about?

From chimera research or markets?

Maybe you could summarize your point, Miss Dr. Blum.

Well, this here is nothing new for us: the difficulty of a categorization of "Life".

And the fact that there is an

ever-growing arsenal of spare parts

available for our bodies doesn't make things easy at all.

By all means.

Yeah, what if this wasn't investigated in the first place?

beyond the potentialities, What does the market offer here?

Yes.

Yes. - Of course, however, I am here to familiarize

you with the chimera investigation, which the British

are pursuing very aggressively and which has been

left on hold here, also for the influence of this advice.

But I don't think they invited me here to discuss this.

Simon?

Who really put Gilbert and George on the wall here?

You! About a hundred years ago. - That? Foolishness.

These are your heroes.

I fell asleep, I have to see the doctor. - Oh, yes...

Don't forget, Wilson is on tonight at 8!

See you later!

Oh my god... We have to renew.

Does it hurt you?

Let's not fool ourselves, It looks like a tumor.

We will analyze the blood values ​​again to determine tumor markers.

It takes a day or two, then we can be sure. Give us a call, okay?

Stay calm. There are worse things today.

Simon?

Do you want to know the figures?

Better not. - We have to talk about it.

If something important doesn't come our way soon, We are broke.

All our artists are broke, where is the money that is supposed to come from?

Yes, exactly.

Here comes the next bankruptcy vulture.

You have to start saying no. We're not going to make it.

Look at it. How am I supposed to say no?

We have like ten guys, which you're ruining. Things are going downhill.

We have to get new clients.

Ingenious people. Who sometimes wins a contest.

Oh, now let's go.

Do you have an extra ticket?

Yes, no, I don't know, I... Do you have a cell phone?

Hey, it's me. Hanna, where are you?

I'm not going to do it.

Why don't you answer the phone now?

What's happening? - I should be at the theater right now.

You're not going to do it. - I'm not going to comment on it.

I'm going to have to leave at ten thirty, My mother is coming.

Excuse me.

Can I make a quick phone call? - No, this is only internal.

Here. Hello.

If I can?

Are you a stalker?

Do you have an extra ticket?

Hello, it's me, Where the hell are you?

I see, I...

Thank you. - You are welcome.

Do you often go to the theater?

- In fact, never, but a friend has a part in the work.

...in death I scream!

Thank you.

What role is she playing?

The young poet.

Ahh, it's good.

You seemed somewhat strained yesterday, didn't you?

I beg your pardon?

In the ethics council.

What does it mean?

I don't know, somehow I had the feeling that

you were arguing, no, because it was

against my position, but because it was against me.

Why is my verse the sterile of the new pride,

until the moment of variation or rapid change?

Why don't I look aside over time. To the

newly discovered method and strange compounds?

What is your substance, from which

you have been made, that millions

of strange shadows over you will lie?

Because each one has, each one, a shadow?

I believe that the texts are by themselves, Now that

they are grown they do not need any improvement. But...

That's Wilson, maybe you should have gone see Mother Courage, though,

there's a lot of music in it too, It might actually be a stupid idea.

I think I'm going to have to go this route. - Okay, so...

So, bye. - Bye and thanks again!

It doesn't matter! Bye bye!

Hanna, good, let's go!

...somehow never again, and I had lost direction...

Hello Hilde!

Tell me, did you go to see the Ring of the Nibelungs?

That?

It's both.

Please excuse me, I...

I forgot.

That?

What about you? I was very worried.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry,... - Enough.

I have something to tell you.

Sit down.

I went to see the doctor. Yesterday.

I have pancreatic cancer. I've been imagining this for quite some time.

The cancer has advanced to the point that surgery is no longer possible.

And you tell me now? We've been sitting here for three hours.

Well, do you think I'm going to repeat all of this from the beginning?

I wanted to wait until Hanna was here.

Wait a minute, what?

How long have you had cancer?

They don't know.

Pancreatic cancer is often diagnosed a little late.

Who is that doctor?

Hanna meets a specialist in London.

Ah Simon, it's Walter Lohkehl, He is the

expert on this type of cancer in all of Europe.

We have known him for 30 years.

And dad?

That? - Do you know?

Ah, nonsense.

Oh, Simon.

Is my father at home?

She is 65, like me.

At some point it has to start.

You can't see those losers.

My mother had 3 months to adapt to death, but it was too long for her.

Two weeks ago he left her.

He donated his body for plasticization purposes, the

most important things were established, or those that

she considered important, and after that she took 39 Valium.

My mother was a numerologist.

It was 03-09., three minutes after nine.

Unfortunately Clara came to visit her and found her... too soon.

By the time the ambulance arrived, his heart had stopped for 6.5 minutes.

My mother was 65 years old and 6.

5 minutes were enough to deactivate her brain forever.

But it wasn't enough for the rest.

Clinically she is dead, but his body,

flanked by machines, continued in operation.

39 Valium on 03-09. three minutes after nine.

Although the daughter, who moved to Stuttgart

in 1993 and turned 39 a week earlier, thwarts

the plan, because she arrives on a night

train at 09:30, with a nightly fare of 39 euros.

Even though my mother is alive we had to sign approx.

500,000 times, until we were able to take her home from the hospital.

My father didn't come, Clara had to go back to Stuttgart.

Some friends came, but at some

point no one came except the nurse.

Death, once you can't even speak,

you barely exist to the rest of the world.

But the body continues breathing, digests the food supplied.

Nothing else. Apparently that's enough.

Hey. - Wouldn't you like to go?

Better not. - Alright.

Sunday 08:30.

On Sunday mornings my mother always

got up early and went for a walk alone.

I have always thought that this is a bit hypocritical.

As always quoting Erich Fromm and quoting "Steps"

by Hermann Hesse, like the favorite poem, this

pamphlet Cheer up for realization without regrets,

on which curiously all Germans agree, that is

because, as my mother quickly said to shore up her

good taste, it is the lyrical legacy of post-war Germans.

The heart must be, in each new call out,

willing to participate and begin without

tragedy, without pain, with courage to seek

a romantic connection, a disparate connection.

Yeah, my dad used to say that after they were gone.

To hardly find in one of the extensions of life

that we do it at home, and apathy begins.

But only he, who travels and has opportunities,

can break the postures of "paralyzing" habits.

Easy he said.

It may even be that the last of the

hours makes us once again, a

youthful lover: The call of life for

us always flowers Anonymous, my

heart: Say goodbye and recover" ...and recover!

I welcome you to our series Culture, ecology and daily life.

Right behind me you can see the performance of the

artist Lepe Rubingh will be busy drilling for oil for a while.

That is, in the Wall Park in the Berlin district of Prenzlauer Berg.

He wants to highlight that the decrease

in resources can be replaced by oil,

which lies undiscovered beneath our cities.

That is, privileged below centuries of old

cultural monuments, such as the Cologne Cathedral...

Good things come in threes.

What is that? - Art.

Hannah! Are you coming?

Are you working in television? - I'll go see this young man.

Lepe, this is incredible, what exactly have we seen?

We just hit oil. Here is this site just

below the center of Berlin, we knew it all along!

Does anyone have a fire?

Do you want a beer? - Yes, I would love to!

Here you are. - Thank you.

Do you play here regularly? - Every Sunday, Union Berlin at 2:00 p.m.

m.

Are they colleagues?

Most of them have known each other since school. From Berlin?

- No, from Görlitz.

Oh, they're all from the east. And you? - Ostmark, Graz.

Okay, from the East to Austria.

What the hell was that? - What do you mean? It was great!

And who won? -2:2.

I'm going to take a shower. Do you want to come to the stadium with us?

To the stadium? - Union?

Union. - Union!

It says here, we called you four times. - Yes, maybe.

I already thought that I had to pick it up at home personally.

Well, our suspicions were confirmed.

It's true that I only have a

slight increase indicator, but you'll have to have chemo anyway. Well, two.

What about sex? Why am I asking this?

Oh, nothing, fine, no problem.

Although immediately after the OP you will want to take a break.

Hmm... which OP?

Didn't you hear me?

Can you briefly explain to me one more time?

You have testicular cancer Mr. Sievers.

We have to remove one of his testicles. Operate it. Immediately.

Ah, I see. Alright.

Today testicular cancer can be controlled.

We just have to act immediately. Can you stay here now?

This afternoon we are free.

Hanna Blum, please leave your message after the tone.

I don't know what you're doing now, but I'm going into the operating room.

Good?

Hanna Blum, please leave your message after the tone.

That's all, goodbye. I'm in the San Juan, station 12B.

Hanna, damn, where are you?

Cutting-edge medicine.

They cut off your balls, and they don't even give you general anesthesia.

So you can witness the live performance firsthand.

Was modernism really a good idea?

I let reality wash away power over me.

But maybe being in a bad mood is his

way of reconnecting with the world again?

Just think of something perfectly positive.

Hannah.

Cotton. - Ah, shit.

Sorry?

Mmh? - Did you say something?

We deceive ourselves.

Oah, I would never do that.

No? - No.

That's nonsense, we're not using contraceptives anyway.

Why not?

I don't know.

We stopped, once we were sure that nothing could happen.

Why is that?

I don't know. Probably one of us is sterile.

Have you verified that?

No. - I should.

Speculation is just discomfort.

Do we know each other?

You had an affair with me, in '92.

Ruth Fischer?

I had an abortion back then.

Of me?

For the creation of stem cells

Crossbreeding of different cell types is not even necessary anymore.

Haven't you discussed that?

- Yes, we have done it, and I understand it, in principle, but I really don't understand it.

Well, then come visit me at school.

I will do that.

I'm hungry.

We are all hungry. - Where are you going?

Schuuuusterjunge!

Our team, our pride! Union Berlin!

Bye! - Well, goodbye.

Now they are gone.

We had to come.

Graz, isn't everyone Catholic there? -AND?

You too? - Of course!

I don't know about you East Germans.

Me neither, an enigmatic tribe.

My grandmother always said that they

were the most dedicated Nazis of all.

Well, everyone is good at something.

Yes, but what is happening with her? - With Petra?

We have been together, for some time now.

I already knew it. She is still your fan. How long ago was that?

2 years. - 2 years, you see.

He looked at me all night. Full alarm.

She's your type, right? - At that time I thought I was hot.

So, No. 60.

For God's sake, who lives here?

I. - Oh really?

Yes.

9.40 euros.

There it is.

It's a bit like the employment center.

I like it like this...

It has a certain charm, - Nice laminate...

Beer or wine?

I, um...

...water.

Unfortunately I don't have a television, so I don't know what your program is.

It doesn't matter.

I need a bathroom.

Over there.

Just like that?

Yes.

Hannah?

Hannah?

Hanna, is everything okay?

Damn doors!

Aren't these the emergency exits? They're supposed to open!

Yes, from the inside. The fire escape is around the corner.

Come on.

You don't have to stay.

Sleep.

Why didn't you ever tell me?

You were with Hanna. I didn't have the chance anyway.

But I would like to have a child now.

Our son would be 17 today.

Did you have children later?

No. Good night.

Simon?

Hey, my baby.

Hello darling.

Hello, bald!

Do you want some? - No.

Great, your diet. I will join you.

What is your opinion on the "Schleier question"?

Schleyer? Hanns-Martin?

"Schleier" The "Question of the Veil": Should Muslim women in

Germany remove their veils at work? in schools, for example...

What, are they still discussing that? - Yes.

I don't know. If you ask me, all Islam can be eliminated.

Now, let's go!

the anti-metastatic discourse: the veil

is ideological, misogynistic, everything.

Most women don't see it that way.

AND? That doesn't solve the problem.

I don't know.

A political sign is established only when the person who makes it wants it to be understood that way, right?

- What nonsense is that?

That? - Now don't be so lazy!

Yes... hello?

When you run around wearing a t-shirt with a swastika

printed on it, is that just politics if you say so?

What a stupid comparison. - She's not stupid.

Why, for example, are you still embarrassed to drive a Mercedes?

Now, stop!

Stop what? - That's yesterday's news.

Since you got sick, You don't have any persistence.

Yes, why would it be?

I don't like it when you're sick. - I know.

I think it's great. - I'm bored.

Come here.

Poor baby, how are you?

I feel ill.

Say, you really want to do this, Funeral service on Saturday?

We can't cancel it anymore.

Of course!

My mother has been lying in the Gunther von Hagens morgue for a week.

I think we should have the funeral before the

deceased gets up, naked, plasticized, and with

drawers coming out of her belly, in some conference centers.

Incredible, your mother.

Did you ask the doctor?

That?

The fertility thing.

Because? Do you suddenly want to have children now?

I don't know, maybe.

Oh Lord, the poor.

Where are mom and dad?

On the balcony, yelling at each other, as usual.

And then after 6 weeks of daily care, after 6 years of psychiatry.

We are probably the first divorce case in the

history of the world in which no one wants custody.

You are unpleasant.

You think children are unpleasant.

Why do you say this now?

Those are your words.

You are unpleasant. Stop saying that.

As every faded flower and every youth gives way to old

age, all the phases of the flowers of life, all the

flowers of wisdom and all the virtues in their time...

One day he will have his hand on

my fading soul, when the time comes.

...who was a free soul, a free spirit and a free human being.

Whatever it is.

Difficult to tame a bird. Tie it with tight ropes.

If she doesn't want to, she won't come.

Goodbye, Thomas. - See you.

I think you can stand on one leg, can't you?

Simon, please don't be angry, huh?

But you know, your father doesn't like to leave the house.

Thanks for coming anyway.

Bye.

I think I have a big appetite.

Oh really?

So that?

I don't know. - You get everything you want.

This is great.

What day is today?

Saturday, why?

The 16th?

Mmh. Because?

So it's our 20th anniversary.

Oh really?

Oh God.

That? The first kiss or the first sexual relationship?

The first kiss.

Muskauer Strasse, October 16, 1990.

Shouldn't we finally get married?

Well.

Slowly.

Yes...

Yes, relax.

And...

Aspirate and inject.

Well, you have a safe hand.

Is there anyone still making a sculpture of our logo?

No, not yet.

Why are we building a pedestal, If there is nothing to put in it?

The concept has been neglected, but the pedestal has been paid.

Now I have to take care of him. - Then, enjoy...

And while the ship was going at full speed, two people helped him at the front.

When the ship headed towards Moby Dick's

left side he didn't even seem to notice.

Ahab stood in the middle of the damp

mist, which moved around his powerful back.

Great, cold air, right?

You are in Prinzenbad sometimes, during the summer, right?

Correct.

A race?

Well.

Well. But unfair.

Because?

I just had surgery.

Bad?

Testicular cancer.

Oh. AND?

One less.

It makes you faster. Lower air resistance.

Dear visitors, The bathing shed closes in 15 minutes.

We thank you for your visit and wish you a good night.

Show me.

The scar.

That?

Not bad for just one testicle.

Well...

See you soon.

Where were you all this time?

Having a drink.

With who?

Only.

Only?

Come closer.

Good morning.

Early riser, even on weekends?

Don't you come to bed anymore?

Do you want some tea?

I don't have any.

Yes, I can go search.

Ought...?

At some point, yes.

Yes.

I'm going to take a shower, okay? - Yes.

clear, time to change sides.

Buddy.

Hello.

Hello Adam.

What are you doing out here in this weather?

Cleaning the cellar, and... - Are you coming?

the children's dinner. - The potatoes are not ready yet.

Someone help me set the table.

I'm going in

Can you try it? I'm going crazy.

I was up.

If you can't do it, who can?

What's up, are you going out today?

Dad, you don't understand.

Yes, but mom says, that you are there all day.

Since yesterday at 3. - Color is our food,...

I have to distribute color four times. - ...our strength.

Color? - ...our hope.

Yes, look. - Is...

the essence and meaning of our suffering.

This is the realm between life and death. Therefore souls need color,

otherwise they will die. I can get the color for them, but...

Come on, Nick, we only see each other every 2 weeks.

Dad, I think it's great that you're here now, but

do you know what would be great?

If you could take charge for a moment. I have to go to the bathroom.

And if the guards come, just throw the color.

...that they are condemning them both to death.

If you want to die so much, go to your saw.

Fight the disgusting, demon, foreign enemy. Help me!

Nick?

Where is the color?

Nick, where's the color?

I'll be back to the office soon.

Alright.

Hey, hello. - Hello.

Hello. I haven't seen you in a long time.

Adam is not here?

No, we have called him several times, but nothing.

Damn, I missed it.

Oh I'm sorry.

Bye! - Bye bye! Ciao!

Hello? -Adam? It's Hanna, Hanna Blum.

Oh, hello.

Hello. I have this recipe here.

This too?

And this.

I'm going to go grab something, do you want to come?

Yes, I'll be there soon. - See you.

Good afternoon. - Hello.

What material is this? - Steel and stone.

He's going to be a huge son'e bitch.

Take a look... Ahm, sorry.

Here I am.

Aahh. Hello, Dr. Born.

Hello, Dr. Blum.

I don't think I'll see you again.

Do you mean today?

No, I mean always.

Ah, I would say that life is incalculable.

There is no doubt about that. How can I help you today?

It's 11:30 a.m. m.

He would like to show me his kingdom.

Oh, of course. Are you doing artificial insemination?

- That's what I started with. I was the expert on that,

I'm still teaching. We make money with In-Vitro,

in order to continue the investigation. In the first plant are the stem cells,

on the second floor the Yamanaka investigation. Yamanaka. - Yeah.

I'll explain it to you. So, here it is clear, human skin cells. You know that.

Yes. - And here,...

The viruses they carry into cells are a kind of

messengers, messengers of genetically enhanced foods.

They adhere to cells and thus transport their cargo inside.

And through this DNA, they enter through the back door

Skin cells transform back into pluripotent stem cells.

Pluripotent, that is, do they reproduce?

- No, that means that they are the base cells, which can transform into any type of cell in the body.

They are not yet specialized. You could say,

we are reprogramming skin cells back to the

stage that makes embryonic stem cells so valuable.

They can transform into each type of cell, for example, those

that are defects in a sick body, or those who have growth problems.

Not bad, really.

And without having to breed our DNA in some cow eggs.

So much for the British and their meaningless chimeras.

I'm sorry.

What is he doing? Are you kicking us out?

Coffee? - Oh, yes, yes.

A son? Anything else?

I have a boat at sea.

I get seasick in boats.

My son too. He has to go anyway.

Do you have to go back to the lab?

You don't have anything?

What do you mean?

You don't have things, books.

Aren't you reading?

Oh, hello. - Hey.

What is that smell?

You smell very good.

You are in a good mood today, my dear.

Bye. - Bye.

Another beer?

What else do you do, besides swimming?

I won't say it.

Because?

I don't know. I feel like I talk too much.

You tell me what you do first. - I'm building art.

And what does that mean?

My company designs and builds objects for artists, especially sculptors.

They have an idea or a plan, and we build it.

And what kind of art is it?

Especially large-format installations or sculptures.

Oh really? - Yes.

Do you have a card?

Yes, I think I should have one.

Thank you.

That means you have my number now.

Can I have yours too?

Of course.

I don't know how this usually works.

That?

The anonymity thing.

Ahm... with gays.

You know, I'm not gay.

I mean, I wasn't gay, until now.

And now you think you are?

I have no idea. No.

Yes. I don't know.

Don't worry too much.

It's not that simple.

It is. You just have to say goodbye. - To what?

To your deterministic ideas of biology.

Hey. - Hello.

You look great.

You too.

Wait.

Doesn't it hurt?

You smell different.

As?

I don't know. Good.

The marriage is closed when the bride and groom, before the

judge, in person and personally, They declare to marry each other.

...and when he says "Hamlet", then I can't tell him, I

can't tell, that he is a heterosexual man with his

particular problem, I have nothing to do with

him, Then he asked me to say: Yes, he represents me. - Exactly.

But then, when Medea is there, then one would

say, Yes, there is a woman, a foreigner,

suppressed, with this certain "sanitary pad issue.

" It should be a house of differences, where we can live together.

However, the picture in the first section comes right after

our birth, where they say, this is a girl and this is a boy.

We say that this is a biological order, but maybe it's just symbolic

Yes. - Yes.

Rostock. What are you doing there again?

Seeing bad art. Take it easy baby. I'll be back tomorrow.

Understand deterministic biology, passed. S.

Hey! - Hey!

Not bad. It's almost finished!

Don't we want to go to your house?

I don't live alone.

What does that mean exactly?

That means there is another man.

Instead of the 4 genomes that were needed to introduce

the retrovirus into the cell, only two are needed now.

You can kiss the bride.

...the idea of ​​starting something with a man.

The disgust for this normality of everyone, which is

subordination to themselves, came along with the

discovery of a perversion, of their fetishistic dream.

Perverse. Yes.

At least, she was something special

among all the normal really wicked weirdos.

Everything else was a waste of time...

What are you doing?

Don't know.

Do you want to go home?

No. That's impossible.

Because? - I don't live alone.

Oh no.

Oh, how cute. How gorgeous!

One two three.

A little confusing, don't you think?

I like a couple of things. - Hello.

Everything is so chaotic, I really don't know.

Who was that again? - Some editor. I forgot his name.

I feel kind of sick. - Oh really? Should we go?

Yes, no, erm... Let's continue.

I have to go to the bathroom. - Me too.

Mister!

Hey. - Are you OK?

Shouldn't we better go? - Alright. Here.

Hey Hanna!

Hello! What are you doing? - I haven't seen you in forever.

I did this installation here. Do you like it?

Did you do this? - A computer controls the light animation.

The color changes every 12 seconds, This

represents the change between East and West.

As usual, there wasn't much money. But we actually made an effort.

Something is wrong with the regulator. The circuit is reversed.

She's my studio guest tonight. She could show up in town at any time.

Yes, I'm waiting.

Oh shit, I'm on my period. Will you have a tampon available?

No, I don't have any either.

Damn, I always have it somewhere.

What's happening?

I haven't had my period for a while.

Maybe you are pregnant.

When a line appears in the square window as

well as in the first circle, then you are pregnant.

For... Stop. For.

For. For. For. For...

That means submission as well as subjectivation.

Yes, yes, that is an old question.

Why is it so difficult to free yourself from these old submissions?

Why are they exactly the same terms as

insult, pain, regulate and control

ourselves, without which we cannot

live, What do we need, to be able to take a position in society?

Why are we fixating on ideas that degrade and devalue us?

The usual answer is because we cannot be otherwise.

That allow us to stay alive.

And this is the paradox.

we are floating

between the established categories because we take possession of them

and allow ourselves to have public influence through them.

We can even accept being perceived,

classified and recognized in categories,

that throw us into ambivalence, and we do it anyway,

Because we can only exist that way, which means: to be accepted that way.

I would say that the price we pay for this is a certain alienation effect,

to act within the limits of acceptance.

To persist in one's own being means for Spinoza

not be the same, but means an expansion, transformation,

of everything given.

The need to persist cannot be reduced to aspects of conservation,

otherwise you would have what Freud describes as a self-preserving drive.

In fact, our insistence on clinging to life

can lead us to accept conditions of existence

that deny and devalue our lives.

It is possible to be deceived

about which path leads to a more or less better life.

The complicated thing about this is that you

cannot be outside the categories of acceptance...

Hello? - Hello, it's me, open up, please.

Hanna, what's going on? - We have to talk, please open.

That's impossible now.

Don't you understand? I have to talk to you.

Come on, open up!

Hanna, I'm not alone.

I don't give a damn! Now open the door, damn it!

Now it's getting complicated.

What is happening?

Is she still here?

That? - The other one, is she still here?

You told me you weren't alone.

Hanna, what's going on? What happened?

I am pregnant.

It's about Simon.

That?

What, do you know each other?

What are you doing?

What are you doing here?

Oh damn!

Can you please explain this somehow?

What did he tell you?

Hanna, honey...

Do you want tea?

Yes please.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Are you going to the doctor today?

Good.

Simon called again yesterday.

There it is.

Do you see the heartbeat?

Are what you see heart contractions?

One moment.

Hidden behind is another.

Other?

Well, hello!

Twins.

Oh God!

Do you know how old they are?

Approximately 18 weeks.

Is it possible to determine the exact date?

If you know when you had sex.

So what, if one... I mean... If one has more than one partner?

Much time together?

Yes, sometimes.

Then we must do a paternity test.

One of the men has undergone chemotherapy.

So we need to do other tests first.

But you have nothing to worry about.

Now explain to me in more details, please.

I think for the first time in a long

time, I don't know what I really want.

I think for the first time in a long time you know exactly what you want.

Yeah?

You are in love.

Yes. - See.

I never thought you'd experience that. - Yes. And it's over.

And why?

There is another type. - Do you have another type?

Complicated.

No, they both do.

Hello, Hanna. - Hello.

Hello, Hello everyone...

...new boxes, handwritten pants...

Code TDY75071.

We have sent an email.

Hanna, there's a letter for you.

You must... - Hello.

We will contact you again. My assistant is calling you.

Bloodbath in Baghdad. 50 dead after suicide attack.

Peace negotiations in Darfur failed. Thousands in the race.

Hundreds arrested during protests in Saint Petersburg.

Search Rescue cards for survivors.

Is she present anyway? - Definitely.

You can't know that.

If one of them is my mother, then it's her.

Come on, let's go somewhere else.

It's June 22, if my calculations are correct.

Do you know who it belongs to?

There are two.

I missed you.

I missed you too.

I miss Adam too.

Me too.
