Original subtitles

And as the wolf resounds to a hundred Spanish tongues...

They tell you that God is dead, but man, they still want you to have a purpose.

They say, look at your parents.

Hard-working migrants, work two jobs, struggle all your life, buy your kids a house.

Yeah, that's purpose.

They tell you to be a doctor, a teacher, be creative, do something, believe in

something, believe in family, in the future, save the world, believe in love.

But fuck it.

I'm no scholar.

I'm no worker.

I'm no poet.

Ah.

Ah.

Your mother's going to kill you.

He just got drunk and stayed over.

Hi.

Ari, this is Sean.

He just moved in.

Hi.

You making coffee, sis?

I'm not your sister.

He's not up yet.

Mama, I am home.

Lunch.

With Janet.

No, look, we can't today, Mama.

We've got to go and study.

At the library.

Me postinalia for mother, eh?

Meh.

Yeah.

Okay.

Yes.

Okay, bye.

Mum's going to kill you.

You want to eat?

Let him get his own fruit.

Hey, he's my brother.

Fuck off.

You want some?

No, I've got to go.

Fuck, everyone knows the Madonna record.

Yeah.

Yeah, well, nobody plays them anymore.

Like the Stones.

I still play the Stones.

The Stones?

So do I.

She was the first one to flush off a cunt, though, wasn't she?

Like, she was really proud of it.

What's wrong?

You remind me of someone.

Who?

I don't know.

I don't know.

Someone.

I get me Greeks always bullshit to your parents.

You know, I'm sorry, Mrs Voulis.

I know it's midnight, but Peter's still studying at the library.

You have to lie.

Because if you tell a wog the truth, they use it against you.

Why don't you move out of home?

No money.

Get a job.

Get fucked.

Are you right?

What would I do to her?

Maybe she likes you.

Yeah, most Anglo women cast down the side of us.

They don't like the way we smell.

Yeah, they look at us and all they see is a hairy back.

I know you're paranoid.

Have a nice day.

Hey, did you see that?

Peter's taking me to some Greek club tonight.

I'm a sticky.

Do you ever go?

Yeah, sometimes.

You'll be there tonight?

I'm going out with some friends.

Maybe we'll come later.

Sure.

Thanks for walking me.

That's cool.

Hey, Ari.

I know who you remind me of.

That guy from The Grifters.

You know, what's his name?

John Cusack.

That's it.

I love that fucking film.

Where are you going?

I was with Panagiotis.

Your brother and your sister are the same.

But you?

You're the worst.

Asshole.

What?

What did you say?

Where have you been?

Why didn't you ring?

I was with Panagiotis.

He rang first thing.

That was hours ago, Ari.

My God.

Why are you bothering us now?

Come on, Mom.

We're getting jealous in the neighborhood.

I don't have kids.

I was born an animal.

Asshole.

You're pissing your mother off.

You'll kill her, you idiot.

Come here.

Leave me alone.

What are you grabbing me for?

He never comes home.

You've made us jealous.

Asshole.

Let go of me.

Look at me.

When I work, I feed you.

It's my job.

Let go of me.

Come here.

What are you doing in my room?

Open the door.

Open it.

Leave him alone.

As long as you live in this house, you'll do what I say.

I'm happy.

Do you hear me?

There's no other way out.

Do you hear me?

Don't give him any more money.

There's no more money, Ari.

Don't bang on the door like that.

You'll ruin it.

Leave him.

Leave him.

Why are you supporting him now?

Leave him.

It's your fault.

You ruined my children.

You and your son-in-law.

Ari, please.

You should have phoned.

I'm sorry, Mama.

Ari, I fought with your Bapu, but I always respected him.

I'm sorry.

Hey, Joe, it's me.

Yeah, I got it.

Easy.

Yeah, I'm on my way.

Bye-bye.

Shit.

Can you lend me some money?

You got any left?

Where's this?

Come on, I'm hiding.

You want it or not?

It's all I got till payday.

Tula's being taken out tonight.

My boss has a brother-in-law.

Is he Croat as well?

Yeah.

A dreamboat.

Hairy all over.

Big muscles.

I think he's big all over.

Come on, play.

Out.

Twenty.

Forty more.

Forty more.

Eighty.

Take the other one.

Shall we play?

Hey, Ari.

My boss.

Big.

Hey, Kostas.

Would you

like some coffee?

No, thanks.

Your father's in there, isn't he?

He's in Greece.

He's still trying to convince the comrades that

Mark predicted the shitfights in the Balkans.

Yeah, he's Macedonian.

He's not from Skopje.

He's Macedonian.

Six.

Six.

What about you, Ari?

Still surplus flavour?

What's the matter?

Twenty.

Twenty.

Hey, Chuck.

For what?

Personal delivery.

Ari.

How much?

Great expense to the management.

Sixty bucks.

Rip me off, man.

No way, man.

Hey, you know where we should go tonight?

Yeah, I'm not going back to that poofed-up place.

What's the matter, mate?

You scared some guy's gonna hit on you?

Fuck off.

What about the sticky?

We haven't been there in ages.

Oh, come on.

I thought we were going to chasers.

It's full of dumbfuck logs.

Is that the sticky?

Hey, come on, mate.

That bouzouki player there is great.

I don't know, Ari.

Dina really wants to go to chasers.

Fuck, Joe.

Since when did Dina start making decisions?

Hiya, Sofia.

Flying high, Ari-moo?

Where's Betty?

Ah.

Kids are beautiful.

When they are born, they only give us pain.

Did Joe tell you about the promotion?

He's going to be Employee of the Month.

That's great, Tia.

Slow down.

You'll burn your mouth.

Yeah, remove mine first.

Wait a minute.

Let it dry.

I get priority, sis.

Hey, give me the shit.

I can see a snake being trodden on by someone.

Hey, that's a good sign.

Someone will give you a job.

I see a long way to go.

And in the end, there's money.

What's the job, ma'am?

Garbage collector?

Shut up!

He's someone who wants to take care of you.

Someone who cares about you.

But you ignore him.

The name starts with a sigma.

There's no one, Tia.

Hurry, another one.

We met her last week.

What's her name?

The one with the hair.

Stella, that's it.

Stella?

That's Stella.

Is she Greek?

There's no Stella, Tia.

He's kidding.

That's enough.

Get out, both of you.

Something's troubling you.

I'm moving out.

I'm serious, Tia.

You're too young.

Get a job.

Wait until you have money of your own.

The cops don't lie.

I saw the face.

I'm not!

Find a girl.

Get married.

What do you think?

You look gorgeous.

How many guys do you reckon you've fucked?

I don't know.

Hundreds, I suppose.

Have you ever been in love?

Every time, sugar.

No, I mean really in love.

Love is a beautiful thing, Ari.

You know, sometimes when you're in the middle of a fuck...

and you look into that person's eyes...

I've seen things, you know.

I've felt things.

Nice things.

But then I blow and that's it.

No more nice things.

I just want to get the fuck out of there.

You're such a slut.

You're such a slut.

I'll get rid of the cry.

Let's go dancing.

No.

Guns are sticky.

Who with?

Joe and his girlfriend.

Why do you still hang around with that malaka?

Yanni!

What?

Ari.

Hello, uncle.

Hey, Ari.

Come on.

Come on, you want some whiskey?

Shit, Johnny.

Hello.

You got a job yet?

No, you?

No.

No job.

Fucked up country, Ari.

Fucked up country.

He's good.

I will.

Thanks, Theo.

Don't look like a whore in front of your friend, you whore.

Go fuck yourself, you drunk as fuck animal.

Tula's back, Papa.

Just get used to it.

Don't put your mother's name on your body.

Mari.

Whore.

What do you say, Ari?

Will you break them for her?

Will you pay to see her on the track?

You fuck a few girls for me tonight, eh?

We'll go out tomorrow night.

Okay?

Yeah, you look sexy.

Where are you going?

I'm seeing Charlie.

Can you drop me off?

Does Mum know?

I told her I was going out with you.

We're gonna fuck tonight.

You don't like him, do you?

I don't trust him.

Why?

I'm not hungry!

I'm not gonna tell you what to do.

Good.

Does this mean I get my vibrator back?

I can remember when this song came out.

You always say that.

As if we care, you didn't even write the bloody song.

I'm up.

Want a whiskey?

No, I'm good.

Why are you crying?

Come on, Dimitri.

If you want to dance...

you have to play.

Come on, Skatoulaki.

Wow.

Come on, Arimou.

Come on, Arimou.

Come on.

Come on, Arimou.

Bye, my son.

You don't dance badly, do you?

Not like me, of course.

I learned the right way.

I'm tired of this.

He stays with Vasily, eh?

He sends his regards to you.

What do you mean?

He'd really like to see you, Dad.

It's not his fault.

Johnny's got a right to live his life.

Because he's my friend.

Arimou...

are you still going dancing with John Dina tonight?

Probably.

No way.

No way!

I've got the right to do what I want!

Bullshit!

Bullshit!

Where are you going tonight?

I told you.

You're too young to be going out.

I don't want to lecture.

Alex!

This house feels like a prison.

I've worked hard all my life for you kids and you have all let me down.

Mum, live your own life.

For Christ's sake, stop living it through us.

What, Ari?

What?

Thank you very much.

Gracias.

Arimou...

Yes, Mum, Mum?

It's your job to look after your sister.

Please...

for me...

look after her tonight.

Go on, tell him.

Joe and I are getting engaged.

When did this happen?

A couple of days ago.

Cool!

I'm not going to rush into getting married or anything, but, you know...

That's great, man.

Congratulations, eh?

Thanks.

Be friendly, Ari.

You think I'm a dumb fuckwog, don't you?

You never said that.

Yeah, but that's what you think.

Yeah, OK, so you're a wog.

Oh my God, hell, you're embarrassing me.

Goodbye, sister.

You really know what you want, Dina?

What's there to know, Ari?

Don't you want to have new experiences?

Well... when Joe and I get married, I'd like to get a grace.

Where are you going now?

I can't go on my... Why wait?

I can't go on my own.

Come on.

Don't you want to be free?

You know, Ari...

I just want to muck around.

Have fun, enjoy my friends.

That's all.

Yeah, sometimes I feel like screaming.

Like singing.

Do you ever feel like that?

I can't sing.

Well, no.

Ask Joe.

I cannot.

Why do you want to marry Joe?

I love him.

I guess.

You guys must be right off your face.

What the fuck are you doing?

Smoke outside.

This place stinks.

Maybe you want some smoke.

Have you seen that film, The Grifters?

Yeah, Angelica Houston was so cool.

You reckon I look like John Cusack?

No.

Would you rather I was John Cusack?

Dike.

Lizzo.

Chill out, will ya?

Chill out.

Put them down.

Put them down.

Put them down.

Chill out.

Put them down.

Chill out.

Put them down.

Put them down.

Put them down.

Put them down.

Put them down.

I'm glad you don't act like a faggot, eh?

I'm a man.

Course you do, you Greek.

We all take it up the ass.

Fuck!

Fuck!

Fuck!

Fucking life!

I hate this fucking life!

I hate this fucking life!

I fucking hate it.

Mum!

What did you tell Dacia?

What?

Nothing.

Why did you tell her you're leaving home?

I didn't.

Don't lie to me.

It's no big deal, Mama.

Yeah, well, that's his problem.

But I won't be able to see you.

What if I went to Greece?

Mum, there's no work here.

Maybe I could get work in Greece.

Hardy Moore, please don't say that.

I couldn't stop worrying if you were in Greece forever.

It wouldn't be forever, just for a year or so.

Excuse me, dear.

Congratulations.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

All the best.

Hello, Edzo.

Hello, Uncle.

Hello, Tina.

When are you getting married, Uncle?

Actually, Uncle, we're getting engaged.

Happy wedding, huh?

Thanks.

Here, from me.

Enjoy yourselves.

Thank you.

Come on, Sofia.

Come on, man.

Sound like your friends.

Fuck, this place is full of Arabs.

Hmm, this is enough.

Face it, motherfuckers.

What the fuck are you doing?

Not in Europe anymore.

This isn't Asia, motherfuckers.

This isn't Africa.

Pray, pray to God.

Pray to Allah.

Pray to Buddha.

Pray to fucking whatever.

It doesn't matter.

Pray

to fucking worms.

All right, you come to the steaky later.

We'll be there.

Don't be there until late.

All right?

You and Charlie.

Charlie?

Ari?

Hey, everybody.

This is Ari.

Alex's big brother.

Hi, Alex.

I'll see you here, okay?

Thank you.

I'm going to get a drink.

Don't tell Tina about the speed.

She thinks I cut everything, but don't.

Yeah, sure.

Do you want to go do something now?

Maybe later.

Want a little whiskey?

It's

got nothing much to do with class.

Hey, little brother.

How are you?

Where's Janet?

Look, I don't care.

Mandela's still here.

With friends.

She hates all the crowds.

When it comes to power, colour does not matter.

I intimidate her.

Hey, everyone.

This is Ari, my little brother.

Hi.

Oh, agree with me for once, you pig.

Sit.

You made it.

Ari, this is Ariadne.

Pleased to meet you, Ari.

Anyway, there shouldn't be any barriers.

The idea of a nation-state is a thing of the past.

But immigration should be cut back.

It's an ecological argument.

We're the driest continent on this earth.

That bullshit feeds into racism, George.

George, you're sounding like an anally retentive skid, mate.

It's too late.

They've already let us in.

The barbarians are inside the gates.

But they weren't like us.

The Vietnamese have no manners.

They are given houses and jobs.

But we had to fight for all this.

That's what's wrong with this country.

Everyone hates everyone.

The skips hate the wogs.

The wogs hate the Asians.

And everyone hates the blacks.

Yeah, exactly.

You don't even know any Kuris.

What's that got to do with it?

I fight racism wherever I see it.

Whether it's the Greeks, the Italians... Fuck the wogs.

...the Vietnamese... Fuck the gooks.

...or the Kuris.

And fuck the bongs.

What's your problem?

What are you, Ari?

Some kind of wanker.

Hey, maybe I'm a barbarian.

Bravo.

A Greek barbarian.

Oh.

So fuck everyone else.

And you're proud to be Greek.

Proud to be Greek?

I had nothing to do with it.

What have you been?

Women to be celebrating?

Jo won't dance with me.

Jo doesn't do Greek dancing.

You should learn.

Don't drink so much.

Fuck, Ari.

Sit down, you're pissed.

I told you not to have another one.

Fuck.

Come on.

Give me a kiss.

What the fuck are you doing?

You alright?

Come on.

What are you doing here?

Don't go with me.

Stop asking me questions.

Look, don't touch me.

Got some quick?

I don't know.

I love you, Betty.

Betty!

Fuck off, you moron!

Betty!

Fuck off!

Fuck off and leave us alone.

What are you doing?

Get out!

Get out, you prick!

Fuck you, Jo!

What the fuck are you giving her drugs for?

She skips us out.

Jesus, Jo, fucking relax.

You know, you're turning into a real dickhead.

You better fucking apologise.

Grow up, Ari.

Get a job.

Ah, yes, sir.

No, sir.

Can I have a raise, sir?

Can I have a day off, sir?

My wife's having a baby, sir.

They've offered you a house, haven't they?

Eh?

You're a big, fat, juicy deposit, haven't they, Jo?

Marriage all arranged, is it?

You think they're going to let you walk down the aisle of a

Greek church with your little crew cut in a fucking Greek church?

No fucking way, mate.

I want to marry Dina.

Yeah?

Since when?

Embarrassed to be seen with you.

What did you say to me?

What did you say?

Fuck.

Fuck politics.

Let's dance.

Ooh.

You dance well.

Sugar.

You're so beautiful when you dance.

What the fuck are you doing here?

He's kissing Nils.

Play.

Play something.

I want to dance.

I'm sorry.

There's nothing for you to be sorry about.

Yes, there is.

Where's Ariadne?

Inside.

She's very beautiful.

So are you.

They love me.

They wanted more.

You're crazy, Johnny.

Johnny's not here.

It's the girls' night out.

It's too much.

It's too much!

Never, ever say anything is too much.

It's Tula, honey.

Hi.

Pleased to meet you, Tula.

I'm Sean.

It was my mother's name.

And you've met Persephone.

Johnny.

You know the story of Persephone, don't you?

She spends half her time in hell and the other half in the real world.

Trouble is, she doesn't know what's real anymore.

She doesn't know where she belongs.

What do you expect me to do, huh?

Dress like a putana?

Apologise to Tula.

Never get involved with a Greek.

We're all mad.

Totally fucked up.

Crazy, hey, Ari?

Let's go to the puftas.

Let's go dancing.

You wanna come?

Sure, where?

Three Faces, honey.

Come on, hop in.

I'll meet you there, okay?

You can get out the corner, you're not coming with me.

Don't be mad, Arimu.

Mama's arranged everything.

Where are we going?

Three Faces commercial road, thanks.

Who is it?

Oh, hi.

Sorry to wake you.

My name is Ari, I'm Alex's brother.

What are you doing here?

Is Charlie home?

My sister?

Charlie's not home?

It's very late.

Why you come here?

Do you know where he is or where they went?

They don't tell me nothing.

They could be anywhere.

Why you don't look after your sister?

Alex is a good girl.

You're not happy she go with Lebanese?

I'm sorry.

You wait here.

Let go, get your hands off him!

Get out of the car!

Get out of the car!

You're worse than dad, just stop it!

Ari!

I'm okay.

You're fucking crazy man, what the fuck's wrong with you?

Leave him, Ari!

Leave him!

I'm okay, okay?

Everything's cool.

You sure you're alright?

Come on, Ari Moore.

Lover boy's waiting.

Please, Ari.

Just go.

Can you hurry up, please?

She got it.

He'll be there.

You're Greek?

Sure are.

Just two Greek girls looking for a good night out.

What are you?

Turkish.

Your great-grandfather raped my great-grandmother.

You like Greek music?

I love this song.

It's so fucking cute.

I didn't even know what this song's about.

You know this song?

The road has its own story.

There's one word painted on the wall.

Freedom.

They say the story was written by the youth.

It's very romantic.

It's important to remember, those students struggled.

They gave up their lives.

Polytechnic is history.

It happened a long time ago.

It was not so long ago.

It's a pity they all forgot what the struggle was for.

Freedom.

Some people talk about it.

Some people live it.

You Turks are just like the Greeks.

One life and it's all politics.

What is this?

Fucking shit!

What do I take him?

A cocktail, sugar.

Something to make you fly.

Don't say anything, John.

You realize you just went through a red light driver?

Really?

Can I see your driver's license, please?

Yes, sir.

Excuse me.

Sir?

Fuck, this room is white.

What about the chairs?

Have you ever seen chairs this color?

Carpet used to be this color.

They had no right to look in a girl's handbag.

It's private.

You're Greek, aren't you?

You realize the possession of drugs is a serious offense.

Take it to a tooler.

Hey, Chris, isn't that your wife's name?

We've got the right to talk to a lawyer.

Shut your mouth.

The house is mine.

He doesn't know anything about it.

You hear that?

Your girlfriend wants to take the rap.

I'm not his girlfriend.

We're family, sugar.

Don't sugar me, cunt.

Give a fuck what you are.

Stand up.

Stand up.

You working tonight, tooler?

I'm not a prostitute.

Where'd you get the money for the hash?

I won it in a card game.

You can't keep us here.

How'd you like me to stick a knife in your hand, cunt?

Until the coroner, you pulled it on me.

Move to the center of the room.

Do it now.

Remove your clothes.

Now!

Your underwear.

I said, your underwear.

Stop it.

It's not right.

You better help her along.

Seems she knows you.

Come on, cunt.

Come on.

That's right, you stick.

Relax.

You're gonna enjoy this.

Remove the rest of your underwear.

Just do it!

Get up!

Piece of shit!

Putana!

Putana!

You're fucking old!

Look at ya!

You're disgraced!

Don't you push me!

Piece of shit!

You scum!

Don't you push me!

Putana!

Old!

You're fucking old!

For once in your fucking life, you should have just kept your mouth shut.

Haven't we always said what we hate about the wogs is that they're gutless?

Neil.

What are you doing?

Get down.

Every time you keep your mouth shut, every

time you keep quiet, that's where you'll stay.

My truth is my own.

You have to stand up against all the shit and all the hypocrisy.

It's the only way to make a difference.

Get away from me.

Come on, I'm with you.

To all I can look after herself.

I wanna come.

What could I do?

Drive.

What could I do?

Drive.

I think I'm falling in love with you, Ari.

Fuck.

You wanna get tough?

You wanna get tough?

Look at me!

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm a whore.

A dog.

And a cunt.

My father's insults make me strong.

I accept them all.

I'm sliding toward the sewer.

I'm not struggling.

I can smell the shit.

But I'm still breathing.

I'm gonna live my life.

I'm not gonna make a difference.

I'm not gonna change a thing.

No one's gonna remember me when I'm dead.

I'm a sailor.

And a whore.

And I will be until the end of the world.

Just what is it that you want to do?
