[shouting]

[Zazie] Just do it!

-[Zazie] Come on. -The damn thing is indestructible!

-Hagen! -[Hagen] Yeah.

Guys, why don't we just burn this fucking place down?

Don't say that shit, Zazie!

[boy] Let's do it.

[Rahim] Watch out!

What is that?

[Hagen] That's disgusting.

-[Rahim] Is that blood? -[Zazie] Come on!

Guys, come on. Let's go with them.

[Rahim] Paula!

[boy] This is... Fuck!

[cow moos]

[Lea] Hey! What are you doing here?

You're all alone.

Shh, it's okay.

[cow moos]

[Lea] Shh, it's okay.

Don't be scared.

[cow breathing heavily]

[Lea] Shh.

It's okay.

[Paula] Shit! It's the cops!

[Rahim] Lea, the cops! Come on!

-Out this way! -[Hagen] Get out!

[siren wailing]

[Hagen] Zazie!

-[police officer shouts] -[Zazie yelling]

[Zazie grunting]

[Hagen] Zazie, stop. We have to go!

-[police officer shouts] -[boy] Let's go! Run!

[police officer 2] Hey! Stop!

[unintelligible screams]

[police officer 2] Hold it, you! Stop!

Hey, stop! Police!

Hey, hey, come here. Stop. Get down from there.

-[siren wailing] -[Rahim] Shit.

[panting]

[Rahim] Wait, Paula!

-Paula, wait. -Rahim! Rahim!

-We have to help my friends. -It's too late, Rahim.

[sirens continue wailing]

[breathes heavily]

Are you coming?

Yeah? Yeah.

[shouting]

[boy 2] I don't have it...

Hop on your feet, now. Let's go. Move it.

Against the bars. Nice and calm, okay?

[cow moos]

[police officer 3] A calf got loose! Watch out.

[police officer 2] Look straight ahead.

[commotion]

[police officer 2] Alright, let's go.

[police officer 3] Grab it!

-No! Don't! -[police officer 2] Hey, hey! Stop.

-[gunshot] -[Lea shouts] No!

-[Lea] No! -[police officer 2] Keep moving! Go!

Calm down. Get in the car. Move!

[dramatic music playing]

POLICE

[Lea whispers] Guys, we were doing the right thing.

-And I swear-- -Haven't you given enough lectures today?

[police officer] She's sitting there.

[police officer] Herst, Lea.

[knocking on door]

[man clears throat]

[man sighs]

Sit down, please.

[man moans appreciatively]

Hungry?

Oh, right. Sorry.

I murdered a baby cow tonight.

What?

Is that what you'll tell your wife when she asks how your day was?

No, my wife doesn't ask.

Besides, that calf was a threat.

It would have been slaughtered anyway. That's what the animal was born for.

Do you know, what I don't understand

is how you can have more compassion for animals than people?

Did you even think about the people who work at the slaughterhouse?

As if there aren't better jobs for them!

Well, sure, for someone born into wealth, parents are rich,

no real problems, of course!

For other people...

they have to find a way to get by somehow, right?

Well, you know...

the so-called...

"normal" people.

Yeah, they're all busy with their own survival.

They aren't interested in your vision of a meat-free and muesli-eating world.

Who says the slaughterhouse was my idea?

Everyone I talked to before you.

Yeah, that's an advantage with you spoiled kids...

Too much to lose, I guess.

And, plus, we got a phone call.

And it came in before you guys all went in there,

from someone who knew your plans.

You might have a rat with you.

[Kim] I'm not going with you.

-[man] No, no. That's not what we agreed. -[Kim] Leave me alone.

-[Kim] I wanna go to Mom's! -[man] Stay out of trouble, goddammit!

-[Kim] I'm not going with you. -[man] Listen to me. That's enough.

You're coming home with me!

-[Kim] I wanna go to Mom's! -[man] No!

This isn't the first time I've picked you up at the police station.

Now, come on.

-[man grunts] Get in the car, now! -Fuck you!

[Lea's mother] This isn't like you at all.

Breaking into places and vandalizing?

That is not my daughter.

Don't be so dramatic, Mom.

-Don't provoke your mom right now, Lea. -You got arrested!

[Lea's father] She's absolutely right! Why would you do this?

-Who knows what could have happened? -I thought you might be dead.

[Lea's father] You've got no reason at all to rebel against us.

-That's not it at all. -[Lea's father] So what is it, then?

We're always on your side.

-Yeah, almost. -Yeah, except this time.

-[Lea's mother] Who put you up to this? -Nobody forced me to do it, Mom!

Everyone else followed me.

They're torturing those cows and I wanted to stand up.

Yeah, well, it worked out really well. Congratulations.

And for your reward, you get trespassing and property damage charges. Awesome!

[Lea's mother] We're not done yet, Lea.

There will be consequences.

[sighs]

...A WAVE

-Moo! -[boys laughing]

[Hagen] Hey. Hey, Lea.

Are you okay?

It really sucks that they caught you.

I'm sure there will be a lot of community service.

How did it go with your parents?

Where are the others?

What do you think, huh? They bailed because they didn't have the balls.

Maybe if you'd been listening to Tristan, then none of this would have happened.

Oh, yeah?

Is that so, Zazie?

[bell rings]

[Rahim] Come on.

Is it true? You got arrested?

I got a call from your mom.

She asked me what's going on with you,

asked me why you've changed so much recently.

And what did you say?

[Sophie] Nothing.

To begin with, I don't know the answer myself,

and besides, I believe I'm still your friend.

Thanks.

Is your little revolutionary phase finally complete?

Do you think you're done with this Wave nonsense?

-[teacher] Good morning. -[all] Good morning, Mrs. Wittich.

Right. I'm sure you can all guess why I'm here this morning.

Vandalism and violence will not be tolerated at this school.

The students responsible for the damage to the slaughterhouse

will make things right by cleaning up the mess they made.

One more thing, everybody who had a hand in this matter

is on probation.

Further incidents will lead to immediate expulsion.

-That's it. -Thank you.

[Mrs. Wittich] It's always good to stand up and fight for your beliefs.

But violence and aggression,

as history has shown us, are never the right methods.

Can you please turn off your phones? I don't want any games.

I'm not in the mood.

Tanja, are you ready to give your presentation?

[Lea] I should have prepared the slaughterhouse operation better.

It's my fault that everything was so... uncoordinated,

and I especially want to apologize to those of you in real trouble now.

But the operation still could have been successful.

Had we gotten out in time and posted our videos online,

we really might have achieved something...

if we weren't betrayed last night.

-[Rahim] What? -[all] What?

[Lea] One of our own.

-Huh? -Wait. How?

[Lea] That's right.

Last night, one of us called the police before we got there.

[murmuring]

-[Hagen] Who would do that? -[Zazie] How do you know?

That cop who questioned us - Serner - told me, Zazie.

[scoffs]

That means nothing.

-The police love those mind fucks. -[girl] That's true.

[Zazie] They want us to turn on each other.

[girl] Yeah, exactly.

[Rahim] Did the cop say who the traitor was?

No.

Which one of you is the rat, huh?

-[Lea] We have to work to find out-- -[Tristan] It was me.

-[Hagen gasps] What? -[girl] Are you crazy?

[Rahim] Tristan! What the hell? I don't... Why would you do it?

He didn't like the idea of others being able to join us to begin with.

No. Listen to me. You won't change a thing with a mob.

-[Paula] What bullshit is that? -[Tristan] Look around!

-They're all hammered, or just gone.

-Dude, what are you talking about? -I'm not drunk at all!

At least now, you know who is really loyal to the Wave.

Oh, yeah. That's right, I know.

Fucking thank you, Tristan.

Let's have a vote.

-What do you mean? -[Rahim] Wait. What for?

Who's for kicking the traitor out of the Wave?

-[Paula] Good idea. -[boy] Yeah, man.

You must be crazy. You can't kick Tristan out.

How come, Zazie?

I thought this was a democracy.

Or is he above us all?

-[Zazie gasps] -[Hagen] Fuck.

Alright, so who's in favor?

You can't do this.

Against it?

Dammit! You're destroying everything!

You bitch.

-Fuck. -[Zazie] Tristan!

Tristan!

Okay, let's think about where we go from here.

-Shit! -[Zazie] Hey, Tristan!

Tristan!

Hey, forget the princess, huh?

I had that exact idea, too.

To call the police so maybe they would realize the Wave isn't a kids' game.

But I didn't do it because of... Lea.

I thought you liked her more.

That stuck-up bitch, dude. She's such a--

Just stop. Just be quiet, Zazie.

EXQUISITE APARTMENTS IN A PRIME LOCATION

[Tristan breathes deeply]

[child's laughter and voice]

[gunshots]

[panicked screaming]

[Tristan breathes heavily]

-Mom. -[Tristan's mother] Let me go.

[Tristan breathes heavily]

-[Tristan] Mom! -Let me go.

[Tristan] Mom!

[Tristan breathes heavily]

[knocking and door opens]

[guard] Broch!

Today is your big day.

Pack all your crap up.

[pants]

[phone alarm beeping]

[Benny] How did you screw up?

It was me, huh?

It's the guy's fault if a woman's unhappy, dude.

She doesn't trust me.

Shit.

[Tristan] Yep.

Got any tips?

Cut out your heart, and serve it to her on a silver plate.

Do something big,

like a big fat gesture of love.

-You've watched too many romantic movies. -And you, too few.

You ready?

For 18 months, man.

[buzzer sounds]

[boy] Don't come back!

[boy 2] Yeah, man! Show them all!

[howls like a wolf]

[howling]

Have a sweet life!

[boy 2] Enjoy it, man!

[cow moos]

[boy] Shit, man. If the cops hadn't come...

This stuff stinks!

[worker] Hey! You're here to clean, not chit-chat.

Nikki?

-It's me. -[Nikki] Tristan?

Shit! What's going on, dude?

I tried to visit you, but they said you'd been transferred.

[Nikki laughs] Were you on a hunger strike or did you start a prison riot?

Neither.

Yeah, right!

[laughs]

So... I need a favor.

-Uh-huh? -Do you still know the carpenter?

Give me a second.

[woman] Bring the fucking dog downstairs.

It would be for two bookshelves.

[woman] It stinks up the whole place.

[Nikki] He'll have to come to your place to take measurements.

Okay.

A deposit, too, you know.

-It will be expensive. -I've got money.

Hmm... okay.

Thanks for the favor, Nikki.

-[girl] It's already really late. -[boy] I should...

[boy 2] Hey, what are we waiting for?

Aren't we expecting a few more of us?

I doubt it.

Paula, do you know where Rahim is?

Uh-uh. And his phone's not on.

Why didn't he come?

Hey, I don't know. I'm not his mother.

Lea...

the Wave was never my thing.

I was here for Rahim.

I'm sorry.

[murmuring]

[Hagen] Zazie!

-[Zazie] Hey. -Hey.

Why aren't you with Lea and her new friends?

Actually, I have no idea whose side I'm on,

but I know one thing:

I want Tristan's apology.

And you?

Why are you here?

Well, what Rahim just said.

And what did he say?

Lay off, Zazie. You know he's here for you.

[Zazie laughs] Oh, really?

I think we should discuss exactly what goals this group has right now.

Don't start going on about that stupid slaughterhouse again.

Yeah, but--

There aren't enough of us for a revolution, but enough for an orgy.

-I'm for free love. Fuck for Forest! -[boy] I'm in, dude!

[boys laughing]

[girl] Why aren't we fighting against our real oppressors?

Asshole teachers!

-Yeah, that's a good idea. -Yeah.

Hey! I think I know where the principal's car is parked.

-[girl] That's good. -Come on, guys.

That's just childish.

-Who says you're the boss? Come on, Lea. -Yeah.

So, who's in?

-Yeah. -Yeah.

[Rahim] Nice place he's got.

-Here it is. -[doorbell rings]

Hey.

My parole officer knows the building owner.

Every ex-con who moves in has to renovate the apartment himself.

Want a beer?

Okay, look...

I messed up.

I thought it was the right thing for the Wave.

But you guys make the Wave.

I need you.

You're the only friends I've got.

And, so...

I'm sorry.

And what about Lea?

[Rahim] Yeah, what about her?

Please talk to her.

[Tristan] Yeah.

Yeah, definitely.

And what about you?

I can't stay mad at you, man.

That night at the slaughterhouse was the best night of my life.

How come?

Paula's folks were out of town.

[laughs]

[Tristan] Yeah? Alright!

-[Tristan laughs] -Oh...

-Oh. -[Rahim] Yeah.

[Rahim laughs]

Zazie.

Still angry?

I was never angry.

[Tristan] Thank you.

Hagen.

-Apology accepted? -I can't take it anymore!

-Hagen! -Hagen!

What is this bullshit I'm looking at?

The door frames have no masking tape!

The light switch has been covered. The old wallpaper hasn't been scraped off.

And whoever painted this wall

should go right back to prison, for your information!

-[door opens] -[Lea gasps]

-[boy] Miss TieBreak? -[sighs with relief]

[Lea] Henry Skylar?

You really scared me there.

I think it's creepy down here, too.

So, you must not go to Scholl High School, right?

No, Schopenhauer Secondary.

Where are the others?

Out there.

I'll show you the way.

-Okay. -[Henry] Come on.

It's cool you want to join us.

With just guys, it's kind of lame.

I'm not really sure yet.

I want to check out your group first.

Sure.

So, why are you called "B.N."?

Brigade North.

Sounds a bit like the military, doesn't it?

[Henry] It's supposed to.

Soon, we'll get real weapons,

and shoot all the Jews right in the head, with all the dirty Arabs!

-What do we have here? -[Marvin] Hello there, Lea.

-[neo-Nazi] Get her. -[Marvin] Bring her here!

-Grab her. Up here! -[Lea screams]

[Marvin] Bring her here.

Hello there. Hello there. Come here!

So, boys, how about it?

What should we do with her?

[neo-Nazi] Shave her head!

-Shave her? -[Lasse] Yes, let's shave her head.

Turn around.

Very good. That's it!

[Lasse] I have a better idea.

Hey!

Let's make a good, loyal German girl out of her!

-[neo-Nazi] Yeah. -[neo-Nazi] Yeah, come on!

[Lasse] Get your phones out. Do we have a spray can?

Write exactly what I tell you on the wall in big letters.

[laughter]

-[neo-Nazi 2] Yeah, make her do it. -[neo-Nazi] Come on, do it.

[Lasse] Let's go!

I...

Lea Herst,

vow to join the Brigade North national resistance!

[cheering]

Heil Hitler!

[all] Yeah! Heil Hitler!

Do it! Go on. Write it.

What's more important to you, huh?

Your political beliefs or your nice, pretty face, huh?

[neo-Nazi] Yeah!

[Lea grunting]

[neo-Nazi] Push! Push!

[jeering]

Come on. I'll make this real simple.

Just spray a swastika. You can do that, right?

[laughter]

[Marvin] She can do that.

[neo-Nazi 2] Come on. Do it.

[jeering]

[shouting]

-[neo-Nazi] Crazy bitch! -[Lasse] Shit. Get away!

[Marvin] Get her! Get her!

[Lea] Shit!

-Fuck! -[Marvin] Get her!

-[neo-Nazi] Come on... -[Marvin] Fuck!

You're such a bunch of fucking morons, man!

[Lasse] Fuck this shit!

We'll get you!

[phone alarm continues beeping]

I'd like to play a round of doubles against the Schröders this weekend.

They're always talking to everyone about how good they are.

I know tennis isn't really on your mind right now, but...

-We'll crush them. I promise. -[Lea's father chuckles]

Seriously?

[Lea's father chuckles]

Cool.

[doorbell rings]

-Who's that? -I don't know.

-[Lea's father] Morning. -Morning.

Serner from Meppersfeld Police. Can I come in?

[Lea's father] Yeah.

Mrs. Herst. Hello, Lea.

Sorry to bother you so early.

Wow.

Nice place you've got.

What have you done now, Lea?

I haven't done anything.

Oh, please, please, don't get angry.

I have a son about the same age, so I know what you're going through.

That's why I thought we could have an unofficial chat, face to face.

Tell me what this is about.

See, there was a fire, I'm afraid, at the slaughterhouse, yesterday.

And we're assuming it was arson.

My God.

And you think that I did it?

It certainly wasn't the cattle.

I must ask, do you have any evidence for this?

[Serner] Well, it was your daughter--

Last night, our daughter was here at home with us.

[Lea's mother] That's right.

Is that so? And you can both attest to that?

-Of course. -[Lea's father] We're having breakfast.

If this is turning into an interrogation, I might call my lawyer.

He'll bring a croissant for you.

-[Serner] That won't be necessary. -Good.

We've cleared this up, I think. Enjoy your meal together.

-I can let myself out. -[Lea's father] Yeah.

Oops.

[suspenseful music playing]

[sighs]

[phone vibrates]

You were right.

The Wave really is more important than any of us.

We have to be together in this...

and be able to trust each other.

[Tristan breathes heavily]

If you put together a Molotov cocktail,

it gets you a minimum of six months in jail...

but then, use it, and the sentence goes to three years.

Lea...

this is for you.

Tristan, are you insane?

-What do you want? -Did you see the video?

You're such an idiot.

-What happened here? -[Lea] Nothing.

I just want...

What? For me to forgive you?

To be with you.

I want you to know that I'm sorry, okay? I'm not good at this stuff.

And my friend said to cut my heart out and show you how much you mean to me.

That's what I did.

You threw a Molotov cocktail and filmed it.

Right, and now I'm in your hands.

Come on, Tristan! You haven't understood a thing! Nothing!

Not so loud! Shh!

My folks aren't here. I can yell at you as loud as I want.

Oh, okay.

I really wanted to stop what the slaughterhouse was doing,

but without violence.

And I hoped you would have been with me.

That's what I want to happen.

I want--

Just shut the hell up, you idiot.

["Let in the Light" by Moderat plays]

Now tell me: when?

[laughs]

When we were both on top of the school.

We'd just met that day.

Oh, well, then how long did it take you?

Oh, I still think I'm not there.

Give me one or two extra months.

[both laugh]

[Lea] What does this mean?

[Tristan] Ikigai.

And what is that, exactly?

It means...

having a thing to live by and die by.

It's always about life and death with you, isn't it?

It reminds me of my mom.

She couldn't stand the diplomatic receptions

and the gated communities we ended up in, anymore, you know?

She couldn't stand that 100 yards from the golf course,

kids were starving.

So, she started doing something about it.

She worked in refugee camps and for non-profits.

When I was a kid, I never understood why she wasn't there.

But every time she returned home,

she just had this light in her eyes.

She finally understood why she was here.

What happened?

She was shot...

...five years ago in Sudan.

[Tristan exhales shakily]

She died doing what she believed in.

[Tristan sighs heavily]

Connect the dots...

Can I?

A fox.

Kitsune.

A creature from Japanese folklore.

So smart and so fast

that he can't be caught.

How about a vixen that's at his side?

Miss Kitsune?

[car approaches]

I guess you'd better get dressed.

Are you scared of my parents?

[Tristan laughs]

[Tristan] No.

I was just raised well.

Go down the balcony. Go! Hurry!

[Lea's parents chattering outside]

-Hey. -Hello!

How was the film?

-[Lea's mother] It was fun, right? -Yeah, good.

-[Lea's mother] How was your evening? -[Lea] Boring. Just doing homework...

Aw... I'll get some wine.

-Good night! -Good night.

[phone vibrates]

Hey, do you miss me already?

-Aren't your feet freezing? -[Tristan] Why?

You left me a little souvenir.

[laughs]

-Romantic, huh? -[Lea laughs]

Yeah.

Very.

Where are you?

I'm stargazing.

[Lea] Oh, man.

Don't laugh.

I've been locked up for the last 18 months.

-Just don't catch a cold. -[Tristan laughs]

Lea...

Yeah?

Sleep well.

You too.

[woman] Hey, come on.

Off we go.

Now, we're going to shoot ourselves some deer.

Hey, come on.

Here we go.

[man] Show me the money.

Where's Nikki?

[man] The money!

[suspenseful music playing]

Put it on the ground.

Take off your clothes.

-Hey, come on, man. -[man] Take them off!

Keep going.

[Tristan] Fuck you, man!

-[man] Everything! -[gun cocks]

Hey, what is this shit?

[man] I won't tell you again.

Nikki?

[woman laughs]

Sorry, Tristan.

The carpenter's making everyone paranoid.

Just making sure you're the same old you.

[Tristan] I'm not.

True. I remember you bigger.

-[Tristan laughs] -Here. This phone is untraceable.

I missed you!

[suspenseful music playing]

I guess you guys heard about the slaughterhouse?

Tristan...

-No-- -Don't.

I did it.

If you ever doubt me again...

then go to the cops with this.

No more solo stunts in the future, I swear.

...Molotov cocktail,

it gets you a minimum of six months in jail.

And what about the fake Wave assholes at our school?

Are those idiots with us?

There's one Wave...

with only five members.

Or does anyone disagree?

[Tristan laughs]

Good.

Did you bring your masks?

-Oh, shit! -Fuck. I must have forgotten.

-[Hagen] I knew it. -[Tristan] Dammit.

In the future, we need to be more prepared, okay?

Sorry.

-Speaking from experience, right, huh? -Kiss my ass.

Dream on, princess.

I'm not really that fond of you either, Zazie.

but you're here and I'm glad of that.

Same here.

[Tristan] Okay.

Now, where did we leave off?

["We Are the Kings" by The Painted Pianos playing]

[Tristan] Hey.

That... is you.

Just us five.

We are the Wave.

To us!

[all whoop]
