As guardian, l'm like an answering machine. l filter calls and people.

l filter people.

l rent to people l like. The rest, l kickthem out. Get lost.

That's all.

They always pay before they go up. l'm telling you,

we don't givethe keys first. That's the name ofthe game.

They go up.

lfthey're noisy, l knock at the door and tell them to keep it down,

and they have the room until midday. From middayto midday, 24 hours.

Atfirst, when l got here, l was scared.

l wasn't used to it. The walls, it's pretty dark in here,

and when you're not used to it, it's kind ofshocking.

lt's like...

you enter another world.

lt's the TwilightZone, like Spielberg, you know, a bit...

like everything's largerthan life.

lt's not...

not a healthy place.

Like, someone sensitive couldn't stay here.

23 We look at each other no need to talk.

We look at each other and we understand, thatthings are bad...

sowe haveto leave,

but we're always leaving, so we don't know where we're going.

We're angry...

We want to...

to rise up against society,

against those who made us...

like tools...

Nowthe tools don'twork, theythrow us out.

Here, we're together,

we help each other and we understand each other...

we understand each other.

We have the same language, and the samewayof speaking,

and we don't always need to talk, to understand.

l'm like everyone here, l'mjustwaiting to end it all.

Good afternoon, ladies and gents, excuse me for bothering you.

l know people are always asking you for help,

but l'm having a really hard time at the moment.

l have no money and nowhere to sleep.

Since l'm not athief, l haveto ask you to give me a hand.

lf you... ifyou had a restaurant voucher or a few coins,

orsomething to help me out, l'd be reallygrateful.

Have a great afternoon.

Please be generous.

But l do itwith a different voice. It'sjust...

lt'sjust... there's no...

no context, there's not the...

and l do it with...

a different voice...

a different...

something different in the voice that...

What l really hope is that l'll live well until l'm 40, 45

and then die, pull out calmly...

leave calmly.

Honestly, that's what l'd prefer, what l reallywant deep down.

l've often asked myself why l'd kill myself,

but look, l'm a prostitute. l don't know how long l've been doing it.

lt must be 17 years, 16 or 17 years that l've been a prostitute.

l don't have anysavings,

and l'm not going to start now.

l don't wantto, and l don't earn enough anmay.

So l hope to livewell until l'm 40, 45, with God's help,

and then pull out, do myself in,

leave.

Just kill myself.

lt's not the dopethat'sthe...

the problem, like, it's...

it's the dopethat... that sorts out the problem...

it makes life easier. It's...

like, when you walk the streets, it's no piece of cake...

you can't do it withoutthe dope. You don't want to...

l don't know. It's...

Lots of people think us transsexuals or hookers,

if we walk the streets, it's for the cock,

but it's forthe wallet.

We don't give a shit about cocks.

We don't give afuck.

You said it, we don't give a fuck.

Dicks are not ourthing.

The guywho brought me back this morning said,

''Do you ever do itforfun?''

l said ''Sure, if you pay, no problem.''

That's vitriol. It'll burn holes in mystomach if l drink it.

The shopkeeper sold it to me. l don't know.

Last time, l gave you a good bottle. It wasn't shit like this.

lt's not myfault, l'm sorry.

You get ripped off, it's your problem.

Tothe right... too far, go back.

Slowly,

Go back, left!

Stop, don't move, stay there! That's fine.

Whydid you move it? l said it was fine!

Fuckhead!

Tothe left, left, go back...

Shit, l've dropped my keys.

l bend down to pick them up,

l put them in my pocket,

and l go to my door...

So, Marcel, you're as poetic as ever?

Are you kidding me?

Come in my room.

You're not afraid of little old me?

l don't see what you mean...

Are you thick or stupid?

Come on...

Let's go, baby...

Come on, baby...

Come on!

What is thisjoint?

- You're handsome in that cap. -Are you making fun of me?

- l wouldn't dream of it! - This is a whore's room!

Faggots live in here. What are you doing?

- Don't you like me? -Why are you doing this?

Why?

Don't you like it when l turn you on?

- Pierre! - Sorry?

l'd like to see Pierre.

Just a minute, l'll call him... Pierre!

What is it?

Pierre, please, it's...

Yes?

Lydie! What the hell are you doing here?

Over there...

She can't stay here, l don't want any trouble...

l'll even forgetwhat she owes me...

She's in the bathroom.

Shit...

Don't you think... we should say something?

Yeah, what?

''l tell you, m my disciples are siIent,

''the stones will shout aloud.''
