Johann!

- Miss! - Joseph! - I'm here.

Oh, here you are.

- What about the newspaper for my father? - Sorry,

but there's a bit of mess, if you wait...

Holy Saint Francesco Giuseppe...

Ah, here they are.

- Thank you very much. - You're welcome.

Mum!

- A serenade from the Alps. - It will bring us good luck.

Madam, we can go.

Give it to me, miss. My carriage is waiting for you.

- Go ahead, I will walk. - But it's far, madam.

- You will get tired. - That's what I want: stun me, get drunk with fresh air.

So, finally, I will sleep, as I have never done all winter.

Come on, Joseph, let's go, she'll come later.

Hello. - So, what can you tell me?

Mm! Not bad.

Well, I followed your instructions.

Let's just hope that it doesn't burst into

our hands, but the creams are formidable

- Happy? See you later. - See you later.

It will work.

Where is Johann? He had to help me.

I wonder if he's changed since last year.

He's a young man now. When you'll see him...

- He's taller than me. - Really ?

Lotte! You have arrived, finally!

When I heard you were coming this year, I felt reborn.

I'm glad to see you again. Are you all there?

Oh, we have increased in number.

- Grandmothers, cousins, uncles...? - No, you'll never guess.

Do not spoil the surprise. I'm going to cool off and see you at dinner. I'm sorry

I do not recognize it anymore.

- Everything has changed. - Oh, this is nothing.

Do you remember that old room?

Come and see.

Look!

A bathtub ! It's my mother's picture. But it's still here!

I did not let them touch it.

- I did not know it was your mother's...

- Good job, my mother will be happy.

Come. Come and see it more closely. Isn't it beautiful?

It took over eight months to get it.

Touch it. It was worth it.

And this one? It's a miracle

you open and the hot water comes out.

Try it now, take a bath.

No, I'm waiting for my mother. She will be tired.

- You will have a bath. - I'm glad you're here. Really glad.

- The animals are hungry, I have to leave. - See you later.

- Lotte, I'm here. - Yes, mom !

I have to give you bad news, we have a tub here too. And also hot water.

Yes I see it. I did not expect it.

I saw Hella, do you remember her? All her pimples have disappeared!

- Have you had a nice walk? - Yes, but I swore not to talk about it.

Did you swear? What do you mean "you swore"? To whom?

I'm so sorry, dear, but a secret is a secret.

- You met a vampire. - How did you understand that?

- Did he kiss you? - Mmmm. I swear.

You're such a liar.

Ah, you do not believe it, eh? See what they gave me for you.

- Oh God, what huge raspberries. Vampire blood! - Fresh from today!

Oh, what did they do here? Everything has changed.

Poor mother, what a disappointment they gave you.

Your masterpiece in a bathroom.

- What's wrong with it? As in Pompeii. - But do you still like it? - Mmmm.

I must like everything on vacation. I have decided.

- Even this? - Mm! Why not ?

After all... No, no, stay still! They are

dirty, you must first wash them.

- Who cares! - No, easy.

I've tried so hard to pick them up and now you...

- Come on, give me at least one! - You'll have a stomach ache! - Come on, come on!

Mom, please, come on!

- Oh, here, look what you did. - So you can take a raspberry bath now.

Anyway now they're clean, right?

Yeah. Do you want to know what I'll do instead?

- Catch! - No!

- No, do not run away! - Come get me, come on!

I have a great desire to eat you raw, to suck all your blood!

- See you're not able? - Come on, come on.

No !

Go easy on it... Put it back.

You want war? Okay... war be it!

Oh, hell, I was wrong!

I feel all floured!

- Now you're mine! I'll eat you! - Leave me, no! Mom, no, leave me!

Where's your mother ? - She'll have dinner in the room.

Professor... - Good evening.

- But it's a monkey. He also has a coat. - He looks like a person.

- Well, congratulations. - What happens ?

- Marlene arrived with a cake. - A cake?

- Can I go see it? - No.

We would like to offer everyone a drink.

Today my son Franz is celebrating his birthday.

- "Prosit"! - "Prosit"! - Cheers!

Now... Attention!

- Ah! - Wonderful! - What happened?

Smoke is coming out. I hope it will not stink.

- Can I go see? - No. I told you no.

Uh, Johann is here, all dressed up again!

Johann!

On behalf of... of... of...

On behalf of the citizens of this town...

... you are welcome at Immensee.

- Thank you- - Here's the dinner for mom. - Thank you.

You've grown up, you know?

- "Prosit". - Cheers! - "Prosit"!

- Johann is funny. - Why ?

Not funny, weird.

What's wrong with him?

You do not see how ridiculous he is?

Why do you find him ridiculous? To me he seems quite moving.

I mean, when one does not notice the people who laugh at him...

I do not think he cares so much.

Isn't it possible to be in love without looking so ridiculous?

You've never been in love. Seeing things this way is superficial.

A person who loves is never ridiculous, believe me.

I would have really enjoyed seeing you in love.

Let's see, how would you get dressed? Which shoes would you have?

What about your hair? Wax? Gel? Powder?

I bet you would go crazy with hats. Yes, were they felt? Domed hats?

Straw? Made of silk? Like a gutter? Spool? Spring?

The papal or cylinder?

Or a sugar pan?

Not only, for love I cried.

Come on, professor, go to bed.

(Sunday, 2 August. Very important.)

(Today I've decided: there will be no place for love in my life.)

(Art needs this extreme sacrifice.)

(Only at this price it is possible to rise from the dark swamp...)

(.. in which humans are struggling.)

(Only art lives eternally and they won't rip it from my heart.)

(I hate them, I have no more doubts.)

(They sink day after day in their bodies)

(... like the mud that swallows every breath of life.)

(And the soul? What place can the soul have in their life?)

(Art is my real mother.)

(From her breast I will suck the milk that will make me immortal.)

I'll be right back, do not go away, professor, just a moment!

Johann!

Johann!

- What are you doing in there? - Ssh!

What's this ?

Now I'll show you. - Where are you going ?

Here, this is the first time she came, she was 5 years old.

One of her teeth.

She was beautiful, she had a little window here.

She whistled harder than me.

Look how nice.

She called me Ali Baba.

And this is from last year.

The other years I took what I could, but this year I know what I want.

What?

But maybe it's too much - What is it?

I would like a photograph of her.

That's all? Nothing else?

Will you help me, professor?

Well, you have to stop collecting fetishes.

- What? - All this stuff. You're old, you've grown up now.

You show her this box and tell her "I love you" once and for all.

What if she says no?

You must be optimistic, if she says no, you insist, you must fight.

But if the answer is no, you'll at least have the courage to throw away this junk.

Yes, yes, I promise, Will you help me take this picture?

"My real life ceased when I agreed to live with you."

- "And he goes:" I see it, You're moving away... "- Down, they'll see us.

Oh, but I cannot take it from here, it's too far.

"Wringing his hands with anguish whispers:..."

... 'Now, in a few minutes, whom I have betrayed will be here... "

"'... and to whom I should have been faithful for the eternity'."

- Look who's here! - Good morning, Hella.

- Hello. - What a nice surprise!

If I'm here it's to please a friend.

- Have you met Franz? - We met at the station.

- Who is this friend you're talking about? - He wants to remain incognito.

He is Lotte's admirer and asked me to take a picture of you.

- Really? And why didn't he come in person? "Well, you know, he's very shy.

- Of course, it's Johann! - Shy? But he is not shy, he is stupid.

You're unfair, Hella, he's a nice boy.

He is very simple, so genuine.

Big shoes and small brain?

If I were Johann I would smash your face

with my fists. But who do you think you are?

- What's wrong with her? - Nothing, she's fooling around.

- Sorry, but aren't you going to take a picture of me? - Oh, yes, right away.

- Give me that camera. - Yes, but please do not tell her I'm here.

Do not worry.

Ah! Help ! Franz, come, please, help!

Run, please, please! Oh my God, there's a huge spider!

Franz, it's horrible! Do something, please, kill him!

Why kill him? It's so cute, so elegant.

In the end I feel sorry for him. Don't you?

Think of how scared he must be in front of two giants like us.

"Oh, what is this power that attracts me, tempts me, calls me to the unknown?"

"All the power of the sea is concentrated in it."

"- But my... - .. thoughts... "

"... you cannot tie them and they will slip away..."

".. towards the unknown world!"

Get down, silly.

Hey, look at Zimmer.

If he goes on like this, he'll become an idiot.

- Come on, run! - Why did they run away so fast?

- Someone was masturbating. - You think so?

Dark contortions of sex. In summer we should go around naked, like the savages.

- And would you be brave enough? "Well, it's not

a heroic undertaking. What courage does it take?

If we are born naked, why not stay naked?

If you say that, it means you have a problem with it.

I do not have these stupid problems.

Neither do I, come to think of it. Shall we take a bath naked?

In front of your mother?

Mum !

- Who was there? - The boys of the college. - Ah, were they spying on me?

They were looking at your legs.

- This is Franz. - Ah, hello. - Nice to meet you. - How are you ?

- It's a bit uncomfortable. - Thank you.

- What was your name again? - Franz Schmidt.

- Like Hans Schmidt? - Yes, he's my father.

- I'll take a bath. And also Franz. - What?! And then how will you get dry?

Your blanket will be fine.

Come here, get closer.

And what is a famous doctor doing here in Immensee?

It must be difficult for a man like him to find the time for a vacation.

- And why right here in Immensee? - I brought him here.

Come on, do not be afraid of water, come too!

- Why? - I study popular traditions.

- Ah, good, it's interesting. - I want to write a book.

- Lotte told me that you live in Paris. - Yes, indeed, it's been a long time.

- But what are you waiting for? Come on, hurry up! - I have not heard!

Sorry.

- Do you need anything? - But weren't you going to take a bath?

What about your courage?

- I'm talking to your mother. - You'll have

plenty of time to talk. Come. - I have to go.

Come on, do not worry!

Mum won't look at you, she does not care, she turned away.

Pretend to be in Africa, among the savages.

- I just ate. - What did you say ? - Nothing.

I didn't hear you.

- What did you say? - It's slippery on these stones.

Give me your hand, I'll guide you.

There are no crocodiles here.

Let's run!

Ah, do not do that, do not do that, dear!

Calm down, you'll see we will get her back.

- Why did you make her escape? "I cut her chains

and gave her freedom back.

Is it possible that nobody understands me?

You are crazy! Crazy!

Calm down, please... Go to your room!

I hate you. I hate you ! I hate you !

Be careful, Johann.

- What is he doing up there? - He's trying to catch the monkey.

- How did he get up there? - Miss Hella made her run away.

She cut her chains.

Come on, smelly rascal beast!

Bitch...

Careful, stupid, the tail will break. Come on, throw her down!

Careful! Did you get hurt?

- Where did you get hurt? Let me see. - Nothing, it's just a scratch.

Go see the doctor.

It's not the case. - You're scared, aren't you?

- Are you okay? - Yes, yes, thank you.

- This is Mrs. Margherita,

Lotte's mother. - Pleased to meet you. - Hans Schmidt.

If you had dried after swimming, you would not have caught a cold.

You've made new acquaintances, haven't you?

- They seem nice. - Yes, extraordinary.

Lotte and I took a bath together, almost naked.

- In your underwear ? - Yes. In front of her mother.

I see.

I understand why you're so happy. And I'm happy too.

- Guess what I felt? - Well, I'd rather know that from you.

- I did not feel anything. - What do you mean?

- No desire. - Ah well.

When we were approaching that stream...

... there were some students masturbating, behind the bushes...

... while looking at Mrs. Margherita's legs.

You mean you did not feel anything like that instead.

Good thing I didn't send you to boarding school.

Yes, this is true, but... but there's something much more important.

The most important thing is to talk freely, as we do.

No, I meant that there is no contradiction

between my thoughts and my actions.

I met two people who behave and act like us.

Who think like us.

- I'm sure they talk a lot too. - In fact, they are close friends.

And what else did you discover?

Well, that the principles I feel inside of

me have taken real forms, I have lived them.

Up until now I realize that I had only

talked about it, without ever testing them.

Well, you're finally becoming an adult, and you'll soon leave me alone.

You talk and talk, you always talk, dad. You want to get old.

You talk too much too, and we'll never know if you have a fever.

Oh, the arm is a little red.

What a day!

You know...you were brave to undress in front of that young man...

It was a nice tear to all conventions.

I do not know how you did it.

Why? It is not a matter of courage.

"Or do you consider me inferior to the heroes of

your paintings? - But my paintings are dreams.

And I can't dream?

Oh, it got swollen.

You have to be careful that you do not get

infected. It can swell and come gangrene.

And the arm is amputated.

Oh, my God, no!

In a novel I read the story of a hunter bitten by an insect.

He became a dwarf because of the strong pain.

Dad! Dad!

Have you heard? Maybe it's better if you take a look.

If you want. But I do not think it's serious.

- I'm going to see how she is. - Okay.

- Who are you going to see? - The mother. Why ?

Maybe... for precaution it is better to give an injection.

I thought the same thing too.

Where's Franz?

He's upstairs, I advised him to stay in bed.

- I'm sorry, I pushed him to swim. - I know, but it's nothing.

- Don't we have that ointment? - Ah, yes, it's an idea.

- You will see, it is miraculous. - I'm sure. - It's a way of reciprocating.

- Would you like to sit down, professor? - Of course. Thank you.

- I kept it warm. - Thank you.

The monkey was not enough to do damage, they also invented the violin.

A lost fly that beats, beats, beats its wings.

Because he refuses to die.

His tiny heart must beat like a drum.

He dies. He dies. Doesn't even shout anymore.

Because he understood that there is no more hope.

Its paws sink into the glue, stick to each other.

They stick on the wings, the wings stick to the wings.

The wings, with the glue.

And now it's like a sleeping baby.

Tries turning on his side and he can't...

... because he's dying... slowly.

He dies slowly.

He dies.

He closes his eyes like resigned.

He closes his eyes as if he wants to fall asleep.

"I'm tired, I'm sleepy," he says.

But it's not true, he's dying.

He died.

Oh... Oh!

- Hey, what are you doing? - Silence, otherwise, you'll wake her up.

Go to sleep. Come, come.

Dear. Those are always around. Come.

Sleepwalking is a manifestation of hysteria.

Have you ever fallen out of bed, sleeping?

Perhaps, as a child.

Well, that's also a form of sleepwalking.

Ouch, the foot... Hella, not here, the river is there.

Slowly, this way. Come come.

But Hella's is the classic case.

The greatest risk would be to be woken up during the crisis.

But nothing has ever happened. I've known her for a long time.

I just wanted to explain to you the nature of this phenomenon.

Yes, but that's not what I wanted to know.

And what, then? I do not understand.

You're right, that's right, I do not know anything about sleepwalking,...

... but I wanted to know more about you.

Sorry but I do not know what you mean.

When I looked out the window I was a bit scared.

Hella was so pale...

Then I remembered a picture I saw in London.

The sky was blue, just like this.

The color was so compact...

And there was a woman coming down the steps of a tower.

While a man on a white snake came from the sea.

Yes, all right, but I do not understand. What do you mean?

You see...

You can't... You cannot always talk like you are doing an exam.

What is the purpose of undressing, then, if we remain dressed inside?

Please, it's urgent, I have to talk to your father.

- He's sleeping, it seems a bit difficult. - Try.

Huh?

Dad.

An interesting case. Mr. Grass would like you to...

What? Is someone sick?

Hella is sleepwalking.

Really? Tell him I'll see her tomorrow morning.

- He said he'll see her tomorrow morning. - Convince him...my daughter...

Do not worry, tomorrow morning. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm sleepy.

Good night.

- 16 and 17, first choice.

- Yes, thank you - Good catch! - Now go, it's not a good time

Now relax, let's talk. What did you think I would have asked?

- Nothing. I thought you would have looked at me in the eyes.

-And then? - I thought I had to lie down, as

in the hospital. - So lie down.

- Where? - Just where you are. Are you afraid?

Why are you so afraid?

You think it's not a doctor's visit?

I can tell your parents you have a serious disease,

if you want.

I'm not your father. You can talk to me.

Mum has started to draw...

Good morning, madam!

You’re so good madam.

When my sister will see them….

She won’t get married anymore.

Or, she would have to marry a Chinese man, isn’t it crazy?

A Tyrol wedding with Chinese lamps.

Against all forms of logics…

Our expert got shocked. He’s a purist.

Professor,

when they will find these lamps in the ruins of Immensee

They’ll think that a bunch of Chinese came here to eat sausages.

But it’s important to have a great party.

What do you think?

Yes, I’ll go get my sister so she can help you.

I believe what you said,

but I’m curious to know why you pretend to be a sleepwalker.

They don’t want to send me to Vienna to study drama.

So I wanted to convince them that I’m strange

so they won’t love me anymore and they’ll let me go.

Don’t you think it will be much worse?

You must face your problems more directly.

Why do you want to be an actress?

A gypsy predicted me a brief but intense career ...

... and everything will begin after the day of tears and violas.

- You never took Franz to a gypsy? - Not really.

Listen, I'll give you some drops.

It's just water, just to make your dad happy, okay?

I will not tell him anything, but you have to try and be calm.

All right? I have a reputation to uphold.

It's nothing serious. Five drops before

bedtime and it will not happen again.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

And this would be a visit? While having breakfast?

The truth is always the same. No one takes you

into account because you're nobody.

You're just a peasant!

- Mm ... - Another one.

Now you.

More?

Don't they look good together?

Didn't Franz help you? Did he give you the photograph?

Look, go away, you're crazy.

Will you wait for me? I will be right back.

- Dad. - Do you need anything?

I just wanted to know about Hella.

Do you know what it is? Nothing. She pretends to be sleepwalking.

But this is the least, looking at her parents, poor girl.

- How do you know? - Experience.

What are you doing here?

Look.

You can get them back, you know?

- Are you mad at me? - No, no. I will never be angry ...

I love you!

Calm down. Let's talk, shall we?

All right. All right...

I love you more than my mother! More than baby Jesus!

I'll smash your face, Johann!

Come out if you dare, come.

Be a man, do not run away! You are not a man, you're a pig!

You coward! You act like a sheep but you're a pig!

Come here you ... Uh!

Hurry, hurry, hurry!

But where are you going?

look at me! Come here, defend yourself!

Be careful, Professor.

You coward!

Hypocritical...

- Lotte, Lotte! - You're a traitor! - they are fighting!

Pimp!

- Enough, are you crazy? - You are worse than two savages. Now stop.

Johann, get up!

- I swear, madam, I didn't want to, it's not my fault.

Bring some water.

Yes Madam.

Forget everything, please.

Here is the water.

- It's nothing. - I'm sorry.

Oh, forget about it. Let's stay friends as before.

It was my fault.

What's happening?

And what are you doing up there? The show is over, you can go.

There are no guilty people, there are errors.

Lotte and Franz have both made mistakes.

Because instead of reason they used force.

- And Johann was imprisoned in the chicken coop. - Yeah!

We are nice and calm talking and solving every problem.

Reasoning is always useful.

At least to eat with appetite.

I thought of not saying anything, but why hide it?

Lotte has been crying for hours, as she had never done before.

- Was it just for love? - Of course not.

There are many things they have to understand,

so I say that they still need us.

And helping them, we grow old quietly behind them.

But this is not true, you look like two sisters Lotte and Margherita.

- Yes, but who am I? The bad and sour one? - The beautiful one.

But I didn't ask you.

We are never mistaken as brothers. I am the mother hen and Franz the chick.

What will you put on your head? The two-cornered hat? The skullcap?

Or, why not, the sugar loaf?

I want to make love to you.

- I'm scared. - Why, Margherita? These are our fears.

- Are you sure ? - Of what? - Make love.

- Do you like me? - Of course, what nonsense! - Physically, I mean.

I like you very much!

What do you feel stronger? Love or attraction?

You believe that we can make love on the boat?

Josephine, a girl who was here a long time ago ...

...fell in love with a boatman.

She always told me about her sweet memories of his boat.

She was with him for five years.

He came to our new house just after my father's death.

I was very fond of her. She was like a sister to me.

I shouldn't have told my mother everything.

From now on I will speak with you only.

And you will only talk to me. Swear it to me!

Yes, I swear.

We are entitled to our secrets. Don't you think so? Am I not right?

Sure.

The oar!

- We're in trouble. - I'm so stupid! I had to be more careful.

Do not worry, these things happen.

I'll try to retrieve it.

Damn it.

Move, go ahead.

Move away.

Further to the left, we are moving away. Wait.

It's gone. Nothing to do.

- We wouldn't have done it, right? - No.

- I think so too. - Just like this?

Damn boat!

- These things should be spontaneous. - You are right.

We talked about it too much.

We were missing the magic. Yes, the magic.

As if someone had forced us.

You're a bad sailor, Franz.

We didn't sink.

Lotte, it's so humid here, put this on.

If I should say it, I feel more excited than Lotte.

- It was her first time, you know? - I imagined. Even for Franz.

When it happened to me ... I did not want to see a man for more than three years.

For them it was different.

You are right. You saw how passionately they were kissing?

- I confess that I envy them a little bit. - Come on, Dad, harder.

Let's join them, come on!

We won! We won!

Another meter and I would have collapsed.

I'm happy.

- Marlene, what can I do? - Did you ask the professor? He went out a while ago.

Yes, but he says he doesn't know anything about these things.

And he doesn't listen to me.

Try to sleep.

- Good night. - Good night? Good morning.

They didn't even make me close my

eyes and dare to say "goodnight".

- I wish she died! - Ssh!

I should have died instead of giving birth to you.

My poor baby.

- Get the drops, they'll put you to sleep.

I do not want anything and I do not take anything.

- I just want that the damn beast dies. - Please, love.

- They're good for you - All right.

- But now I'm leaving. - Yes, as you wish. As you like.

- I won't even come back for lunch. - All right, but drink.

- Not even for dinner. - Yes, of course, but drink it all.

Come on!

- I'm starving. - Must be the air!

Here we are.

We brought some ice cream.

- Hand me that dish, please. - Here it is.

This is for you.

Eat.

What do I care that it's always like that? Now I'll show you.

- First stretch the sheet from the head. - No!

I can't bear you sometimes...

- All right, try it yourself. - Stretch the sheet. Help me. - No, no!

Stay here.

Like this?

- Profile! - I cannot hear ! - Towards the sun.

I'll do it myself.

You're ugly. At least smile!

You're too serious, strike a pose.

Do something.

Take off your jacket.

The pullover.

Now the pants.

Take off everything.

They're so beautiful, they look fake.

Do they love each other?

They're only two bodies.

Nothing else matters.

Why do you say that?

- Why do you want to reduce everything to two simple bodies? - Too little?

Two mammals in the natural environment ...

... primal instinct.

Yes, why not?

No, do not do that, please. Leave me alone.

If I don't love you I can't ...

... I can't feel anything.

I'm not the way you think, you're wrong.

I'm not going to satisfy your instincts!

Look at them ... That is the true love I never had.

I only met men without gentleness, without tenderness, just like you.

You were talking and I thought you were different.

There I was, hanging on every word...

Let me go.

- Mm! - Hey, you're hurting me.

I need a sip. - No ! - Give it to me. - No !

Stop it. - If you can manage...

- Don't ... - No! - I enjoy it.

- Stop! Give me a shot. - No...

No!

No…

And so I discovered that I had a lot of fleas.

Good! Since you like this room better we will give it to you.

- You'll sleep here and we'll go in the

other room. - Are you happy, honey? Me too.

- But now cover up, dear. - If you wake up before us, coffee is there.

Need alcohol to warm up?

He's right, it's cold.

Good night guys.

Franz.

Do you want some?

- Ouch! - Did you get hurt ?

No, my head is spinning ... I drank too much.

Here, drink.

I'm glad they are together. They are a lovely couple.

You saw how they hugged each other? They look like two kids.

I must say that I did not expect it. Did you?

I had not noticed anything. You've seen, she asked me if I was happy...

Anyway ... I'm happy for her, too.

Now they'll make love. They have no problems.

Can you imagine, if they get married

we will be brother and sister.

And so we won't make love anymore.

Enough, I'm choking!

I love you. I love you! My love, I love you so much!

Hold me tight, like that!

Love love ! Love !

I love you too! I like you.

Lotte ...

Lotte!

My love...

Lotte!

Friday 18th August, the monkey is dead

Yes, I hated her,

I hated her deeply, but I didn’t kill her!

Why they don’t believe in me?

They never believed in me!

Their locks will never suffocate my desire to be free, my thoughts,

They will never tie my passionate wishes…

they’ll fly away…

towards an unknown world from which I want to be hidden.

This is the last page of my journal.

The day of cries and violas has come.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

I’ll run away, far away….

Don't be afraid.

- Do you have a pair of shoes? - Where are you going ? - To Vienna.

- And then what will you do in Vienna? - I do not know.

- Here they are - Maybe I'll go to my aunt's.

- It depends. - Depends on what ?

- On freedom. - And how will you live without your father and your mother?

As I have lived until now, I think.

But I'll be freer.

I will become an actress.

I'll work in all the theaters of the capital.

And then someone will listen to me.

It's not much.

Thank you.

I'll remember it.

You're lucky. You have two wonderful parents.

You sleep in the same room, you are always together ...

Well... I'm out of here.

And thanks again for everything. Goodbye.

Excuse me. The professor left with Mrs. Margherita ...

... and they said they'll be back tomorrow morning.

- Do you know where they went? - I do not know

I took them by cart to the village and that's it.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

Maybe I have the flu.

It's possible.

You have watery eyes.

- Wait. I want to take you by the arm. - Oh ...

- As two young spouses? - Yes.

- "Let's not bother the birds in the nest." - Just a minute. - All right.

Quietly.

- There is only Franz. - What about Lotte?

In her room.

Yes, she is there.

- Maybe they had a fight. - They're so sweet.

You are not sleeping?

Did something happen?

- What's going on? - Excuse me. Professor, my daughter ran away.

- Doesn't Franz have a picture of her? - One moment.

Hella ran away. I will die of broken heart. What a shame!

Franz has no pictures.

But why shall we call the police, I do not think it's the best way to find her.

- Good night. - Good night.

- It's incredible. I would have sworn that ... - We got fooled.

- They never made love. - I don't understand. They love each other.

I'm not so sure. No ... I'm not sure of anything.

Do not dramatize.

We'll think about it tomorrow. Let's take our time to understand.

Why tomorrow, Hans? Let's talk now instead.

Because now we're too ... too agitated to understand or solve something.

Yes you are right.

Tomorrow everything will be fixed.

I thought about it all night long and this morning.

It's clear that you do not accept gifts.

What we have not had at your age, we offer you and you refuse it.

I wonder why but I could not get an answer.

- Can you give it to me now? - No.

You're still in love with Franz?

But you do not want to be with him anymore.

No.

Excuse me, I do not feel very well. We'll talk about it tonight.

- We need to separate - Why?

- Because it's our fault. - I refuse to think that.

- We did nothing that could harm them. - Did you see them?

They will have their reasons, we are not involved.

I do not want to run the risk of making Lotte suffer.

I do not want to feel responsible. Is this enough for you ?

- You want to keep company to the saints and martyrs

of the calendar? - Try to understand.

If I make a mistake with Lotte ... everything else will be wrong.

But what is "everything else"?

- Me. - But it's crazy! And stupid.

Do you think so? You are silly.

- Margherita ... - Please!

If you want you can stay. I prefer to leave earlier.

Do you mind?

And what about Mrs. Margherita?

None of your business.

- Tell me what you want to do. - Why don't you say it?

I cannot decide for you.

I'm coming to Vienna.

- I have not found a single one. - But there are!

There, under the trees, it's full of raspberries! I'm sure.

Here, I remember it very well.

They are all gone, like ... like magic.

Someone must have picked them.

No, they were here, you know? I was…

Over there! Right there I saw them, with Hans.

It was full!

It was full!

Why are you crying?

Because you're suffering Lotte. And when you feel bad, I feel bad too.

- But I'm fine. - No it is not true.

If it is for Franz, you're wrong.

Some misunderstanding, perhaps, but we shouldn't make a fuss.

I feel good.

Mom, tell me what's wrong.

Sorry. I'm sorry.

It's strange, I have my old headache again.

It's humid, you know, and it bothers you. It always does.

Yes, maybe ...

Let's go back to the hotel. Do you mind if I go ahead?

- Franz? - Yes.

- Go, go away now, run, and do not worry about me. - Thank you.

- What is wrong with her? - What do I know? Who can understand them?

- And the professor? - He left, she ran away, this one is crazy ...

- And to make things worse, Johann is dumber than usual. - Where is Franz?

- Have you seen Franz? - I took him to the station. - The station?

- They left to return to Vienna. - Take me, maybe we'll make it in time.

- What happened to your eye? - It was my father. - Why?

Because I put a dead mouse in the bed of Mrs. Grass.

Why?

When they found out that you two were sharing the same room ...

...they said that you're a slut.

I had to get revenge.

Quicker!

- Do you like my name ? - Johann? - Yes, a lot.

If you have a child, will you call him Johann?

Johann Schmidt. It's pretty.

Franz!

Franz!

Come madam, I want to introduce you to the newlyweds.

- Hurray! - Did you see professor what a party? And you wanted to leave.

It's a wonderful party, they are all enjoying it.

- Let's go dancing - Yes, thank you.

Look ! Perfect !

Professor, come on!

One moment, one moment!

That's enough!

Come on, come and dance.

No more talk now? The professor has lost the power of speech.

What will you do after the hangover? You'll drink again?

It's all your fault! You're presumptuous.

We are all open books for you, but I don't like this game anymore.

Lotte will come with me.

She'll do what I say, at the cost of keeping her on a leash like the monkey.

If you want to risk your son's life, go ahead, but I'll think about Lotte.

They love each other, they do not love each other, it's too hard for me.

Indeed, I've decided, they do not love each other.

So let's end this farce. Let's think about something else from now on.

Stop it!

Next year, don't come here, go to the beach.

Wait a moment.

I know what you did is priceless, Johann, but please, accept these.

Here you are.

I'm going to sleep.

Lotte ...

Lotte...
