All language subtitles for Die Geschwister (Brother and Sister, 2016).ENG

It said something about
750 a month before costs.

720, I think...

We could put up blinds
on the inside, or curtains...

ls there anything else that I...

Have you got anything else?
- Like what?

Any other income?
The landlord will ask about that.

I thought you were the landlord?

Hello. Here, for you.

My parents signed as guarantors.

It's a lovely flat. I think
the old floorboards are great.

[Polish accent]
Excuse me?

Do you maybe have another pen?
This one doesn't work.

How about coming in two days?

We have a smaller flat
with a window onto the park.

You want to move in together?

Yes, is that a problem?
- No, not at all.

BROTHER AND SISTER

Didn't you want to ask me out
for dinner sometime?

Sure.

How about next weekend?

Boddin, no. 32.
A hole just opened up in the courtyard.

The paving collapsed.
It wasn't there yesterday.

And guess what?
A kid stepped into it today.

It was still dark, supposedly.

Are you listening?
- Yeah, sure.

Lenzen got a fax from their lawyer:
"Failure to ensure safety".

Personal liability, he said.
As if I'd dug the hole myself.

Have you been there yet?

I've been trying to reach the
caretaker, but he won't pick up.

Send Dieter with some warning tape. And
Lenzen needs a photo for the insurance.

It doesn't concern you much, huh?

What?

Other people's problems.
- Have you got problems?

Do you rem ember me?

I came to view a flat.

12, Briesestrasse.
You came with your girlfriend.

No, she was my sister.

What do you want?

I saw your car.
- You didn't hand in your application.

I thought we could maybe
meet up sometime.

Listen, I can't help you two.

Our rules apply to everyone.

That's why we need income details,
debt reports...

Just to make a date?

What makes you think
I want to go on a date with you?

At the viewing...

You looked at me
differently than the others.

I'm quite sure I didn't.

There. Again.

You need it, huh?

A bit of exercise
after a long day at work...

What do you do here in Berlin?

I don't know yet.

Maybe I'll study or something.

I really like it here.

I like the guys.

Easy, now.

Watch out for the edges.

I thought she finally had it
under control.

Nina.

That she'd grow out of it
now she's in her mid-forties.

Sure, we all calm down.

But that's not a bad thing, is it?

You can't always
run head-first into things.

Is that all?

The lamps.
- Ah, yes.

Now she's in there again.
How many times is it now? Five?

It's good business for the clinic.
"Great, it's her again!"

The whole programm again.

It won't change a thing,
but everyone knows each other.

Save yourself the effort.

Why?

It might be just a bad contact.
- Yeah.

A bad contact.

I can't let go.

I don't want her to suffer, you know?

They can't give you any information.
You're only her ex.

Was she the one who called you?

No, Heike.

Nina's girlfriend.

She came because of her car battery.
When you...

What?

I don't know why
I'm telling you all this.

Because it feels good.

And I'm the only person
who'll listen to you.

The things you know!

Come on, let's finish.

Nice flat, MrAgent.
But you don't even have a microwave.

I'm not an agent. I'm a manager.

Netflix? Sky?

Anything?

You do have internet, don't you?

Why view flats you can't afford?
-Who says we can't?

We can afford it.

It's just we don't have
the stupid official papers.

Where do you get the money?
- Sonja works.

The pay's okay.

Your girlfriend.
- No, my sister!

What's up with you?
- Nothing.

You don't look very similar, that's all.

Do you remember
all your clients so clearly?

Where do you live now?
- We have a room, a sublet.

A sublet, sub-lease,
something like that.

But we have to leave soon.

Don't worry, we'll find a new place.

Sonja and me, we don't need much.

Bye.

By the way...

They have an offer on:

The first month's free,
the next two are half price.

Check it out.

Mr Meisner...

How is Elbe no.18 doing?
- It's fine.

I was there yesterday.
- And the cellars?

That has to be done.

What's that mean?

They need to be cleared out.

Rats.

Yes, but new bait will do.

As long as you keep an overview...

Okay, fine.

Hello, Thies.
- Hey.

[Polish]

It's due to be renovated.

It has central heating and hot water.

The costs go through the house.

[]

[Accent]
How much do you want?

Nothing is for free.

Listen, you need a flat
and this place is empty.

A lot of flats are empty.

Yes. But you can have this one
if you want it.

Whose name is on the contract?

There's no contract.
- Why not? We can pay.

What if we quarrel?

You'll have to resolve that yourselves.

You know exactly what I mean.

Without a contract we have nothing.
- It's your decision.

Starting when?

Starting... now.

If you want.

Thies is okay.

The mattress and dishes
are a present from Marcos.

And the tap might drip a bit, but...

if it gets any worse
just let me know.

Stop!

Wait...

I have all the papers:
Non-arrears certificate,

credit report, salary records
for the last three months...

You run a family business.
Maybe that's why.

What's the problem
with it being a family business?

Excuse me, I'd like to know
about the renovations.

Sorry, but we're talking.
Would you mind waiting?

I didn't know I had to queue up.

You don't, but if two people are talking
you should wait, right?

I was only asking!

The decorators
are going to paint it white.

If you do it yourself,
you get two months rent-free.

As you like.

Can I choose the color?
- Yes.

I'll have to ask you
to fill out this form again.

Hi!

Anything wrong?
- Do you work for them?

We heard you can organize accommodations.

Who told you that?
- It's what we heard.

Who is We'?

We help people without official papers
find jobs, flats and so on.

There are a lot of them in Berlin.

What's up with him? Can't he talk?

We need people to help us.

Preferably small or mid-size flats.

One or two rooms.

You get a proper German name on the
contract, a deposit and everything.

What?

Sorry, but I'm not the right person.

What the hell is this?
-what?

I don't know who you spoke to,
but I can't help you.

You don't own anything,
but still you work with them!

Look what I found.

It's got a lamp, filter,
everything you need.

So what have you got in mind?

Well, we have an empty room.

Are you going to help me, then?

What the hell are we doing?

Well, we're screwing.
Now you're delivering our new aquarium.

Come on, I can't manage it alone.

What are you doing?

You're serious, aren't you?

This is an ecosystem.
It has to stay in balance.

There must be some teabags
in the kitchen. It's an old trick:

Tea softens the water.

There.

Now we have to wait for a bit.

It'll be clear in the morning.

Plants filter the water
and prevent algae.

You speak pretty good German.
- I learned in primary school.

Our German teacher
set up an aquarium with us.

Ms Sakwinska.

And Russian too?
- Russian?

There's an address book
in Russian in the kitchen.

You'll have to ask Sonja.

Here, do it like this.
- Like this?

It's tasty. Do you want some?

My mum always worried
that I didn't eat enough.

But I always had a stash of chocolate.

A spoiled prince.

Behind the shelf in my room,
with the porno mags.

Until Mum cleaned up behind there.

She's very religious, you know.

In one of the mags,
a nun was giving a priest a blow job.

After that, Mum went to church every day.

I think it gave her some inspiration.

They've put her on
those bloody pills again. Ci

Citalopram.
- Cita... Right.

The same old shit.

They were never good for Nina,
says Heike.

Yes, but why does Heike tell you
and not the doctor?

She won't sit down,
doesn't drink tea or smoke anymore...

But she comes here making accusations!

She stands there saying,
"All men are the same!

They only want women who are
young and pretty. And compliant!"

What the hell does that mean,
'compliant?

Nina left me. Have you
forgotten?

No.

Sorry, I'm chewing your ear off again.

How are things with you?

Fine.

I've gotten to know some people.

Some people?

Yes, I'm helping them move house.

Hola, chica!
Hey, nice ars!

Come with us!

What do you want?

You have a key, someone to fuck,
and someone who's indebted to you.

What more do you need?

Is it a problem that I sleep with Bruno?

It's Bruno's problem, not mine.

My problem is that you turn up here
at 4 am without knocking.

Why are you lying to me?

Both of you.

You're not siblings.
You're not even Polish.

And you're Sherlock Holmes.

I don't have any papers.

I'm not allowed to be here.
Not in Germany, nor the EU.

You understand?
- Yes, I do.

Then what don't you understand?

You come in here,
snooping around for illegals...

Is that your hobby?
Are you going to call the cops?

Where do you come from?
- What's it to you?

You don't know it anyway.

Or have you ever been to Belarus?

Where did you two meet?
And why pretend to be siblings?

People like the idea. You did too.

Siblings are always the good guys.
They stick together.

I don't believe you.

Really? But you're curious, aren't you?

Would you like to lie in the middle?

We didn't lie to you.

Sonja is my sister
and I'm her brother.

Sonja worked for my parents
when I was younger.

She looked after me.
We were very close.

My mum noticed it and didn't like it.

So she just threw Sonja out.

Now I look after both of us.

Very well.

About the flat...
You don't owe me anything, okay?

But I want the truth.
No more lies.

I want the spare key.

It's a master key.

It might be a bit strong.

No, I don't have an appointment.

I called 30 times! It's always busy!

Someone's here for you.

He says you promised him something.

Hello, Mr Meisner.
- Hello, Mr Akyol.

You received my documents, Mr Meisner?
You said you'd see to it.

Yes, I've passed them on.

You said you'd recommend me.
- Among other people, yes.

I gave the owner three names.
But he decides.

Okay, Mr Meisner,
what do you say to this:

Minister for Urban Development:
"We want a city that is affordable,

especially for young families."
We are a young family.

Okay, then take it up with the Minister.

I need this flat. We need this flat!

Sorry. Maybe you'll have more luck

with the next flat, or...
- Luck?

Are you listening to yourself? 'Luck'?

You sit here in your glass box with your
fucking potted palm, telling me...

Yes, just like last time. Of course.

Yes.

Hello.

No, no, it's not East German,
it's all from the West.

What are you doing here?

I wanted to see what you do
in your side job.

It's not a job. I just help Marcos out.

Well?

It's all good.

Give me a hand.
- Really?

How do you want it?
- How do you think?

Marcos! This is Bruno.

Marcos!
- Hello.

How's business?
- Good.

How much do the chairs cost?
- All four?

Maybe.
- A hundred.

And just one?
- Thirty.

Thirty...

How much does this table cost?
-130.

Even if you don't have any money?
- Everyone has money here.

I know a guy in Poland.
He has good stuff, as much as you do.

Oh, yeah?
- Yes.

When a new IKEA opened in Poznan
four years ago,

people threw everything out,
just put it on the street.

I could get it for a good price.

How much would we get with delivery?

Thirty.
- Thirty percent?

After it's sold.

Okay, but we need 200 euros up front.

He's a treasure hunter, your friend.

It looks that way.

How do you say "good deal" in Turkish?

Hakuna Matata!

Oh, my feet!

Sonja's right.
You are a spoiled prince.

Sonja needs me.

She usually knows what she wants,
but when it com es to men

she always ends up confused.

A bit like you.

She's lucky to have you, then.

I keep the idiots away from her.

Really?

The last one, Steve, had nice eyes,
but he was totally uptight.

He couldn't even take Sonja in his arms.

He wanted to take her
to a heavy metal concert.

He said she could marry him.
Great idea!

He proposed twice,
but always got cold feet.

Steve had a big car
with a wicked sound system.

You could turn it up really loud.

He told Sonja
she could drive it sometime.

She almost has her license, you know?

But whenever they were alone in the car

he just wanted to hump with her.

I tried it with Steve too,
but it didn't work out.

What?

Steve or driving a car?

Both.

I thought it was worth a try.

[Russian]

I once went to a heavy metal gig.
- You?

Yes, I was 15.

I rode there on my bike.

It was in an industrial area.

It was so loud
that I thought my head would explode.

That's the only thing I remember.

I can't even remember the band's name.

Does he play music too?

Who?

Steve.

He's in a band with some friends.

When he's about 12 years old,

his mum buys him a guitar.

She has different ideas,

Simon and Garfunkel, or maybe Karat...

But instead he plays these chords,

much too loud and fast.

And when he shakes his head...

his mind is empty.

Maybe that's what he wants to share
with his girlfriend.

"I want to show you something", he says.

And they go to his club.

They hand out earplugs at the entrance.

"No, thanks", she says.

There are no ear plugs
where she comes from.

Houses get blown up not far away.

"Let's get started", he shouts,

and closes his eyes.

It's dark in the club.
No one needs to see anything.

And it's good like that.

But at some point she wants to get out.

The club is too crowded,

sweaty, stinky men
stand around, staring at her.

So what?

What's so bad about that?

Nothing, I guess.

I once knew a guy
who always listened to music.

But only by women.

Why does one only listen to women?

He thinks...

He feels that men on stage
are conceited.

He doesn't like rockers.
They pose...

It's too macho. He thinks
everything manly is macho.

You have to ask
why is he interested in men.

Yes, you do.

It goes back and forth.

Very close...

and then very distant.

How can a person stand it?

You don't have to.

Here!

Did you know there are
vodka filters for aquariums?

You need it for the nitrates.
You can make them yourself.

And the instructions are by Ms Sakwinska!

The flats in sector C
have been evaluated and...

the initial impressions are good.

Now we're waiting for some feedback.

But the first rent increases
have been decided.

I know we have a tough job,

constantly mediating
between tenants and owners,

and dealing with
all kinds of different people...

It can lead to frustration.

But that's what we're here for.

To deal with things
professionally and with transparency.

And I wanted to commend
one of our team today: Mr Meisner.

I think that he has shown
a special talent

for deescalating conflicts
while remaining very decisive.

Okay, that was all.

Have you sent anyone to Elbe no. 20?

Kaminski was going to do it
when he has some free time.

Shit...

Hello.
- Hello.

Yes, right.
The flat is listed as empty.

It's my mistake.
- Like I said.

But there are people living here.

What now?
- Boss? I need some pliers.

Thanks.

Can you close it up again?

We only just opened it up.

Okay, then carry on.

But do it quickly.
- I always work quickly.

You can still use the water.

And would you open
the taps in the bathroom?

ASYLUM FOR EVERYBODY

The fitters work for me.
They don't care who lives there.

I don't want them in my flat.

I'll tell them to start at ten. They only
need to do the pipes in one room.

It's not about when they come!

When I arrived in Germany
a while back,

I'd wake up every night,
my heart thumping.

I thought someone had come in,
was holding me down

and trying to choke me.

It didn't actually happen, not yet.

But in my head it did.

It's a lot better since Bruno came.

I don't want it to start again.

Do you want to stay here?

Why do you ask?

Do you want to?
- I'm not on the run.

No?
- No.

I have a job, friends...

I thought you wanted to marry
to get a passport...

because you want to stay.

Listen, Thies, I...

I'll manage.

Here or somewhere else.
I don't need anyone.

And if I do,
it's only because he needs me too.

[German/Polish]
It's delicious!

Excuse me.

"Przepraszam". That's hard!

Goodbye.

No.

Polish language.

Polish language?

Do you like the fact that I'm Polish?

Does it get you hot?

Apparently.

It gets me hot.

Shall we stop by your parents' place?

If my mother knew I was here
and didn't visit her...

I'm glad to be away from her.

I wouldn't have made it without Sonja.

I think my mother
hated her from the start.

I thought she worked for your parents?
- Yes.

"Cleaner from Belarus
hits on only son!"

But it's better than a guy, huh?
- Who knows?

You're gay. You like men.

Says who?

Well, you like me.

That's true. I like you.

Up ahead.

Hey, Bruno.

300.

How much?
-200?

250.

What are you doing?

Taking a break.

We have to carry on. Sonja's waiting.
- Sonja's working.

This is a place for lonely men.
You're not lonely.

Exactly.

For the whole 10 hours we've been driving
I wanted to sleep with you.

Good evening.

We'd like a room for the night, please.

For both of you?
- Yes.

25.
- Okay.

Name, signature.

And can we have two beers, please?

29.
- Make it 30.

We have happy hour today.

In Club Holiday next door.

First drink is free.
- Thanks, but we're tired.

What was that about?

Come on, let's go down.
-Where to?

Didn't you hear?
They're waiting for us.

Come on!

[]

Give me 100 euros.

Come on. I know your pockets
are full of cash.

What exactly is this all about?

Can't they find someone else?

You pay them to leave us alone.

I hope you have some more.

For another 50
they go in one room, we go in another.

I think it's our turn now.

Come on.

Isn't it worth it?
For a whole night alone with me?

No...

No!

I shouldn't have left Sonja alone!

She doesn't need a guardian.
She can fend for herself.

Sonja needs me!
- She doesn't! No one needs you!

Or me.
It's vanity. It's cowardly.

No! Sonja and I look after each other!

You're the coward here, no one else!

I'm here, though.

Where are you going?

To look for her.

How does it continue?

Your fairytale about the siblings?

I don't know.

Fine.

It goes on.

Let me through.

What? What's wrong?

No...

No.

You'll sell it, just like all the rest.

Oh, yeah?

This here?

This junk was cheap 30 years ago.

Look at it!
It's all falling apart.

My customers are crazy,
but not stupid.

Then keep my share.
It'll work out, you'll see.

You do it every damned day,
and now you complain?

All I'm saying is, this is junk!

Really?

And this stuff isn't?

This stuff? This crap here?

Let's take a 10-minute break.

I'd like to know where they are.

Is that why you're here?
- Yes.

Well, they're not here.

Have you spoken to them?

I don't know if you get it.

Moving to a new town
is no walk in the park.

They'll have to start from scratch.

Which town?

No one has to hide from me.
I know them.

It's not important where.

It's a self-managed housing project.

Since when?

What do you mean?
-When did the project start?

It's always on short notice.

I'm sorry, but...

Sonja had to make a decision.

And you? Do you know them?

Everyone here knows them.

I just want to know if they're okay.
- Sure. Why not?

As long as you're okay, huh?

This building has been sold.

The owner wants us out.

They want to smarten the place up.

But you know all about that, huh?

Do you have a contract?

The last owner was easy going.

We gave him 50 every month
and everything was fine.

Okay.

It's a verbal leasing contract.

There are precedents.
"Sale does not affect lease".

It's not a long-term fix,
but it can be costly for the landlord.

Can I ask you something?

Why did you actually help them?
I don't get it.

Hello.

We're going to turn it on again.

I left a message for you.

Have they left?

Yes.

I'm sorry.

It all looks fine.

Thank you.

Goodbye.

Team meeting's in half an hour.
I need you there.

Come on.

She might be in the other block.
Ah, here she is.

That way, number 374.
- Thanks.

Nice to see you.

Want some cake?
- Yes, please.

How are you doing?

Improving.

That's good.

Here.
- Thanks.

It's actually quite tasty.

It's a bit dry.
- Yes.

They skimped on the cherries.

Have you been to the lake?

It's nice.

You're right, it is dry.

Thurman’s...

She's doing better.

I hope she'll be coming out soon.

She was pleased to see you.
- Yeah, well...

You think so?

Why are you laughing?

No medication
could possibly be that good.

For here, please.
- Okay.

I'll take a seat outside.

Sorry, can I sit here?
- Sure.
