(sounds from above)

(Polish) I'm done.
Should I leave the lights on?

You can figure everything out.
I'll finish then.

Thanks.

Have a beautiful holiday.

(owl hoot)

(car door slams)

(Polish) Kai?
Why are you sitting here in the dark?

(Polish) Sit down.

I have to tell you something.

Everything okay?

(Kai) I never gave you the whole thing
Truth told about me...

Do you remember
in the summer of 1990,

as mom and me
were with you again?

(Polish) We have to be home,
before it gets dark.

Otherwise my father will freak out again.

Let him freak out.
He's just screaming.

Sometimes he also gets a stick.
Look here.

Then he hit so hard
that it bled.

My father wants to kill me.

He got me once
pressed under water in the bathroom,

until I passed out.

No shit?

That's why we're here.

Let me.

Wow.

[Laughs]

(Kai) Can I have more?
(German) First give Dagna her tea.

(Stinging sound gets louder)

(heartbeat gets louder)

(Intro-Music)

Kai, when you're done,
Please come out to the stable.

Alone.

(goat mows)

Do you trust me?

(goat complains)

Do you want it?

Tell me if you feel anything.

We can go home.

What about our cabin?
We have to repair the roof.

Gotta convince your father
that he doesn't tear it down.

Say it's a family relic,
or so.

You'll think of something.

Then we'll end it,
as soon as I'm back.

Maybe you can
come visit us.

Your mom said
that your father must never know

who and where we are.

So that you always have each other
you can hide here.

Maybe I have to
yes, hide again soon.

[Muffled audible] Here we are again.
I tested him.

He's not like you.

We will see.

You can go back to your bed
sleep if you want.

Or here.

(Soft piano music)

(Arthur) Help your mother.

I won't do anything to him.

Come out.

Where is the glass?

Come out.

(Ominous music)

The last flood hit the dike
damaged at the customs bridge.

I'm going to today
help with the work.

If you want, come with me.

How... can a dike break?

A dike breach then happens...

if the soil

due to excessive water pressure
is softened from the inside.

The more water there is in the Oder,

the more water flows
through every little hole.

Water always finds a way.

Unstoppable.

A small tunnel
one vole is enough...

and the water rinses
just remove the dike.

This is from before.

Well Kai, I want to believe you.

But if I find out
that you lie to me...

(bicycle bell)

(Roland) Hello, Mr. Kring.

Heard they help with the dike.
We want to get involved.

Nice to have you back, Kai.

How are you doing? It's all ok?

Here. To you.

Thanks. -I found something
I have to show you something.

He doesn't want to tell me.
Really big secret.

We're going there together.

Tomorrow after school.
-The two of them have to work here.

Okay, then on the weekend.

Maggie, Kai. Get ready.

Waiting at the car. We'll drive right away.

(Ominous music)

(Rooming, muffled sound
from chalk on blackboard)

(Teacher, subdued) ...knows someone
another organ?

(Student, subdued) The kidney?
-Yes.

(chalk on blackboard)

(teacher) ...another organ?

(Student) The liver?

(Muffled confusion
of children's voices)

Well... how was it in the prison?

I... wasn't in trouble.

Everyone says
who come out of prison.

What do you have in that glass?

No! No Please!

Let go, you brainiac. Give it to me!

August stop it! Fuck off!

It's all ok?

(break bell sounds)

See you later, okay?

(Ominous music)

No....

And what do you want to do now?

(Kai screams in pain)

(droning swells)

You listen to me carefully now
and do what I tell you.

What happened?

I can't remember anything.

I have August
hit with a stone.

When you saw him
you fell over.

They say you're in shock.

(knock on the door)

(Minna) Maggie, visit for you.

(Roland) My father sorted it out.

The Conradys don't file a complaint.

You have to from now on
just keep your distance from them.

What's wrong with Kai?

(stinging sound)

(Stinging sound gets louder)

(Whispering voices)

She doesn't remember.

(Arthur) Come here.

Your sister
must never know

what really happened.

What we both have
That has to stay between the two of us.

We have to
protect from the truth.

You have to
protect from the truth.

And August?

August Conrady
will take it to the grave.

Exactly like you!

Promise me.

Say it.

I promise.

(Quiet moan)

(cracking a branch)

(Whispering voices)

(Stinging sound swells)

(Step)

(Kai) Who are you?

What do you want from me?

(man) I want to help you.

You're wasting your time.

I know exactly what you're going through.

You inherited it from your father,
just like I do from mine.

We don't know each other, but
our fathers were once allies.

Friends,
two of the few heirs of our species.

Like you and I.

(Kai) Who... is your father?

Someone,
who can give you a future.

Why... are our fathers
no longer friends?

The wolf
fell in love with a sheep.

For your mother
he betrayed his true family.

Even his own son.

Since then he has been poisoning himself
with animal blood.

You are young, you are still coming
get through with it for a while.

But soon
that won't be enough anymore.

Then you want
the blood of a human being.

And then you need our help.

Through human blood
you will age more slowly.

And as soon as your father realizes
that your bloodlust is still there,

he will kill you.

Your mother and your sister
are not like you.

It has been around for over a hundred years
no more women of our kind.

Without us you are alone.

You have to decide.

I will never kill anyone.

Never.

Join my house...

or die in yours.

(Kai, Polish) A few days later

there was an accident
with a grenade from the World War.

Adrian was seriously injured.

There was blood everywhere.

After the others
carried him away,

I tried his blood.

But Maggie and my father
have seen me.

Then wanted me
stab my father.

In the last
Moments later, Maggie shot him.

(Buzz)
Maggie killed your father?

No.

He survived.

But it didn't even come
an ambulance.

Roland's father was the village policeman

and had it
swept under the table again.

As if it never happened...

That same evening,
my sister threatened

to shoot my parents if they
don't take me to a doctor.

He couldn't help me
but I got a dog.

The next few years
Maggie protected me.

My father
didn't say a word to me anymore.

My mother was just me

like a ghost
in a human shell.

And the carpenter
never stopped watching me.

I have ... myself
continued to secretly feed on animal blood.

But in the summer of '97
everything became different...

(stinging sound)

(Dog growls and barks loudly)

Leave me alone!

I don't want anything with you
have to do!

My father wants to talk to you.

(Dog barks)

(Father)
Shut your dog up.

Otherwise I'll do it.

(Dog barks)

No, Benni!

(dog whines)

Go home.

(Father) Come on.

We are threatened with extinction.

Our rare gene only becomes
transmitted to the male gender.

There are no women
our kind more.

You are a wolf, your sister
and your mother are sheep.

They can't help you.
Me, yes.

Your father and I used to
the dead are hidden here.

Today we use this basement
only rarely, but...

...many are still down there.

We want them little by little
make disappear,

but that is not that easy.

[Kai moans]

[moans, coughs]

You can control your fate
Don't escape, Kai.

You have stomach cramps from the animal blood.

Soon you will
kill a person.

And when the time comes, you will

throw the leftovers into this cellar,
do you understand me?

For everyone but us,
this is a meaningless book.

On page 123
there is a nameless poem.

If you don't know the background,
that will

the message remains hidden,
but you will understand.

It is our set of rules that you adhere to
must hold you without exception.

Your survival depends on it.

For the trap door.

Hide him like that,
that no one can find him.

(Breathes deeply through his nose)

You'll soon be of age.
My house is open to you.

All you have to do
is yours to leave.

I'm not like you.

You're right.

You are special, Kai.

Your father's blood
is purer than mine.

It's you...

what we call “strongblood.”

We are getting weaker and weaker.

But maybe you can help us,

a female offspring
to procreate.

You can save our species.

If you succeed,
you will live like a king.

I have to tell you something.

But not here.

I'll wait for you in the barn.

What I'm telling you now has to last forever
remain a secret between us.

It may be difficult to understand
and not easy to explain either...

But...

(Horn)

We have to go to the meeting.
We talk about this later.

(Quiet whispers in the room)

Edith Trebur.

Don't do that Edith.

We have no choice.

You need to
face the truth.

This country is no longer worth anything.

They are the last
who haven't sold yet

and this is the last offer,
that I can do.

I have said everything,
All questions answered.

I hereby hand over
once again to one of you.

If you don't trust me,
trust him. Stojan Demko.

(Breathes heavily)

As you all know,

we have our country
already sold to Mr. Jessen.

And for a good reason.

(Maggie) Maybe Adrian's father did
but right.

(Arthur) Stojan is a traitor.

Jessen uses
the desperation of the farmers

and forces them
for sale below value.

Stojan ist nur Jessen's henchman.
-He just wants to help people.

Stojan Demko doesn't help anyone
except yourself.

I don't want to hear that name anymore.
No sale.

Who will run the farm in the next few years?

We can do it.

When Maggie is free,
she will help further.

(Roland)
You didn't tell them?

(Arthur) Was?
-Maggie and I are moving to Berlin.

But only until my probationary period is over.

But Maggie never came back.
Not even to help on the farm.

And then in July
it was hot and dry.

Nobody expected

what problems some rain
would take place in the Oderbergen.

(stinging sound)
[Kai groans in pain]

(door opens)

(alarm siren sounds)

Large parts of southern Poland
and the Czech Republic are flooded

and thousands of people homeless.

The Polish city of Opel

is largely flooded
and reported fatalities.

Numerous people
are still missing.

The flood reached yesterday
the Oderbruch.

Kai?

More heavy rains
in Czech Republic

caused
a second wave of floods,

which is spreading inexorably.

(Alarm siren continues to sound)

Where's Mama?

Is sleeping.

Sorry, I had to
I've been working a lot over the last few weeks.

We came here,
to help with the dike.

Close stoppers, fill sandbags...

The levels continue to rise.

Are you coming with me?

(mess of voices from the helpers)

When do you come back?

But you love him
but not!

I'm pregnant.

Let him.

(Alarm siren continues to sound)

(stinging sound)

[Screams loudly]

(heartbeat gets louder)

Kai?
(Minna) Kai was only here for a short time.

(TV) ...we receive pictures,
which confirm

that another section of dike
broke at Krewlow.

Emergency measures...

Nature takes revenge on us.

Mummy? I have to find Kai.

He's with Benni
went into the forest.

Kai?

Kai?

Kai!

(heartbeat gets louder)

Kai!

You are a monster!

(woman in the distance)
Hurry up Rainer.

The water keeps rising.
We have to go.

(Rainer) Hurry up Elfriede.
Do you already have the photo albums?

(Elfriede) No, not yet.
One last course.

Hello? Are you doing well?

The dike is broken.

We can take you with us.

Come on, lend a hand,
then we'll leave.

Just a few more belongings.

I'm Rainer Seidel. My wife
and I have lived here forever.

But I have you here
never seen.

Please excuse me, may I...
can I give this to you?

(stinging sound)

What are you doing?

(heartbeat races)

(Kai, Polish)
I hid myself.

Even in front of the carpenter
and his father.

But... I have me
adhered to the rules in the book.

And killed many people.

I've tried everything,
to get rid of the blood.

Svetlana?

Where is she?

Can you
still remember the day,

when you found me?

(husband and wife moan)

(moans get louder)

(moan subsides)

(Svetlana laughs and sighs)

Some junkie... got himself
settled back in the hut.

Vadim saw someone.

Is that what you're thinking about now?

Sorry,
I just thought of it.

We have for ages
sex outside of bed again

and you think about your to-do list.

Your to-do list.

I've told you so many times.

I take care of it.

(Svetlana) You have to open the windows
and board up doors properly

or finally tear the thing down.

I find it scary to know

out there
a junkie sits in the hut.

I'm often alone here too.

(Quiet humming)

(engine noise)

(Kai) Put that back.

Who are you?

Where did you get that?

You gave it to me.

Please go.

You can't live like that.

My door is open to you.

(Buzz)
He is far too young for his age.

Simply unbelievable.
That makes no sense.

Maybe he isn't.
But his son or something...

No idea.

Perhaps. At least I can do it
don't just chase it away. He needs...

(knock on the door)

Come in.

I beg you.
Don't ask him questions.

He'll talk on his own at some point.
Or not.

I do not want,
that he runs away again.

(Kai) I'm addicted.

And there is something
what I need help with.

Of human blood again
Getting rid of it was very painful.

(Strangle)

But I managed
thanks to you and Svetlana.

(Kai) Can I ask you something?

(Buzz) Klar.

Do you have work for me?

(Conversation in Polish)

(alarm signal)

(Polish) Finally lunch break.

(voices move away)

Are you coming?

Go on.

I still have to finish something
before the vacation. It's getting late.

See you later.

You've been here for so long now,
but you never talk.

Everything I know about you
is from Marcin's stories.

He means,
you were his best friend.

He often asked himself
what happened to you.

At some point you have to start
to talk to us. OK?

Listen, I don't believe you
that you are Kai.

But Marcin believes you.
And I like you.

No matter who you are,
we have to be honest with each other.

[screams, groans]

(whistle getting louder)

(heartbeat gets louder)

Where is Svetlana?

Where is Svetlana?

I did not want that.

It was an accident.
-Svetlana?

Svetlana?

Svetlana!

Svetlana.

(crying)

No!

I lost control.

I wasn't myself. I thought,
I would have it under control.

(rattling)

And then?

(flies buzz)

(Ominous music swells)
