What time is it?

We must hurry, the light will turn off.

I hate this light.

Already?

Massage my shoulders a little, I'm full of knots.

Be serious.

It's almost ten years since you've seen him.

Go.

Dad.

Dad.

Th�odore!

Huh? What's that?

It's me, F�lix.

Who's that?

F�lix, your son.

You don't recognize me?

Yes, I recognize you.

Caroline told me that we should talk...

before you go.

Go? Go where? I'm at home.

You don't understand. That's not what I mean.

Is someone coming to get me?

No, Dad, nobody is coming to get you.

Why are you calling me "Dad"?

It's me, F�lix.

Who's that?

F�lix Saint-Francois, your son.

My son...

Malka.

Could you stop that?

I like the sound it makes.

You are always late for the morning prayer.

Look, my love. Tell me what you think.

What are you doing?

You promised me.

Since when do you break your promises?

You know I like this music.

That's not a good reason.

Put away this record!

Why are you trying to humiliate us even further?

You know very well that it is unworthy of you.

Turn off this music.

And Elisheva is not to listen to these distortions.

Stop acting like a child!

I know you're not dead. I can see your chest moving.

Impossible, I'm holding my breath.

Six, seven thousand. It depended on the rug.

You pulled the rugs out through the window?

Twenty-foot long rugs? By yourself?

I stole them by myself and I sold them by myself.

Like a big boy!

What did you think I was doing to survive all this time?

And the money I gave you, it wasn't enough?

Not really, no. I have expensive tastes.

How much did you sell them for?

You know he paid around 20 000 for them?

I would have thought less than that. If I had known!

Who did you sell them to?

On Parc, not far from Villeneuve.

The old lady paid cash.

Cash!

And Dad never realized?

Did you ever see Dad vacuum?

Never!

So, what are you going to do with your half?

Same thing as always.

Which is?

Nothing!

You have no plans?

Look, Caro, you know me. My plan is to spend 35 000 dollars a year.

That's what I inherited, that's what I'm going to spend.

You didn't inherit, may I remind you. I inherited.

But if you want me to give you more, find yourself a project.

What's your project?

Finish this bottle and then open another.

Do you know what time it is?

I asked you a question.

I'm coming. Give me a minute.

I hate it when you shut yourself away like this.

Come on, let's go, it's Sabbath!

Ready?

Come on, let's go.

Did you see all the colours?

This isn't right. Let's go put it back in its place.

You are sad.

My name is Meira.

Pleased to meet you, Meira.

I like that one.

And that one?

That one... is difficult to explain, it's a kind of...

I have to go.

Is something wrong?

No.

You know you can tell me anything.

I know.

You will have more children, you'll see.

But I don't want more children.

You can't say that. You must have more...

It's our duty.

Have you spoken of this to the Rabbi?

Answer me. What is this?

Where will these mysteries end?

Pay attention to what you're doing.

What would you do without us?

You knew very well it would get back to me.

Why confide in Suri, rather than in me...

your husband?

What do you want?

What are you waiting for from me?

I do what I have to do, and I do my best.

You think it's easy for me to have to always justify your behavior?

And Elisheva...

Think about the shame that will come upon her...

if you continue to act this way.

Is that really what you want?

To wreck our lives, mine, yours...

... our daughter's.

You know very well that I don't wish to wreck anyone's life.

When will you finally understand that this is our life?

Hi.

Hi.

Come in.

I brought you a little gift.

Thanks.

Can I?

Would it be possible to come in and listen to some music?

Of course, come upstairs.

He hated me to death.

And then, he died.

I'm sure he didn't hate you.

Well, he didn't smile at me often.

Why don't you have any children?

Because I'm single.

Why are you single?

That's just the way it is.

There are lots of single people.

With us it's the opposite.

We have six, ten, sometimes fourteen children.

Fourteen!

What's it like to be single?

It's peaceful.

But it's hard sometimes.

Often, even.

Fourteen kids... wow.

I'd like to know what it's like. To be single.

I mean like other people...

You want to know what it's like to be like other people?

Get up. Come!

You look good.

Why don't you look me in the eyes?

I'm not allowed to look men in the eyes.

Why?

Excuse me.

Wait for me. I'll be back.

OK.

I'll go turn up the heat.

Have a seat.

It smells good in here.

That's true.

It smells good.

I think it's you that smells good.

Table tennis?

Yes.

How old were you when you started drawing?

When I was young I liked to draw.

But then one day, I couldn't.

When I became pregnant, I started again.

Why do you draw?

And you, why Venice?

No reason.

Why a cat?

Why not?

Now that I think of it, I never drew animals.

Oh no, why?

Why not?

I began by drawing fruits...

furniture, lamps, things like that.

- Still lifes? - What?

Hello? Is somebody there? F�lix, is that you?

It's my sister. Caro!

- What are you doing here? - I'm playing table tennis.

- With whom? - You, who are you with?

- Honestly? - You don't introduce me?

Are you kidding? I've been with your sister for seven years.

Seven years...

Alain!

- Who's she? - A friend.

Hello!

Wait!

I don't know what to say. It's my sister, I couldn't have known.

No, no, I'm not playing with you.

You know that's not true.

I'm sorry. I'm truly sorry.

I don't know what you're up to and believe me, I'd rather not know.

Who told you there was something going on?

I will come join you in Brooklyn when I decide to do so.

It will give you time to think.

Your cousin hates me.

You'll see what it's like to be deprived of the little one.

Out of the question. She's coming with me.

She's staying here, I said.

And at any rate, she doesn't have a passport.

Who is this man?

Who is this man?

How was the sunset? It is beautiful at this time of year.

It is not too cold up there?

I'm a little chilly but it's OK.

Children arrive soon. There are so many things to do, it'll warm you

How long will you be gone for?

I don't know.

I'm going to need your signature, if you want part of the sale of the house.

How much of the 35 000 do you have left?

I don't know. I didn't count it.

Do you remember when Mom went on vacation in Costa Rica?

Do you know why she stayed an extra two weeks?

No, why?

She had a lover.

No...

I'm telling you.

Why are you telling me this?

I don't know. I thought you'd be interested.

The woman you're seeing, she's married? She has children?

And? What's the difference?

I think Mom was looking for something a little exotic, for a change.

She found her life with Dad too dull.

You knew that before she got sick, she wanted to get a divorce.

It wasn't easy.

You're not listening to me?

Yeah, I'm listening.

Stop worrying, I'll be fine.

Let's go?

Well, yes.

I'm scared.

Wow!

Amazing.

Walk around a little, to see.

It's tight.

They'll fit. You have to break them in.

Hey, did you see that guy dancing?

Well, I was not that surprised. To me, he doesn't dance so well.

He's as bad as can be... and the girl?

Well, for us, no... He can't compete with us.

And you're a good dancer?

Well, sometimes, yes...

So, you have to teach him how to dance, because he's a terrible dancer!

He has two left feet...

These movements are not right...

He dances like a vacuum cleaner, like we say in Spanish.

I wish this night would never end.

But I have to go.

Would you like tea?

No. It's late.

Are you sure?

Thank you again for looking after her.

Do you have any news of Malka?

The world is a cruel place my friend.

What are you doing today?

I'll get a gift for Elisheva.

You should go on Lee Avenue. The shops are great for children.

And take your time...

Enjoy the absence of your husband, until things fall into place.

If I see you near her one more time...

You have no right to come here.

Go.

We mustn't forget the cardboard for the children either.

We were short last time.

If only I can remember everything, the messiah will come.

So, Malka. Do you have to go to the grocery store?

I don't know where I am anymore...

and I no longer have the same feelings I once did during Sabbath.

Why don't you play dead anymore to tease me?

Who told you I'm not already dead, here in this life I lead?

You have to pull yourself together.

I would of course like to transform every obstacle...

by means of elevation and supreme passion.

Even in our greatness and our smallness...

there are difficult paths we must take...

to transform evil into good.

And these difficulties, even the most terrible...

only give more value to our commitment.

My son...

I no longer have all my wits about me...

and I am going to die soon.

I am writing to apologize to you before it is too late.

I am sorry for having bullied you,

for having tried to force you...

into the shackles of the family.

I am sorry that we became lost to one another.

I know that you never felt at ease in our family.

You were apart from us,

and you always went your own way.

I would have liked to hold onto you,

but I didn't know how.

I was not equal to the task.

I ask for your pardon.

Never forget that the blood that runs in your veins...

is also the blood of my love.

Your father, Th�odore Saint-Fran�ois.

She's beautiful in your arms.

Yes, she is.

She looks like you.

I'm late.

Goodbye.

Where will we go?

We'll visit this. And we'll go there, it's beautiful.

We'll find a place.

I'm sorry, my love. Forgive me.
