Vilnius - Lithuania

She's too lazy to help out with the housekeeping here!

Dad, they'll turn her into a stripper! - Be quiet when your father is talking!

Excuses! Nothing but excuses!

l want to get out of here. - Well, what are you waiting for then?

Shouldn't we make sure we'll be OK there?

Be OK there? lt can't get much worse than this.

They'll turn you into prostitutes. - How do you know?

Wait one more day. Just one more day.

Maybe l could go and talk to that journalist again.

Just one more day, OK?

OK.

l signed. l'll be out of here tomorrow.

You'll be sold. How can you be so stupid?

You'll become a whore! A slut!

Don't you care about anything anymore? ls nothing important anymore?

You'll become a whore, a prostitute!

Mum! This isn't what you think. Honestly!

The police came to our house. - The police?

They had arrested a man

who was rounding up girls in Vilnius to go to Belgium and Holland.

And?

Two days after you left Vilnius,

they found Kasandra. - Kasia?

How is Kasia? - She was dead.

The bastards first raped her and then beat her to death.

And then they threw her in a skip at the cemetery. Like some dead dog.

Did you have to do this? - What? The bitch is nuts!

She almost fuckin' bit my dick off!

Have you gone completely mad? Look at her!

l should have smashed her fuckin' skull in!

Get out of here! - Come again?

Get the fuck out of here! - l don't take orders from you, tosser!

Home sweet home.

..., two, three. Christ, you weigh a ton!

l can't see Ray's car.

l'd at least expected him to be waitin' for me with a big bunch of flowers.

Where's Ray? lsn't he comin' to the party?

lsn't he glad l'm back or what?

And what are you going to do? - Who, me ?

l'm gonna sit in the office with you. All day, every day.

Nothin' is gonna change.

We get ourselves some new girls and it's back to business as usual.

Come on, let's get out of here.

Danny.

There's not a lot left, is there? No more than a small pile.

And John was a big guy, wasn't he?

He always thought he'd live to be a hundred.

lt can happen just like that.

Just look at us.

What am l supposed to do with you?

Well, where's your big mouth now?

What did you think on the way here?

Gotta go hand my keys over to that limp-legged bastard?

And go find myself another job?

Well, l'm not gonna give you the satisfaction.

What d'you mean?

We've gotta stick together, Ray.

l can't do it on my own.

How d'you picture that then?

What?

Well ...

Listen.

Dad gave you fifteen percent. Well, l'll give you twenty.

Twenty? - Yeah.

And you should consider yourself lucky,

'cause no one else'd want an arsehole like you!

We should be pals again, like in the old days.

Just one more thing.

That you realise that l couldn't bear to have to look at Kalinka's mug every day.

We'll kick her out.

We should've done that a long time ago.

Then l wouldn't have been sittin' here like this.

l'm worried ... - Well ...

What? - Vincent can't stand you.

He thinks you can't be trusted. - He'd better watch out.

l've seen and heard a lot! - And lined your pockets a lot.

No more than anyone else!

As if nothing ever disappeared into your pockets.

You don't know that, chum!

lf he chucks you out on your arse, what are you gonna do? Talk to the cops?

What d'you mean by that?

What's this all about anyway?

Now that John's not around anymore, you don't know which side is up, eh?

Are you enjoying this?

Daria ...

Daria, come downstairs. There's only five of us tonight!

Four, 'cause l'm not doing it anymore.

Aren't you in enough trouble? - Yeah.

They murdered my best friend!

You don't know that. Kalinka ...

What does Kalinka know about it? She wasn't there, was she?

Come on, Daria.

Well?

Stupid cow!

Watch your language!

Yeah, sure, whatever.

You fuckin' bastard!

Bloody hell.

Ray's gotta be wasted.

Couldn't you just chuck him out?

No, Jan.

Either you do it, or you look for someone else to do it.

Someone who can keep their trap shut.

Why don't you do it yourself?

He was here yesterday afternoon.

l could have blown him away just like that.

But then what?

Look at me. He'd still be lyin' here on the floor.

l don't even feel when l've gotta have a crap anymore.

lf l forget my nappy, it runs down the legs of my trousers into my shoes.

Don't you know any Albanians? - Vincent, for God's sake!

You're nuts.

How much are you prepared to pay? - Twenty-five thousand.

And you become the new boss at the 69. You get fifteen percent. Cash in hand.

And what happens to Eddy?

We'll worry about that later.

First, Ray snuffs it.

Yeah. Ray?

lt's me.

Yeah.

We've gotta talk.

Why don't we just quit? Vincent can stick the 69!

We can start a new club, the three of us.

Where you can have a good meal, too. A nice steak,

watch the girls strip, then ... - Customers come to fuck.

Not to stuff their faces.

Heard anything from Vincent lately?

What does he plan on doing? - He wants to carry on.

What d'you mean, 'carry on'? - Well, carry on with the 69.

Did he say anything about me? - Yeah, that he doesn't trust you.

Fuckin' hell!

We need new girls, fast. There'll only be Kalinka left.

Kalinka's gone. - What d'you mean, 'gone'?

Gone. l kicked her out.

There was no other way.

'Cause of Vincent, right.

ls this gonna lead to any trouble? - Why?

She's been here right from the beginning. lf she opens her mouth ...

Did you give her some money? - 1 ,250 Euro.

That's not much, is it?

You've made a right bloody mess.

When was the last time you paid the brewery?

Cash in hand or officially? - Let's start with 'officially'.

That's a while ago now.

Does Ray know about this?

He knows we buy the odd barrel under the counter.

'The odd barrel'?

And how do you keep the takings separate? How can we check it?

lf Vincent finds out about this, he'll go nuts!

Mark.

You wouldn't happen to know where Kalinka is?

Staying at Esther's for a few days.

How d'you know?

l dropped her off there yesterday with her suitcase. Want some?

lt's gee-gee.

Was she angry? - What d'you think? She was furious!

She's not gonna do anythin' stupid, is she?

Vincent.

How d'you get down here?

With your ...

The cab driver carried me down the stairs. On his back.

People do the strangest things for a few Euros, Eddy.

But l don't need to tell you that, do l?

How are things around here?

We haven't got enough girls.

Madam there won't work anymore. She doesn't feel like it!

'She doesn't feel like it'?

Who's the boss, here? These bitches or you?

Yeah, well ...

Slap her around a bit.

That'll soon make her change her mind.

That's just it. That doesn't work anymore with her!

Poor you ...

A customer's never come back for her a second time.

Can't do a thing with her.

Then kick her out. We're not running a hotel!

ls that Kalinka still around? - No. Ray kicked her out, remember?

Right ... And where is she now?

Dunno.

Find out for me then.

What are you doing here? - l didn't know you two were so close!

They're a bit worried at the 69.

Oh ... And why's that?

Jan, get out of here. - Keep out of it, you!

You idiot, she'll suffocate! - Shut your trap!

Jan, let her bloody go!

Bye, darlin'.

l don't wanna know.

Yeah, get lost, pal.

This doesn't add up, pal.

Vincent. - Hi Ray.

l've just about had it with sir here.

l've given him plenty of warning. Haven't l?

Hey, don't look at me.

Buying stuff under the counter is normal. Everyone does it.

But the fact that we can't check anything anymore isn't on, Eddy.

Guys, how long've we worked together? - That's just it!

Don't you trust me?

Ray, is he pissin' us around?

Have l got 'retard' written on my forehead?

Or has he?

How much did you skim off, Eddy?

Did you really think you could get away with it?

Well, what've you got to say for yourself, Mr Big Mouth?

Cat got your tongue? Now you're ...

lt was him or me.

He wanted to have me bumped off, the bastard.

Call Danny. Get rid of him.

And it happened with your bat, remember.

Hey! Just a minute, you!

Stop! Police!

Shit.

Stand him up.

Gonna make a fool of yourself again? - Who knows.

Haven't learned your lesson yet? - Wait 'n see.

Take him with you!

You've got nothin' on me, you loser. Not a sausage!

Christ.

Police! Hands up! Go, go!

What's in the boot?

l don't know anymore ...

Hello, Jan.

What are you doing here? - What were you planning on doing?

Are we gonna act wet, or what?

We won't be seeing Ray again soon! Trust me.

And the same goes for Vincent.

D'you really think you'll find any money? - ls it gone already?

One week later

Where were you last night?

Daria, l'm leaving.

Don't be angry.

Jan's found me an apartment. Nothing big, but it's clean.

And l can have clients there, too.

Fine.

We can't sit here forever.

No ...

What are you going to do?

l want to go home.

l understand. - But l haven't got any money.

Let's go back together.

No.

l'm staying here.

l've got a better life here than in Lithuania.

Really?

Here. That's enough for the plane to Lithuania. And for the taxi.

No, l don't want it. - Daria, take it.

No. l know what you had to do for it. - Come on now.

Here.

Go home.

l don't know what to say ... - Me neither.

Take care.

See you later, maybe.

Thanks. For the money. - Forget it.

All the best ...

Vilnius - Lithuania

You've come back?

Hello, Mum. - Daria!

Daria!

Hello, lvan. - You were going to write.

Sorry.

l've brought you a present.

Thanks.

Empty your plate! Come back to the table!

Come back here, damn it! Expect us to keep it till later?

You can forget that!

What's going on? Everyone does just as they please!

Shouldn't we make sure we'll be OKthere?

We're not signing this without knowing what it says.

There's obviously something wrong.

You signed?

You'll be sold.

How can you be so stupid?

ls nothing important anymore?

Don't you want to understand? You'll become a whore, a prostitute.
