It is told, as it actually happened
Told by the one, that actually existed

The one who stayed with us,
when departing

Where are you?

KaUa ?

Where are you?

I had a dream

which was not all a dream.

The bright sun was extinguished,

and the stars did wander
dark/ing in the eternal space.

And men forgot their passions,
in dread of their desolation.

And all hearts were chi//ed into
a selfish prayer for light!

Look, over there

It's scary.

I'll take a picture.

Want a drink?

Watch out! Water!

Welcome

Ticket, please

Enjoy

Enjoy

Thank you

It's been many years,

yet I still recall
those days that meant

both the beginning and
the end of my existence.

THE ANGELS' MELANCHOLIA

Maybe, why not

Go? Now?

No.

She's waving to you

Hi, yes, I'm hanging out.

What?

Lean onto both arms

notch and bead in one line,

steady now

Your turn!

OKaY

Bye...Bianca, let him shoot
on his own. Come on!

Your fortune, your fortune,
for a few pennies!

Hey, over there.

Cuba Libre, please

Are VOu good?

...and a Prosecco, please.

I'm Brauth, and you?

Melanie

Loneliness has many names

Bianca and Melanie, okay?

To Bianca, then!

Let's hit the road.

Hey...not all is easy
as shooting cans.

Suddenly something may occur,
what never you thought life would bare...

Come on, let's go

Hi there.

- Good evening, Brauth.
- Hi, Cindy.

A Vodka Tonic, a Cuba Libre,
and an orange juice for her.

What about you?
Cuba Libre as well?

I'm going back in.

After you.

My life had changed,

Not so much my life,

as my perception.

I sensed a kind of inner emptiness.

I could not imagine anything

able to fill this emotional void.

Candlelight

Orange juice?

Vodka Tonic

Thanks

- Cuba Libre
- Thanks

Cheers

To your health

I sensed the time had come.

I strongly need to convince
them of their gender.

I'll cut a swath through that.

Soon we'll return there,

where everything took place.

I was sure the place

would mean fulfillment,
and fate to me.

What's going on?

This place seems familiar

What a wonderful sight

like the unholy book
in our library

You amaze me with
your know/edge

Surely it's a trick of the mind

But look at the horizon

What a sight

it is...

it must be an illusion

such a mysterious shape

People like you, not me?

Like suggesting this place
is not for humans.

What if it's true ?

What then?

The shapes disappear

A strange wind

Can you hear that...

Stop the car!

...z'he moaning, very sinister.

Do you think it's the reflection
of an existing place?

It's so bizarre.
What a spawn of madness.

Still I had a faint thought
of what to expect.

Our lives would never be
the same again.

We'll always live in fear.

Let go.

Give it to me

Two more guests will join us here,

while in this house you adhere...

They may be love or anguish,

embrace them both and cherish...

Up, and to the right.

To the right, again.

Sleeping time,

for everybody, come on!

Never a happy fart from a sad arse

Another night has descended upon us,

down here on our old Mother Earth.

Again darkness has fallen,

on this abyss full of pain.

On that morning I preferred solitude
and silence to my new found friends.

I enjoyed the atmosphere
of the new day rising.

So here I was once again,

where everything seemed familiar

and yez', everything was different.

Altered by the know/edge

of everything ahead of us.

Will he come?

Pleasant night, I hope

Life means, to carry confidence in your heart
in times of battle and hardship.

It means never to give up hope

and to be strong in times of sorrow.

Ladies and gentlemen,
your meal is ready.

Hold it, Melanie

No, thanks

What now?

Nature is so wonderful

and the pleasures it grants us.

Some clothes.

We are constantly reminded of Empedoc/es's
vision of a golden age

But among men twas sacri/ege
most vile

To reave of life

and eat the goodly limbs

I'd be happy for permission to enter.

I come...

accompanied.

I knew you were longing for it.

No, thanks

I picked up some nice charms

for you, on the way

Clarissa, I'm up here!

Nice and easy

My girl

Ourfriend Heinrich,
a traveler and great artist.

For the pretty girl

To confidence!

By then I realized,

I was forgetting my sorrow and my fears,

and began to sense some kind of tension

of what was about to happen.

Still thinking of depopulation?

Sflence

and peace

Time flies

Never a dick so stiff,

never such a hardened heart,

as after a decent meal.

The pleasures of drunkness,

of gluttony

of Iasciviousness!

...and of cruelty.

Amen.

Hey, listen, we know nothing
about you, or Katze,

and who's the girl over there?

That doesn't matter at all!

Nobody's interested in us,

and we don't care about others.

Nobody is going to miss us,

we don't even exist

And that includes you!

Fuck you

But what do you do
in life, what are you up to?

Go ahead

Melanie

What's up?

What's your name?

Bianca

What?

Bianca

How old are you?

I'm sixteen.

And who are you?

A dead man in this life

A messenger

from another world

A traveler

An artist

And where did they find you?

Melanie got me into this.

I should be home by now

I'm in big trouble now.

And what about you?

What do you do?

What are your dreams,
expectations, your faith?

Yeah, yeah, I get the point.

Thou doth good, thou Iovest all humans,

thou hadst plans for a haimish future,

and hadst faith in divine paradise.

I see, you've got your life together,

when are you bearing those brats?

There is no life after this life.

Ihope

I couldn't bear it

She doesn't like men

yet she needs them.

An accident?

She can't even shit anymore?

She needs to go sometimes,

but not often.

Please stop

Goon

Come!

Usually, Sundays are for our inspiration.

Many weird stories are told
about these surroundings.

There's all sorts of
mind-boggling myths and legends.

Cursed places, where ghosts dwindle.

Ghouls sleep here.

Spirits of the forest haunt this place.

A three-legged hare has been found
at the Devil's Hole...

The Headless Horseman and the Wild Horde,
the people here believe in them.

Beware of the Steel Mill Devil.

Stay away from the Fog Cave.

Beware of the Goblin of Fire Gold Mountain,
the creature that roams these slopes.

What's that sweet smell?

There's an animal destruction plant nearby.

All the animal cadavers of the surrounding
cities are incinerated up there.

The smoke carries this burning odour
over the land.

Not many people live here.

This plant is the largest employer
around here,

most men work there on weekdays,

and during weekends they work the land,

They are simple people,

maybe illiterate,

and brute.

Do you really want to go there?

We're heading for a place we've been
before, looking for introspection.

I think I'll stay here on my own.

See you tonight.

Suit yourself.

Will you find your way back?

In this season, night falls quickly,

so you better not...

We should get going,

but she stays here!

It's getting late!

What?

It's getting late!

Everything I need is right here.

If you have to go, then leave.

What's wrong with him?

He's not like us,

and he doesn't have much time left.

Yet again I couldn't understand Brauth

and I knew, that

deep in his heart, he could never
really understand me, either.

Due to his erratic behavior

and his doing,

we went separate ways, back then.
At /east for the time being.

My way nevertheless, was irrefutable.

The former child has transformed into a woman.

Is he here?

Was it bad?

Yes, it was.

But not as bad as back then.

Stay away!

Let me, o world, o let me be!

Lure me not with what love giveth,

Make this heart of mine content
with its own pleasure, its own grief!

What grieves me, I know it not,

It is some unheard-of thorn;

Yet through my tears I will see
the warming sunlight come the morn.

Ofz' when I forget myself

A savory pleasure lifts my gloom,

'tis then I feel from deep within
my infirm spirit at once renewed.

- Are you hurt?
- Stay away!

Let me, o world, o let me be!

Lure me not with what love giveth,

Make this heart of mine content

with its own pleasure, its own grief!

Why hesitate?

Enter the temple of lust

The Lord is my shepherd

For His name's sake

Even though I walk through the valley
of the shadow of death,

I fear no evil,

for Thou art with me.

Still here?

In the presence!

My life

In the House of the Lord,

He restoreth my soul

Stay!

DOHT go!

Don't go there, no!

No, no, don't!

No!

Years passed by

Morn came and went

and came

and brought no light of day

Do you fear death?

At the edge of the forest,
listening to the cuckoo,

I can spend many a long afternoon
lying in the grass.

The cuckoo seems to lull
the valley into sleep

With the peaceful repetitiousness
of his lament.

I feel well there,
and my worst vexation,

that of conforming to the grotesque
demands of society,

finally cannot make war
upon me there,

Where I enjoy myself
in my own way.

And if those cultivated people
only knew

how beautifully poets waste
their time,

in the end they would be jealous
of me.

What's going on out there?

Never been out much, have you?

Brauth and I have spent
many years here.

There's a strange atmosphere hereabout,

but we've become one with it.

Time to go to sleep

sleep tight, baby.

My head aches

Shut up, bitch!

What will become of us, if the person you're
asking for help is in need of help himself?

Fantasies will be stimulated,
carnal desires will be aroused

More dead than alive,
they feel God has forsaken them

The soul feels more pain than pleasure

but the soul ascends to a higher level

Heinrich...

You spoke such beautiful words,

of the heart and soul

Heinrich...

Human philosophy, my dear child,

is not about consoling the weak,

Its sole purpose is to counteract the
free spirit to eliminate any prejudice.

Be good, girl,

I love you all very much.

One finds beauty everywhere.

He only gets philosophical,
to betray people,

it's the garment of falseness

All you require is the garment
of virtue, not virtue itself.

And with this falseness,
opens the door to new infamity.

It brings you good fortune.

Greetings from your friend Heinrich.

Heinrich is a good man, I can feel it.

Dear Heinrich has been our problem child,

for a long time

He is one from the island of bliss,

his last work of art will be himself.

Heinrich is definitely a good man,

his last deed was a good deed.

Take this!

- I need to go to the bathroom.
- Shut up!

Eat. Go on, take it!

Come on. Take it now!

COITIG OH, COITIG OH, COITIG on

- Please.
- Damn it, shut up!

Come, come, come...

COITIG on, COITIG OH...

COITIG, COITIG, COITIG...

Now

Come...come!

- Please.
- Goddammit!

In a land where a cripple
has more rights than a proper person,

and you say you don't feel well?!

I'm sorry for what just happened

Come with me

Heinrich?

My girl,

don't be afraid,

the apocalypse offers a great spectacle.

The dead...

I've heard the dead,

the voice,

the voice of the dead...

A child

Bianca, wait here,

Hlcheckn.

What happened?

A hare.

A hare?

Go back to sleep

I fell' like...

I existed all by myself,

as if the world only existed
inside my imagination,

as if there was nothing but me.

Me...!

Me, damned till eternity

Satan!

Alone,

with my tormenting delusions

Alone,

with my ever demanding visions.

I'm cold

Your kiss is as poisonous
as a spider's bite.

Have you never been in love?

May the gods protect me
from these plagues.

Is there any worse burden on earth?

I go wherever I want to,
and I stay wherever I like.

And what about Katze?

Have you known him long?

Long time.

Pain takes hold of his soul
more than pleasure does,

says Heinrich.

Even with such a depraved mind,
Katze still has a heart of gold.

And Heinrich?

We've talked about him, not?

Heinrich is happy,

the aftervvorld, is like paradise to him.

He knows how to ingeniously
preserve old conditions,

well, that's all there's to it.

Doesn't he cope with life?

His life is art!

I'm so hot!

Pull up your skirt

Spread your legs

very slowly.

These are the final hours
I can spend with you.

Are those Heinrich's paintings on the wall?

His extreme art has never been recognized.
Now it's too late for him.

My body is all alone,

HO HGFVGS,

no heart, no brain, no blood

no breast, no stomach,

no intestines, no cunt.

My whole body is rotten,

only skin and bones from the
unorganized corpse remains,

no soul, no god, no devil,

no mere existence,

nothing around me,

I'm completely alone

I won't be able to die of a natural cause

I'm condemned to eternal life.

A horrible punishment

An ever dwelling creature.

Only my excrements give rne feeling
of security and unspeakable warmth.

Life would never be the same again

for parts of our lives,

the returning light could be
the end of the world

I cannot deny the unimaginable things
we've seen in these mountains.

These crazy mountains

Back then, Inoticed
this ma/ign effect,

that these surroundings,
and this house had on us.

Take it

Come kitty, have some!

Come on

come on, get on with it!

So!

And you too!

Melanie, watch out

So you can all have fun

Melanie, go

Go on!

To the door!

Melanie

Melanie

Get up

Come on

Keep moving

Don't go in there, Melanie.

Melanie!

We have to get out of here!

Get up, please

Melanie

Wake up!

Why should I care about the things
he has defied?

What he despises,

and what he has done?

He is human, and therefore weak.

He's a criminal,

and therefore unhappy.

I Pity him.

Katze?

Katze!

Return from eternity

I lived trough a loneliness

that was boundless.

Cut off from the rest of mankind

Time and space,

were both endless.

Distrust to all that is worldly,

and all of mankind, came upon me.

I was cursed, also, to endlessly
roam the cruel vastness,

moved, by a holy so/emnity.

A deep sense of celebration moved me,

an excess of beauty.

I spoke with the stars

unimaginable felicity.

Then, darkness,

demonica/ shadows grasp me.

I will never annihilate these feelings

Come on!

Stick it in!

Look here, Snow White
finds this all appalling!

Then puke,

go on throw up!

Put your shitty finger in your throat!

Get on with it

for God's sake, throw up!

I'll make you throw up!

Puke!

He's not a bad person, just different

I felt that I had gone too far
in my quarrel with Heinrich.

On the other hand,
I considered it a good sign,

to escape from the /ong/asting lethargy
due to my awakening temper.

At least, for one last time.

Be fervent in spirit

Rejoice in hope, amen.

How do you like that, girl?

It's that easy.

Soon I'll be a part of your life,
little girl

Soon I'll be a memorable part
of your biography,

in rankjust behind your parents,

who gave you life.

Run, girl!

Use the advantage

Three and a half minutes

And I sensed how desperation
made room for composure.

Composure...

that allowed me to do things

yet to be done.

All of the transient,
is a parable, only.

The insufficienz',
here, it grows to reality.

The undescribable,

here, it is done.

Woman, eternal,

beckons us on.

Brauth?

Please don't

Hush

We'll take him to the convent.

Once the individual that
wants to depart, is deceased,

the particles,
of which it is made up of,

will continue to have their place
in the universe

and will still serve its purpose,

as it did before in life.

...downe, down, down, down I fall,

downe, down, down, down I fall,

downe and arise I never shall.

Whether this human is alive or dead,

nothing changes in the universe

and nothing is ever /osz'.
