"People are close here." "Maybe closer than anywhere else." "They sleep in the same beds others slept in the day before." "They make love in the same beds others cried in the day before." "I think that is very beautiful." "We have to love each other." "People come and people go." "We are here and then we are not." "I am here." "I will come and I will go." "ROOM 304" "You're not wearing yours?" "My what?" " Your bracelet?" " No." " We promised to wear them all day." " Yes." "We made a solemn promise to wear them all day." "I know that." "Hi." "Where have you been all morning?" " I slept in the hotel last night." " Yes?" "We should all sleep in the hotel once in a while." "Don't you think so, Jonas?" "I don't know." "I mean really sleep in the hotel." "Lie in those beds that we  sell to strangers." "Lie in them, sleep in them and   wake up in them..." "See the light in the morning." "Yeah." "Tina, where are you?" "What happened?" "Fuck..." "You're there and I'm here." "Great." "Yes, we'll see each other somewhere, in some city." "Okay, see you soon." " That was Tina." " Where is she?" "Stuck in Bogota." "There's a strike." "My mother had a bad dream." "She called to make sure I was OK." "Your mother dreams a lot." "It was a dream about blood." "She was sure it was a sign." "Your mother thinks everything's a sign." "Let it go." "Sign, sign, sign." "My mother dreams mostly about sons-in-law." "One richer than the next." "My mother has those kinds of dreams too." "Lots of them, engineers, doctors, businessmen   always living in Europe or America." "Your wife..." "She's sick or something." " My wife?" " Yes, in the laundry room." "What's wrong?" "What's wrong?" "Tell me!" "Ne's here." " I have a reservation." " Yes." "I need to see your passport." "Thank you." "Help me." "With what?" "You have to help me." "You're the only one who can." "Leave him." "What?" "Leave him." "What are you saying?" "You have to tell him everything." "We'll go away." "And start all over again." "You can't just say that." "Just like that, out of the blue." "Why not?" " You can't." " But I..." "I have no one else but you." "Right?" "Kasper, you can't." "I have two girls with him." "I want to be alone." "I need to be alone for a bit." "If I were to tell you I was going to leave you  make an end to Kasper and Helene..." "If I were to tell you I was going to leave you   make an end to Kasper and Helene   what do you say then?" "Hi." "Guess who this is?" "Why haven't you come home?" "I can't sleep when I'm alone." "If I were to say that it doesn't matter if I come home or don't come home   what do you say then?" "Kasper..." "Answer me." "What am I supposed to answer?" "If I were to tell you I was going to leave you  make an end to Kasper and Helene, what do you say then?" "I'm going to hang up." "Okay?" "If I were to say  Kasper and Nina  instead of Kasper and Helene?" "Huh?" "Are you there?" "Are you there?" "You don't owe me anything." "You can do what you want." "Right?" "We can do what we want, the two of us." "That's the way it is." "Don't talk like that." "I'm going to take a sleeping pill." "I'm going to take a pill." "Either you're here when I wake up or you're not." "Sorry, am I disturbing you?" "Tina, where are you?" "Yes, we'll see each other somewhere, in some city." "I'm leaving for Palma in two hours." "Let's go for a drink." "Come on." "Please...." " No, Teresa, I really can't." " Please..." "Ne said he was sorry, but that's the way it is." "So, that's the way it is." "Ne has two children already." "Not with me." "I don't have any." "I've taken two days off." "I want to be by myself for a bit." " Here?" " What difference does it make?" "The weather is dreadful here." "I'm not going outside." "This is fine." "I'm fine." "Cheers." "Cheers." "What will you do?" "Either I stay with him or leave him, one or the other." "It's very simple." "Martin..." "Do you have a moment?" "Martin..." "I'm very happy to have you here at the hotel." "Really..." "You're a conscientious employee and very efficient   and you take all the bad shifts." "We know that." "Would you like to sit?" "But..." "I need to ask you to smile more." " Smile?" " Smile more than you do." "Be more open to the guests and... be happier to see them." "Because the reception is our face to the world, you might say." "Smiles and warmth." "Right?" " That's what we need out there." " Yes." " I'll make a note of it." " Good." " Hey, look at this." " What is that?" " Where did that come from?" " I didn't see anything." "What is it with him?" "Now should I know?" "Ne has no wife, no children..." "They say he washes his hands all the time, poor chump." "I had an uncle who washed his hands all the time." "Now, he's dead." "Ne was killed by a car." "You've told me about him a hundred times!" "Hi there." " Here you go." " Thanks." " I'd like to pay." " Yes." " Eighty crowns, please." " Keep the change." "Thank you very much." "Yes, what do you want, Martin?" "That smile you talked about..." "Yes?" "What exactly would you like?" "What exactly?" "The smile." "Now do you think I should smile?" "Just a smile." "Yes... but I'm not exactly sure what kind of smile you're looking for?" "Well..." "Like the way you smile when you see a person you like." "Or a person you'd like to get to know." "Like the way you smile at a person you're welcoming into your home." "Right?" "Martin, I think you know very well what I mean." "Don't you?" "I think we should say that when Pia is at the desk she does it her way   and when Henrik is at the desk he does it his way, and I do it my way." "Otherwise, there is probably another hotel that will hire me." " Sorry, am I disturbing you?" " That's alright, Martin." "Are we going to talk or just stand here and be quiet?" "Yes, no..." "I've found something." "Martin?" "You don't talk very much to other people, do you?" "Do you, Martin?" "No, maybe not." "Why not?" " Huh?" " I guess I have nothing to say." "Okay." "Well..." "I'm asking because I'm not sure about these things myself." "I'm not sure I can help you with that." "It was the Filipino girls  who found..." "Be careful." "This." "That is something, I have to say." "One should probably call the police." "Yes, we probably should." "Before anybody gets hurt." "Thanks for handing it over to me." " Right?" " Yes." "Hi, Mom!" "In Copenhagen." "Yes..." "Yes, it's nice, very nice." "Ne's good." "Gustavo's good, and Isabel..." "Everyone is good." "Yes, Mom, they're very good kids." "Very good father, yes." "Okay, I'll call you when I arrive, alright?" "Seriously, everything is okay." "Three in one." "White rum, gin and vodka." "Ne is here." "It can't be." "Ne's here." "I saw him." "I saw him in the parking lot." "Look at me." "Look at me!" "I'll tell them you're sick." "You go home." "You get it and bring it to me." "Now." "Do what I say." "Now." "Excuse me." "A question?" "A friend, old friend, my neighbor is here in hotel." "Ne said in my mobile, "I am here"   but he didn't say what room he's in." "Nebojša Kitanović is his name." "Ne is from Kosovo, like me." "Four, three, six." "Four hundred and thirty six." "Thank you." "Thank you so much." "Thank you." "New guy?" "New guy?" "Don't think, work!" "What are you thinking about?" "Don't think, work!" "Yes, work... work." "Give it to me." "Ne is here." "Finally." "We have two daughters." "I'm doing it for them and for you." "I'm doing it for all of us." "You will go to prison." "I know." "Soon, we can breathe again." "You'll be sitting in prison, and I'll be alone with the girls." "I can breathe in prison." "What about the three of us?" "Sorry." "Hello, Nebojša." "Do you remember me?" "Your neighbor." "Sit down!" "Look at me." "You can at least take a look at me." "I can't see well without my glasses." "I can't see, I can't sleep " " I can barely take a shit..." "Hand me my glasses." "They're right there." "Please, so I can look at you." "Hand them to me." "They're right there." "Sit down!" "I'm here buying..." "I'm in business..." "Equipment for hospitals." "They're good here." "They have nice things." "Tomorrow I'm going to Sweden." "The hospital in Lund is selling some equipment they don't use anymore." "I'm going to buy equipment..." "equipment that we can use." "Humanitarian, huh?" "That makes me happy." "Get up, come on!" "Come on." "Kneel down." "Kneel there!" "Kneel, you animal!" "The mother of my daughters, huh?" "You did it." " You raped her." " I'm sick." "Shame on you." "I'll kill you." "I'll kill you." "I'll kill you, you animal bastard." "Bastard, sit down!" "Sit!" "I'll kill you!" "Let the dogs fuck your mother!" "Uh, I'll fuck your mother's pussy!" "You pussy!" "Agim?" "I have no balls." "I didn't do it." "I'm weak." "Don't say that." "I can never face our girls again." "I can never face you again." "Don't say that." "Weak, weak..." "I'm weak..." "I have no honor." "It didn't happen." "This never happened." "Agim..." "It did not happen." "Ne never came to the hotel." "There are many other hotels." "You never saw him." "I was never here." "I left the gun up there someplace." "Gun?" "There is no gun." "Nothing happened then." "Nothing happened today." "We are not here, Agim." "We are not here." "Smile." "Smile the way you usually do." "Now do I usually smile?" "Innocently." "We have to wait on 337." "What now?" " I think he's in there crying." " Who?" "The boss." "Ne's sitting on the bed... crying." "You know why." "Because of the fire and all that." "Their house burned." "Ne got out and the wife, but the kid didn't." "No, their child died from a disease in the head, a baby disease." "That was last year." "That's not what I heard." "It's what I heard." "It was last year." "Some childhood disease." "Ne's crying." "We'll wait on 337." "Yes, you can have one piece each." "Petra..." "Listen, sweetie..." "She's little." "She doesn't understand, remember that." "Listen, Petra!" "Dad will be home soon and he'll deal with it, alright?" "Wait until Dad comes home." "You can have some cake." "One big piece each." "Good." "Yes, of course I have." "I've been wearing it all day." "Yes." "Yes, it's very pretty." "You made it so pretty." "Ok, bye, sweetheart." "See you." "You're not wearing yours?" "We made a solemn promise we would wear them all day." "Where have you been all morning?" "Leave him." "Leave him." "You have to tell him everything." "I need to be alone." "I need to be alone for a bit." "What if I were to say it doesn't matter if I come home  or don't come home." "What do you say then?" "Kasper..." "Either you're here when I wake up or you're not." "This is Kasper Birk's answering machine." "Please leave a message." "It's Nina." "I want to do it." "I feel like a void is opening up beneath me, but I want to do it." "So, you have to say it once." "To persuade me..." "And tempt me..." "You have to make me crazy..." "Come down and see me." "Or call, alright?" " Do you have some candy?" " No." "I don't have things like candy." "Maybe I could ask somebody." "Hey... come here." "Come over here." "Hi there." "What have you got there?" "Do you want lots of money?" "You're going to get some money." "Look at this." "Take a look at this." "There you go and there you go." "You're sweet." "So very sweet." "You know what?" "You can forget a lot of things, but..." "A soft cheek like that you don't forget." "Run along now and spend all that money." "Off you go." " What is he saying?" " Ne thinks we're done here." "We're not done." "If the high lord and master thinks we're done, then we're done." " Martin, have you seen Kasper?" " Kasper?" "Yes, Kasper." "Ne was just here." "Ne was just here?" " I forgot the chocolate." " It's alright." "People complain about that kind of thing." "Where's my chocolate?" " Did you hear that?" " What?" "You have to watch the desk." "Come, come..." "Easy..." "Easy now." "Easy... easy." "Easy..." "There now." "Let me..." "Do you want to sit up?" "Do you?" "Relax." "I'll get you a glass of water." "Don't worry." "So you came." "I was afraid you wouldn't come." "But you did." "You came." "Now you're here." "No, the police are still here." "I don't know when they're done." "Then, we have to find rooms for them." "Yes, bye." "Helene?" "I don't know why I came." " Hi." " Hi." "I couldn't stand being at home..." "Just sitting and staring." "None of us understand any of it." "We are all shocked." "I couldn't sleep last night." "I started to go through his things." "I found these  in the back of his closet." "I guess he took a couple home every day." "No, he wasn't really himself." "I just thought it would be a shame to throw them out." "I don't know what to say." "Neither do I." "Nina?" " Nina?" " Is someone on the staff named Nina?" "Yes." "She's our front office manager." "She's my wife." "Nina manages the reception." "She didn't have much to do with Kasper." "Not very much." "Hi." "Hi." "I'm Helene." "Yes?" "The wife." "I don't know..." "I don't understand what happened... here." "Ne doesn't want to talk to me." "Is there something you want to tell me?" "We don't know anything." "It's strange to see you." "You're more beautiful than I imagined." "I don't know why I thought you were ugly." "You're not ugly." "You're serious about him." "I can see it." "You really mean it." "Ne'll need you now." "Bring him a duvet." "Ne's very particular about bed linen and that kind of thing." "Ne loves clean linens." "Ne's lost everything he has but you." "And I'm free now." "I can feel that." "Now, you're the one." "You found Nina?" "And you... have talked?" "Yes." "I have to get going." "Goodbye, Nina." "You don't need to stay longer today if you don't want to." "You can go home to the kids and relax." "Or...?" "Is there something else you'd rather do?" "Nina." "I'll go home." "I'll sit with the girls." "Make them some hot chocolate, maybe." "Then I'll lie down on the sofa and rest." "Yes." "I'll think of nothing." "Sleep a little, maybe." "And before I know it, you'll be home with some food." "Something that makes the girls happy." "Pizza, maybe." "We'll eat and have a nice evening until the girls go to bed." "Is that how we do it?" "Yes." "That's how we do it." "People come and people go." "We are here and then we're not." "I am here." "I will come and I will go."
