"Mum!" "Mum!" "THE HEART IS A DARK FOREST" "Mum!" "Leave it open!" "Morning." "When did you get home?" "I hardly got any sleep, and the rehearsal starts soon..." "Why did you come at all?" "Do I get 15 more minutes?" "Alright, ten minutes..." "This is a natural product from traditional beekeeping." "Because of its natural consistency... honey isn't suitable for infants under 12 months." "Hello, little angel." "Can I go to the bathroom now?" " Sure." "As long as you want." "Run, pony, run!" "That's dumb." "What happened?" " Everything alright." "No, please, no!" "Can you do that, can you make both spoons stick?" "Are you blind?" "Ey, you've got spoons on your eyes." "Do I look pretty?" " I think it's a little too big." "It's not closed yet." "Go sit on your chair." "I wanted to come with you tonight." " Great." "No?" " Yes, sure." "I didn't plan to stay long, just play, then leave." "Because I want to come?" "Nonsense!" "They had a party at Richards yesterday." "I wasn't invited, but still went because of Thilo." "Why Thilo?" "Thilo gave a dinner party last night at Richards." "Really?" "I didn't know." "You are always tired on Friday." " I'm ALWAYS tired!" "Why did Thilo hold the party?" "Coffee?" "Sold lots of his paintings." "Those people were awful." "Dad, can I clean your violin?" " Yes, my daughter." "Juergen sends his regards." "Never!" "Yes, "Say hi to Marie, how is she" and so on." "Later I had a nice talk with Jonathan in the men's room." "Is this still about music, or just this pop thing?" "Pop." "I wanted to come home early tomorrow, to have breakfast with you." "Or maybe we could take a walk." "Your mother could have the children." "I asked her to look after them tonight." " Then ask her to do it tomorrow." "Take a walk?" " Yes, or talking or God knows what!" "You little angels!" "There's something on your tooth!" "It'll be totally stupid." " Or great!" "Whatever." "Have fun!" " Fun?" "It's to pay the rent!" "I don't want it anymore." "You don't want it either." "Speak for yourself." " It's true!" "What do YOU want?" "I want you to want it too." " Then everything's good!" "What happens if you don't pay your rent?" "Then you have to move at some point." "Leonie, what are you doing?" "I put my doll into Dad's case and he hasn't... noticed yet." "Do you think it'll work?" "Better leave the TV alone." "I'm back before they've finished." "And don't open the door, whatever they say." "Water is on the table." "I'll be back soon." "Thomas!" "Thomas?" "Hello." "Sorry, didn't Thomas just came in?" "Let's go." "Marie, that's our son Paul." "I wanted to name our son Paul, but you didn't want to." "Sit down." "And you go into the garden, okay?" "Marie!" "Marie!" "You always calm me down." "I have a feeling, you say it doesn't exist." "You're wrong, I didn't phone." "One day, I won't have feelings anymore..." "I'll feel like being on psychotropics, dependent on other peoples lies." "Please!" "How do I get off?" " Marie, don't flip." "I HAVE to work!" "Perhaps I have to work too." " We'll have to organise it somehow." "I'll have to organise it!" "I have to go." " Me too." "Stay." "Come on, you're doing great." "It'll be over soon, the little one will be in the nursery." "We need you." "Other women can do it." "Then I'm not a woman." " You're the best!" "I'm back." "Hello?" "Is anybody here?" "Yes, we are!" "Of course!" "Where have you been?" "The bus didn't come..." " You cycled." "I tidied the mess." "Come on." "Are you coming?" "Can I go to the phone?" " No." "Bet it's Grandma." "She wants to know if she should come." "Alright." "You heard what your father said." "Grandma's coming tomorrow." "I'll ask her." " That's enough!" "Hello?" " That can't be true!" "Leonie!" "Hello mum?" "Hello?" "Hello?" "Hello mum." " Yes?" "Did you drop the receiver?" " Why?" "You just phoned me." "Are you crazy?" "That's a warm-hearted reception!" "Calm down." "I just asked a question." " Really, the way you talk to me..." "Hello?" "Wait..." "Wait, for what?" " I'll call you back." "Should I come or not?" " Then do something else, bye." "Who was on the phone?" "You forgot to switch off the gas in the kitchen." "Who was on the phone?" "Grandma!" "Grandma." "Good night, Leonie." "We sat together at the pond..." "Elliot, me and the moon." "We had lots to talk about..." "Leonie, tell me who phoned earlier." "I know it wasn't grandma, I talked to her." "Come on, Leonie, tell me." "When the little bird saw the duck..." "Are you sad?" "What's wrong?" "I'm worried." "Why?" "If you hadn't put your doll in Dad's case..." "No problem, Mum, Dad borrowed a violin from Hanns." "But don't tell him that I told you." " What?" "It was Dad on the phone today earlier." "I thought so." " We also spoke at lunch time." "Why didn't you tell me?" "See?" "Now you're cross with me, even though it's not my fault." "Nonsense!" "Ouch!" " What did he say?" "That he found my doll in the case... and that he wasn't angry, because he could borrow a violin from Hanns." "And?" "He asked what we were doing..." "And?" " Nothing." "Eating spaghetti." "He said I shouldn't tell you that he phoned." "I see!" "Soon we're all going on holiday!" "And you believe him?" "I don't think it's right that your father told you to lie to me." "You should stop arguing." "I'm sorry!" "Do you have a lover?" "You think you can just ask like this?" "So what?" " Madness!" "Don't lie!" "Are you crazy?" " Just tell me!" "Alright." " No, I don't want to know." "Marie, I love you." "Don't look at me like that... these things happen." " Really?" "But you said, this is one and the other one is different." "It's called paranoia." "To mix up reality with fear." "You need professional help." "A psychiatrist or something like that!" "Better sleep with me." "Better sleep with me." "Better sleep with me." "Yes, hello?" "Hello?" " Yes?" "Listen!" "Are you still there?" " Sure." "Do you remember?" "Of course, but I don't have time right now..." "Sorry..." " How are you?" "Yes, I feel just great..." "Listen, Marie, I'll come by tomorrow." " Yes, tomorrow is..." "Tomorrow is fine." "Is that okay?" " Yes." "Can you make it?" " Yes." "What if..." "I don't make it?" "What are you doing here in the middle of the night?" "We are from the psychiatric emergency service." "Could we talk to you?" "No way, my children are asleep." " We'd like to see this for ourselves." "Your husband phoned and said you threatened to kill yourself..." "There, look at me." "Are you drunk?" "Every German has a drink in the evening." "Both children are asleep." "Pulse is normal." "That's scandalous!" "I'm sorry, but we were informed and it's our duty..." "This is so humiliating." "Yes?" "Listen, if you need help or support, please call us." "There's nothing wrong with having a problem one can't solve..." "My husband has a problem, not a small one..." "He sounded desperate." "He didn't know what else to do." "He should have come himself." " No one can force him." "I'm not great, but I cope." "I have friends." "I don't need you." "Well, if there is anything..." "That asshole!" "CENTRAL STATION" "Thomas." "What if I am pregnant?" "It's too early to say." " But if?" "Then we'll have an abortion." "Hello!" "Hello, Anna!" "Do you want to come in?" "He isn't here." "I know." "Then you go to sleep, okay?" "Green tea always tastes just green." "Are you afraid I'll hit you?" "You can try..." "Well..." "Now you know why I didn't call anymore." "I've often thought about you." "The whole time..." "I talked to him too..." " Oh, thanks!" "It was wrong... the way we..." "And I was so busy with the child, and being on tour..." "Yes, children take a lot out of you." " Yes, totally." "And the artwork, the costumes..." "Everything." "And they have dancers now." "Have you met them?" "To break off... not only with you, but with everybody in that time, that was like self-punishment." "I never was part of a group before, and never so happy..." "And now?" "Are you happy?" "I'm glad we're talking." "It's kind of sticky in here..." "Really?" "We should meet during the day and talk." "Today it's all a little too much..." "Sure, I'm sorry." "You can call me." " Yes, I like to." "Tomorrow, we're off, but then..." " I'm going, just wanted to see you." "A pity, but sure." "Did I leave a violin case here?" " No." "You had nothing when you came." "Tell me..." "Are you playing again?" " All day long." "All the best." "Yes, bye." "I'll call immediately on my return." " Okay." "Bye." " Bye." "Bye, bye..." " Come on, close the door!" "Castle Waldeck, please." "Off we go." "You look great..." " Yes." "Great." " What is it?" "Come on, let's go." "I feel stupid somehow." "I'm dead tired." "I'm staying." "Drop the babysitter off, we'll still pay her." "Oh no, Marie..." " Don't push me." "We'll have a lovely breakfast tomorrow, alright?" "Should I drop you off here?" "Yes." "Thank you." "Or should I go back..." " I already switched off the meter." "Hello?" "I've got an instrument for the musicians." "How do I get in?" "Through the door." "Hello?" "Now it's your turn!" "Whoops!" "Sorry, the gardener let me in." "I have a violin for a musician of the "Trioneo"." "Phew, and I thought it was a hold-up." "I hope you aren't disappointed." " I hope you've got a costume." "Down there, to the left is the musicians' dressing room." "Is everybody there already?" " No." "Just him." "There you are!" " Not bad..." "It's great!" "I'll be right back." "Oh yes..." "My little pussycat." "You have to go, Helmut will be here any minute." "Just let him come, Mietzi." "One day..." "One day we'll all be dead." "Sorry..." "Come in, please." "Don't make a racket, the children are sleeping next door today." "What else do you want?" "May I have a cigarette?" "She killed her own children." " Maria Callas?" "Medea." "Revenge on her husband." "He left her for someone else." "Quite right!" "Mietzi..." "Bauerschmidt woke us up!" " There's no Bauerschmidt here." "He just walked through our room..." " Nonsense!" "We want a hot chocolate and a story..." " No hot chocolate!" "I can read you a story if you like." ""The two children couldn't sleep because they were hungry... and had heard what the stepmother had said to the father." "Gretel cried and said to Hansel:" ""Now we're doomed."" "But Hansel said: "Don't worry, Gretel, I'll find a way out."" ""And when the grown-ups slept..."" "What?" " Enough!" "Don't shuffle like that." "He was here." "I saw him." "This time..." "Don't shout!" "See?" "It WAS Bauerschmidt!" " Yes!" "Shall I read on?" " I don't give a damn!" "What does the ape want here?" " Who are you talking about?" "Don't lie to me." "Not like that, not to my face!" "What's going on?" "I don't know." "Jesus, you again!" " Sorry..." "The children couldn't sleep." " Mum, Bauerschmidt was here... and then Helmut came, and..." " Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..." "I'll kill him!" "And then you, and then myself!" "Are you crazy?" "That's it, be quiet!" " Don't tell me this." "You can hear how crazy he is." " And Helmut, please leave now." "I don't want to see you again." "There was no one here but me." " She's lying." "This is none of my business, okay?" "I want no part of that, is that clear?" " Yes, alright." "So, that's it." "I count to 20 and then both of you sleep." "One." "Two." "Three." "Four." "Five." "Six." "Seven." "Eight." "Eighteen." "Nineteen." "Thank you, that's very kind." "I've got two myself." "A little younger." "You really want to lie down with them..." "No, not today." "Do you by any chance have a costume for me?" "I've got a whole trunk full of them." "Most important, you shouldn't look attractive!" "Thank you." " Have fun." "Can you pick me up?" " What happened?" "There was so much semen, it was all over me..." "And nothing to clean it off." " Sounds awful." "Where did you go?" "Downstairs, on a bench." "In the garden." "You pig!" "Do you know what he did then?" " No." "He took off his sock and cleaned my face." "I'm going to barf..." "Strange..." "I liked it." "Look out for someone who wears just one sock, okay?" "Hanns!" "Marie?" "What are you doing here?" "Thomas left his violin at home." " I know." "Does he know that you're here?" " He doesn't need to." "Yeah, whatever." "You look great." "Thanks." "Got a cigarette?" "Do you want to wait for Thomas?" "Shall I get us something to drink?" "I think I'm lovesick." "Funny, I thought you wouldn't know what it meant." "I always thought you were a lesbian." " What?" "Yes." "And lesbians are never lovesick?" "Don't know, don't give a shit." "Are you?" "No." "Not that I know, I don't know." "Why do you say such a thing?" "Well, it looked like you didn't seem to care." "About what?" " Well..." "Thomas and the women..." "First time I've heard of it." "Well, it was so obvious, everybody knew." "I didn't." "Why didn't you ever tell me anything?" "Told you, thought you were a lesbian." "Thought the two of you had some kind of a deal." "Nobody knows, I mean..." "Never saw you with another man." "But you must have had sex?" "No!" " No?" "What a conclusion." "A man cheats on his wife, so she has to be frigid... or a lesbian." "You know, what do I know?" "You always know everything, Hanns." " Yes, I know." "The violin is on the table." "One, two, three, four..." "Ouch!" "Don't know how to do the thing tomorrow." "What?" "I don't know how..." " What do you mean?" "I'm afraid to talk about my problems." " What do you mean?" "I have to talk to your father, what to play at the audition..." "I can't do it." "Sure you can!" " I'm ULTRA stressed." "I know, you are too, but why?" " What will you play?" "Tchaikovsky." "How low." " I cancel." "Nonsense, he hates Tchaikovsky!" " Perhaps that's not so bad." "Play Bach." " What?" "Solo Sonata!" "Simple!" "I've a great record." "No, don't get it." "I'd rather sleep than talk." "I'll fetch it quickly." "No, I'm already de..." "I sleep on the couch." "Come here, it'll work out." "Let him talk about Bach, he loves Bach." "Yes, maybe that's better." "Absolutely!" "Sorry..." "Jesus Christ." "If I'm dreaming, please wake me up now..." "You recognise reality when you ask:" "Is this a dream?" "Whilst dreaming you never say:" ""Do I dream?"" "In a dream everything just happens... like pedestrians passing a beggar." "Oh God..." "You can call me Valentin..." "Dad!" "Come, sit with me." "Have a drink with me." "I'm embarrassed to drink alone." "It's about to start..." "The fireworks." "Did you see that?" "What did I see?" "I see a blonde woman, tall, straight legs... and enough dramatic expression to break everyone's heart." "Dad, it's me, Marie." " Marie?" "Your daughter?" "!" "Kitten..." "Let me look at you." "You see, my glasses give me a headache." "You tried to hit on me!" "No." "I wanted to watch the fireworks." "What's wrong?" "Nothing." "Where is Giselle?" "Are you alone?" " Terrible party, hmm?" "Why don't you call me, when you're in Hamburg?" "I have to go to Salzburg tomorrow." "Last time you saw the children, was... wait, at your birthday." "Are they already at college?" "Leonie will go to preschool soon, Elliot will go to nursery." "Then you'll be able to work again." "You know that you can come back anytime." "Thomas is on probation." "We can get rid of him." "Anyhow he loves this pop thing a lot." "Dad, what are you suggesting?" " You've always been better than him." "Nobody is good enough for you." "You're still practising, aren't you?" " Dad!" "Thomas has another woman." "Another house, children..." "He has two of everything." "A duplicate, do you understand?" "Jesus!" "So you can make a lot of money with that pop stuff." "Now can you watch that idiot spending the rest of his life... working to keep you." "Great idea!" "Great life!" "I always told you that he's a good for nothing!" "Dad, my heart is wounded!" "Please comfort me." "Come!" "I don't know why I'm still here..." "Well, then go home, kitten..." "I want to talk with him!" " When?" "Here?" "Now?" "What's wrong?" " No, everything is alright." "I'm going to have the same life as Mum." "Sorry, but you're too heavy for me!" "I'll be like her, sitting depressed at home, terrorising the children." "Your mother is a sick woman." "You..." "have talent." "You have an instrument." "So did Mum." "She raised two kids." "If you had done that, she could have had a career." "Sorry, darling." "You're confusing the matter." "When I met your mother, I knew exactly what I wanted." "She did not!" "She didn't dare." "You could have supported her!" "I had to look after myself." "It was only the beginning." "And then she had a child." "Both of you had a child!" "That was ME!" "Come on, sit down." "We still have so much time together." "Look, the fireworks." "Marie?" "Thomas, I begin..." "Helmut, you have to go home now!" " Yes, yes." "They are great, hm?" "Stand up!" "Don't fall..." "How do I get out of here?" " There is no way out." "What's your name?" " Jonathan." "Jonathan, hold me tight." "Jonathan!" "What's wrong?" "Do you want to wear me down?" "And the way you look!" "And where is your sock?" "What?" "Are you drunk?" " You bastard!" "What did you do to my life?" "!" "No, I'm leaving!" " Marie!" "Hope you'll both be happy with what you did, and piss on each other!" "Why aren't you home?" "Where are the children?" "As if that would interest you THAT much!" " Your mother is with them..." "Shut the fuck up!" "Fine, we can go on talking like this." "Is your mother with them?" "They are alone." "They sleep and will never wake up again." "And after I'm through with you, I'll slash myself!" "You are totally crazy!" "I don't believe a single word!" "Yes, bye, it's over..." "My little ones..." "I hope they're still asleep..." "Sure." "They're asleep." "Tell me that it'll be over..." "Say that you love me, tell me that everything will be fine..." "The crying..." "Always the crying..." "One can't talk, if you always cry." "You're all the same." "Penis!" "Yeah..." "Yeah, that's what you think." "But you are wrong, my dear." "All of you are wrong." "You don't understand." "But you can't help it!" "It's inside of you!" "You're compelled to procreate... it's stronger than your intellect." "One has to be careful with you." "Did anybody ask me?" "Yes, I did!" " And what did I say?" "Fuck, shit!" "I didn't want that!" "But that doesn't matter." "It wasn't about me at all." "You just wanted your stupid romantic, motherly feelings!" "Come, get up." "You have to get hold of yourself." "I take the children with me on holiday, and you get better." "Don't take the children away from me." " Stop this nonsense!" "Go on holiday too, travel to the sea." "Get some rest." "Take a girlfriend." "What about Sabrina?" "I've got nothing." "I..." "I don't want anything." "It's over, isn't it?" "He did it." "The forester's house is burning!" "Marie?" "Come on, this won't lead to anything today." "Thank heavens that we got paid in advance!" "She's gone!" " Well, you did send her away." "She was so angry..." "Yes, today of all days." "When you had your concert." "Typical woman!" "Under the stairs is a lot of spirit." "If you want, I can help you burn it all down." "Bye, Jonathan." "Hey!" "This beautiful old house..." "I'm so sorry." "Did you see Jonathan?" "No." "Do you have a cigarette?" "Do you have children?" "I find it comforting that you don't want to sleep with me." "What else then?" "Oh, no!" "Evening." "Did you see Jonathan?" " No." "Looks like malicious arson." "Where is Helmut?" "Helmut!" "Hello!" " Did you get lost?" "Come on, Helmut!" " Jonathan!" "Helmut!" "Say, could I have the jacket back?" "It's an individual piece." " Sure!" "Bye." "Bye." "Oh, man..." "Subtitles by LeapinLar"
