"I think that the quality of my life... has improved." "Yes, exactly." "I am Wiebe Vorsselmans and I can say that I've... that we've..." "Come on." "The microphone's bothering me a bit." "I am Wiebe and I can say that I've... found out that I'm much..." "Hello, I'm Grace Keeley." "I work hard as an actress, which is why I need time to myself." "I can get that in these beautiful natural surroundings." "But for how long?" "If we don't act fast this little forest may soon be dead." "Help the environment." "How?" "That's up to you." "I've sold my car, for instance." "Why?" "Because I want my grandchildren to enjoy this too." "That's why I'll use a bike from now on." "State clearly that we've stopped working." "I've stopped working." "We." "We!" "I am Wiebe and I've said "Stop!"" "PART 2 NATURE HAS NO EGO" "Shall I turn it on so we can demonstrate the tilling?" "I wanted to thank the jury... and I wanted to thank my make-up artist for her great work." "And now for something else." "He's young, ambitious, handsome and..." "Stop sucking up, woman." "The new Minister of the Environment." "Hi." "Hi!" "And that's how it all ends well." "What does she have that I don't?" "Don't get worked up." "She's just trying to be like you." "Why was I fired then?" "If she tries to be like me anyway." "Don't watch then." "Is it about age?" "Are you coming with me, Patty?" "Her cup size is greater than her IQ." "Patty..." "Where to?" "The Golden Trumpet awards." "I've been nominated for Best Female Lead." "Are you coming?" "No." "That's mummy." "I'm not here." "I didn't tell her yet." "Yes, mummy." "Yes, she got fired." "Here she is." "Yes, mummy." "They told me yesterday that I've been made redundant." "I don't know." "Maybe I'm not good enough." "Because I'm not good enough!" "Wiebe!" "Wiebe!" "I know you're raping my garden because you love nature since last week... but can you make less bloody noise?" "Do you think she's a lot better?" "That woman who took over my program!" "Not now!" "Tonight, at the press conference." "They're here for us, Grace." "They want to know about our plans." "From which station are they?" "The regional station." "Oh, that makes sense." "Congratulate me, congratulate me." "On what?" "Best female lead." "Congratulations." "Max, you have to help me." "I'm so worried about Patty." "I can't..." "She's all confused." "She talks to her demented mother for hours." "I can't at the moment..." "She's driving me crazy!" "She's getting on my nerves." "I have to prepare a speech." "I'm rather down myself, so..." "I can't solve it for her either." "It's all in her head." "I'm having a very hard time." "But that's why." "I'm not asking just anyone." "You're familiar with the black hole." "Yes, I am." "Do you want her to fall in too?" "Of course not." "You know her best." "You've been married to her for 8 years." "I can't do it today." "Ok." "I have to solve this myself." "Maybe I should cancel tonight." "If I come home and she's killed herself..." "Grace." "You're doing it, thank you." "I'll go prepare my speech." "This is where I got the idea to organise spiritual courses." "You got the idea?" "Our idea." "The epicentre of Hertenkamp." "Today a very interesting woman comes to talk about her life... between plants." "I don't know the details, but she has lived as a plant." "It's about her dialogue with nature." "Exactly, that's what I said." "We're doing that as well." "It's very exciting." "It's about ego and nature and what can happen between them." "Are you going to grow vegetables and which ones?" "What is it all going to cost?" "That's not what the course is about." "No?" "No, it's called "Nature Has No Ego."" "How nature's a source of energy and wisdom and that we lost contact with it." "Because our egos are too big, for instance." "Hey, Pat." "Are you alright?" "It's hard sometimes, isn't it?" "Just think that all the negative things... also have a positive side." "You just have to... look in the right direction." "You must be prepared to see it." "That's very important, Patty." "Try to open yourself up and make yourself empty." "Nature has so much to offer." "All this free energy, power, love." "You have to be able to see it though." "So look!" "Take a flower, for instance." "A piece of bark or a leaf." "It's so wonderful." "Can I ask something before we go?" "Does anybody mind that we film during the course?" "Yes, I'm against." "There's already so much filming going on, disgusting." "I'd prefer no filming during the exercises." "Oh, that's... a problem." "What can we do?" "Let them film you, Wiebe." "Great idea, Eva." "Concentrate on me, guys." "Don't focus on the others and..." "Yes, that was all." "Let's put on our coats then." "Do you know what I mean, Patty?" "In order to be happy, Pat." "Patty?" "Yes." "I'm coming." "Max, I have a driving lesson." "Concentrate on me, guys." "Watch this." "Oh, tree!" "Wow!" "I've never worked with such a great crew and cast before." ""Welcome" is an indictment of the current asylum seeker policy." "Could you time me?" "I can only take a minute." "When I read the script, I thought:" ""Grace Keeley, you can't do this."" "It went really well last week, didn't it?" "You were driving very assertively." "Powerful pedal approach." "This time we'll introduce relaxation to the mix." "Make yourself comfortable." "Hands at 10 to 2 on the wheel." "Like that, yes." "Relax and start the engine." "Sorry, Willemien, everything's going wrong." "No, girl." "You may not be an automotive genius... but you can learn to drive." "You adjust the mirrors very well." "Starting's going fairly well." "I can't do anything and I don't amount to anything!" "Relax, Patty." "Take your arms off the wheel." "We'll recline the chair." "Assume the sleeping position." "GRACE KEELEY:" "MY PARTNER'S DEVASTATED PATTY PALTIER WITH EARLY RETIREMENT" "WILL THIS WOMAN SAVE EUROTALK" "GRACE KEELEY FINALLY NOMINATED FOR GOLDEN TRUMPET" "I keep wondering if you're the actress from the commercial for the environment." "Yes, that's me." "I thought so." "It's her!" "I kept wondering if it was you." "I think it's great." "And who are you?" "Wies, I'm taking the course downstairs." "Could I get your autograph?" "Ok, quickly." "I have to go to the ceremony for the Golden Trumpet awards." "Have you been nominated?" "Best female lead." "Let me find the page." "The best female lead?" "Fantastic." "Will you go there by bike?" "Why?" "Didn't you sell your car?" "Oh, yes." "Thanks very much." "Good luck!" "I have these moods lately, where I almost explode." "I feel such hatred it sickens me." "Like this morning, when I saw Wiebe." "Wiebe?" "Him." "The creep that's humping that tree." "He's Eva's husband and I've got it with her too." "It's getting worse." "Max, for instance." "Who's Max?" "That's my ex-husband." "He came to cheer me up." "I didn't have it with him yet." "And then I imagined..." "Should I say it?" "Yes, if you want to get it off your chest." "That I beat him to death." "That I bashed his brain in with a big stick." "That's repressed sexuality." "Of course, I understand it's repressed sexuality." "But those overgrown boy scouts aren't sexually all that sane either." "Stick to your own projections." "Yes, you're right." "So I still see daddy in other men?" "And mummy in other women?" "Yes." "Or the other way around?" "And I want attention." "Mainly from Grace." "Here, a cup of coffee." "That's sweet." "It's not going well at all, is it?" "Yes, it is." "Yes?" "Yes." "Don't touch me, please." "Oh, sorry." "It's alright." "Sorry." "Your energy's mixing with mine and the tree's." "No, I understand, sorry." "What's your name again?" "Wies." "Wies." "When I started this, I had a lot of aggression towards my partner." "It's all gone." "I noticed I'm getting answers I already knew." "As if I said it myself." "I see." "And I feel as if I got a new pair of eyes." "That's what it's about." "Cleaning the glass of your eyes." "Hello, Grace." "Good luck." "Eva, can I borrow your bike?" "My bike?" "Are you going by bike?" "To the award ceremony?" "Yes, is that so strange?" "It's 60 kilometres." "But don't let me stop you." "Very good of you, Grace." "Impressive, isn't it?" "It's to do with the commercial for the environment." "She sold her car." "Good luck!" "Yes." "Damn it!" "GRACE KEELEY - "WELCOME" BEST FEMALE LEAD" "It's happening." "They'll take you to the Dutch/Belgian border tonight." "From there, you'll be on your own." "Here's a passport." "From now on, your name's Bert." "Bert Hoek." "Good luck, Bert." "Merci." "Sometimes I'm ashamed of my fellow countrymen." "I hope you'll be welcome in another country." "Merci." "GOLDEN TRUMPET" "The winner of the Golden Trumpet in the Best Female Lead category is..." "I'm not getting it anyway." "How sad." "So you didn't win?" "No." "I didn't really expect it." "I'd never heard of the awards before." "Liselore Lancee for "Hanna and Whore"" "Liselore Lancee for playing a heart-warming prostitute." "Nobody can understand her." "Shall I give you a blowjob?" "Shall I give you a blowjob or do you want to fuck me up the ass?" "Bravo!" "What did you think of the winner?" "Very good." "Lise is a real professional." "The way she plays a heroin prostitute is so vulnerable... so transparent, almost over the top." "I can't compete with the ego of an actress, Eva." "I auditioned for it." "You did?" "But they said I looked too good for a junkie." "It's hard to see someone else win, isn't it, Grace?" "Sometimes it's not and then it's best to be honest about it." "Just like you didn't want your wife to be in any scene of your amateur movie." "But I don't want that at all." "Give me a break." "If there's anyone in this room who always needs to be right, it's you." "It's not about being right." "It starts." "Look!" "SPIRITUAL TRAINING CENTRE HERTENKAMP" "Those are my hands." "I'm Eva Vorsselmans and this is my husband Wiebe." "We used to have a store..." "What a creepy woman." "Great that they're showing you too." "You're fat, Eva." "We weren't happy." "Nice." "We felt we weren't living life to the fullest." "Now they'll be showing that bit where I... where I..." "And we started our Spiritual Training Centre." "Eva Vorsselmans and her husband stopped working and... opted for a different way of life." "They cut you out completely, Wiebe." "NATURE HAS NO EGO." "For 300 guilders, you can feel like a different person." "That's a short movie career, Wiebe." "The message came across, darling!" "Fucking bitch!" "Fuck, fuck, fuck!" "Pigheaded cunt!" "Fucking bitch!" "Ouch!" "Damn it!" "Who'd like another drink?" "Yes, a cola." "No, go to bed, Toto." "Hurry up, Toto." "Eva, a drink to the good outcome?" "No, dear, I don't think it's a good outcome." "Grace, another cognac?" "Are you coming, darling?" "Before it gets completely out of hand." "Cup of tea?" "Fucking bitch, damn it!" "Oh, sorry, tree!" "What am I doing?" "Wiebe." "Hey." "I just talked to a tree, Eva." "For the first time." "I didn't get a chance this afternoon." "He said I talk a lot." "After that I didn't say anything for an hour." "An hour, Eva." "It wasn't boring at all." "It was very special." "A bit to the left." "A bit to the left, darling." "Yes, like that." "Do you want to say goodnight to the plant?" "It's not your average plant." "It's not?" "It's Pocahontas." "Oh." "Goodnight, Pocahontas." "Goodnight, Pocahontas." "Patty!" "Patty!" "Mummy's here!" "Patty!" "Come!" "Patty!" "Patty, come!" "Mummy's here!" "Patty!" "Patty!" "Mum?"
