"I don't know." "A small De Luxe Menu." " Aren't you hungry?" "Don't you want a big one?" "Well, we just met." " A large De Luxe." "All right." "Well, no." "A Cheese Royal." "Welcome to MacDonald's." "Your order, please." "Oh, no." "Ice cubes!" " We said no ice cubes." "They're idiots, that's all." "You can't trust them." "Can I put this..." " Go ahead." " What's your name?" "Excuse me." "Mark." "And you?" " Did you see how long it took you to answer?" " 10 minutes!" " So tell me, what's your name?" "Something was stuck." " What's your name?" "I said Mark." " Come on." "What is it?" "And you?" " My real name?" "I'll tell you." "What is it?" " Lionel." "Lionel?" " And your's?" "Loic." " Why didn't you tell me before?" "I don't know." "If I use an alias it's because I don't want to tell you." " On line, I understand, but here..." " What's the difference?" " Loic is nice." "Unusual." "It's from Brittany." " Are you from Brittany?" "My parents met there." " In Brittany?" "They were at a demonstration against oil spills or something." "They met there." "You want to know all about me." " You can tell me to fuck off." "I'm just trying to protect" "my character's intimacy facing your's." "I mean..." " Your character!" " I'm playing a role." "We don't know each other." " It's great to eat." " When was the last time?" "It's been at least a day." " A day?" " Yeah." " Why?" "I'm saving money." " Economising on food?" "I've already put some money aside." " It's not a great idea." "I don't mind." "Food costs a lot." " Never hungry?" "I have a system." " A system?" "I have a system." "Aspirin with Maalox." " You take aspirin and Maalox." "You know about that?" "Photos aren't allowed." " You finished work early?" "Today, yeah." " How are you?" " Like your picture?" " It's nice." " You don't." " You're working?" "Yes." ""REFLECTIONS ON HITLERIAN PHILOSOPHY"" " What's that?" "Hitlerian..." " Hitler." " You know Hitler." "Ah..." "Hitlerian." "I didn't understand." "Notice anything?" " Notice anything about me?" "My eyebrow..." "The piercing." " You see something?" "Yeah." "I see." " It's a piercing." "Yes, I know." " How do you like it?" "Why did you do it?" "I called right away." "Otherwise I wouldn't do it." "He disinfected it, then pinched the skin gently and clack!" "Did it hurt?" " A bit." "Good Evening." " 2 tickets, please." "We close in 10 minutes." " Go right in." " Can you give me 10 minutes?" "I'll take some pictures." "Do you mind?" "You coming?" "Be careful." "Do you want to sleep over?" "I live alone." "If you want, you can stay." "It's not a problem." "Where do I put the condom?" " Leave it on the sink, I'll take care of it." "Do you have someone?" "A lover?" "I'm all alone." "I had someone last year for about 2 or 3 weeks." "He was a very egocentric guy and didn't take care of me." "I want someone to care of me and I would care for him." " I want to live as a normal couple and not just sit in a corner" "waiting for someone to draw near, waiting for someone to want me." "He got up in the morning and went right to the computer." "He went to the computer after lunch." "He was always at the computer." " How do you get home?" " I stay with girlfriend in Lausanne." " There aren't any late trains to Bulle." " You sleep at her place?" " Yes." " Are you bi or gay?" " No, I'm gay." " She's a friend." "It's a long story." " We care for each other." " It's affection." "What's that devilish look?" " I was thinking about all of your adventures." "Oh yeah?" " You're real hot on line." " You're direct." " You don't go on and on." "Why waste time?" "Can you tell me?" " Before sex it's interesting to..." " Internet is expensive." " What's interesting before sex is seduction, even on line." "Seduction?" " Yes." " Waiting a bit..." "Desiring the other..." "Yeah." "Yeah." "I know." "I'm direct." "With me it's:" "" Come here and Bang! "" "We meet and that's it." " I don't want to piss you off but to desire someone you should wait awhile, you should try, just a little." "It depends if you want to fuck or if you're looking for something more." "You prefer feelings?" " It's about the pleasure of being with someone even for a moment." " Even for a brief moment." "The pleasure of being together." " In fact, sex itself isn't that important." "I never..." " I don't want to disappoint you." "I never thought about it." "But I don't like to waste time." " Understand?" "I have to do this, so go away for a moment." " I made 300 francs last night." "How?" "I was by the lake and a car came up." "I went over because I thought the guy was good-looking." "But not really." "He was an old man, about 75." "I told him no." "I was polite, but I said it was out of the question." "He offered 300 francs." " For 300, you just close your eyes." " So I got in and we went to his place." " I undressed." "He sucked me, I sucked him, the usual stuff." "But then he wanted me to eat him out!" "I slide 1 finger in, then 2, but then, listen to this," "he pulled out a long flashlight." "I should have asked for 500 francs!" " It was as wide as this and round." "Stop!" "I don't want to know." "Why not?" "Why not?" "Not interested?" "I don't want to know." " Stop it." "I don't want to know." " You're a prude!" " Excuse me." "You know what they're up to?" "They're going to fuck." "They're going to fuck." " Shut up!" "" Shut up "?" "I watched them the other day." "What?" " Just stop it." "They can't hear us." "People don't fuck all the time like you." "They live normal lives." "They didn't want us to follow them." "Some people are simply interested in life, in things..." "Things!" " People don't always go to museums with ulterior motives, with twisted minds." "Something... something strange happened the other day." "How can I explain?" "It's the first time." "I was on line, as usual." "I chatted with this guy." "We talked ass, then made a rendezvous at MacDonald's in Bulle." "You getting lurid again?" " He asked me all kinds of questions." " Usually you talk sex." "But not him." "He really wanted to know about me." "It sort of threw me off." "Why are you so intrigued?" "Why am I intrigued?" "It's his honesty." "These encounters are usually pretty cold." "But there, something happened." "He was normal and asked normal questions." "I trusted him." "I even spoke about you." "What did you say?" "You interested?" " Yes." "It was about me." " The truth." "Like what?" " I can't tell you everything." "I said that you were kind and you help me out letting me stay with you in Lausanne." " That you squat at my place and that I'm easy." "Yeah, I play the male role in this story!" "No, but that I stay with you, you're cool and very nice to me." " Yeah, I'm nice." " You're very patient." " I'm very nice." "I said so." "Then he asked if I'm bi." "I said no, I'm gay." " I never did that before." "Why?" "It's nobody's business." " Seeing him again?" "He said yes." "Have you been in love?" " Yes." "Yes?" " Yes." " For real." "With a young man?" " Yes." "A man?" " Of course." "Why?" "How did you meet?" " We had mutual friends." "You mean that a friend introduced you and it happened." " We got along and fell in love." "What's it like to be in love?" "How do you feel inside?" " When you wake up in the morning you see the world differently, as if you were standing on a chair." " Normally you see a room from a certain angle." " Then you climb up and look down and everything is different." " Being in love is like that." "Fascinating!" " Climbing on chairs?" "Listening to you, knowing you're in love." "Are you still in love?" " No." "It's over." "So now it's as if you fell off the chair head first and broke your jaw." " Exactly." "The room is as it was before." " Exactly." " But from an lower point of view." "Okay." " Slowly." " Stop!" "You're scaring me." "Don't be an idiot." " When I drive I like..." "You never drive, it's my car." "It's dangerous." "Your dad let me drive the tractor like I wanted to." " Don't mention that asshole." "Stop!" "Stop!" " Something broke!" "Pull over there." "Did you look in the rear view mirror?" "God, you're ignorant!" "Over there." " You're stressing me out." " Pull over." "We're in the middle of the road." "What a kill-joy!" " Kill-joy!" "Turn it off." "Idiot!" " It's not easy." "You keep shouting." "The problem is that you're being an asshole." "Now let's get going." "The hands of a watch." "I don't want to say it each time." ""Hands of a watch" doesn't mean anything." "We just did it 10 times." " Like the hands of a watch..." "At this rate it will take time just to start the car!" "You can't talk out loud at the driving test." "I talk out loud to remember." " In the meantime, you're not starting the car." "Thank you." "Seat belt?" " With you at the wheel I should wear a harness." "A harness!" " And a helmet." " I need calm when I drive." " Stop blaspheming all the time." "Blasphemy?" " Do you know what that means?" " It's pretty complicated to explain." "Yes, it's pretty complicated." "But the word "blasphemy"..." " It means you make fun of me." "It means making fun of you!" "A blasphemer is someone who speaks badly about Loic?" " Right?" "Go on!" "Make fun of me." "Blasphemy means speaking against God." " So is Loic God?" " That's blasphemy?" "It means to curse God." " You're a pain in the ass with your blaspheming!" " Yes, God." "Shit!" "Please!" "Calm down." "You could knock." " I knock before coming in." "You have a problem?" " Don't you see that..." "You didn't used to be so shy." " That's finished." "" I'm a man now "!" "Pass me a towel." " I have lotion on my hands." "Lotion!" " Hand lotion." " Give me the towel." " Please." " Give me that." "Fuck!" "Get out!" "I'm getting scorched." "Please, get out." "Give me the towel and get out, Marie, please!" "Install the exercise bar because I have to..." "Watch out!" "Install it." "I have a bad back." " Get out!" " Now I know what I want to do." "Photography." " Be a photographer." "Great!" " A photographer friend liked my photos." "A professional?" "Semi-professional." "He does it for pleasure but he's good." "He said I work well." "With the mobile?" " He thought the photos were good and that I have some understanding." "It's a big step from pushing buttons to becoming a photographer." "And you could do it." "You could learn in school." "There's no technique!" "No technique?" "Do you know about light, about..." "It's an art, it's not just snapping a..." "with a telephone." "My friend knows a little more than you do." "He said my pictures of you were good." "This guy shows up and says:" "" You can be a photographer. "" "He's changed your life." "Are you in love?" "I believe him." "And he's not after my body." "He's a friend." "It is a chance to travel." "To go to Africa, film lions, civilisations, villages, anything." "The things I like." "" Impressionist " things." "Impressionist photography!" "He taught you that word." " No." "I..." " Why always mention him?" "Do you know what it means?" "It's when you take pictures spontaneously." "You don't know what that means." " Yes I do." "Hold on." "He told you that you were a very "Impressionistic " boy." "Wait a minute." "I was only joking." " Loic." " Sorry." "It's..." "It's a good idea." "Is that why you laughed?" "No, but " Impressionism "!" "So?" "Don't you think I know what it is?" "It was created by Impressionists, such as Lenoir and company." "It was new at the time." "I don't see why I can't do something new?" "True." "Honestly." "I read about it." "I'm not an idiot who forgets things." "That's not it." "What will you photograph?" "I told you." "Okay, but..." "You always talk about leaving." "I want to go away." " Why?" "Photograph people in Bulle." "What can I photograph in Bulle?" "The people." "The factory." "You should stop studying, get a job and see what a factory is like." "Get up at 5 a.m., clean the shit, and work on the production line." "Who would be interested?" "Who'd care?" " I would." "I can't do photos just for you." "Many people will be interested." " If I go, let me finish, if I go away, I can return with things that people have never seen." "It would be better to take pictures of the guys you sleep with." "Sleep?" "I fuck them." "Would that be pretty?" "Okay, it's not nice." "But why just show pretty things?" "Romping lion cubs, a sunset, a palm tree?" "Why not say:" "" I want to film my life "?" "It would be..." " Take pictures of me." "Not that I want to be photographed but there's feeling." "You know me better than anyone." "You could photograph me better than anyone." "Take pictures of me, not of lions." "Okay." "You're already a lioness!" "I'll photograph you when you roar." "Hello." "Shall I suck you?" "Now?" "Yes." " Slowly." "What's the hurry?" "I don't like wasting time." " It's not good while driving." " I like to be fucked and be sucked." " I like to suck, too." " Caressing?" "Not really." " A real slut." " You could say that." " There's a lot of meat in Lausanne, so I don't often leave." " I'm Fribourg meat." " I'll have to taste." " Are you pierced?" " Can't you see?" " Over the eye." " That's not a piercing!" " It's all I've got." "Who would have thought!" "Let me see." "Suck me." "Bitch!" "God!" "The piercings!" "Fuck!" "I can't believe it." "I've got to take a photo." "2 piercings!" "I've never seen that." "Maxi-Banana!" "I don't believe it." "You fuck yourself?" " Yeah." "That's not for me." "You walk around with this, at work and everything?" "Well, you know salesmen get bored and have to pass the time." "That's really passing time!" "This is quite unique!" "To each his own." "Have you been to Paris?" "I heard that they fist fuck up to here." " Some guys..." "All the way to here." "And you?" " More or less up to here." " Mid-forearm." "Mid-forearm." "Do you realise that my forearm goes to there?" "I'd touch your lungs." "I can't believe you did it." "So you slide it in gently." " It goes up to there?" " No problem." "You have to prepare yourself." " Of course..." " What's the best position for fucking yourself with this?" "I usually sit on it." " I want to watch." " Take it." "That's good." "I like to try different angles." "How do you like this one?" "Cool, no?" " What's that?" "Don't you see?" "2 piercings." "2 piercings, just under his cock." " Under his balls." "Under his balls." "I think it's real cool." " You like it?" "It's an awful photo." "It's weird and really bizarre." "Don't you like it?" " I don't know." "It's a bit clinical." " It's a genre, but rather clinical." " It seems a bit..." "Everything I do is shit!" " I didn't say that." " Everyone thinks so." " Did you do it for Marie or for you?" "She told me to." "I enjoy taking pictures of things we've never seen." "You've never seen that before." "You can't please everyone." "What do you think of me?" " How do you mean?" "Physically?" "For a start." " What's amusing is that you have" "a very angular head." " Don't look at me like that." "You want to freak me out?" " Your head is very..." "Turn you head." " Look at the sun." " Look straight ahead." " Your nose practically makes a right angle." " Almost a 90I angle." "That's awful." " It's good." "It's good." " But your face is very angular." "What does angular mean?" " It means many angles." "Oh, yeah, lots of angles." " The opposite of round." " Your face is... a little..." "Like a Stealth Bomber." " Like a Stealth Bomber." "Lot's of..." "I get it." "Do you like that?" " Don't you?" "It's nice, it's..." "I don't often look in the mirror." " Your profile is like a Greek statue." "Cool." " It's nice, no?" "You happy?" "I never thought about it." "It's strange..." "I expected..." "I don't know." "I didn't expect anything." " Aren't you flattered?" " Stop playing the tortured soul." "You know you're a pretty boy." "What did you say?" " You're blushing." "Your blushing." " You know you're good looking." " Playing with those seductive eyes!" "No." " That seductive look!" "I've been told I have nice eyes but not that I look Greek." "Is that why you're here with me now?" "To discover who I am?" " I'm discovering you now." " That's true." " You're showing me your castle..." "My Castle!" "Shit!" "It's Gruyere Castle." "I didn't build it nor create it nor carry the heavy stones." " I've seen your photos." "True." "He's nice but during exams he's not the same." "He watched me like a hawk." "I got as red as a tomato." "Here's Loic." "Loic, this is Fred." " Hello." "I'll be leaving." "See you tomorrow?" " Yes." "Happy?" "Thanks." "You said that Bulle was once part of National League "A"." "You want to get back into League "B"." "Does Bulle have a role to play in League "B"?" "Yes, I think so." "Regionally speaking" "Fribourg doesn't have a National League team." " There should be a team to represent the canton." " A team which could join National League "A"or "B"." "It could only be a plus for the young people of the region." " Playing for thousands of fans in Portugal, then relatively few here, is it hard to stay motivated?" " Yes, it makes a big difference." "And there's the climate." " It's the first year I've trained in below freezing weather." " It's the first time." " But it's also cold now in Portugal, in France..." "RUI ALVES:" "THE MULTI-LINGUAL BALL OF ENERGY SPEAKS HIS MIND" " Closing time." "Bye-Bye." "We're closing." " Lionel." " Lionel." "Turn that off!" "What's up?" " Come." "Get in here!" " What's your problem?" "Suck me." "That's what you want!" "You're a disgusting fake!" "That's all you want!" "My Greek profile!" "Bullshit!" "Pig!" "It's all fake!" "Bullshit!" "You haven't been frank with me!" " Wait." "Queer!" " Where were you?" "You crazy?" "Where were you?" "I took a walk." " A walk!" "Don't mock me!" "Liar!" "I don't have to explain..." "I followed you." "You were with the guy from the museum." "He's so fat even I wouldn't fuck him." "He ran his fingers through your hair." "And then?" "Did you fuck and suck him?" "Do I ask what you do in bed?" " Shut up!" "It's not the same." "He'll drop you." "How do you..." " Slut!" " You're digusting." " Slut?" "Out!" " That's it." "Get out!" "Do I ask you about the sickening things you do?" "Fuck off!" "One doesn't follow people in the streets." "You made me scream." "It's not good." " Plug your ears." "It's not sordid." "It's simply someone to talk to." "But you wouldn't know." "You're only interested in yourself." "You're dirty." "You're the pig." "You go with anyone." "It's time." " Well Loic," "I can't play mama anymore." "Nights like last night?" "No more!" "I'm too old to babysit and too young to play mom to a 20 year old." " I have goals." "Your life is a mess." "You try shocking me with your stories." "You think it works?" "You think it shocks me?" "It just makes me feel sorry for you." "Do you even care?" " Do you understand?" "We should stop seeing each other." "Completely." "I'm fed up watching you loaf around." " It's depressing and unenriching." "Enough!" "It's over!" "LIONEL IS CALLING" "5 UNANSWERED CALLS" "MARIE IS CALLING" "9 UNANSWERED CALLS" " Here's my Loic." "I'm not your Loic." " Sorry." " A strange place to meet!" "Your kind of place, no?" " Let's sit down." "Okay." "On the bench?" " So?" "What?" " So?" "Nothing!" " I'm glad to see you." "It's been awhile." "C'est la vie!" "We can't see each all the time." " The last time we met it was a bit..." "I had 5 minutes, so I called." " 5 minutes!" " Precise!" "I had to come to Lausanne." "Since we hadn't seen each other" "I thought I'd call." " What's going on in Lausanne?" "It doesn't concern you." "What's this: ah, ah?" "It's amazing how many questions you ask." " I'm interested in you." " But why?" " I'm interested in you." "I like you." " In spite of what you think, I don't want to sleep with you." " You can be interested in someone without wanting to fuck them." "You're laughing at me." " I won't laugh." "Are you sure?" " Look." "I'm not laughing." " I won't laugh." "I promise." "I've been following a soccer player from Bulle." " What do you mean?" "I ran across an article on him in the newspaper." " And I went to see him play." " He's well-known and a really great player." " What's his name?" " Rui Alves." "You know him?" " No." " He's great." "And I don't know... it's strange." "He interests me." "Rui interests me." " He's a star!" "Everybody applauds when he comes onto the field." " He is the uncontested star of the Bulle soccer team!" " I want to be famous like him." " He's not great if he plays for Switzerland." " What did you say?" " Do you read the newpapers?" " You're in love." " You say he's good-Iooking." " I think you're in love." " I'm not in love!" "Idiot!" "I'm not gay anymore." " Not gay?" " Surprised?" " Just like that!" " Right." "Are you angry?" " I'm surprised." "I never have and never will feel anythng for a man." "I know what I want and that's it!" "Look at Rui." "He has a family." "He's healthy and intelligent." "I don't want to spend my life fucking nor live with some filthy man." " All men aren't filthy." "Those I've met are." " Did you look in the right place?" " It's your life!" "Do you want me to stay gay?" " Don't get upset." "I don't want you to stay gay." "But you said:" "" Why not look for healthier men "." "" Not all men are filthy. "" " Because it seems to bother you." "You're pissed off because you can't..." " We've discussed that." "It's clear that I'm no longer gay." "It was a bad phase." " And things are better now?" " Calm down." "I don't want to freak you out." " And your girlfriend?" "We got in a big fight one night." "I called her every name in the book." "I spoke badly about her boyfriend." " Boyfriend?" "Yeah." "Her boyfriend." "I said he was ugly." "That's not even true." "I hardly even looked at him." "Maybe he's okay." " Why shouldn't she have a boyfriend?" "She'll stop taking care of me." "I can't stay with her as often." " Have you spoken?" " No." " Maybe you should." " I don't know." " You're suffering." "Maybe it's good, maybe it's bad." "Perhaps life decides." "Maybe life says:" "" Loic and Marie are finished. "" "And we must each go our own way." " You can help life along." "It doesn't always know." " Life makes mistakes." " You can help it along." "I think that" "given the situation, seeing how things are going," "we shouldn't see each other." "It would be better." "I need to take distance from certain things." "That's it." " Shall we go?" " Come." " Come on!" "I wonder what's down there?" "There's nothing." "It's dark." "Come on!" "Come on!"

"Those words frighten me because" "I don't see it that way." "It's not important if" "I'm not a star, if you're not a great photographer," "if I don't play soccer all my life," "or stay in Bulle." "If I were a star, as the papers say," "I wouldn't be playing in League "B" for Bulle." "I'd be part of a big European club." " And if you were a photographer you wouldn't take pictures with a phone." " It's not an accident we met." " It was a chance in a million." " I'm from Lisbon and you're from Bulle, yet we have met."
