"Here's the letter left by your husband." "You can read it." "It's embarrassing..." "What's embarrassing?" "It's embarrassing that you've read it." "My husband has already filed a complaint against that pig, that piece of shit, that arse hole..." "The police had already questioned Edouard Laporte." "Our daughter was questioned..." "Then nothing." "There was no foIIow-up afterwards." "It's your fault that Jacques is dead..." "I don't have the strength to go it alone." "There's no one left... apart from my brother... who's never there." "He's always abroad." "Marco SiIvestri, he's your brother?" "The letter's addressed to him." "Marco and Jacques were like brothers." "They met at the naval academy." "Marco introduced me to Jacques." "Come on, keep it together." "Think of your daughter." "You have to keep going for her sake." "could you come up to the bridge quickly, there's an urgent call for you." "BASTARDS" "PARIS, ONE MONTH LATER" "Bye, honey." " Good morning, Ma'am." " Good morning." "Wait, there's some mail for you." "So they've sold the old lady's apartment?" "No, they're renting it in the meantime." "well, that's what my aunt told me." "And how's your aunt doing?" "She's doing fine..." "Anyway it's kind of you to take over." "It's normal, it's family!" "Bye, honey." "See you this evening." "Thank you." "E. Laporte and his Saint-Tropez summers" "The Laporte case will be turned over to the tax department" "News scoop :" "Edouard and RaphaeIIe appear" "Jerk me off." "Let's see." "Good morning." "What's wrong with the bike?" "The chain has come off?" "I..." "I think so." "Take this." "Here." "Thanks!" "I'm here for you." "talk to me, Justine." "talk to me." "I Iove him," "I want to see him!" "tell my mother I have to get out of here." "Take a seat." "Is she your daughter?" "Yes... and do you have any children?" "Yes, two girls." "Their mother looks after them." "So, Mr. SiIvestri, we need to discuss your niece." "One could hardly say this young lady looked after herself..." "alcohol, drugs..." "But what's worse is the sexual aspect..." "Abuse, torture." "It's going to take time." "I've spoken to her mother, but for the time being she just won't listen..." "Listen to what?" "We're not there yet, but we'II have to consider operating" "An operation?" "To repair her vagina..." "Hi Dad..." "I'm at the far end of the station, so..." "Right next to it." "I waited for a while on the platform, you didn't show up..." "So actually would you mind hurring, because I'm waiting and I'm freezing..." "I dunno... whatever." "Either call me back, or whatever, but hurr!" "Excuse me." "Audrey!" "Where have you been?" "I've been waiting for ages!" "We said wait at the platform!" " I don't care if you were waiting." " It was a misunderstanding." "calm down..." "hello, to start with!" "hello!" "I was waiting..." "I've been waiting for ages freezing my arse off." "Fine." "Let's go?" "I haven't come to Paris to be treated like shit!" "OK!" " How does that look?" " Yeah it's great!" "Turn around," "It looks great on you!" " beautiful" " Thanks, Dad." "Can you open?" " Good evening." " Good evening." "This way." " Good evening." " Good evening." "The girls love sleeping on the floor, they think it's pretty cool." "Audrey's come to spend the weekend with me..." " Say hello." " hello." "Her younger sister Anouk has stayed in Vendée, she's got flu... with their mother..." "I'm opening a bottle of wine." "would you Iike a glass?" "No, thanks." "My son is waiting." "I promised to watch a DVD with him." " I've washed it." " Thanks." "Goodbye." "Sandra, Iet's get straight to the point :" "you're aware of the situation." "You've got 45 days." "Not a day more, not a day less, in order to declare bankruptcy." "Beyond that, the magistrate, the commercial court judge, your creditors, will be on to you." "I'II remind you that you're not only his wife... but above all his business partner." "And if you don't do this, you are then personally liable, which means, in no uncertain terms, that they can take the factor and even your home." "Even your home!" "And Laporte in all this?" "Listen, we've discussed him a hundred times." "What's Laporte got to do with this?" "Laporte is not your business partner!" "Your husband's business partner is you!" "Did Laporte lend or give your husband money?" "Are there false acknowledgments of debt?" "We don't know what went on between those two." "There's no way to prove it?" "What am I supposed to do about it?" "You want me to file a complaint to the magistrate?" "On what grounds?" "You don't really believe your instinct is proof?" "You can't accuse people like that!" "I can't file that complaint." "I won't do it, I've already told you." "You won't take advice..." "Yet you're alone in all this." "totally alone." "I saw that you refused your share of the inheritance, that you're not part of the company." "And that..." "It's too late, but maybe if you had been, you could've avoided this 'shipwreck', to use a term that you're familiar with." "For that I would have needed some business sense, which I lack." "So that's why when we divided up my father's estate," "I gave my shares to my sister and Jacques, my brother-in-Iaw." "And she managed to persuade him to take over the company." "He ran the business... and I opted for a different Iife-styIe." "Right." " Goodbye." " Goodbye, Sir." "Good luck, Sandra" " I'II get a taxi." " No, I'II take you home." "Come on." "Why didn't you tell me that the business was going so badly?" "How often did that guy ball you out?" "Why did you borrow so much off him?" "Why didn't you tell me?" "And Justine?" "Do you intend to tell me about her?" "I'm listening." "Go ahead." "How could I talk about her?" "That bastard had used her as a sex object." "I'm so ashamed." "Marco, I'm so ashamed." "Stop repeating that." "Cut the "I'm so ashamed" bullshit." "Cut it out!" "I talked to her doctor." "You ring me and make me come back from the other side of the world." "I drop everything!" "And you hide things from me!" "What's going on?" "tell me!" "I need to know for God's sake!" "I wish I were dead." "Cut the bullshit." "Stop." "Take care of yourself, honey." "See you tomorrow!" "Bastard." "A shoddy job, it hasn't even been ironed." "Don't you think a nice shirt like that deserves better care?" " Do you Iike it here?" " Yeah..." "I wanted to see how you lived." "I have to pay the electricity today and the insurance..." "I need you and you haven't phoned back." "I don't know what to do, call me back, Marco." "Today at 5:09pm." "Hi, Dad." "Mum wants to know if we come to you or you come to us for Anouk's birthday." "Love you." "It's just a sabbatical year." "And everone is entitled to one, it's important in a man's life." "One year..." "Anyway, I won't be changing my mind, mademoiselle Journey, so..." "Anyway, isn't that what life insurance is about?" "Are you really sure you want to cash it in?" "Yes, sure." "will you give me the papers to sign?" "It's a guarantee, it shouldn't be used to fund your kids' child support benefit." "I don't understand, you had a good job, a stable position." "Are you sure this is a wise move with the recession?" "Listen, Iet's not waste time, just give me the papers." "Where do I sign?" "How's things?" "She's a beauty!" "Oh, yes..." "Thank you." "Cheers!" "Do you enjoy life on the tankers?" " Yes, I enjoy it." " Christ, what a job!" "So stressful." "I have to admit, I miss it a bit at times." " So you're into cars now." " Yes." " hello." " hello." " Nina." " pleased to meet you." "Are you OK?" "But you haven't entirely given up the boats." "There are some there too." "If you want to go out one day, it'd be a pleasure to take you." "Sure, I'd really like that one day." "How're you getting home?" "I'II get the train." "You've changed styles?" "It doesn't look like it did you much good." "What didn't?" "The cheap and tacky quality." "Thanks." "Here." "Dad bought it." "What is it?" "What am I supposed to do with it?" "Hang on to it, please." "You'II need it." " Here." " Thanks." "We'II see about Justine later." "What's that for?" "To hook up a camera?" "The clients bring them, and take them away when they're done." "They're for the private parties." "Visiting hours are over, Sir." "Dr. Béthanie has left." "I'd Iike to have a word with my niece." " No, Dr. Béthanie has left." " I'II be one second..." "No, it's too late." "I won't be long." "Come on, please." "Our patients are fragile." "You'II see her tomorrow." "Bye, honey!" " hello." " hello." "I'd Iike to see the watch in the window, the one with the black strap." "Sure." "It's a recent acquisition." "A tropic diving strap, waterproof." "A ver fine piece of work." "TO MY SON WHO SAILS THE SEAS" "TabarIy had one exactly the same." " Thanks." " You're welcome." " Goodbye." " Goodbye." "I find it hard to believe there's any love..." "There never was." "You're not even part of his life." "He treats you Iike a concubine." "He's turned you into a whore." "I don't feel like he treats me like a whore, as you put it." "He was younger when I first met him." "He was handsome." "He gave me the confidence I never had." "I had no ties at all, I was floating." "Then I found myself pregnant with Joseph." "What about you?" "You live in a crappy apartment." "You pawn off your watch, you wear 400-doIIar shirts..." "I know nothing about you, I don't judge." "No." "I also sold my car." "You're beautiful." "It's Marco." "I won't be able to take the girls this week-end." "I know I promised but I'II explain to them." "I'II call later." "Bye." "Daddy, it's the man who fixed my bike." "Oh, right." "That's kind... thank you." "Edouard." "Marc." "Let's go." "Can I offer you a coffee?" " What do you reckon, Joseph?" " Yes." "Thanks, I'd also like a Perrier, please." " You've got a beautiful apartment!" " Yes, it's huge." "It's Haussmannien." "And the area is great too." "The park Monceau is right next door, which is perfect for Joseph." "Go now!" "Excuse me, I have to go." "You must have a great view from up there." "Yes, it's a great view." "Thanks." "Isn't it odd, that guy renting a big empty apartment?" "How come you're so well informed?" "It's odd, that's all!" "Do you think it's normal?" "I have no idea." "Good night." "Good night, honey." "You mustn't give in to him, he has to be in bed by 9 o'cIock." "please..." "We're late." "You're waiting for me?" "Just for a minute, I have to free the baby-sitter." "What's so great about your life?" "You know nothing..." "You know nothing about my Iife!" "Yes." "You're not answering anymore?" "I was asleep." "Take care." "Have a safe journey." "Thanks a Iot." "Thanks." "You can't stay, Joseph is up." "I don't see a problem with that," "He likes me, doesn't he?" " Morning." " hello." "hello?" "Yeah..." "OK, fine..." "See you later." "I'd rather you left." "That's fine, I have to go anyway." "My boss is the biggest ship owner in Panama." "But you know that." "Just to remind you that you abandoned the ship and it will not be easy for you to find a real job now." "You have family, kids..." "In fact, they don't really want to know what happened." "They just trust you." "So..." "What's with the hand?" "Nothing, it's..." "Had a fight?" "Yes, fight." "For what?" "For fight." "Everything is a fight, all the time... so take care." "Think about it." "I'm gonna think about it." "Good morning, Mr SiIvestri." "Good morning, doctor." "Justine was ver agitated." "Yesterday a young man I've never seen before came to see her." "I refused..." "This morning, the nurses found her room empty." "She escaped, I preferred to inform the police." "That was quite unnecessar to get the police involved!" "Is that how you protect them?" "If you'd only done your job beforehand..." "it was before..." "We pay enough as it is!" "You're responsible." "You neglect your duty." "In terms of neglected duty, you're hardly one to talk." "She's underage, you're her guardian." "CouIdn't you tell that my daughter would run away?" "Anyway, she's always done that." "She has no money, she has nowhere to go." "She'II come back." "Stop it!" "hello?" "Justine, call me back." "Can I drop you off?" "In fact, it's precisely what I was hoping." "What?" "To get a ride with you." "You've hurt yourself?" "Yes." "I imagined a ship's captain would be more serene!" "I came back for them, doctor." "For my kid sister, for my niece." "How can you expect me to be calm and serene?" "What with this suicide business?" "Justine is a Iong way from sorting her problems out." "It seems obvious that part of her problems come from the family." "Some kind of dysfunction." "I've broken off from my family." "From my sister, from Jacques." "Her husband, who was my best friend." "I know ver little about them." "Less and less." "I cut a Iot of ties." "That's what the navy is for." " Good evening." " Good evening, Sir." " I'm going to the suburbs." " Which address, Sir?" "I'II show you, I know the way." "Here's a 1 00 euros." "And you'II have another 1 00 euros on the return trip." "OK, Iet's go!" " You'II wait, won't you?" " Yes, Sir." " You wait!" " OK!" "What are you doing?" "I was sick of the decoration..." "So I cleaned it up to start afresh." "For a change of style." "You don't like women?" "Get out!" "Get out." "Justine?" "Let's go!" "Bastard!" " You're not asleep?" " There you go!" " gently, gently..." "hello." " hello." "Hi Joseph!" " Goodbye." " Bye, have a nice day." " hello!" " hello." " I came in the other day about a watch." " Yes, of course I remember." " In fact, I'II take it." " please come in." "hello." " Is Guy there?" " Yeah, sure." "Can I come in?" "Thanks." "I'm..." "I'm tired." "I need a car, I don't have the money and..." "I felt you could help me out." "well, you can take the alfa back, I don't need it right now." "Yeah but the problem is I don't have the money, so..." "That's OK, we'II work something out later." "Hang on, I'II put you on to someone." "Yes, hello, we can meet up at 31 rue du Chaudron, it's in the 1 8th arrondissement." " It's a cyber café." " OK." "Hi." "I've got some pictures for you." "If you want to see them, you have to pay." "I'II bring you Justine afterwards." "It'II be 5000." "I don't have 5000 on me, I've got 3000." "There's a bank nearby." "You can go and withdraw." "I want to see the pictures first." "OK." "Come on." " Have you seen Joseph?" " No!" " hello." " hello." "Joseph left earlier on with his father." "For the horse riding club party." "Yes... of course, thank you." " Goodbye." " Goodbye." "Edouard, it's me..." "call me back please, I..." "I don't understand what's going on." "I'II be back." "hello, Mr. Barraut." "It's RaphaeIIe." "could I speak to Joseph and his father, please?" "You were on your own today?" "Ah right." " hello." " hello." "I was given this envelop I was told to give it to you." "Thank you." " Have a nice day." " Thank you, you too." "RaphaeIIe, from now on Joseph will be living with me." "Later you will be able to see him, but not right now." "I know you're screwing Marco." "That's your business, I don't care." "But I want to protect Joseph from that man's harmful presence." "And from his sick family." "I know who Marco is." "And why he has come here." "I Iove Joseph, he is my last offspring." "I intend to protect him from what I consider a threat." "I'II carr it for you." " Thanks for all..." " Sure." " Give Joseph a kiss from me." " OK." "Come on... again..." "Come back on that course." "Can you see the thing up front there?" "So stay on that course." "Go stand over there, you're the one who's..." "Go over... go over there." "See, you're steering the boat." "smile!" "Great." "Sandra?" " Where's my sister?" " At the house." " What are you doing here?" " We're taking all this stuff to the dump." "Who's that?" "Here." "That's your daughter." "This, that's Laporte..." "Here." "And who's this?" "It's Jacques!" "And you had no idea?" "This is my family?" "Is that it?" "You don't understand." "You don't understand..." "It all went horribly wrong." " You don't understand..." " Get up, get up..." "Get up, you make me sick." "You can't... you weren't there!" "I'm glad I divorced." "My girls won't be contaminated!" "Open up." "Open up, Marco!" "He took Joseph!" "He took Joseph, because of you." "What's going on?" "I don't understand." "What's happened to Joseph?" " What are you going on about?" " He took him... because of you." "calm down, calm down." " Let go of me." " What has happened to Joseph?" "What's all this about Joseph?" "It's because I slept with you." " You used me." " I had my reasons for doing so." "Why did you do it?" "You shouldn't have anything to do with that guy, he's the bastard." "He's the bastard." "I wasn't using you." " Stay." " Let me go." "Stay." "Let me go." "Mummy?" "Mummy, where are you?" "What's this?" "OK, go on." "What else do you want?" "Wait, I'II take care of that." "Can I bring my bike?" "I'II get you another one!" "Go on, take it." "Come on..." " Hop into the car." " Thank you." "My sweetheart." "Joseph wanted to pick up his bike and give you a kiss." "We're heading south this evening." "Tomorrow we'II be in Geneva to see his new school." "Come on." "Joseph, say goodbye to your mother, we're going." "Come along." "Don't fight me." "Don't you touch Joseph." "Stop." "What is it?" "A few pictures." " Can I have a look?" " Yes." "I'd rather watch them with you." "Fine."
