No! They hate each other.

You don't forget the butter knives, do you? The ones in silver! How will I make it?

- You have time! There are three days left. - It is a huge event.

You can take off the braces, right? You look like a monster!

- It was your invention. -To wear at night.

- It goes faster this way. - This tent is terrible!

You can help nature on the trot.

Nice!

- I do it! Try-on your shoes. - I did it. They are uncomfortable.

One more word and I'm not at the party.

You still ruin every event with your psychological talk.

You never get married that way.

In the absence of anything else, you throw yourself around the neck of the first best waiter.

If you don't get insights into yourself, there at the psychologist?

No.

– Can I help? - Brown and blue don't go together.

-Do you have to be condescending to dad? - We know where we have each other.

- He doesn't even notice it. MY jacket. –"Your" jacket.

"If you don't repay the debt, I intend to take action."

"I have said I have"–

–"a big customer in the works."

It's a good card.

Ulla, don't forget the meeting about the reduced percentage.

I don't feel sorry for you. You could have sat among the non-smokers.

For God's sake don't forget the meeting with my wife's lawyer.

My God!

Please, that's my bag.

Excuse me, excuse me.

Take my "halvah", it's delicious.

Thanks, that's good. Should I ask for a doctor?

No. It's mental, my sister would say. It's the tension.

/THE CRYSTAL CHRONOGRAPH CLINKS/

/THE PHONE IS RINGING/

Deborah! David!

You are in Sweden now, Deborah. Here we don't like Israel and the war.

Do not sit next to each other on the bus. Don't talk to each other. Whisper!

Yes. Bye then.

No accidents... Both planes have landed.

What they come up with!

"Now Rosha will also be an aunt, 60 years, although hard to believe"–

-"so handsome and smart..."

-Open this instead. - Not now.

"A power that you live long, fuck me."

"We wish you happiness on your birthday. Hugs and big congratulations."

Think you are here! I will be so happy!

Come on! Come in!

-Don't we have a beautiful home? -Impressive!

-We don't have parties like that in Israel. - Here we have a party all the time!

There are people who are not complicated, just nice.

We religious also have fashion stores now - scarves like these are completely modern!

-Show photos! - How about you? - I'm working on it!

I had to lie to get here.

It's over now, Dad. There's big business going on...

–Rosha, listen! He talks on! -Without stuttering?

- As a guide, you have to stop stuttering. –D-d-I did when I moved.

-Do you have braces at your age! -David, the doorbell is ringing.

-Look! -Do they have to look like little rabbis?

- He is unbeatable, my friend Mike. - It's nice to have friends.

We have many friends. At the party you get to meet them.

Mike's business is mobile phones. He has arranged these through contacts.

- We already have a lot of phones. - It's great fun to use them!

– For example, if you want to reach Freud... - I can't come in to see her!

-To mark a distance. – "A" distance... – A dumb gift!

- It's to have fun. - That's all he thinks about.

In Israel we are fighting for our lives. Israeli soldiers are being killed right now.

Whose fault is it? The religious who don't budge an inch.

You know nothing about that. – Diaspora Jews.

That all three of you are here at once!

I think of the two brothers who lost each other after the war.

One vessel is entering and one exiting the port of Haifa.

On each of their boats they see each other and shout:

Brother Jakob, brother Jakob

– Are you sleeping, are you sleeping? -Brother Jakob, brother Jakob

Don't you hear the bell, don't you hear the bell?

-Ding, ding, dong – Are you sleeping, are you sleeping?

David, can I have the plate. It was good to eat here.

So be it. We mustn't disturb the setting in there.

Excuse.

A couple of Jews met after the war at a railway station in Europe.

"Where are you going?" – "To England.

"I'm going to America." – "So far away..."

- Yes may she live, yes may she live... - No, it's the wrong day!

Yes, she will live...

Congratulations! We could not change the trip.

I said: I do not travel anywhere without having congratulated Rosha.

Wow!

Yes, yes!

-Dear Rosha! -Hello!

This beautiful home, this hospitable home, this happy home...

This happy home. How many times...

“How many times have I not… This happy and hospitable home!

- She is overexcited. It's the studies. - Ruben's mother is worse!

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

This family has it all! Youth, anger, search, love.

- Who can believe that you are turning 60?! -Not a day over 40. We toast!

I have to keep cooking. You'll excuse me, but I have to cook.

Sure, please rara! I have to go home and pack.

- Are you going now? -No...!

Bye then!

- We are going to travel. - Thank you for coming.

Need to cook more? You've been at it for a week.

I must be allowed to help. You don't have to do everything.

Ruben, no! – David...?

Dad, I'm going to show you something amazing. Come and see!

Rosha has too much to do, but she has to take care of everything herself.

It should be so...

...and then we have to have this one...so.

You shouldn't get hung up on small things.

-Don't treat dad like a child. – Men ARE children!

-Why didn't you marry Max? - Dad came first.

...converted to Catholicism. The wife was completely out of her mind!

They better lose one, than we do? Turn off the light.

"I heard your factory burned down." – "No, not this week, next!"

-What do they say? - We are coming.

He was kind and nice. They wanted security after the war.

-Why aren't you satisfied, then? - Do you have to torment mother?

-How do you look? -A mother has to endure.

- I can show them to the guests! -How is it going otherwise?

Good. There is big business going on.

The three big hotels Sheraton, Hilton, Holiday Inn...

The first time we are together. It is not forbidden to be happy.

- Shall I show the braces? -Smile with your mouth closed.

...to Disney World. There are charter trips and group trips.

It's David. - People want to be transported by bus.

We have envisioned 1,000 people per day. That will be $10,000.

- Before the costs, yes. -Okay. SEK 60,000 on a bad day.

Your big customers never show up.

Look! Flowers from Max! Then we can invite him.

He is amazing, my brother Max. He should always brag.

Finally he told his waitress that he is the best at antiques in Europe.

please dad, are you still friends?

Buy flowers for SEK 1,000...!

Freud, why does he have to be in the center?

A narcissistic disorder…

He is jealous of Max, on his poise and intelligence.

So you mean he's actually unhappy?

Wisely! That's enough.

Hard to move with all the admiration…

- I SHOULD move. - You said that last time too.

- Those boxes in your room. - Yes, when I moved to Miami...

Exactly that! Every time I was about to move, one of you stuck.

- You are spoiled! - She doesn't WANT to move.

- She is allergic and has eczema. -Haven't you used the cream?

Maybe sex would help?

–Deborah: May looks Jewish. - I'm serious, Freud.

Deborah: Although very soapy.

Sex might help...

David and...Ruben.

Rosha and Ruben...

...sitting in the tube!

My mom and dad think I'm really nice

but they don't like that I'm gay

–Deborah, how nice to see you. -Shalom!

I don't know what that word is.

You are the only one in your family who thinks to talk to me.

Max, can't you and dad be friends now that it's mom's birthday?

No, it's damn hard. He is such a damn bad businessman.

We would never have started working together.

-Forget it. We look at the pictures. - Here is my husband...

/DEBORAH PRAYS IN HEBREW/

- It is difficult to breathe. Come here. - It will pass.

Say something. "Say was."

Why didn't you hug? David and Deborah?

Didn't I? I was a little embarrassed.

Were you embarrassed when we were little too? Was it too close?

Hugs... I never got it myself. There was no time.

Just keep your mouth shut.

Then they were shot.

How did it happen? How? When?

Don't tell David and Deborah that I wake up at night.

-Why didn't you breastfeed us? - We don't play cards, I promise!

I'll make a cup of tea and come to you.

You know what I said. The border is at my door. We talk better like this.

-Why do you persist with this invention? – "This" made up.

Why didn't you breastfeed us?

- I don't remember. -Yes.

It was disgusting. It hurt.

There you see that it is possible to remember.

Say something. Now it's your turn to say something.

Mother!

Lots of samples. It will hurt.

-There is anesthesia for everything. - There will be no party.

Well then, the tests are over in one day! Of course you can have the party.

It doesn't matter. Same old people, same old china...

- The food will be good. - As always.

- The table setting is perfect. - As always.

- You will be the most beautiful of all. - I am always the prettiest of all.

-Here! David! -Yes!

-Hey, mom! - Why are you coming so late?

how are you, mom? How have you been?

-How have YOU been? - You don't look sick at all.

Have you heard the one about Moshe on his deathbed? He asks: "Is Rivka here?"

- "Yes." – "Geshke?" - "Yes." – "Shlomo?" - "Yes."

Then Moshe calls out: "So who's in the business?"

- You are beautiful! You are not sick. – Deborah, you smell like sweat.

Think I haven't had a single normal child.

Good day.

Yes, this is...the Ko-hen family, I understand.

Cohen!

- There we have Rosa. -Rosha!

I just wanted to say hi. It's boring to only socialize via x-rays.

- The samples show... - You have to do everything!

We do.

She is a refugee and came to Sweden after the war.

- 45 years ago. - You are and remain a refugee.

My wife is a normal woman, intelligent and knowledgeable...

The symptoms that Mrs. Cohen shows through the samples...

...can be due to many reasons.

I unfortunately have to keep you.

Mom, I have to show you what I bought for the party.

Oh, oh!

- They are beautiful! - Thank you.

- There will be no party. - We postponed it. I have called everyone.

-What did you say? - That there was a flood in the kitchen.

–Total flooding. - Fantastically beautiful. We try them!

No, no! David!

No, let mom...

-Who are you looking for? - My mother's doctor, Dr.

Lundgren. He's making the rounds right now.

After lunch he has a conference.

-When is it over? - I don't know.

-Tomorrow, then? - Then it's the weekend.

– Can I have his phone number? -No. - This is very special.

-Unfortunately. Do you know how many Lundgrens there are?

- Look for yourself. - What do you want?

I'll stay until you give me the number.

You must not stay here.

You better go now. The patient is getting tired.

-Have I ever been tired? -Never!

- But I will come tomorrow. -Fine. Thank you, thank you.

- I'm coming too. - No, you hate hospitals.

– Deborah, can you bring my clothes? - It is best that you go now.

David, you can buy a pair of cheap and good trousers here in Sweden.

Water the flowers. – Deborah, dad wants fish for lunch.

- Freud knows that, right? -No. She is studying for exams.

When you come home and want to have a good time, remove the white cloth.

Take another one – a yellow one. It is located in the large bureau.

The tall glasses and the purple napkins...

-Freud! - She's an adult, come on.

/THE PHONE

RINGING/ A moment.

Thank you very much.

Sister Linnea.

Well, is that you? Shouldn't you have called yesterday?

/DEBORAH BER/

Security Neurosis...

Talk about security neurosis! Some live at home even though they are of legal age.

It's Sabbath. In Jewish tradition, the family usually gathers then.

But nobody cares about this at home.

I have set the table, so we can have a nice dinner.

My name is Freud...Angelique Cohen.

I'm sorry to disturb, but it is very important.

I get that, but it's important.

If you hang up, I'll call again. I need to know how mom is.

My neurotic family didn't let you speak today.

So you can tell me how it is. I mean really...the whole truth.

Yeah...

Yeah...

Yeah...

How long, then?

Approximately?

- Now the food is ready. - Freud! - The food is on the table.

Where have you been? How strange you look.

-Where is your kippot? - You don't have to wear a kippa.

The last time Mike and I were in synagogue was on Yom Kippur.

In the United States there are synagogues where you don't see a single kippa.

/RUBEN ASKS A PRAYER/ Unbelievable that I should

have to defend the tradition in my own parental home.

One God and so many enemies. /RUBEN PRAYS/ It

should be forbidden to be a Jew and deny the religion.

I read an article about how the religious are destroying Israel.

Did you know that El Al does not fly on Saturdays? Ridiculous! You know what...?

Too bad he's started talking!

How many Zionists does it take to screw in a light bulb?

-One donates the lamp. -One screws in.

One proclaims that the Jewish people are behind the action.

I have spoken to the doctor.

He said... He said...

No bad news on the Sabbath!

- What did he say? - That we should try to have a nice summer.

Yes. Rosha needs to rest.

- She has a tumor. -There are lots of treatments.

- She will make it. - There is nothing to do, he said.

- They had never said that in the United States. - Then we go there. I sell everything!

It has spread. There is nothing to do.

I have to go out for a while.

And you are staying here this summer. Now you stop.

I knew it was so.

Hello!

Hello! Can I have a whiskey, please? Great!

I don't like music.

-What do you do for a living? -Psychology.

-What you do with your head disturbs the music. - That's the point.

It looks vulgar.

- I don't like music. -Why are you here, then?

I want to lose my virginity.

you are funny although the mouth is like a line.

- I have braces. - May I see!

It looks sexy! Postmodernist.

Shall we dance? Yes, we do!

-Come on! - I am not interested.

- I am not interested. - Please.

- It's busy. - It's not at all!

- I'm busy. - You are not at all!

-What's the matter with you? - I want you. I want you!

I am not interested in academics with problems. Why would I lie?

- You are complicated. I feel it. - You feel wrong.

Life doesn't have to be complicated. It can be nice too.

What is it?

My mother is dying.

- They are tears of joy. - Yes, the family is a torture chamber.

- Get off! - Drive.

Get off, I said!

Could you please get off the motorcycle?

Why do you live like this? /KATT JAMAR/ -I like trains.

- Ugh...

-Don't you like cats? -No.

-What is your name, by the way? -Angelique.

-Freud. -Freud?

-What are you doing? -A bed for you. I'm going to sleep.

Do you think I'm abandoning my family on "Shabbes"...

...sets me off on a life-threatening ride on a motorcycle...

...gets thrown off and picked up...

...and comes all the way out here to a filthy tower–

–with a disgusting cat, without sleeping with you?

- Do it now. - You don't want to sleep with me.

- Do it now. -Get off my bed.

- You want... I mean I want. -Why is that?

- You want too. -How do you know that?

You have a hard time with women, I feel it.

The attraction to trains is a symbol…

/PHONE SIGNAL/ What was that?

– The phone! - I don't have a phone.

/PHONE SIGNAL/ –Hello?

–David: Where are you, Freud?

You're not doing anything stupid now, are you?

Come on, let's do it.

-Wait. You don't want this. -Yes!

- You're just a sad little girl. - I want very much. Come on!

I want, I want!

We're going to turn off the light. No, by the way...

- God, how nice! -Take it easy.

- It was great. -Relax.

I am completely relaxed.

Hello? It's Freud Cohen. What about my mother?

Huh?

Yeah...

Yes?

Really... Yeah.

Really...

That was the worst thing I've ever heard.

For 25 years I have listened to her anxiety attacks, held her hand.

.. -and told her there are no Germans there or here or anywhere.

Not in the chandelier and not in the painting.

I have fought World War II––with the help of

card games, walks, quarrels and conversations.

Now they say at the hospital that she has slept all night on valium.

It went great.

David...

You scared me. I thought you were sleeping.

When are you moving home?

You're wasting your life over there on the beach.

Empty, shallow...

No, it isn't. It's amazing.

Just the climate. You would recover in a week there.

I know you think this thing with Mike and me...

He's actually quite a funny…

And Mike's mom...

are you sleeping

are you sleeping

Huh?

-What did you say? - I will look at the midnight sun.

- I'm coming along! - I like being alone.

-No! I'm coming along. -Never!

Give me the keys.

Ouch!

-Where have you been? -Went HD and fucked.

She has received too much love.

-What do you do for a living? - Cheers me up!

Appropriate time! Your wonderful mother is depressed and sick.

"Your lovely mother"? Now it is appropriate to be well-mannered.

I had to take all the crap during your wild years.

Have you thought about how dad made the bail?

He had to take huge loans from Max, and sell half the business.

- The tumor started to grow. -Which tumor?

- Mom's. It's your fault. - You don't know that!

Try to understand what she means.

The tumor started growing five years ago. What happened five years ago?

- I want to see you without the wig. - Stop now!

Say: I was in custody in Athens for possession of hashish.

Bullshit.

Another false extreme was that they were not allowed to call you on the Sabbath.

Peter went to the synagogue every day instead of taking care of the children.

He became Orthodox and is now called Abraham.

And you start putting on a wig, when you have grown up in freedom!

Berra - do you remember him? Take off the wig.

Stop! Stop now.

I'm not feeling well. I'm actually not feeling well.

I am with children. I don't want it.

- Have an abortion, then! - I can't.

I can't have that.

Your mother is suffering.

- She has always done that. -How are you?

- It is your inheritance. - I'm shitting on my heritage.

- Me too. -Is that how you feel?

I will come soon!

I'm coming now!

- A type like that is not kind. -Is Abraham kind?

-What are you going to do? -Look at the midnight sun!

Can't you get health?

-And Rosha? - I'm not going to die with her.

I'm not going to die with her.

-Look what I brought you. - Take out the bed.

- Shall I take out the bed? -Yes.

- Then we'll see... - It's nice.

- This is going really well. -Yes.

- Is it good like this, mother? -Fine.

- Lucky there is no one in it. - I want to be alone.

You will see! I was lucky and made it to Kosher life.

- I bought good kosher sausage. - I have no appetite.

- You have to get some nutrition. - I am not fond of kosher sausages.

You and dad are Sunday Jews. No religion.

-Freud lives like a goy. -Where is she?

She's gone on vacation, and she hasn't brought her phone with her.

Freud here and Freud there... And I give you food.

She wants to prove that she is free. She will be worried all the time.

Then I brought this one instead of...

-And this one. - No, it's not mine.

-Is it mine? -Yes.

- I don't want it. -And a pair of soft slippers.

I have never seen such hideous slippers. Take them away, Deborah.

I hang everything up, mom.

What are you up to?

Did you come here to sit on the phone? For my money?

You can't pay it back.

Nothing will come of your business.

Failed! Franchising of buses, thousands of dollars...

I haven't believed it for a minute.

David, come home.

David... Stop playing. Stop lying to yourself.

come home - I need you in the store.

- I don't like antiques. It's dusty, dark, ugly.

It's not my style. Not my life. Take care of that one.

It is genuine. - I can't leave the store to Max.

- I don't want it. Do you remember how much fun we had? You helped me count the money.

I am homosexual.

Why can't you accept that?!

You have received all the conditions! Better economy, better education!

And now you're dancing around Disneyland like a ridiculous gay!

I AM a ridiculous gay!

Why did Moses walk with the Jews through the Red Sea?

He was ashamed to walk through town. - Fuck you!

- Why are we staying here? - We're going to rest.

I have hay fever. I thought we were going along the sea.

- The forest is nice. -"The forest is beautiful"...

- I don't eat that. -Why not?

Pig food! It's not religious or anything, but that's pig food.

- Nah! -You can wash yourself at a restaurant.

Washing is done in the lake.

Ahh!

-Come on! It's nice! -No!

Great!

I like you.

I like you.

We're leaving now.

How it itches.

Ants! /SHOUTS LOUDLY/

– Ants! -What is it?

I knew that… We should have checked into the motel.

She will die...

It is not wise.

She will die.

How was it? Did you have a good time?

- I never have a good time, you know that. -What a pity.

I'm in pain.

Mom...

My mother is in pain.

- She got what she should have. -Give her more.

The doctors have indicated the dose.

They don't care about her do they? Give her more!

Take me home, Freud. I don't fit in here.

- Take me home, Freud. - Mother, you are sick.

- I want to go home. - Mom, you can't take it.

- I want to go home now. - Mother...

- Mother... - I want to go home.

-Then you have to do exactly as I say. -Yes.

-What are you doing? -Packing my mother's things.

Show me how to do.

/ROSHA GRUNTS/ It'll be fine, Mom.

- Home now. - Rest a bit now, then we'll go home.

The pearls... I will wear the pearls.

- Can you lift your head? -No.

Gently!

Good.

Hello there. That must not happen.

She doesn't get any treatment. Give me morphine for a week.

It must not happen like this. Drive your mother back.

I'm going home now. Do you understand?

The bed... Where's my bed?

I'll go to the store and check.

-Good. -Sit still and don't move!

No.

-Still! -No. No...

No, no...

Excuse me, I'm going to get mom's bed.

–Rosha, are you home? - I want my bed.

- Max insisted. - The customer wants it.

Large pieces of furniture are hard to sell and we get paid a lot.

For that price, you should have a perfect piece of furniture.

I'll make sure it's polished, so that you get a perfect bed.

I have called for a new bed. A practical bed.

You want revenge, to the last.

I wasn't exactly 20 years old... I couldn't wait any longer.

We call. It takes a week, ten days... It depends.

I want my bed.

Now that you are home, you will be well. You need to eat something.

Practical, eh? Here you can have food and books.

When you have recovered, come to Miami.

Miami is plastic. Her daughter lives in Jerusalem - the most beautiful place on earth.

Choose your own food and you will be healthy.

There are courses against the fear of flying.

Try this one, then. Try it!

She lies uncomfortably. We take the pillow.

At least you have to drink something.

- She lies uncomfortably. -Juice! You must drink something.

- It's because she sits uncomfortably. - Mom, you have to eat something.

- A little chicken. - I'm going to the kosher store.

- It is closed. - The one at Ica - the ready-grilled one.

But go now!

Go, then!

My mother is very sick, and that is the only thing she wants.

- My wife and I eat half each. - Chicken is the only thing she wants.

It is against my faith to buy such food, but when someone is sick...

- Was it good, mother? - Yes, it's actually good.

Go, everyone.

Mom, do you want to talk to the rabbi?

The rabbi? He has a speech impediment.

I sit and think about this shoe store thing.

It's clear that we could have kept it, but it didn't hold up.

We have had a good time. Don't we have it? We have had a good time.

Yes, we've had a good time. We have had a good time. "Sehr gut."

It will be difficult for you, but you can do it. The children exist.

Remember that brown and blue do not go together. Skip the evening sandwich...

- Can't I sleep with you? - Ruben...

No...

/PHONE SIGNAL/

I will...

Freud: You just got a shot.

You get another one. Throw in the towel, just.

I can't give you the syringe otherwise!

Dress me up.

-Dress me. - Mother...

This?

This one, then?

No.

- This one, then? -Yes.

The shoes...

- Mother, you are lying on the bed. – "Shoes!"

Music.

We'll have music.

-Say: I have a tumor. -Music...

Say: I have cancer.

It's about getting her to eat and making her happy. We must have a party.

- There will be no party. - Well, I've put it off for a week.

Happy? are you happy

/DEBORAH PRAYS/

I have decided to have an abortion.

Good.

Mother? Mom...

Mother.

I'm going to go home now. To Miami.

Can you draw the curtain? It's too bright.

How many times have I said it's too bright?

There was no contract for me and Mike.

I had hoped...

...so that you would think I was good.

What time is it, anyway?

I would like some rosehip juice.

Each time I have hoped as much that you would accept me.

Have you visited Kappahl's men's department yet?

Mom, I'm going home now. I'm not coming back.

Hello Mike. Thank you for the gifts.

-David... - Mother.

Go out into the hall and open the closet at the far end.

There hangs a pair of nice beige trousers that dad has never worn.

If Mike is a size 50...

...then he can have them.

Hello. Is it Berra?

It's Deborah.

Yes.

Can I come over for a little while?

Etc. Okay. Bye then.

Are you okay now, then?

Do you remember the night in Athens?

Do you remember? I had to sit three years in the house because you stabbed.

I wrote a lot of letters but you never answered.

Sorry.

Forgive me so terribly. Forgive me.

How are you yourself, then?

Huh?

- I'm fine. - Are you feeling well?

Hello.

-Is Freud at home? - No, no one is home.

Except for Rosha, of course.

It's such a shame for the whole family.

"Warm and safe and creative..."

"Everything that makes life happy."

"Answer to Dancing on Roses.

"It's hard to get used to yourself."

"It's hard to get rid of yourself."

"He who does so shall never be forsaken."

"Whoever does that must always remain in solidarity."

"The impractical is the only practical in the long run."

It's nice to have you here when the others are gone.

They are so busy with all their emotions.

I have been careless.

I never trained for anything.

And this… This...

I have never shown this to the world. These are operations that the Germans paid for...

...for what I had to endure during the war.

I have received money from them.

Year in and year out. Read.

Read another poem.

-Tell me about Mike. - Half an hour before the plane leaves...?

- Sorry, David. -What the hell should I say?

We met at Disney World. We both cracked extra.

I was Mickey Mouse and he was Kajsa Anka.

But I didn't know that then, for I did not know him.

It was an extremely hot day and I was sweating profusely.

I wanted to take off the suit and went to the dressing room.

I took off my head and…

I stood there neck, and that's when Kajsa Anka came in.

I felt a little embarrassed and a little scared.

I didn't know who it was. All I could come up with was:

She just rocked on…

/FREUD SCREAMS LOUD/

- I wanted to be a free person. - I understand.

- I have been too hard, too strict. - You are a hard and strict girl.

I regret it.

You? I want you to meet her.

-Okay. - Are you coming home with me?

-Okay. - Do you do it?

Why are you coming only now? You've missed out on all the good food.

Do you have braces?

...tumbalalaika tumbala, tumbala, tumbalalaika

Tumbalaika, shpil balalaika...

Bye then!

- There is my mother! -She there?

Shall we not say hello?

-Hello! -Shalom!

Hello.

Goldberg!

This is my mother Rosha. - Adrian.

Rosha Cohen.

She's not even happy for me.

-Her cursed parties! - It might be her last.

Hello!

-Hello! Vera. -Hello. - Come to me when it's over.

- Oh, how handsome he is. Is he... - Yes, he is Jewish.

Music!

A called night, a nebldike finster umetum

Mom!

- She is sick. - No, I'm not sick.

- I'm going to die. - I knew she was bad!

Open the wardrobe! Well, open, open! Take it all out!

Thanks Max!

-Give away everything I have. - We refuse, dear Rosha!

- You will get well! - I decide!

- I'll take that dress. - I wear red better than you.

– Herman, look at that painting! - Actually, it's not really yours.

– Can you take everything? - Do it! Take everything!

Fuck that one!

I've always wanted that dress.

Mom, look!

Yes...

Without the braces, you would actually be quite beautiful.

- I will remove it tomorrow. - Well...

Mom...

I had an abortion the day before yesterday.

Well...

You have given birth to enough children. Sweet children, Deborah.

Don't you get upset? Abraham will be terribly upset.

- He will not forgive it. -Why should you tell me, then?

I have to tell you. He knows I was with children.

Say you've had a miscarriage. Lie!

Yes, take! Take, just!

-Mother? -Yes.

Mom, can't you forgive me?

-For what then? -All those wild years.

It wasn't that dangerous.

I never asked you about the time in prison in Athens.

- I have never asked you. - I don't remember that.

Well, you don't remember? No.

Go, everyone.

Go now!

Well, you don't remember?

"Ich verstehe." I see.

"Woman in her 50s seeks man who lives in three worlds:"

"Dreams, poetry, passion."

Dreams, poetry, passion...

Sh... She sleeps so heavily.

- I'm just going to show my teeth. -Show me instead.

Release!

Mother!

I have always loved you.

Mom...

Ouch!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother...!

/DOOR BELL/

I would have let her keep the shoe business, even though it wasn't doing well.

- Yes, it was stingy and selfish. - It wasn't that dangerous, was it?

She always had something going on.

I should have come more often with the children, even if Peter didn't want it.

You should not have married religiously.
