All language subtitles for RIGET I - 1 The Unheavenly Host (Lars von Trier 1994) EN-FR-ES [SubRipper.com].en

The ground beneath the
Rigshospitalet is old bog.

The bleaching ponds were once located here.

Here the bleachers went and moistened
their canvases in the shallow water -

- to add to bleaching.

The evaporation shrouded
the place in a permanent fog.

Later, the Rigshospitalet was built here -

- and the bleachers were replaced
by doctors and researchers -

- and the country's best brains
and most advanced technology.

And as the crowning glory, the
place was called the Kingdom.

Now life had to be defined -

- and ignorance and superstition
could never again shake science.

Perhaps the arrogance
has become too much -

- and the consistent
denial of the spiritual -

- for it is as if the cold and
the damp have returned.

Small signs of fatigue
are beginning to show -

- in the otherwise solid
and modern buildings.

No one alive knows yet -

- but the gate to the Kingdom
has begun to open again.

Krog, has anyone come in
from outside the ambulance?

I have no idea about that.

It's a strange thing.
See for yourself.

There you are.

Yeah, that was good, wasn't it?

Do you think it's weird too?

She's in there.
I think it's one of yours.

- Good evening.
- Good evening.

Jørgen Krogshøj, I am a neurosurgeon.

My name is Sigrid Drusse.
Are you a skilled doctor?

There's nothing wrong with that. I can see
here that there is nonsense with the hand?

Yes. It spins and sticks
and I can't close it -

- and I have to use
it when I commute.

The patient complains
of a stinging sensation.

Well, Drusse, here you are again.

Yes, it's something with the arm.

I'm going up to neurosurgery.
It is very difficult to get in there.

- Greet my son when he meets.
- I'll do that.

- Dave.
- Dave.

Someone was crying.

It was probably from the children's
department. They just came by.

No, it was like someone was
sitting on top of the elevator.

Well, well.

- Is this the neurosurgery department?
- Yes.

It is very difficult
to get in here.

The little girl has made
herself known to the old lady.

Where did it happen?

In the elevator.

- The elevator?
- Mmm.

My name is Helmer, chief physician Helmer.

That tile needs to be fixed immediately.

Otherwise, an accident will occur.
May I speak to your boss?

The boss isn't there right now.

I think we have to state that Chief
Medical Officer Helmer is not coming.

Chief physician Helmer is
currently under a lot of work pressure.

As chief physician Helmer
has no neurological disorder -

- is his condition irrelevant
to our morning conference.

I admitted a Mrs. Drusse with a slight
paralysis of the right hand and arm.

I would suggest CT scan.

Okay.

You know very well that only the
attending physician can order a CT scan.

Should the hospital come to a standstill -

- just because chief physician Helmer
has chosen to sleep over himself?

Yes! And when does
your boss like to come?

I heard something about a water
pipe that had broken this morning.

The water runs out
under the parking lot.

Excuse me, but aren't you
the head of the sleep lab?

- Does that interest you?
- You can say that.

- Where is the morning conference?
- It's over.

We didn't think you were
coming, so I thought...

Meant!

When Professor Moesgaard has a
private clinic, the following applies:

The morning conference
will begin when I arrive -

- and it ends when I leave.

Sit down.
Regarding last night...Any new admissions?

The door!

Newly admitted?

I admitted a Mrs. Drusse with
paralysis in her right hand and arm.

She is...

She is...?
What the hell is she?

She has been sent for a CT scan.

What did they say?

Mrs Drusse has been
sent for a CT scan.

CT scan? Aha!

There is one person
here at the hospital -

- who is authorized
to order a CT scan.

In all humility, it
is the head doctor.

I just meant...

Meant!

Don't you know the word budget responsibility?

Should I spell it?

B-u-d...

Rich mother!

How deep...

... can you humiliate a person -

- in this cursed country?

- Can you answer that, Rigmor?
- No, Stig.

Would you like to cancel
this CT scan immediately?

It can not be done.

I think she's already
in the scanner.

Mother!

You can not do that.

You promised not to do it again.
The hospital is my workplace.

Yes, but this time
I'm really sick.

Come on, mom.

Porter, just help
lay the patient down.

- Ow, ow!
- Be careful with the patient.

Then go away.

But...

- We're driving in.
- Yes please.

Good day, Helmer.

It is good that you are here.

Einar, something serious has happened.
Something very serious.

Reserve doctor Krogshøj
has ordered a CT scan.

Sickness is a sad thing,
but we must get used to it -

- that we are in a hospital,
however difficult it may appear.

You know what a
blessing a CT scan can be.

But when has a reserve doctor
been able to make a decision to use it?

Only the chief physician can do that.

Now I demand that this has
professional consequences.

Helmer, take it easy.

Krogshøj may not be
the world's best doctor -

- but he is good for us to have.

A reserve doctor -

- who makes the decision
about the CT scan, it's ridiculous.

You haven't been here that long.

I don't think civil service
cases should be brought.

I like Krogshøj a lot,
and you probably will too.

Sit down and see.

What do you say to this logo?

I have called our cooperation plan
Operation Morgenluft. Here you go.

We must be open to new ideas -

- both as regards the relationship
with the employees and the patients.

I myself think that the sun
kind of symbolizes all that.

Yes... Is it Operation Morgenluft?

- Do you like it?
- No.

Wouldn't it be a good idea
to get some stickers printed?

Well... maybe...
You're the boss, after all.

You know why
Helmer is here, right?

There is not one hospital
in Sweden that will hire him.

A researcher in his department
achieved some cool results.

Helmer published them
as if they were his own.

- It's probably a rumour.
- God, it's not.

Moesgaard read his article
in "Lancet" and wanted him.

I don't think he wrote it, but
Moesgaard doesn't see anything.

- Nice smock.
- It's exactly the same as yours.

It suits you better.
Are you doing anything tonight?

I have some things
I need to read.

It's not healthy with
all that research.

Or maybe it's personal.
Do you feel repulsed?

You are always
busy when I ask you.

And where does the reserve
doctor intend to disappear to?

I had to go home to
bed after a 12 hour shift.

When deciding on a CT scan -

- you should also decide to
come to the X-ray conference.

Now we want to clean this room -

- and all of us who are here
for the noise of the living.

Are there any spirits present?

If there are any spirits present -

- then make yourself known.

Yes.

Yes.

We can just get an urgent
CT scan of Mrs Drusse with us.

Forgive a small, ignorant man -

- before we go any further,
because I'm so curious.

How much does such a CT scan cost?

It's pretty cheap, isn't it?

It is quite expensive.

Well, pretty expensive!

- And how much is it?
- DKK 10,000

10,000!

A pure gift here during
the economic crisis.

Shall we see if anything
has been left on the plate?

No I thought so.

Not even a fly shit.

Here we have, Mr. reserve doctor...

... an illustration of
the brain on a simulant.

To stick into the
little memory book.

There is somebody. There is somebody.

He seeks one in this circle.

Where is she here?

He is near now...

... small...

... the hair...

... primitive.

What is this?

"Please do not disturb. Thank you
on behalf of the astral existences."

A nasty little man.

Sorry, ladies.

The responsibility is entirely mine.

- Nurse!
- Yes.

- Is it this Drusse?
- Yes.

Here we have a picture
of the bud on that lady.

There's something gray
sloshing around in there -

- which less knowledgeable
people would call a brain.

I can understand that this lady
is some kind of spiritual leader -

- for these terminal ladies.

She does not deserve that status.

She is a con artist.
A poor fool playing sick.

Because when she is a
patient, she gets some attention.

Hospitalized 25 times!

25 times. Alone in this hospital.

A simulant.

Damn it!

It is true. I've been to the
hospital a lot, but I'm sick.

- Are they sick?
- Yes.

They are sick!

The patient states, "My
arm feels weak and shaky."

Quote...

... from Textbook in Neurology -

- available in all libraries
and in all kindergartens.

Yes. Here. "The arm feels
weak and trembling"... and so on.

The next time you want to simulate
yourself here in my department -

- then I'll be damned grateful -

- if you do not quote verbatim
from this Textbook in Neurology.

- Nurse?
- Yes.

Please discharge
this... patient.

Idiot!

Who the hell was that?

It is Professor Moesgaard's son.
He studies medicine.

He must join here at the department.
He has high expectations of him.

Oh yes.

Hello Camilla.

Thanks, Mogge.

A rose...!

- You shouldn't have bought flowers.
- Have you thought about it?

I'm too old for you.
Find you a girl at Panum.

It's you I love.

I don't want to run around
with a medical student.

- We Moesgaards don't give up.
- You have to.

- What you say hurts me.
- Do it?

- Yes, maybe I'll do something.
- What?

Takes me days.
You've heard of that before.

I wonder...?

Is that your last word?

And then go. I have to take care of my work.

Stig, you can be a bit
brusque sometimes.

- But do you know why I love you?
- No.

- Would you like to know?
- No.

I love you because
you are a great person.

All the others, they are so small.

When will you move
your things to me?

I have to get in order first.

My little August Strindberg,
at least you have his curls.

Leave my hair alone.

I think we need a vacation.
Haiti, I want to go there so badly.

Yes, call and reserve a table.

Do you mean Haiti?

- Yes.
- Well, what the hell are we going there?

History, voodoo
and natural healing.

Sorry Sorry. What did you say?

Nothing.

Yes, you had it on your tongue.
Now say it, say it, say it.

- Yes Yes. Say it now.
- Natural healing.

It is not much, I
ask you to respect.

But certain words you must avoid,
but if my company does not matter.

- Well, I just meant...
- Natural healing!

Nature! And you are a
doctor, you are a scientist.

- Go outside and wash your mouth with sulfa.
- You're an old curmudgeon.

You must read this book and you
will get a more nuanced picture of Haiti.

Nothing should be read here!
Astral existences!

Hell!

Maybe he's right, Chief Medical Officer.
Maybe I'm just an old fool.

Tell me, Bulder.
Am I a failed mother?

No no no.

No, you can do so many things.

Maybe you're a little
crazy sometimes, but...

... I love you so much.

You're a good boy, Bulder.

- I can drive you home.
- You do not have to.

I'm skipping line 10, but that
was sweet of you, my boy.

Where did you get them?

Mom, where were the chairs? Mother?

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

Hello!

It's on duty.
Is there something wrong?

Nah. I guess I just happened
to press one of the buttons -

- and then it stopped.

- Press the floor and it will start.
- Thanks.

Good day. I'm afraid
I've gone bad again.

You there... come.

Are you anxious?

Nah.

Would you mind if I touched
you, for example in the face?

No thanks.

You there.

Stand close to him.

Closer.

Closer, closer, closer.

I do not like that.

Dislike? Do you think those
gentlemen on the tables like to lie there?

Do you think they like it
when we start cutting them?

I do not know.

I say touch anxiety.

Fear of getting too close
to others is fear of dying.

Why?

Because it is the fear of…

... community.

Community.

Every time you move
into the seat on the bus -

- so as not to touch the
person sitting next to you -

- every time you shy away from
sticking your fingers into an illness -

- then it is the fear of the community!

For the great community.

All those we work with down
here have accepted their place...

... in the community.

A corpse requires nothing.

A corpse, with its magnanimity,
gives its body to all of us...

... science.

We've got a law that requires -

- that we must ask for the
survivors' consent to section.

This legislation can
make our work difficult -

- but if the inquiry is
made openly and factually -

- no one can argue against
the reasonableness of a section.

The law of the living
requires us to ask first.

The law of the dead is to provide.

It calls for respect.

And... then we cut to the chase.

Hello.
We are up from neurosurgery.

The patient is on the toilet.

- Is she there yet?
- Now I have to see.

Mrs. Drusse, have you become unwell?

No no, there's just something
weird about my urination.

My name is Judith.
I am from neurosurgery.

- I think we should put you down.
- Thanks.

When I had to use my bus
card, I couldn't feel my hand at all.

Maybe something
is wrong after all?

I will have to examine you with
needles. Look the other way.

- Can you feel this?
- No.

- Can you feel this?
- No.

Yes, it is also a little cold.

- He looks like you.
- Do you think?

Spot on.

He actually does.

Don't you understand anything, kid?

The dead man doesn't mind
providing a little entertainment.

The one who cannot take
the pathology seriously -

- cannot take life seriously.

It's getting to be evening -

- and the girl is in the elevator again.

Soon she will be there.
Soon she won't be.

Yes. It just keeps repeating itself...

... continually.

It is scary.

Yes it is.

It is scary.

I can drive up myself.

Small child though.

Small child though.

Now I am with you again.

I have come to help you.

But what is happening?

Toddler...

Small child though.

It's childish.
Childish and foolish.

Now listen here. It is the most important
doctors at the hospital who sit in the lodge.

You won't find finer company.
Moesgaard really believes in you.

Even from the shoulders of
small people you can see far.

Yes. "Morning Air" and "Sons of the
Kingdom". Should it be the country's best?

It could be that you could get support
from them. They work for each other.

Imagine if the Mona
operation turned into a case.

I don't want to hear
another word about Mona.

Why do you brush all the time?
Do I have dandruff? Am I losing my hair?

Now leave me alone.

Have a good time, little friend.

So, doctors and patients in the
same elevator, it's embarrassing.

We have realized that in Lund.

There, the doctors have their own
elevator, and no one finds it strange.

It's one I borrowed
from a porter.

- Good day.
- Good day.

Can we go for a walk tonight?
There's nothing wrong with the legs.

Now must we see.

What the hell is that supposed to mean?

Are you a complete idiot?

Stop it! What manners are these?

Sorry, I thought you were to be
introduced to the Lodge tonight.

It does not concern you, Krogshøj.

They just have to watch their noses.

In 1986, Dr. Lindemann
badly injured with it.

It's probably not completely
harmless, that ritual.

Maybe it's not so bad after all.

Honored elder, beloved brothers,
a duckling has come home.

Hail, my brethren! Salute!

Hi Krog, thanks for the bottle.

Duckling, lift your wing.

Say after me:

I swear eternal allegiance to the Sons
of the Kingdom, my honored brothers.

I swear eternal allegiance to the Sons
of the Kingdom, my honored brothers.

And declares in one and
all that their woe and well-

- and their highest laws come
before everything else for me.

And declares in one and
all that their well-being

- and their highest laws for
me come before everything else.

I swear obedience to
the concrete sciences -

- and hostility to the
occult in all its guises.

I swear obedience to
the concrete sciences -

- and hostility to the
occult in all its guises.

And now the ritual!

It was a shame.
That hasn't happened since '86.

How are you?

- There she is again.
- Who?

Drusse, the simulant.

What kind of goddamn moron
put her in the hospital again?

I have.

Judith has examined her.
She has paresthesia in her right hand.

I have admitted her for observation
for a week. I guess that's fair enough.

You are a professor after all.
You know what is fair.

When you're done patching,
bring it back to the brothers.

The rest is just festive.
There are no more rituals.

I'm really happy about that.

Support the patient when he gets up.
Shall we try it?

With all due respect, in
Sweden we try to be civilized -

- and concentrates
our festive activities -

- around serious
and traditional events.

Yes I understand.
Cancer and the like.

Oh, it's true. There is
something I have to ask you.

Do you remember the surgery
you did on Mona or something?

She suffered some injuries.

Also? This kind of thing happens
when you mess with people's heads.

I know that. But I had a
conversation with her mother.

I'm afraid she'll complain.

I promised you would
look up and talk to her.

Now?

Yes, she is staying with her daughter tonight.

Now charm her a little.
We don't have time for complaints.

Part of Operation Morgenluft is
getting to know each other a little more.

Oh, Mona, Mona, Mona,
when will the day come when

I dare to take your pulse
and we can run away...

- Boom!
- Mother!

Do you sit and pimp after work?
Why don't you go home?

- I say the same to you.
- Someone called. A spirit.

- Mother!
- No, it's not what you think.

One that really called. There was
someone crying inside the elevator.

I think it was a little girl.

I had to arrange to
be hospitalized again.

Maybe I have made
contact for the first time.

Imagine that you have spent your whole life
trying to make contact with the spirits.

And then I make contact in
an elevator without wanting to.

Isn't that exciting?
Have you experienced anything suspicious?

- Yes, I have...
- No. No!

Boom! Bulder, we have to
get into that elevator shaft.

No mom!

I didn't think you
would help me.

I will not do it.

I am still disappointed by
the debacle of May 1968.

What kind of trouble was that in May 68?
Youth rebellion?

- You could call it that.
- I moved out.

I was 28 then, mother.

You never said you
weren't happy living at home.

After all, I moved back
home a week later.

- How is your mother?
- My mother? She died a long time ago.

It must be nice for you.

So what if there's nothing in that
elevator shaft? Because there isn't.

Yes...

Yes, so...

Then I promise to
put the mystery to rest.

Completely? No sessions?

When it means so much to you.

The control center.

What favor do I owe you?

Camilla is on duty now.

Just give her the bag
and say hello from me.

Say I'm sorry, but it has to be.

- What are you talking about?
- Come on. Give her the bag.

- Hi Christian.
- Hi.

This one is from Mogge.
He says he's sorry.

I don't want anything from Mogge.

You have to decide for yourself.
He asked me to give you the bag.

Reach.

You can greet Mogge and say
that he can collect his gift again.

There is something
he hasn't understood.

- Now she's got it.
- Did she open it?

- Nah.
- Why not?

I do not know.
Can I go home and sleep now?

I have spoken with Dr. Krogshøj
about joining here at the laboratory.

I can't handle operations.

He thought this
was a place for me.

If you're going to be a doctor,
you have to be there for operations.

I know. Just not today.

Okay.

- You can hang your coat over there.
- Thanks.

Came.

Good evening.

My name is dr. Helmets.

I don't understand Swedish.
Try one more time.

I am dr. Helmets.

Try one more time. Came.

Come honey. Such. It was good.

Came. Hold it. Swallow, honey.

Come on. So...

The lady doesn't understand my accent.
Do you want to translate?

- If I can.
- Thanks.

I am the doctor who
operated on your child.

This is the doctor
who operated on Mona.

- I know.
- She knows that well.

Thanks. I understand what the lady is saying.

- Come honey. Again.
- Mona.

Come on, last time.
That was good, honey.

Mona.

Little Mona.

How is Mona?

- How is she?
- Yes.

Can't you see it?
She will never be good again.

But there is something you must understand -

- regarding the operation
your daughter has undergone.

There is something you must
understand about that operation.

- I have spoken to a doctor.
- Yes. Which doctor?

This kind of thing must not happen.
They have taken her from me.

She had better be dead.

Sorry.

No, little darling.

Oh no. Treasure...

- Sorry, but...
- Don't touch me!

I'm complaining, regardless of whether
you say you're sorry you made a mistake.

They accuse me
of making mistakes?

Here you stand, the patient's mother -

- and accuse me, chief physician Helmer -

- to make mistakes!

It's defamatory, even
in this accursed country.

I've opened skulls before.
This...

... snotty youngsters
are actually not the first.

When it's sad, the children cry.

When it's sad, adults cry.

But what is it like when
the house cries itself?

What is the old lady doing?

She wants in on the little girl.

Isn't she scared?

No, not anymore.

Is the house crying?

The house has been crying for a long time.

Call it the angel field or the
heavenly earth if you want...

Thank you, you Swedish watchtowers.

With plutonium, we force
the Danes to their knees.

Here Denmark -

- deposits of lime and water.

And there Sweden...

... carved in granite.

Fuck you -

- You damn Danes!

She scraped her nails
on the roof of the elevator -

- to come in to me.

Go away, dammit!

Away! The water has undermined
the whole shit. Go away, dammit!

Dear viewers!
Allow me to thank you -

- for having been with the Kingdom.

We have started cautiously so that
everyone should be able to participate.

Already from the next
episode, much more happens -

- because something is very
wrong, and there is a stranger calling.

How often has someone called
you and how often did they reach out?

Was it often, rarely
or maybe never?

In this program we find ourselves
in the limited realm of imagination.

We can never approach the
reality that the Lord creates.

Even the most inventive
artist is an ant against him.

My name is Lars von Trier
and I wish you a good evening.

Should you be drawn by the Kingdom
again and want to spend time with us -

- so be prepared to take
the good with the bad.
