EMMA'S BLISS

Come on...

That feels good, right?

Two, three...

four, five...

six, seven...eight...

You see? It doesn't hurt. Like I promised.

I'm dying.

By reducing the size of the pancreatic tumor,

we're trying to hold back the disease.

We're improving your quality of life

lmproving my quality of life?

But I'm dying.

I could certify you as sick, if you like.

But maybe you should carry on as usual.

We are creatures of habit. And...

when everything changes overnight,

we can cope better if something remains the same.

What does that mean?

Go to work, meet your friends, carry on as usual.

We'll see each other again next week

Yes.

Hello, Max!

Good morning!

Max! How's it going?

Will you have dinner with me tonight?

You want to have dinner with me?

Yes.

Where?

I don't know.

You know a nice place?

Well, it depends on what you like.

Italian, for example

Thai food is nice.

Is there a special occasion?

I just thought...

You know, today is my sauna day.

Maybe another time?

I told you I'd sell the car for 7500.

And no receipt!

Come on, Max!

How much? 7500.

Where were you? Stomach pains again?

I went to see a doctor.

So everything's alright then.

Tell Dagmar that Schroder will come by with his Jaguar.

And take care of the family that is looking at the Zafira.

The car costs 11,900 euros.

What year was it built?

Do you have one with side impact protection?

Hello?

What do you mean, it's not possible?

It should be possible.

Then you have to issue a new ticket.

Those 'Maya huts'... I would like to rent one for a longer period.

I don't know. Three months or so

What charges?

No, you don't have to change the return? ight.

Then let it expire. I'm not coming back.

Okay. I'll pick up the ticket later.

Tell me, how long does it take to learn how to swim?

Hello? Hello?

You're wearing the hat!

He's an official!

Mother, stay out of this!

Emma, your deadline is six weeks from tomorrow

If you haven't paid up, you're out of here.

You can take your personal stuff, but the animals will be auctioned.

Move in with me, you stupid cow.

Is that how we talk now? Then take off your hat.

Only if you put that thing down.

You know, I thought we might convert the attic.

Mother moves downstairs, we move upstairs.

Does she know about that?

Say that you will sell the farm, and I'll tell her.

And if you sell now we'll have some spare money to build with.

The farm is gone anyway.

Damn it, Emma! Stop that!

Shoot back! Loser...

Mother, stay in the car!

But you can't handle it! Damn!

Do you want me to come back later?

I don't need anybody.

But you do, Emma. You do.

Shut the door. Ouch!

When should I report it as stolen?

They'll pick it upon Friday, so not before Monday.

Don't use the third gear or drive it at low revs.

Dima will treat it well. The money is in the office.

I'm worried about the roads.

Don't worry.

They built new roads all the way to Novosibirsk.

Someone's there.

Oh, shit!

You're not serious, are you?

Max,

Shall I call the police?

No way! It's Max!

Shit!

What's that now? Shit!

Hans, I can't talk right now!

Asshole! What's wrong? Are you crazy?

I'm sorry about the car!

I didn't want to do it, but I have to leave!

Why are you doing this to me? I'm your friend!

I didn't want to... I have to leave!

Leave? What does that mean?

Stop the ear and explain! Please!

I'm sorry.

Max...

Max,

The wind blows against the window

The ferryman waits in the harbor

Get into the boat, my child

You must sleep. Sleep...

Stars radiate a strange light

And the silence hums

Darkness falls upon your face

When the song is over

Go to sleep. Go to sleep

Go to sleep. Quietly

Max,

Max! Shit!

I... I don't believe it!

Hello.

They're in the garden... Because you wrecked the fence.

The car...Well...

What?

You came from up there and drove into the fence.

I got you out of the car, and then it went up in? ames.

I think I saved your life

It caught fire?

Did you take anything out of the cal'?

You.

Anything else?

No.

Do you need a doctor?

I put your clothes on the line. They were wet.

They should be dry by now.

I'll send somebody to remove the car.

Can you give me your phone number?

Why?

To let you know when the car will be removed.

I see... yes. I mean, no. That's not possible.

My...My phone is not working.

Good bye.

Good bye.

Are they coming here?

I don't know.

They are. They're coming here.

Turn that it off!

My hens won't lay otherwise

You stay in the vehicle!

Ouch!

He went down there... He hit the fence...

And then the car caught fire.

Emma, this is not a car. This is a Jaguar.

That's right!

You have to report such things!

How did you know about it?

Old Flachsmeier saw it in the morning.

Come on, take a picture of us.

Karl, come over here!

One moment...

Emma, you have to be in it too.

Mother, come here! Quick!

The car smells of petrol

The paint's burned at the top and on the bottom it's fine.

You know what? The fire didn't start in the engine.

External influence.

Where is the driver, anyway?

I didn't see anybody.

That's suspicious.

Maybe he set the car on fire.

Or Emma

Why Emma?

The ear smells like the petrol she puts in her moped.

That's enough now! Maybe that guy took her petrol can.

That's right! It was in the shed!

Maybe...

Wait a minute, why should Emma set the Jaguar on fire?

There you are!

Emma, you really didn't see anybody?

I was asleep.

Here you are!

What did they say?

They asked about the driver.

I told them I didn't see one.

That was okay, wasn't it?

It's not my car. I would prefer if they didn't ask me about it.

You're sure? You can stay if you like.

Who else is here?

Nobody.

You live here alone?

No...

I have 21 pigs, 3 sows,

17 piglets...

What?

Nothing.

Thank you.

And now?

You can feed the hens.

One... two... three... four... five...

My grandfather pulled them out of the barn with a rope.

Their screams were horrible

They knew what came next.

Maybe it can't scream.

The knife must cut through without pressure.

The fear of death is worse than death itself.

How would you know about that?

Come here.

Come here!

Hold that.

It's okay. Your insides look the same.

The blood goes in here and comes out there.

Our heart is the same size.

It's still warm.

It was beating a minute ago.

And where is the pancreas?

The pancreas?

That's the large intestine, the small intestine...

You can't eat it, that's for sure.

It's good for nothing.

So you were injured, after all!

Wait... it's okay.

An old wound...it's better already

I just have to lie down for a minute.

I'll take you to your bed.

It's okay... It's fine

Are you sure?

Yes, thank you.

I don't want to disturb you, but...

Was there an accident here last night?

Why?

So there was no accident?

No.

Well, then...thank you!

Two, three, four, five, six, seven...

That's for the bank. Food and seeds.

Electricity...

And telephone.

Do you feel better?

Yes.

Would you rather sleep in the house?

I like it here.

I'll get you some bedclothes.

No, it's okay.

Are you sick?

What makes you think that?

Your eyes are yellow. And your eyelids are red

Your stomach ache isn't normal either

I'm not sick.

Good night.

What's your name?

Emma.

Max. Good night, Emma.

It's not her usual time.

Slut!

Is it better now?

What?

The? ywheel was out of balance. I repaired it.

You wouldn't think it, but I know a lot about engines

I get it nicely unbalanced and you ruin it! Fix it!

What?

Back to how it was before!

What's going on here?

I cleaned up.

And where are my things?

Here!

'A' for apple sauce and 'Z' for zucchini

First you destroy my moped, and then...

You mess everything up!

Go and tidy your own house!

You could at least say 'thanks'.

This is my kitchen, and I want my dirt!

Here's your dirt!

Do you want me to leave?

I wanted to cook something. That's why I cleaned up.

You want to cook something?

Yes. I'm hungry.

Okay. Then cook something.

And tidy that up again.

Yummy... vegetables. And what else?

I thought you like ratatouille.

Sure.

You put them in alphabetical order.

I always do that.

Very practical.

That's pretty.

What?

The dress you're wearing.

It was my granny's. I don't have anything except work clothes.

I'll have to go shopping in the village.

You don't go to the village very often.

How come you live here alone? Somebody must have raised you.

My grandfather did

What about your parents'?

They died long ago.

Is that him? He looks funny.

He almost broke Flachsmeier's skull. With a spade.

Nobody wanted to have anything to do with him.

But with you it was different?

I don't believe you.

Or are people here that stupid?

You'd better go upstairs

You look strange.

What do you want?

The vet said you slaughtered without anesthesia.

How would he know?

He didn't see the mark of the stunner.

Tell him that I use electrical pliers.

That's what I told him!

Anything else?

I heard your moped...

Three times back and forth... Do you want to marry me?

Oh, Henner!

I'm serious!

I'll take you and all your animals if necessary.

You're the only one for me.

So what do you think?

Something's burning!

Oh, look at this!

A visitol'? I didn't know anything about this.

Who's coming? You never have visitors.

Is it someone who drives a Jaguar?

And look at the way you're dressed...

What are you cooking? Vegetables!

You'd better go now!

No way, I won't go.

Henner!

I put my head on the block for you.

I know, Henner.

You see! That's why you have to...

Or shall I pass on the vet's complaint next time?

Do as you wish, Henner.

If you want to get married, just let me know.

He's gone!

He thinks we're having an affair.

You've got the money. You set the car on fire so I'd think it's gone.

I want my money back.

'Your' money? Like 'your' cal'?

In any case, it's not yours.

You lied to me.

And you stole it.

Shit! Shit!

Let me out! Let me...

Wait, wait!

I'm looking for someone, a friend

Hello, are you still there?

You told me that there was no accident. But there was one!

You can't just lock me in. It's against the law!

Let me out!

Help!

He'll stop sooner or later

You didn't eat anything yesterday.

Thank you.

I stole the money... from a friend.

A good friend?

Insofar as one can be friends with Hans.

Hans is only interested in Hans.

Why did you steal the money from him?

I wanted to go to Mexico.

I wanted to lie in a hammock and watch the pelicans.

Mexico...

Yes.

I can't eat anything right now.

I'm sorry.

No, no, it's okay...

There you are! I though you'd forgotten me!

I'm glad to see you. Did you talk to Max?

Did he tell you that he knows me? Please...

I forgot to tell you who I am. Hans Hilfinger.

You are so kind. You even brought me food.

It smells nice.

It's delicious. You spoil me.

Are the dumplings home-made?

Yes, so is the bacon.

What?

Home-made and fresh, from my pig.

I can taste that. By the way, I'm Hans.

Did I say that before? What's your name?

You're a friend of Max's?

Yes, yes...insofar as one can be friends with him.

Why is that?

It's hard to talk to him about anything.

He's not even interested in women.

Emma.

What?

You asked about my name.

Right... Pleased to meet you, Emma.

Likewise.

You're a beautiful woman.

Please let me out. I won't do you any harm.

I'm sorry, but...

I still have to think about it.

Emma! Emma!

I'll get you before long!

Look! I found this

For you.

Emma...

I can't stay here any longer.

Right, you got your money back.

No, I'm not going to Mexico now. I...

I am sick. That's why I have to go.

But I can get a doctor.

It's not that kind of sickness.

I have cancer.

Of the pancreas?

Yes. I have to go back into hospital.

Maybe I could invite you to dinner again?

How about coq-au-vin?

It's a French dish. Chicken and wine.

She's coming in...

Hello, Emma.

I'd like a bottle of wine.

White wine?

Yes. Since when do you drink wine?

I won't drink it. It's for cooking

For cooking? That's interesting.

It's French.

Feel free to look around.

Let go of the chicken!

I'm a guest...

The chicken!

So you're a guest, right?

Your ID card.

Your ID card!

What is he doing there? Those are Emma's pigs.

Not for much longer.

Why?

The whole farm will be auctioned.

When?

In six weeks, if Emma doesn't pay her debts

The hens will be sold too, so keep your hands off them.

67,635. Is that enough?

You can't just pay Emma's debts.

Why not?

Because Emma doesn't want your money.

And she doesn't like your vegetables, either.

The vegetables are just a side dish.

Today we'll have chicken.

I had no idea how hard it is to pluck feathers.

I couldn't even get them out with pliers.

Where is the chicken now?

Outside.

This wouldn't have happened with a frozen chicken.

Your stomach? Yes.

Maybe I should go on top? Yes.

Wait...Wait, it's sliding out.

Careful! I'll hold it, wait...

That will do.

Is it okay like that? Yes.

I've never seen him asleep before

Shall I let him out?

We should let him sleep.

Shouldn't I repair the fence now?

Should I do something else instead?

Can I repair the fence later'?

Promise?

Are you in pain?

No.

What about your stomach pains?

They're gone.

They'll come back.

I don't feel anything.

Nothing at all. Only you.

I'll let him out now.

N ow?

I should have done it in the morning.

After dinner?

I'll bring him some food.

He likes my sausage.

Don't let him coax you

Has he tried to'?

Then he can go stale there!

I don't believe it!

The electricity is back on!

Max, the electricity is back on!

Why is the electricity back on?

Max,

Car dealer Hilfinger invested all of his illegal earnings into pig breeding

Max?

Max...

Wake up! Max...

What?

He's dying

Hey! Don't lock me in!

You see? I didn't want to be locked in either.

Don't do that ever again!

Max?

What's wrong? What?

I'll be right back!

Max,

I'll take you to the hospital.

You get a high dose now. We'll set the exact dosage later

Why don't you take out the pancreas altogether?

It wouldn't be prudent to operate now.

And later'?

I don't think so

Give up, Henner.

She's too much for you.

Thank you, Hans.

Don't mention it.

Where is my money?

It burnt in the Jaguar.

You... can have my life assurance.

I don't want your life assurance.

You'll get it sooner than you think

Get lost!

You can't come in here with those boots.

What?

I'm looking for a patient.

It's night!

But I must see my husband, Max.

It's not possible.

Can I see him now?

Please come back tomorrow.

At least check if he's here!

What's the patient's name?

Max.

Surname?

I don't know his surname.

His name is Max!

It can't search Christian names.

I have to go. I have to release her.

I locked her in.

Shall I tell her anything?

Okay.

Hello, Henner.

Hello.

No hat?

No, it's nothing official. I just wanted to see how you are.

I thought you were still angry.

I am. I was just wondering how you are.

What's wrong, Emma?

Would you like a coffee?

Your debts are paid off, you're neglecting the farm

And you never come to the village or to see me any more.

So someone with money turns up and I don't matter any more.

Oh Henner...

But it's true.

What's wrong with you? I'd rather see you with a shotgun

Hungry?

Too hot?

It's as if I were burning. My legs...

Emma...?

Tell me something.

What?

I don't know.

Did you know that I own the only gander in the village?

Basically... he's good for nothing except screwing geese.

He only does it on the water, in winter.

But the creek is too cold for him,

so I prepare buckets of hot water and pour it into the pond.

The people from the village come with their geese.

He's crazy about them.

He doesn't even look at his own geese when the other ones come.

So I don't let other geese into the yard before midday

His come first, and then the others.

I only want one.

What's your surname?

Bienen.

Your surname is 'Bienen?

And you?

Struwe.

Emma Struwe...

Then let's take 'Struwe'

Why 'Struwe'?

You can keep your surname. For me it doesn't matter any more

Let's take 'Bienen'. 'Bienen' sounds nice.

So it's 'Bienen'?

We're leaving...

You're sure you don't want to go back to the hospital?

This is the most beautiful place in the world.

Why didn't you tell me?

I'll do better in the future.

Hopefully, yes...

Hans... I gave her the money

What money?

According to the books nothing is missing, Dagmar says.

You're not saying that Hilfinger has illegal earnings?

I'm sorry.

Could you puke without apologizing?

Yes, I'll do that.

Emma?

What?

I suggested a deal to the Grim Reaper.

If I can sleep with you once more,

he can come a few days earlier.

I think he agreed to the deal.

Rest.

Tell me something.

Once...

Some time ago two peasant women returned from the fields.

A tall fat one and a small fat one.

The tall fat one wanted to cut across the bull 's pasture.

But the small fat one was afraid.

The tall fat one said, "The bull won't do you any harm."

So they walked across the pasture.

The bull watched them closely.

And suddenly it ran towards them.

The small fat one, she ran... She ran as fast as she could.

And she screamed, "Run from the bull!"

The tall fat one replied,

"I won't run because of the bull."

"I'd rather get pregnant than die of a heart attack.

One...two... three... four...

five... six... seven...

eight...

You see... See, it doesn't hurt.

I promised you, didn't I?

Goodbye...Goodbye, Max.

Thank you for being with me.

Emma, you're crying.

You didn't spend much time with each other.

Thank you, Henner.

Don't mention it.

Emma... If you would like to go out for a beer, let me know.

Bye.

Do you have any long nails'?

I'll get them for you.
