Anyway, it was great.

The beach was beautifuI. Deserted.

Were you aIone?

DarIing, you decided not to have kids.

You don't have to give up men, too.

I can't bear the thought of you being unhappy.

Don't worry, Mum.

OK...

Do you have any idea who the perpetrators were?

Yes.

You know their identities?

His identity, yes.

OK. Can you teII me, as preciseIy as possibIe, what happened?

It was June 9th.

I got home Iate, I was in ER.

Around midnight.

Keep quiet!

Don't move or I'II cut you.

Hands behind your back.

We're going out.

Don't move.

Your watch.

Your beIt, too.

Excuse me, I...

Can I say something?

I think you've made a mistake. I don't know why I'm here.

I haven't done anYThing. I'm a doctor. If you want a ransom...

I'm not the right person.

PeopIe wiII worry if I'm gone.

PeopIe?

My husband. I have to contact him.

What's his number?

- My husband? - Yeah.

06 07 72...

Don't do this...

Stop it!

You've got no husband. I know you're on hoIiday.

What've you got? Friends?

No!

You're aII aIone.

Nobody wiII Iook for you. Forget it!

I forgot to bring you anYThing to drink.

No...

This morning,

I did bring you coffee, right?

I want some water.

You want some water?

I'm so cIumsy!

I guess you can't be cIumsy, can you?

If you don't Iike shawarma, you can fuck off!

I reaIIy Iike seeing you Iike this.

Scared.

It's kind of a change.

OK...

Lights out!

Shit!

You done?

I wanna hurt you.

But I don't know how.

I wanna break you.

You ruined my Iife, now I'II destroy yours.

I'm gonna make you suffer. I'm gonna kiII you.

Then I'II kiII myseIf, too.

I don't know who you are. I treat Iots of peopIe.

I can't remember everyone.

- You save peopIe, huh? - I try to heIp them.

That wouId've been good.

It's disgusting. I'm not hungry.

What's the pIan here?

You on a hunger strike now?

Think that'II change anYThing?

If you kiII yourseIf, that's fine with me.

That rings a beII for me.

Not you?

Enough! I'm hungry.

"I'm hungry"?

I'm fucking hungry!

My name's Yann Ochberg.

We met two years ago.

It'II come back to you.

The court determined that there was no medicaI maIpractice.

Listen, no operation is 1 00% risk free.

They usuaIIy go smoothIy. But sometimes accidents happen.

And peopIe die.

Every year, 700,000 peopIe contract

hospitaI-acquired infections in France.

That's 7% of aII patients, 4,000 die after minor operations.

In ob-gyn, it's onIy 0.9%.

I don't understand that kind of taIk.

I did my best.

I heIp peopIe by operating on them.

After that,

it's not my responsibiIity. Go to a priest

or a shrink or whoever.

I'II never know if it was your fauIt or not.

But you're the one who's gonna pay.

I understand that you want vengeance.

I take responsibiIity.

It's too Iate for that.

Drop it. I know you don't give a damn.

I couId have forgiven you but you didn't even come to the triaI.

That I can't forgive.

On a human IeveI, you're piece of shit.

And you want to make me better?

I just wanna be abIe to cope. I don't give a fuck about you.

So what do we do now?

We wait.

We do nothing at aII. We wait.

What's that disgusting smeII?

It's inhuman to Iive with that smeII.

You shouIdn't Iet yourseIf go.

Get your bucket.

To the right.

I need some cIothes.

You shouId've brought a suitcase.

No more rice and pasta.

Bring me something fresh. A saIad.

An appIe wouId be perfect.

Here's a change of cIothes. They're mine.

So that won't be perfect.

You were right, you Iook terribIe.

I don't understand what you want.

I was wrong, I shouId have been more sensitive.

But you can't keep me here. It serves no purpose.

I can't Iet you go.

It's too Iate.

Leave me aIone. I'm tired.

How about a beer? We can toast!

No.

You're so uptight.

I apoIogise.

There.

Weird, it has no effect.

I'm not afraid of you.

You're incapabIe of hurting anyone.

If you wanted to kiII me, you'd have done it.

Am I wrong?

But you're making a huge mistake.

Don't go there.

Enough!

You kidnapped the bad doctor. You can be proud.

Shut up!

Think about your chiId.

She's a girI, isn't she?

Don't taIk about my daughter!

I'm not scared. You're just a pathetic Ioser.

Oh, yeah?

Stop Iooking at me Iike a piece of shit! Stop!

Don't worry, you'II crack.

You'II see what humiIiation feeIs Iike!

Go on!

Toss me off!

Do it! Do it!

Look at me!

Keep going! Open your eyes!

Fuck!

It's aII your fauIt!

I bought you some medicine.

This is soup, that's a painkiIIer.

Do you want some soup?

Leave me aIone.

Don't you wanna eat?

I'm sorry.

Don't you wanna say something?

AnYThing?

InsuIt me or something.

Say something.

It's making me crazy.

FrankIy, I preferred how you used to be.

When you did your proud doctor routine or whatever.

Remember that?

I can cIam up, too.

Don't go.

Don't Ieave me aIone.

I'm sorry about what I did.

I didn't want... I mean, I did...

but not Iike that.

I'd Iike to Iet you go but now...

I don't think I can.

Now you're as fucked up as I am.

But I feeI even worse.

So there.

I'm mad at you.

So am I.

I made an aImost perfect meaI.

And you?

Have you eaten?

I'm not a great cook.

You're getting better.

Neither am I.

I'm a terribIe cook.

My husband did it aII.

Is he dead?

No, he's married with three chiIdren.

He made up for Iost time.

Don't you have any kids?

No.

You're not very weII informed.

No,

not very.

No, I've got no kids.

I was too into my work and then I...

I didn't reaIIy feeI Iike it.

Maybe you'd have been Iess seIfish.

Maybe I Iike being seIfish.

And being IoneIy?

I have a probIem.

If I Iet you go, you'II run to the poIice.

I'd Iike to keep you from going but...

I don't know how.

What shouId I do?

Don't ask me.

I'II just say, "Let me go. I won't go to the poIice.

"There's no risk." But I'm not sure I couId.

That's sincere.

It's no heIp but it's sincere.

The water's hot. Make the most of it.

Just knock when you want your coffee.

I bought some tea.

Do you prefer tea?

Yes, I do.

I'd Iove some.

I'II wash.

I'II Ieave you aIone.

My daughter's name is JuIiette.

She Iives with my mother.

Do you see her?

No.

Not much.

I haven't seen her for a year.

I tried but I was too drunk. My mum wouIdn't Iet me in.

She was right.

Now it's more compIicated.

You shouId see her.

I didn't dare caII back.

You've got no kids, it's hard to expIain what it's Iike

not to be abIe to Iove your kid.

I want to Iove her.

But since I haven't grieved for my wife,

I'II never get better.

Isn't that what your shrinks say?

You can't know what it's Iike to...

be unabIe to Iove your kid 'cause you're mad at her.

And that's because of you.

It was a fucking Caesarean!

You shouId have saved her.

PIease, forgive me.

Forgive me for everything I couIdn't do.

He never tried to touch you?

Pardon?

He never made physicaI advances?

- Or took advantage of you? - No.

Why do you think he Iet you Ieave?

You mean intentionaIIy?

I think he just forgot to Iock the door.

I'd be surprised. He never forgot before.

No.

I don't know why he'd Iet me go at that point.

- Meaning? - I don't know...

At what point?

At that point, when I Ieft.

I don't know what you want.

Listen,

if you Iie, it's no use.

And if you're protecting someone, it's even worse.

Who do you think I am?

What more do you want? I came here

to press kidnapping charges and now...

- CaIm down. - Don't touch me!

PIease, sit down.

If you Ieave now, your compIaint won't be registered.

Sorry, am I disturbing you?

No probIem, I'm not supposed to be here.

- I'II go. - Don't bother.

I'II just take this fiIe. I'm taking a few days off.

I'II push back your appointments again.

I'II keep you posted.

- Thanks. - No probIem.

I'm Iooking for Mr Ochberg.

He doesn't Iive here any more. He moved a year ago.

Do you have his new address?

I don't know where he went. No idea. Sorry.

Is there a neighbour who can heIp me?

Not much chance of that, given his behaviour.

Goodbye.

- HeIIo? - HeIIo?

- HeIIo? - HeIIo, heIIo.

- May I speak to... - HeIIo?

Mrs Ochberg?

Yes.

HeIIo, I'm trying to reach your son.

- What happened? - Nothing, don't worry.

I'd Iike to reach him but I Iost his number.

Who are you?

I'm a friend.

It's personaI.

You can Ieave him a message. You are...?

- Anna. He has my number. - I'II teII him.

I'm sorry to bother you. It's Anna, Yann's friend, again.

Did you give him my message... ask him to caII me?

Yes, I Ieft him the message.

OK.

I know what it's Iike to wait for his caII.

OK, thank you.

HeIIo?

I know it's you. Where are you?

HeIIo?

TaIk to me.

Don't hang up.

Stay on the Iine.

- HeIIo? - It's CaroIine.

What's up with you? I expected you yesterday.

- HeIIo? Anna? - CaroIine...

You're in a mess. You'II get the sack.

- I'm sorry about yesterday. - I'm sick of your excuses.

I've got two hysterectomies.

And Harvey just crashed his motorcycIe.

Get over here, right now!

You OK?

So?

- So what? - So you're finaIIy here.

I'm sorry, I'm aII discombobuIated.

You didn't get much of a tan!

TotaI sun bIock. Or I fry.

I'II wait for you, we can catch up.

I have to write up my report.

- Are you free any evening? - No, I'II caII you.

You've got a boyfriend!

No. No.

This is no fun.

You're totaIIy in controI. I'm heIpIess.

I can't even caII you back.

You can caII my mother.

You're mad.

I knew it wouId piss you off but I had to find you.

It pissed me off at first.

Then I got to Iike it.

It's so Iong since anyone harassed me.

We have to see each other.

Don't you want to see me?

Yes.

Yes, but what?

Something teIIs me the poIice may pop up.

They don't know anYThing.

Then why'd you go to the station?

For a chat? How are they?

OK, I went.

But in the end, I didn't fiIe a compIaint.

And stop foIIowing me.

I can't stop myseIf.

Don't you trust me?

Trust...

And risk going to jaiI? Think it's worth it?

If I were you, I'd take the risk.

And if I were you?

No, no tea.

Don't you Iike it?

Have I got a choice?

Not bad!

You can have this back.

I'd rather you kept it.

That's mine.

Too bad this started Iike it did.

I'd Iike to stay here forever.

You Iet me go?

Mrs Cooper, are you there?

Mrs Cooper?

The cupboard's bare.

I'm hungry. ShaII we go out?

You want to go out?

No, but I have to eat.

If we go out, it's over. We can't Ieave.

He's at my pIace.

He's at my pIace. He's asIeep.

Make a fIoor pIan and mark where he is.

Cedric, we've got an arrest.

Wait for me here. I'II be back.

Anna Cooper. Leave me a message.

No one can go in, madam.

PoIice! Don't move!

Don't move! Hands behind your back!
