Original subtitles

The sun is calling, the world awakes

From its shoulders the night it shakes

Through the veil of morning mist The day breaks through, ray by ray

So go outside, breathe more freely!

Seize your happiness while you may

ln the rooms of unknown houses We may encounter strokes of fate

Private thoughts and private longings Many secrets lie in wait

Everything laid out before you Joining together in harmony

Recklessness could be your downfall

And silence Fortuna's melody

THE UGLY TRUTH

Theo?

Yeah?

Did you just slap my face?

What?

No!

Maybe l just dreamt it then.

Alina's in town. She wants to visit for a few days.

Who the hell is Alina? - Nicky's daughter.

Who's Nicky? - My best friend from school.

The one from Dülmen.

Oh, Nicky from Dülmen! Your best friend! How could l forget?

She'll be here in an hour, so it'd be great

if you tidied up and hoovered the living room.

What? - l can't do it with crutches!

Hanna? - l don't even know Alina!

Why should l tidy for her? - l don't either.

One of you has to hoover. Look at the state of the floor.

l don't see anything. - l hate to interrupt.

But, Dad...

Mona... erm...

l need 400 euros.

What for? - For a dress for a party this weekend.

Why not 500, then 600 for new shoes?

lt's totally normal to spend 400 on a dress.

Hanna, be careful with your spending.

You be careful with your drinking. - What?

Nothing.

Theo, will you drive me to physio? - Anything else you want me to do?

You poor thing! You're so overworked!

Dad? - What?

l need help with audition photos.

So it would be so great if today... - Hanna, not now!

l'm so busy with all the other sh...

Who the heck is that?

Hi, l'm Alina.

Uh... nice to meet you.

Come on in. - Mona!

Alina!

Hi, sweetie. Good to see you.

Hi!

l was in the area, so thought l'd come by. - Yes! That's fine.

Oh, what happened to you? - A car forced my bike off the road.

l rode into a construction fence and bust my kneecap.

Oh, God! l'm sorry. When did that happen?

Two and half months ago.

Hello. Alina. - Hanna.

You're so grown up! And so pretty!

l hope l'm not disturbing you.

No, it's not a problem. How's Nicky?

Are you all right? - l just broke up with my boyfriend.

l was actually going to stay with him. - l'm sorry!

Mona?

What about the 400 euros? - Hanna, l already said no.

lt's so kind of you to take me in.

We're glad to have you. Show her the room?

Of course!

The suitcase, darling. - lt's fine. l can manage.

Your house is lovely. - Thanks.

Wow!

And what a garden!

lt's Mona's house.

Really? - Yeah, she inherited it.

She comes from a family of lawyers. Her grandpa, her parents, Mona herself.

So be careful what you say to her.

lt's stunning!

When l think about where we live!

"We"? - Grandma, Grandpa and me.

Your mum's parents?

ln Dülmen?

Well, l grew up there, but nowwe live close to Münster.

What's your story? - Huh?

Yourjob, l mean.

l'm...

l'm a sort of artist. - Really?

l write, paint, take photographs.

What do you take photos of?

All sorts.

Mainly...

Nudes? - What? No!

Nothing wrong with that. And what do you write?

Books. - Anything l might have heard of?

Yeah! One of them even got published.

But no one wanted to read it. So embarrassing.

My ex is a writer. - Oh, yeah?

He writes scripts for TV. - Would l know anything?

l doubt it. 15 years of trash.

How old is he? - 37.

And you're...?

Guess.

l'm no good at that. - Go on.

20? - 19

He's twice your age. - l've always clicked with older guys.

How did you meet, with him in Berlin and you in Münster?

l'll tell you that another time.

And why did you break up?

He cheated on me. - Ouch!

Theo!

Well, duty calls. - Theo?

But my friends also call me Teddy. - Why Teddy?

l'll tell you that another time.

Okay.

Make yourself at home.

First you yell at me, then you make me wait.

l can't go any quicker.

Can't you get rid of your damn deposit bottles?

That isn't what l meant. - Oh, Mona!

Seriously!

You look homeless, but moan about empty bottles.

My looks don't matter! l just want to get my leg fixed.

Have you cancelled your mobile phone contract yet?

You already asked me that yesterday.

l'll ask you until you finally do it.

lt just renewed for another year. - Great!

Then l can cancel it next year instead. - Theo, you're so unreliable.

You throw our money out of the window. My money.

Why do you have your camera? - l'm going to see Johann.

He's invested in a night club. Fancy place.

l'm going to take photos for the website. - He's back from Thailand already?

Guess it didn't work out.

He probably got someone pregnant again and had to do a runner.

You can be so mean, Mona.

Don't talk shit, dude. - lt's true!

She's stunning.

Wow!

Dude.

Teddy! - Huh?

Come here. Tell me about her body. - What?

l mean, 19! Those young things smell like...

Their skin! Smooth, soft as butter. So sexy.

You sound pretty perverted. - lt's appreciation of beauty!

Life in all its splendour. Tell me about her arse.

Small? Tight?

Yeah, it's hot. - And she's staying with you?

Yes, she is.

l don't believe it.

Do you have any pictures in your studio that might fit in here?

Sure.

l need a few pictures in here. - Okay.

Nice. l have to go and wash the car with David tomorrow at 12.

A father-son bonding thing.

But l could come by your place afterwards. - Do that.

Fantastic!

But, listen, seriously. Aren't you, like...

... constantly horny with her around? - know what, Jo?

Get me a beer.

And one for you, to cool yourself off. - Coming right up.

Dude! Nine... teen!

l'd be hard as a rock.

Your photo, Hanna. You've made it to the next round.

Thanks!

That's it.

What are you looking at? - The pictures l took today.

Show me.

Here? - Yeah.

Look at him! He's getting old. - We're all getting older.

Be a bit gentler!

You'll make it worse.

Get another CT scan. We don't want you ending up a cripple.

Wouldn't you love me anymore? - Of course l would, but...

... no need to take any chances.

Life is such a drag right now. l can't do anything.

You work all the time. Enjoy your time off a bit.

l've realized that my work is what matters to me most.

Teddy, l didn't mean it like that.

l'm just a workaholic.

Darling, you started out with "just one glass".

Then it was two. Then a whole bottle. Now you're opening a second one.

lt won't kill me.

RELEASE

l yearn...

l see you in many colours

Hey. - Hey.

May l? - Of course. Come in.

Nice pictures.

Thanks.

Talking of photos, show me. - What?

The pictures you just took of me. Did they turn out well?

l didn't mean... - lt's fine. l just want to see them.

Okay.

They're really good.

With you as a subject, they couldn't go wrong.

Charmer!

Did you take that one?

Yep.

And who is she? - That's...

... a secret.

Do you like it?

No, l think it's terrible.

Offended? - Why should l be offended? l...

Not everyone has to like it. - No?

No. l'm not that interested in what other people think.

l know this music. - Puccini.

ls there anywhere to go out round here?

What a coincidence! My friend just opened a club.

Then let's go there. - With me?

lf you like. l don't know anyone yet. - l can't dance.

Fine. Then l'll teach you. - lt's embarrassing.

No. Come on. Let's do it!

Okay.

Cool.

Right, l'm going to get some more sun.

l see you in many colours

Words alone don't make it clear

lnside me, a healing process

Simply because you are near

Gone the tumult, gone my troubles

Suddenly vanquished by your grace

Out of the blue your name comes floating

ln my heart it finds its resting place

l had an interesting chat with Alina.

She told me about Nicky.

She isn't taking care of her at all.

What about her father? - Anton?

He cheated on Nicky when she was pregnant with Alina.

He has three kids with someone else.

Crazy.

Oh, yeah...

Hanna wants to audition for Germany's Next Top Model.

You what? - She wants money for professional photos.

You're not serious?

Why not? She's pretty.

lt's totally out of the question. - You can't forbid her.

Oh, yes, l can. l know what that industry's like.

Ever been a model? - No, l'm a photographer.

That's what l'm trying to say. You should take the photos.

Teddy!

Theo!

Can you answer the door? - Nothing but stress.

lt's still ringing!

Hey! How you doing, mate?

Bit early, aren't you? - Washing the car didn't take long.

He did a pretty good job.

Maybe you could do something with cars.

David, Hanna's by the pool.

Yeah? - You know the way, don't you?

Okay.

Hanna's by the pool?

And where is she? - Who?

Little Miss Sweet Cheeks.

She isn't here.

You're kidding? Then what am l doing here?

You're such a dick.

David! - Hey, Hanna.

Haven't seen you for ages. - You're right.

You've got really tall. - You too.

Yeah? And wide too, huh? Just kidding.

You never replied to my party invite. - l didn't get it.

Come on! l wrote to you on WhatsApp. Did you block me or something?

l got a new number. - You didn't ask my permission for that.

You didn't ask to come in my garden. - Hey.

Hey. - Who do we have here?

Jenny, David. David, Jenny.

My old neighbour. - Hey.

You want a juice, too? - Only if it's with vodka.

Anyway, better make a move. - Well, keep in touch.

lnvite me next time. - Sure.

Come and hang by the water with us guys. Pot, booze, food.

Sounds interesting. Right, Jenny? - Cool.

Hey, then give me your new number. The right one this time.

Nice one.

l'll text you girls. Don't you block me again!

Ciao! - Ciao!

Guys, l know what to do with the money.

What money? - l told you about it!

l won that sports bet, remember?

Dude, are you retarded?

l told you yesterday. l turned 20 euros into 600. 30 to 1 odds.

l can't remember.

Alzheimer's!

So what are we doing with it?

Weekend after next, my dad is away. Uk. London.

We'll throw a party at my place. And get ourselves some high-class tarts.

Prostitutes? Dude, that's gross!

l've seen the website, guys.

They all look like fucking supermodels.

Really? - And the best thing is...

We can fuck them. Get our cocks sucked, yeah?

And for 50 euros extra, no condom.

No rubber?

Ugh. You know they screw anyone.

lt's much hotter without one, you joker!

What about HlV and other STDs?

"HlV..." What's up with you?

You're crazy. - Dude!

Chong Li!

Chong Li? Who's that?

A guru in China who has this blog.

He knows a lot, tells you how to avoid HlV and other STDs.

And how? - Well, you're fucking her like this...

When you've come, you pull out and rub your bellend with your own urine.

HlV has no chance. - Bollocks!

l swear! Right away with your own piss.

You just smear it all over and rub it in.

That doesn't make sense. What if you don't need to pee?

Then drink loads ofwater first! What's up, spaz?

Chong Li has ten million followers. - So?

Would that many people follow someone talking shit?

lt kind of makes sense. They can't all be idiots.

There you go.

Okay, here's another argument.

Ever seen a Chinese person with HlV?

There must be...

l never have.

Where are the girls anyway? - What girls?

One of them is my old neighbour. A little cutie. Got nice tits now too.

She's bringing her mate who has a nose ring.

Hot. - She is hot.

But her friend... God, she is so sexy!

Girls! - Guys, you know it's going to rain later?

Shall we go somewhere else? - Hey!

Come and chill here for a bit!

ls David going too? - Don't ask about David.

Why? What's up with him? - l think he's just...

... stupid.

Why? - lt didn't worry me when he was little.

But...

But l really think that boy is... He's just stupid.

The smartphone generation, you know? - Always stoned out of their minds.

Any of you ever snorted coke before?

l've done coke. - And?

lt's really cool.

You don't look like someone who's done coke.

Why? How do they look?

l've done coke.

l was offered it a few times, but l was too scared.

ln any case, l need...

So, l'm flying to London next weekend, without David.

But l'm afraid to leave him alone. He might blow up the house.

Girls?

Weekend after next, my dad's going to London.

Wanna come and party in the big house?

Go crazy? - Will there be coke?

Of course! We always have coke.

And lobster? - Why lobster?

Okay!

Yeah, why not?

Coke and lobster. Got it. - Champagne.

How could l forget Champagne? We always have it.

Listen, l need 1 ,000 euros.

What do you need that for?

Alina wants to go dancing, and my clothes don't fit.

You want to spend

Are you flying to New York? - No, but l need something modern.

Like a new leatherjacket. - Oh, stop it!

That can cost 500. - You? A 500-euro leatherjacket?

Your knob's doing the thinking.

Can we text each other? - Yeah, sure.

You have a cute smile.

And you smell really good.

Or is that me?

No, it's you.

lf you like, we could...

get ice cream some time.

lce cream?

Don't go too crazy now!

Coming to my place? - That's the plan.

How cool is that!

Tomorrow evening. - Then l'll meet her.

Got the money? l have a hair appointment.

What?

What happened to your hair?

l felt like a change. - l thought you were a burglar.

l'm going dancing with Alina.

Well? - Well what?

How do l look?

You're really going out like that? - Oh, forget it.

l found my old leatherjacket.

lt's from the eighties. - The eighties are in again now.

lt stinks of the cellar. You can't wear that.

You smell of mothballs! - Fitting for an old fogey like me.

You can douse it with aftershave.

But... we have to do something about your hairdo.

You used to have that adorable Elvis quiff.

ls this really necessary? - lt is.

But your hair's a bit too short. - Give that to me.

Don't tread on anyone's feet.

What do you look like? - What do l look like?

Probably better l don't answer that. - You know nothing about style.

Where are you going? - Dancing with Alina.

Really? - Uh-huh.

Since you're here, can we talk about the pictures, please?

lt's really important. - Not now. l'm in a hurry.

Dad! - We'll talk tomorrow. l promise.

What? - l have to get used to it.

That bad? - l liked your long hair.

You could have told me that a bit earlier.

How long have you been married?

13 Years.

And...

Hanna's mother was Mona's sister.

Right?

Your first wife?

And may l ask you how she died?

l don't like talking about that.

There you go.

ls it too personal?

There you go. On the house.

Thank you.

That'll be four euros from you.

You're here already.

Alina, this is Johann. Jo, this is Alina.

Hello. - Hey.

So you're Alina?

l've heard a lot about you. - Oh?

l almost didn't recognize you. You've had...

The drinks are on the house. - Pity l just paid.

Not yours, of course. You have to pay.

You're early.

The DJ isn't here yet. When he is, he'll get the party started.

Go wild!

See you soon. - Yeah.

What's with the hairdo? - Shut your face.

Sorry. - You and Mona...

Are you happy?

Are you happily married?

l can't complain.

Wait a minute. You've been married 13 years.

And all you can say is, "l can't complain"?

There comes a point

when life is made up of compromises and that's totally fine.

But isn't life supposed to be about being happy?

Doing things that are fun?

You can't always be happy.

True.

l was devastated when my dad left.

But now l think: if he was so unhappy, why should he have stayed?

You have a point. - He was dead to me for years.

But to find my inner peace, l've no choice but to forgive him and to move on.

Where does your dad live? - Reit im Winkl.

That's a place?

ln Bavaria, on the Austrian border. - Ever thought of visiting him?

l can't afford it. - lt can't be that expensive.

know what?

You should take some photographs of me.

Gladly.

l'm going to get a drink. - Okay.

Another beer. - Sure.

ls everything okay with you? - l think... l'm too old for all this.

What?!

Do you know what Johann honestly said to me?

He said my new hairstyle looked as if a chimpanzee

had shaved its balls on top of my head.

l mean, seriously?

Why a chimpanzee? And why its balls?

Exactly!

No. That's rubbish. Johann has no idea about anything.

He thinks he's some popstar from the 1970s.

And he hasn't realised that he's way past his peak.

What?

You see? l made you laugh.

We should go to sleep. lt's late.

know what?

l really like you.

Yeah?

You're my Teddy!

Have we crossed boundaries in our fever? Or will reason come to quench this fire?

Like sparks, l see us floating upwards lllusions created by desire

Yearning as great as the ocean

Deep, endless, wide

Sluggishly my life flows by

How l wish l could take flight!

Theo.

Call me Teddy.

Teddy.

l want you to take nude photos of me.

l would never normally do anything like that.

But l trust you.

l beg you, universe.

Please let my dream continue.

Hey, Haydar? This is Pedro. l got your number from my brother Sergio.

l need some coke for this Saturday. How much?

For six people or so. Yes.

How much?!

250 Euro for what?

That's pretty expensive.

Different question.

knowwhere l can get some lobster?

l don't believe it!

Haydar?

Hello?

Loser!

You're a hopeless case, mate.

So are you.

You deserve to be locked up for the shit you come out with.

Stupid!

What's up with you?

Nothing.

l'm worried about David. - What about him?

Just look at him. - Well...

When l look at him...

He'd struggle to be a postman. - He'll come into money though?

Stop. l'm serious.

Maybe it's my fault.

Maybe l was... away too often when he needed me.

l mean it.

l wasn't there, to shape his character.

No reason to torture yourself. - But l didn't take care of him.

l was always off chasing girls. l...

Think about Hanna. Have you always been there for her?

Really. Are you there for Hanna when she needs you?

Apropos, l need another 1 ,000.

lt's always the same. - l'll pay you back.

That young thing will destroy you. - Possibly.

You're in love, aren't you? - No!

Rubbish! - You are! lt's too late.

No!

lt's all under control.

l mean, fucking is okay.

Fucking is okay. But...

lt might turn you off that she's almost your daughter's age.

Leave Hanna out of it. - Hey, come on...

l have a point there. - l just want to find out...

what this thing is between us.

Theo...

Don't take this the wrong way, but l think this thing...

is pretty one-sided.

No, it's not. She told me she's scared of her feelings.

Really? - Yeah!

Seriously.

Well, it was just a dream, but hey...

it felt so real!

Teddy?

You need help.

So... when do l get the money?

Yeah? - Hi.

May l come in? - Sure.

l have a surprise for you. - Really?

Close your eyes, hold out your hand.

What's this?

Take the money and visit your dad in Reit im Winkel.

What?

Theo, l can't accept that.

Of course you can.

No one's ever done anything like this for me.

Why are you being so nice? - Visit him.

Would you come with me?

l don't know.

l'd feel safer that way. - That's probably not such a good idea.

Come with me. lt would mean a lot to me.

Okay. When would you like to leave?

lfwe're really doing it, then very soon.

l'll have to talk to Mona.

l don't know if l can leave her alone.

Has your dad taken the photos for your audition?

My father has other things on his mind. - What, for example?

He's playing the big artist.

But l've never seen him paint or write. - That's pretty harsh.

Meanwhile, Mona's drinking herself to death.

l get the feeling all the women in my family

have the same fate.

Don't talk shit. You have to speak to them both, especially your dad.

Hey. - Hey.

Why are you still up? l've been waiting for you.

l wanted to talk to you anyway.

Do you think everything will be all right again?

You mean your knee and your pelvis? - They won't get better.

The doctors screwed everything up.

lf you drink two bottles ofwine a day

it won't get better.

At least l feel good when l drink. - Booze never solved anyone's problems.

know how shitty it is to lie up there, not being able to do anything?

You're here, but you're not really here.

You give me a wide berth.

And l feel completely alone.

Everything will be fine, Mona.

You promise me?

Yeah.

l promise.

l really want to feel you again, you know...?

l need you so much!

l need you too, darling, but you're not in a fit state yet.

You find me repulsive? - No, of course not! But...

l just want to feel like a woman again.

l just want to sleep with you again.

Darling, stop! Stop. You're drunk!

Okay. l get it.

Then sleep on the sofa. - What?

Mona.

You have a huge problem.

Sort yourself out before it's too late. We know what your family's like.

Yeah!

We're a bunch of psychos.

But you know what you are? You're nothing!

You're absolutely useless.

All you're good at is sponging off other people.

You did that with Maria, too.

You're nothing but a scrounger.

Theo?

Theo!

What's wrong? Why did you sleep on the sofa?

You're kidding?

No. Why?

Because you were drunk as a skunk.

You wanted sex, l said you couldn't yet

and so you wanted me to sleep on the damn sofa.

This sucks.

Of course you can't remember. Right?

Hey!

Your breath reeks of booze!

Alina wants to meet her father.

ln Bavaria.

She asked me if l would...

go there with her.

Would that be okay with you?

Well... it does seem a little weird

that you're spending so much time with her.

l'll let you decide.

lf you don't want me to go, if you need me, of course l'll stay.

No, l think it's good that you're making an effort.

l'll just go and tell Alina we'll leave first thing tomorrow.

Theo! Theo...

l'm sorry if l'm acting strangely, but l feel really shitty right now.

And...

lt's nice she doesn't have to travel alone.

l'd have done the same.

Theo?

Yeah?

There's no need to get up. - No! Listen.

Everything is all right!

l love you more than anything.

That's nice.

l love you too.

Mona, we don't have any proof.

Some junior doctor stitched it up.

Now my scar is swollen and the lymph isn't draining.

The senior physician came by and told the junior doctor

to do it again or there would be a scar.

He didn't do it, and my mind was too foggy for me to say anything.

That same senior physician will appear in court as a witness...

Yes, but that isn't what happened!

lt simply isn't true!

l'm a cripple. l can't walk and l'm in terrible pain.

The chances aren't good, you have to know.

Tell your clients that shit, but not me!

l know a doctor who can sort you out...

l went to the doctor, and they can't sort me out!

Let's talk when you're sober. - But l'm not drunk!

l'm just angry and desperate, and you refuse to help me!

You're nothing but a cowardly arsehole.

What a wanker!

He was supposed to be here seven minutes ago.

Call him.

No, we'll wait five minutes and if he doesn't come, we'll leave.

Hello!

This is Theo, a friend of mine.

Hello, Theo. - Hello.

Should we take a walk?

Yes. l'd like that. Well, then...

l'll wait here. - See you soon.

Yeah.

So, talk to me. How are you doing?

l'm doing well.

What do you do?

l'm about to start studying maths.

Maths? - Yeah.

Wow!

You didn't inherit that from me.

And... how is your mum doing?

l don't know. No idea.

You're not in touch? - Uh-uh.

What happened? - l didn't come here to talk about that.

Then why are you here? - Because l wanted to see you.

l'm really happy you came.

So your family doesn't know anything about me?

l decided to leave my past behind me and...

make a new start,

far, far away from all those problems.

Problems such as me.

No, Alina.

You were never the problem.

The relationship between your mum and me was... little more than a fling.

When she told me she was pregnant and wanted to keep the baby

l was out of my depth.

l had plans, and...

your mother simply wasn't part of that.

But did you never want to know...

how l was, what l looked like?

Didn't you ever want to see me?

Yes, an awful lot.

So why didn't you try to do something?

l thought you'd be disappointed and wouldn't want to know me.

Sometimes giving up is easier than fighting, isn't it?

Would you like to have dinner together tomorrow?

l'm leaving tomorrow.

Tomorrow? Already?

Yes.

That's a pity.

l'm here for a specific reason.

What's that?

To tell you...

that l forgive you.

ls it okay if l walk on alone?

Can we stay in touch?

Look after yourself, Anton.

ls everything okay?

Yeah.

l can move on from it now. - Good.

So we're driving back tomorrow?

l don't want to go back.

Can't we just escape?

Go somewhere nice? - Come on.

Are you wasted?

Where's Dad? - He's in Bavaria with Alina.

Why on earth is he there?

Well... who cares? l'm trying to find something.

What is it you're taking, anyway?

Vitamin A and E.

And calcium. So that l can get healthy.

But l can't find it anywhere.

You taking the piss?

What are you doing? lt's none of your business.

You talk nothing but shit!

Mona, of course it's my business if you stuff yourselfwith pills all day.

You're like a mother to me. And these things here...

are not health supplements!

keep popping pills until they kill you!

What's the worst thing that ever happened to you?

The death of your first wife, right?

She killed herself in front of me.

ln front of you? - Yes.

May l ask how you got together with her sister, with Mona?

We were grieving together.

We wouldn't have made it without her.

l'm scared.

l'm scared the same shit will happen again.

l had no way to reach Maria and...

l couldn't save her. Apparently l can't save anyone.

When two strings are stroked at once

Producing a single concordant note

Forjust one moment Time stands still

As if responding to our will

Oh, imagine ifwe could fly!

Drifting lazily through the sky

Together on a summer breeze We two

Eternity alone with you

One moment seems to last forever

Petals showering down from heaven

A blissful memory from a dream

Hold tight!

Happiness may not outlast the night

Mona, my God!

Howwas it, darling?

How much have you drunk? - Uh...

Since when?

Why didn't you call me at all?

l was in the mountains. No reception.

What's all this mess?

Why are all the pills on the floor?

l'm afraid l had a little accident.

Should l be worried?

You don't have anything to worry about.

l am strong!

l'm just so incredibly disappointed in the doctors.

They've let me down.

They haven't just ruined my leg, but also...

me.

Here, deep inside of me,

they have ruined me.

l have such strange thoughts in my mind the whole time.

They don't seem to be my own.

What kind of thoughts?

l don't want to be here anymore.

l always used to wonder what was wrong with Maria back then.

l've been pondering that question for 13 years now.

l didn't understand.

But suddenly l do.

She just wanted some peace and quiet.

Just peace and quiet.

Mona...

We'll get through this, okay?

l'm so glad that you're back.

Thanks for that!

David's asking ifwe're coming. - Why ask you and not me?

No idea. ls it bad that he asked me?

No.

l've just known him longer. Something going on with you two?

What would be going on? - Oh, l don't know.

Okay, l'll stay away from him. - No need.

l don't care.

All right, biatch.

Let's see if the boys got us what they promised.

Finally!

What? - Jenny's written back.

And?

6 p.m. tomorrow, party with the girls. - Yeah!

Awesome! - Jackpot!

We're gonna get laid! - How do you know they want to?

Hello? Champagne, coke, lobster?

Of course they will.

You bring the lobster. From the Chinese? - Yeah.

We could just order pizza. - Lobster!

All right.

And coke. You have an idea? - You'll love it!

He scares me when he talks like that.

Dude, just let me do my thing. - All right.

Let's divvy up the girls. l get Jenny. You have Hanna.

And you get... - Cindy. She won't even look at me.

We'll fill 'em up with cheap champers until even you look good.

Very funny.

Right, son of mine!

l hope the house is still standing when l return.

Where would it go?

Come on... You know what l mean, right?

Never mind.

Right...

No parties when l'm away, in case you were planning that.

Just forget about it, okay? - You think l'd throw a party?

David, l think...

l made a lot of mistakes bringing you up.

ls it possible that l... often wasn't there when you needed me?

l mean...

... when life was tough. - What are you talking about?

lf l could turn back time...

l would.

Then maybe you wouldn't be so...

So what? - So...

Oh, well. lt doesn't matter. Maybe we'll get our act together.

Well, then...

Come here.

Come on. - Yeah... Okay.

Yeah...

Take care of yourself, yeah?

All right...

l love you.

Bye-bye! Bye.

What's up with him?

"Buying lobster in Berlin."

Yeah?

ls everything okay? - Yeah, everything's great.

Would you like to take a walk maybe?

l have to clear my head. - Sure.

We've talked things over.

l was just texting with Rocco.

Rocco?

My ex. There were a load of misunderstandings.

l see.

lf everything works out, l'll move in with him soon.

When we were in Bavaria and l was so happy,

when we were on the boat and having fun, l suddenly realized

how much l love him and that everybody deserves a second chance.

Thank you.

What's with the cotton bud look? - l need those photos.

What is all this modelling nonsense? - Why is it nonsense?

l don't want you to do modelling. - But l do.

You're too short. - And what about Kate Moss?

You're comparing yourself to kate Moss? - Okay, you're a big failure.

Nothing but a couch potato. But you don't have to ruin my dreams.

To survive in that industry you have to be extraordinary.

And you think l'm ordinary?

You act annoyed whenever l ask for something.

You'll do anything for Alina!

Bring her coffee, go out with her. - What are you saying?

Alina is like... a second daughter.

Dad!

You have a daughter right in front of you. Why would you need a second one?

Oh!

You want to have an extraordinary daughter.

Hanna, that's enough.

Do you think l'm stupid? Think l don't know what's going on?

Mona boozes all the time

and instead of taking care of her so she doesn't fall apart,

you chase after that Alina

like some horny, pathetic old bastard!

How dare you?

lf Mona dies now, is Alina going to be my new mum?

Nothing will happen to Mona.

All the women in our family kill themselves eventually.

Dad, you horny, pathetic old bastard!

Are you already on the booze?

Mona...

Today we're getting you some help, okay?

What happened?

What do you mean?

You don't show me any emotion anymore.

You know? Absolutely no emotion at all.

What?

Not even anger.

When was the last time we fought? We don't even fight anymore.

l'll get you some water.

You do realize that you're running away again?

l'd just like to see some emotion!

Shout at me at least! - Are you mad?

l'm grateful even for that!

When did we have a good time recently? Rocco, that doesn't make sense!

How can you be like this? What are you playing at? Really!

l... l can't do this anymore. l really can't do this!

What else could you have to say? Really?

l can't do this. Rocco, it's over. We're through.

lt's over.

Mona?

l wanted to apologize to you.

l can't take it anymore.

ls this stuff even drinkable? Look at it! lt looks dirt cheap.

You said to buy cheap stuff.

l get the runs just looking at it. - Well, we'll see.

Coke? - Yep!

Have you got it?

l have the ingredients. - lngredients?

Yes, for making fake coke. - Dude, you're not serious!

l prepared everything at home. Caffeine tablets, lactose.

Then you need a few drops of petrol. Secret ingredient.

And, bam! We're on! - Petrol? Dude!

Guys, just let me do this.

Where's the lobster?

Hey, guys!

l'm not a lobster expert or anything but...

Dude! That is... - Shouldn't it be red?

After cooking it's usually red, yes. - And is it green before it's cooked?

No, it's not. - Dude, it's green! Why is it green?

Maybe they marinated it in coriander.

Look. This stuff is going to be crazy!

No way, Pedro! - What is that?

That's brown! - Who cares about the colour?

What will we say it is? Chocolate-flavoured coke?

How do we snort that mud? - lt still has to dry.

l'm gonna smash your face in.

lt's better than nothing. After a few glasses they won't notice.

Look, we have green lobster, diarrhoea in a bottle,

and that brown shit!

All we'll get is a placebo effect!

Placebo effect? What?

lt's a medical phenom...

lt's a... - Shut your face.

That's shit!

We argued.

And he said that l'm...

a woman to share nice moments with,

but not for life.

ln arguments people say things they don't mean.

Doesn't matter.

l'm viewing a flat tomorrow. - Yeah?

Yeah.

Ajob, a flat.

The holiday is over.

But...

thank you for some wonderful memories.

My pleasure.

Hey...

Would you like some wine? l want to watch a classic movie later.

Maybe...

Maybe you'd like to join me?

Yeah.

Theo!

Do we have any sleeping pills?

l think so.

There must be some somewhere. - Yeah.

lf l'm off the alcohol, l at least need some sleeping pills.

No, the others.

The strong ones.

Promise you won't drink? - l just want a tablet and to fall asleep.

Okay.

You're taking two?

lf you need anything, then call me.

We should have got prostitutes. - Chill out!

They'll come.

Here they are. Girls, come in! Move it.

Cool place! ls it all your dad's? - Yes!

Or mine. l'll inherit it. - lt's like a holiday apartment.

So what's going down, boys?

l've made myself cosy already.

That's enough, thanks.

You drink one sip, l drink two, etc. - lt's called Bus Driver.

What are you...? - Stop, dude! What shall we do, girls?

How about a game of poker? - Yeah! Let's play strip poker, dude!

Dude! We'll do it, right? - Yeah!

But who wants to see you naked? Our stake is our clothes, yours is money.

That's a cool version!

You'll all be naked and we'll be dressed.

Girls versus boys, five card draw.

l don't know how to play poker.

Okay, five card draw.

l can do that. We're in?

Cool!

Every round you lose, we get 50 euros.

Each time we lose, we take off one item each.

Yeah. Dude! Guys?

We accept the challenge. But you'll get your kit off, right?

Get over here, dude.

Girls vs boys, boys vs girls!

To an awesome evening! - Yeah!

We're totally getting laid tonight. -Awesome!

What's going on?

There's four or five hundred euros there. - So?

And what ifwe lose? - There's no way we'll lose.

l'll wipe the floor with David. - Sure.

What's going on with you and David? Be honest!

Don't lie to me.

lt's nothing.

Why can't men stick with one woman?

There are some men who do that.

Oh, yeah?

Flush!

Dude!

Game over. - Can you even play?

Shut your face!

Why can't more men be like you?

Dude!

Man, this is good shit!

Good job, Pedro! - Thank you.

lt's really pure stuff from Cuba.

Wow, this is top stuff! - You okay?

Why?

You seem annoyed.

No, l'm fine.

l feel sick! - Should l hold back your hair?

ls Teddy trying to get me drunk? - What?

No!

lt was a joke.

Teddy.

lt smells so classy.

Don't just slug it down. This wine is meant to be savoured.

Like that? - Yes.

Something like that.

lt's so warm in here.

You're so sweet. - And you're drunk.

Yeah.

She's taking him away from me.

Just like that.

Hello, l'm Alina.

Alina is like a second daughter.

We'll talk tomorrow, okay?

Who do we have here? - Hey!

We can text each other. - lt's nothing.

Do you think l'm pretty?

Hello, you've reached Theo's voicemail.

Yeah, hello, Dad.

lt's me.

l don't know what's going on. l feel terrible. Please come quickly.

Daddy...

Good morning, Mr kaufmann. This is Elisabeth Hospital in Schildow.

Your daughter Hanna was taken to A & E at 1 a.m.

Oh, shit! - We tried to reach you...

My little girl.

My darling!

Don't cry.

Everything will be all right.

l'm here.

Theo?

Hanna, are you here?

Theo!

When will l see you again? Dad =)

l'd like to come and visit you in Berlin. l love you.

Enmeshed in time's endless churning

The final story comes around

All our hopes and all our yearning

Sink the moment our ship goes down

At the mercy of our actions

No matter where we run

We're the victims of addiction

Repulsed by what we've done

At journey's end a silent meeting

A lonely figure in robes of grey

The ferryman speaks no word of greeting

But his hand shows us the way

THE UGLY TRUTH
