Birdsong

-First time in Ecuador?

-Yes, it is.

-How do you like it?

-You've got to like green,
but otherwise, it's beautiful.

-And do you like the landscape?

-That's what I just
it's green.

Once you've said that,
it's hard to say anything else.

But I have a big doubt
about the reliability

of your vehicle.

I mind my own business.
Yes, it is, I'm in it.

-No, you're not.
Don't worry, sir.

This big doll, in 30 years,
never broken down.

It's stupid,
my delco head farted.

I should have told José,
Marie-Sol's brother,

he's a furnace repairman

and knows a thing or two about delco heads.

Does he?
We continue on foot, of course.

It's important to keep things in perspective.

Look how lucky we are.
Magnificent weather!

An Ecuadorian proverb says:
"Good weather, no trouble."

Thunder

It's crazy, isn't it?
It hasn't rained in months.

-Where are we now?

-Lä, we're in Kichwa territory..,
a very dangerous tribe.

-What are you talking about?
-No, but don't worry.

At this hour,
it's almost impossible to run into them.

-That's a lot, isn't it?

-You're in luck.

A walk like that,
there aren't any tourists out there.

-Keep your mouth shut.

-I guess you're right.

Silence,
is the right attitude to adopt

for contemplation.

They shout.

Tribesmen roar.

-Good evening, everyone.

Bonsoir.

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.

I apologize for the late hour.
You're about to sit down at the table.

We're disturbing you.

Who's that?
-That's Coca.

The great chief
of the kichwa tribe.

-Good evening, Coca.

He speaks in Kichwa.

-He says you've come
to spy on his land.

-Ah, not... Not at all.

I felt there was
a little quid pro quo to work out,

everyone was a little touchy.

-Ah... He doesn't trust
white people,

because he says
they've got big heads,

but a small heart.

He also says they're selfish,

rude and arrogant.

-So it's true,

but it's a small part
Parisians,

the inhabitants of Paris.

-He would like to know
the story of your soul

to know if you are worthy
to cross his lands.

-And if he finds

I'm not worthy?

-He'll burn you alive
and your ashes will fertilize his soil.

-Of course he will. Makes sense.

All right, then.
I'll tell you what, then,

let's sit down because we've all had
a hard day.

So...

Where to start?

I guess,

chef Coca, that every being

on this Earth
is born with a talent

and that talent.

-Everyone has a duty to nurture it

and nurture it
to live a fulfilled life.

Take Jessica, for example,
what do you want to be when you grow up?

-Veterinarian.

-That's it, then.

And you, Sébastien?

-I want to be a fireman.

-What about you, Marine?

-I want to lead
a major nationalist political party

like Daddy.

-I'm in.

Vincent,
what would you like to be when you grow up?

-I want lots of free time,

to feel like I'm on vacation
even when I'm working.

-Yes. And what job
will allow you to do that later?

-Civil servant.
Like you, sir!

Civil servant. Like my father.

I used to love
when he took me to work.

I loved walking
the corridors of the prefecture

and see all those men
and women

who devoted themselves body and soul
to their craft.

-No, I call

from the office, it's free.
In Sydney, you must visit the Opera House.

-All those agents,

with a strong sense of state,

serious, committed, hard-working,

at the exclusive service

their one and only raison d'être:
the public good.

"La Ballade des gens heureux
(Gérard Lenorman)

I remember
my father's sentence:

"It's thanks to this gentleman
that I became a civil servant.

"One day,
he'll help you become one too.

"For that,
you'll have to work hard."

Hello, who's that?

I'll call you back from the office,
it's free.

Yeah, sure. I was born for this.

Your hunting license, Gérard.

-Thanks, Vincent.

I brought you some quail.

-Quail! Thanks, you didn't have to.

What are you doing?

-Couldn't we take this
as bribery?

-Gerard.

You have the elegance to bring a gift...

to a good friend
who happens to be a civil servant.

-You can be sure
it's not corruption, is it?

-Let's imagine it.

You've got a hunting license,
I come to you, I say:

"I'm revoking your license,
if you don't give me

"quail."

Did I ask you
to give me these quails?

-No, you didn't.

-Then give me those quails.
What I mean is...

Give me those quails you wish
to give me of your own free will.

-Well...

Can you cook them?

-Yes, that,
is taken care of by my mother-in-law.

-I blame myself. I'm sure they're
they're overcooked.

I've done a thousand things

and I...
-Shhh.

We don't even want

chew them.
They're like butter.

-Oh..... Oh, I was so scared.

I already missed my ratatouille.
-Your ratatouille

from Thursday
is still running down my throat.

-Oh...
-Would you like some wine?

-Stop.

-Honey, I packed your bag
for your badminton practice.

-Yes, and I took the liberty
to iron your outfit.

And increase

the string tension on your
racket. I found it a little soft.

-I don't know who cut you,
but you'll end up in a jewelry store.

-Don't do that,

Vincent!
-My wolf.

-Us civil servants,

were revered.

By marrying one of us,
you had made a success of your life.

CDI, Christmas dinner,
company housing.

Hot!

-Bravo, mon loup.

-Sylvie had seen me coming from afar.

But there was another woman
in my life. My mother.

"Because you loved me"
(Celine Dion)

A loving mother,
a dream job.

Do you believe in reincarnation?

The one who was reincarnated in me
was lucky.

A luck
which in all likelihood

didn't please
everyone up there.

I still remember

that morning as if it were yesterday.

I went to work
at dawn like every other day.

It seemed like a beautiful day
like any other.

I got out on my bike
to make my way to the office,

my daily ride
through the city.

I clocked in with my badge,
as I do every morning.

And I went to join

my colleagues in the meeting room.

Hi, everyone.
-HELLO.

*-... degreased the mammoth...

-What's going on?

-Watch and see.

*-Well,

*we're doing away
departmental branches

"too costly.

*-You're doing away with them?

*-Too scattered
in the minds of the French.

-What's he saying?
-He says we're fired.

*-Civil servants affected

*will either be reassigned,

"or encouraged
in due course.

-You can scratch your eye
with your ENA diploma.

I'm a civil servant,
therefore untouchable.

-Therefore,
the Ministry of the Civil Service

will receive
each civil servant in Paris

who have not met any
non-exemption parameters

and reassign them to under-staffed
in need of personnel.

-And in French?
-Nothing will change.

-It means

that the staff
categories I'll call

will not be affected
by these measures.

They can take a deep breath

and get back to work.

Right, let's get started.

-You'll see.

-A: workers
over 30 years old

service.

-Ah. It's good to be old.

-B: the carers.

And police officers
with missions

on the territory.

C: workers

married
or with more than 2 children

children.

-I wasn't married, with no children.
I said to myself:

"Your turn is coming."

And then it was D's turn.

TO E.

TO F.

-G: workers
with disabilities.

-Thank you.
-No, but that's normal.

H - workers in charge
of people

with reduced mobility
in their family circle.

-My brother stutters.

-Yes, he does.

Of course he does.

-I'm sure it'll work out.

-Mom, if I were you,
I'd avoid talking about it.

-Me? What have I done?

-You know what you've done.
You always take care of yourself.

One fart out of place,
you're off to the doctor.

You don't even have a small disability.

-She's in perfect health.
It makes me angry.

-Oh, well...
-Yes, we find you

an anomaly in your gallbladder,
you undergo surgery.

-By the best gastro
in Limoges.

-Your diabetes, cured.
Your vocal cord polyps,

removed.
At 70, you've got to be in shape.

-Don't you dare.
-It's okay, it's okay.

-Your son's right.

You don't know what it's like
disability in a family.

-You should have been disabled.
-I would have loved it, believe me.

If they could realize

that my carpal tunnel here.
I can't do it.

-No, but I...

I'm at a dead end.

All right, then.

How are you doing?

-Yes, I'm not used to it, but...
How are you?

-Better than I've ever been.

And this.

Do you know what this means?

-Yes, I do.
-Do you?

-It means

that for the rest of your life.

-The rest of my days?

-Be right back.
I'll just be 2 seconds.

Oh, Jean-François.

Madame Porrier.
-Monsieur.

-Alors.... We say

"congratulations"
in this kind of situation, Vincent?

-I'm afraid so.

Sometimes, love knocks on the door,
and this time, I opened it.

I asked
Sylvie to marry me.

-Well done, well done.
-Thank you for this.

And unfortunately,
I won't be able to transfer again.

-Peltier... Come and see.

Come and see. Come along, come along. Voilà.

Marital status does not work
retroactively for the plan.

-What does that mean?

-In other words, you had
married before the reform.

-Mom, do you know
what he asked me?

No, not money.

-Hang up the phone.

-I'll call you back.

Oh, she's great!

-She can.
Let me see. She's holding you, isn't she?

-No, it's fine.
-Your finger's pouting.

And do you know why?
They put an oval ring on it,

I asked for a circular ring.
I'm going to make you a splash

in the jewelry store...
-You...

-It's a phlebitis shot.
-You're hurting me.

-Excuse me?
-Yes.

Do you have any washing-up liquid?
-I beg your pardon?

Washing-up liquid
for my wife, her finger's pudding.

They protest.

Ladies, listen to me!

She didn't love me.

She loved
the civil servant in me.

-AH...

-Yes, it's not the same thing.

They're funny,
your assistants.

And so, after serving
my country for 16 years,

they forced me to vacate
my office, my family,

my friends, my roots,

my life.

Lyrical song

I arrived in Paris

with the image of Sylvie
devastated by sadness.

*-AIlô?
-Can I speak to Sylvie?

*-Don't call again.

It's over now.

So, Yves, how long have you been
been at the prefecture?

-I was lower than dirt,

ready to leave
this world too hard for me.

-Sir, are you all right?
Sir, are you all right?

Can you hear me, sir?

Are you all right?

-But I had a lucky star.

I had to meet him.
This could have been my last chance.

-... listen carefully
and wait for someone to come

to free them
from this atrocious alienation

by employers.

Never in any country has the union struggle
has ever been so topical.

Employers are constantly
to crush us,

us, the people of the railways,
from the log,

the soot-filled stokers in charge
of taking the bourgeois to the quayside.

At Force Ferroviaire,
we're going to fight,

push back the walls,
and this week from 6 p.m,

we'll go for it
with our teeth if we have to. Acquired?

-TO US!

-Acquired?
-OURS!

-Please note. In your sights,
the 2 p.m. week,

but let's not get ahead of ourselves.
To the merguez!

-... cut the workforce,
I refuse and they want to transfer me.

-That's what they say.
They want to fire us all.

You know what they do,
in the ministries?

-No, I don't know.

-They offer transfers
in impossible places,

so most
candidates are afraid

of the destination
and at that moment,

the bastards pick you up
with a handsome compensation package.

All you have to do is sign.
-What do I do, sign?

-No, wait!

But don't blaspheme, Vincent.

A civil servant's job..,
is sacred.

God put you on Earth
to accomplish this mission.

God was also a civil servant.

-Was He?

-Yes, he was. The others did the work
and he's the one to thank.

-I! was right, I shouldn't
like the others.

-Come in, please.

-Inspector.

-Oh no, it's not me, it's her.

-Bah... how modern! At last.

What a...

normality.

Madame Inspector.
-Hello, Mr Peltier.

-So, I'll have
a sweet coffee with a stir-fry.

I'm so sorry.

-M. Peltier, welcome.
I'm the pilot

the redistribution
of this department.

Where did I put your file? Yes, here it is.

-They look good on you.
-I beg your pardon?

-Your glasses look good on you.

-Thank you, sir. Shall I start again?

-I'm sorry, sir.

-You are entitled to severance pay
of 17,000...

-... 482 euros.

I did the check at home.

-You did the check,
wonderful. Let's do a second one.

I'll add to your allowance

plus a bonus.
We've arrived

to 19,490 euros.

-Is this a joke?
-No, it's not a joke.

This is France.

-Yes, it is.
For me, it's a joke.

I'm leaving

a job with 16 years seniority
for 2,000 more?

Your glasses are pretty,
but not strong enough.

Thank you for your time.

Hot!

Little teapot.

-Listen up.

If you refuse, I'll transfer you
to a place that's no fun,

Since you seem to
to love humor, you'll be sad.

-I'll laugh anywhere,
whenever you like, Mme Bailliencourt.

-Would you like to know
where you'll be laughing?

-Don't tell me.

I love surprises.

Classical music

Don't worry about me, Mom.
They've transferred me to the Pyrenees.

-To do what?

-Hello, Vincent. Vincent Peltier.

I'm here to warn you

that a dam will be built
upstream of your charming cottage.

Here is the expropriation order
of the house I recommend

to follow, because in a week's time,
you'll be under water,

the area will become damp.

Identical accommodation
but in town.

-The bastard's holding out.

-You didn't sign?

-No, I'm in Mulhouse,
they transferred me to the CNSS,

Center national
de la sculpture sonore.

*-They're testing your nerves.

Mulhouse,
is like Nouméa or Cayenne,

for convicts. They want
to break you down.

-In Sangatte, Sangatte?

-Psst!

Allez.

Welcome to France.

-Good morning, Minister.
-Bonjour, Madame.

-Good morning, Minister.

-Isabelle Bailliencourt?
-Yes, ma'am?

I'll call you back.

Yes, Minister?
-You're a lethal weapon.

I've seen your results,
it's very impressive.

-Thank you, Minister.

-What are you up to, 1,000 departures?

-1,243 to be precise,
Minister.

-Out of how many?
-Out of 1247.

-So you have four left.

That is, if I count right.

-One of them is
waiting for me in my office.

-This is your last stand.

-You could say that.

-All right, then.

Isabelle.
-Yes?

-You know that...

the president will be reshuffling soon.

I'll probably get
Defense or Foreign Affairs.

Something good.

I'll have to put together a cabinet

and there will be a few vacancies.

We'll talk again?

Shall we?

Bye.

-Au revoir. Au revoir.

-I have a little souvenir from the Pyrenees.
-You do?

-Pyreneans.

-Can I tell you something in confidence?

-Please do.
-You are.

interesting.

You're very interesting.

You've made me think deeply
about myself and my mission.

-Have I?
-Yes, you have.

I realized...
Right, José?

To think that civil servants
would leave

the administration because a check
a check under their noses,

it was almost...

-Outrageous?

-That's it, undignified.

You're much better than that.
You love this house.

You're one of
of the state's greatest clerks.

-Thank you, Inspector,
and you are another.

-35?

Ille-et-Vilaine?

-35,000 euros.

Accept this check
and leave this house.

-Mrs. Inspector,

the servant of the state
will answer your questions.

The French State, which has a debt

of 2,500 billion euros,
you'll see.

And you think

that I'm going to add to it by accepting
this poor allowance?

Let's leave it at that.

-Stay put.

Find me a job

in a cesspool, a sewer,
work your ass off, but find it.

-We have this
we haven't brought in yet.

*Radio in Danish

-Is someone coming to get me?

-They'll be here soon!

-No! Hey!

Oh yeah.
I'm gonna call that bitch!

I'll show you.

-Ah, here.

We'll let it cool down.

Give the gentleman
to the gentleman.

-Here you go.

Sign bottom right.

-Oh, well.

Coming soon, coming soon.

Damn!

Oh, boy.

Jesus Christ,

Jesus,

Mary Magdalene,

the Magi in Galilee,

Saint-Preux,
Saint Maclou, Saint-Yorre,

Saint-Marc, Saint-Lazare,
RATP, SNCF,

I don't give a damn who you want,
but you have to send someone,

because it's really peeling.

Thanks a lot.

-At least there's no radar here!

-Wow.

-It's the white door.

-Yes, I...

-My name is

Fabienne.
Welcome to ERB, Vincent.

Has it been explained to you
what you have to do here?

-Tell me again.
-So, your job

is to protect
the station's researchers

from polar bear attacks.

With global warming,
the ice is melting,

bears are getting hungrier
and we're seeing more and more attacks.

The less there is to eat,
the more we get in each other's faces.

Classic,
they haven't invented a thing. Here you go.

Here's to Fabrice's
Fabrice's farewell party.

We had a good one.

We had cases of aquavit
of aquavit from Finland,

we put on
good cartouches... Whatever.

Can you see it? There.

The bear grabs him right there,

because it's the most painful.
Just like dogs,

they go straight for the crotch.

Have you ever had a dog
ever sniffed your dick?

-Yes, I have.

-Well, that's that.

She blows.

Those bugs are hungry.

-Can we stop the video?

-It takes time
to get into the swing of things.

Let me reassure you,
Fabrice has been very well stitched up.

The Danes are
the first in Europe

in genital surgery.

They've even upgraded it a bit.
I say that if it happens to you.

I've got one that's a bit softer

where a bear puts
a potato to Evelyne,

our snowmobile manager.
-Thanks, that'll do.

That'll do.

What are you doing here?

-Research...
on the melting ice cap.

We're extracting core samples

of ice...

to monitor
climate variations.

-Great.
-Have you seen the psychologist?

-There's a psychologist?
-Yes, there's a psychologist.

It's not easy living here.

6 months of darkness, 6 months of daylight,
we're not cut out for it.

Marie-Gabie, can you pass me the salt?

-You're signing a certificate
of non-accreditation. Here you go.

-In the report,

you are described
as resolute and determined,

inclined to adapt
and sacrifice.

-Yes, but no.

-The researcher you have to work with
will be disappointed.

-He's a researcher?
-Yes, he's a researcher.

-I! will look for someone else.

Thank you. Come on, hop.

-Stanislas,
for the appraisal appointment.

-That's right, your researcher,

mademoiselle Brébant.

-Hello, Miss Brébant. Éva.

-Vincent Peltier.

-Unfortunately,
I've just spoken

to Vincent

who told me that...

-No. He said
he was resolute, determined,

inclined to adapt
and sacrifice.

Soft music

Been here long?

-6 years.

In the beginning, it was a bit hard,

but you get used to it,
it's so beautiful.

It's beautiful, but totally desolate.

The ice cap is melting
and the waters are rising.

Last summer, it was 25 degrees.

People don't give a damn.

-These are samples
that we're going to use

to detect the presence of chemicals
such as microplastics.

These are waste products
from large-scale distribution.

-It's crazy.

-Last week...
-Yeah?

-You know what I found?
Right here,

1 m from your knees.
-I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

-A curling iron.

-I didn't do it.

-We throw away 500 million tons
of plastic a year,

we produce ten tonnes
per second.

It should be considered
as a noble material.

Cells in it
are over 2 million years old.

-In a matter of moments, she had
transformed hell into paradise.

-Oh, dear...

Look how beautiful he is.

An ursus marinus.
Prepare the anesthetic,

we'll put him to sleep.

Did you take the sedative?

-I've taken one every morning
since I got here.

-No, but for the rifle.

-Right, sorry.

-You have to come closer.

But come closer.

He blows.
Yes, come on, it won't eat you!

-Yes, it is. Yes, it is.
-Technically, it can eat you.

-Good for you,
you're a good confidence builder

your teams.
-Take the shot.

Pull!
He shoots.

-Did I get it?
-I don't think so.

Roar
-What's he doing?

-You told me you could shoot!

-Damn, but I shoot quail,
not bears!

-It's easier to miss

a quail than a bear!

Wait, wait, wait!

Watch this. You got it.

-Let me see it.

-You got it!

-Did you believe it when I played
the scared guy at first?

-You faked it?

-Yeah, I did.
-I was really scared.

6 months with someone like that.

-I love shooting.
-You got me!

I usually hit the bull's-eye,
but I didn't want to.

How much time do we have

before he wakes up?
-A good half-hour.

-What are you doing?
-Taking blood.

Although, of course.

The purest genetic map
is obtained through... sperm.

Here.

I'll leave you two men alone.
I'm afraid of getting too attached.

Yes, this is it.

-José?

Do you want to hear

the remorse and redemption
of a man down?

Shhh...

-Mme Bailliencourt?

*-Yes, Mr Peltier.
These working conditions, the cold,

the wind, the distance,
not easy, all that?

-No, I'm holding up.
We caught shrimp,

"we took ice samples

and jerked off a bear.

Mom, everything's fine, I swear.

I'm acclimating perfectly.

Knock.

Wait, I'll leave you.

Yes?

-I'm saying goodbye, I'm leaving.

-I'm stupid, you're off,
you're going back to Sweden.

-Yeah, I am.

What are you going to do?
-I'll do nothing.

I'm gonna type "single bear
banquise" on the Internet

and let things
happen.

-But do you want to come with me?

-I don't want to get
between you and your boyfriend.

-I don't have a boyfriend.

-You don't?

-How long will it take you to pack your bag?

-I'll hurry.

-OKAY.

"Angeleyes"
(ABBA)

-Oh yeah!
-Yeah.

There it is.

-You've been around the world.

-Yes, but not sightseeing.
I go where there's an emergency.

Where I can make myself useful.
-Of course you can. You're kidding, right?

-It's my African period.

In fact, I spent 2 years
with the Masai

in Kenya.
I left my heart there.

And this is Babu.
That's Saïd's dad.

How are you, darling?

-Yes, I'm fine.

-I just missed you.

You going to do your homework?
-Yeah, I am.

-That's nice.

This is my Thai period.

And this is Benyat.

Emily's dad.

-Hiya!
-Hi there!

-Coucou...

-What a beautiful smile!

This is my Swedish period.

This is Gunnar.

Lars's dad.

-Here we go. And that's it!

-Don't be a stalker, you.
-Lucky you!

-Ah, that's Carole.

-She a friend?

-A little more than a friend,
we've been together 2 years

with Carole.

-I see.

She's a great friend.
Beep

-Yeah! Shit, the oven.
I'll let you get on with it.

Vincent,

can you come and help me?

-Yeah, I'm just finishing
riding period. I'll be there in a minute.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Bon appétit.

-Lord, bless this meal,
those who prepared it,

and bring bread
to those who have none. Amen.

-Amen.

Bon appétit.

Emily recites a prayer in Thai.

Bon appétit.

Saïd recites a prayer in Arabic.

Super. And you.

-I'm an atheist.

-Well, that's shorter.

Come on.

A door opens.

-Hi, I'm Gunnar.
-Hi, Gunnar.

How are ya?

I'm fine, how are you?

-I'm fine.

It's Gunnar,

Lars's dad.

-Right.
Yeah, no, I didn't recognize him.

without his clothes.

-You know, nudity here,

is like putting on slippers.

-If you say so.

Does he want my herring with yogurt?

-Would you like some herring?
-No, thanks, I've got my egg.

-Ah.

-I won't be back tonight.
I'll see you tomorrow.

-See you tomorrow!

He won't be staying with us tonight.

-What a shame!

As a result,

as far as I know,

how is the organization going?

Does he live here? You tell me,
when it comes to laundry, he's no slouch.

-Not for long, he's getting married.

-Vincent?

How old are you?

-I'm 45.

-Do you have a girlfriend?

-Emily, we don't ask
these kinds of questions.

-Don't care. I don't care.
No, I don't have a girlfriend.

-I think Vincent
wants to copulate with Mommy!

-That's enough!

Apologize.

-I'm so sorry.

Soft music

-Don't you lock your door?
-It doesn't matter.

-He's good.
-Since he was little.

-You've got kids,

very small, you feel.

-We put a ball
and off we went.

-Oh, yeah.

Shouts of joy

-He's doing Thierry Henry.

He did the...

-What does he do?

Whistle

But he's completely stupid.
There's a hand.

When there's no hand,
there's no hand.

Saïd, he didn't see the hand.
Why did you do that?

-You have to respect the rules,
Vincent.

-These 5 words
by a 12-year-old

were like an electric shock to me.

In Kichwa

-He doesn't understand, "electric shock".

-Ah, yes, I have an idea.

I just don't know. You tell him:

"Transformation." And that's it.

Voilà.

He's trying to say "transformation."

That's what he's trying to say. That's what it is. That's it.

He's got the ear.
He's not chief for nothing.

He repeats.

-And you say it well.

He's got a problem, doesn't he?

-It's on a loop, yes.

-Transformation.

-That's it. May I continue?

Basically, I was changing.

Flute

What do the signs say?

-It says: "Le grand concert
against pollution."

-What's it about?

The more music they play,

the less pollution
in the world?

-Yes, that's right.

-That's it, that's it.

-NO, THERE!

-The children had revealed
the most beautiful part of myself.

This is it.

Sorting garbage.
-It's cool.

-Telling stories.

Make pancakes.

As they said to me:
"Vincent,

"let's not
simple things.

At that moment in my life,
there was only one thing missing.

But you, Eva, sentimentally,

a new relationship,
isn't really your thing?

-Not really.

I've already got 3 kids.

With the back and forth,
it's already complicated and here,

it's a crazy job.
-Yeah, it is.

-I'm saving my sexual energy
for the ice cap.

-You're not on it,

right now?
-No, I'm not on it.

Not at all.

-OH...
-But unfortunately,

someone saw that in addition
my salary of 1,600 euros,

I was allocated

an allowance of 900 euros
for transportation,

450 euros expatriate expenses...

-132 euros in clothing expenses
due to extreme conditions,

3,700 euros monthly salary,

around 40,000 euros a year.

An astronomical expense
for the surprisingly successful

of a single civil servant
to Greenland.

Bacheron's tasty calculation,
so that's me,

who spends more

to spend less.

Was it you
who transferred that Peltier over there?

-Yes, we did.

-Yes. Is your name
in the article there?

-Uh.... no, I don't know.
I didn't read the whole thing.

-How could you?

-I don't know,
I didn't read the whole article.

-It's not there.

You can see

your face in the photo
in the article?

-Uh... no.

-Eh no. Why not?

Because it's not there.

Oh, well.

And there's my face,

do you see it,
my face?

Do you see it?
-Yes, I see it.

-It's annoying.

It's very annoying.

My mouth is 2 fingers
to the Quai d'Orsay.

If Foreign Affairs
escape me,

I'll take a world map,

turn it around

and stick my finger
randomly on it,

and I'll mutate you

to the place of the finger.

Get out of here!

Vincent laughs.

-This story
is a real fairy tale.

-That's the word.
-Yes, it is.

Unfortunately, it's over.
You'll have to get back.

-What if I refuse?

-I find my Peltier
that I love, my champion.

You know the principle?
You sign your resignation.

You accept this check
for 40,000 euros.

Yes, it goes up.
And you live your Nordic bliss

with your girlfriend, her bears
and her ice packs.

She laughs.

-No, she doesn't.

-Then you're stirred.

I've found a comfortable position.
Almost a crush.

-In France?

-Yes, in France.

-Will you excuse me?

Do you mind?

-I'm in a meeting.
*-It's very important.

-Well, hold on.

I'm taking my break. Let's hear it.

-They're at it again,
I'm stuck.

-Calm down, kid.
Do you have any vacation time left?

-That's got nothing to do with it.
I'm telling you...

-Shhh. I repeat.
Do you still have time off?

No, wait a minute. I'm on break.

-Yes.
*-Put them all down immediately.

There's a waiting period.

We can't transfer you
if you're on leave.

-Okay, I'll do that. Thank you, Michel.

-No, it's France
who thanks you.

Back to work, bye.

-You're putting off
an unavoidable deadline.

Crap!

Enjoy your last 3 months.
After that, it's all over.

Won't you help me?
-I can't help you.

I'm on vacation.

What if something happens? Lumbago,

a sprain,
I cut my finger

with one of your leaves,

bleed to death.
-Good for you. Be smart.

Get smart.

You know the old saying?

We pay the musicians
at the end of the ball.

-The manufacturing process

porcelain: firing,

drying and glazing.

It's all important.

-And for the temperature of...

-Hi, guess who this is?

-Karl!

How are ya?

-I'm fine. It's been a long time.

-What the hell is that? Who is it?
-Mom's friend.

In Swedish

-Vincent,

this is Karl.

He's my good friend.
He's like a brother to me.

We can say anything, do anything.

-Hi, guys!

-Hi, there.

-Karl suggests
rafting tomorrow. You can keep

the kids?

-Not a bit.

-So cool!

-So kül" too.

Just when I had become
a man of impeccable civic-mindedness,

respectful of others and benevolent

to the planet,
a major problem confronted me.

Jealousy.

-Good! CS

Thank you very much.

-Thank you very much.
-Kisses, kids.

-BYE, MOM.

-Ready to paddle?
-Ready.

They laugh.

He blows.

Mocking laughter

-Ah yes, still.

A door opens.

How's it going?

-I'm fine.

-What do you mean, no?
-It's Karl.

He's had an accident.
-What kind of accident?

-We'd been letting the current guide us
by the current for 30 minutes.

In Swedish

And then...

the rafting got stuck

against a rock.

Karl tried to pull
the raft away from the rock with his foot.

-What happened?
-His sole slipped.

I! screams.

-Oh.....

-Crotch caught
against the rock...

-My testicles!

-We had to pull him out.

-My testicles!

-And it was really
windy.

-My testicles!
He screams.

-You've got to be kidding me!

-My testicles!

-He's in hospital,
waiting for news,

but the doctors are afraid

that he won't be able to use his.

-His?
-His...

-Ah!

That's a real shame,
a story like that.

I was a different man.

I was more discourteous,
disrespectful, jealous.

I had changed.

I was a new man.

My parents had also seen

how well I integrated
to my new life.

-Vincent, you can.

-Ah oui. I'm so sorry.

-What are you gonna do
when your vacation's over?

-I'm going to stay here.

The Swedes

are civic-minded, efficient,

serene.

There's no entitlement here.
No one is superior to another.

These are people
you can talk to.

-Do you have a fever?
-Wait, I've got a thermometer.

-Oh, damn.

No, what's wrong?

Voilà!

These must be French.

Pig people!

A disgrace!

-Give me the thermometer,
I must have a fever.

-Say, darling.
-What's up?

-Tomorrow's wedding: skirt or pants?

-Denim skirt.

With the red shirt.
-OK.

-Inger's here for your class.

Swedish accent
-Can you tell me what time it is?

In Swedish
-It's half past 10.

-That's great!

-There's no more hot water.

Hot water is available
between 6am and 9.15am.

After that, it's cold water.

to save energy.

-Will it take long?

-But it's very good

for the body

to shower in cold water.

-Bravo, that's very good.
-Thank you.

Could you please tell my son
to go fuck himself?

In Swedish, of course.

-I didn't get that.

-Your father advises you
to go fuck yourself.

-Those French.

They're so vulgar.

In Swedish
-You can kiss each other.

Applause

Traditional Swedish music

-I! has adapted well.
-Too much.

-Au revoir, Martine.
GOOD-BYE, MARTINE.

-Bye, kids.

GOOD-BYE, JEAN-PAUL.

-My parents have run away.

But I was more and more convinced
that I wanted to stay.

I hadn't considered
one thing.

The length of the Swedish winter.

Good evening, Stina.
-Good evening Vincent.

-6 months during which
evening darkness alternates with...

morning darkness.

Hello Stina.
-Hello Vincent.

-And it plays on people's morale.

*-What's killing these birds

*I dump 6 billion kg

It changes channel.

*-I can't remember
who said that wonderful thing.

"France is the most beautiful kingdom
after that of heaven."

"I miss France painfully
as a part of myself.

"Do you know what I miss most?

*Smells.

"We don't say
"smells" anymore.

"Perfumes, fragrances...

*Those are words
that don't fuck.

*What I miss is...

*the smell of hay in Châteauroux
when I was a kid.

*warm horse manure

"dropped on a small road
in Normandy.

*A little souvenir
for the one who comes after.

*The little black
in an unwashed cup,

"at the counter of a bouge
in the 19th arrondissement of Paris.

"France means firecrackers
that burst ladies' eardrums

"at the July 14th ball.

*It's a 2CV coughing

"Cicadas,

*France is everywhere.

*The Enlightenment,

It's a thing, though.

Sorry, this is ridiculous.

I left my blue sea

-I thank you. Goodbye.

-Their memories awaken

-Excuse me.

I only have one bottle. May I?

-And I've only got a shopping cart full.
No!

-In France, when you have an article,
we let it pass as a courtesy.

-What, you don't get it?

I don't want you to pass, you moron!
Get out of my way!

"Stik"?

"Stik" too.
What are you Swedes going to do?

Deny me Krisprolls,

I'll take your musty ABBA records

-Yeah, yeah, yeah!
I'm gonna kick your ass.

-Come on!

How you do it

your foie gras?

As far as I'm concerned, I can smell the fat,
but I can't smell the liver.

-Ah.

My wife does.

With momentum.

I've put ice cubes
in Bordeaux,

because...

corked.

Quiche lorraine for madame.

-My old man.

-Steak tartare for monsieur.
-Thank you for your kindness.

-Come on, let's go to bed,
it's getting dark.

-I want to go back to France, Eva.

*-Suite à un mouvement social
at Charles-de-Gaulle airport,

*flight 4567 has been announced

*with a delay of approximately 4 h.

-That's right.

I feel at home already.

My new family and I
have left for France.

Apart from my parents

overjoyed at my return,

someone else

waiting for me.

-I can't wait for Peltier
to discover his new position.

-And so am I.
-I've found company housing.

-You're too generous.
-The pleasure of giving, the joy of receiving.

-Isn't it?
-Like the flowers, José.

-Ah....
-You don't get it.

Go on.

-Mme Bailliencourt had found us
a cosy nest for all 5 of us.

I was close to my new job.

The civil service
intervenes in a number of areas.

subtly varied.

Beeps

-Where's the E?

-Near the Z.
-Right.

-Send.

Voilà.

What did we get last night?
2 deaths,

3 fires in the west wing,

2 strangulation attempts
on agent...

I told them
not to strangle anymore.

Let's go! Let's go!

To the both of us.

Oh, the resume!

La Santé, Fleury-Mérogis,

Fresnes,

les Baumettes,

high security area,

the Modelo in Bogota,

very impressive.

It's nice here, we have everything.

Schizophrenia, bipolar,

murderers, sex maniacs.
We even have a cannibal.

-The bitch.

-I beg your pardon?

-No, nothing.

Bursts of inmate voices

-The files are complete.

And the level of the 3 is very good.

It's great to have
such a lively group.

I've often noticed
that children...

they were livelier, more precocious.

-The kids?

-Children. Adopted. They cogitate

about their origins.

Inside, everything moves faster.

-But they're not adopted.
They're mine.

-Ah...

So several daddies.

-I guess so.

-One man.

then another,
then another, then another...

Such is life.

Well...

All three are registered.

Saïd the taller goes to Jean Jaurès.

Emily is

admitted to Paul Langevin,

and Lars,

he's going to Saint-Exupéry, my darling.

-Couldn't they all be
in the same school?

We live at the same address.

-No, unfortunately. No.

-Is there no recourse?

-Private.
But it's not free, it's private.

-I'll take Lars and Emily.

We'll take the 153, they'll drop us off
at the 256 stop, which is perfect.

Then Saïd, he'll go on his own.

I'll take him the first day.

But he'll go on his own after that.

-In Limoges, I would have sorted this out for you
in two seconds.

-We're not in Limoges.
-No, we're not in Limoges.

It's like everything else. It takes time
of adaptation, we'll get there.

-Yes, we will.

And you, how was
the first day? Not too hard?

-No, on the whole, very courteous.

-Beat it!

-A respectful exchange.

-We're gonna burn your ass.

-Very tolerant.

-Shut your mouth, you son of a bitch.

-Lots of positive things,

very rewarding.

-Oh, yeah? Really?
You must be looking forward to going back.

-You bet.

You think...

There you are.

Come on, hop. Your hat.

-Kids, let's go.

-Kisses, darling.

-Let's go, let's go!
-Hi, guys.

-Just in case.

Soft music

-Monsieur, monsieur!

I'm sorry, we missed the streetcar.

-You should have been on time.

-It's really interesting.

-Thanks a lot. But the principle,

is that wildlife can
reclaim urban space.

Foxes...
-The foxes! There's one over there.

-To create

places in parks
where man and animal

learn to live together.

Without domesticating each other.

-Yes, without domesticating each other...

I love nature. My husband and I
we're always at Center Parc.

-I'm an optimistic person,
Vincent, but right now,

the Paris region,

it's hard for me.

-We'll get there.

-How are you?

-Of course I'm okay.
Why are you asking me this?

-I mean, how's your work going?

-It's fine.
Don't worry, big guy.

-I WON'T.

-Hold on, Lars.

It's not okay, actually.

-In Sweden, we say:

"En man anpassar sig till allt."

Which means:
"man adapts to everything."

At your old job in Limoges,

there must have been one area
where you were strong?

-Yes, there was. There was one area
where I wasn't bad.

Here's your hunting license, Martin.

-Oh, yes, it is. Sorry, I had.
-Oh, that's okay.

Truffles!

Oh! You didn't have to.

-In your new job,

it's exactly the same.

To get you through it,

use your best asset.

-Hello.

-Thank you for your time.
-(Nas) Thank you. Have a nice day.

-Thank you for your time.

-Is it for the kitchen?

-Yes, you know us,
so there's no need to worry.

-Eva, stop, this is ridiculous.

-I can't condone
your little shenanigans.
find you a part-time job in accounting.

-Lucky me,
prison accounting.

Which can become full-time.

Full-time?

In prison?
-Yes, in prison.

-Kids, let's go.

-Eva, come back, this is ridiculous.

Eva.

Children, oh, oh!

Please listen to me.

I can't live without you.

-Can't you?

Then stop your functionary
and come with me.

-I'll go with you.

I'll quit and come with you,

because I love you.

Happy music

Thank you for your support.

-They congratulate you.
-I understand.

Thanks, but...

love guided my choice.

In kichwa

What does it say?

-He says you lied.

-I never lied.

I told the truth.

-He's a shaman.

He can read your soul.

-You're just telling me this now?

Vincent clears his throat.

It's true that...

If we really stop
on the facts alone...

maybe it didn't
quite like that.

-Stop being a functionary
and come with me.

-I love you very much,

but life is full of constraints.
It's not all about feelings.

-4 tickets, please.

-Residence allowance,

social works committee,
bonuses, Apetiz card...

-Universal service employment vouchers,
family allowances.

-See?

-You're pathetic.

-You know what I can do?

Use my last year
of military service

to get a raise.
-Get started, sir.

-Eva!

You can't do this to me.

Yes, well.
It's easy for you to judge.

What's the gentleman's profession?

In kichwa

-He's a peccary hunter.

-What's a peccary?

-It's like a small boar.
Big, but a little boar.

-Ah. Very nice, very nice.

We imagine: every month,

you hunt,

you bring home a peccary.

In January, you shoot an arrow,
you bring home a peccary.

In February, an arrow,

a peccary.

December arrives,

and then you shoot an arrow,

you bring back two peccaries.

Has that ever happened to you?

It's called the 13th month.

Anyone who has never experienced
this extreme joy

can't understand my struggle.

-Good evening.

-I've got just the thing.

-Just a moment. I have an offer
you won't be able to refuse.

-You've already made it, haven't you?

We're going to try a new cocktail.
-It's very original.

-Yes, it is.
-Thank you very much.

Well, cheers!
-Cheers.

-We're sticking with prison.

Just like prison.

-I understood.

-I'm going to confide in you.
Deep down, I like you.

-I'm going to confide in you.
Deep down, I don't.

-Good old Vincent!

We drink. When we drink,
everyone's friendly.

-You'll have to drink a lot, then.
-That's fine with me.

-That goes for me too.

We had a fight and...

she left with the kids.
-Oh!

Definitely.
-Hm.

-Oh, yeah.

-Yeah, you bet.

-But the gourd!

I didn't come empty-handed,
I've got a present.

Yes, you do.

It was lying on the desk,
so I thought, "I'll bring it."

It's the sale. Let's liquidate.

Come on, open it.

-43,000 euros?

-I said to myself, "I'm not
catch him with 3 peanuts."

-You put the whole bowl in.
-I did.

You're hilarious, mind you.

Me, looks plus humor,
it's a winning cocktail.

Careful, now!

Let's sign
and then go crazy.

-I'll get the pen

in the kitchen.
-Phone call.

-Phone?
-Telephone.

Thank you for your time.

- "She's offering me 43,000..."
-Peltier?

-I believe

"I'll accept."

"In Spanish

-I! had it all figured out.

You can say whatever you want.

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

Signal
What's up?

Oh, no!

Vincent, no!

I! send.

All right, come on. "Sick leave
now 3 weeks."

Sick day,

now!

I! Send.

Oh... Where's my Fidel?

Good man.
And the parterre, opposite...

Are you asleep?

She doesn't care.

-Vincent...

When I was 8, at the end-of-year gala
dance school gala, I was fucking

crushed glass into my friends' slippers
so they'd hurt themselves

so that I could perform
better performances than them.

Good night.

-To occupy my leave, I went home
home with my heart at half-mast.

Meanwhile,

at Bercy, Bailliencourt
was still after me.

-Monsieur le ministre? I beg your pardon.

In the Peltier case,
I've found a solution.

As soon as he comes off sick leave,
I transfer him.

-To Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon?
With you?

-I don't understand, sir.

-I turned my daughter's globe around...
my daughter's world map, and as luck would have it,

my finger stopped
on Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon. Funny?

Put on your reflective vest
to help the penguins cross.

At the crosswalk.

You've been transferred.

-Hello....
-Well, gentlemen.

Well, ladies,
otherwise we're in trouble.

Thank you for coming.

Civil service reform
completed smoothly.

-It comes from the Ministry.

-Where am I being sent this time?

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Oh, that's good.
That's good, that's good!

That's so good!

-On the way back

of Vincent!

-Everything was back to normal.

At long last,
everything was back to normal...

I thought about her every day.

Melancholy music

-Ah! They're finally
to recognize my problem

carpal tunnel
as a disability.

-There you go!

-Hello?

Wait, hold on.

-I was angry,
I didn't want to tell you.

And then I thought
it wouldn't be fair.

I'm pregnant.

-And...

May I ask whose?

-All I can tell you is,
he hasn't moved in 9 months.

Not a knee, not an arm.

*Yes, Vincent.

This is your child.

-And here I am,

in front of you, Coca.

Ladies and gentlemen...

In a few hours,
I'm going to be a father.

Yes.

In Kichwa

What does it say?

-He's saying you've led
a miserable life

thinking only of your privileges

and by doing so,
you've sealed your fate.

But he also says:

"A child can change a man's life
of a man, no matter how pitiful."

-Ah... So...

I agree with the 2nd part.

On the whole, I agree.

-Learn from your mistakes

"and be a better man."

You're free to go.

-Thank you, Coke! Thanks, everyone!

Thank you, everyone!

Hey, everyone.

I'm gonna name my baby after you.

Well, as a middle or third name,
because Coca isn't easy.

It works for you, though.

-Sorry, but I've got the meter
still running, so.

-Oh, damn!

-We'll be in touch.

In Kichwa

We spent a real moment
of sharing, of promiscuity...

-I'm a bit stressed.

-I'll be fine.
It'll be a boy.

-She's...

She's beautiful.

-What did you call her?
-I was waiting for you.

-It's original for a girl.

-No, I thought of Ines.
It means "purity".

I'm glad to see you.

-It's good to see you too.

-Did you give your notice?

-3 months parental leave.

A doctor friend of mine added

typhus for me, malaria for you.

It extends it by 6 months.
If you prefer typhus,

we switch, I'm not picky.

And for Inès, we'll give it to you.

-That's not very funny.
There's no vaccine here.

She could really
catch something.

-There's no vaccine?

-Do you see where we are?
Vaccines come in dribs and drabs,

there's not enough medicine
and equipment.

-My daughter is not a priority?

In Spanish
My sister!

I'm home.

Please listen to me.

This is going to go fast.

First things first.

I really like caregivers.

And second.

Give me your hand. For you.

-It's a donation to the hospital.

-Gracias, gracias.

-What donation?

Look around you,
they're all volunteers here.

-I just want to make it right.

-Give it to me.

Give it to me.

Come, my love.

You want to fix it?
You're going to take

your stuff, your stupid papers,

your arrogant
your arrogance,

and off you go.

A door opens.

-Welcome to the Quai d'Orsay.

-You'll have to excuse me.

-No, I understand.

I do this to a lot of women.

And to some men too,
Jean-François.

-Peltier?

*-Mrs Bailliencourt,
what can I do for you?

-It's crazy what you've done.

*-Ah really?
You received a message?

-How much did you give them?

*-50 000.
I love round numbers,

"I told you,
but you're not listening.

-Did you tell them it was
from me? Well, not that, but...

*-I don't care where it came from.

*In administration, we think
others before ourselves.

*That's the way
we've been taught, isn't it?

-The expression is a little outdated,

but you're a real piece of work.

*-You're another one,
as I've already told you.

I'll leave you to it.

I'm at work,
I can make a personal call.

-Do you know that the purest
is obtained by...

-Yes, I do know.

Leave us to our relationship.
If it's you, you'll get attached.

-Yes. So, since we don't have
no more money for music,

because we've spent it all,

I'll do the talking
at the end of the credits.

I'll accompany you.
I'll furnish, as they say.

And so...

So...
For me, it was a great shoot.

I really enjoyed myself,
because...

We went to
a lot of different places.

I made
lots of new friends

among the technicians,
actors too.

Did you see that?
fifty or so actors.

It's been great. It really was.

Afterwards, I'm not saying,
there's always one or two assholes.

Out of 50 people,
you can't have only good people.

I have a theory about assholes.

I think you should always
the glass half full in life.

It's that the asshole
brings out the best in good people.

In other words,
at the same time, I say to myself:

"Yes, he really pissed me off
putting a bullet in my temple,

"but those with whom
I had a good time, well.

"I'd put a cross
on a rock, really.

"I'll remember it with pleasure."

If not, what else?

We don't talk much about the canteen.
Very good.

Me, I like
light stuff.

I tend
to throw myself at anything that...

It's true that in the beginning,

when I started out in the film business,
I wasn't paying attention.

And as a result,
I could have a lasagne.

I like dishes that are a bit rich.

It's true that playing with a lasagne
in the belly, that's not good.

You can see it, you can feel it.
You play mushy.

As I was a director,
I asked for light dishes.

And from time to time,
when there was a birthday party,

someone would leave us,

to go
on a better-paid shoot,

we'd have a little going-away party

and that's when I asked
something a little richer, a dish...

And that's it. What did I say?
The atmosphere, the canteen...

Great weather. Great weather.

There you go. I think I've
I've come full circle.

And good shooting.

I mean, good movie.
No, you've seen it.

Have a nice life.

We wish each other
the rest of your lives.

And for the older ones,
the best of luck for the rest of their lives. That's all from us.

See you soon.
