Okay, recap.

I have a really cute match on Tinder.

Oh, but I know him. That's Teun.

Why can't they do this at home?

-You don't have to watch.
-There's the door.

Yes, what?

Good morning.

Good morning.

Oh, my heart. This is so cute.

HOMOPHOBIC ASSAULT
AMSTERDAM COUPLE BEATEN UP

Come on, people.

I can't believe this is still happening.

Did you see this?

-What?
-Oh my God.

-But that's…
-Yeah, damn.

They were just walking home from a club.
Bizarre.

Fucking hell.

wtf I know the one on the left
am so fed up with this

Isn't there something we can do?

Like a protest?

Oh my God, yes.

-That won't help anyway.
-Yes, it will.

A protest brings shit like this
to people's attention.

People forget that this happens.
Seriously, also here in Amsterdam.

They may hear about it sometimes
and think: Oh, that's terrible.

Maybe they share something
on social media,

but then it's back to their fucking…

simple straight lives.

Dancing in Disco Dolly.

Or watching fucking Woody Allen films.

And kissing in the street
without getting assaulted.

Seriously,
I'm going to organise something.

Right now?
Off to save the world from homophobia?

Yes, darling, the gays are waiting for me.

-"Gay is okay"?
-Yeah, I know. Stupid.

Why don't you meet
and discuss it at the bar?

Yeah, good idea.
You're such a pillar of support.

I think it's great that you're doing this.

Yes, and it feels really good
to actually do something for once.

-Yeah.
-We see pictures like this so often.

I don't always like to walk hand-in-hand
past a group of men with you at night.

But we never do anything about it.

No, and why should we?
It's them that should change, not us.

But that won't happen
if we don't take action.

-So yeah, I'm an activist now.
-Hot.

Want some?

No, thanks.

What are we gonna do today?
Maybe go to a museum?

No, I'm going to Anne
to discuss the protest.

-Are you coming?
-I don't think so.

Of course you are.

No, but you go ahead.
Maybe I'll join you later.

Come on, it's also just good fun.
We can do something afterwards.

Okay.

So do we also want to make
"I am gay/bi/straight/a person"?

-That…
-Good morning, Suffragettes.

-Hey, darling.
-Hey Saar.

-I think we should.
-But how many signs do we have?

Thank God.

-Coffee?
-Yes, please.

We still have…
Otherwise I'll get more cardboard.

-Anyway, this one for sure.
-This one for sure.

All Max talks about is the protest.

The same with Anne. She stays up
until two writing down slogans.

It's so stupid, but really don't feel
like participating in a protest.

-Like, it makes me feel ill.
-You don't have to go.

Do I smell coffee?
Can we have some too?

-Make your man some coffee, housewife.
-Go away.

It's gonna take a while.

-Writing a book is hard.
-Yeah, but you'll manage.

You'll write a bestseller.
Just start somewhere.

Sure, that's easy.

Hey, when will you finally get hired
by Cecilia Castillo?

I have another interview tomorrow morning.

-Really?
-Yeah, didn't I tell you?

I don't think so.

Oh, yeah. Maybe you did.

-Anyway, I'm sure she'll hire you.
-Right?

Oh, this is gonna be so perfect.
You'll be an architect here

and I'll have written a book
published by a real publisher.

And that protest
can also really take off, I think.

-What?
-Nothing.

-It's just nice to see you like this.
-How?

Passionate.

Yeah, it's easier to start
if everything else is going well.

But that never lasts.

-Yummy.
-Here you go, guys.

-Right.
-Thank you, ma'am.

Okay, let's see.
So a permit is not required. Good news.

We only have to inform town hall.
You did that, right?

-Yes.
-Great.

Anne, tomorrow I'll talk to Oscar about
giving us a deal for banners and flyers.

-You want to come?
-Oh my God. Yeah, okay.

-Okay, thanks,
-I get to make a radio item.

-So that's happening?
-Yes.

I'll bring equipment and interview people.

-Very nice.
-Thank you.

Okay, the plan.
We'll gather at the Homomonument.

And we'll stay there. It won't be
a march. I was thinking about a sit-in.

Yeah, a peaceful and non-violent way
of making a statement.

I'm already plugging it on social media,
but we're already getting so much hatred.

-Really?
-"All gays on a stake" and shit like that.

Jesus, that's fucked up.

That only shows how important it is
that we're doing this.

I've been in touch with the guys that got
beaten up. They know about our initiative.

They support it all the way
and will try to be there.

-Aren't they too injured for that?
-Yeah, they are.

One has a broken rib and a minor
concussion, the other is a bit better off.

But they'll do their best
and I'm sure they'll make it.

That only makes it more crucial
to do this the right way.

So what else is still needed?

Let's see…

-Is everything okay?
-Fine.

Are you coming to the protest?

-I don't know yet.
-Like I said, you don't have to go.

Yeah, and then what?
Max is really passionate about it.

-We're just really different.
-Yeah.

Max is so obsessed that he doesn't see
that I am busy with other things.

Like looking for a job.
Our priorities are so different.

I feel you. Anne is so preoccupied
she didn't even ask how my interview went.

How did your interview go?

Okay, I'm going to tell you something
you can't tell An.

-Spill the tea, sis.
-I was offered a job in North America.

I have to respond within two weeks.

-Wow, congratulations.
-Yeah.

So are you going to take it?

Okay, maybe you should discuss it
with Anne first.

Maybe you should discuss
your problem with Max first.

Whoa.

Yes, okay, I'll talk to mine,
but will you talk to yours?

-Okay.
-Okay.

I don't get it. I don't see
why you're being so difficult.

Don't you understand how important
this is, for me and so many other people?

Do you want to force me to do something
I don't feel comfortable with?

-That's fucking manipulative.
-Jesus, Teun, don't be so dramatic.

Who's being dramatic here?
But you know what? Go ahead.

Play the hero,
if that's what gets you off.

You know, Teun, forget it,
if it's too much trouble for you.

You never stood up for something,
so why start now?

I don't expect anything from you.

Yikes.

So you want to print flyers
and signs here for free,

-that you'll design during working hours?
-Yes.

I can't believe I'm back here.

I don't see what's in it for me.

We'll mention the firm on social media
and your logo will be on the signs.

-And you'll support a good cause.
-Yes.

I'm always in for a good cause,
but this doesn't seem profitable, guys.

Maybe not directly,
but many people will see the signs.

You'll be an ally to the LGBTQ+ community,
which will bring in new clients.

A lot of companies exploit the community
during Pride, but you can actually help.

-Just come back to work here, Anne.
-No, I'm okay.

Right, Oscar. Do we have a deal?

I don't know, guys.

Did you see that picture
that's all over the news?

That's daily stuff for us.

I still can't walk hand-in-hand
in the street with my girlfriend

without getting stared at.

I really feel unsafe sometimes.
That's why we're organizing this protest.

To make people more aware
of what queer people go through.

But if you don't want to, fine.

But then you'll be the office
that won't support a queer organization.

That's bad PR, as you can imagine.

You can always go into sales, Anne.

Oscar, everything looks good on you,
but homophobia…

Okay, well-played.
You guys have a deal.

But keep it within bounds.

And I want to see my logo everywhere.

-Everywhere.
-Absolutely, that's a deal.

-Max has the signs, right?
-Yes.

-And Mom's pin.
-Right, very cute.

I'm proud of you! Good luck!
x Mom

Look at my pretty girlfriend.

-And we're bringing the flyers, right?
-Yeah.

I really get off on this activist Sara.
We should do this more often.

If we really want to do something,
we have to go now.

Yes, let's go.

Oh my God, so many people.

-Is it visible?
-Yeah. Smile!

There, I think.

-There are so many people here.
-I know, it's great.

Dear people, welcome.
Come on up. Take a seat.

First of all… wow.

It's awesome that you've come
in such large numbers.

Give yourself a hand.

And bow.

And we all know why we're here.

Because we still get assaulted.

And called names.

And abused and discriminated against.

And in some countries even murdered.

And it keeps happening,
without anyone doing anything to stop it.

I can't turn that into poetry
or into a beautiful story.

Or into some kind of cool,
hip Hollywood movie.

But what I can do
is stand here and say

that we don't always have to pretend
things are better than they really are.

I'm so fed up with having to be afraid
when I want to kiss my boyfriend

or hug him.

We're talking about loving someone,
for fuck's sake.

Me being gay doesn't
threaten anyone, right?

Then why is it
that we do get threatened?

So, we're going to make this
a peaceful protest.

A loving protest.

We're going to sit here
until the sun goes down.

And we're going to fill
the Homomonument with love.

I want to ask you all to sit down
and talk to each other.

And hold someone,
if anyone needs that.

Then all that is left for me to say is:
Sit that ass down!

-Hey, Teun.
-Hey, Maya.

HOLDING HANDS AGAINST HOMOPHOBIA

-Who's Anne?
-Anne is my right breast.

I'm really happy. And…

-Proud.
-And proud.

-Dear people, can I bother you?
-Sure.

Why are you here this evening?

Because it's no one's business
what's in my pants.

-Except mine, right?
-Touché.

-Have a nice evening.
-You too.

-Ladies, can I ask you something?
-Yeah.

Why are you here?

Because we're fed up with being stared at
when we walk while holding hands.

Or that men ask if they can join in
when we're kissing.

Remember those girls
that got beaten up on a London bus

for refusing to kiss for boys?

That's fucked up.
I want to be able to be myself.

Absolutely, me too. Thanks a lot.

Protesting anti-gay violence.
Is that really still necessary?

I mean, it's going quite well here, right?

-Are you straight?
-Sorry?

Are you straight.

Yes.

Then how can you tell
if it's going "quite well"?

With all respect,
you're not experiencing it.

You might not see it happen,
but it does, and it does too often.

At least half my friends have been
assaulted sometime or other.

I've taken a punch
more than once myself.

So to answer your question:
yes, it's still necessary, unfortunately.

The fact that you don't see it
doesn't mean it's not happening.

So please, guys,
just stop beating people up.

-It's not necessary. Enough already.
-Thanks, Max.

-Good luck today.
-Thanks.

-I'm sorry we can't stay.
-Of course.

Some kids vandalized a tram stop
on the Marnixstraat.

Of course, that's important too.

-Have a nice day.
-Thanks.

-How did it go?
-Oh my God.

It was nerve-wracking,
but I think it went well.

I'm so proud of you.

We're getting a lot of positive reactions,
but also a lot of hatred. Here.

-"Let those fucking faggots stop whining."
-Jesus.

And here: "Put them all on an island,
then they'll just go extinct."

-That's why we're doing this, right?
-Exactly.

It was to be expected.
Fuck them, we did it.

Yes!

-I feel like a beer.
-I'm thirsty.

-Me too.
-To Exit Cafe.

-Reguliers.
-Great.

-I think I'm going home.
-Oh, no. Teun…

Sorry, I'm going to sleep. Have fun.

-Have fun.
-Thanks.

-Sorry.
-Don't worry.

Let him go. We're going to celebrate.

Yeah, let's go.

Hey, back already?

Yes, I…

I rather wanted to be with you.

And?

It's really good.

-Seriously?
-Yes, it draws me in right away.

I can really identify
with the main character.

Is it…

-Are you the main character?
-Well, not necessarily.

Or maybe a little.

I just recognize you in her,
the way she thinks and talks.

-It's really good.
-Oh, thank God.

-Were you afraid I wouldn't like it?
-Yes, of course.

And then you'd leave me and I'd be
a single bartender without a book.

It's really very good.

I'm going to be so busy.
Max wants to start a foundation.

Oh, really?

It feels good to do something
for queer people in the Netherlands.

Everything's going well.
What I'm doing feels good, and you and me.

-Right?
-Yeah.

What?

Okay, I have something to tell you.

Okay.

-Cecilia offered me a job.
-Sweetie, that's great.

In Canada.

Did she just say…

-Canada?
-Yes.

I have to give an answer this week.

Wow.

-Congratulations.
-Thanks, sweetie.

Why am I celebrating my birthday?
It's so stressful.

Have you talked to An?

Not a lot of sex for Anne
if Saar moves to Montreal.

Is she going?

You really think Saar will pass up
on such a chance?

-To Anne.
-Twenty-five summers young.

To Anne.
