[Tristan sighs]

I thought you would never come back.

Too many people in there.

- Did you find him anything? - Yes, arrow crosswords...

There was nothing else for him on shelf.

You could've bought chocolates or flowers...

Too many people.

I'm sorry.

I'll feel better when we leave the city.

'kay.

[Tristan sighs] [keys noise]

[engine starts]

Marc, I really need this job.

We're almost penniless with Astrid.

[Marc on speaker] I can't guarantee anything, but I'll insist.

Well, not too much; I don't want to be seen as a beggar.

[Marc] They'll ask which house you've worked for. What should I reply?

[Tristan] Tell the truth:

I worked 3 years for Sphynx Press and then 2 for Oxford's.

[Marc] Yes, as an assistant. But they want a supervisor.

I got it: too lowly.

[Marc] Loire-Publishing said that 6 months out of work

could be a deal breaker...

This is a vicious circle Marc, you know it well:

the less you find, the more you're blamed for it

so you find even less, and it drags on until...

[Marc] It's not my fault if there are few offers, Tristan!

[Tristan] Is it mine if my last boss went bankrupt?

[Marc sighs]

[Marc] I'll do my best. I keep you informed.

Thank you Marc, sorry.

Bye.

[throws the cellphone]

Is it over?

I think so.

You'll find something else...

Sure, let's hope.

[Astrid's phone ringing]

- Don't pick up? - It's my mum.

She's gonna piss me off...

Of course: she's your mother.

[ringing stops]

Yeah mum?

No we won't be home this week:

we visit Tristan's father at the hospital.

About 6 hours away...

We have a house to stop off tonight.

Tell her she still owes us money!

Nothing, just Tristan saying hello to you.

I don't know when we're back, mum.

Mum, I didn't quit my job voluntarily: I got fired.

Yeah but you know I had an accident straight after!

[Astrid sighs]

Oh thank you mum, that helps me a lot.

Hello? Mum?

Technology gives up the ghost?

[phone closed]

I should buy a new phone.

[Tristan sniggers]

What now?

You've been saying this for one year.

Please come on! Don't start like her.

What did she want?

What d'you think?

She just worries about you...

Still have water?

We've drunk it all.

How many hours left?

I dunno, maybe one.

I have to pee.

I'm not sure we'll get some place before the house...

But there's a little village just before, isn't it?

Yes, we can try it. Maybe the bar will be opened.

It's ok for you?

- Is it? - Yeah sure!

[handbrake]

[engine stops]

- Don't you need help? - No I'm good.

[speaker on the radio in the bulding]

- [Astrid] Where is it? - [Tristan] The entrance is behind.

[sports commentators on the radio]

- Are you ok Tristan? - Yes, it seems quiet...

It's there.

[radio a little louder]

Good evening.

[Tristan]Hi...

[sigh] What do you want?

[glass noise]

Astrid?

A lemonade please.

And for you?

Er...

Your beers are all lagers?

No: the Verscott can be taken white or amber.

Ok...

I'll have a lemonade too.

Where are the toilets please?

Out that way, then right.

Thank you...

You've never been to this house?

[Waiter's finger snapping]

[radio background]

[Tristan sighs]

You came back there after the burial?

Yes once, to set it in order.

Last year?

Last year.

Did you know you would inherit it?

Uncle didn't really talk about these things.

I should try to sell it.

You sure?

Seasonal rental is not very successful in this zone.

I've rent it one week in 6 months. It's much too remote...

Any renovation to do?

Yeah. Windows are jammed, they must be changed...

And the garden too.

I'll call a valuer.

But it would save us... if I could sell it.

Well! almost good news, right?

Can we leave?

[Astrid mutters]

How much is it?

[low engine car] [bass synth music]

It's the house you see there

and tomorrow we'll get to the highway further.

[Tristan's keys]

[Astrid] I hope there are not too many spiders!

[Astrid shivers]

[last echoes of music]

[searching under the leaves]

I told the tenant to leave her keys

in the flowerpot or under the doormat.

Call her?

I don't have her number.

It's in my emails, I need Wi-Fi.

Maybe she left the keys in the letterbox?

The letterbox is below on the pathway

and honestly...

I feel too lazy to walk down.

[bolt]

[shutter opening]

[lock]

[switch]

- After you. - Thanks.

Well...

Great, they didn't do their dishes.

[closes, leaves the key]

Crazy how people make no effort when they leave a house!

Could be worse.

[creaking door]

[discreet innocent music starts]

It's nice here.

It shouldn't be impossible to sell.

- Are you hungry? - Yeah a little.

But I'd like to shower before.

It's upstairs.

- It's alright? - Yeah.

- Wanna be carried? - Don't overdo it!

[little reed pipe melody]

- Let me help you. - Thanks.

There are: the toilets, the first bathroom...

Mind the step.

These are the bedrooms.

Let's take the last one: it has a second bathroom inside.

Which one should I use?

As you want: here is a shower and over there a bathtub.

I put the bag on the bed.

[squeaking door] [soft music continues]

[bag's zips]

- Need anything else? - No I'm fine.

Well...

I'll see if there's something not too expired in the cupboards.

[Astrid giggles] Nice.

Look in my bag, maybe there are still sandwiches!

[Tristan]Ok!

[undoes her orthopaedic shoe]

[breathes out]

[shard in the washbasin]

[sigh]

Tristan be careful! There's a broken glass in the back bathroom floor.

[Tristan downstairs] What did you say?

Watch out for the glass shards in the little bathroom!

[Tristan downstairs] Oh ok, I'll clean up later!

[low frequencies louder]

[closing door]

[Astrid moves things]

[water in tub]

[low frequencies end]

We still have pasta if you want.

Thanks, that's enough.

Don't you take your...

The shrink said I could try to reduce.

Great.

- Is she back? - Who?

You know... The other?

[Astrid sighs]

Let's say...

She still prowls a bit.

But I'm in the process of erasing her.

It's a little long.

I must tell you something...

You're not gonna like it:

Cecile invited me to her birthday party.

I told her I'd come over.

Why wouldn't I like it?

It was at the beginning, right?

You wouldn't do it again.

I can't prevent you from living.

You'll be free to go on a pub crawl with your friends.

Sure, what else?

[she slowly laughs]

Ok look, here's an agreement:

you trust me when I go out on my own

and I trust you to keep to one single drink.

Deal.

[clink]

But... What if this party is too crowded for you?

I said I'd drop by, not stay.

You're annoying. [giggles]

I let you finish, I'm going to shower.

Ok.

[kiss]

The corridor's bathroom is safer!

I don't like tubs. I'll be careful!

Like 2 hours and a half.

[Astrid] Ok.

The window is locked; I leave the door opened for the air.

Have you seen my phone?

[Astrid] Not here.

I should charge it up.

Last time I saw it, it was in the car.

So downstairs?

Don't be lazy if you want your alarm clock.

Can't we use your phone?

You may try, but that's risky.

Ok, then I go.

Sorry!

You should check the letterbox to see if the spare keys are there.

Why're you standing here? This is a private property!

Loup.

What?

Loup... My name is Loup.

[strange pipes music begins]

Would you mind leaving please?

They not there?

Who are not there?

The ones who...

who-smell-like-ivy?

No one else lives here.

They do...

I think they're back.

Beware of The-ones- who-smell-like-ivy.

Go away, or I call the cops.

Right.

I couldn't live in an old house like that:

it always feels like someone's watching...

[silence]

Have you found the keys?

I didn't reach the letterbox:

we had a surprise guest in the garden.

Who?

A youngster who was totally freaked-out...

He was asking whether we "smelt ivy".

What?

I didn't get it.

[charging phone]

Maybe he was autistic.

Don't worry, he's gone.

What time did you set the alarm for?

6AM.

It's early.

So that we arrive not too late.

Astrid?

What?

Do you think we should get married?

What's happening to you?

I don't know.

We could.

Do you need this?

I don't need but...

I think I just want.

An official proposal?

Let's say a pre-proposal.

For the official, I'll do something more formal.

Ok...

Can't be true! [utility knife grating] People again!

Fuck, here we go again!

In the house?

Yeah in the house. We'll never be left alone!

Is it why you didn't honour us with your presence at mealtime?

Duh...

He dawdled around the village.

D'you have a problem?

Just don't complain if you didn't have dinner!

You're right, fuck yeah I was in the bar.

No kidding! Again?

It's easier back there, look at this!

And you, how much have YOU brought back today?

[Ma] Go easy on money, Charlot.

It's not supposed to be our priority anymore.

I know, but it does help:

at least we can buy what we can't gather.

Only as a last resort.

[wringing]

Jeanne did a lot better:

she found a vegetable garden.

Where?

Only 30 minutes away. In the sector that YOU were meant to explore when we arrived.

And what had you said? Oh wait! I quote:

"There's nothing, let's go somewhere else!"

Just had to search 5 minutes more.

- Toward the hills? - Yeah, the hill.

There's nothing over there! What a bitchy liar!

Ma...

Did I invent the chards and the leeks?

Stop it, both of you.

[glass brutally put down]

[scratching]

At the bar I saw them... Early evening.

Newcomers, I noticed them straight away!

Couldn't hear the guy's name, but the girl is "Astrid".

Wealthy people's names...

Then their car went towards the vines, so I had an intuition.

I came back to the house: bingo! They were there!

They've just fallen asleep in the last bedroom.

Maybe they won't stay.

So what? Here was meant to be our hideout,

a remote shelter, with only electricity and a river nearby!

It's still the case.

I don't often agree with him, but yeah it sucks.

We've been chilled for 6 months,

and now they're the second visitors in 3 weeks!

The landlord croaked, and you said it was too isolated to be quickly purchas.

Then why this traffic?

Jeanne, don't start like this.

You said bullshit, admit it Ma! You talked rubbish.

[wet clothes thrown] [Jeanne's utility knife]

People are here?!

Can you hear them?

Do they hell around in our place?!

No!

It's no big deal...

[whispering:] They don't know we are here.

No one knows this area.

People bring people... You'll see.

I'm not questioning your settlement, Ma...

I just say we must get rid of that before it's too late.

Well, that's surprising!

That being said...

It's true we get bored, as of late.

[airer's clinkings]

[utility knife]

I'm sure we could find something better than here.

Maybe a cave, or quarry, grotto...

That was my plan!

But our car's in a ravine, d'you remember! huh?

Anyway we should've pushed on further north in the woods.

Right, so it would've been a fucking chore to get some food.

Of course, if we rely on a village...

Ma is right, we need proximity:

we're currently in an adjustment period!

Seriously? It's not what you said 2 minutes ago!

You know perfectly well what I meant!

[Ma tut-tutting]

[clothes]

[Jeanne] Anyway...

Have you seen the idiot?

Yeah.

Still sheltered in the bar.

- He won't talk. - How can you tell?

Shut up! We tell you he won't.

Why did we off the bitch and not him?

He doesn't deserve: he's already nonexistent for the world.

You're so schmaltzy, poor Ma!

He's the one who'll cause us trouble if we don't dispatch him very soon.

You'll see how "existent" he can be!

Stop it.

They're all dangers for us, retarded or not!

[slapping, Ma grunts]

[Charlot laughs]

You both disgust me.

[basin brutally put down]

As long as we can, we won't touch him. Is that clear?

Sorry, Ma.

[Ma breathes]

If you went to the bar...

you surely stole some!

[pocket sound]

[buzzing electric ambiance]

[box of matches]

[striking match]

[she sighs]

We decided to stick together.

And to escape this shitty society, yeah... But some rules are still essential!

You're right.

[Jeanne grumbles]

We must stay discreet.

And not pursue anyone.

Ok for the village. But what about the two strangers?

Well, them...

It's different.

[sly bass synth notes]

[utility knife]

[Charlot] If it stays inside the house,

there's nothing wrong with having fun, right?

We did not... plan anything better for tonight.

What's got into the snotty bitch?

We don't care.

[Charlot] Are you sure it wasn't you?

Your face makes this to everyone!

I was upstairs with you, moron.

She screamed downstairs alone, even before you struck the other one.

I think she sees things that don't exist.

It happens.

Maybe we've met madder than us!

Is that why you made a mess by yourself when we were upstairs?

Mmh?

Hallucinations?

Drug flashback?

Schizo?

I really like to be answered.

I've had problems with alcohol...

[Jeanne laughs]

Of course you have.

What are you going to do?

I am asking the questions.

Now the crutch makes sense.

You do know it's wrong to drive drunk.

Boozing helped you to shun what?

This is my business.

[utility knife] Oh!...

Then let me guess! Mmh...

He fucked somebody else I bet

and as you struggle with emotional dependency,

immaturity and jealousy...

it ruined your little life?

Something like that?

[laughing]

It's probably what happened.

And you really think this is a valid reason?

There are millions like you on Earth.

[utility knife softly]

That's why the world repulses me: there is no surprise.

You're all just moping around...

Are you all competing for who-has-the-shittiest-life?

I try to cope!

Oh, you try to cope?

You can stop now, honey.

Because tonight...

You are dying. [laughing]

See it as a chance?

Don't do anything to Tristan.

Now, we must leave fast.

Hey...

We'll find her.

And get out of here all three of us.

No- no!

They there, they there...

The-ones-who-smell-like-ivy?

Had you seen them before?

Yes, here.

You were here...

with the girl who had rent the house, right?

They took her!

She ran in the woods, but they caught her again.

And you?

I just hid.

So they not find me.

[childish music going on]

You're hiding from... the-ones-who-smell-like-ivy

or from everyone?

Are you in general scared of people?

So am I.

I'm scared of people too.

No, no!

[panting]

They're not here:

I heard them downstairs.

We out, back door exit!

Yes... Let's find Astrid,

then we follow you to the way out,

and after I promise we'll stay far from places with too many people.

You trust me?

[Ma giggles]

They were two young mad dogs who just wanted to play...

And they lost.

They needed to let off steam. It's not their fault.

You're completely insane.

Shut the fuck up.

What do you know about me?

Nothing...

I know nothing.

About us?

He says you are The-ones- who-smell-like-ivy.

Mmh.

Ivy... doesn't leave any scent on clothes.

Right? [she laughs]

To him, it does.

[shutter's handle]

Hello sir.

Is it 9 Close Ln?

Yes.

We've got a distress call from here.

We couldn't hear it well... and couldn't phone back.

Yes... I did call you.

People were trying to enter.

But they're gone.

People?

A gang of young morons.

They were trying to burgle.

It's my uncle's house.

He died 6 months ago; they must've thought there would be nobody.

Too bad for them... I'm here tonight.

Seems like you had a fight?

Yes: they broke the door.

I called you then... But the signal wasn't great.

May we come in for a minute?

Look...

My wife's just fallen asleep...

And the night's been hard enough...

You see?

Is it your car down there? In the garden.

Yes?

Do you know that all your tyres are flat?

[low frequencies]

[Tristan] They surely took revenge on the car when they left...

I'll take care of this.

You know who they are?

No.

You really should report it.

I will do it.

We stay nearby...

In case they try to come back.

We are not far.

Got it?

Ok.

Thank you.

I take the other exit with him.

Gonna tie him up in the tool shed.

Then I'll vanish.

But if you try to flee,

if you break the window or knock down the door...

I'll hear you.
