What do I think of it?
What I think...
I think that most of my
patients suffer from something
much more common than madness.
What? Depression?
Loneliness.
Either you feel it inside
you, or live it everyday.
The biggest problem is that
you all want the same things.
You all want to feel unique,
to have something that makes you special.
And above all, you want to be free
to act, to choose.
However,
just the idea of making something
really different scares you.
You fear
judgment, reprisals, gaze of the other.
And if its so tough to feel
free under this conditions,
Its because nobody
is really free in society.
True freedom,
you have to be alone to find it.
Liam! What the f*ck are you doing?
sh*t!
Hello.
Did you see the time?
Sorry...
Yeah? Well next
time you will eat here.
Hurry, finish the ladys order,
I have accounting to finish.
Come on!
Thatll be 19.90 please.
It changes you...
Sorry?
The suit.
Last time, you looked
a little more untidy.
Wedding day.
Yours?
No, my sisters.
Good!
No, well, I didnt mean
to, I mean good for her.
Well yes, but you havent
seen my future brother in law...
Hello, hum honey, what are you doing?
Im coming Hurry, we are waiting.
Keep the change.
Have a nice day.
Goodbye.
...when the first layer is
dry, you can apply the nail polish...
If theres too much, you can
take off a little with a wooden stick...
Anything else?
What? Four sausages arent enough?
Maybe I can put this one too,
or maybe I can put you something else...
Mister Prvet! What are you doing here?
Im stocking up,
were playing petanque with
some pals. Oh! Wanna come?
Thanks for asking, but Ive
got work to do. Cant promise.
Leave it!
Thats on me.
Thats cool pal!
But your chick isnt.
Just before she was ready to jump on me.
Do you have a problem with my face, lady?
Tell me about it, shes
been acting like that for days.
Oh! Well now I know why I
smelled fish when I came here.
Youre stupid! Come on, I accompany you,
youll say hi to the others!
Right. Bye bye shrew!
What?
When you feel people staring at you,
wondering what they say about you
I cant tell you why,
but they wonder too
To live wonderful love
and feel wonderful Joyce
we need to be alone
Hey!
Say what you are looking for
Ask yourself if you want more
Once and for all
We need
... to be alone
The problem is, he found
a much heavier boxer than him
We just saw that his punches are deadly.
So, these are problems
that need to be solved.
Whats up? Enjoying
the evening? [Fiona:] Yes, sure.
Sorry we didnt come
before, but theres so much people.
Dont worry, enjoy! By the way
that was a beautiful ceremony.
Really? Im glad
youre saying that because...
Thankfully I
hope, considering the price,
and you didnt see
everything, my company got
me the Blinders, theyll
come to play tonight.
And then she
hits me with a sausage.
Oh you think thats funny huh?
Liam?
Liam?
Liam! What are you doing?
Liam!
Has it happened to you before?
Yeah.
But that was a long time ago.
I think that the
last time, I was still a scout.
They found me lost near a pond.
Also, that happened when I was
going camping with my parent.
Whats wrong?
Nothing, I...
I really dont know what to do.
Thats a lot for me.
Listen, maybe I should stop talking,
Im tired.
You think you can go back to sleep?
I love you, forget about
it, its just a difficult time.
sh*t.
f*ck!
What the hell are you doing?
At first, I thought it
was related to his dismissal.
But...
now Im thinking maybe I am the reason.
Maybe both, I dont know.
You should ask him, not me.
Last week, he was still
talking to me, but now...
You would have seen him there, his eyes,
it was like
like all of this was my fault.
Is that what you think, Liam?
I didnt really know what to say right now.
Do you have any idea what caused this?
No, I dont.
Take your time,
thats why were here.
Ill tell you why we are here:
were here because
instead of being patient,
and waiting for things to get better,
Fiona takes me to the
repair, and then I guess that
everything will be better
in the best of worlds.
Youve become as
down-to-earth as your mother.
Liam, I just try to...
Please Fiona, let him continue.
Well, yes Fiona,
let the gentleman occupy his
afternoon watching me insult you.
Hell always end up being
the good guy, anyway.
With smart sentences, just to be
sure we didnt pay him for nothing.
And then he will take our money,
telling himself how
useful he is for society.
Is that what youre looking for?
Fiona talked about dismissal, is
that what youre worried about?
You think youre no
longer useful, or admired?
Let it be clear,
there is nothing wrong
with a transition period,
but there are many ways
to regain self-confidence.
Looking for a job, right?
Why not.
To feel more fulfilled?
To end up like you?
A smug guy in a suit and tie,
cufflinks, the nice house and nice car?
You could just see it as
a way to build something.
And its not just work,
One can thrive in their personal life
with loved ones,
family,
children.
Maybe I dont want any
of this and be left alone.
Did you mean what you said?
What?
You really dont want kids?
I didnt think youd
remember anything else.
Dont you think theres
enough of us on this planet?
What more is our kid gonna bring?
What do you mean?
You know what I mean, dont
pretend. Im just an investment to you.
You refuse to talk to me about separation
because now weve been
together for eight years,
the ticking of your biological
clock begins to be felt,
it would be far too risky
for you to look elsewhere,
am I wrong?
Is that really what you think of me?
Seriously?
Im here when you have your fits,
I defend you when someone
spits behind your back!
Yeah, well, my fits like
you say, I had always
been sleepwalking when
I was away from home,
and if it happens now,
Im sure its for a reason.
Yeah? So you dont feel
at home with me? Right?
- Thats not what I sa-
- Stop taking me for a c**t!
That is exactly what you said.
And you know what?
Now, were two.
Fiona...
You really dont want kids?
I didnt think youd
remember anything else.
Dont you think theres
enough of us on this
planet? What more is our kid gonna bring?
Murphy...
Eddy, let me sleep, Im tired.
Oh, come on Murphy,
You know you cant sleep without me,
let me come with you!
No, I have to be responsible, and being
responsible starts with not needing others.
Thats the stupidest thing Ive ever heard,
Who told you this?
Mommy.
Of course, and I suppose she
promised you something in return right?
And, of course, you obey.
Wanna know what I think?
No, let me sleep.
I think your mommy told
you this because shes jealous,
She probably doesnt have a
blankie as comfortable as me.
Leave her in her bitterness,
and come and get me.
I told you to leave me alone.
See? Youre mad. Thats
because you know Im right, huh?
No wait! Murphy! Murphy! Murphy wait!
Wait, wait! Murphy! Murphy! Murphy! Murphy,
Take me with you, or Ill lose all my
hair, and I will be just skin and bones.
Murphy, if you keep
being stubborn like that, I...
All right,
just ignore me.
Follow mommys orders.
Keep hiding like that.
But believe me,
a day will come,
and that day,
much sooner than you think
that day you will need me
and you can say goodbye
to the exceptional support
of your friend Eddy, the teddy bear!
Excuse me, we have other
applications that just fell.
Ah! I have to worry then.
No, no, not at all.
So, the position is
permanent with a salary of
4700 euros per month, a good health
insurance, and non taxable overtime.
Everything OK?
Well yes, but the
announcement lacked details...
Yes, quite deliberate.
Ah.
I see on your resume that you
were an accountant for 6 years.
Yes, thats right.
But in the last year, since
the company was making
less and less profits,
I held other positions,
since I had more free time.
Ah, well, lets talk about free
time: do you have a wife? Children?
No.
A dependent parent?
No, neither, I live alone.
Very good.
For us, not for you.
Although, for some companies, wife and kids
are a good way to hold
employees by the ba...
anyway,
You have a hobby? Something
that keep your weekends busy?
No.
And during public holidays?
No, not either.
Any problems with your erection?
What?
When you have sex, does your thing...
Yes yes, no I understood, but I
dont see the connection to the job...
We try to keep abreast
of the latest studies.
And last month, Corpomania published
an article demonstrating that people with
repeated erectile dysfunctions are more
likely to be less
productive in the workplace.
No, no
I mean, it must have happened
to me once or twice, but...
No, I really dont have
any problems on that side.
On that side?
You have a problem with another side?
No,
no, it was an expression.
And your sex partners?
What about them?
Are they.. by the way,
Male or female?
Female.
Are they happy with you?
Ive never had complaints.
I understand,
it can be hard for all
of us to know, right?
Do you dance?
What do you mean?
Were missing live wire
in the company, and its
very good that you have
some free time for us,
and to know that you will
be able to boost the morale of
the troops, and put some
atmosphere in our company evenings,
I cant hide the fact, that
will be a load off my mind.
Well, yes, I can dance.
Well, more or less huh?
Very good!
Can you give me a demonstration?
Well, but here, now, without music...
Ill just be a couple of hours.
Dont you think youre
overreacting here, Mom?
Well, listen, if youre
really worried, just come,
because I cant do otherwise.
Well, there you are,
so you dont tell me how
to educate my son and
everything will go well.
Thats right, like you never left us alone.
Come on. Anyway I gotta go.
Right, see you. Kisses.
Well, sweetheart, I gotta go.
Are you sure youre gonna be okay?
Do you remember everything I said?
If youre hungry theres
toast on the table,
you dont change the
channel, dont let anyone in,
and if you have a problem, any problem,
just call me.
And drink your milk
while its still a little warm.
You know, sweetheart, Eddys
not sleeping with you anymore
you dont have to take
him everywhere you go.
Id be home in three hours.
What about me?
Dont I get a kiss?
Here it is.
Ill be quick, okay? I love you!
Ill leave my number by the phone.
What are you doing, now?
Oh, I see.
I thought that when your mom left,
you would apologize and hug me.
Would you look at me when I talk to you?
You really dont seem busy, do you?
You didnt even see the beginning.
I know very well why youre doing this,
because you were told not to, right?
Do you know the expression:
while the cat's away
the mice will play!
While the cats away the mice will play
Very good!
Very good!
Feel free to do a little more, huh?
Its company Christmas party,
no one dances, and you have to coach
everyone around the floor with you.
Yes?
Wait, hold on.
Keep going, keep going, It wont take long.
Yes.
No, D13.
D14 serves as a transition from D13 to D15.
Yes, exactly. It's empty.
What?
Wait a minute.
D16
The archives department
wont be able to figure it out.
Keep going!
D17,
Depends on what youre looking for, huh?
Ask Gregory.
Right.
Bye, kisses.
All right, all right, you can stop.
Was it good?
Not really, no.
Well see later if your
sense of humor is better.
Lets move on, do you feel like a leader?
Hum, yes, I guess.
And like an employee?
Yes, as well.
So you can give orders and receive orders.
Ah! Yeah, OK, I understand now.
Sorry?
No thats because I didnt see
the link between your questions.
How often does that happen to you?
What?
To not understand what you are being asked?
No, no, its just on the moment, I...
Good, good, good.
Well have a series of
little tests if thats okay.
Yes.
Sorry?
Yes, thats okay.
Ah.
Geraldine,
Please bring me Valerie.
Come in!
Ah, Valerie.
I present our future potential
wandering resource manager.
- Hello!
- Hello.
Dont move.
Very well.
Valerie, please sit in
the gentlemans seat.
OK
Good.
The company has had several
ideas stolen in recent months,
and Valerie is the only one who knows
who the mole is among the employees.
You have five minutes to squeeze
her out information about his identity
before the competition receives
the list of our annual projects.
Right, but the competition? [Stopwatch
start click] - And top, youre up.
Valerie,
We know from reliable sources,
that you know the name of the
person who is filling in NemesisCorp.
Stop.
NemesisCorp?
Yes... I improvise,
Since you didnt give me
the competitors name, I...
Good idea.
Here we go again.
Start!
I dont know what you mean,
nobody talks to me at the office.
Yet Valerie,
we were clearly told that you had
exchanged with him several times
and that he had confided in you.
Three minutes.
Wait, what?
Yes, take it to the
next level. Threaten her.
Valerie,
if you dont cooperate, Well
have to end your contract.
What? You cant do this!
We dont have to do this,
- You just have one thing to say...
- How am I gonna make it?
I have a paraplegic son,
do you know how much
I pay for his medical care?
You cant do this to me,
its unfair, if you dare
take what little I have left,
I swear to god Ill find you,
I will burn your house, and
thatll be just the beginning!
She gets hysterical, Slap her in the face!
What?
You wont be able to
hide, Terry. The nights
your dad took you to the basement, its
gonna be Disneyland next
to what Im gonna do to you,
where you are, Ill be there to make
you suffer, until you beg me to spare you
by ending your shitty life, where you
havent even been able to find a p*ssy,
or even a f*cking job!
f*ck you!
Yes I know who the
snitch is -but you can still
try sucking your
mothers n*pples - Again!
Who get you hit in the
head when you were little
and throw up everything
youve swallowed up on me
- and I wont say sh*t!
- Again!
And I will gladly return the favor by
making you eat the diapers of my bed...
- Again!
- So you can...
really know
what your shitty life
tastes like!
Its
Its Fabrice, on the archives.
And top
Well, bravo, really.
Nice spontaneity.
Thats OK, Valerie, you can go.
Is it okay? Havent I done too much?
You dont, you were perfect, as usual.
Are you sure? 'Cause for a
while I kind of drooled and...
But no, no
Look at him, hes totally freaked out.
Well, tell her, you!
I almost bought it... Ah! You see?
Yeah? Well see you for brunch then.
Good luck.
You may seat down.
Youre all right?
Yes, no, I cant really say.
Good.
Lets move on.
As youve seen from all these questions,
our selection criteria
are mainly based on the
almost unlimited
availability of our employees.
Yes, I think I get it.
In that case, are you ready to commit
yourself wholeheartedly
to this undertaking?
Yes, well, I guess.
Is that a yes?
Yes.
All right.
So suppose I look for a car,
Im the buyer, this office is a
car dealership, youre the car.
If I want a nice car, I
have to make sure that
youve done a roadside inspection, okay?
Yes.
So I see on your health record
your last health check-up was
- 4 years ago.
- I can do it again.
It wont be necessary.
I do health checks myself.
What?
Dont get me wrong,
theres nothing weird about it,
I was a doctor before
I started this company.
That is good,
that too,
The vaccines to renew next year,
remember, that would be a shame.
Sure.
Ah.
I don't see a diagnosis of prostate cancer.
Dont contract. Youll get haemorrhoids.
- Sorry.
- Thats all right.
Okay, you can put your pants back on.
Listen, I wont hide anything from you,
you have an abnormal size, it seems
to be the first stage of cancer and,
given its size,
it is incurable.
I am truly sorry.
What?
If it makes you feel any better,
even if its already big enough,
I dont think its at a
very advanced stage,
we could requalify your contract
in a fixed term of, say, 5 years.
Maybe even 6?
Im dying?
I am
sorry.
But on the other hand we have an
obligation employment of disabled workers
this would allow me to avoid having
to pay our contributions for the Gifip,
and then we could provide
you with raised desks,
so you dont have to sit.
You tell me I only
have A few years to live,
and all you have to tell me
is that you have raised desks?
Well, to tell you the truth,
No.
I mean we do have raised desks, but
you dont have a tumor.
- What?
- You have nothing.
Well, I wouldnt know
because I am not a doctor either
That was a joke.
To test your sense of humor,
As I said earlier, theres a lack of live
wire in the company, so I wanted to know...
Hey, what is that?
A trash.
No, above the trash.
Ah, thats...
No, nothing.
Did you film us when...?
Hey! I asked you a question!
Did you film us when...?
- Theo, were done here.
- Wait a minute, no were not,
There is no job interview.
What?
Im sorry, its always a
complicated moment for me,
especially with candidate as yourself.
What the f*ck are you talking about?
We work for the S.R.I,
we are not looking for employees.
- S... S.R?
- Sociological Research Industry.
Currently, we reclaim the
works of Stanley Milgram,
you heard of him, experiments on
the degree of individual obedience.
You understand me?
To make it clearer:
Instead of using the authority to
gauge the docility of the test subject,
the focus was on its greed.
You understand better now?
Youre not a recruiter?
No.
But if it makes you feel any better,
the further our subjects
go in the experiment,
the greater the compensation.
The more greedy people are,
the more you pay them, seriously?
I recognize that this may seem paradoxical,
but I can only advise you to
focus on what we have to offer.
How much?
Tax free, of course.
I recognize that this may
seem like a small compensation
in light of what youve
been through, but...
Been through?
You just put a finger on me.
So first, I put you 2.
And then usually our candidates
dont go that far in the interview,
we respect everyones free will
- and, nobody forced you to...
- 10 000.
- Sorry?
- 10 000 or Ill sue you.
If you had really seen my resume you
would have seen that I went to law school.
I assure you, you wont be able
to hold anything back against us.
Breach of trust, identity theft,
sexual abuse, shall I go on?
Technically,
- you were consenting.
- 10000!
Thanks.
Here.
Oh, you dont have to count.
Can you sign this for me?
It stipulates that you undertake
to give us your image right,
not to disclose our
actions, and not to sue us.
- Good day.
- Right.
Mrs. Bouvier.
- Yann Servec, nice to meet you.
- Hello.
You could wait in my office,
I have a colleague to see.
- Second door on the left.
- Thank you.
Well, we made a deal.
I negotiated 7,000.
Well, thats gonna be
a big hit in the budget.
No, but its true he
thought where the f*ck
did he go? You should
have sent him to hell.
What? and miss a case like that?
If it were up to me, I would
have posted it directly on YouTube.
Yeah, well, luckily Its not,
were not at SocioMag,
I remind you that we
have an ethics to respect.
Right, go tell that to
everyone youve put a finger on.
Sorry, two fingers on, thats right.
I was laughing so much
when you told him that.
So where are we with Madame Bouvier?
Well, she just got here.
She has not yet passed the first stage.
Well, it wasnt long.
- Less hits in the budget, right Valerie?
- Screw you.
Funny because I was referring to what you
said earlier, but less
hits for you as well.
Good double-meaning joke.
- Well, can somebody go get her for me?
- Yeah, I go.
What else is new?
Well, speaking of the devil, SocioMag has
already reached its
threshold of test subjects,
and theyve already
posted everything online.
Besides stealing our
ideas, They do everything
to make it look like they came from them.
- What else?
- Well theres our team in Sarthe
who sent us last weeks rushes.
With a lot of weirdos.
I saw one earlier that went
all the way. Youre gonna laugh:
Wait, wait:
put this one on.
Do you have any dancing skills?
Well, skills, I dont
know, but I can dance.
Would you be able to delegate?
- To delegate?
- Thats the guy you just saw, right?
Go to the SocioMag website.
Scroll down.
There!
Do you have children
or a dependent parent?
I have two children.
Are you engaged in an
extra-professional activity?
Yes, I do tarot.
- Do you have erection problems?
- No.
Are your partners satisfied
of your sexual performances?
Yes.
Do you have any dancing skills?
Son of a b*tch.
Wow! Was it you?
Where are you going?
Murphy?
Well, you sure have some nerve!
Im hungry.
Are you sure?
You look a lot bigger than my belly.
Leave me alone!
What makes you think she didnt
count them before she left, huh?
Youre gonna get hurt,
and its not with my stumps that
Im gonna be able to call 911 if you fall.
- Shut the f*ck up!
- Oh! Well, better and better huh?
Better and better, huh.
That was a close one.
Gimme that.
Grandmas sweet tooth - Oh, no no no!
I know one who is
going to have a hard time.
Eddy, please help me!
You see that! Looks like someone
finally found his little tongue.
Please, Mom will k*ll me!
But you had to think about it before,
what do you want me to do about it?
Im not a magician,
- Im just a teddy bear.!
- Please!
Your mother has super glue
in a cabinet near the entrance.
Lets just try to put it back together.
Put it back together? Well,
yeah, what else do you have?
Its either that or we
bury it in the backyard,
but eventually shell realize its missing.
Come on! Hurry! Come on, come on, come on.
You have to tell him everything.
Amazing! With any luck, She
wont even notice the cracks.
- No thanks to you.
- Hey, who found the glue?
What else did you want me to
do? Squeeze the tube with my teeth?
Something wrong?
- Its stuck.
- Oh, thats too bad, huh?
Thats not funny!
Dont pull like this Its gonna break!
Work your brain a little bit:
What did your mother use when
you glued your fingers together?
Zolvent.
Well we way solvent,
but no, she didnt have it.
So?
Hey oh!
Its bigger than your fingers, Dont
worry about putting more on, huh?
But shes gonna notice I took some.
Thats right.
Oh, I know!
Just add some water to
the bottle once youre done!
Oh be careful! Whats
wrong with your head? Oh!
Bravo!
Now, were gonna have to
cover up the smell, because
this smells like grandpas
basement here, right?
- But you told me to add more.
- Well, Im saying that for you, huh.
What the hell? Are you
doing this on purpose?
- What do I do now?
- What do you want me to say?
Were never going to have
enough glue to put it back together.
Please!
- Surely there is a solution...
- But the solution I gave you earlier,
All you had to do was
admit your mistake while
you still could, now all
you have is eyes to cry.
And please spare me the
proper meaning of that sentence,
because I dont think that I
could survive another of your sobs,
Youve always wanted to make it your
own way, now take it. No more playing.
I thought you knew what
you were doing, I should
have known you didnt
have the shoulders for it,
All your life, you just let yourself go
where someone else wanted to take you,
Youre more fragile, weaker
than all these plates put together.
Since you were born, your needs
have always come before mine!
You are a burden to me, that I
drag myself hoping that one day,
someone will come and break
my chains and get rid of you!
And your ugliness, it was already
horrifying to me when you were born,
so imagine how it makes me feel today.
Every day that passes, I see the demon
growing inside you and your father knew it,
which is why he didnt even wait for
you to come into the world to abandon us.
What the...
What the hell is wrong with you?
You thought I was gonna congratulate you?
All right, all right, you can go, a
little exercise, it wont hurt you.
Is that it?
Harder!
Oh, I like it!
Is that all you got?
Finally I think Ive had enough.
Hands up!
[Maniacal laugh of the teddy
[The
scream of rage continues] [Cartoonish
[Scream
of rage and maniacal laughter continue
Its okay?
Are you done?
Oh, oh... [Scream of fear] [Sound of
wooden shelf and dishes falling on the
[Sound of fire growing
and crackling loudly] Eddy!
Eddy,
Murphy,
Fire!
Murphy,
Murphy,
Eddy, Im sorry, I dont know
why I did this, I didnt want to.
Doesnt matter, everythings fine.
Murphy,
Dont talk, dont worry,
Moms gonna stitch you up.
Its too late, Murphy.
Dont worry,
I knew it would happen someday.
Youre gonna have to deal with this
on your own now.
Youre gonna make it.
Trust me.
Your mom was right, you know,
You will always need others but
you will not always be able to
count on them.
I
I know,
I dont have much to
to
Give you.
Eddy,
Eddy!
Eddy!
Eddy.
Hello, sweetheart! Sorry I...
Murphy?
Murphy!
What the hell happened here?
I broke the sweet jar.
I dont know exactly when it started.
I think that basically, it was
just to see if I could really
impersonate someone else.
I mean, I did it for the money, too.
Im trying to convince myself
it wasnt the only reason.
I dont know.
Maybe in the end, it was just
to exist in the eyes of others.
That is why I had to be someone else.
So pathetic.
She was right,
loneliness is a prison.
Sorry?
Lao She
I read about it in one of his books.
Thats pretty amazing coming from him.
Why?
In the Taoism, loneliness
is rather seen as a teaching.
What... what does that
have to do with the Taoists?
Laozi, its founder.
No, Lao She, the writer.
Are you listening to me
or am I talking to thin air?
Excuse me, my bad, so:
Loneliness is a prison,
what does that mean to you?
I dont know.
I dont even know if thats true.
What I do know is
that those who seek solitude,
are never those who
live it on a daily basis.
I guess you always
want what you dont have.
If life is about spending
your time being dissatisfied,
there is reason to
wonder if its worth it.
But dont worry, Im
not going to f*ck myself.
Although Im at a point where I
have so little idea what Im doing here
that Ive even started to
Google the meaning of life.
Theres nothing wrong with that, you know.
Some hypochondriacs use it to look
for the disease that could k*ll them.
You at least, are looking
for something to move on.
And you found answers?
I came across an article
that said we live to love.
I figured why not? After all, its
not more stupid than anything else.
But suppose a depressive comes across this,
and sees love
as the one theyve
been selling us for years,
you know, love with a big L, the one that
is said to be true only if it is mutual.
So whats this guy gonna think?
Who has no wife, no friends,
and whose only company are
coworkers who make fun of
him when his back is turned?
Is that the state you think youre in?
Put away from others?
No, but I didnt say I was talking
about myself, it was just an example.
I know its a concept to
take in the broad sense,
like loving sunsets or, like,
going to the movies, that kind of crap.
Yes, but this person
you describe as a loner,
dont you think that he could
be a projection of yourself?
I dont think so, no.
It was just an example.
It takes a job already, to have colleagues.
And I have friends.
Well, I mean, people to k*ll time with.
You think defining them
that way is acting with love?
No, but
I didnt say I was going to
apply it anyway. I just read it.
Exist to love, You cant
really say that sounds like me.
Well, why not?
It could become a philosophy of life.
Isnt that kind of naive philosophy?
Maybe a little utopian, yes.
But it may not hurt you
to try to look at it that way.
You mean besides being disappointed?
Here, you who like quotations, I
invite you to turn to Oscar Wilde:
sh**t for the moon. Even if you
miss it you will land among the stars.
If your guy is really propelled
into the sky and misses
his trajectory, hes more
likely to end up in space.
Hes a poet, not an astronaut.
What if you try to focus on the substance
rather than the form?
Dont you think youll start
to see things differently?
I will try.
Thanks anyway, Ill give it back next time.
Take your time, theres no hurry.
And for what Ive done,
what do you recommend?
Excuse me.
What is it?
Theres a problem with your
appointments, and your wife called
to find out what date you chose for Vienna.
And it couldnt wait?
What? 'Cause Im not
patient enough with you, right?
Do you really think this is
the time to seek the muddle?
Martin finished early and he
moved your appointment up,
so if you still want to have lunch
with him, you better cut it short.
If its all right with you, Mr
Lavoine, Well stop here for today.
Theres still blood on the chair. Did
he give you the name of the restaurant?
The IMA, and Im not your maid, by the way.
Oh, man, thats 10 miles.
Hell wait, wont hurt him. Teach
him to warn people at the last minute.
He was less proud when he was your patient.
It was a little thing,
he didnt really need it,
And then he recommended you,
I remind you, so give him a break.
If we cant even say what we think...
Anyway, youre right, Im
picking on the wrong person.
So whats the problem?
I dont know, when
were planning on leaving
someone, we dont plan
a trip with her, do we?
I was talking about appointments.
And besides, he thinks
Im stupid, whatever.
The problem is, you have four patients
scheduled at the same
time after your break.
What? I told you I
didnt want anything this
afternoon, I have my lecture to prepare.
First you calm down, because I had nothing
to do with it, there was a bug on MedLive,
The schedules were not blocked and it
confirmed the consultations automatically.
Well, call them to cancel!
Yeah, sure, and then I get insulted.
If youd let me make all
your appointments, it
wouldnt have happened.
Youre probably the only psychoanalyst
in town with a secretary, so use it!
If you knew how to use the
site, we wouldnt have this.
And if you knew how to use your ba*ls,
you would have already left your wife!
Touch.
- What? Is that all you have to say?
- What do you want me to say?
It wasnt the time before,
and its not now that I have
10 minutes to cross town
that were gonna talk about this.
Besides, you got patients to call.
Of course, when it comes to getting back
together with the other jerk, youre ready.
We are preparing our
speeches, I already told you.
And then consider yourself happy, you wont
have to work this afternoon.
Too kind, dont you
want a blow job for that?
Thats all Im good for, right?
You said it, not me.
- f*ck you!
- Love you too!
Hello?
Hello?
[Laura: Your b*tch
secretary hung up fast. I
Arthur!
Good thing I waited, huh?
You ever answer your phone?
Sorry, I left it at the office.
Dont worry, its okay.
So I called your house, I got your wife,
she told me what happened yesterday,
- Youll be okay?
- I will, dont worry.
I am a little worried.
Its not every day,
especially in your line of work,
that you have to deal
with the death of a patient.
- I dont really want to talk about it.
- Still,
Here we go, gentlemen.
Sorry.
- Thank you.
- Yeah, in the meantime, I ordered for you.
Todays menu.
Well I hope you will enjoy your meal.
Well, since thats how it is,
I brought you my
presentation for the afternoon.
Ah, well, youre
definitely wasting no time.
- Would I be the first to start?
- Why? Is that a problem for you?
No it isnt,
well, I thought that
since this was a seminar
between psychoanalysts and sociologists,
we could work in pairs.
Because with psycho in the
morning and socio in the afternoon,
youre not afraid that well only
have our peers in the audience?
You have a point.
Thats why we have to find
commonalities in our presentations,
to have a continuity in
the course of the day.
In fact, weve given you a few
suggestions to put in the contents.
How come?
Dont worry, its nothing,
Youll just have to
talk about it briefly, so
they can talk it over
with me in the afternoon.
Okay.
So, if I understand correctly, I
have no one to introduce my subjects.
- Someone had to sacrifice himself.
- Yes, and it had to be me.
Listen, when you track me down on an event,
you do what you want.
What?
You called this: the
sociology of tomorrow.
So what? Is this too mundane for you?
In terms of originality, were not great.
Yeah, well, at least we stick to
the point, thats the main one.
And the most important
thing is the content, right?
We wont really be
there to sell our books.
Speak for yourself, you
may have editors at the IRS,
but my book, its been
sitting in a drawer for six years.
Well, listen, if it bothers
you that much, I remind
you that we always have
a place for you with us.
Thats nice, thank you. But Id rather
help my patients than humiliate them.
What is ethics reform?
A theme wed like to
develop with your help,
and confront people with their true nature,
Its not exactly what I call humiliation.
Call it what you want.
For me, its hidden
cameras with more budget.
Consented use of psychotropics to
validate the veracity of experiences?
What the f*ck? Now you
gonna drug your test subjects?
We got a partnership
with the Znia laboratories
to talk about their latest innovations.
In fact, weve given you a few
suggestions for introducing it.
Sure, youll get your share.
What.
Thats why you recommended
me, isnt it? To be a wh*re with you.
Oh stop it,
All seminars do product placement,
theres absolutely nothing wrong with that.
In medicine, Im sure you do, but
now youre talking about advertising a
drug to professionals
who cant prescribe it.
- Whats their interest in this?
- I dont know
And then, anyway, there will still be a
lot of prescribers in the audience, right?
Look, you do have a psychiatric degree?
So, first of all, we wont all
have it among my colleagues,
and for yours, its not
even worth thinking about.
Yet youre clearly proposing
to use it for social experiments.
Tomorrows sociology is your theme,
not the MK-ULTRA 2.0 project.
Come on.
Are you comparing me to the CIA?
Last year, you were so proud to
present me with your greed study project,
and now youre offering me a
sponsorship with a pharmaceutical company,
you dont think theres
something wrong here?
It has nothing to do with it!
Are you sure? Because for
a moment I really thought the
only thing that interested
you in this seminar
- was filling your pockets.
- Im the one who contacted them.
And what they have to
offer us is just a bonus.
You begged a lab.
We had a problem with a subject last year.
What?
Thats it? Thats your excuse?
Look at the next page.
I dont know if this guy is schizo or mytho
but I think this is a case youd like,
he impersonated a test subject
in six different experiments,
just to receive compensation.
And he didnt just do
it with us at the IRS,
he did it with our competitors.
Youd see all the sh*t weve
been through because of that.
Sorry I, Ill be back.
Well?
What happened?
Oh nothing.
An emergency.
So, what does that
have to do with this guy?
Diethylopenthal.
The tests showed no
particular discomfort, just
a slight hallucinogenic
effect during intake.
We are working to correct the problem.
The idea is to present it as the
penthotal of the civilized world.
Penthotal? Is this your project?
Promoting a truth serum.
Why not?
Dont tell me it wouldnt
be useful in your field.
Imagine,
a patient who would have no secrets, who
would tell you everything you need to know,
you could exercise freely, without
having to make a detour, or be manipulated.
I remind you that its part
of my job to build trust.
Precisely,
If the patient consents,
whats the problem?
The problem is
we cant even talk
requirements in these terms.
Why not?
A contrast agent is injected
before you get a CT, right?
Dont pretend to be stupid, its immoral,
even more so if you do it on test subjects.
Besides, how are you
going to make them take it?
Its not complicated,
just tell them that
taking the serum is one
of the conditions for
receiving compensation.
We both know that lie
detectors are unreliable.
This would be the best way to have
a sincere feedback on the experience.
Besides, its not just in our
field that it could be useful,
look at the polls:
we would have better opinion surveys
Do you ever listen to yourself?
You get ripped off by
one of your subjects, and
instead of letting it go,
you make this a generality.
If you want to waste
your time talking about this
thing during your surgery,
thats your problem.
But dont count on me to let you
get back into your obsessive delusions.
Im not your patient anymore.
It will happen, with or without you.
And dont think Im going to
back off because youre in a mood.
Youre as obsessed with
control as I am, if not more.
You may think my job is
hoax, but at least my subjects,
I only handle them for a few hours,
while you, your patients,
expect something else from them.
You want them to depend on you.
Admit it,
you dont care that its immoral,
the only thing youre afraid
of is that it might work,
and youd lose the hold you have over them.
Youre gonna call Zenia,
tell them youre quitting,
and were gonna forget
about this conversation.
Because without counting the
ethical issues involved in free will,
you have neither the hindsight to
know if the repercussions are really
harmless, nor the awareness of
dealing with potentially malicious people
nor the concrete assurance
of its effectiveness.
It goes up, right?
What?
Im sorry, but I really needed to know.
Know what?
You know him?
- Who?
- The subject I showed you.
Yes.
I knew it.
Hes one of your patients, right?
Because you would have already
told me if he was a regular guy.
Yes.
Give me his name.
Phili...
- You didnt dare?
- Dont change the subject.
This guy cost us thousands of euros, so you
cant imagine that I would close my eyes
just for keep a professional secret.
- What the f*ck is wrong with you?
- Sit down
- Youre making a fool out of us.
- You drugged me.
So what? Were not going
to make a big deal out of it!
I took some myself, if that
makes you feel any better.
- How that suppose to make me feel better?
- I dont know,
In doing so, I felt a little guilty.
Especially since you had
a shitty day yesterday,
so I figured if I took
it, itd be less serious.
Besides, I wanted to know how it felt.
So now that its done, lets use it.
'Cause all the sh*t we got from that guy,
- Its your fault.
- My fault?
When I asked your opinion on
the IRS and our competitors' files,
Whered you stash the file?
- In the bookcase.
- There you go!
A confidential file for everyone to see.
And I assume you already left him
alone in your office, the mystery patient?
Yeah, once I told him he could
look at the books while I was sh1tting.
Getting better and be...
- You sh*t during your consultations??
- No,
that was the first time.
No, it wasnt, it was the third.
- Oh, what the hell did you do to me?!
- Give me his name. - f*ck you!
You forgot your stuff!
Is everything all right, sir?
Yes, everything is fine.
My friend is just a little upset because I
drugged us with an experimental product.
It is very good.
Thank you.
In the end,
the only bad thing here, is you.
For Gods sake!
Isabelle!
What do you want?
Where the f*ck are you?
What? Havent you seen my note?
But thats not possible,
are you kidding me?
I dont know, what do you think?
You really think this is the time,
after what happened yesterday?
Lets talk about yesterday:
Who went to clean the
blood in your office while
you were on your way
home to see your wife?
f*ck it, I dont give
a sh*t what you think,
- If you want me to come back, just do it!
- And why would I do that?
Youre as useful as a secretary
as a legless man in a marathon!
I love my wife!
Laura supported me for years every day,
I dont know if I deserve
her, but at least I know
Im not gonna screw up 10 years
of marriage for your beautiful eyes!
Wait, are you serious?
No, thats not what I
meant... Yes, Im serious!
I dont even know if
its love for you: youre
unpredictable, stubborn, spoiled rotten,
Making out with my
secretary, it was an old pricks
whim, a predatory instinct
that took over who I was,
I just wanted a change in my life.
Is that the last thing you want to tell me?
You dont give a sh*t about me.
No, of course youre
brilliant in your own way,
and physically, between you
and my wife, theres no contest.
And thats the problem! When
Im with you, I think with my d*ck!
f*ck!
[Laura: Martin called
me back, sounded weird.
]
] [No, he drugged
me and Ive been cheating on you
[No, he drugged
Oh no No, no no!
No, for f*ck sake!
Oh no.
Hello.
Hello.
Mrs?
Bouvier, I have an appointment at 1:30.
Ah, yeah, so about that, I had a...
To be honest, I...
please, after you.
There is a coat r...
So,
Is there a problem?
Yes.
What brings you here, Madame Bouvier?
I dont know,
my cousin Christine told me about you.
I dont know if...
Christine Bouvier,
Oh yeah, the repressed nymphomaniac,
I have to admit,
I had some pretty
perverse thoughts when I...
Excuse me, I...
And so she advised you to come and see me.
Are you all right?
No,
not really.
But I have no say in it.
Besides,
after all,
Im not the patient.
Please,
continue.
I dont really know where to start.
Take your time.
And above all, forget
what I just told you, huh?
I dont know if its anxiety or
some kind of depression, but,
maybe thats
a strong way to put it, but,
I feel like wherever I go, Im
always running into crazy people.
And the more that happens to me,
the more I wonder if Im not the problem.
I had seen a show that said that
one of the most common habits among
those with mental problems,
was to say that other
people were crazy, not them.
Well, I dont think I am,
even if its not for me to say.
But,
It makes me feel
intolerant and more isolated.
And it stifles me because I
dont recognize myself anymore,
I think that maybe its
because my life is boring that
I feel shocked when a
person is not ordinary,
or is aggressive or
does things that I find...
Im not in their shoes, I dont
know anything about their lives and
I spend my time judging them,
and being a prisoner of my judgment,
so I always wonder if its me or
them, or if its the world thats wrong.
Before I was full of certainties,
I asked myself many
questions that didnt bother me.
The more it goes on, the more its a mess,
and the less Im sure
Ill be useful to anything.
The less I think
anything is actually useful.
Well, maybe I am a little crazy.
What do you think?
What do I think of it?
What I think...
I think that most of
my patients suffer from
something much more common than madness.
What? Depression?
Loneliness.
Either you feel it inside
you, or live it everyday.
Hello.
Come.
The biggest problem is that
you all want the same things.
Ill be back later, kisses, sweetheart.
Bye.
You all want to feel unique,
to have something that makes you special.
And above all, you want to be free:
to act,
to choose.
However,
just the idea of making something
really different scares you.
You fear
judgment,
reprisals, gaze of the other,
and if its so tough to feel
free under these conditions,
Its because nobody
is really free in society.
True freedom,
you have to be alone to find it.
But yes, loneliness can be a prison.
At least between four walls
you can express yourself freely.
But...
nobody wants that kind of freedom.
And dont feel guilty about participating
in this reality by judging others.
You are human,
with all that implies.
And you were right about one thing:
people are irrational.
Indeed, the world is going round,
but life,
it has no meaning unless it is given one.
Give meaning to your
life if you think you lack it.
Or dont.
After all,
existence should be enough.
As long as nobody died, you know.
Well,
I say that,
but you have to accept death as well.
Weep, if it makes you feel good.
But learn to take pleasure
in suffering, because
from a certain age,
it will follow you daily.
In the meantime,
take care of your body, avoid
what poisons you, spend yourself.
Analyze what surrounds you, without
making your critical mind work too much,
because the more you
understand the workings of life,
the more its magic will fade.
Above all,
Learn to always look
on the bright side of life.
To forgive
yourself,
others.
Thats the only way youll find peace.
Because you know:
peace will save you,
not freedom.
Basically, be whoever you
want, as long as you respect life.
From what I see, youre
young, youre not dying,
and youre not going to be
out on the street anytime soon.
Apparently, you can afford an 80 euro
session that wont even be reimbursed.
And believe me,
It wouldnt have been the only one.
Under normal circumstances, you would have
been screwed in the first consultation.
I would have finished it by letting
some suspense hang over your condition,
the possibility for you to
get to know each other better,
talk to you about the next session,
as if I already had your consent,
And I would have kept you on your toes
like that for ten months, if not longer.
By helping you a little, yes, maybe,
but mostly
by exploiting yourself.
And believe me, I would
have had no remorse for that.
Listen,
I had a patient, Denis Lacroix
according to his medical
records, he was a hypochondriac.
Apparently, not that much,
since Mr. Lacroix began to spit
blood in the middle of a session.
He fell right there
in front of your chair.
Pulmonary embolism.
He died before help could get here.
And the saddest part of that story is,
a week before, I managed to
convince him it was in his head.
You said you were losing the beliefs
you had when you were younger,
its normal,
I was convinced that I
would actually save people.
And today,
Im extorting my patients
to live in luxury and to pay
for an employee just to have
the pleasure of banging her.
How about that,
I thought I was gonna slip.
Maybe in the end,
the truth isnt that bad,
and its not that interesting, anyway.
Maybe thats why the lie exists.
At least it sells us dreams,
it whispers in our ears
that we are a special person,
that we have a life of romance
and that we are not born only to die.
So, no,
I am not glorious.
But if you really thought there were
only crazy people besides yourself,
you wouldnt have come
to one of them for advice.
When you feel people staring at you
Wondering what they say about you
I cant tell you why,
but they wonder too
To live wonderful love
And feel wonderful Joyce
We need to be alone
To the next.
Once and for all
Between four walls
Just hear the call
The call of your soul
Once and for all
Between four walls
Just hear the call
Once and for all
When we realize that we are the same
When we overcome our common shame
Maybe there we could live without blame
To live wonderful love
And feel wonderful Joyce
We need to be alone
And you can tell
yourself, day after day
Ill always need
others, but just let me say
"Youve to be alone
to find your own way"
Once and for all
Between four walls
Just hear the call
We need to be alone
Once and for all
Say what you are looking for
Ask yourself if you want more
Once and for all
We need to be alone
