I'm really sorry.
Does he wear glasses
or contact lenses?
Glasses.
You'll have to hurry up.
He decided
that his brown leather shoes
were the best pair to wear.
His back hurt a little,
but not like some other times
in the past,
when the pain was intolerable.
He was thinking his wife
didn't love him at all anymore.
He didn't burst into tears,
and he didn't think
that the first thing most people do
when they realize someone
doesn't love them anymore
is cry.
Sir, do you mind taking
a look into the camera here for me?
That'll do, thank you.
Have you ever been
on your own before?
No, never
- Are you allergic to any foods?
- No.
Your last relationship
lasted how many years?
Around 12.
Do you remember
how long exactly, sir?
11 years and one month.
- Sexual preference?
- Women.
However, I had one h*m*
experience in the past, in college.
Is there a bisexual
option available?
No, sir, this option
is no longer available
since about last summer,
due to several operational problems.
Hmm.
I'm afraid you have to decide
right now
if you want to be registered
as a h*m* or a heterosexual.
I think I should be registered
as a heterosexual.
- Any children, sir?
- No.
And the dog?
My brother. He was here
a couple of years ago,
but he didn't make it.
You might remember him.
Medium build,
48 years old,
bald patch, blond hair.
I'm afraid not, sir.
Okay, I'd like you to write your name
clearly on this form,
in capital letters,
and sign it, please.
That will do.
Thank you very much.
Okay, so you are not allowed to use
the volleyball or the tennis courts.
These are only for the couples.
You can use the facilities
for individual sports,
such as squash and golf.
You can stay in the hotel
for up to 45 days.
You'll be staying
in a single room.
If everything goes well
and you make it,
you'll be moved
to a double room.
Come on, Bob.
I'm afraid you cannot keep
any of your personal belongings.
We will provide everything
you need as far as garments,
accessories
and shoes are concerned.
You can keep this.
- Thank you.
- Shoe size, please?
44 and-a-half.
44 or 45.
There are no half sizes.
45.
If you need a haircut,
call reception one day ahead.
Smoking is not allowed.
That way, you'll be able to run
for longer during the hunt
without getting tired,
and your breath won't smell
when you kiss.
Enjoy your stay.
Excuse me.
If we need to get a haircut,
we must call the reception
the day before, is that right?
- That's right.
- Great.
His room number was 101.
A tranquilizer g*n was hanging
on the wall above his bed.
On the table were
20 tranquilizer darts,
a black plastic watch,
a pair of sunglasses,
and a cologne for men.
Inside the wardrobe were
four identical grey trousers,
four identical button down shirts,
in white and blue,
a belt, socks, underwear,
a blazer, a striped tie,
and a white bathrobe.
He looked out the window.
The unconscious bodies
of the captured loners
were lying on the wet ground.
"Thank God they wear
those waterproof ponchos," he thought.
Room 195.
Two loners,
two extra days.
Room 272.
One loner,
one extra day.
Hello.
I'm the hotel manager and
this gentleman is my partner.
We'd like to welcome you.
You're one of the lucky ones.
You have one of our superior rooms,
which means you have a view.
- Did you read the leaflet?
- Yes, I did.
Very good.
Now the fact that you'll turn
into an animal
if you fail to fall in love with someone
during your stay here
is not something that should upset you,
or get you down.
Just think, as an animal, you'll have
a second chance to find a companion.
But even then,
you must be careful.
You need to choose a companion
that is a similar type of animal to you.
A wolf and a penguin
could never live together.
Nor could a camel
and a hippopotamus.
That would be absurd.
Think about it.
I understand this discussion
is a little unpleasant for you,
but it is my duty to prepare you
psychologically
for all possible outcomes.
Now, have you thought what animal
you'd like to be if you end up alone?
Yes. A lobster.
Why a lobster?
Because lobsters live
for over 100 years...
...are blue-blooded,
like aristocrats...
...and stay fertile
all their lives.
I also like the sea
very much.
I water-ski and swim quite well,
since I was a teenager.
I must congratulate you.
The first thing most people
think of is a dog.
Which is why the world
is full of dogs.
Very few people choose
an unusual animal,
which is why
they are endangered.
A lobster
is an excellent choice.
Could you stand for us, please?
This is to show you
how easy life is
when there are two of something
rather than just one.
We tend to forget that
from time to time.
The handcuff will be removed
at the same time tomorrow.
Sorry, Bob.
I hope you enjoy
your stay with us.
Good bye.
Have a good day.
Good morning.
Room 101.
44 days left.
Breakfast is served.
Sit where you like.
His first day
was one he'd never forget.
Near his table at breakfast
sat a young woman
with her head tilted back.
Later, he would learn
that she often got nosebleeds.
Next to her,
sat her best friend.
He thanked the waiter
who served him his coffee,
then thought about his wife
for a moment.
A woman who seemed
to like butter biscuits
offered one to a man drinking
a Campari and soda for breakfast.
He then looked behind him
and saw a woman,
who he would later find out
was absolutely heartless.
And some others
in the couples area,
whom he'd never meet during
his stay at the hotel.
That morning
he was really hungry.
He could've eaten
a whole chicken,
but ate almost nothing.
Hello.
Hello.
I've decided to go for a walk
outside with my new friend.
Let me introduce you.
This is Robert.
He stays in the room next
to mine and has a lisp.
Pleased to meet you.
I'm staying in room 101.
I'm on the same floor.
I'm 186.
- Would you like to join us?
- Why not?
One of these days, it's gonna
be me on one of those yachts.
What are those yachts?
The final ordeal before
letting you go, and the hardest one.
15 days of vacation,
just a couple, alone.
- Didn't you read the leaflet?
- I did.
- Have you seen John's leg?
- No.
John, would you show your leg?
Oh, yeah.
Room 187, day two.
Hello, everyone.
My mother was left on her own
when my father fell in love
with a woman who was better
at math than she was.
She had a postgraduate degree,
I think,
whereas my mother
was only a graduate.
I was 19 at the time.
My mother entered the hotel,
but didn't make it
and was turned into a wolf.
I really missed her.
I found out
she'd been moved to a zoo.
I often went there to see her.
I'd give her raw meat.
I knew wolves liked raw meat,
but I couldn't figure out
which of the wolves was my mother
so I used to give a little bit
to each of them.
One day, I decided
to enter the enclosure.
I really missed her
and I wanted a hug.
I climbed the fence
and jumped in.
All the wolves charged at once
and att*cked me.
All but two,
who stood motionless.
My guess is that one of those two
must have been my mother.
The zoo guards got to me quite quickly
and took me to the hospital.
Thankfully I didn't lose my leg.
I just have this limp,
which is also
my defining characteristic.
My wife d*ed six days ago.
She was very beautiful
and I loved her very much.
She had a limp too.
Thank you, John.
You can return to your seat.
Let's move on
to our next guest.
Room 104, day two.
Hello, everyone.
This is only
my second day here,
but already I feel like a member
of a wonderful group.

is that I have
a very beautiful smile.

No, no, no.
I'm getting ready to dance.

But don't worry, there are many ways
to remove blood stains from clothing.
One way is to rinse the clothes
with cold water, then rub with sea salt.
Another way is to scrub the stains
with cotton wool dipped in ammonia.
The third way is to mix
flour and water into a paste,
like toothpaste,
especially if the clothes are
delicate or brightly colored.
But just never use
warm water on blood. Ever.

Do hurry up,

Nobody needs to get hurt

And good luck with the hunt.
I wish I didn't have this limp.
I used to be very good
at running, but not anymore.
I'm sure I'll be slower
than them.
If I were you,
I'd think of some tricks
that use the element of surprise
instead of speed.
You're right.
That's what I'll do.

Breakfast is served.
Man eats alone.
- How many darts did you use yesterday?
- 12.
Please take off your trousers
and sit on the bed.
Can we not do this today?
It's awful.
I know, but I'm afraid
we have to do it.
And you have no idea how much
it helps you psychologically
in your search for a partner.
Man eats with woman.
Lay down.
Spread your legs.
More.
ls your room number 186?
Yes, it is.
I imagine you know
that masturbation
is not permitted in the rooms
or any other area of the hotel.
Yes.
And yet it has been
brought to my attention
that you continue to do it.
Today, you became erect quicker
than on other days. That's good.
Please, just a little longer.
Have a good day.
That's awful.
Just awful.
Were you looking
at a photograph
- while you were masturbating?
- Yes.
What did the photograph show?
A naked woman on a horse,
in the country.
If I were in your shoes,
I would not be ogling
the naked woman, but the horse.
I'm sure that horse was once
a weak and cowardly man, just like you.
Woman walks alone.
Help.
Help.
Help.
This is not necessary.
Please.
It was an accident.
I just got carried away.
This is not necessary.
Please, place your hand
in the toaster.
This could be a warning.
L-I’ve been good otherwise.
I...
Ow.
Ow! Ow! Ow!
OW! Ow!
Ow! I'm sorry!
I'm sorry! Please!
Please! Please!
I'm sorry!
Woman walks with man.
What they do,
as soon as you enter the room,
is to wash your body
and your head really well.
How do you know?
My uncle used to know
a waiter who worked here.
No waiters know
about the procedure.
They're not allowed
inside that room.
Nevertheless,
they peel off the skin,
which has become soft due to
the water and the soap.
Afterwards, they remove
the heart, the eyes,
and other vital organs of the body
with a laser or scalpels.
Then the procedure changes,
according to the animal
one has chosen.
That makes total sense.
I mean, I suppose... mammals demand
a different kind of work
- than... fowls, for an example.
- Exactly.
Afterwards they throw
the remaining body parts
into the casks outside
the hotel's restaurant,
and distribute the blood
to the hospitals in the city.
Why is that?
The blood is used for surgeries
where there are
no blood donors available.
- New guests arrived yesterday.
- Yes, I saw.
I think I saw a woman
with a limp.
It's just a sprained ankle.
She'll be walking normally again
in a few days.
That's a shame.
That is a shame, indeed.
One night, on the coach,
he sat next to the woman
who liked butter biscuits.
He gazed out of the window,
not looking at anything
in particular,
just trying to avoid
talking to her.
- How's Bob?
- He's fine.
I'd give anything to go for a walk
with you and Bob one afternoon.
The dog's not allowed
out of the room, I'm afraid.
"There are some excuses
that no one can argue with,"
he thought.
Some excuses are, without doubt,
better than others,
and that was
a really good one.
These biscuits are for Bob.
I want you to give them to him
whenever you want to reward him
for something.
- Tell him they're from me.
- Thank you.
Can I come to your room
some time for a chat?
I could give you a blow job...
or you could just f*ck me.
I always swallow after fellatio
and I've got absolutely no problem
with a**l sex, if that's your thing.
My ex-husband
always used to say
I had the most beautiful thighs
he'd ever seen.
But let's not talk about him.
My room number is 180,
so my telephone extension is 180.
I hope I catch
some loners tonight.
Haven't caught any
in the last few nights.
- Hope you catch lots too.
- Thank you very much.
If I don't find
a suitable partner soon,
I'm gonna k*ll myself by throwing myself
out of one of the rooms.
Out of the window.
I want you to know that.
My room is on the first floor.
"I hope I catch some loners today,"
she said.
"And I hope you catch lots too."
She then told him that if she didn't
find a suitable partner soon,
she was going to k*ll herself
by jumping from one
of the room windows.
320, maybe.
Or one higher up, 480.
That would be even better.
When she stopped talking, he stared
at her blankly, not knowing what to say.
He then looked out at the woods
and thought once more
how good his excuse had been.
Not bad. Bit higher.
Have you thought about
what animals you wanna be
if you don't make it?
A lobster.
I'm gonna be a parrot
if I don't make it.
Why don't you
become parrots too?
And then we'll all be together.
You're a complete idiot! Picking one
of the few animals that can talk
when you have a speech impediment.
You'll lisp, even as an animal.
As for you, they'll catch you
and put you in a pot
of boiling water until you die,
and then they'll cr*ck open
your claws with a tool, like pliers,
and they'll suck out what little flesh
you have with their mouths.
You're pathetic, both of you.
I'm not gonna be
turned into some animal.
I'll come and visit you though,
with my partner,
when we're walking together
in some park,
or when we're swimming
in the sea,
or when we're on one of our trips.
Friends!
I'm not afraid!
Room 187, please.
It's no coincidence
that the targets are shaped
like single people
and not couples.
Hello.
- Hello.
- Your swimsuit is very nice.
Thank...
- Thank you very much.
- You're welcome.
Do you like
to swim breaststroke,
front crawl,
butterfly or backstroke?
I like all strokes equally.
You know, I love breaststroke.
No, really.
My friends often tease me and say,
"Stop swimming
breaststroke all the time".
And then they laugh.
Breaststroke is great.
It's excellent exercise
for the back.
When swimming breaststroke,
men shouldn't wear swim shorts,
as it really limits movement
in the buttocks.
But you knew that, didn't you?
- I think your nose is bleeding.
- Really?
Oh, no.
This happens to me
all the time.
It's really, really annoying.
I know.
I have a nosebleed problem too.
I saw what you did.
Must've hurt.
Is it coming out?
No.
- Yes.
- Can I use a tissue?
Yes.
I'm gonna ask you a question
and I want you to answer me honestly.
What's worse:
to die of cold and hunger
in the woods,
to become an animal that will be k*lled
and eaten by some bigger animal,
or to have a nosebleed
from time to time?
To become an animal that will be k*lled
and eaten by some bigger animal.
- Exactly.
- Mm.
She doesn't suspect
that you're lying?
No.
I'm very happy
because we have a new couple.
They met just two days ago,
but they're very much in love
and perfectly suited.
They both have the same problem
with their noses.
They bleed quite suddenly.
Tomorrow they'll be transferred
to a double room
with a larger wardrobe
and a larger bathroom.
They will remain in the double room
for two weeks,
and then they'll be transferred
to the yachts for a further two weeks.
We wish you every success
and we hope you will return
to the city as a couple.
- I’m very happy.
- Me too.
Congratulations.
The course of your relationship
will be monitored closely by our staff
and by me personally.
If you encounter any problems,
any tensions, any arguing
that you cannot resolve yourselves,
you will be assigned children.
That usually helps.
A lot.
Good morning.
Room 101.
Seven days left.
Breakfast is served.
You have really nice hair.
I know. Look.
How do you like mine?
Well, I think you have
quite dry hair.
The color is okay, though.
The most important thing
is that you're not bald.
However,
when it comes to men,
baldness is always a possibility
you can't avoid.
- Is your father bald?
- No, he isn't.
And even if I, some day,
lose my hair,
there are things I can do
to get my hair back.
I can have a hair transplant.
You can always tell
when someone's had
- a hair transplant.
- I know.
Nice hair is not something
you can get.
It's something you're born with.
And the fact that your father isn't bald
shouldn't put you at ease.
Have you decided what you're going to do
on your last day?
I'm still thinking about it.
Morning, ladies.
So, today is your last day,
and, as is customary,
you can choose how you would like
to spend your last night.
What I always say
in these situations is,
it would be wise to choose something
you can't do as an animal.
For example, read a work
of classic literature
or sing a song you really like.
It would be silly to choose,
for example,
a walk in the grounds
or to have sexual intercourse
with another person,
because those are things
you can do as an animal.
But first, your best friend has written
something she'd like to read to you,
which is really very touching.
"We always sat together
at school"
and whenever I had a problem,
I'd talk to you about it,
because you always gave
the best advice.
When we didn't manage to find
dance partners at the school prom,
the fact that we were together
at that difficult moment
gave me strength.
I'm sorry that things
have come to this.
I'm sure that if you had
a few more days,
you would find someone
just like I did,
because you're an admirable person
and you have very beautiful hair
and very nice breasts...
I was always jealous
of your hair, you know that.
"You were, are, and always
will be my best friend,"
and I'll think of you often,
and I'll always wear
those silver earrings
you gave me for my birthday.
I'll miss you.
And however many new girlfriends
I make in a few days,
when I move back into the city,
"I don't think I'll find
another as true..."
I'd like to watch
the film Stand By Me,
with River Phoenix, Kiefer Sutherland
and Richard Dreyfuss. Alone.
Excellent choice.
Lovely film.
Please leave a message.
Hello.
You're probably in the bathroom
and that's why you can't hear
the phone ring.
Nothing like a cold shower
in the morning.
Well, I'll call you a little bit later,
after you've finished
your shower.
We'll talk later.
Bye.
One day, as he was playing golf,
he thought that it is more difficult
to pretend that you do have feelings
when you don't
than to pretend you don't have feelings
when you do.
He also thought
that he liked her accent,
and he'd always preferred
women with short hair.
So he decided
that she was the one.
During the hunt, he would follow her,
and as soon as she sh*t a loner,
he would say to her:
"I wish we had real g*ns instead
of these silly tranquilizer ones.
Why don't you k*ll him
with your bare hands?"
And the moment she put her hands
around the loner's throat,
he would say:
"I hope he dies right away."
What happened?
She jumped from the window
of room 180.
There's blood
and biscuits everywhere.
I hope she dies right away.
On second thoughts...
I hope she suffers quite a bit
before she dies.
I just hope her pathetic screams
can't be heard from my room,
because I was thinking
about having a lie down
and I need peace and quiet.
I was playing golf
and I'm quite tired.
The last thing I need is some woman
dying slowly and loudly.
I can't hear you
with all the screaming.
We'll talk some other time
when it's quieter.
Goodbye.
Goodbye.
One message.
Hello.
You're probably in the bathroom
and that's why you can't hear
the phone ring.
Nothing like a cold shower
in the morning.
Well, I'll call you a little bit later,
after you've finished
your shower.
We'll talk later.
Bye.
Mind if I join you?
A Martini.
I think we are a match.
Yes, I think so too.
The keys to the double room, please.
I wish you the best of luck.
We all wish you the best of luck.
Do you normally sleep
on the left side of the bed
or the right?
The right. You?
The left. Perfect.
Spread your legs.
Should I turn off the light
or would you like to read?
I'd like to read.
Does the light bother you?
No. I'm not bothered
by light or noise.
I'm a deep sleeper.
- Hello.
- Hello.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you.
This is our new daughter.
Her name's Elizabeth.
Elizabeth, give the nice man a kiss.
He's a friend of mine.
The last thing I want right now
is a kiss from a silly little girl.
Oh!
Come on, move away.
Don't cry, Elizabeth.
You should thank me.
Now you'll have a limp
and be more like your father.
What was that sound?
Did you say something?
No.
Do you mind if we f*ck in a position
where I can see your face?
Sure.
Turn the light on, please,
so I can see you better.
Good morning.
Morning.
I k*lled your brother.
I left him to die very slowly.
He may not be dead yet,
even as we speak.
I was kicking him for ages.
It doesn't matter.
He whined a little,
a strange kind of bark.
Something like this.
It must have been
from the pain.
- You didn't hear anything?
- No.
You really are a deep sleeper.
- Would you like some coffee?
- I’d love some.
As soon as I wash my face
and brush my teeth, though.
I can't wait to hear the story
you promised to tell me last night
about that student of yours
at the university
and his awful final project.
It's really a very funny story.
His name was Ryess.
R-Y-E-S-S.
Ryess.
These aren't tears, it's just water.
I just washed my face.
I knew you were lying.
I can't understand why you did it,
when you know as well as anyone
that a relationship
cannot be built on a lie.
We're going
to the hotel manager right now
and you'll get the punishment
you deserve.
What's the punishment for this?
They turn you into the animal
no one wants to be.
I saw your partner
running back that way.
He looked frantic.
Is everything okay?
At first,
he wanted to k*ll her
in some horrible and painful way,
like the death she had inflicted
on his brother.
He thought about kicking her
in the stomach over and over again,
and then stabbing her
in the same spot, in the stomach.
But then he thought
there wouldn't be much point,
because she was
already unconscious
and wouldn't feel any pain
from the kicks or the Kn*fe.
You have to sh**t me,
so they won't suspect I helped you.
A hotel maid helped him.
He couldn't understand
why she did it.
So he decided to turn her
into an animal.
He dragged her to the room
where the transformations took place.
I asked him many times
what sort of animal he turned her into,
but he always gave me
the same answer:
"That's none of your concern."
That night he left the hotel,
once and for all.
He began to run without knowing
where he was headed.
But he was headed towards us.
This was the start
of his new life.
And back then he didn't know
how much it hurts to be alone...
...how much it hurts
when you cannot reach
to rub pain relief ointment
on your back
and you are constantly in pain.
I found him in the woods.
He escaped from the hotel.
- Are you a doctor, by any chance?
- No.
That's a pity.
We need a doctor around.
We had one, but they caught him
a couple of months ago.
I'm an architect.
That's okay.
So welcome.
You can stay with us
for as long as you like.
You can be a loner
until the day you die.
There is no time limit.
Thank you very much.
By the way,
any romantic or sexual relations
between loners are not permitted.
And any such acts are punished.
Is that clear?
Can I have a conversation
with someone?
Of course you can,
so long as there is no flirting
or anything like that.
That applies
to dance nights as well.
You all dance by yourselves,
that's why we only play
electronic music.
What happened to your mouth?
He can't speak.
He was given the Red Kiss.
What's the Red Kiss?
We slashed his lips with a razor
and the lips of another loner
and we forced them
to kiss each other.
That was
a couple of days ago now,
but the cuts were deep
and they're still in pain.
They were flirting,
you know?
Some punishments
are worse than other punishments.
Having your thumb cut is worse
than having your head shaved,
and having a hot boiled egg
under your armpit
is worse than having
your leg kicked.
The punishment I'm afraid of
isn't the Red Kiss,
but another one that is called
the Red Intercourse.
I have never seen it happen,
but it's not difficult
to imagine what it means.
Oh, my God,
I am so afraid of it.
Move!
Hide!
Move!
Hide!
That was the first time I saw him.
He was hiding behind a tree
close to mine.
He seemed quite presentable.
The next day, in the city,
he found out
that I was short-sighted too.
That night, in my sleep,
I dreamt that we lived in a big house
together in the city,
with a large, well-lit kitchen,
and I was wearing dark blue trousers
and a tight cream blouse.
And he took my clothes off
and f*cked me up the arse.
And as he was f*cking me,
a thug came into the kitchen
and took the steak knives
from the second drawer and att*cked us,
stabbing the knives
into our bellies, one by one.
I woke up terrified.
Try harder.
Don't give up. You know you should've
been more careful.
Try harder or they'll find you
and you'll be turned into an animal.
A weak one.
We must get a move on now.
It's really too dangerous to stay here.
If you manage to free yourself,
run as fast as you can
and come find us.
If you manage to free yourself
but think you'll die from the bleeding,
go straight to your grave.
Have you dug your own grave?
Yes.
Very good.
That's enough for now.
I'm going to go
hunting for truffles.
They are delicious
and quite rare.
A kilo can fetch
a lot of money.
You're going to need a pig.
They're impossible to find otherwise.
- I know.
- Don't be long.
Gotta get them back
in 50 minutes.
Okay.
Hello, David.
Hello, Robert.
What you did to that woman
was dreadful.
She k*lled my brother.
I would have done the same thing
if she'd k*lled you.
You're like a brother to me.
Oh, you're my best friend
in the whole world.
I don't think I'm your best friend
in the whole world.
You used to spend
much more time with John.
Oh, who's John?
- John, the limping man.
- Oh, yeah.
I didn't even remember his name...
or his face.
You're the one I think of
whenever I need a friend.
Nevertheless,
did John make it?
They're getting ready
for the yacht.
It all begins this week.
Everyone says they're going to make it
as they're perfectly suited
and the child will help them
get past the fighting and the arguing.
That's great.
You're not thinking
about coming back?
You know, if you told the hotel manager
about your brother,
she'd probably forgive you.
No. It's really nice
to be on your own.
There's no one tying you down.
You listen to music
whenever you like,
you masturbate
whenever you want,
go for walks whenever you like,
have a chat whenever you like.
I don't miss companionship at all.
I just miss you, because you were
my one true friend.
Are you gonna sh**t me?
I'm afraid so.
I only have two days left.
What did you say?
I can't understand the way you speak.
I'm going to sh**t you.
I only have two days left.
I need more time.
Do you actually believe another day
will make a difference?
Have you seen how ugly you are?
You haven't got a chance.
If I was a woman, I’d...
Don't tell anyone I helped you.
If you want to repay me,
there is a way.
If you k*ll a rabbit,
bring it to me to eat.
- Do you promise?
- Yes.
- Bye.
- Bye.
You carefully flay
the rabbit with a sharp Kn*fe,
and cut off its head.
You then slice open its belly
and stuff it with well-washed
red and green peppers,
not too spicy,
and a little garlic
and mint.
You then soak it
in lemon juice
and leave it a while
to marinate the flesh,
before you skewer it
on a stick
and roast it over the fire
for about an hour.
That's my favorite food.
Rabbit.
Woman.
Brunette. 50 years old.
Marriage certificate expired
two months ago.
My husband's away
on a business trip.
Yeah, okay.
Can I have a look?
Hands.
No dirt under her nails
or mud on her shoes.
9 Belsize Road.
- So your husband is away?
- Yes.
- Where?
- Bath.
Good morning, sir.
Are you here alone?
Good morning, Officer.
No, I'm here with my partner.
She's inside one of the stores
shopping right now.
Can I see your certificate,
please?
My partner keeps it in her purse.
You see, I am losing it
all the time.
I see. And what store
is she shopping in?
Oh, here she is.
I'm sorry, darling.
They had such a huge variety
of pain relief ointment.
I bought you this one. I hope
it's the one you were looking for.
That's wonderful, dear.
- Can I have my certificate, please?
- Of course, darling.
Would you like
to see mine also, Officer?
No.
That's okay.
Thank you, sir.
You have a good day.
Thank you, Officer.
You have a good day.
- Madam.
- Sir.
If I'm walking too slowly, just say
and I'll pick up my pace.
This pace is fine.
Maybe don't squeeze my hand so tightly,
my palm's getting a little sweaty.
- Better?
- Yes, much better.
Are you planning on buying anything else
nice for yourself while we're here?
Yes, contact lens solution
and a Parker Rollerball.
I didn't know
you were short-sighted.
I'm short-sighted too.
Will you stay a few days?
I'm afraid not, Papa.
We're heading back again today.
Tomorrow I'm going away
on a business trip.
You know how demanding
my job is.
Don't ask if I can stay a few days
every time I come.
Do you all work
for the same company?
- Yes.
- Yes.
My daughter says me
it's a very fine company.
Do you agree?
- It's a rather good company.
- It is.
One of the best, I'd say.
The only problem with the job
is that I don't have enough time
for my wife and kids.
We have four beautiful children.
Congratulations.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
But even if we'd never
had children,
I would never dream
of leaving my wife.
Even if it was just the two of us,
on our own,
we'd go on trips.
We'd go to Portofino in Italy,
or go to a Greek island
for the summer,
and so our relationship
would be as intense
as it was at the start.
I love... my wife so much.
I could die for her.
That's how much I love her.
For your first day
in the city, you did great.
That part about holiday destinations
in the Mediterranean was brilliant.
Thank you very much.
When did you
become short-sighted?
When I was 16.
- You?
- When I was 12.
What was the make
of your first pair of glasses?
I don't remember.
- Do you have astigmatism too?
- Yes.
Would you like me to rub
some balm on your back...
...on the bits you can't reach
on your own?
I'd like that.
- Here?
- A little lower, please.
- Here?
- Yes.
"Hello, everyone, and good luck."
The room numbers
are as follows.
Room 306, the hotel manager
and her partner.
They both...
They both have nice voices.
Room 240,
couple who both love to ski.
Room 282, couple who both
studied social sciences.
Bliss.
Couple prone to nosebleeds."
You and you take 306.
You and you take 240.
You take 282.
And you two take the yacht.
Can I go to the yacht?
Okay, then.
So you take the yacht.
And you take 282.
And us three,
we'll take the manager's room.
We have 40 minutes.
...you need to speak
with the manager.
Wake up.
Get up.
Sit in that seat over there.
Put your hand behind your back.
A basketball weighs between
550 and 650 grams.
- Did you know that?
- No, I didn't know that.
Yes.
The weight's different
for men's and women's games,
but that's roughly
how much it weighs.
Do you know how much
a volleyball weighs?
No, but I'd like to find out.
- Good evening.
- Good evening.
I have something to tell you.
His nose doesn't really
bleed on its own.
He bangs it against a wall,
or a piece of hardwood
or something like that.
Or he cuts it with a penknife
when you're not looking.
You two are not suited.
Shut up!
Dad, tell him to leave.
I'm sleepy.
And I'm quite sure that stain
on his T-shirt isn't blood,
but cherry juice,
or tomato ketchup
or red watercolor paint,
or something like that...
Or beetroot juice.
Do you love her?
With all my heart.
How much do you love her,
on a scale of one to 15?
14.
14 is a very impressive score.
He loves her very much indeed.
Who do you think
we should k*ll?
Who will be able to live
on their own better?
Here is a Kn*fe, Mum!
k*ll him!
You'd better get out
while you still can.
Okay.
That's all I came to say, anyway.
You.
If this woman dies...
...do you think you'll manage
on your own
or will you get involved
with someone else?
No. I can live alone,
she can't.
I'm on my own for hours
when she's running the hotel.
I like sitting in the room.
It relaxes me...
calms me.
I like it a lot.
I can definitely live
on my own.
Be quiet.
Take it.
sh**t her.
No!
No! No!
No, God, no!
Where were you?
I was looking for you.
I was masturbating
behind those trees over there.
Why aren't you dancing?
My leg's a little sore.
- Did you dig your grave?
- Not yet.
I don't mean to pressure you or to ruin
the mood now that we're celebrating,
but, at some point,
you'll have to do it.
Don't expect anyone else
to dig your grave for you,
or to carry your corpse.
We'll throw some dirt over you,
but that's about it.
Tomorrow find a spot you like,
where the ground isn't too rocky,
and make a start.
- Enjoy the rest of your evening.
- Thank you.
As soon as his last patient left,
I entered his office
and I said to him:
"Honey, the dinner is ready."
However, I'm not sure
I can eat right now.
One of my front teeth
hurts a lot.
"Can you take a look,
please, dear?"
"Yes, sure, no problem," he said.
And the minute he turned his head,
I took the drill and I shoved it
into his chest.
That story sounds
really interesting, but I have to leave.
I just remembered I left some batteries
next to a tree down there.
And the last thing I want
is to lose them. Sorry.
Did you catch rabbits?
No, someone brought me them.
- Who?
- A friend of mine.
- Do you want one?
- No.
You don't need to accept rabbits
from other people.
If you need more rabbits, just ask
and I'll bring you more.
Catching a rabbit is difficult,
but I'll try to do better.
There's no need for you
to be indebted to the others.
Thank you very much.
The man who brought you
the rabbits...
is he short-sighted?
I don't know.
I don't think so.
Okay.
Is that a sparrow up in that tree?
I can't really see that far,
but I don't think so.
- Are you short-sighted?
- No.
- You're lying.
- It's the truth.
What does it say here?
YKK.
You knew that already.
All zips say the same thing.
I'm not short-sighted.
I don't understand
why you won't believe me.
I can see really clearly.
I used to be a pilot.
You're wearing contact lenses.
I don't wear contact lenses.
I'm not short-sighted.
- I swear.
- You are.
You think I'm an idiot and can't tell.
Let me see.
Let me see.
I wanna see your eyes.
Look up. Look up.
Look down now.
Look left.
Look right.
UP again.
I'm sorry.
I-| thought you were trying
to fool me.
I'm sorry.
For this synchronization exercise,
we have to fully concentrate,
as we both have to press play
at exactly the same time.
Why don't we just use
one headset?
Because that's the whole point.
This is an exercise for us.
We have to be
totally synchronized.
Okay.
- I’m ready.
- Okay.
Five, four, three, two...
We've developed a code,
so that we can communicate
with each other,
even in front of the others,
without them knowing
what we are saying.
When we turn our heads
to the left, it means:
"I love you more than anything
in the world,"
and when we turn our heads
to the right, it means:
"Watch out, we're in danger."
We had to be very careful
in the beginning not to mix up
"I love you more than anything
in the world"
with "Watch out, we're in danger."
When we raise our left arm,
it means:
"I want to dance in your arms".
When we make a fist
and put it behind our backs,
"Let's f*ck."
The code grew and grew
as time went by,
and within a few weeks we could talk
about almost anything
without even
opening our mouths.
Stop it!
That's enough!
Show my parents some respect.
They are playing you music.
That's okay.
No, Mother.
It is not okay.
Please continue.
Do you want us
to perform the same piece
or something else?
Something else.
Didn't her parents
play beautifully?
Yes, they did.
It was wonderful.
We love each other
and we suit each other,
and that's the reason why we've decided
to leave the woods
and stay together forever
in the city.
Tomorrow, during the hunt,
we're going to disappear
and everyone will think
we've been captured
and that we're going to be turned
into dogs or canaries or something.
I think the first thing I'm going to do
when I get into the city
is buy a bathrobe,
and then we'll go to a pool
with a high diving board,
perfect for diving.
"And we'll do lots
of different things together,"
serious things, not silly ones,
"like go for walks in the park
or play the guitar together."
Italian fishing village,"
an upmarket resort famous
for its picturesque harbor.
Population, 439.
Beaches nearby:
Paraggi Beach, Camogli,
Chiavari and Lavagna.
"Greek island located
in the western Cyclades."
Can you imagine why I brought you
to such a quiet place today?
No.
Because I think it's the perfect spot
for your grave.
Now cover yourself with soil.
Use your hands.
Over your face, too.
You wouldn't want your face
to get eaten by dogs, would you?
If you die before me,
I'll visit you as often as I can.
I promise.
I think we should leave
right now.
The three of us coming here
instead of two or four of us
is very dangerous.
Why didn't we
think of that earlier?
Highly likely the doctor
will suspect us.
I suggest that we leave
the first chance we get.
Right now, in fact.
Don't be afraid.
No one will suspect a thing.
I bet you weren't expecting
this surprise.
- Isn't it wonderful?
- Yes, it is.
Still, I'd like a few days
just to think it over,
so that... I can maybe
have the surgery
when we next come to the city?
What's there to think about?
If it's better to see clearly
or to be short-sighted? ls that it?
That's absurd.
You know that.
Anyway, this doctor
is the best there is,
and it's really very difficult
to get an appointment.
I called him months ago
to get him to see you today.
She's blind.
Thank you.
Throw down your Kn*fe
and stand up.
Why did you have to blind me?
You could have blinded him.
I have no idea
what you're talking about.
The dr*gs are messing
with your head.
If I were you, I would try and be
a little braver about the whole thing.
Now get up
and give me your Kn*fe...
or I'll hit you
and take it by force.
- Here I come.
- I swear, I'm going to k*ll you.
Let go of my hair.
You're hurting me.
Just think that,
when someone goes blind,
one of their other senses...
is heightened.
You could also
catch a dog in the woods
and train it to guide you.
Dogs can do that, you know.
I'll help you
catch a dog myself.
Now calm down,
or I'm going to leave you here
and I don't think you'll manage
to find meeting point two on your own.
Are you enjoying the view?
Sure.
What happened to your hand?
I was cutting a tree branch
with a Kn*fe
and I cut myself by accident.
You look handsome today.
Did you get your hair cut?
Thank you.
No, I didn't get a haircut.
I'm going to get
my hair cut today.
- Look what I brought you.
- Oh, thank you so much.
I'm so hungry,
I'll eat it right away.
- It's a bigger flashlight.
- Oh, I'm sorry.
It's so big I thought
it was a rabbit.
Biggest flashlight
I've ever seen.
Oh.
Are you ready for tonight?
Of course I am.
I want to tell you something,
but please don't be angry.
Okay. What's wrong?
I can't see anything.
- I’m blind.
- What do you mean?
There's no point in lying to you,
you'll find out sooner or later.
Our leader blinded me
in the city.
She must have realized
that I love you,
and... you love me,
and... that we were going
to run away to the city together.
I'm sorry.
You can't see at all?
No, not at all.
And when you asked
if I'd had my hair cut?
I was just saying that...
...so you wouldn't realize
that I can't see.
I'm sorry.
Don't cry. Crying will make
your eyes hurt more.
We'll find a way.

10 out of 10 again.
Can I give you a kiss?
I can't thank you enough
for all the activities and games
and for keeping me company,
but you know
we can't do that anymore.
Would you like to play another round
of "touch-guess-think-win"?
No. That's enough for today.
In any case, I've run out
of things to test you with.
Oh.
Maybe tomorrow...
or one of these days.
Tomorrow morning?
Uh, we'll see.
- Bye.
- Bye.
Good afternoon.
How are you?
Fine.
I’m hungry-
You haven't brought me
a rabbit for days.
Or things for me
to touch and guess.
I've got good news.
I've had a great idea.
Have you a minute?
What kind of idea?
I raise my left foot.
I bring my elbow to my knee
and tap it twice.
I bring my foot to my knee
and tap it three times.
I lie face down.
I kneel down.
I touch my left cheek...
...and then lie face up.
Are you sure
you're prepared to do that?
Yes, of course I'm sure.
I wouldn't propose it otherwise.
When?
Tomorrow.
Tomorrow.
We should speed up a little.
I can't go much faster.
These trousers are too tight.
I'm sorry.
It was dark
and I couldn't see clearly,
and I didn't have time
to try them on.
I'm sorry.
Never mind.
There's a bus coming.
It was the hotel coach.
They didn't see us.
Profile.
Fingers.
Elbows.
Would you like me
to show you my belly?
No.
I... I remember your belly
very well.
Smile.
Can I have a Kn*fe and fork,
please?
Not a butter Kn*fe.
A steak Kn*fe.
Certainly.
Thank you.
I'm going to do it with a Kn*fe.
- Do you want me to come with you?
- I’d rather you didn't.
Don't worry.
It's strange at first,
but then you get used to it.
And your other senses
are heightened.
Touch, for example,
and hearing.
I know.
I won't be long.
Thank you very much.
