I'm not shy. Why should I be shy?
So ask her.
Go and ask her if you don't believe me.
Hm... You know I'm crazy... hm... hm...
I know.
You two were made for each other.
You're just making that up.
You torture each other.
You photograph each other with your eyes
And you think that I'm a fool.
If it weren't for me,
you'd starve to death.
So what?
Come, I want to show you something.
Look, she's not scared of them anymore.
She's putting them into the pot.
Martha! Martha! What are you doing?!
I'm burning them.
She's burning them...
Leave them alone.
What have they done to you?
Well, what have those birds done to you?
Here I am! Here they are!
Come! Come!
Who is that? A fool.
Martha... Martha... Martha...
What?
Go!
What kind of game are you playing?
Why are you only with him all day?
And you don't talk to me,
you don't even know me.
And at night, you act like nothing
happened.
Sleep with me!
Mhm...
Sleep with me!
Mhm...
Yes!
You are jealous. Don't laugh.
I want you to like me.
I'm learning to be cheerful.
I don't know that. I know one thing.
That you love me.
There, there.
You love me.
I don't love you.
You love me.
I don't.
Not at all. I don't want to lie
to myself.
Better to kill myself than...
To kill... To kill... Hm...
My parents, mother, brother, father,
they didn't die.
They perished. Perished disgracefully
like lepers.
And other... You understand...
What do you want? What do you want?
Do you want to make love?
Do you want to?
Why do you humiliate me so?
Leave us alone! Go away from us!
Andrew and I will be fine, like before.
And you can think of your father,
your mother...
Go and photograph with your eyes.
Put your arms around me, Yorick, hug me.
I like you.
Leave us. Don't send me away, Yorick.
Maybe the Jews really are
truly filthy.
What? Filthy.
What did you say? Yuk!
Yes, filthy!
I'll kill you! I will!
Here! Run!
Martha! Martha! Martha! Martha!
Martha! Where are you? Can you hear me?
Martha! Hey Martha, Martha.
Don't look for her. I threw her out.
I know.
Hey, Yorick, how come that
someone has a small cock
and another has a big one?
You see, Andrew, it's the same
with every organ.
When it's put to work, it grows strong.
My dad also has a big one.
And what does he do with it, hey?
He wags it.
Yes, for daddy death,
for mommy coffin,
for godfather reaper,
for uncle Stefanik...
And for the star of Mao?
Mhm...
Life is beautiful! Yuk!
You were touching me again last night.
You stroked me again, Mr. Yorick.
Why don't you talk about God, instead?
God doesn't like me anymore.
Don't be sad, landlord!
What's the use of knowing how to play
the piano?
You achieved more.
You've gotten to know us.
You haven't wasted your life.
It'll be happy. It'll be happy.
Happy. We are happy.
Truly happy.
Man touches nice things,
his skin smells of sunlight,
birds are flying around and chirping.
A person is surrounded by so many
good people...
...has peace in his soul.
When he plays the piano,
tossing motes of dust into the air.
They jump -brlm- and again
slowly drop down.
Brlm- and the dust slowly settles again.
Like this - brlm...
I can't, they're waiting for me.
Can you see him? There he goes...
I have nothing to talk to him about.
Just come, nicely... Come...
They are waiting for me.
But, Andrew, you know...
They can wait. He's waiting too. Come.
Let me go, there's no sense in it.
Oh!
Look!
Good morning, I brought you something
to eat.
Good morning! Wake up!
I brought you something to eat.
Wake up!
Hey, grandma, good morning!
Jesus Christ.
How can we pay you back, grandma?
You should've let me in through the door
Oh, but it was good.
I want another one.
What shall we give you for it?
What shall we give?
Want the engine? Anything can be yours.
Come and choose, grandma.
Everything here is yours.
What good will the light do to me?
Hold her! Hold her!
Oh! Martha! Martha!
Stop!
Don't hit! Don't hit!
Wait! Hey!
I'll take your picture.
Get on your knees!
Cross yourself.
Ho, my sheep!
Laokon!
Fire! Fire!
Wait... I like you... I love you... I like
you... I love you... I like you... Moment!
I am glad you are with us, Martha.
Me too.
Do you like him now? Yes, I do.
Look, what he's doing!
Come!
Watch out! Careful!
The new wave!
Come back to us, Martha!
Yes...
Believe me, everything you cling on to,
everything you cling on to in life,
will change into its opposite.
Only madness guarantees
that you won't remain unhappy.
I know... I know... I know...
Change!
Now... Now...
The wheels are still turning...
Death is still far off and it's snowing.
Before a snowflake falls
it stops snowing.
I've always been on the run.
Running from the world.
But it was only running from myself.
I know you knew it.
We can't master life...
We can't master love...
So let us enjoy it a while.
At least something.
Those moments that go by.
At least a little bit of happiness...
...then the sea will come. Yes, the sea.
You're giving up sooner than necessary.
I cannot.
I like you very much.
I can die now. Me too.
Martha! ...if you love me.
I love you.
I believe you. You can't let me down.
You can't, can't...
What's up? Why are we stopping?
What happened?
What do I know what happened?
Gas! We've run out of gas!
What do we do now?
Somebody will give us some. Hey! Hey!
Wait! It's the police!
Run away! I'll take the blame!
What's going on here? What is this?
Hide it! I'll take the blame!
What are you doing here?
Why are you waving your arms like that?
Toss it away! Go on!
A nut! I'm with you, stay with me!
Yes, I am with you too.
Hm... hm... Do you hear me?
Now I know that all you need is love.
We need to build the world on love.
One has to love everybody.
Even those, Martha, Andrew, who do evil.
God, God gave us the gift of love.
To purify us
and those he hates.
who kill the defenseless.
And then... There will be
no victories and no defeats.
Do you hear me?
It's a pity you're being addressed by
a swindler who is shitting.
See you next year.
Yorick! Yorick!
Welcome!
Look! A surprise! What's that?
Your new coat.
Mr. Yorick, welcome!
We were sad here without you.
Come, come! I'll show you something.
You'll see a miracle.
Look, it is a miracle!
The fingers fly all by themselves!
Brlm... brlm... Brlm...
And they are... All by themselves.
Haha, it's a miracle! It is a miracle!
O you like it here?
They've started to publish my work.
Guess how much I got for that!
I don't know.
I'll start taking pictures too. I will.
Yorick, listen, would you mind
sleeping under the tree?
You'll sleep well here, you'll see.
Especially in the morning. Don't move.
You don't photograph with your eyes
anymore?
What's up? Why are you so sad?
They let me think.
I had enough time for it.
And all of a sudden I felt the emptiness
