- Eat up.

- Do you want me to wet my pants?

This is your final warning.

- All right.

- Please, Kelly.

I'm going upstairs

to see what's happening.

It's ringing.

Yes, hello. I'd like to speak

to Rjeanne Bilodeau, please.

This is Diane.

I run the hostel

that Keyla is staying in.

She's like to talk to Amlie

if possible.

I see.

Yes.

I understand.

I'll tell her.

Yes.

Thank you.

Yes. Goodbye.

She says your departure

has led to a lot of tension

and that it's best

to cut off contact for a while.

Is there anyone else

you'd like to talk to?

You have no restrictions

on who you can contact.

That's good.

It means you can call who you like.

Well done.

Keep up the good work.

Shut up!

Shut your face!

Up, down.

With the thumb.

That's it.

Again?

- Hi, girls.

- Hi.

- All right?

- Yes.

I was wondering...

Can I go to the library after school

to take out some books?

You should really ask Diane

but I can't see her saying no

since it's for something positive.

That's true.

What? It is true.

You're so naughty!

- It's cold.

- There's snow forecast for tonight.

- Did you get on OK at the library?

- Yes.

Do you have anything to say?

No.

OK.

No more going out after school.

- Why?

- Stop it, Keyla.

- Stop what? I'm not doing anything.

- Keyla.

What?

Your former foster family phoned.

What did we say?

No contact.

What's going on?

Those are mine.

She gave them to me.

- She gave them to me.

- They're not yours.

Give me my things.

- Where are my things?

- If you want me to open the door...

Open the door and tell me...

OK, OK.

I've calmed down.

Thief!

Hello, Mgane.

My name is Martine.

I'm the youth worker here.

I just want to know

where my things are.

I'll answer your questions

after lunch.

Now it's time for a wash.

Put your top back on, please.

I don't feel the cold.

You're inappropriately dressed.

Your shoulders must be covered.

Is this a hostel for lesbians?

Wait here for me.

- Do it up, please.

- All right.

Mind your own business.

Don't stare.

You must put slippers on

to go out.

Here.

Are you kidding?

Is this to deliberately piss us off?

- Can you pass me a tissue?

- Silence.

I just asked her to...

Washing takes place in silence.

Final warning.

May I remind you that you're here

to reflect on your actions,

not to make friends.

You are banned from revealing

any information about yourself

apart from your first names.

I don't want to hear any surnames,

street names or names of schools.

No names of friends or anyone.

Not even the name of your dog.

Is that clear?

Anyone breaking the rules

can eat in their room.

On the other hand,

I've got a game for you.

It's a guessing game.

Put your hands up

and wait to be picked.

Ready?

As soon as I am mentioned

I disappear.

- As soon as I am... Yes?

- Love?

No, it's not that.

But that's a good answer.

Good job it's not that.

That would be sad.

- Yes?

- Silence.

Silence. Yes, that's right.

As soon as it's mentioned

it disappears. Do you all see?

We can't see it

but it's always in front of us.

We can't see it...

- Yes?

- The future.

The future.

It's not fair. You know them all.

It's not my fault

if you don't change your stock.

OK, girls.

Actually, I have a new one.

Listen carefully.

It takes place in Afghanistan.

A soldier is captured by the Taliban

who say to him,

"If the next thing you say is a lie,

"you will be decapitated.

"If the next thing you say

is the truth,

"you will be shot."

What must the soldier say

to stay alive.

He'd be better off

keeping his mouth shut.

Put your hand up

if you want to speak.

- Final warning.

- Just like I said.

Take her away.

Hello, Mgane.

It's time to take stock

of your escape.

We need to review the situation.

Four months on the run

is a long time.

How was it for you?

Good or...?

Were there lots of drugs

in the flat you were found in?

Did you take drugs every day?

Isn't it time you were going?

On Friday...

you'd better come up with an idea.

Otherwise,

they'll decide for you.

Everyone's always deciding for me.

You made your own decisions

for four months. Was that easier?

Yes.

Was it easy every day?

Yes, easier than here.

- Do you want to go back?

- Yes.

- Tell me about it.

- I don't want to.

Mgane?

I can't help you

if you refuse to cooperate.

I want to be left alone.

You think you're alone

but lots of people

are looking out for you.

I'm not so sure about that.

No one's looking out for me.

Everything I say

counts against me.

The questions are all traps.

I can't say or do anything.

I'm not stupid.

Far from it.

Will you leave me alone?

- Your mother phoned.

- I don't give a sh*t. Shut up.

Shut up.

It's after ten.

You're meant to be in bed.

Don't make me have to call a guard.

It's not worth it.

Think how much more comfortable

you'll be in bed.

There.

Good night.

We've got to go.

This is my letter to the judge.

I'm going to read it to you

so listen carefully

because it concerns you.

Here goes.

"Mgane argues

and answers back all the time,

"playing down her actions.

"Despite the propitious conditions,

"namely the support of staff

"and the resources on offer,

"Mgane still has

behavioural issues.

"She flouts the rules,

is verbally aggressive, takes drugs

"and runs away on impulse,

"putting herself at risk.

"Therefore,

we recommend to the tribunal

"that she be placed

in a rehabilitation centre

-"for a maximum period of one year.

- One year?

You see what I mean

about you being impulsive?

- Here we go!

- I didn't say a year.

What did I say?

What did I say, Mgane?

I said for a maximum period

of one year.

What does that mean?

It means, it depends on you.

P5 to base.

Go ahead.

- Get up!

- She's up!

Off she goes.

Go, go, go!

She did it! We won!

We won!

We won!

We won!

We won!

Time to go back in, girls.

Calm down, please.

Go on.

Come on, sweetheart.

There.

My dear Manu,

it's your turn

to let yourself talk of love.

My dear Manu,

it's your turn

to let yourself talk of love.

Thank you.

Make a wish.

Nice one, Manu.

Nice, isn't it?

- It's crazy, all that stuff.

- It's useful.

Bathroom.

Ah, yes.

You'll see.

The more you put into life,

the better things will get.

Right, well...

Manu, it's me.

What are you doing?

Puking your guts out?

I don't know.

I don't feel well.

You've hardly drunk anything.

Splash your face and drink water.

That will make you feel better.

Who is that guy?

His friends are so cool.

They've brought tons of bottles.

It's like a proper bar.

Hey! Come on, it's party time!

We're really lucky to be here.

It's cool.

It's meant to be fun.

What's the matter?

He said

he thought you were pretty.

- Really?

- Yes.

Come and join us.

It is your birthday after all.

Come on and party.

Come and join us.

Have fun.

Hello?

I was wondering

where you'd got to.

Happy birthday.

Relax.

You can go now, Manu.

It's dead. I'm closing early.

- But I was just...
