Deep breaths. Calm down.

Take your time. Breathe.

Easy now...

Thanks...

OK, push, push, push!

Push! Push, that's it!

Yes! That's it!

You've done it!

A fine boy!

Hand me a cloth!

Thank you, Doctor!

You have a boy. A handsome boy!

What a nice surprise!

Do play a set with us.

I filled up with air and gas

and vacuumed her. Here...

Don't thank me.

Call me, okay?

I've nearly finished the first coat.

Come see.

What are you doing?

Put that down. Give me your hand,

we're going. Enough.

Going where?

Home. It's over.

- Home?

- Home to France.

Are you serious?

Take a look around you.

What are we doing here?

There's nothing for us here.

We're not from here.

Look at this place.

All the tenants gave us their trash!

What is this painting?

Do you like it?

It makes me feel sick!

I think it's pretty.

You've changed, Gisle.

We have to leave. I got you a ticket.

The plane leaves in 4 hours.

We're going home,

back to our real life.

- My real life is here.

- But what about mine?

Are you giving up

at the first hurdle?

What do you want to go back to?

We spent 25 years looking,

we finally found it.

And you don't even realize!

Come on, we're going home.

Here...

You're not listening.

Go if you want to. I'm staying.

You're not even a real Jew.

The flight's at 9:30.

I'll wait for you at the airport.

Last call for Mr. Alain Gaash.

Please come to Gate number eight.

Flight AF722 boarding immediately

for Paris Charles de Gaulle.

Thank you.

Let's start again.

Why did you check in that suitcase?

I've told you 100 times,

I'm going to Paris.

- Why Paris?

- I live there.

You live in Paris?

I lived there.

You said you lived in Tel Aviv.

Yes, I live in Tel Aviv.

Why were you going to Paris?

I don't know.

You don't know why?

Because I...

Because you live there?

No, I... I live in Tel Aviv.

Why didn't you get on the plane?

Why didn't you answer the calls?

I didn't hear...

I didn't understand.

My Hebrew is very bad.

You don't speak Hebrew?

Very badly.

Prove it.

Can you make holes

in the universe with your eyes?

We know

your mama sleeps with bunnies.

We have the photos.

You're very good...

The travel agency said

they sold you 2 tickets.

Yes.

It was for my wife.

For your wife?

Where is this wife?

In Tel Aviv.

Tel Aviv...

Gisle Gaash,

ne Carette.

36 Shalom Yehuda Street.

If you know the answers, why ask?

Why did you come to Israel?

Are you Jewish?

Yes, I am Jewish.

Do you know a Dr. Brant?

Yes, so what?

He circumcised you...

recently.

You're not Jewish.

Who are you?

Where are you from?

What do you want?

I'm tired. I want to go home.

Home... Where's that?

Home...

I'm tired.

I don't understand.

Eat, Alain, eat.

No...

Can I have a cigarette?

Help yourself.

Thanks.

She's gone to her mother's,

she'll come back.

I know.

I'm not always a great husband...

It's...

the build-up of stress...

No... It's...

Don't belittle yourself,

don't make yourself feel guilty...

She just needs some time.

She needs head space.

Understand?

There always comes a time when...

when this happens.

It's only natural.

Are you happy here?

It's okay.

Thank you.

Keep me posted, okay?

Thanks, Alain.

I understand.

I'm staying here.

You hear? I'm staying here.

Open up when you're ready.

Gisle go.

Gisle go!

Not understand? Gisle go!

Where?

Gisle, stop!

Gisle, you're making a big mistake.

Gisle Gaash...

Running away isn't a solution.

Turn around.

Turn around, Gisle Gaash.

Gisle, turn around.

You were right.

We're staying, honey.

- No, we're leaving.

- We're staying.

- We're leaving.

- We're staying!

- Leaving.

- We're staying, honey.

Okay, if you want, we're staying.

Are you sure?

Will you ever leave me alone?

- No.

- Oh God.
