Le Havre

Enough!

Poor devil.

Luckily he had time to pay.

Better go, they'll blame me anyway.

The evening train?

Of course. Money moves in the shadows.

Enough. I called the police.

But we're colleagues!

Get going!

Terrorist!

Please come in.

I regret the trouble.

Fine cauliflowers.

I'd like this one.

Marcel?

You little gangster.

Oh Yvette, you were in.

Your bill's long

like the Congo River.

I'm your best customer.

When will you pay?

When I inherit. But don't tell my wife.

I'm the man of the house. Excuse me.

- Closed.

- I see your feet.

Impossible, I'm upstairs.

I'd buy something.

Good night!

Evening, Laika.

I'm home.

I notice that.

You've been busy today.

It's my nature.

I don't know how to be idle.

I'll prepare the dinner

but you've time for an aperitif.

Don't spend it all.

I'll take the dog.

She can carry the change home.

His name's Gerard Lenormand

not Lebreton.

Amusing. You talk about a name,

but it's a culture.

- Brittany is a culture.

- No.

What culture?

You think Mont Saint-Michel

is in Brittany.

It is in Brittany.

It's Le Couesnon.

It's a fact.

You know, back home in Alsace.

Enough about Alsace.

Fine ducks there.

What you talking about?

That's heresy!

I'll go earn my pension.

Really tough to wake up at 4 am.

A pleasant fellow.

How's Arletty?

Fine. She's preparing dinner

and drove me out.

You don't deserve such a good wife.

You're not worth her.

No one is, so I'll do.

She's protective

and couldn't watch me lie in the gutter,

a man in his prime.

Foreigners see bums

in a considerably

more romantic light

than we French.

You're not too polite.

Her first husband was violent

and an athlete.

Care for another?

There's still time for one.

You're listening to Reality Radio:

Difficult Choices.

We talk about dishwashers.

Our guest is Annette Verdoux

from Electroflash.

Good evening.

This affects five million consumers.

How long does a dishwasher last?

Recent studies show that

their lives are being

deliberately shortened...

Won't you eat?

I visited Florence today.

She had a pot of cassoulet.

- What is it?

- More living dead.

The container was shipped

three weeks ago

from Libreville in Gabon

to London.

Was supposed to take five days.

Been here two days.

- A computer error.

- Probably in Paris.

Inspector Monet, Le Havre.

You heard voices inside?

More like a child crying.

Baltic Queen.

Wasn't she scrapped?

This is number two.

Former Honolulu Star.

What d'you think?

If they've had water and oxygen,

with luck...

Is that necessary?

Ministry of Interior's orders.

The Red Cross.

How are you, Madam?

And the child?

Ti red.

Are you mad? A child.

"Missing line"

ONE OF THE CONTAINER REFUGEES

ON THE RUN:

ARMED AND DANGEROUS? CONNECTIONS TO AL-QAEDA?

Salut, Marcel, a va?

- Caught any?

- No. Dry as the Gobi.

Eskimos have robbed everything.

Greedy devils.

See you later.

Is this London?

You want there? The other side.

This is Le Havre, in Normandy.

Are you hungry?

Get up here.

Could be a pensioner's Metro card.

No Metro in Le Havre. Papers.

A black boy

has been seen here.

He needs care.

So you always say.

I've seen no one.

Beat it.

Don't forget your lunch.

Nothing here.

This morning, ruthlessly

and Without Warning

Le Jungle was destroyed.

Migrants regrouped behind banderols.

No Border activists and the police

clashed violently.

Two groups were formed:

underage youths, and adults.

No solution is proposed.

Just like with the earlier camp,

nothing but the press releases

were prepared.

Migrants, activists and

the journalists Waited.

This morning

there were only 300 refugees

those with no other place to go.

A few weeks ago there were almost 1,000.

Refugees are no more in Calais,

but the problem is not solved.

Many of those arrested

will soon be released.

They look for new sites, just like in Sangatte.

Almost ten years to the day.

Minister for Immigration came to Calais

to witness the camp's demolition.

The operation was not aimed

against the refugees.

A YOUNG BOY ON THE RUN

What do you think?

Hard to say, for I don't exist.

Who's he?

That's you, Chang.

I'm not Chang, not from China

but from Vietnam.

Came here 12 years ago atop a train.

Paid eight years for an identity

in the databases.

I can enjoy social security

and vote, if I want to.

I support my family,

I'm a happy man.

But I'm not him.

You can call me Chang, I'm used to it.

Mediterranean has more

birth certificates than fish.

It's harder to deport a nameless person.

The evening train comes soon.

- Evening, Marcel.

- Jeanne.

A sandwich and water.

Water?

It's not for me.

I understand.

What is it? Wait.

Marcel.

Turn off the stove.

What's wrong?

You weren't in the bar.

No one knew where you were.

I'll get an ambulance.

Don't be long.

Yvette!

What is it?

May I use the phone?

Arletty must go to the hospital.

I'll take you.

I'll just get my coat.

The husband of Arletty Marx?

Yes.

She sleeps, we gave her pain-killers.

You can go home.

Return when we get the results.

I'd like to wait.

That'd be no use.

You'd just be in the way.

Take my card.

Thank you.

Good morning, Yvette.

How's Arletty? What did they say?

She sleeps.

I go back in the afternoon.

Shall I come?

I'll be alright.

Perhaps they'll let her come home.

Perhaps.

Laika?

Came to pay your debt?

You have a name?

Speak.

Idrissa.

Quo vadis, Idrissa?

What?

- Where are you going?

- London.

What's there?

You know the way?

We'll talk later.

I must go, but I'll be back.

You can sleep on the couch.

Don't go out, don't open the door.

Understand?

Yes, Sir.

So there's no hope?

Miracles do happen.

Not in my neighbourhood.

Please don't tell the truth

to my husband.

Embellish it.

He's just a big child.

It's against the rules.

I beg you.

Tell him...

later.

The rules don't say when you must tell.

Alright.

I'll talk like a politician.

We'll begin the treatments next week.

Be brave.

I was too categorical.

There's always hope.

Doctor.

Come to see me later.

Yes, Dr Becker.

I didn't bring any food.

- How are you?

- Much better.

I almost got worried.

I'm away for a moment

and you start spending.

I got them cheap, they were on sale.

What am I saying?

I bought the most expensive ones.

Will you come home soon?

I'll take care of you.

I must stay, perhaps a long time.

The doctor will explain.

Let's talk about other things.

Thank God it's benign.

No danger then.

That's what the doctor said.

Evidently extremely benign.

Still, they won't let her home.

They want to be certain.

Care for another?

No, thanks.

On the house.

In that case, gladly.

I'll visit her tomorrow.

You remember the ward?

Thirteen, same as the room.

I'll go in the morning, too.

Sant!

Thank you.

Are you mad? You don't listen at all.

No wonder they put you on the ship.

Sorry.

If caught, you won't get to London

but back where you left from.

You want that?

No.

I need time to help you.
