Made in Europe Page #7

...and she's with someone else.

What if she divorces you?!

Everything was finished then.

She divorced you when you hit her!

- Are you stupid or what?

- It's not stupidity.

Then what!

I think I got scared.

Anyway, what should I say now?

Should I say don't do it again? But...

...look I'm just curious about it.

I've never seen such things in my life...

I mean in my family those things

don't happenHow do you beat a...

...woman? You hit herjust once or

you beat her like really beating?

- I beat her, as if I was beating a man.

- How can you say that so easily?

She's a woman. She's weaker than you.

And then you go around saying...

...you're a leftist.

Shame on you. Whatever...

Inge was her name...

- Where are you from?

- Romania.

- Sister, don't cry. Are you hungry?

- No. One more glass of water please.

Are you from Kostanza?

Yes.

- When did you come to Germany?

- It has been a month.

I'm looking for a job.

- What do you do?

- Sorry?

- I mean what is your line of work?

- Dad, are you going to save them...

...all by yourself? Yilmaz abi told us

not to let in her type either.

Recep, you keep doing yourjob.

Come here!

I won't slice any more tomatoes,

it's enough I guess.

I don't know, you know better.

We are about to close.

- Who is Hasan talking to?

- A girl from Romania.

Is she looking for a job?

Is she looking for a job? I asked.

- I'm asking you something.

Answer properly. - I guess so!

Why doesn't he send her away then?

There isn't a place to fill here?

How the hell do I know?!

A friend told me to come here,

that there was a job here. She works at...

...night. They wanted me to work there,

too. I don't want a job like that.

But we can't give you a job here.

There's nothing.

I don't want a job around here, it should

be further out. They would find me here.

Dad, send her next door.

Maybe they'll find her a job.

Recep, you see to your work.

Sister, we don't have any work here.

- Are you the boss?

- No.

- Isn't he here?

- He's not.

- Isn't he going to come?

- Yes, but late.

I have to work.

Sister, you'd better go back to Romania.

- I can't. I don't have any money.

- Dad, don't give her any money.

- Is she still there?

- Uh huh.

- What's she doing?

- Come and look yourself.

- Why would I look, I don't care!

- Why do you ask then? My God!

- What are you doing tonight?

- Armand's taking me out, to a disco.

Nice! You're living the German life.

Is he the new one?

- Yes.

- Is he handsome?

You'll see when he comes.

- What's your father talking about with

her? - Nothing. He's crazy, you know!

- Do you want to come with us tonight?

- No, I'm tired. Next week, ok?

I thought you were young.

It was easier before,

but now, it's so difficult.

Because the country's full now.

But the statement I gave sounded good,

you know. I also had a deal with the...

translator. We wrote a nice little letter.

I mean we didn'tjust say the usual...

...that I was born in the East,

there was repression, I was tortured...

We also have my sister in an organization.

We got her to send papers, too.

- What did she send?

- Some stuff that makes me...

a member of a leftist organization.

We arranged some stuff.

Man, because of people like you, some

people who really need asylum can't get it

What could I do, Cem? They don't give

you a job if you don't have documents.

- Do you want me to die of hunger?

- What do you mean you can't find...

...a job? Hardly anyone one

I've met has papers.

Yeah, I can find work that's unsteady.

You know how? The bosses don't care,

you work 'til you're about to get caught.

The boss calculates the social security...

...cost. If it's higher than the penalty,

they give you a job...

You work weekends or when there

is a lot of work during festivals.

- So you find work.

- The lastjob was good actually...

...where Hasan works.

He seems like a decent guy.

I mean...

He's a little kiss ass.

The only one I trust is Aylin.

- Damn, she's beautiful.

- Yeah. She's the only one I trust there...

That's why I gave the

restaurant's address in court.

- Don't they deliver your mail here?

- Here they would steal it. And...

...if that happened, Germany

would never give me papers again.

- Aylin does the paperwork there too? - She

does a lot there. I swear. She's also...

teaching Recep German. She wanted him to go

to school but the kid insisted on working.

He left in the first year of high school.

His grades weren't that good either

In my opinion he did the right thing.

Now at least he has work.

Maybe you're right.

Want to do another line?

Don't be shy! Ask.

You're always buying, that's why...

Uncle Bosch pays good salary.

I studied like a dog to be an engineer...

When will I enjoy it if not now?

Don't you have any drug friends

around here?

Of course I do...

Albaricoque in Spanish.

I won't be coming soon.

I'm okay here.

Let me talk to dad he's not there?

No one's home? I told you, I'm okay.

I have a job, no need to worry.

I have a place to sleep... tell them to

wait one more year, I'm going to bring...

...them here. Tell my brothers not to mess

around in the protests. It's dangerous now

We were there and

none of us had papers.

If we'd had papers

we would've done something but...

- Didn't you call an ambulance right away?

- We did, but the police came first.

I told you, you needed to say that

a friend fell down and fainted.

How could I know the police would

respond to a work accident?

The police get involved in everything

here. So many times we told him to...

...be careful, watch his step

up there, don't talk too much.

- Which floor did he fall from?

- We were building the fourth floor.

So he must have died, then.

He couldn't breathe, that's for sure.

What did the police say?

We left him. We had to run

when we saw the police.

We don't have papers.

They would've caught us too.

F*** this country.

- Let's go out and do something.

- Let's go where Armando works...

- It's clean. There's no other place,

anyway. -Then let's do another line, Ahmet.

Have at it, Cem. They don't let Arabs

in there. So there's never any fighting.

To the window.

Just to-go orders.

Chief, it's forbidden to sell from there.

You know how many times we've had trouble.

- Why's your nose in everything? So what?

- We were fined twice...

You don't take the police

seriously here.

Aylin's right, dad. We don't have a

permit. It's not only illegal to sell from

...the window but

you can't even open it.

You go on and turn off

the air conditioning.

- No, Recep, go close the windows.

- He doesn't get it, Aylin, what can I do?

All he's thinking about is helping

Yilmaz earn twenty more euros.

Dog seed, go turn the air conditioning

off. And then come back here...

...I don't know how many

they will order.

Why do you shout at the kid?

What he's saying is true.

Why do you get involved in everything?

Is anything harming you here?
