On Air
This is the place.
Here are all the files.
You must note down
the listeners' problems.
OK.
Ask for their number,
age, pseudonym.
Generally they take on a pseudonym.
Then Mlina and I choose.
That way we don't have 4 people
talking about premature ejaculation.
They're also part of the crew.
The aging Romeo's Andr.
He's the producer.
Next to him's Bertrand,
the sound engineer.
Is Mlina here?
She comes a few minutes
before the show.
Before, she's in her dressing room.
Careful, naturally
don't take any photos.
She doesn't want
her picture spread around.
Yes, I know.
She won't allow it.
I'm anxious to see her.
She must be wonderful.
I'll tell you more later.
Good evening everyone.
This is Mlina
for "Frank Talk with You".
I'm all yours for two hours,
to listen to your secrets.
We're here to take your calls
at 3712 until 10 p.m.,
or on our Internet site
fty@radiofrance.com.
I'll take our first caller,
Lucie. Lucie from Lorient.
Good evening, Lucie.
How old are you?
I'm 13 years old.
I'm listening.
I'm calling because I...
I'm 5'8".
Goodness, 5'8" is really tall.
Yes.
Is that why you're calling?
Yes.
Being 5'8",
you must already look like a woman.
Because boys, even men,
stare at me all the time
and hit on me.
It's a bit early, isn't it?
Yeah.
How do you feel about that?
I'm not into it,
but my friend says I'm a fool,
at school.
And the boys in 9th grade,
when I say no,
either tell me I'm a child
or a coward.
They try to touch me.
You want to go out with them?
I don't know. No.
You don't know
if you want to or not?
You should follow your feelings.
- Understand?
- Yes.
You may look like a woman,
but you needn't behave like one.
Remember you're 13.
Yes.
If you don't want
to date 9th graders,
let them have 9th grade girls.
And you date boys your age.
What do you think?
Yes.
Thanks, Mlina.
Bye, Lucie.
Feel free to call again.
Mlina!
Here's this week's mail.
Still sure
you don't want it delivered?
Are you OK, big boy?
Did you have a nice evening?
You didn't like me? What did I say?
Yes, you did.
My treasure.
On Wednesday, Mrs. Gregorchk
will do the cleaning.
Be nice to her. She's great.
Shall we have a cigarette?
Snowball, are you coming?
Snowball, come.
It's so beautiful.
Come on. Let's go in.
Yes, hello?
Yes, it's me.
Are you sure this time?
Walter Agency
Investigation and Inquiries
Hello, Madam.
There's an envelope for me:
Claire Martin.
Here.
Thank you.
Subject:
Identity SearchFollowing your request, find below:
Jolle GOULAIN,
Montmirail, Marne. Divorced.
Age 66, residing 35 rue des Pinsons,
Claye-Souilly
Turn left.
You've reached your destination.
I see you're 60.
You've got a life ahead of you.
You can still
have a fulfilling sex life.
So I'll pack his bags.
You can meet a young lover.
It's not just movie stars
who meet guys 25 years younger.
Not too young.
Then someone your age: 60.
You can travel, have a ball...
screw all day.
Sure, why not?
Yeah, I'd like that.
No need to suffer.
That's a good idea. I'll do it.
Don't put up with that situation.
Emancipate yourself.
Thanks, Mlina.
Goodbye, Josiane.
Bye, thanks.
Now we're talking to Aline,
from Verdon.
Good evening, Aline.
Good evening, Mlina.
Well...
I'm calling because my ex
left me a year and a half ago.
Yes.
Sometimes we meet
for a cup of coffee.
I think we can
start something serious again.
I'd like to get back together
with him...
Go to bed with him,
but I dare not say it.
So after your love affair,
you developed a friendship?
Yes.
- You don't dare tell him?
- No.
That you'd maybe like to try again?
That's right.
Are you afraid of rejection?
I'm afraid he'll abandon me again,
like last time.
When you're abandoned once,
it's not easy
to face a second abandonment.
On the other hand,
isn't it better to dare to say it,
and in so doing,
maybe resolve your childhood wounds.
The abandonment
that hurts so deeply,
is often linked
to other abandonments.
And rewriting the story today,
being able to confront
the second abandonment,
is perhaps reclaiming
your role as a woman.
Perhaps you're strong enough today
to look at things differently.
I'm Claire Goulain.
Claire Goulain.
Jolle!
I left the key. I'm going.
OK, thanks.
Darn it!
Sh*t!
You here for clothes?
No.
Is it for charity work?
Yes, maybe.
Come this way.
Here.
Let's get down to work.
Stand there and sort:
Men, women, children.
Does Jolle work for you?
Jojo... you know her?
A bit, I guess.
She works with the stock.
Now she's retired,
she works three days a week.
We're all retired women.
Why set aside these garments?
They're not practical.
People have other concerns.
Why?
Why would people in need
not want to be sexy?
You're right. I'm an idiot.
You said it.
They put ideas in our head,
and we don't realize.
What line are you in?
Human resources.
Human resources!
You're classy.
I'm not a dyke or anything,
but you're a pretty gal.
Thanks.
Hi, Lucette.
Hello.
You OK?
I've an invitation for you.
Julie did them.
Saturday's my birthday.
- Thanks, I'll drop by.
- I'd like that.
- Are you new?
- Yes.
She started today.
- You can come too, if you want.
- No, I never go to parties.
Really?
Take it anyhow.
Only idiots don't change their mind.
Have a good day.
Bye, Lucette. See you Saturday.
That's Jolle's grandson.
Jolle Goulain.
Is that her grandson?
Well, not exactly, because
Jolle's son is with a woman
who already had 2 kids.
He's the elder.
So...
Saturday, October 27
Help us blow out Lucas's 27 candles
Hi there.
Lucas invited me.
- Put your things here.
- No. I'll keep them.
Really? Even your hat and gloves?
Yes.
I'll go and get him.
Lucas, you've got a guest.
Hi.
So you came after all.
Happy birthday.
You didn't have to bring a gift.
Lucette just left.
It's no big deal.
- Is this your house?
- My mom and stepfather's.
That's my mother.
Beside her is my stepfather.
Behind him is my grandmother,
actually my stepfather's mother,
Jolle.
She works for the charity too.
Jolle? Where?
Over there.
In the blue pullover.
- I'll introduce you.
- No!
I'd rather have a drink first.
What would you like?
Whatever.
Fashion... It's vulgar.
We don't give a damn.
I got you a tequila. Is that OK?
Perfect.
You're not too bored?
Not at all.
- What's your name?
- Claire.
- I'll introduce you.
- No, don't...
My best friend, Rmi.
We swam together.
I won't shake hands.
I'm catching bird flu.
I'm afraid you'll get it.
That's my...
Come on.
That's my mother... my mom.
Claire.
She's new at the charity.
Hello. Welcome.
Aren't you hot in that?
I'm getting a flu,
and maybe herpes.
Really?
Luck's not on your side.
No.
You're so pale.
Want something to eat?
No, nothing homemade.
Really?
If you want something, just ask.
Or help yourself. Feel free.
