Staub auf unseren Herzen Page #2

- We're just about ready to eat.

- Do you like it?

- It's great.

I have some butter if you like.

What's wrong?

- It's so quiet here.

- Yes.

Talk to me a bit.

I've just quit the off-theatre.

Does that mean

you've joined an on-theatre?

No, but at any rate,

that film is coming up.

Which film?

The one I went to the audition for.

- The phone might ring any moment...

- Hollywood could be calling.

Wolfgang called me.

He wants to meet me.

Do you know why?

- I actually wanted to tell you...

- What?

- He is... He's in the flat.

- Which flat?

- The new one.

- The one downstairs?

Have you lost your mind?

Well, I...

He's just a few steps away

and I'm not even aware of it?

You didn't even tell me?

Do you know what that does to me?

I never want to see that man again.

- You could've at least told me.

- I wanted to, but somehow...

So why didn't you?

Because I'm right in the middle

of you two.

He didn't have a flat,

or a place to stay...

That's his problem.

He should go to a hotel.

I don't want him there!

I think you should leave now.

Right.

- Is everything okay?

- Don't touch me.

Chris? Chris!

Chris!

Hey!

Chris!

THANKS:

Great.

Kathi, it's Mum.

We need to make progress in the flat,

so that you can finally move in.

You're always so hard to reach, and...

I'd simplylike to make some progress.

Call me as soon as possible.

I have some time next week. Bye.

Lenni! Wait a minute. Hold up!

Let me take your rucksack.

Lenni, hurry up!

Lenni!

Chase the ball!

- Um, hello.

- Hello.

I wanted to talk to you,

as this whole time...

I've been a bit...

curious, I guess you could say,

as to who you are.

Is your son here?

- Well, a kind of nephew...

- Kind of... What does that mean?

That's Lenni, my son. The little one.

- Yes, he's still very small.

- Small but fast.

- What's your name?

- Kathi.

Are you a coach too?

I'm actually here because of my nephew

and because...

of this woman in a green dress

who always sits on the guard rail.

Who I always enjoy seeing.

Actually I do puppet theatre.

I'm a puppeteer.

- You run a puppet theatre, or what?

- Well, we're a group.

- For kids or adults?

- Both.

Oh I see...

Do you do marionettes?

Well... not really.

They're more like foam figures.

They're made by hand.

So you go out shopping

for foam materials...

And then you make them yourself?

I actually find the foam and

most of the materials on the street.

- You look for things?

- Yes, in a way.

- Do you think puppeteering sucks?

- No, I actually think it's nice.

- Really?

- But I don't know anything about it.

Oh, that doesn't matter.

- What's your name anyway?

- Fabian.

So...

- Look!

- Beautiful.

Great.

Lenni, look!

Where's the fish's fin?

At the top. Oh no.

We could make another shark.

- Or doesn't that suit a kid's room?

- Do you want a shark, Lenni?

Would you like that in your room?

The boy isn't listening to you,

haven't you noticed?

- He's busy at the moment.

- Probably.

Howdo you like my heart?

Well, it looks a bit like a heart.

- How do you like it, Lenni?

- Look, I made a heart. Do you like it?

Good.

Look, and then we'll add some petals.

Maybe we should turn it into a bird?

That one already looks like a bird.

Now let us paint the flowers, please.

Let us keep painting.

- No, I want...

- Let us paint what we want!

See, I made a flower like this.

This one

will get little flowercups.

No, we want to paint this wall white.

But I think the colour is pretty.

I'd like to start here now.

Wait, just look.

This looks great with the pink...

Mum? I'm not sure...

Oh, man.

I never knew anything about...

Dad having an affair.

He told you?

Yes.

Is everything okay?

Come, sit down here.

I speculated a lot...

about what was going on

in that time period.

Naturally, I...

noticed that something was wrong.

But why wouldn't you tell me

that he was seeing another woman?

You wouldn't understand, as you've

never experienced something like that.

But is it true?

That she was your best friend?

And that he went back and forth...

- I'd like to continue painting.

- I want to talk about it.

Well, I don't.

Will you help me paint?

In the future... I mean,

when we live here together, we'll...

have to talk about these things.

If you don't move right now,

I'm going to paint you white.

- Here.

- Right, that's your halo.

Could you stop for a minute?

Thank you...

Thanks for painting.

Excuse me,

could we have a Turkish pizza?

- ATurkish pizza, please.

- One pizza.

I want to marry you.

Really? But that's not possible.

But you won't find anyone else!

But why won't I find anyone?

Why not?

You won't find anyone.

People don't know you, that's why

you won't be able to find anyone.

And that's why I should marry you,

because you know me?

But we can't get married.

Excuse me...

Lenni? Lenni?

Lenni?

Lenni!

Lenni!

Did you see a little boy?

Excuse me...

Excuse me...

Sh*t!

Lenni!

Lenni!

Is it all out?

Sure it's all out?

Okay?

Fold it over

so that her feet are higher.

That's right, thanks.

They're still searching.

Hello, Chris.

Hello.

I know I'm bursting in but...

what happened to Lenni?

Come in.

I screwed up everything.

Everything will be okay.

Everything will be okay.

It's not time to think about that.

He'll turn up.

I promise you.

I think you should go see Gabriel.

He's in his room.

This is driving me crazy too.

- Alright, mate?

- Hello.

Everything good otherwise?

- You already asked me that.

- I know, but...

Are the drawings yours?

Yeah, but I was still small.

Just a little kid.

The top one I understand.

But what's the bottom one?

I don't know.

- You've forgotten?

- Yes.

You've gotten pretty big.

Hello? Mum!

Bartsch.

I've got the address. Yes, I will come

pick him up now, thank you.

He was at the ice cream parlour!

Nothing's happened to him.

- We have to go.

- No, no.

I'll go get him alone.

You stay here.

- Okay?

- Yes.

Stand in the middle of the rain

Believe in the blessing of its drops

Spin yourself in its whirring

And try to be good

But...

- We have to pull the plug.

- Then pull it out.

I can't, my hands will get all sudsy.

Stand in the middle of the wind

Believe in it and be a child

Let the storm enter you

And try to be good

Stand in the middle of the fire

Believe in its monstrosity

In the red wine of your heart

And try to be good

- Hello.

- Hello.

- How are you? Nice to see you.

- I feel the same.

- Do you have a lighter?

- No.

Then I'll just drink some of yours.

Your performance

at the audition was incredible.

We were all truly impressed,

and...

We've chosen someone else.

But I wanted to tell you personally,

because...

The main role on a thirty day shoot...

I was a bit scared that it would...

be too much for you.

I know how shitty this is, I've also

gotten rejections. I'm really sorry.

Want a sip?

Sorry.

- Oh, sh*t. To top it all.

- Don't worry about it.
