'Only man kills out of hate, the animal kills out of love'

Ken Wilber

Have you fallen in love with me?

You are lying!

I've found out, that my urge,

my lust to kill is connected to certain star constellations.

It's like a vampire. The fuller

the moon, the bigger the lust.

Also with certain aspects with the planet Pluto,

the lust gets bigger and bigger.

The planet has been discovered,

just before the rise of fascism.

In astrology, the planet stands for the

deep hidden unsocial in the human being,

which can take absolute might over a

person and is able to dominate it.

...need to dig deeper.

Maybe I can find out a certain pattern

to learn to control the lust.

Hi, this is Nick.

I've just seen your announcement,

that you are looking for a roommate.

Is the room still available?

OK.Then I'll come over.

I'm Nick!

Phillip! Come in!

Thanks!

I'm gonna show you the room. Here it is!

What do you do for living?

I'm studying.

What are you studying?

International Economics.

But you didn't come here to study, did you?

Haven't they started with the terms already?

Yeah.

I'm looking for a holiday at for my father.

Ah. I see.

And you?What do you do for living?

I'm a photographer.

Ah, cool.

Have you been seeing other rooms?

Yes, but I haven't decided yet.

You know what...

for my sake, you can have the room.

Really?

We've also got a roof terrace!

- Wow.

- Not bad, eh?

I just found a roommate.

I don't know, I've had a good feeling about him.

Why don't you come around for dinner

tonight and have a look at him!

Do you think he's coming?

I can't wait to see him!

Wait, someone's coming.

Tell me something about your play.

Well, it's about a couple.

She's a gallery owner and he's a police officer and...

Hello, good evening!

This is Nick.

This is Lilli, a friend of mine.

This looks delicious.

Do you wanna eat something?

No, I didn't mean it like this. I've already eaten.

But there's enough. Come on, let us invite you!

Alright.

So, Phillip told me, you are looking

for a condominium here in Berlin?!

Well, not for me. I'm looking for one for my father.

He's looking for a at, which he can offer to sublet.

For a lot of money...

Yes, for a lot of money.

I don't think Berlin will remain as it is now.

The gentrification can come really quickly, I reckon.

It is here already.

You just need to go to Neuklln or Kreuzberg.

But the tourists are good for the city, tho.

You think so?

I think they bug.

Well, probably it's the first time that

berlin became an international city.

I mean, a few years ago, the

only dialects you heard,

were only German dialects.

For that matter, I prefer the "broken

English" you can hear everywhere now.

There is always advantages and disadvantages...

and what are you doing here in Berlin?

I'm an actress...

well, I'm learning how to be one.

That means I shouldn't believe, what you are saying...

so you are just pretending?

Or is this just a prejudice?

This is indeed a prejudice.

Good actors do not pretend.

What are they doing then?

They show how people really are,

behind all their facades and masks.

Yes, beautiful. Maybe the chin a bit down.. .

that's almost too much...that's it...

Thank you very much, that was great!

- Thank you, bye!

- Bye!

Hey, are you working?

Yes, hey!

May I have a look at some pictures?

Do you only take pictures of men?

Hmhm. Only men.

But I do have a girlfriend, if it calms you.

Is it Lilli?

No, it's not Lilli.

My girlfriend is in Nicaragua at the moment.

- Do you wanna see her?

- Sure.

Here, have a look.

Ok.That's enough.

May I take some pictures of you?

I don't know, I'm a bit shy when it comes to those things.

I don't have a problem with it.

But, maybe I do.

I do my work out in a gym, down the street.

Do you want to come with me?

Yeah sure.

Try hard!

This one I like the most.

That's a good choice!

Can you send the picture to this address?

Yes, of course.

Hey Phillip, it's Nick.

I'd like to surprise Lilli.

Can you tell me where her drama school is?

Oh come on, we have an appointment tonight anyway.

Excuse me, can you tell me where I can find Lilli?

She's dancing, upstairs.

What are you doing here?

I wanted to surprise you.

Why are you only taking pictures of men?

I know them better.

I know why they are looking the way they are looking.

And how to take a man's look.

When it comes to women, I only see what I want to see.

Do you think I'm attractive?

I can see that you are attractive,

but I don't feel it.

It's something more abstract.

I see it like a ower,

or a sunset.

Like, this way.

...beautiful as a ower...

Doesn't sound really straight to me, to be honest.

Def chest!

You think so?

Hmhm. I think so. It's nice.

You look good, too.

But too thin!

Yes, but...

buff.

Ok. He's leaving,

but why doesn't he say good bye to her?

Stefan, you tell her.

I don't know, either.

Ok, again:

These two have been separating themselves

from social standards and conventions,

they don't say "goodbye"

or "hello" or "thanks" to each other.

They just leave without saying anything.

These two are two human beings in delusion.

Ok.

Ok?!

I don't understand why he's leaving now,

after they just fell in love with each other.

And I think you do understand pretty well why.

You just don't want to.

No, I really don't understand.

He can't stand his dependence.

It's almost killing him.

Therefore, he's killing his love.

That's atrociously. He is a total psycho.

Just an ordinary man.

Well, I don't know. I wouldn't say it's ordinary, though!

Stefan, can you come here for a second, please!

And what am I supposed to feel now?

Your turn.

(Spanish) Do you know the way to the Brandenburger

Tor?

Sorry! Something important. I have to go!

Again?

It's important.

Call you tomorrow.

Nick!

Nick, is it you?

What if I'm not?

Don't drink too much!

Thanks.

Urgh, that one was bitter!

Man, that's a good reason to get jealous,

when I see you two "turtledoves"

Girls, I will go swimming.

Hey mate, just wait.

I think you need a beating.

...but from the beginning, I had the feeling,

that there was something dangerous in this love.

A fire,

a poison.

But the most dangerous thing about

it was, that it was too strong.

The feeling of getting too dependence on

each other, became stronger and stronger.

And then, they realized, that this

love got more and more dangerous,

even for their lives...

What happened?

There was a branch or something.

Come on up!

Do you feel dizzy?

Come with me!

Nick?!

Hey Phillip!

I've got something for you.

What is it?

- A gift.

- A gift?

What for?

Well, it's quite embarrassing,

but you saved my life.

Bollocks.

You did. Somehow.

I'll try it on.

Can you hold it?

Do you like it?

Yeah.Thank you.

What are you gonna do now?

Nothing's planned. And you?

Actually I don't like guys like you.

What kind of guy am I?

That kind of tourist, you don't like.

You are coming to Berlin, buy an apartment for your
