even in the dark.

She is not studying at all, she is all

the time training at the gym.

She wants to become next Nadia Comaneci.

Son of a b*tch! Do I always have

to listen to him? Turn it off!

How can every anyone be afraid of an ass like him?

It's the a**holes you have to be afraid of.

He changed the menus in the restaurants the street names!

For them it's enough to fart and they

think their ass in supporting them.

Yeah, the propaganda people, first

come propaganda and then history.

No, it's one thing to... convince

a peasant that his Turkish neighbor

wants to cut his throat,

but there aren't any Turks here or Cetnics, or Ustascia.

Yeah that's what I'm talking about,

because here we are all Sarajevans!

- Poets, artists, lawyers.

- Wars start in the villages.

Wars start in the soccer stadiums,

while you guys haul yourselves up

in artist's colonies and write poetry.

- But you're not scared?

- We are together.

That's what matters.

Ah, ja.

What is the smell like?

Milk.

Or the forest.

They are both biologists, he is

professor, she was his assistant.

They rent off a room and he's a jew, she's a muslim

but don't worry you'll be comfortable.

Welcome. Please take off your shoes.

Good morning.

Do you have international newspapers?

Newspaper? Yes!

Thank you. "Le Monde".

How are you, Professor?

And when are you two going to have a baby

Come on, the yankee can't?

If you need a little help, c'mon, here I am.

I'm sterile, Gojko.

Sterile.

Beautiful woman...

We are a luckless generation.

I wanted a child with these feet.

I wanted to see him walking in front of us.

I lost.

- Why don't you come too?

- Do you like her?

- No.

I like Italian girls!

- Let's go, Pietro.

- Come on.

- Go, go.

Leave her alone, we will have fun,

the three of us. Let's go.

Be careful on the slides!

Be careful!

MW!

You be careful too.

- Who's that girl?

- Kurt Kobain.

- Kurt Kobain?

And who the heck is that?

- Do you like Nirvana?

I listen to them in the dark every night.

They blow me away.

- Where exactly do they blow you to?

- Somewhere you'll never go.

- Idiot!

- F*** you!

Nirvana is just a bunch of f***ing nihilist millionaires.

- Screw you!

- Shut up!

So what are your intentions, Aska?

To play music.

One of the guys in Nirvana is Croatian.

If he made it, so can I.

I want to go to London.

That's why I need the money.

Gojko told me

you are looking for a roda, a stork.

I want to be paid in deutsche marks.

- Will you do it only for money?

- What do you want me to say?

That I'm doing it for love?

- Are you muslim?

- Sometimes I read the Koran.

And what does the Koran say? You can

rent your body to another woman?

The Koran says to help other people

I'm happy to help a woman who's defective.

We all have to give something back.

If you think about it, even the Virgin

Mary lent her womb to God the Father.

Aska doesn't exactly strike my as the Virgin Mary.

Every once in a while God points

his finger at someone and says

"You, come with me."

You can't say no to God.

He plants himself inside of us, opens our soul.

Kurt Kobain does drugs so he can deal with God.

How can I be sure you, you won't decide to keep the baby?

Easy. Families make me sick.

Downhill"

My test results.

No, I don't have AIDS.

Hi.

My boyfriend and I can't have intercourse,

I have these bad muscle spasms so,

it's basically impossible, you know.

- Muscle spasms.

- Artificial insemination.

Yeah, that. Whatever you call it.

We have to do some tests first

in order to monitor your ovulation

and then your partner will have to...

Doctor...

I'm sorry...

We have to go.

Everybody is running away!

What's up? Where are you going?

Where the f*** are you going?

Cowards, traitors, motherfuckers!

Your mother is a b*tch!

Get out, son of a b*tch!

What's happening, guys?

Where is everybody going?

F*** you, a**holes!

Go, run away!

Motherfuckers, get out of town!

How about a hot chocolate at my place?

LISP-

Thank you, grandmother.

If you want we can do it naturally, you know?

I don't have problems with sex.

You can watch if you want.

Like in a laboratory

Zic, zic, zic, zik...

Like rabbits!

Hey what's so f***ing funny you two?

What the f***.

No!

I don't think so.

She's not going to come.

Good morning.

I don't know if you remember, I was here with my husband,

before the war,

he was a photographer.

A lot of photographers came here!

May I take a look around?

Of course. Please.

Who are you? Their maid of honor?

Hi!

Sorry I'm late.

It's a zoo off there

with the demonstrations and all.

Let's hope I still have a few eggs left.

Are you staying?

No.

Bye.

So are they f***ing those two?

"And the life laughs at us like a toothless old whore

while we f*** her with our eyes closed,

dreaming of the ass of lilly."

Do I stink?

No.

You smell good.

Let's go make love once before we die.

We're not going to die, Gojko.

Yes... Yeah, I was at the Water Park.

I'll pass you mom.

No, she's asleep, yes, she's asleep...

Talk to you tomorrow, bye Dad.

What's this morgue?

What's this morgue, I said!

What did you do?

I walked a lot, I'm tired.

Leave me alone.

You were alone all day!

All day!

My friends are all at the beach,

in Sardinia swimming in the sea.

Look where I am!

In this shithole!

Where you brought me, in this sh*t city!

That's where I am, look at this great city of yours!

Look where I am!

Give me the lotion, I'm all sunburned.

Look for it yourself.

What did you do to your feet?

They're filthy!

- You hurt me, Pietro.

- Why don't you want to talk to dad?

- Why don't you want to talk to dad?

- Leave me alone.

Yeah, who do you think you are?

You never go to the Officers' Club,

you don't sit with the other Carabinieri wives.

Sure, laugh!

You've always been ashamed of dad!

- What are you saying?

- You didn't come here for me.

You come here for this f***ing Diego!

Not for me!

For this f***ing Diego!

Why don't you try calling him dad, just once?

Climb down, Gemma!

Climb down, because you're a nobody!

Pietro!

The chickens are all dead.

What?

Aska?

Nothing happened, no, I'm sorry.

We have to get off of here.

Here they are, my stars!

Darling, hi.

They're just back from Sarajevo,

Diego took some incredible shots.

Listen, is what I read true that the paring knives

for pitting olives are used to gouge people's eyes out?

"Ladies and gentlemen,

enjoy Sarajevo!"

Till!!!"-

Hi, my love.

How are you? Tired?

How did it go? How was it?

Who the f*** do you think was there?

Do you know what I did today?

I spent the entire day photographing

a can of tuna.

And once it was open and once it was close, an?

Again and again.

They even had a make-up artist for it,

for the f***in tuna!

She kept on moving it back

and forth between dressing rooms,

like it was a f***ing model.

The world is going to hell baby.

And we're going down with it.

I'm so sorry. Excuse me.

- Grandpa, going to war?
