WE ARE ALL MURDERERS

- It's mine!

- Are you kidding?

What are you doing?

- Nothing.

- I saw you hiding something.

I haven't got anything.

Let's have a look.

That's mine, give it back!

Go on, get outside.

Hey, Michel, have a good night?

- He took my stuff!

- He can have what you have.

- You've got something to eat?

- What I can find in this war.

- I'm hungry.

- Haven't you had something to eat?

- Just some bread.

- I don't have enough, so don't bother me.

- Give it back!

- You can't use so many butts.

- You've got to give it back to me.

- You think that's likely?

Just because he really wants it.

So you shouldn't hide things.

You have things that he's found,

you should plan for yourselves.

Rene!

- Rene, Rene!

- Yell all you like.

Give me back my things.

Keep yelling and I'll give you a rock.

Again? If you come back

again, I'll thrash you!

Looking through my belongings again!

There's no end to this worry.

Don't come back here

or I'll smack you one!

I really can't stand

what these people do here.

Don't follow me in here!

I can't do much with this, can I?

You'll pardon me for saying so,

but I don't think so, really.

It's a pair of boots.

I know, but look at the end here.

Can't I get more for it?

Take it back.

- Yes sir?

- How's the drink?

- Fine.

- This enough?

Did you do the dishes first?

There's seeds in here.

You don't know what

you're talking about.

Want to leave them here?

Good afternoon, and here is the news.

Today the death toll stands

at a maximum of 50 people.

With more in the south due to

increased activity from both sides.

Soldiers on both sides have

been at short-term adjustments.

It is believed tomorrow will

see even fiercer fighting.

Are you still there?

Ah, it's all hell, listening

to this news every day.

- Want a drink?

- No.

Want one?

I don't.

- You could change your mind.

- I'll let you know.

Is this the first time

you've been in this place?

There's other areas I like.

- Best I can do.

- That's enough.

Thanks.

Give me a refill.

Ah, Michel, come here.

You want to follow me in

here, then you have a drink.

- I'm thirsty.

- I want you to drink this.

Give the rest to him, in a glass.

The best bread for your body.

Cheers.

- How do you find it? Good, eh?

- It's OK.

Could be bad for the kid's growth.

Want something?

Yes, you've been around here recently.

That's the case, all right.

Come on, some people have

been waiting a while for you.

The mandate.

They're at Charles' home.

They'll be resting there a bit.

Do you think it possible, based on

your circumstances, if you can go?

You think about it.

I've already thought about it.

- Charles informed me.

- I still have to consider.

Yes, but there are other

people to think about.

If he closed the house, there's

no work, what would you do?

Have you thought about it this way?

But I have never killed

any person outright.

I've already thought about it.

Charles did not say what you

would be doing, don't worry.

Someone will give you training.

And the price will be

much higher than before.

But that's based on experience.

Why do you hesitate?

- How much?

- You'd be paid in cash.

That's different.

Is the client very strong?

Medium?

It makes no difference because

he won't get out of the house.

On the other hand it might,

so you pay me directly.

This is certainly nothing

you need to worry about.

Well.

Is there someone who'll

take me to Charles...

or that he'll come to

me, or meet in some location?

One beer!

I can't see you return.

With me you don't need to

worry about this problem.

Some beer!

No one, right?

- You should go immediately,

- Have you got a setup for the house?

- Haven't you been in the right room?

- Not now, I simply can't sleep.

But now it may be too late.

I haven't gone to that floor.

Here, you take it.

Beer and soldiers are comparable,

some are better than others.

If you've already started saying

that then you're drinking too much.

- Your beer.

- Thank you.

- You've got the money?

- You're going to use this bag?

I've got someone else

with me, and a cart.

- He's very sharp.

- I can't see that.

Now you can pay me, right?

It's all OK.

- Then I'll go on the road.

- Don't let those soldiers find out.

- Take the key.

- Can you cut through the road?

- All right.

- Good.

You could turn up the music

while I go to where he's staying.

I know, but it's a bit complicated.

You go to the back, where

that kid is on the street.

Fighting on the front-line has seen the emergence of

new problems, most troops are suffering resistance...

- Enough joking around!

- There's complications.

Can you stop the noise?

- Who's that?

- Your brother.

Everyone's sleeping.

Whisper! The walls have ears.

Never mind.

I didn't think you

were going to come here.

I'm going to finish this up.

It would be nice if you could give me some

money, I'd also like to leave with you.

Do you think I'm crazy?

- No towels?

- There's no need.

You got anything? Show me.

Don't kid around, we'll

see who's stronger.

This watch is for me.

That's a present to me.

This is just change, this is the tip.

You're not human.

Go to bed, you have to dry up.

That's all.

China's new submarines have

been successfully tested.

Bound for the sea and now on their way.

If our country would just

make this kind of thing.

Get on the road, if everything

goes well, that money is all mine.

20 minutes.

- You afraid?

- A little.

I'll stay here waiting, while

you go ahead and be a lookout.

If it's clear, whistle.

- What are you doing here?

- Just a small break.

- Five minutes it'll be closed here.

- I'll go now.

Ah, air strikes again.

- Get to the air-raid shelter.

- But I have to go home.

There's aircraft up

there and we'll be killed.

We'll go take cover.

Go.

Get away from the aircraft quickly,

sir, there are air raid shelters here.

Put it over here.

Careful of the walls, you see the wall

was blown back, the owner was furious.

Is it so serious?

It seems much better, I don't know the

quality of the houses here, however.

- Can I play it?

- It doesn't go.

- My children are still at home, and I'm away.

- It's too late now.

- I already told you, don't touch.

- Stupid, can't you be quiet?

Hurry up, run, I have

to find a place to hide.

Go, go down here.

- You don't want to go with them?

- I want to wait it out.

My wife is always with

the dog at this time.

Because this time there

are many street dogs.

And my dog can predict

the time of the bombing.

Almost over, then we'll go.

What's leaking out here?

Oil, it's broken.

It's blood, what's in there?

You don't have any right.

There's nothing, I tell you.

Oh, excuse me. Maybe

you've killed somone?

A uniform?

It's only a traitor.

- You didn't find anyone.

- Didn't I?

I saw too, but together

we don't have to.

You want to drag me right into this?

You only get pulled in

to what is related to you.

If you go out, you'll be like him.
