It was in France.
From 2008 to 2009.
I do not remember anymore who was president.
I was... ten years old.
Exactly ten in 2009.
At that time... How should I describe it?
We sat in large buildings, classed by age.
5-6 year olds, 8-9 year olds, in each of the classes.
In groups of about 30 children. It is difficult to explain today.
We were together the whole day for lessons. There was a teacher.
An adult who repeated the same thing again and again, but did not have time
to teach us individually, or to help anyone who has not taken it in.
We were a gang, a real gang. Blaise and his sister Alice.
Youssef, of course, Claudio, Ali and I. We did everything possible together.
Fractions are parts of two whole numbers
and which one can express in a new way,
using the words numerator and denominator.
For example, between 0 and 1...
This bar represents the number 1.
The number of colored parts is two.
The total number of equal parts is five
and this fraction is read as two fifths.
The number on the top is called the numerator...
I was good at math. It came naturally to me.
"A genius" said the others' parents.
So we said we went to my home to do homework. A huge lie.
- What do you have for homework? - Just divisions.
- Please mom, Milana must explain. - You asked me to come and get you
- to see Yohinda's kitten. - Yes, but the math is important.
- Who cares about a kitten! - Who should learn divisions? You?
No, I will learn subtractions.
- We know! "Do not come home too late!" - Not too late, I said!
HANDS UP
Hang on...
Ignition!
- Where are the other lights? - In the can.
- It goes out before the end. - I would prefer a long one.
- Light another, it has burned down. - I need a light.
- We owe 25 euros for copies. - They want 5 per envelope.
- 10 per game! Extortionist brother! - We can get more for "Halo 3".
- Everyone in my class wants it. - Or we sell two for one.
Nutcase! One gives us hardly anything and may be another one will get us more.
- Why not rent games? - Purchase the 20 DVDs, they get one free.
A gift with each. A little surprise.
- When should we do the poster? - We can start tomorrow.
- What should we call it? - Illegal trading...
- Illegal trading DVDs. - Then no one will buy them.
Pirated DVDs, 10 euros. Labels and cover, 5 euros.
Plus 20 centimes for the box. Multiply by 10. 152 euros!
- But we have no time right now. - We must visit Ed.
- Can it wait until Monday? - No. Who'll do it?
- I! - No, too dangerous.
- But I'm small. Easier then. - Select packs in color, not white.
It is Blaise's and Claudio's turn to go to Ed.
- Okay, but then you do our homework. - Oh yeah.
- How many is that? - 40 something, not more than 45.
Hurry up.
You get my chocolate milk if the cops take us. Bye for now!
What are you doing? I'm waiting for answers.
"History, page 25. Analysis of the documents."
"What kind of document is it?" The answer is: "A caricature."
- With two "t"'s. - One "t", you mean.
- I'll write two "t"s in your booklet. - If you do that, I jacket up.
You know what? I won't write in your booklet.
- I won't write in yours. - You do it for the others but not for me!
You're here. Take a pen and write your signature.
- Youssef is also here. - Yes, but he gives me answers.
Fuck!
Licorice...
- Want a chocolat? - No.
- An apple pastry? - Not that either.
- Shall I carry your bag? - No.
- Hello. - Hello.
- I live here. - Well. I'll see you tomorrow.
- Do not want to come up? - With you?
- Yes, with me. - Okay.
If someone asks, you lent me the mobile. My cousin will think I stole it.
All right.
- Hello. - Hello.
- Want to sit down? - No.
You want something to drink?
Not even a cookie?
- Stolen phone? - No, my old one.
Why was she using it? Take it back. We do not need it.
Goodbye.
- Here you go, young man. - Thank you. Goodbye.
Hi, Mom.
Yes, I'm in the flower shop. I'll be home in ten minutes.
I promise.
So long. Hugs!
- Mom! - Yes!
What is it?
Here...
Me?
It's so kind of you.
It's nice.
Youssef, stop the music downloads.
Youssef, it is dangerous. Come on down.
Leave me in peace! Do not touch me. Why does your child?
- Youssef and Semba? - The whole family.
- For DVDs? - I saw them arrested.
We need to stop selling video games.
Calm down!
Hey. Yes...
He's a little bit excited. Do not worry, I'm careful.
Yes, she is with me. Remember that Alice and I have drama tonight.
- No way! - Yes, here she comes. Do not worry.
Hey, Mom. No, do not worry. Yes, tonight I repeat.
So do I.
- Two mobiles... For so many! - No, take one of Malek's stock.
- You are crazy. He will kill me! - Tell them it was Youssef.
Youssefs family was deported for they lacked identity documents. As do I.
Are you French?
My little sister was born here, but neither I, father or mother.
It's not possible!
From now on, you are my sister. You are called Milana Chartier.
You live at 189, rue Ordener, Paris. Have you got it all?
- She could be mine. - You do not have a sister!
She could be my sister's sister. Forget it, you get zero.
Take the mobile, learn the number. We'll stop selling video games. Ali, call me.
- You're sitting here. Waste of calls! - Just call.
- Oh, what horrible ringtone! - Ultrasound. Only children can hear it.
- Install it on your phones. - What is it good for?
You can call in class or on the farm without some adult hearing it.
Fuck! Mom and our drama lesson! Blow out the candles!
"It was towards the end of september."
"We went out of the houses, all with a darkened lantern in his hand."
- What is she doing? - I'll see.
No, we'll continue.
"The police had them in handcuffs."
"But we did not play for it was all true."
"Just being a boy with a blind lantern hidden under his coat..."
"And when two donkeys met each other, you could hear a restless..."
- "Do you have a dark lantern?" - "Yes."
"It was the password that kept our paradise hidden."
- Well? - The end was good what I could see.
- Is not Arnaud here? - He was supposed to meet someone.
- Can I take Milana home? - We're late, we're going home.
Please! You can go home without me. I'll come late. Let me follow Milana.
- So they can not arrest Milana. - What do you say? Don't prejudge anyone.
- Youssef, then? - That was something quite different.
- Let's go. - Mom...
- Milana lives next to Youssef. - I said no!
- Please, Mom! - I said no!
Please Mom!
Please!
Please, Mom.
- Do you have your cell phone? - Yes.
Be home in half an hour.
- Thanks, Mom. - Hurry up!
- Mom, do I have I.D. papers? - No, you don't.
So now we're going to set them up...
Can we have silence, please?
There are three families which need help, five children threatened.
Please, headmaster, listen to me.
That's just idealistic and illegal!
Wait a minute...
- Five children need help. - Calm down.
- Do you hear music? - She does not even know how it works.
Costs at least 30 euros...
- What? - Is it?
- What is it? - An "anti-child-ringer."
The school is no place to solve the problem of illegal immigrants.
- What are you doing? - "Anti-child-ringer", silly!
We test the ultrasound on Mrs Julien. Go over there.
I... I!
I want to say one thing. Can I just say something? I get the feeling...
I get the feeling that... I'm sorry. Since no one knows what may happen
perhaps it would be safer to let the children live in our families.
- Maybe... What is wrong with that? - I agree. A very good idea.
Sorry?
Who wants to take a child?
I remember hving to cry When I was separated from my family.
But in reality, I was happy. I was supposed to stay with Blaise.
- More, Milana? - No thank you, ma'am.
You do not call me ma'am.
Thanks, Mom.
No thank you, ma'am. I told you I do not want more. Yuck!
- You do not say "yuck" at the table. - No, "yuck"!
- Eat your food. - Yes, I know. Give me the salt.
How do you say madame?
And the mother?
- Why does not dad have more soup? - I'm already full grown.
- Eat, little girl! - You're too fat, you mean.
- We thought you were being funny, huh? - How do you say fat?
- Dad, you are "vestane". - How do you say stupid?
You are "aoudane".
And the "little girl who does not eat her soup. "How do you say it?
Tell me about it!
- Do you play video games? - No, I just show her!
- He collects pictures. - Do your homework.
- Oh yeah! - The music, the DVD. - What exactly do you do?
Technology! Check this out. It is "live". All the gang are logged.
"Al" is Ali. "Dio" is Claudio. You want to have your own codename?
Milana, "Miles An" or "An Mil".
- "Borze" wolf in Chechnya. - Borze...
So there... He should have the answers to all exercises. Chat room...
- Can you write it down? - You may still answers and I am nothing
- Has no site, no chat rooms. - Your homework's for babies.
- Really? How do you spell the Pyrenees? - Look, Claudio has written it.
Need help? We get up.
No, there was nothing. Oh no. Huh? Tell me about it.
- Pyrenees. - Yes.
- Alps. - Yes.
I'll teach you to cheat. Give me a pencil eraser.
No, a real, a large one.
That's better. See here... I write V for Vosges.
A For Alps. M Massif Central. And P for the Pyrenees.
It becomes VAMP. As the beginning of "vampire". Can you remember that?
V for what?
- No, do not try... - Vosges.
- M... - Finished with homework?
- Oh yeah! - P...
Pyrenees. Okay, I get it. Come and see my stuffed animals.
This is my favorite.
- What's her name? - Queen.
- Kind? - Yes.
This is Borze from now. She can even dance.
- And who is that? - Noiraud.
- How long will she stay? - I do not know, we have accepted her.
You did it. I could not decide.
Okay, I did it. And we go on vacation together.
You go up and brush your teeth.
What difference does it make to you? Who did you plan to go with?
- What did I say? - We do not do anything!
Did you want to follow for once?
Enough!
- Stop it! Give him the toothbrush! - Mom, he is not brushing his teeth!
That decides it! She's lying! Look, I'm brushing my teeth.
What are you laughing at?
You are so annoying!
- Aren't you brushing your teeth? - Yes.
- The brushes're dry. Brush now! - But Dad, it's unfair.
- Milana has already brushed hers. - Then they become even cleaner.
3 minutes times 3 = 9 minutes! And I don't want to hear a sound.
Blaise! Toothpaste on! Not a sound! Do not make me get up again!
And now, Blaise, you will not leave your room again.
- Daddy, will you follow us to Brittany? - I think not.
- How do you spell the Pyrenees? - "How do you spell the Pyrenees?"
Now you quit, you and your brother. Running between the rooms like that.
- But he definitely wants to stay. - Yes, but now with all of them.
- It's late. Where is your friend? - She's putting on pajamas.
Then you turn off the light, okay? And sleep...
See you tomorrow, my little sweetie.
Blaise, enough is enough. Stop playing! Blaise, you hear! Lights off now!
- Blaise is still fighting with us. - He's just playing.
- He will definitely be in our room. - Do not start to cry?
- He can live with another family? - I asked but no one wants him.
Look...
- What is it? - Do it.
- A kiss? - Two kisses.
One for you and one for Milana. Sleep now...
I want to see you sleep.
Come! I want to hear you snore.
Higher!
Have you put on your pajamas yet?
If you need something, call me. Even in the middle of the night.
I did not hear. Sure, I can do it, baby.
I go nowhere. I'll stand here. No one can come in.
Careful, I'm falling out!
The time corresponds to the decimal system
without rotation of the earth around the sun.
So, one day... equivalent to 24 hours.
1 = coast is clear, 2 = caution 3 = danger, 4 = schoolyard, 5 = basements
1, the coast is clear. 2, cautiously.
3... 3, danger, 4, schoolyard, 5, basements.
There is also the sexagesimal number system
based on the number 60.
You do not always bring us to school and take us back. We are not kids.
- So very embarrassing! - As an escort!
- Parents everywhere, no justice. - We'll see after the break.
"We'll see, we'll see..." It's unfair.
It is true and anyway they will not stop children with adults.
- Because of you, we might be stopped. - No, we will protect you.
It makes it look more suspicious. If we went alone, hand in hand...
It would look innocent. With you, we risk getting caught.
Keep it up and we will send all three of you to Russia, to Putin!
- What is that noise? - Do you have a cell phone?
Where are you? We're supposed to go out.
- What is happening? - I sent the message.
- Cops outside. - Tell my parents.
Did not you hear it? Out with you! Do you not hear me either?
- We heard but the police are outside. - Waiting for your mother or you?
Ali, say that we should meet at the back.
Come on. Then I'll collect Mrs Zous' children.
- Your parents are there. - Bye.
Strange that you have suddenly become silent.
- When do we go to Russia? - Do not mess with your little sister!
She asks you to go with them, you start to cry. And we also.
She cries, so do not reply. Say you sleep with me and my cousin.
- One of our specialties. - Thank you very much.
- What's that? - Nanti.
How do you do it?
It is baked meat and then one steams it.
I knew that there was no hope for the holidays.
I knew it, my cousins always said, that all this was not right.
I should not stay in a foreign family.
They say "thank you, thank you."
- Say that we are very happy. - Your dad thanks you for the food.
Look, I understand French.
- She is glad Milana goes with you. - Awesome! They agree!
- Wouldn't she sit down? - Milana! Are you coming down?
- Should I cry? - No, they'll be worried.
We'll go down and laugh when we hear the news.
- Alice and Blaise, come quickly! - Will do, just clearing the lesson!
- Mom, can we see your drawings? - If you want.
May I show you our room for mom?
"The honeymoon does not exist, and neither french fries, caramel or cotton candy "
"Tourists, lost in the anger kingdom should quickly leave!"
Happy.
Be brave.
You must be brave.
You must be happy.
- Should I take your bags? - Let them be. I'll get them later.
- And now, will you help me? - Fix up the stove so nothing explodes.
- Do not come in! - We saw a snake.
Did it see you? That's good. So it became terrified and will not come again.
- When we were your age... - Instead of asking for something
we fetched water in the stream and then we did the dishes in tubs.
Inside or out, depending on the weather. We scrubbed the pots with sand.
"In the absence of electricity, we had candles and oil lamps."
- Right. - Out with you! Stop tormenting me! Out!
What is it? Is something wrong?
What is it? I can not hear you.
- It is there, over there. - Your protege is safe here.
You're kidding yourself. They can arrest her easier here than in school.
Do you think the police will ever get here?
They show up anywhere, anytime.
- No more bicycles. - "I am a victim of a police state!"
"I am a freedom fighter! I am righteous!"
I just want law and justice to be respected.
Can you get it into your head? Or do you understand nothing?
You want the parents deported? So you get to keep Milana.
- For that's what you want. - Go on. I can handle that. You can go.
- Take you home. - The truth hurts!
The truth is that I am tired of your playing Joan of Arc!
Helping parents use their children to get credentials!
For your good conscience sake!
You make me crazy! Know what you have become? A useful idiot!
- They need you and your protests. - And you are a worthless idiot!
That says, "Congratulations, you succeed in getting a fucking third kid!"
Where is he? The handsome mourning brave man! He went away? I can understand that!
Listen to me! Listen all?
Never go away from here without telling me. It is dangerous. Okay?
You hear that, Milana? Come swim with us.
- Come... - Coward!
Away with you!
My sandal!
Do not run on the bridge!
- There it is! - Yes, I see it!
Careful.
- Give it to me. - To the side!
- It moves still. - Third step, I'll burn it up.
I'll burn it alive as a witch. My cigarettes! I'm burning it up.
- What is it? - A leech. What are you doing?
- Teeth for you. - No. Beware, so you do not burn up!
- What is it? A snake? - No, a leech!
I'm burning up the living...
- It fell into the water. - Where is it now?
- I also have one! - Is it still sucking?
- Come... all in the water! - Not me!
- Do not be a coward! - Get out!
- Come... - It's hot!
Mom, bra! We see her tits! We see her tits!
The match...
The flame...
Beware the hair, it's really dangerous.
And so... lamp!
It's there!
- Watch out! - Bat!
Open the window! Chase it away with your shirts.
Wait a minute... Light the candle, this is too dangerous. Ignition!
Did it fly out?
Yes.
Oh.
All right.
Ask for a photocopy of the letter, as soon as possible.
And so you have to add to the...
... the rejection of her application,
and documents showing how long she had been in France.
Okay, kiss and hug.
- Bedtime! - Oh, no!
Well, now it's time for bed.
Miss!
- Are you crazy or what? - It is difficult. Try it yourself.
Put that hand here, so there. Pull. Do not hold it against you.
And so aim... So there, yes. And then release.
Knock it off! What is it with you?
- Blaise! - Blaise!
Let him be miserable. Continue.
There, there, try...
I love you.
A little.
Very, passionately.
- Where is snot clearer? - At the River.
Madly, not at all.
You look great in it. Don't you think?
- Want to try another? - No, this is fine.
You look great.
- Sure you do not want to jump in? - Yes, for sure.
- Do you freeze? - No, I just don't want to.
Don't you want to show off your swimsuit?
Your swimsuit is stylish.
A towel!
- I'm cold. - Quick, fast, fast!
We'll go looking for crabs.
Come with me, let's go and look for crabs! Come quickly!
It is cruel to kill live animals!
Yuk, that sounds terrible!
Leave us in peace!
- Stick! - Leave us alone!
You are so disgusting!
Look, it's you... and that's me.
Look... we go together.
It's you and it's me.
You... I.
We bumped into each other.
It's raining properly.
It's us and that's the police. They can't catch us.
We are much faster than them.
I could not call or write Mom and give her my love.
Blaise, Ali, Arthur...
The river, the beach...
I felt bad because I was feeling good, because I was happy. I was ashamed.
Blaise!
- The apples are mashed. - Mine is full of ash. Disgusting!
- What do you think it is? - I do not know.
- Is there a Z? - A Z?
- Alice, your turn. - Of course it is Z.
- Your attempt. - Thank you.
A O?
- A zero? - Yes.
It's the same as O.
This, then?
- Easy! B! B is for Blaise. - Not at all.
- Yes! B is for Blaise. - Do not be stupid!
Oh, she's lying! She's lying, she's in love with Blaise!
- Did you hear what I said? Set the table! - It's the girls' turn.
- Yes, that's right. Girls, set the table. - Not fair! We are smaller.
Right for you! Boys, unload the dishwasher.
- Why is it always us? - Because it is always you.
Shit Sad.
Slowly, so we do not set the table.
Slowly, so we do not have to empty the machine.
Good idea.
6...
7...
1... 2...
- A little faster... - Sure.
The food is on the table! Milana!
We do not have glasses, napkins, salt and pepper...
As usual. Milana!
- I'll get her. - What is she doing?
Milana!
Milana! Where are you?
- Mom, bedroom window is open. - What does "dik Hila" mean?
- The window is open. - She is outdoors! Look for her!
Get the torches and stay near me.
- Milana! - Milana!
- Ali, Blaise, immediately come back! - Milana!
- Emma, come with me! We'll go in again! - We must find her!
- I'm calling the police. - No!
Or the fire department. Fetch my mobile. Go. Stop it's shining on me!
Milana?! Quick, Mom! Milana is in the house! Come quickly!
- She is in here! - Where were you? Where on earth were you?
Huh? What does "dik Hila" mean?
- Tell me. - It means "be happy".
Are you hiding when you're happy?
- In Bed! - Food, then?
- Blame yourselves. - We'll have to brush your teeth?
Yeah, yeah, brush your teeth. I do not want to see you any longer.
- Should I take Nutella? - Yes, go on.
Be quiet.
- I'll take the banana. - Take the juice.
Is everyone ready? Let's go!
- Good night, Mom. - Good night to you.
It's good now. I sit in front of the fire and see their socks drying.
A lot of socks belonging to small children. They are still very small.
Did you get a photocopy of the deportation letter?
When is the deadline? Is it?
I saw Cendrine sit by the fire.
She was crying. I will always remember what she said into the phone.
"A lot," a lot of Chechen children. I was petrified.
Afraid that she would go back with me to Paris, and be sent away from me.
I started to cry. I had a foreboding.
Stay here! Do not release them.
A horrible accident has occurred in front of the school!
Go to the schoolyard. Your parents will pick you up. Do not go out alone!
Those who do not eat in the dining room come with me. The rest of you wait here.
Mrs. Zou? Are you sure? Were police in the house? I can not talk now.
People think anyone can get credentials! Now see what the result is!
- Jumped from third... - Is she dead?
Ms Zou. Police officers were in her house.
Dad said there were letters to her.
I saw Mrs. Salmon with a petition against Milana's expulsion. Scary...
I can call the Mayor, so we should have him and everything will be fine.
- Is Mrs. Zou's death also good? - It does not apply to her without Milana.
- With the Mayor we'll find a solution - By leveraging contacts? No!
Damn it! To do everything possible! Is that your solution?
You know Luc, "avoid conflict, find a solution." He wants to call Vaillant.
And you know how I am. I hate favors, exploiting contacts.
It only makes things worse. You help someone and have a clear conscience.
But everyone else, then? In fact, it only gets harder to achieve something.
- Blaise! Sneak listening? - The door was open.
Give me a kiss and go to bed.
- Do you want a small gherkin? - Three.
- Sorry. - It's okay, honey.
Sorry.
No, I'm against it. Maybe I'm stupid but I can distinguish between right and wrong.
Mom spoke with Caroline and dad is in the bedroom.
Really?
I am sure of one thing. They will never separate us.
Did you hear? It's the mobile.
"Got SMS from Youssef. Do not cry. Damn it, I'm going to attack!"
Telattel
Hold on, I'll check.
- Did you see on Blaise's lips? - His lips? Which lip?
The upper lip. He's starting to get fluff. Tell him that he shouldn't shave it off.
He does not. That a government showing foreigners who are not
- "Qualified to be in France" is not okay for me... but okay
but to determine the number in advance, I just cannot take it.
- Maybe it's 10,000 or 152,000! - How about a kiss?
How do you say 27,000 in advance? It's absurd!
I show thousands of sperm is not it absurd? Outrageous?
You want to continue to put the light out when we have sex.
I want it lit.
Well?
- They discuss expulsion. - Alarm!
- When I write "3". - 3, danger. 4, meeting at the farm. 3-4.
- Disinfectant, plasters, stomach pills - I can take aspirin, but not many.
Bring computer batteries, conventional batteries and knives.
No cell phones, right? The cops have a system for them and can track us.
Pepper, however, who will bring it?
- Garbage bags? - I've already put a lot there.
- You will not leave all that? - We are studying for exams.
Eat your spinach and you'll get muscles.
Telatte!
- Tomorrow is D-Day well? - Tomorrow!
- Have you signed the petition list? - No, I want you expelled.
Typical, I appreciate it!
- The mirror, too. - You do not have a mirror?
- No, take it. - If you want, so...
It is in now, you can rest easy. Just gets hard to close the bag.
It's nothing. It did go down well like that.
- And as for these. - Yes.
- And my cage. - It will not fit.
- Yes! Press! - It does not go in.
- But damn... - There is so much I need to.
We'll be staying in a submarine. What if you miss something...
- Oh, no. Pack yours. See you tomorrow. - It's already tomorrow, you idiot.
- You can wear the cage. - And then make up stuff.
- Take only things we will find useful. - There we have it.
It is held in memory of Mrs. Zou at school. Wait for me in the yard.
- As usual, Mom. - And you can not leave.
Hey. Okay, thank you.
- Won't you go there tonight? - Can not think. I'll be following later.
Yes? No one there, we can continue.
- What do we do now? - We are waiting for them.
- Tell me when you see them. - Yes.
- Finally, you will come. - Ali will not. My brother is sick.
- How are we doing? - We do it anyway.
- Okay? - Yes.
- I finished the third window. - I brought down comforters.
- Have you Queen? - Yes. Have you Borze?
Yes, here.
Just a computer battery! What would Ali have more with him?
Damn, the papers!
- What else you got? - A bunch of stuff.
- What do you cook in it? - Do not know, you do blinis in it.
- Make it clear, I can not embed. - Do you run with me?
- Yes. - You are hopeless.
- Beds accessed Queen? - Yes.
- Will sleep like a log. - I hope so.
You pee in the morning? Middle of the day?
I never thought about it.
- Where do we do it? - We piss here.
You can pee in the pots. As in a potty.
- Okay, but where? - There.
Then put it into a trash bag and tie it together as we said.
- We have 50 pieces of 100-liter bags. - But where do we go and pee?
- How are you doing in Brittany? - A short distance away. Where is this?
- What are you doing? - My idea
is to stack the cans on top of each other to form a partition wall.
Sleeping all together, we are less afraid.
No fear!
- What if my family finds us. - No one will find us.
"We called everyone Milana."
They are gone, yes, but disappeared not into thin air!
- It can not be true. A nightmare! - This is Blaise's and Alice's mother.
They probably have not been kidnapped but have run away themselves.
- Do you know why? - Youssef's expulsion, Zou's murder...
- Wife Zou's suicide. - The threat of deportation of Milana.
Why leave? They left any message?
- Something new? - Come with photos, health cards, etc..
- Are you the father? No family problems? - No, we get along well.
- Nothing can be ruled out. - We are wasting time.
Your children have not been subjected to violence or something?
No.
No drug problem either?
- Do you know who is responsible? - You have debt!
- This is not the place... Calm down. - I am calm! You are such a diplomat!
- Always the same! Do you know their age? - We do our job.
- Have you sent out an alarm? - Come, let's go.
- What a pig! - You are all such pigs!
No more dishes!
Ten a day, 100 in each packet. We can hold out for a year.
A year on this diet? No "5 fruits a day," just!
You took all the chips!
- Thief! - You have the whole package.
- What are you doing? - Ketchup sandwich.
- Your turn. - It's not jam!
Realize that we are responsible for Milana.
I'm blown and understand nothing!
If you had not... You got it. If I had to call Vaillant...
If I had to talk to one I have known for 30 years, he had helped us.
Yes, you're right. Happy now? Are you happy now? You are right!
You are right! You win! You are right!
- Is there no sugar? - Stop whining.
It is that noise at night. People throw bottles in containers.
- Do you want something? - Can I have some juice?
We can play Ludo again? Today I want the red.
- I do not know. We shall see. - Thank you.
- Washcloth. - It was not on the list.
Brush your teeth! 3 minutes!
- 1, 2, 3... - You're not married! Are not parents!
I'm ready. Give me milk.
That was quick.
- "Telatte"? What does that mean? - No, it's just a mess.
Should a piece of paper lead to my son? Why are you doing this to me?
I would not overlook any traces at all.
Why do not ask your people?
Someone may have seen a car or some mysterious person.
We can do our job.
Is this his? His mobile phone and charger.
Do not stay here! Acting as a ministerson!
Be calm. Maybe the shirt helps to find your son.
Please, find my Claudio. He's probably terrified.
"Telatte"? Does it mean something?
Did you know about Alice's mobile? Do you not remember?
Whose phone is this?
Mixture? Then it's mine.
- I took a ball too. - But there's no room.
- So that's enough... - Do not be stupid.
- We can play the flute. - Stop it!
- What are the bubbles for? - Set the table.
- For how many? - Do not be silly!
Come on, try.
Losing dogs track with pepper, takes cops other ways. Get it?
- I made zero. - Not just you.
Concentrate. Do you remember anything...
- We know nothing. - Please. Let her talk.
They refuse to help, refuse to answer.
They are afraid. They're protecting her daughter.
Why did you let Milana stay with you?
If you have to ask why, you will not understand the answer.
Protect her from what? The police? It is absurd.
And that's all we have to go on. Can you move on you?
- See the camera. - We film.
Milana, little sweetheart. I love you. Where are you? We have no idea.
I want you to come home. Everyone is here and waiting for you.
My little Milana, I love you so much. Please, come back.
- "Do not cry. You must be brave." - Think about how she got it.
Damn, the battery is dead.
- My mother, then? - She has forgotten you. They are happy.
Anyway, you had bad grades and ate sloppy.
- He had great grades. - What we took with the scurvy?
Wait, silent... It is our ringtone. It is Ali!
He is by the garbage cans and gesturing.
3... 5th
We are in the newspaper!
"Paris lost children. Where are they?"
You look terrible in the photo, Alice.
He will do as they find us.
3-5. It means "danger-basement".
"Danger in the basement" or "soon there"?
- "Danger outside, stay inside." - Okay, I'm tired of biscuits.
- He goes. - Put it on again.
You can listen through walls of glass.
"Yes, a strong bond between us, but that give me a ring that was your mother?"
"Your husband is the only one who chases women."
"He got everything he wanted from you."
"I just know a girl not to be missed love of his life."
Mysterious disappearance in school. At 16:35 parents and teachers noticed
Milana and Claudio missing, both 11 years old, Blaise, 12, and
his sister Alice, 8 years. One is a Chechen girl without papers.
- Still have no trace where they can be - I cannot comment right now.
The police are investigating and... we can just wait. We have no idea.
Accident, family quarrels, kidnapping? Nothing can be ruled out yet.
Police seek witnesses but according to our sources...
If you could explain to us why they did this?
One of our friends was expelled. Then it was Milana's turn...
And then the cops... the cops... chasing Mrs. Zou, who died.
- Mrs. Zou committed suicide. - Hunted them maybe they do too.
- Have you talked about suicide? - Never.
Why do you say that, then? Are you lying?
The police are lying.
- What is that noise? - Must be underground.
- No sewer system. - The underground monster!
- You're not funny. - He scares you?
- Not at all. - She's shaking.
- Are you sure? - Of course he scares me.
Stop it, she will cry.
Blaise...
Quiet!
Wake up! Watch!
- What time is it? - I do not know.
If Alice sees it, she'll freak out.
- We could call it Telatte. - If you want it, so...
- It eats. - Sure, we have it good here?
- Yes. - With our little rat.
Do not even know if it's a rat with the tail.
Why do you say that? It eats and washes itself.
- It wants to go. - Allow it to do so.
Say something stupid you have done or your best memory.
My best memory is when we were in Chechnya with my cousin Ansar.
You should be with them. You're in the gang.
Come, drink.
Of course you can not say anything. I would keep quiet, if I were you.
But if they are in danger, you must tell me.
- What sweet! - Just cut...
Nine kids, nine names to find on. The mother called Telatte.
I know how to tell them apart. With a color patch on the back.
They are so cute.
I will always recognize this. Will hot Queen, as my stuffed animals.
- Careful, they are fragile. - She is careful.
- They see the blind out. - They are born with eyes closed.
Beware of the mother.
- How long should we stay? - To break begins.
- So we will not have school. - We go out when it pays off.
We go out when Ali rings once, write a one or knocks once
- Got it? - Yes, all right.
How can four children disappear
without that the alarm has been triggered in the media?
The system is the late 2006 and now it's 2009!
- It is a poem about you. - How does it sound?
That you have to learn Chechen to know.
It's Ali. I hear the ringtone.
3-5. 3-5.
- He says we'll stay here. - Then do it.
What are the other children?
"More children disappear"
Lots of students disappear. Run away from home.
It is very dangerous. They appeal to us.
People crying. Oh fuck, in Belgium, too.
Damn, they shut off the TV!
Stay calm.
In here.
We grabbed your brother for a drug deal. You'd better talk.
- Do not be an idiot! - I do not say "idiot" to you.
No, I get really hoping! Do not think of the idea...
- Mr Tahar, where are your friends? - I do not know.
- Look at me when I talk to you. - Listen...
After Zou's wife's tragic death, it has been determined that your buddies
Youssef, Milana family, wife Zou's children all get ID documents.
Your extortion practices get unproductive, if you do not stop now.
- You will cause the opposite effect. - Feels hopeless, but you have won.
- How to talk to now! - Look at us!
- Tears will not help. - I also have children.
In other cities a number of children are copying you.
There will be problems, so think it over.
Do that and talk later.
6 English children who disappeared
like the four kids in Paris have just been found.
A man who was walking his dog
found them in an abandoned barn where they had taken cover.
What a relief! We were so worried. It was horrible.
The children have been taken care of by the fire department.
What about these disappearances? Is it a new protest movement?
We should not exaggerate,
there are children who run away from home and the police are looking for them
- But I want to point out... - This has to stop.
- Someone must have seen them somewhere. - Milana's got credentials.
- What more do they want? - They want more.
- Where are you? - Talk to Ali.
He thinks we do not.
When he hears about Milana he believes me.
- M? - No.
- I know. O? - No.
- H? - It was the last chance. All hung!
- Word was Telatte. - Telatte is Chechen.
- So what? Also, the rat's name! - This means "attack".
It was too easy.
- Whose turn is it? - Yours. We were not on the floor.
Have you heard this one? The course begins on the B.
Normally on N.
Bullshit! The course begins at the B and ends at N.
No! The word banana, fruit. It starts on the B.
- You said it yourself. - But normally in N.
Huh? It would be "Nanan".
No. For "normal" begins on N. Bring your brain next time.
I wonder to this day why we went with hands in the air. Whose idea was it?
Where were you somewhere?
Bravo!
When I returned home, I had so much hair that I remember it yet.
They had been so worried.
And there we were with our hands in the air days they would be meeting.
Bravo!
That was the day I was told the real tragedy.
I had ID documents.
My family was my father in Lille. I have to say goodbye to Blaise.
The very next day we left Paris.
When we came out, I was struck by the silence. It was like going in slow motion.
Where have you been?
I received a sound thrashing. Dad did not dare punish Alice.
I did not cry.
- Just went away for four days! - But what have you been up to?
My mom just looked at me and hugged me hard.
All were convinced that she had helped us.
She always refused to talk about it.
But the feasting that day she was unexpectedly with her whole family.
Milana left Paris.
We never met again. I do not even know if she's still alive.
But not a day has gone past but that I thought of her.
