What will I do during your meeting?

It won't take long.

Afterwards, l'll drive you to Marseille.

I was in love with you.

I never think about Algeria.

I don't know why.

At home,

there was no nostalgia.

Nobody mentioned it.

My parents worked hard, turned the page.

It catches up with you, see?

You're doing well, big deals.

I get by.

Bythe way, there are no other offers.

Don't be rushed into it.

It's done.

Who ran that candy store

in your building?

I don't remember.

Cigarette.

Mandonato.

Your husband's name?

I kept it.

He died a few years back.

A diving accident off Reunion Island.

L'm sorry.

We'd separated.

You're married?

Yes.

With an 11-year-old girl.

Check out the view...

You'll see better from the sea.

They're already building across the bay.

And the water supply?

There's a great little spring

on the property.

- lt's a tough sell.

- Don't saythat!

Planning permission was a real battle.

Is this your lady?

Like it? What do you think?

Lt's beautiful.

Let's go down.

With those heels, you'll never make it.

Give her a hand.

I can stay here.

Come on, don't leave me.

Good idea, bringing yourwife.

She's beautiful, fair...

If we make a deal, l'll show you

the truffles and the bantams.

Look at this! Magnificent!

It's sublime!

There you see...

The land starts

at those pine trees, see?

- Above the path.

-Yes, I see.

And stretches to the road,

over the hill.

Over the hill?

You see?

Sh*t, what's wrong now?

- What?

- lt's stalled.

Do you mind moving forward,

next to your...

Nothing to worry about.

No problem.

Lsn't it beautiful?

Just imagine a garden like that.

It has everything.

Trees, color...

Fennel.

Fennel in abundance.

I can't live without fennel.

I'll show you.

If you buy, l'll show you everything.

We'll get it started.

It does this sometimes.

lt's getting old.

Your parents still alive?

Myfather.

I thought he'd stay on

after independence.

I'd never met people like you,

who thought that way.

I was always a bit afraid foryou.

Evening, Marc.

Evening, sir.

You're dead!

Who is this?

You and your Arab friends!

Leave Algeria alone, commie bastard?

You're dead!

Sh*t!

In the doghouse?

You're serving dinner?

Of course.

You wanted a shower?

I went for a swim.

It was chilly.

You'll have to take a room.

Fine.

See if n"4's ready.

Can I use the phone?

On the bar. Dial direct.

Follow me, ma'am.

Hi, Manouche.

Is Mommythere?

No, don't bother her.

L'm dining in Cassis with my client.

He's a tough nut.

Tell her not to wait up,

l'll be late.

Lots of love.

You hurt yourself?

Yes, at the beach.

You always had that?

Stay some more.

The guy who ran the store...
