La famille Belier Page #2

Synopsis: The Béliers are ordinary people: Rodolphe and Gigi are married, have two children and run their farm for a living. Ordinary people? Well, almost... since three of them, Dad, Mum and their son Quentin, are deaf. Which is not the case of the boy's big sister, Paula. And not only can she speak but her music teacher scouts her beautiful voice as well. He offers her to sit for the entrance exam of the Maîtrise de Radio France, a vocal elite choir in Paris. Her parents, who rely on her as their ears and mouth in the outside world, take the news badly. Paula, who hates the idea of betraying her parents and her brother, goes through a painful dilemma...

That idiot!

What do you see in him?

I don't know.

I have bad taste anyway.

How do you say "a**hole"

in sign language?

- Ass...

- Ass...

hole.

The "ass", the "hole",

roughly, is your head.

- That suits him, no?

- Very good.

They are starting again!

Oh no!

There's no time here!

Next.

Arise, children of the fatherland,

The day of glory has arrived.

Oh my gosh!

This day is not going to happen!

Shush! We will see more!

Shush! Next one!

You with the glasses.

Listen.

Arise, children of the fatherland

- Yes?

- The day of glory has arrived

Not bad. A little rough spots.

Goes with the good ones.

Next. Next?

Hey, you. Come on!

Hear the note, eh!

Arise, children of the fatherland

The day of glory has arrived.

Your parents must be happy.

Come on.

Next?

Here goes!

Yes?

Arise, chil ...

Enough. Next!

- You haven't...!

- There's nothing that comes out of the shrimp.

Next!

- Come on!

- It's dead!

- Forget it, he's an a**hole.

- Well, the lady there.

with the oversized sweater.

- You hear me, come on.

- I pass.

Didn't you have breakfast?

- We do not hear anything.

- I said I cannot sing.

- And why is that?

- No thank you, it's for losers.

Excuse-me?

No thank you,

it's for losers.

Alto, perfect.

Come on.

- But I...

- Come on.

Hi, guys!

The incumbent mayor, Mr. Lapidus,

launches a new project

for industrial zone.

[S.L.] The mayor is on TV.

Come translate.

Why this choice...

on Hubert's site?

Well.

To attract companies

to settle near production sites,

Hubert seems ideally located.

In developing economy

on that raw area, listen,

according to our forecasts,

hundred jobs could be created,

in the coming years.

This is a new era.

Today I want to say:

GO Lassay!

[S.L.] He wants to take agricultural land

to do that, this crazy!

And the forest.

There is the mall too.

[S.L.] I'm going to defend myself, me.

He'll see!

What are you going to do?

Run for election?

- [S.L.] No, are you kidding?

- How can you do that?

[S.L.] We can beat him together.

As a team, the four of us?

[S.L.] The Blier family!

[S.L.] You're the greatest, Dad.

[S.L.] What's going on?

[S.L.] Nothing. Nothing at all.

[S.L.] Yes there is.

[S.L.] It's just that...

[S.L.] This election thing...

I don't know if it's a good idea.

[S.L.] Why? Because I'm deaf?

Being deaf is not a handicap. It's an identity!

[S.L.] For a politician,

it's not practical.

[S.L.] But Obama, then?

He is black.

[S.L.] No correlation!

[S.L.] Being black was not a handicap

to become president?

Yeah

[S.L.] Our family together...

- Hello.

- Hello.

- We come to apply.

- Of course.

- That's it.

- Thank you. Goodbye.
