Makes the skin soft and supple.

Delicious.

My first husband couldn't bake at all.

He came back from Siberian camps in '53.

His hands were shattered.

I was nearly arrested on my way here.

I mean, not really...

The policeman wasn't too bad,

actually...

I have such a fundamental

fear of authorities, of...

- uniforms, violence.

- I'm the same.

You'd think the world had become

a better place, but...

the residents here are so aggressive

against anything that's different.

But still...

could you pass me the menu please?

Chicken fricassee again tomorrow.

The same every week.

But always on different days of the week

so we won't notice.

I love chicken fricassee

if it's done well.

Now lift please.

And here's the machine again.

My son Georg...

he's afraid of death.

So he's also afraid of me, of old age.

That's how I have to explain it to

myself. That's why he doesn't come.

Ah well...

But my grandson...

I miss him terribly.

Right...

Now it is all pretty again.

They do feel so much lighter.

You are an artist, Claude. An artist.

I can't tell you how much

your praise means to me.

I wanted to tell you...

about your grandson...

Well... I'm truly sorry.

Oh wow.

- Oh, my God!

- Let's hope nobody sees us in here.

- Will you look at this?

- Isn't it fantastic?

Not bad, actually.

You sit inside the bubble and don't hear

anything except this pleasant purr.

- You hear that?

- Beautiful. Soothing.

Anything irritating stays outside.

- God, it's so ugly in here.

- Everything's dulled, sealed off.

They call it psychoacoustics.

So when someone buys

such an expensive car,

he then wants to test his new

exoskeleton to the limit, of course.

That's why there's no speed limit.

Death racing is only allowed in Germany.

So that everybody thinks they're free.

I'm starving.

We'll stop at an organic supermarket.

Can't we just go to McDonald's?

You sound just like your son.

No, we can't.

Nice how you always

decide everything for me.

Are you allowed to light me a cigarette?

So, how much

is one of these beautiful furs?

Ah well, they start at three thousand.

I'll have to write quite a few

parking tickets for that then.

A smile is the

small change of happiness.

Yes.

Thank you.

- Hello?

- Hi, there.

I was just thinking that we could do

something together this afternoon.

Just the two of us.

Cooking, talking and stuff.

I have this Thai food craving.

Could you perhaps go shopping?

I can't manage with

all my camera stuff. Alright?

Great.

Do you have a pen?

So... two cans of...

coconut milk, lemongrass,

coriander, mild fish sauce

and some small red Thai onions,

about 100 grams.

And a ripe mango would be great.
