Germain!

I'm about to lose my job...

Time... not your thesis

against modern art...

I need you to tell me... that those twins

are two unfortunate f***ers!

Well, these unfortunates f***ers,

want to close the gallery.

Give me a month. A month to show

that it can be viable.

You have to sell something,

or theyll sell the store...

...And that will be the end of the gallery.

- And you, how was your day?

- My day? Nothing in particular.

- Yes, I talked to this guy.

- And?

- We talked, and gave me a task.

- So what?

He returned it.

And gave me a 2nd chapter to write.

Id written:

"to be continued."

- Do you have it with you?

- Yes.

You dont want to read it?

- Dont know if it's a good idea.

- 10 years ago I read the work of your students.

When we entered, Rafas mother

was in the living room...

... a magazine in one hand,

and a tape-measure in the other.

Hi Mom!

She delayed us because

she was measuring a window...

Are you okay?

On top of the TV, next to a Chinese dragon,

a picture of the holy family.

A dragon that looked as

though it was going to devour all.

- Your friend?

- Claude.

- You worked right?

- I got a 14 in math.

- And thanks to Claude.

- A 14 is great!

Would you like a snack?

I bought a baguette

and no chocolate.

Im going.

We left the kitchen

and returned to the living room...

... your magazine in one hand,

tape-measure in the other,...

... floating like a ghost,

in a skirt that showed...

a middle class. Woman's body...

(To be continued..)

- It makes me uncomfortable.

- Why?

Dont you find it strange that a guy

of 16 years would write something?

With so much irony?

It seems no more strange

than your Inflatable dolls sex shop.

Its not a sex shop, Germain,

its an art gallery!

I know, Theyre deviant dolls:

Sex and dictatorship...

Sure it makes sense:

The dictatorship of sex!

Maybe you should talk to the Director?

Because the he speaks about the body

of a middle class woman?

Well, talk to your colleagues,

other profs and parents.

- You should talk to the parents.

- To keep him from entering their home?

No Rafa's parents,

with the writer, Claude.

Maybe this guy needs a psychiatrist,

he might be dangerous.

Hes just a naughty boy.

Angry with reality, nothing more.

There is reason, no? Its better to

vent his rage than to burn cars.

He may have a problem

and is trying to get your attention.

- How is he physically?

- I told you, nothing in particular.

- And in the class?

- No talking, no problems.

The only thing is that he always

sits in the last row.

- You too you sat in the back row.

- Its the best place, you know?

You see all

and no one sees you.

- Good morning.

François Ozon

François Ozon (French: [fʁɑ̃.swa o.zɔ̃]; born 15 November 1967) is a French film director and screenwriter whose films are usually characterized by sharp satirical wit and a freewheeling view on human sexuality. He has achieved international acclaim for his films 8 femmes (2002) and Swimming Pool (2003). Ozon is considered to be one of the most important French film directors in the new "New Wave" in French cinema such as Jean-Paul Civeyrac, Philippe Ramos, and Yves Caumon, as well as a group of French filmmakers associated with a "cinema du corps/cinema of the body". more…
