Marieke, Marieke

Mum, is daddy dead for ever?

Yes, but he still sees you

and protects you.

Does he protect you too?

Anna seems to be on time,

this morning.

We need to talk.

You've not returned my calls.

I came back from Berlin to see you.

I have nothing more to say to you.

Who was it?

Nobody.

Sit down.

- It's Anna.

Hi, I'm early, no?

Hallo, Jeanne.

Everything OK?

- Yes.

Hmm, delicious.

Did you make this jelly?

- Yes.

Here, for you.

- Thanks.

Come on, lazy bones,

or we'll be late again.

That bloody factory!

- They'll kick us out if we're late.

See you, mum.

- Bye, Jeanne.

Jeanne,

I have to talk to you...

Cover your head.

Leave us.

Personnally,

I'd replace them with machines.

That would ruin the view.

Plus you couldn't keep the slogan.

Yes..."hand-made by angels".

Hi.

Could I have two coins, please?

Thanks.

You want my picture, or what?

You weren't here last week.

- So what?

You're waiting for Anna?

- I'm waiting for someone.

A man?

No, a boy.

Can I get you a drink?

A coffee would be nice.

I like your feet.

Mum...

why did you never go

with another man?

Men are wonderful.

You mean a man

or men in general?

I can find you a man. Just tell me

the kind you like, and that's it.

Ah! Is it that simple?

Yes, you just have to go for it,

that's all.

What makes you think

I even want another man?

Daddy died 12 years ago.

Please,

I can't just do that on command.

But that's something

you can't understand, can you?

I'm not used to having doors

shut in my face.

What are you doing here?

We have to talk.

I have decided

to re-edit Joseph's book.

12 years after his death?

I believe in it.

I want the original manuscript

that you still have.

The subject is very modern.

That's why you came back,

after all these years?

For the sake of modernity?

You never answered my letters.

- No.

Don't you think

there's been enough damage?

Jeanne,

I'm not responsible for his death.

And neither are you.

For you, for Marieke, for him.

Don't you think we owe him that?

After he died,

I wanted to forget everything.

I forgot you too.

I never forgot you.

Please stay.

You had a good day?

And you?

Is that what you do at night?

You should be ashamed of yourself.

I sacrificed everything for you.

Who's that man in the water?

He's a wonderful man.

It's about time you made

something out of your life.

That's what I'm doing.

You scare me.

Don't go through my stuff anymore.

Stop that.

Ronny's looking.

How many?

In one hour you should

at least get to 1.400.

No taste.

See you tomorrow.

Have a nice day.

Sorry, I can't come right now.

I still have work.

Go on your own.

Hi, mum.

I don't have a big enough vase.

You'll have to cut them.

They're the special long ones.

We can't cut them.

Thanks.

I like your dress.

It's too tight.

You want a taste?

- Why don't you start?

I'll wait for you.

I told you, auntie's coming

for my birthday.

No, you didn't.

- Aren't you going to Anna's tonight?

The guy is looking for a parking space.

He can't find one.

After 20 minutes, still no parking.

We are in Jerusalem, so why not?

Good Lord, if you find me a space

within 2 minutes,

I promise to go

to the synagogue every Friday,

I'll eat kosher,

I'll respect the 10 commandments.

And at that very moment,

a car pulls away.

He looks up to the sky and says

'Never mind, I found a space.'

What's the difference

between an English, a Jew and a French?

The English man has a wife

and a mistress

and he loves his wife.

The French has a wife and a mistress...

- And he loves his mistress.

And the Jew?

- He loves his mother.

Let's have a drink outside.

Don't take my picture.

Delete it.

No, never.

I'll always keep it.

Yes?

Stop fooling around.

- You don't want me anymore?

It's my last offer.

Enough now...

Wait for me at the hotel.

I'll be there in a moment.

Go f*** yourself.

Could you cover me for a minute?

Madam, can I help you?

I'll take a 'princesse'...

A truffle.

- Just one?

Yes, one.

No, put that last one back.

And give me

two with cherries instead.

And could you put

little chocolate hearts on top?

I'm sorry. We have

no chocolate hearts this morning.

Oh, no! It's a present,

and the hearts are his favourites!

Just a moment.

I can double check.

Any little hearts?

- No, they're not ready yet.

I could give that cow

my chocolate ass.

I hate those kitschy hearts.

Give her this instead.

Give her this, OK?

Go.

Sorry.

Tasting is not allowed.

- Really?

But he only eats little hearts.

Perhaps that's all

he's been offered?

Madam, shall I add it

to your order or not?

No, no.

- That will be 30 euros.

May I help you, sir?

I don't know where to start.

- You can taste if you want.

He already did.

- Thanks. Bye, madam.

Delicious.

- Hand-made, sir.

By your hands?

- Angel's hands, sir.

What time do you finish work?

In half an hour.

Can we meet in the pub

on the corner?

OK.

What are you doing?

Go back to the factory.

She's serving me, sir.

That's not herjob,

she works in the factory.

Can I help you?

- Yes.

Good evening.

What would you like?

A red wine.

Do you usually come here?

I have a feeling

I've seen you before.

Really?

I haven't been here in a long time.

I moved to Berlin 12 years ago.

I used to come here often

with your father.

With my father?

He was my best friend.

And I was his book editor.
