Kikina presents

What is honour?

I guess we speak

about something else.

We say 'that sucks'

or 'this blows'.

We don't say 'honor'.

F***! What's the score?

- 32-38.

Go-go-go!

Why the f***

did you give him the ball?

Foul, you f***!

Why the f*** you fumble here?

Why him!

Give me the ball!

Give it to me!

You moron!

Why shoot, when you can't?

You f***ing listen to me!

Stop it, okay!

The time is up.

THE CLASS:

based on real stories

ARE YOU A FREAK?

Day One

So, Joosep,

you are our best player?

You can alone win the game!

Did you shoot for the first time

in your life?

Don't put your shirt on.

We want to see your muscles.

Hey, a**hole,

we are talking to you!

You are not going

to take a shower?

You're gonna stink in the class!

Look at me,

when l'm talking to you!

What do you want?

- No shower, basketball star?

You f***ing fag...

What did you say?

Who are you calling a fag?

Who is a fag?

If you are so straight,

why are you there with a guy?

Let's take his clothes off

and get him to the girls!

Help me with the door!

- Ladies man, don't be shy!

Open the door!

God...! Open it!

Joosep is screwing already!

Do you hear me? Open the door!

Are you a freak or something?

Let him out!

Being really cool, ah?

Are you a freak or what?

You idiots!

Why the f***

did you let Joosep out?

It was enough.

- Bullshit!

A guy who calls me a fag,

won't come out until I say so!

Then you should be at the door.

- You have a problem?

Oh no, everything is just great.

This f***ing guy

is getting really cheeky.

You won't look for it?

- Stop it...

So, what is it

with you and Roland?

What did he say?

- We won't talk about it.

Who else did you invite?

I don't know... I told Paul

that everyone could come.

Having a party again?

- Yeah. Paul didn't tell you?

No, he didn't.

Okay, then...

Shall we get some booze?

- Yeah, of course.

Let's go straight to the store,

then. Come on.

Thea, wait!

What?

- I need to talk to you.

Okay...

- Let's go somewhere else.

Well?

I was thinking...

Are you mad at me?

You guys are so cool...

Why did you bring this freak

to our dressing room?

And you must be the tough guy,

holding the door... Thanks!

Thea, are you coming?

- Yeah, one moment.

Well, l'm off.

Is it Joosep?

- Yeah.

Joosep!

Wanna come to the shooting range?

I can't.

- Stop it! Let him study!

One militarist in this family

is enough!

At least I'm trying.

The competition is next month.

- I have so much work to do.

Joosep...

Can you lend me 500?

What are you doing here?

A homepage to some kennel club.

But no dogs?

- I'll add them later.

And they are paying you nicely?

Right...

How's school?

Everything alright?

Okay...

Hi, Riina! Can we get laid?

- I don't know...

Others are not here, yet?

- No.

Thea is in the kitchen and

I am here. Who else do you need?

See, Toomas has this problem...

If there are two women

and four men, he starts drinking.

What have we here...

- Don't take anything from there.

Don't worry,

we brought the booze.

One sip, no one will notice.

My dad will see at once.

- Okay...

My god, you freak!

You startled me!

Did you get the new

Deftones' record? - Yeah.

Show it to me.

- Wanna hear?

Well... Hello!

- Hi.

What do you want for dinner?

- Don't want anything, now.

Have you eaten today?

Wait...

Are you ill?

- I really don't want anything.

Did something happen in school?

Grandma,

it is not like you think.

But what is it?

Tell me.

Well...

We had a quarrel with Thea.

Kaspar...

Maybe this Thea

is not a right girl for you?

But maybe you are too old

to understand anything?

Just shut up!

Kaspar...

Do you know that you insulted me?

Yeah, l'm sorry, grandma.

- Now what?

I'm off.

Thea invited me to a party!

By the way...

She is the right girl for me.

Kaspar, wait...

Have a nice evening.

You too.

I don't know, when l'll be back.

Hi! What took you so long?

Everybody is here already.

Hi.

I only heard just now.

Can't you dance after

your own rapping? - But I can!

Yo, man, tell you bird,

that trance is really crap.

To be honest... It really is.

Or what?

If the man said, it must be.

No point in this talk.

In my place we listen to

my records. Or Paul's.

Snoop Dogg at least

has some point in his lyrics.

You say that you understand

Snoop Dogg's rapping? - Yeah...

But the blacks in America

have really their own language,

they themselves

don't understand it.

So, rap or trance -

you don't understand sh*t.

So you can just shut up

about DJ Tiesto.

Stand here, near the wall!

I liked how you said it.

I'm sorry,

I had a really bad day.

I didn't want

to fight with you.

But you didn't, actually.

Thea! But you promised

to rub my back tonight!

Get out of here...

- I'm really in pain!

Well done, man...

Kaspar!

Why did you protect

this nerd today?

What?

I didn't protect anybody.

Then why did you let Joosep out?

It doesn't matter, let's go.

Here is the man

who protects our shitbag!

Stop it!

- The smell can stick to you too!

I didn't protect anybody.

- If Anders says, then you did.

If Anders says...

And what if I protected him?

Get it, man... Nobody in

our class protects Joosep.

Oh, right... You must know.

You're the boss.

You have problem with something?

Stop it, boys!

- F***, you don't like it?

Get out!

You f***!

Don't think that it's over!

Get out!
